Objective To investigate the outcomes of surgery combined with albendazole liposomes in the treatment of advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.Methods This is a retrospective study on 71 patients with advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis treated from January 2002 to November 2013.The patients were divided into 4 groups according to the surgical methods and whether surgery was combined with albendazole liposomes.Results On follow-up from 5 ～ 44 months,the mortality rates for the volume-reduction surgery group was 82.3％,the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group 52.3％,the radical operation group 28.5％,and the radical operation + albendazole group 21.1％.The mortality rate of the radical operation + albendazole group,when compared with the radical operation group and the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group was significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).The mortality rate of the radical operation group,when compared with the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The mortality rate of the volume-reduction surgery group,when compared with the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group,the radical operation group,and the radical operation + albendazole group was significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The treatment of radical operation combined with albendazole liposomes for advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis reduced recurrence,improved quality of life and prolonged survival.It is a feasible method to treat these patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between diabetes and bone metabolism and the potential epigenetic mechanisms. Methods BMSCs were cultured for 7 and 15 days in cell culture medium with different concentrations of glucose. The mRNA and protein expression of HDACs and osteogenesis-related genes were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot assay ,respectively. Moreover ,the combination of HDAC to the promoter region of Runx2 was tested by the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay. Results ThemRNA expression of osteogenesis-related genes ,incuding OCN(P < 0.05)and Col1(P < 0.05),in the bone marrow of diabetic mice was significantly reduced compared with the control mice. The mRNA and protein expression of ALP ,OCN ,Runx2 and OSX was gradually reduced with the increasing concentration of glucose ,while HDAC2 mRNA and protein expression was increased. The binding activity of HDAC2 to the upstream and downstream of Runx2 promoter region in 25mM glucose-treated BMSCs was higher than the control group(P < 0.05). Conclusoins Diabetes might repress osteogenesis of BMSCs via inhibiting the activity of Runx2 through upregu-lating the expression of HDAC2.

Objective To observe the effect of Silbinin Capsuon serum interleukin-8 and tumor necrosis factor-?in NAFLD patients.Methods 58 patients with NAFLD were randomized into two groups.The treatment group including 29 cases received 70mg of Silbinin Capsules each time,three times a day.The control group including 29 cases received 100mg of goucurolactone tablets each time,three times a day.At the same time,both groups control food and drink and proper physical exercises.One course of treatment was 30 days in the study.Observe the changes of serum ALT,AST,IL-8 and TNF-?before and after treatment.Results The serum level of ALT,AST,IL-8 and TNF-?were improved significantly in both groups after treatment(P

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the the control of hyperglycemia in patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).METHODS: Patients were treated with NPH(subcutaneous injection) or continuous subcutaneous insulin injection(CSII) or Insulin glargine(subcutaneous injection).Incidences of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and the blood sugar level within 5 days of admission were measured.RESULTS: The incidences of blood glucose level being ≤4.0 mmol?L-1 or ≥11.1 mmol?L-1 were significant different in CSII group and insulin glargine group compared with NPH group respectively(P

Objective To encode the protein cystatin M with CST6 gene and construct a CST6-overexpression vector,and transfect it into the gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 in order to observe the effect of cystatin M on the proliferation and migration abilities of SGC-7901 cells.Methods There were three groups in the experiment:pcDNA3.1(+)-CST6 group,pcDNA3.1 (+)group and non-transfected group.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to identify the RNA expression of CST6 in SGC-7901/CST6 cells.The proliferation and migration abilities of the transfected cells were detected by MTT and cell wound healing assay,respectively.Results SGC-7901/CST6 cells stably expressed CST6 gene RNA and cystatin M protein.The proliferation and migration of pcDNA3 .1 (+)-CST6 group cells were reduced compared with those of cells in the other two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Cystatin M can inhibit the proliferation and migration of SGC-7901 cells.

Objective To assess the epidemiological characteristics of hypertension and its attributing factors in Heilongjiang province and establish a comprehensive basis for the prevention and control of hypertension in this region. Methods Using the stratified chunk method, a survey lasting 50 years was conducted on a sample of 299 677 (including i 58 782 males and 140 895 females) patients, aged 15 and above, residing in both rural and urban areas of Heilongjiang province from 1958 to 2007. Both blood pressure measurement and analysis on attributing factors of hypertension were carried out in 1958, 1979, 1991, 1999 and 2007. Results The prevalence of hypertension was significantly higher in Heilongjiang than in other provinces. It elevated annually, reaching a 3-fold increase in 50 years with an accelerating pace ( 17.06% to 25. 69% ) in the recent 8 years. Among the people examined, the prevalence of hypertension increased with aging. Furthermore, the prevalence of hypertension varied among different professions. Office workers had the highest prevalence (41.67%). Compared with female population, male participants had a much higher prevalence before the age of 55 (P < 0.0001 ). Body mass index, gender, hypertriglyceridemia, age, low-high density lipoprotein cholesterol and family history were identified as major risk factors for the development of hypertension in Heilongjiang province. However, the awareness (48. 90% ), treatment (25.33%) and control (4. 32% ) rates of hypertension in this region were relatively low. Conclusion The results of the present study identified Heilongjiang province as a high-risk region for hypertension. It also suggests the necessity to plan and implement actions for the effective prevention and treatment of hypertension in this region.

Objective To summarize our experience of harvesting and using the organs of donors after cardiac death.MethodsForm March 2010 to October 2011,56 potential donors were diagnosed with cardiac death,who conformed to the classification of Maastricht Ⅲ criteria.There were 40 failure cases whose family refused to donate,and one failure case who suffered from serious infection.Finally,the success ratio of donation after cardiac death was 26.8％ (15/56).Twelve livers and 22 kidneys were transplanted into 12 and 20 recipients respectively.ResultsTwelve cases of liver transplantations had acceptable outcomes. The grafts of 4 cases out of 20 cases of kidney transplantations were removed after transplantation,and other recipients had acceptable outcomes.ConclusionCitizens organ donation after cardiac death can expand the number of suitable organs,but we need to strictly control the criteria for potential donors.

Objective To determine the frequency of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)polymorphisms Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile in a cohort of hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients and their donors in China.Method We examined the polymorphisms in 208 peripheral blood samples collected from 104 recipients and their donors in a single center between 2007-2012 in Zhejiang Province,China,and Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile TLR4 gene polymorphisms were detected using the sample DNA amplification products direct sequencing and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method.Result Both methods didn't demonstrate TLR4 polymorphisms Asp299Gly or Thr399Ile base mutation in our samples.Conclusion The TLR4 Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile polymorphisms are very rare in our part of the population of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
