OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical short-term efficacy and safety of brucea javanica oil injection combined with oxaliplatin and xeloda in the treatment of elderly patients with advanced gastric cancer. METHODS:82 elderly patients with ad-vanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into control group and observation group. Control group was treated with Oxaliplatin injection 130 mg/m2 added into 5% Glucose injection 250 ml for 2 h,iv,d1+Xeloda tablets 1 000 mg/m2,orally,twice a day, d1-14;based on the treatment of control group,observation group was additionally treated with 10% Brucea javanica oil injection 30 ml added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 250 ml,iv,once a day,d1-14. 21 days were as a treatment course,and it lasted 3 courses. The short-term efficacy,life quality and toxicity reactions were evaluated in 2 groups. RESULTS:The short-term efficacy in observation group was significantly higher than control group,life quality was significantly better than control group,and the in-cidences of leucopenia and liver damage were significantly lower than control group(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Brucea javanica oil injection combined with oxaliplatin and xeloda has better efficacy than oxaliplatin combined with xeloda in the treatment of elder-ly patients with advanced gastric cancer,with good safety.

Objective　To investigate the mechanisms of Pinacidil prec onditioning protection of hemorrhagic shock rats. 　Methods　The rats were divided into 3 groups: a normal group ( n=10), a control group (n=40) and a preconditioning group (n=40). Pinacidil preconditio ning was processed 24 h before making the hemorrhagic shock model. The cPLA 2 expression in myocardium was observed at different time points with western blot; Pinacidil preconditioning was processed 24, 48 and 72 h before making th e hemorrhagic shock model to observe hsp70 expression in myocardium and liver tissue with western blot. 　Results　Pinacidil preconditioning could increase hsp70 expres sion and decrease cPLA2 expression. 　Conclusions　Pinacidil preconditioning protects "shock cell" by inducing hsp70 overexpression and inhibiting cPLA2 expression, which is re sponsible for protecting myocardial and liver tissues of the hemorrhagic shock rats.

Objective: To determine the optimal manipulation parameters in Liu's back tuina therapy for remission-stage cough variant asthma (CVA) in kids. Methods: A 5-factor 3-level L18(37) orthogonal design was adopted. The experimental factors and levels were selected: A, the number of times of Rou-kneading Feishu (BL 13); B, the frequency of Rou-kneading Feishu (BL 13); C, the number of times of Tui-pushing in a '介'-like pattern; D, the frequency of Tui-pushing in a '介'-like pattern; E, the intensity of red color after Ca-scrubbing Feishu (BL 13) with salt. A1, A2 and A3 stood for 10 times, 20 times and 30 times, respectively; B1, B2 and B3 stood for 200 times/min, 240 times/min and 280 times/min, respectively; C1, C2 and C3 stood for 50 times, 75 times and 100 times, respectively; D1, D2 and D3 stood for 150 times/min, 175 times/min and 200 times/min, respectively; E1, E2 and E3 stood for pinkish, bright red and dark red, respectively. A total of 108 kids with CVA in remission stage were divided into 18 groups using the random number table method, with 6 cases in each group. Changes in the cough score and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) level were observed after 15-day treatment. Results: The cough score and FENO level changed significantly in every group after treatment (all P<0.01). By the effect in improving cough score, the factors were listed as D, B, A, C and E in descending order; the most optimal manipulation parameter combination was group 17 (A3B2C1D3E1); the second optimal parameter combinations were group 7 (A3B1C2D1E3), group 13 (A2B1C2D3E1) and group 14 (A2B2C3D1E2). Regarding the effect in down-regulating the level of FENO, the factors were listed as C, A, E, B and D in descending order; the most optimal manipulation parameter combination was group 13 (A2B1C2D3E1); the second optimal parameter combinations were group 18 (A3B3C2D1E2), group 16 (A3B1C3D2E3) and group 14 (A2B2C3D1E2).Conclusion: Two most effective manipulation parameter combinations were selected out of 18 different parameter combinations in Liu's back tuina therapy for remission-stage CVA in kids. Doctors can choose an appropriate manipulation based on the symptom features of the disease.

Objective To demonstrate the superiority and feasibility of using bioluminescent image to monitor the islet graft after islet transplantation.Methods Diabetic models were established by intraperitoneal injection of streptomycin into mature male C57BL/6 mice.Islets were harvested from the pancreas of C57BL/6 and Bclb/c mice by digestion and purification,and transfected with Lueiferase gene.The mouse diabetic models were divided into iso-transplantaion group (n=20) and allo-transplantation group (n=7).The islets of C57BL/6 were transplanted into iso-transplantaion mice with different doses (10,50,110 and 200,n=5 in every dose),and Bclb/c mouse islets were transplanted into allo-transplantation group.The islets were transplanted into the subcutaneous fat tis- sue near left scapula.The receptor mice were scanned with CCD camera to get bioluminescent images at different scheduled time points,and the changes in random blood glucose of allo-transplantation group were observed.Results On day 6 after transplantation,the scanning image showed that the pi- xel intensity from the region of interest (ROI) was increased with the increased number of islet grafts and they had a positive correlation.The random blood glucose was reduced to the normal level in the first 2 days,and then increased again to the diabetic level on 11 days averagely,while pixel intensity from the ROI reached the peak on day 6-7,and then reduced rapidly after islet transplantation in allo- transplantation group.The beginning of pixel intensity reduction occurred on day (6.14?0.90), while that of the random blood glucose raise occurred on day (10.00?0.82) after transplantation,and the former alteration occurred obviously earlier than the latter (P

Objective To investigate effect of Qishen-Qinggan decoction on proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma cellline SMMC-7721.Methods SMMC-7721 cells were cultivated in vitro.Logarithmic growth phase cells were divided into a drug intervention group and a control group.SMMC-7721 cells were treated with Qishen-Qinggan decoction of 0.135、0.27、0.54、1.08、2.16 g/ml respectively for 12、24、48 hours in the drug intervention group while the control group remained untreated.The inhibition rate of SMMC-7721 cells were detected by MTT assay,cell apoptotic rate were measured by flow cytometry analysis.Results Qishen-Qinggan decoction of 0.135,0.27,0.54,1.08,2.16 g/ml had a significantly inhibitory effect on SMMC-7721 cells in a dose and time dependent manner.OD values of 12 hours were 0.89±0.05,0.85±0.05,0.80±0.06,0.78± 0.02,0.69±0.07,OD values of 24 hours were 0.77±0.07,0.74±0.07,0.59±0.07,0.50±0.09,0.39±0.08,OD values of 48 hours were 0.78±0.05,0.61±0.08,0.44±0.10,0.39±0.08,0.34±0.07 respectively.Each drug intervention group had significant difference compared with control group.Qishen-Qinggan decoction of 0.27,0.54 g/ml could induce apoptosis of SMMC-7721 were 11.19 ± 2.23,15.69 ± 2.51,compared with control group of 1.41 ± 0.22.Apoptotic rates of Qishen-Qinggan decoction of 1.08 g/ml had extremely significant difference with the control group (41.83 ± 7.11 vs 1.41 ± 0.22).Conclusion Qishen-Qinggan decoction could inhibit the proliferation of SMMC-7721 cells probably by inducing cell apoptosis.
