Severe acute pancreatitis is the systemic inflammatory reaction caused by the preternatural activation of trypsogen. The necrotizing pancrea as the antigen or stimulant, activiates immunocyte and in-flammatory cell to release a great deal of cytokines, including proinflammatery factor and anti-inflammatory factor. The former aggravates the damage of constitution, the latter could antigonize the damage of anti-inflam-matory factor. The unbalance of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines ,leads to the occurrence of systemic in-flammatory syndrome, even the mutiple organ failure.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy of cetuximab combined with chemotherapeutics versus chemo-therapeutics alone in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer,and provide evidenced-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from Medline,PubMed,EMBase,CJFD,VIP,WanFang database and Cochrane Library,randomized con-trolled trials(RCT)about the efficacy of cetuximab combined with chemotherapeutics(test group)versus chemotherapeutics alone (control group) in the treatment of colorectal cancer were collected. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.2 software after data extract and quality assessment. RESULTS:A total of 12 RCTs were included,involving 8 514 patients. Results of Me-ta-analysis showed progression free survival in test group was significantly longer than control group,the difference was statistical-ly significant [HR=0.87,95%CI(0.79,0.95),P=0.002];compared with control group,there were no significant differences in the disease control rate[OR=1.06,95%CI(0.88,1.27),P=0.54] and overall survival[HR=0.92,95%CI(0.85,1.00),P=0.05] in test group. Results of subgroup analysis showed cetuximeb could significantly prolong the progression free survival of KRAS wild-type patients,the difference was statistically significant[HR=0.80,95%CI(0.66,0.98),P=0.03]. CONCLUSIONS:Compared with che-motherapeutics alone,chemotherapeutics combined with cetuximab can significantly prolong the progression free survival of pa-tients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Due to the limits of quality and sample size,more strict designed,long-term follow-up of large scale RCTs are needed for the further verification of the conclusion.

Objective To explore the emergent measures for hematomyelia during microendoscopic discectomy (MED). Methods Different measures, such as electrocoagulation, compression, irrigation, or hemostatic administration, were directed against different types of hematomyelia during MED. Results No conversions to open surgery for hematomyelia were required in all the 287 cases in the study. A follow-up for 4~30 months (mean, 17 months) was carried out. According to the MacNab criteria, excellent results were achieved in 219 cases, good results in 59 cases, fair in 7, and poor in 2. Conclusions Measures for hematomyelia during MED include the decrease of abdominal pressure, strict hemostatic performance, keeping off varicose veins when the protruded intervertebral disc is resected, compression by using gelfoam or styptic cotton, and intravenous administration of thrombin. These measures can effectively improve the surgical safety and the curative effect.

Aim To investigate the effects of paeonol on lipopolysaccharide ( LPS) and adenosine 5′-triphos-phate ( ATP) induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in primary rat microglia and the mechanisms responsi-ble for this anti-inflammatory effects. Methods Pri-mary rat microglia were identified immunohistochemi-cally using the cluster of differentiation 11 b ( CD11 b ) antibody. Proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β was deter-mined by ELISA. Western blot was performed to ob-serve the protein expression of NLRP3 , ASC and caspase-1 in cultured primary rat microglia. The level of intracellular reactive oxygen species ( ROS) was mo-nitored by using the fluorescent probe 2′, 7′-dichlo-rofluorescein diacetate ( DCFH-DA ) . Results LPS (0. 5 mg · L-1 )/ATP ( 5 mmol · L-1 ) significantly increased intracellular ROS level and IL-1β secretion and upregulated NLRP3 , ASC and caspase-1 protein expression in primary rat microglia. Paeonol signifi-cantly decreased intracellular ROS level and IL-1β se-cretion, and inhibited LPS/ATP induced overexpres-sion of NLRP3 , ASC and caspase-1 in cultured primary rat microglia. Conclusion Paeonol can inhibit LPS/ATP induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in pri-mary rat microglia, and this inhibitory effect may be through the suppression of intracellular ROS.

It was found that the proliferation of mice L7712 leukemic cells in vitro was markedly inhibited by 5 mg/L GP1 and VP10 The inhib itory rate increased with the incubation time. At a concentration of 0 .04-20mg/L, the mitotic index ( MI ) of GP1 group increased, but the MI of VP16 group decreased. After L7712 cells were treated with GP, 5 mg/L for 12 h the MI reached the highest point which was 8 times as high as that of the control, at the same time, the MI of VP16 ( 5 mg/L) group was about one-third of that of the control. The result of the combination of GP1 with VP16 showed that VP16 could antagonize the effect of GP on MI of L7712 cells. After being treated by GP1 and VP18 for 24 h, serious damage of L7712 cells could be observed. Both drugs inhibited the incorporation of (3H) TdR into DNA of S180, ascitic hepatoma (AH), L1210 and L7712 cells incubated for 24 h. It was further observed that S180 and L7712 cells were more sensitive than other cells to both drugs.

Objective To analyze the correlation between the polymorphism of PTPN22 gene (R620W and R263Q sites)and pulmonary tuberculosis(TB)in Chinese Han population and to investigate the environmental factors associated with pulmonary TB. Methods A case-control study was conducted on 235 patients with pulmonary TB and 251 healthy subjects. The single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNP)of PTPN22 gene at R620W and R263Q sites were detected by the assay of polymerase chain reaction and re-striction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). A questionnaire was designed to gather information about tuberculosis-associated environmental factors. Univariate and multivariate logistic analysis were con-ducted. Results Genotype frequencies of PTPN22 R620W(C1858T)SNP were 233(99. 15% ,CC),2 (0. 85% ,CT),0(0% ,TT)in patients with pulmonary TB and 240(95. 62% ,CC),11(4. 38% ,CT), 0(0% ,TT)in healthy subjects. There was a difference with the distribution of PTPN22 C1858T allele be-tween patients with pulmonary TB and healthy subjects[0. 43% vs 2. 19% ,P = 0. 01,odds ratio(OR)=0. 19,95% confidence interval(CI)= 0. 07-0. 35]. Genotype frequencies of PTPN22 R263Q(G788A) were 218(92. 77% ,GG),17(7. 31% ,GA),0(0% ,AA)in patients with pulmonary TB and 248 (98. 71% ,GG),3(1. 29% ,GA),0(0% ,AA)in healthy subjects. The frequencies of G788A allele in patients with pulmonary TB were higher than those in healthy subjects(3. 62% vs 0. 60% ,P﹤0. 01,OR=6. 03,95% CI=2. 12-18. 38). Conclusion The results of this study suggested that the R263Q GG geno-type of PTPN22 gene was associated with the susceptibility to TB in Chinese Han population.

Objective To study the anatomy of the caudate lobe and to apply the knowledge in caudate lobe resection and piggyback liver transplantation. Methods Dissection of the caudate lobe was carried out in 35 fresh adult livers. Before dissection, the portal venous system was injected with barium sulfate emulsion to show the portal branches of the caudate lobe. Results The caudate lobe was shown to consiste of 3 portions: (1) the Spigelian lobe, the paracaval portion and the caudate process. The Spigelian lobe was pyramidal in shape with 3 faces, a peak and a base; (2) the paracaval portion was situated to the right and to the front of the vena cava; (3) the caudal process was the liver parenchyma between the hepatic hilum and the anterior aspect of the vena cava. Conclusions The entire caudate lobe is situated at the posterior part of the liver and it surrounds the vena cava. The key point in resecting the entire caudate lobe or in performing a piggyback liver transplantation is adequate mobilization and division of all the outflowing veins of the caudate lobe.
