Objective To study the clinical effects of Ditan Xingnao Chengqi soup for treatment of patients with sepsis brain dysfunction. Methods Sixty-two cases of sepsis brain dysfunction were divided into treatment group(32 cases)and control group(30 cases)according to random digits table. Both groups received general clinical treatment,while the treatment group additionally accepted Ditan Xingnao Chengqi soup through nasal feeding. The changes of C-reactive protein(CRP)of two groups before treatment and after treatment for 12,24,48,72 hours and 1 week were observed. Besides,the Glasgow Outcome Scale(GOS)was used to assess the curative effect of two groups, and its clinical significance was judged. Meanwhile,the hospitalization costs,the times staying in hospital and total effective rates of the two groups after treatment were observed. In addition,cost-effectiveness analysis was carried out. Results With the extension of therapeutic time,the levels of CRP(mg/L)in the two groups were reduced effectively in comparison with those before treatment,and the change was more obvious in the treatment group;after treatment for 24 hours,the difference in the level of CRP between the two groups began to be statistically significant(106.5±22.3 vs. 201.6±25.4,P<0.05). The GOS of two groups after treatment had been increased markedly in comparison to that before treatment,and the change was more obvious in treatment group(72 hours:10.34±0.76 vs. 7.34±0.48,1 week:13.16±0.86 vs. 9.56±0.64,both P<0.05). Hospitalization costs(yuan)of treatment group in intensive care unit (ICU)was lower than that in control group(43276.16±1844.23 vs. 51347.75±2011.06,P<0.05),and the duration of staying(day)in ICU of treatment group was shorter than that in control group(15.11±2.25 vs. 20.30±2.97,P<0.05). The total effective rate of treatment group was higher than that of control group,but the difference had no statistical significance(87.5%vs. 60.0%,P>0.05).The ratio of cose effectiveness analysis in treatment group was smaller than that of control group(497.42 vs. 855.80,P<0.05). Conclusions Ditan Xingnao Chengqi soup has a relatively good effect on antagonizing inflammatory factors,controlling excessive inflammatory response and improving disturbance of consciousness. The early intervention with this agent for a patient with sepsis cognitive impairment can control the disease situation,improve the patient's prognosis and reduce his or her hospitalization costs.

Objective To investigate the regularity and predictors of weight loss during concurrent chemo-radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 82 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma ,with average age of 45 years ,who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. Paired t-test was used to analyze the weight loss pattern during chemoradiotherapy. The Spearman′s rank correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between high weight loss(HWL)and the clinical factors. Results The paired t-test showed that the weight of the patients decreased continuously every week during chemoradiotherapy(P < 0.05),and the value dropped most significantly during the 4th week. Among these 82 patients,32 were determined as HWL(weight loss > 10%). Spearman′s rank correlation analysis showed that HWL was associated with older age,female,higher T and TNM stage,3D-CRT technology,the higher dose of radiotherapy in nasopharynx and in neck lymph node,and decreases of leukopenia and hemoglobin over degree Ⅱ(P<0.05). Conlousions Weight may decrease continuously every week during chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Age,gender,T stage,TNM stage,radio-therapy dose,and leukopenia and hemoglobin decreases may be predictors for weight loss degree during concurrent chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.

Objective To investigate the present status of early diagnosis and misdiagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods A total of 50 patients diagnosed as NPC were recruited at the department of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in our hospital. The time from that patients felt discomfort to be diagnosed of NPC was determined bydifferent symptoms and signs. Furthermore , the status of misdiagnosis were also investigated. The spearmans rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between the cancer stage and the time of confirmeddiagnosis , and the relationship between the rate of misdiagnosed and the rank of the hospital they visited. The χ2 test was then used to analyze the cancer stage with the time when they were diagnosed. Results Results indicated that the time when patients were diagnosed significantly correlated with pTNM stage (P < 0.05). Patients diagnosed in one month were most at stage Ⅱ, diagnosed in six months were stage III, and diagnosed after twelve months were stage Ⅳ(P < 0.05). Furthermore, we found that the rate of misdiagnosis of NPC was 12%. Moreover,the misdiagnosed rate was associated with the rank of the hospital patients visited. Discussion In conclusion , the present status of the early diagnosis of NPC is not optimistic. Most of the patients with NPC were misdiagnosed in basic medical institutions , especially in town or village health center. Thus, it is important to popularize the health knowledge about the secondary prevention of NPC and train the doctor in basic medical institutions.

Objective To identify the role of miR-124 in regulating the radiosensitivity and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods Transient transfection of cells with miR-124 mimic or inhibitor was performed and wound-healing assay was used to investigate the role of miR-124 in the EMT of NPC. The apoptosis affected by miR-124 was also measured after irradiation , followed by investigating the cell proliferation by EdU assay. Finally , proteins of Akt and ERK associated with EMT and radiosensitivity, were measured by western blot. Results The migration index from NPC cell line indicated that miR-124 repressed the EMT. The results from caspase-3 activity assay showed that caspase-3 activity after irradiation significantly increased in miR-124 mimic group compared with the control group (P < 0.01). It was also confirmed that irradiation led to a higher percentage of apoptosis in miR-124 group compared with the control group in NPC cells. Cell proliferation after irradiation was significantly decreased in MiR-124 group as compared with control group . MiR-124 inhibited the protein expression of p-Akt . Conclusion MiR-124 may repress the EMT and decrease radio-resistance of NPC via p-Akt signaling pathway , which may provide a new insight into radio-resistance in NPC.
