Objective: To study the antioxidative and hepatoprotective activities of low molecular fucoidan oligosaccharides(LMFO) from Laminaria japonica in mice.Methods: Mice were pretreated with LMFO(50?100?150 mg/kg ig respectively, 10 days),and then 0.2 % CCl 4 10 ml/kg ig and D-GalN(600 mg/kg)+LPS(lipopolysaccharide,1 ?g/kg) ig respectively in two model groups to induce liver injury. Liver injury was assessed by quantifying activities of plasma GPT, SOD, GSH-Px and MDA content.Results: The increase of plasma GPT activity was significantly inhibited by LMFO in two liver injury models, suggesting that LMFO had good protective effect on the hepatocytes. LMFO had good antioxidative effect in mice with liver injury induced by CCl 4 and D-GalN+LPS as indicated by decreased MDA content and increased activities of plasma SOD and GSH-Px. Conclusion: LMFO is protective against CCl 4-induced and D-GalN+ LPS induced liver injury in mice and its effect may be due to its antioxidative activities in vivo.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of neoadjuvant chemo-radiation combined with thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.Methods The retrospective cohort study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 111 esophageal cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemo-radiation combined with thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy in the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 2010 and December 2016 were collected.Among 111 patients,68 with interval time between neoadjuvant chemo-radiation and thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy ＜ 8 weeks were allocated into the ＜ 8 weeks group and 43 with interval time between neoadjuvant chemo-radiation and thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy ≥8 weeks were allocated into the ≥8 weeks group.Patients underwent preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy with TP regimen,and then underwent selective thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy.Observation indicators:(1) neoadjuvant chemo-radiation situations;(2) surgical and postoperative situations;(3) follow-up.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect postoperative survival of patients and tumor recurrence or metastasis up to March 2017.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test.Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability.Comparison of ranked data was done by the nonparametric test.Results (1) Neoadjuvant chemo-radiation situations:all the patients underwent neoadjuvant chemo-radiation,without severe adverse reaction.Number of patients with complete remission based on oncopathology were 34 in the ＜8 weeks group and 15 in the ≥ 8 weeks group,with no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups (x2=2.441,P＞0.05).(2) Surgical and postoperative situations:all the patients underwent successful thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy,with negative surgical margins.Operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,number of lymph node dissected,time of postoperative intrathoracic drainagetube removal,time of postoperative neck drainage-tube removal,hoarseness,upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage,anastomotic fistula,respiratory complication,pleural effusion and empyema,cardiovascular complication,incision abnormal healing,death within postoperative 30 days and duration of hospital stay were (354±103)minutes,(400± 76)mL,19±4,(11±4)days,(4.9±1.6)days,5,1,12,3,6,5,8,0,(19± 17) days in the ＜ 8 weeks group and (343±92) minutes,(392±51)mL,19±3,(12±6)days,(4.5±1.0)days,2,0,7,5,3,4,3,2,(18± 11) days in the ≥ 8 weeks group,respectively,with no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups (t =1.080,0.569,0.326,1.223,1.286,x2=0.029,0.035,1.114,0.000,0.000,0.246,t=0.315,P＞ 0.05).(3) Follow-up:90 of 111 patients were followed up for 3-82 months,with a median time of 25 months,including 55 in the ＜8 weeks group and 35 in the ≥8 weeks group.During follow-up,death and tumor recurrence were detected in 9,11 patients in the ＜8 weeks group and 6,11 patients in the ≥ 8 weeks group,respectively.Conclusion Neoadjuvant chemo-radiation combined with thoracoscopic and laparoscopic three-incision esophagectomy is safe and effective,and it doesn't increase the perioperative risks based on preoperative 8-week interval time.

Objective To investigate the status of knowledge and performance on Chinese Heart Failure Diagnosis and Treatment Guideline (2014 version) in general practitioners of Shanghai Pudong communities.Methods The survey was conducted from April to June in 2014 with a self-designed questionnaire.Total 390 general practitioners (GPs) in Pudong New Area were selected by cluster sampling method.The contents of questionnaire included:diagnosis and differential diagnosis,drug therapy,non drug therapy of chronic heart failure.Result Total 385 questionnaires were retrieved with a response rate of 98.7％ (385/390).The results showed that in aspect of diagnosis and differential diagnosis,373 (96.9％) Gps made the diagnosis based on history and physical examination,171 (44.4％)Gps never used BNP or NTPro-BNP tests,280 (72.7％)GPs did not know how to identify systolic or diastolic heart failure,86 (22.3％)Gps made the differential diagnosis according to the EF value.In aspects of drug therapy,the rate of beta blockers use was 10％-30％ in 284 (73.8％) Gps,149 (38.7％) Gps did not use beta blockers because of not knowing the contraindications,289 (75.1％) Gps used a maximum dose of betaloc for 25-50 mg,no one used 101-200 mg,242 (62.9％)Gps did not know the target dose of betaloc,the rate of ACEI/ARB use was 10％-30％ in 330 (85.7％) Gps,258 (67.0％) Gps would increase the dose but not knowing the target dose.The main reason for not using the target dose of Betaloc and ACEI/ARB was not knowing the dose.In aspect of non-drug therapy:240 (62.3％)Gps never heard of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and 271 (70.4％)Gps never heard of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD).The senior rank GPs grasped the guideline much better than Gps with primary and intermediate professional ranks.Conclusion General practitioners in community health centers should further study the guideline of heart failure,particularly need to strengthen the knowledge and ability of drug therapy.

The paper presented a reform program jointly launched by China National Health Development Research Center(CNHDRC) and the UK National Institutes of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) for integrated care pathway and payment reform in China,and its theory basis and framework as well.Intervention measures of the program in Shanxi,Chongqing,Shandong and Henan proved the program theory design as reasonable and implementation outcomes as successful.These two measures,though proven,fall far short of a total solution to overcome roadblocks in the ongoing healthcare reform,and further reforms are expected in the future.

Objective: To compare the shear strength of the self-etching techniques and the all-etching techniques for enamel adhesion and to provide evidence for the selection of different bonding methods in clinical practice. Methods: Ten middle incisors recently extracted were collected,each was cut into two parts following its sagittal axis,thus divide each tooth into two groups.For group 1 Single BondTM 2 was used to bond FiltekTM Z250 resin to the teeth.For group 2,SE Bond was used to bond Filtek Z250 resin to the teeth.After that,according to the principle of pressing from the incisal margin to the cervix,the shear strength of each bonding unit was tested and statistically analyzed. Results: The shear strength of Single BondTM 2 was significantly higher than that of SE Bond(P

[Objective]To study the dental status,the development of jaw and the size of sella turcica of children with ectoder-mal dysplasia(ED).[Methods]Panaramic radiography and lateral cephalograms of six ED individuals(age range of 6~7 years,five males and one female)were obtained. The dental status was record. 17 measurements about the jaws and the sella turcica were mea-sured and compare them to Chinese children without ED syndrome.[Results]The mean number of missing teeth was 22.3 in perma-nent dentition and 16.2 in primary dentition;The teeth that most likely to absent were permanent lateral incisor ,maxillary first premo-lar,maxillary primary lateral incisor and mandibular primary central incisor,and all remaining teeth are in conical shape. Lateral cephalometric measurements showed that all ED subjects had lower ANS-Ptm,which suggested a short maxilla. Low Co-Po,ANB, NA-PA,N-Me,N-ANS and ANS-Me values that were found in all subjects,as well as low SNA,Y-axis,MP-FH,S-Co,and high SNB,NP-FH,NP-FH that were noted in some subjects showed counterclockwise rotation and protrusion of mandible with short-er length in ED subjects. Some subjects had low ANS-Me/N-Me × 100%and high N-ANS/N-Me × 100%,representing a short facial height. Five cases represented lower length and diameter of sella turcica;two cases showed lower depth of sella turcica ,indicating the abnormal development of sella turcica.[Conclusion]The results of this study suggest that the dentition ,jaws and sella turcica in ED children differs when compared to individuals without this syndrome.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of neoadjunctive chemotherapy(NAC)of docetaxel and epirubicin com-bined with cyclophosphamide on clinical efficacy and tumor markers of breast cancer patients with different molecular types. METH-ODS:A total of 88 female patients with locally advanced breast cancer collected from our hospital during Jan. 2014-Jan. 2016 were divided into Luminal A type(23 cases),Luminal B type(21 cases),basal-like type(11 cases),HER2-over expressing type(18 cases)and normal breast-like type(15 cases)according to molecular type. All patients were given Docetaxel injection+Epirubicin hydrochloride injection+Cyclophosphamide for injection for consecutive 6 cycles(21 d as a cycle). Total response rates and patho-logical complete remission(pCR)rates were compared among breast cancer patients with different molecular types. The expression of serum tumor markers [CEA,CA125,CA153] were compared before and after treatment,and the occurrence of ADR was record-ed. RESULTS:Total response rate of 88 patients was 63.64%,among which that of basal-like breast cancer patients was 72.73%, significantly higher than other molecular types,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in total response rates of pairwise molecular type comparison(P>0.05). The pCR rate of 88 patients was 27.27%,and that of basal-like breast cancer patients was the highest(45.45%). There was statistical significance in pCR rates of pairwise molecular type compari-son(P<0.05),except there was no significant difference in pCR rate between HER2-over expressing type and normal breast-like type(P>0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the expression of CEA,CA125 and CA153 in breast can-cer patients with different molecular types(P>0.05). After treatment,the expression of CEA,CA125 and CA153 in different mo-lecular types were decreased significantly,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the expres-sion of above markers among different molecular types(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR among different molecular types(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:NAC plan of docetaxel and epirubicin combined with cyclophospha-mide can reduce the expression of tumor markers and shows certain therapeutic efficacy for breast cancer patients with different mo-lecular types. Total response rate and pCR rate of basal-like type are better than those of other molecular types,so NAC plan is the preferred treatment for basal-like type breast cancer.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of computed tomography?guided visceral nerve plexus ethanol neurolysis through post?curs of diaphragm approach in the treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer pain using,and study the safety and life quality improvement of patients . Methods A total of 58 patients suffered from pancreatic cancer pain,who were treated in the department of pain medicine of the First Hospital of China Medical University from October 2013 to December 2014,were recruited for the study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the willing of the patients and their families,group A(32 cases)was treated with Visceral Nerve Plexus ethanol Neurolysis,while group B(26 cas?es)was treated with oral opioid drugs. The analgesic effect,changes in the amount of opioid drugs,changes in the PSQI scores and the improvement of quality of life were evaluated before treatment and 1 day(T1),15 days(T15),30 days(T30),60 days(T60)after treatment. Record the adverse reactions in the course of treatment. Results All the patients of group A successfully received visceral nerve plexus ethanol neurolysis,the VAS scores,Karnofsky scores,and PSQI scores of all the observed time points(after the operation)were statistically different compared to those before treatment and group B. Statistically difference was also observed in quality of life between two groups(P<0.05). The amount of opioid drugs of group B was statistically increased than that of group A(P<0.01).The most common side effects in Group A were postural hypotension(6 cases),diar?rhea(2 cases),and intercostal neuralgia,while nausea(20 cases),constipation(11 cases)and dizziness(8 cases)were seen in the Group B. Con?clusion Visceral nerve plexus ethanol neurolysis through post?curs of diaphragm approach by the guide of CT is effective and safe for the patients with pancreatic cancer pain,and the complications were totally acceptable.

Objective To evaluate the value of the Bedside Index for Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP) in diagnosing severe acute pancreatitis. Methods Sixty-eight patients with suspected diagnosis of severe acute pancreatitis were collected and were scored by BISAP, APACHE Ⅱ , Ranson and CTSI scoring systems, respectively. BISAP scoring system included the blood urea nitrogen, impaired mental status,systemic inflammatory response syndrome, age, and pleural effusion. The diagnosis criteria of severe acute pancreatitis was BISAP ≥ 3 points or APACHE IⅡ ≥ 8 points, Ranson ≥ 3 points, CTSI ≥ 3 points. The diagnostic accuracy of SAP of these scoring systems was calculated. Results Among these 68 cases, 63.2％(43/68) were graded ≥ 3 points in BISAP scoring system;60.3％ (41/68) were marked ≥8 points in APACHE Ⅱ scoring system; 60.3％ (41/68) were scored ≥ 3 points in Ranson scoring system; and 67.6％(46/68) were scored ≥3 points in CTSI scoring system. There was no statistical difference between BISAP scoring system and other three scoring systems in diagnosing severe acute pancreatitis. Conclusions As a new and simple scoring system, BISAP scoring system can be widely used in the diagnosis of severe acute pancreatitis.
