Journal of Jilin University(Medicine Edition) 2014;(4):892-894
Objective To observe the incidence of acute radiation pneumonitis (RP)after intensity modulated radiation therapy,and to explore the relationship between the incidence of RP and the parameters from dose-volume histogram (DVH)in the patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods By Pinnacle 7.6c TPS, 46 patients with NSCLC were treated by IMRT.The values of the percentages of the lung volumes receieved 5, 10,20,and 30 Gy radition to the total lung volumes (V5 ,V10 ,V20 ,V30 )and mean lung dose (MLD)were observed,and its correlation with acute RP was analyzed.Results The incidence of acute RP of the patients with NSCLC was 37.0% (17/46),among then there were 29 cases (63.0%)of Grade 0 (non-pneumonitis group), 12 cases (26.1%)of Grade 1,5 cases (10.9%)of Grade 2,and there were no Grade 4 and 5 RP.The values of V5,V10,V20,V30,and MLD of lung were 53.34 %,43.12%,24.15%,15.36 %,and 16.02 Gy.The values of V5,V10,V20,V30,and MLD in pneumonitis group were 57.81%,48.91%,31.34%,17.83%, 21.71 Gy,and they were 49. 81%,39.78%,21.82%,13.12%,and 13.71 Gy in non-pneumonitis group, there were significant differences between two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion The intensity modulated radiation therapy in treatment of NSCLC can protect the lung tissue,and the parameters of DVH such as V5 ,V10 ,V20 , V30 and MLD can predict the occurrence of RP.

3.The immunological and clinical significance of IgM in primary biliary cirrhosis
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2013;(3):201-205
Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a slowly progressive autoimmune disease of the liver.Studies on the pathphysiology of this disease have demonstrated the immune-mediated destruction of the intrahepatic bile ducts and portal infammation seem to be the result of an intense autoimmune response directed against the autoantigens located in the biliary epithelium.Immunologically,PBC is characterized by the presense of antimitochodrial antibodies,elevated serum IgM and lymphoid infiltration in the portal tract.Indeed,the relationships between IgM and PBC have been a major focus of research on its pathphysiology,which lead to an increased understanding of the abnormal immune responses involved in PBC.This review summarizes data on the biological and clinical significance of Hyper-IgM in PBC,and highlights the potential role of IgM for the diagnosis and treatment of PBC.

China Pharmacy 1991;0(06):-
OBJECTIVE: To explore the regularity and characteristics of ADR induced by levofloxacin. METHODS: Retrieved from, CHKD of CNKI and Wanfang database, a total of 205 literatures about levofloxacin-induced ADR were collected and analyzed statistically in respect of patients’ gender, age, case history, administration route, clinical manifestation and result of treatment. RESULTS: 483 cases(92.9%) were given levofloxacin intravenously in total of 520 ADR cases. 156 cases were characterized with lesion of skin and its appendants (30.0%), followed by lesion of nervous system (n=133, 25.6%), lesion of cardiovascular system (n=65, 12.5%) and anaphylactic shock (n=45, 8.7%). The earliest ADR occurred within 2 min after administration while the latest occurred in 34 d after administration. 514 cases recovered when drug withdrawal or treatment were taken. However, there were 2 cases of sequelae, 4 cases of death and 62 cases of unexpected serious ADRs. CONCLUSION:ADRs induced by levofloxacin present complicated and various symptoms caused by several factors in which the most serious result in death. Clinical doctors should pay more attention to levofloxacin-induced ADRs.

Objective To investigate the occurrence of intraoperative occupational exposure to blood among sur-geons in a hospital,so as to make effective precaution measures.Methods Combined with questionnaires,the mo-nitoring data of occupational exposure to blood among surgeons from June 2011 to June 2013 were analyzed statisti-cally.Results A total of 49 surgeons sustained 115 times of occupational exposure to blood,including 42 times (36.52%)in general surgery surgeons,36 (31 .30%)in orthopedic surgeons,31 (26.96%)in obstetrics and gyne-cology surgeons,and 6(5.22%)in urinary surgery surgeons.The main occupational exposure were sharp injuries (n=71 ,61 .74%),blood and body fluid splashing were 44 times (38.26%);the top two exposed sites were hands (49.57%)and faces (17.39%).88.70% of exposed cases were given emergent treatment,and 55.65% of exposed cases were reported.The follow-up found no surgeons were infected after the prompt and correct treatment. Conclusion Surgeons are at high risk of occupational exposure.Occupational precaution should be strengthened, occupational awareness and ability of HCWs should be enhanced,and post-exposure treatment should be improved.

Objective To study the variations of microorganism indexes of barrelled purified water during its preservation period of 90 days. Methods The total count of bacteria, the mould and yeast count, the conductance rate and pH value in water samples collected from the fresh products of barrelled purified water at the same day of production and then at the 5th, 10th, 20th, 40th, 60th and 90th days after the production date respectively were determined. Results The total count of bacteria of barrelled purified water reached peak at the 5th and 20th days during the observed preservation periods, and then decreased gradually. No significant variations of mould and yeast count, decrease of pH value (6.3 to 6.0), increase of conductance rate (4.2 to 5.8 ?s/cm) were observed in the barrelled purified water during the whole 90_day preservation period. Conclusion The total count of bacteria of barrelled purified water was fluctuated obviously in the observation period. A suggestion was made that the time limit of quality guarantee for preservation period of barrelled purified water must be within 30 days.

Objective To investigate the repair and reconstruction mechanism of stromal cell derived factor-1(SDF-1) on rat abdominal aorta grafts.Methods Male Sprague-Darley rats received abdominal aorta grafts from male Wistar abdominal arteries.Immunohistochemical staining(IHC) was performed to detect the SDF-1 expression.The expression of CXCR4,the receptor of SDF-1,was demonstrated by RT-PCR.(Results) SDF-1 was expressed on the endothelium all the time during the course of the abdominal aorta grafts in the bodies of recipients.Furthermore,it was found that there was a significant relationship between the expression of SDF-1 on the endothelia and the thickness of the neointima of the rat abdominal aorta grafts.On the other hand,CXCR4 was detected within the abdominal aorta grafts.Conclusions Stem cells could be mobilized by SDF-1 to the abdominal aorta grafts and differentiated into smooth-muscle like cells.Furthermore,SDF-1 is predictive of grafts arteriosclerosis and the subsequent development of chronic graft dysfunction(CGD).

Objective To analyse the microvascular density(MVD) and CD44v6 expression in uterine cervical squamous carcinoma to evaluate their clinical significance. Methods Immunohistochemical staining (LSAB method) by using antibodies against CD 34 and CD44v6 was performed on archival specimens of 50 cases of human uterine cervical squamous carcinoma and 10 cases of normal cervical tissue. Results MVD was greater in metastatic tumors than that in nonmetastatic tumors and normal control. The expression of CD44v6 was higher in metastatic tumors than that in nonmetastatic tumors and normal control. MVD and CD44v6 expressions were significantly related to lymph node metastasis(P
