Objective To survey changes and the significance of phospholipase A2(PLA2) on brain tissue of SD rat in acute pancreatitis. Methods With retrograde injection of 3% taurocholate sodium into pancreatic and biliary duct, rat model of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) was made,and it included four groups: the control group, the sham-operation group, the SAP group and the PLA2 inhibitor-treated group of SAP. Serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue were measured and the brain tissue changes were observed. Results There were no significant difference in serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue between the sham-operation and the control groups; the levels of serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue in the SAP group were higher than those in the control. In the SAP group expansion and hemorrhage of meninges, intracephalic arteriolar hyperemia, in meninges and cephalic-parenchyma infiltration of inflammatory cells and interval broaden were observed, significant differences were found between two groups.Compared with the SAP group, the level of serum amylase, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue were reduced significantly in the treatment group of SAP. Pathological damages in the treatment group were significantly reduced when compared with the SAP group. Conclusion PLA2 might play an important role in brain tissue damages in severe acute pancreatitis.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of acupuncture combined with training of the modified rehabilitation apparatus on upper limb motor function of patients with ischemic stroke.Methods86 patients with ischemic stroke were divided randomly into the treatment group ( treated by acupuncture combined with training of the rehabilitation apparatus) and the control group (treated by simple acupuncture). The upper limb motor function of two groups was evaluated by Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and after treatment.ResultsAfter 28 days treatment, scores of FMA of two groups were all raised significantly, but it was significantly greater for the treatment group than the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionIt is shown that acupuncture combined with training of the rehabilitation apparatus can improve the upper limb motor function and activity of daily living of patients with ischemic stroke.

The technical combination of acupuncture is a combination therapy based on the purpose of improving clinical efficacy. After years of clinical practice, the author has gradually summarized the dominant disease spectrum of combination therapy, especially for the treatment of difficult diseases such as male and dermatological. In the treatment of chronic prostatitis, the combination of acupuncture at "Zhibian (BL 54) through Shuidao (ST 28) therapy" is adopted. When urticaria is treated, the embedding, fire needle, needle knife and filiform needle can be combined to ensure better effect. Regarding the evidence-based acupuncture treatment research of chronic prostatitis and urticaria, it is believed that acupuncture treatment has been recommended as grade Ⅱ and Ⅰ, and there is no reliable treatment method in modern medicine. The author enumerates two cases of related diseases and explains the advantages of combination therapy.

Background In recent years,some researches show that getting younger over the diabetes mellitus (DM) was an obrious trend.But studies of early diabetic retinopathy in young people with diabetes were few.Both patients and doctors did not put enough importance on it.Objective This study was to evaluate the earlier dynamic changes of retina morphology and function caused by type 2 DM in young population.Methods A cohort study was designed.One hundred and thirty-six young patients who were initially diagnosed as type 2 DM in Cangzhou Central Hospital were included from January to March in 2010 and 91 healthy individuals with the matched age were enrolled at the same period.Glycated hemoglobin (HbAlc) level in blood was assayed yearly,and ophthalmoscope,optical coherence tomography (OCT) and visual contrast sensitivity (CS) examinations were performed to evaluate the dynamic changes of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness around optical disc,retinal function and retinal microvessels of DM patients.In addition,the correlation between RNFL thickness or CS and average HbAlc level in DM patients was assessed.This study followed Declaration of Helsinki,and written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results The levels of HbAlc in DM patients were (7.5 ±1.6) ％,(7.2 ±1.6) ％,(7.4 ±1.6) ％,(7.6±1.6)％ and (7.7 ±1.6)％ in 2010,2011,2012,2013 and 2014,respectively,and HbAlc≥7.0％ was observed in 74 patients (54.4％).The RNFL thicknesses of full optic disk and superior 1/4 quadrant of the optic disk were significantly declined in 2012,2013 and 2014 in the DM group compared with the normal control group (full disk:t =2.216,5.003,7.303;all at P ＜ 0.05.superior 1/4 quadrant:t =2.382,5.657,7.194;all at P ＜ 0.05),but no significant differences were found between them in 2010 and 2011 (all at P＞0.05).In the DM group,RNFL thicknesses of full optic disk were (99.94±10.01) μm and (96.32±10.32) μm in 2013 and 2014,which were significantly lower than (104.55±9.23) μm in 2010 (t=7.819,13.959,both at P＜0.05);the RNFL thicknesses of superior 1/4 quadrant around disk were (118.64± 13.98) μm and (115.06 ± 14.35) μm in 2013 and 2014,which were significantly lower than (127.48± 13.67) μm in 2010 (t =10.504,14.758,both at P＜0.05),However,the RNFL thicknesses were not significantly changed among the different time points in the normal control group (all at P＞0.05).In addition,the CS values of 3.0,6.0,12.0,18.0 c/d in 2013 and 2014 in the DM group were lower than those in the normal control group (all at P＜0.05),and the CS values in 2013 and 2014 were reduced in comparison with 2010 in the DM group (all at P＜0.05).Positive correlations were found between the differences of RNFL thickness or CS and the average HbAlc level in the DM group (r =0.640,F =8.991,P =0.000;r =0.541,F =7.572,P =0.000).Retinal microaneurysms were seen in two type 2 DM patients by ophthalmoscope at the end of follow-up.Conclusions The young people with type 2 DM have poor blood glucose control.The RNFLs are thinning and visual functions are declining in young type 2 DM patients with the lapse of disease course,and these retinal damages are associated with poor control of blood glucose.

Objective To observe the damage to Langerhans cells induced by UVB irradiation,and to evaluate photoprotective effect of these cells from UVB irradiation by epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG).Methods Biopsy specimens were obtained from normal adult foreskin,and epidermal cells were isolated.Density gradient centrifugation and magnetic cell sorting were used simultaneously to purify Langerhans cells from the cell suspension.These cells were then divided into three groups,control (no ir- radiation or EGCG treatment),UVB (irradiation) and EGCG (irradiation+ECCG treatment) groups. The cells in the UVB and EGCG group were irradiated by UVB (30 mJ/cm~2).After the irradiation,the U- VB group was incubated with RPMI-1640 containing 10% bovine serum for 4 hours,while the EGCG group with the same medium containing 200?g/mL of EGCG for 4 hours.Another four hours after the treatment, the cells were collected for the detection of apoptosis rate by propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry. Results Exposure to UVB (30 mJ/cm~2) significantly increased the apoptotic rate of Langerhans cells.The apoptotic rate in EGCG group was significantly lower than that in the UVB group,but was higher than that in the control group.Conclusion Rate of apoptosis of Langerhans cells could be increased by UVB irradia- tion,while EGCG could prevent the increase of apoptosis.

Objective To find out a new treatment method for advanced pancreatic carcinoma. Methods Twenty-nine patients with advanced pancreatic carcinoma and liver metastases were randomly divided into 2 groups.Group A (n=11) underwent bilio-enterostomy and/or gastro-enterostomy combined with systemic chemotherapy after operation;Group B(n=18) underwent bilio-enterostomy and/or gastro-enterostomy combined with peripancreatic arterial ligation and arterial infusion regional chemotherapy.The alleviation of clinical symptom,the change of carcinoma volume by BUS and CT scan,survival period and serum CEA were observed in two groups. Results The symptoms were alleviated apparently in most cases in Group B;BUS and CT scan showed that the tumor volume decreased apparently in Group B;The response rate was 67.7% in Group B,and 18.2% in Group A,respectively(P＜0.01);the mean survival period was (4.8±0.6) months in Group A,and (12.5±1.2) months in Group B,respectively(P＜0.01),there was significant difference between the two groups.The decrease of serum CEA was 54% in Group A and 60% in Group B,but the difference was not significant(P＞0.05). Conclusion Peripancreatic arterial ligation combined with arterial infusion regional chmotherapy is believed to be effective against both pancreatic carcinoma and liver metastases,and it can alleviate the clinical symptoms,postpone the growth speed of tumor,and prolong the survival period.
