Purpose:To study the secretion and gene expression of Angiogenesis factors in the patients with CML and study the effect of Angiogenesis in the occurrence and development of CML. Methods:Concentration of VEGF in peripheral blood was determined by using ELISA. Myeloid tissue was extracted from all CML cases and ITP patients to detect MVD by using CD34 labelling. At the same time the level of VEGF,b-FGF were detected by using RT-PCR in both peripheral blood and myeloid cells.Results:Our results showed that the concentration of VEGF was obviously higher in the peripheral blood of CML patients(177.53?153.45 pg/ml) than in those of control group(73.12?19.82 pg/ml). The gene expression of VEGF and b-FGF were both higher than those of control group. The difference has statistical significance(P

Objective To compare three methods for detecting extend-spectrum ?-latamases (ESBL s) and investigate current resistance of ESBL s.Methods 538 isolates of Enterobacter were detected by VITEK-AMS, compound piece type confirm test, and double-disk synergy test.Results 20.1% (108/538) was found to be ESBL s positive by VITCK-AMS. The positive rate of ceftaxime/clavulanic acid and ceftaxime compound pieces test was 19.5% (105/538). The positive rate of double-disk synergy test was 13.0%. The resistant rate of 12 antibiotics to ESBL s positive strains was significantly higher than ESBL s negative strains.Conclusions It is important to select the proper and rapid method to detect ESBL s in time.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of Boschniakia rossica extract on free radicals in the brain of D-galactose induced senile rats. METHODS: Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group (48 mg.kg(-1).d(-1) D-galactose, SC), Boschniakia rossica group (100, 150, 200 mg/kg ig and 48 mg.kg(-1).d(-1) D-galactose, SC). After 40 days, the activities of SOD, MAO and the content of MDA were measured with colorimetric method, and the histological changes were synchronously observed by electronic microscope. RESULTS: Boschniakia rossica extract significantly increased the SOD activity, decreased the MDA content, and inhibited the MAO activity in the brain tissue. It was observed under microscope that Boschniakia rossica extract could retrieve the degeneration of mitochondrion. CONCLUSION: Boschniakia rossica extract can clear the free radicals for D-galactose induced senile rats.

Objective To evaluate a method of fast detection of the hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) in peripheral blood samples and explore for an appropriate cutoff value in prediction of adequate CD34+ cell in apheresis concentrate.Methods Peripheral blood samples and apheresis concentrate samples were collected from 27 auto-PBSCT patients receiving chemotherapy plus G-CSF mobilization (chemo group) and 17 patients receiving G-CSF alone (non-chemo group).CD34+ cell counts were determined by flow cytometry according to ISHAGE guideline and HPC counts were detected using Sysmex XE-2100 automatic hemocyte analyzer.The correlation between HPC and CD34+ cell counts in peripheral blood samples and apheresis concentrates were analyzed.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was used to determine the cutoff value in prediction of adequate CD34+ cell in apheresis concentrate.Results CD34+ cell counts in peripheral blood samples can be estimated by HPC counts (r =0.711,P =0.000,r =0.656,P =0.004).CD34+ cell counts =-0.829+0.648×HPC counts (in chemo group) or 45.033+0.460×HPC counts (in non-chemo group).HPC counts in the peripheral blood of auto-PBSCT patients were highly correlated with the CD34+ cell yield (r =0.602,P =0.001),CD34+ cell counts =1.106+0.046×HPC counts.When HPC in peripheral blood was ≥85/μl,the prediction of adequate CD34+ cells in the yield of apheresis (≥5×106/kg body weight) would have a sensitivity of 78 ％ and a specifity of 82 ％.Conclusion HPC counts in peripheral blood samples in auto-PBSCT patients can be used to determine the optimal time of apheresis and be used as a good marker to predict the stem cell in the yield.

Background and purpose:Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) is playing an increasingly important role in the diagnosis, therapy and follow-up of lymphoma patients. This study aimed to explore clinical and pathological features and bone marrow infiltration status in lymphoma patients with diffused high bone marrow glucose uptake on18F-FDG PET/CT.Methods:It was a retrospective study. Bone marrow infiltration status, pathological and clinical data from 62 cases of pathologically diagnosed lymphoma and diffused high bone marrow glucose uptake were analyzed.Results:Distribution of histopathological subtype in those cases was in accordance with that in previously reported Chinese lymphoma patients. Significant difference was demonstrated in standard uptake value (SUV) between pa-tients with aggressive and indolent histopathological subtypes (8.43vs 5.38,P=0.048), patients with and without B symp-toms (8.30vs 5.72,P=0.033), and patients with and without bone marrow infiltration (8.78vs 6.96,P=0.020). 32 patients were diagnosed as “bone marrow infiltration” by bone marrow biopsy. There was significant difference in histopathologi-cal subtype distribution between patients with and without bone marrow infiltration (P=0.001). In patients with bone marrow infiltration, there were higher proportions of mantle cell lymphoma, nodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma, Burkitt’s lym-phoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma. In contrast, patients without bone marrow infiltration suffered more from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, peripheral T cell lymphoma, enteropathic T cell lymphoma and extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (nasal type). False positive results in bone marrow glucose uptake may be caused by fever or anemia.Conclusion:Diffused high bone marrow glucose uptake on18F-FDG PET/CT should be evaluated in combination with the uptake values, clinical features and histological subtypes, to minimize the misdiagnosis and to better guide staging and therapy of lymphoma.

Nucleobindin2protein(NUCB2)isanewlydiscoveredneuropeptideprecursorprotein, which has a comprehensive cytology function and is expressed in the hypothalamus nucleus and many peripheral tissues.There aren′t many studies about its signaling pathway,where neuroendocrine regulation,cell survival growth,tumor suppressor,cytokine secretion were found to involve in it.Besides,it has also been confirmed that breast cancer,lung cancer,ovarian cancer and prostate cancer are closely related to NUCB2.Therefore, several downstream pathways of NUCB2 may be related to the formation and progression of tumor.Further stud-ies are still needed to clarify the signal pathways of NUCB2 to provide a reliable basis for clinical cancer preven-tion.

The peripheral tissues mainly clear the metabolites through lymphatic system to maintain the homeostasis.In recent years,it has been found that there is a corresponding structure in the brain,namely the glymphatic system,which consists of multiple components,including the para-arterial influx of fluids,the convective bulk of interstitial fluid flow facilitated by aquaporin 4 and the paravenous efflux of fluids;the glymphatic system plays an important role in the removal of metabolites.This article will describe its origin,composition,driving mechanisms and influencing factors,and introduce its corresponding role in the pathological process of brain diseases such as Alzheimer's disease,Parkinson's disease and hydrocephalus.

Objective:To investigate the application value of cystic plate approach (CPA) for extrahepatic right hepatic pedicle dissection in minimally invasive anatomical hepatectomy (MIALR).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 42 patients with primary liver cancer who underwent laparoscopic right hemi-hepatectomy in Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University from August 2020 to August 2022 were collected. There were 36 males and 6 females, aged (55±13)years. Of the 42 patients, 25 cases undergoing CPA for extrahepatic right hepatic pedicle dissection were divided into the CPA group, and 17 cases undergoing traditional approach for extrahepatic right hepatic pedicle dissection were divided into the traditional approach group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( IQR), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann?Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi?square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the non‐parameter rank sum test. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All patients in the two groups underwent laparoscopic right hemi-hepatectomy successfully, with the surgical margin as negative. The operative time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, time of dissection of the targeted hepatic pedicle, cases undergoing dissection of the trunk of right anterior hepatic pedicle and its operation time, cases undergoing dissection of the trunk of right posterior hepatic pedicle and its operation time, cases with hepatic pedicle injury, cases with hepatic tissue injury, cases with dissection space as large and small were 150.00(130.00)minutes, 100.00(100.00)mL, 472.00(201.00)seconds, 10 and 366.00(94.75)seconds, 9 and 564.00(138.50)seconds, 2, 2, 25, 0 in patients of the CPA group, versus 140.00(113.00)minutes, 100.00(125.00)mL, 670.00(107.00)seconds, 8 and 663.00(136.00)seconds, 7 and 783.00(189.00)seconds, 8, 5, 2, 19 in patients of the traditional approach group.

Objective:To review our clinical experience on total pancreatectomy in treatment of pancreatic diseases.Methods:The clinical data of 25 patients with pancreatic diseases who underwent total pancreatectomy at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from February 2016 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The data on general information, surgical methods, postoperative complications, changes in postoperative pancreatic endocrine and exocrine functions and quality of life were analyzed.Results:There were 16 males and 9 females, aged (60.9±9.4) years. Planned selective surgery was carried out in 16 patients while unplanned operations in 9 patients. There were 15 patients with pancreatic neoplasms with 4 patients who received neoadjuvant or conversion therapy, 6 patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, 3 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 1 patient with pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma. The total postoperative complication rate was 36% (9/25). One patient died in the perioperative period, and one patient underwent a second operation. After 6 months of operation, 2 of 24 patients had died. The remaining patients had a fasting blood sugar of (8.9±1.6) mmol/L, with an insulin dosage of (30.7±10.6) U/d. The average dosage of trypsin was (1.1±0.3) g/d. The quality of life score reached or exceeded the preoperative levels.Conclusions:Total pancreatectomy was safe and feasible for some pancreatic diseases. For patients with pancreatic cancer, its long-term oncological outcomes need further studies.
