Objective To investigate the effects of gemcitabine,a cytotoxic drug,combined with photodynamic therapy (PDT) in treatment of human pancreatic cancer xenograft in nude mice.Methods The animal model of human pancreatic cancer was developed by suturing small pieces of SW1990 tumors into the dorsum of nude mice.Sixty animal models were randomly divided into five groups with 12 each:control group ( without any treatment ), photosensitizer group ( 2 mg/kg of Photosan, without illumination ),chemotherapy group (receiving 50 mg/kg of gemcitabine i.p. on day 0,3,6 and 9 after transplantation),photodynamic group (2 mg/kg photosan combined with laser irradiation) and combination group (50 mg/kg of gemcitabine and 2 mg/kg of photosan combined with laser irradiation). The tumor sizes were measured twice every week.All mice were sacrificed after 21 days.The tumor volume was calculated,and inhibitory effect and changes before and after treatment were analyzed.Results The tumor was grown bigger in control,photosensitizer and chemotherapy groups (all P value ＜0.05).On day 6,9,12,15,18and 21, the tumor size was significantly smaller in photodynamic group than those in control and photosensitize groups.While the tumor size on day 18 and 21 was smaller in combined group than those in photodynamic group(all P value ＜0.05). The tumor mass was (0.29 ± 0.20) g in combined group,which was lower than that in photodynamic,control,photosensitize and chemotherapy groups[(0.69±0.23) g,(1.65±0.21) g,(1.62±0.12) g,(1.37±0.19) g,respectively,P＜0.05].The inhibitory effect were 82.420%00 and 58.18% in combined group and photodynamic group,respectively(P＜0.05),while there was 1.80% and 17.00% in photosensitize and chemotherapy groups,respectively.Conclusions Photodynamic therapy has significant and short anti-tumor effect,but it can be significantly enhanced by combined with small dose of gemcitabine.

Objective To investigate the anti-tumor effects of photodynamie therapy(PDT)on human pancreatic cancer xenograft in nude mice and the time-effect relationship of PDT.Methods The animal model of human pancreatic cancer was developed by suturing small pieces of SW1990 tumors into the dorsum of nude mice.When the size of the tumors increased to 0.8～1.0 cm.36 mice were randomly divided into three groups:control group(no treatment),photosensitizer group(Photosan 2mg/kg,abdominal cavity injection),photodynamic group(Photosan 2 mg/kg injection+laser irradiation).Each group included 12 mice.The tumor sizes were measured twice per week and the weight8 and volumes of the tumors were measured,and the tumor inhibitory rate was calculated three weeks later.Results The tumor volume of photodynamic group was (0.22±0.12)mm3 at the 6th day,which was significantly smaller than(0.43 s0.18)mm3 of control group and(0.39±0.15)mm3 of photosensitizer group(P＜0.05).15 days later,the tumor volumes of PDT groups increased.21 days later.the weight of the tumors in photodynamie group was(0.69±0.23)g,which was significantly lower than(1.65 ±0.21)g of control group and(1.62±0.12)g of photosensitizer group(P＜0.05).The tumor inhibitory rate in photodynamic group was 58.18%,which was significantly higher than that of photoseasitizer group(1.8%,P＜0.05).Conclusions Photodynamie therapy had significant anti-tumor effect on human pancreatic cancer with quick-acting efficacy,but photodynamie therapy alone exeaed efficacy only in the shoa term.

0.05).After that,both systolic and diastolic function began to decrease.In 4 weeks after the operation,both the the maximum rate of left ventricular isovolumic systolic pressure + dp/dtmax and the maximum rate of left ventricular isovolumic diastolic pressure-dp/dtmax decreased to the lowest levels [(1249.89 ? 95.82) mm Hg/s and(-1316.40 ? 58.31) mm Hg/s,respectively];and then in 6 weeks after the operation,echocardiography showed that the left ventricular short axis fractional shortening FS reached the lowest level [(18.70 ? 3.83)%].Moreover,we found that the FS was highly related with the + dp/dtmax(r=0.864,P

Objective To observe the differences in the therapeutic efficacies of macrolides,minocycline,and tosufloxacin against macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MRMP).Methods A total of 188 children with M.pneumoniae pneumonia confirmed by culture and PCR were analyzed.Of these,150 patients had a strain with an MR gene and 134 had one with an A-to-G mutation at position 2063 of M.pneumoniae 23S rRNA domain V.Azithromycin(n=27),clarithromycin(n=23),tosufloxacin(n=62),or minocycline(n=38)was used for definitive treatment of patients with MR M.pneumoniae.Among the 188 patients,the other 38 patients with macrolide-sensitive Mycoplasma pneumonia (MSMP)were grouped into azithromycin(n =16)and clarithromycin groups(n =22)for observing whether there is differences with respect to efficacy under parallel treatment between patients with MRMP and MSMP. Results Defervescence within 48 h after the initiation of antibiotic therapy was observed in 41%of the patients in the azithromycin group,48% of those in the clarithromycin group,69% of those in the tosufloxacin group,and 87% of those in the minocycline group.The average number of days of fever after the administration of antibiotic treatment was lower in the minocycline and tosufloxacin groups than in the macrolide groups(azithromycin and clarithromycin groups).The decrease in the M.pneumoniae burden,as estimated by the number of DNA copies,after 48 to 96 h of treatment was more rapid in patients receiving minocycline(P=0.016)than in those receiving tosufloxacin(P=0.049),azithromycin(P=0.273),or clarithromycin(P=0.107).Conclusion We found that the clinical and bacteriological efficacies of macrolides against MR M.pneumoniae pneumonia was low.Our results indicated that minocycline rather than tosufloxacin can be considered the first-choice drug for the treatment of M.pneumoniae pneumonia in children aged >8 years.

Objective To explore the long-term efficacy of botulinum toxin type A injections on facial beauty and its long-term safety.Methods A total of 33 beauty-seekers with botulinum toxin type A treatment for more than five years were reviewed as observation group,using digital muscle palpation meter (Myoton PRO) for the determination of the orbicularis oculi muscle and masseter muscle tension (F),the muscle characteristic parameters,such as muscle hardness (S) using a homemade facial questionnaire test for satisfactory rate of beauty from both beauty-seekers and physicians.At sametime,33 normal adults that never accepted botulinum toxin injection with matched age and gender were collected as control group.The same-sex indicators were dtermined and compared with using statistic analysis t test.Results The pairwised parameters of the same sex and site were comparied between the two groups;average F and S values in the observation group were lower than those of the control group,but no statistically significant difference were observed between the two groups (P＞0.05);in the observation group,average appearance age was 7.3 years younger than the control group,and the facial shape improved significantly.Conclusions Long-term and repeated application of botulinum toxin A is able to remove crow's feet and decrease the masseter and so the injection is safe with high satisfaction to beauty-seekers.

Objective To examine the mediating role of work?family enrichment between family supportive supervisor behavior and nurses'career resilience. Methods Totally 727 nurses selected by clus?ter?random?sampling were investigated by the family supportive supervisor behaviors scale( FSSBS) ,the wok?family enrichment scale( WFES) and the career resilience scale( CRS) . Results The scores of family sup?portive supervisor behavior,work to family enrichment,family to work enrichment and career resilience were (3.74±0.68),(3.36±0.77),(3.59±0.72) and (3.41±0.84) respectively. The family supportive supervisor behavior( r=0.31, P<0.01) ,work to family enrichment( r=0.32, P<0.01) and family to wok enrichment( r=0.30, P<0.01) were positively related to career resilience. The family supportive supervisor behavior posi?tively influenced career resilience(P<0.01). Work?family enrichment partially mediated the association be?tween family supportive supervisor behavior and career resilience, accounted for 37. 7% of the total effect. Conclusion Health organizations should try to build family supportive organizational climate and improve nurses'level of work?family enrichment and career resilience,then promote job performance and job satisfac?tion.

Objective To study the relationship between essential hypertension(EH)with serum homocysteine(HCY),uroten-sinⅡ(UⅡ),angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE)and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP).Methods By collec-ting the clinical cases,UⅡwas determined by ELISA and HCY,ACE and NT-proBNP were simultaneously detected by ELISA.The detection results were analyzed and compared between the patients with essential hypertension(EH group)and the healthy con-trols.Results The levels of serum HCY,UⅡ,ACE and NT-proBNP in the EH group were significantly increased compared with the healthy control group;the area under curve (AUC)of serum HCY,UⅡ,ACE and NT-proBNP in the ROC curve in the EH group were 0.93,0.765,0.792 and 0.972 respectively,which showed clinical diagnostic significance.Conclusion The levels of HCY,UⅡ,ACE and NT-proBNP are highly expressed in EH and have significant differences compared with the healthy popula-tion,which has the diagnostic value to EH.

Objective To investigate the influence of c-myc on the growth, proliferation, apoptosis,invasion and cell cycle of the gastric line HFE145. Methods The cDNA of c-myc was subcloned into a constitutive vector pcDNA3.1 followed by transfection in HFE145 by using liposome. Then stable expression clones (HFE-myc) were selected. The apoptosis and cell cycles were detected using flow cytometry. The growth and proliferation were analyzed by making cell growth curves and colony formation assay respectively. The ability of invasion were tested using cell migration assay. Results HFE-myc group grew faster than HFE145and HFE-pc. The cell counts of HFE-myc in five of seven days were more than those of others significantly (P＜0.05). There was no difference between the two control group. Cell cycle analysis showed that HFE-myc group proliferated faster, mean proportion of cells in G2-M was about 25 % and higher significantly (P ＜0.05)than those of the two control groups. Results of colony formation assay showed that the mean colony formation rate of HFE-myc was 0.27 and higher than those of the control groups(P ＜0.05). The results of cell migration assay suggested that the cell migration rate of HFE-myc was not higher significantly than those of the control groups (P ＞0.05). Conclusion c-myc can promote the growth, proliferation. It can increase the proportion of cells in division stage, so promote the division. But it have little influence on the invasion of cells.
