Incidence of cancer is increasing year by year,diagnostic techniques are continually advanced,and the numbers of anti-cancer drugs are growing,but the efficacy has not been fundamentally improved.Surgery,chemotherapy and radiotherapy can only kill the part of mature tumor cells,but can not kill the cancer stem cells,and eventually leading to tumor recurrence.While acupuncture,qigong,psychology comprehensive treatment can inhibit tumor growth and reduce metastasis and recurrence,improve quality of life and prolong survival.We should update our recognition,to carry out the study on the treatment of tumor by TCM with large sample and multiple centers,to demonstrate its low toxicity,low costs and efficiency.

Objective:To study the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of GSTM1 GSTT1 and the susceptibility of laryngeal and hypopharyngeal carcinomas(LHC).Method:The GSTM1 an GSTT1 genotypes were determined by multiplex PCR analysis in 76 LHC patients and 76 population controls.The association be tween the genotypes and LHC risk was measured by odds ratios(ORs)and 95% confidence intervals(95%Cls).Resuit:The frequency of GSTM1 null genotype was 59.2% in the LHC patients and 42.1% in controls(OR=1.935,95%CI=1.069-3.510),the difference was significant(P＜0.01).The frequency of GSTT1 null genotype was 57.9% in the LHC patients and 51.3% in controls.The difference was not significant(P＞0.05).In smokers,the risk of the LHC increased in subjects of GSTM1 null genotype(OR=5.545,95%CI=2.158-13.528).Conclusion:GSTM1 polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to the LHC.It has the synergistic effects with smoking in the development of the LHC.GSTT1 genotypes might have no association with risk of the LHC in urban Linyi.

Objective To investigate the growth inhibition and radiosensitization of Celecoxib in hu-man nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE-2. Methods CNE-2 growth inhibition by Celecoxib was eval-uated by MTT method. Apoptosis-related changes in morphology were observed by transmission electron mi-croscopy (TEM). Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis rate were measured by flowcytometry (FCM). The ex-pression of COX-2 protein was observed by SP method after the treatment of Celecoxib. Cells were randomly planted into four groups: irradiation control(Ci), drug group(Cd), irradiation group(R), and Celecoxib plus irradiation group(D+R). Single irradiation of 2,4,6,8,and 10 Gy were administered for colonogenic assay. Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis rate were analyzed at 6 Gy irradiation. Results The growth of CNE-2 cell was inhibited by celecoxib in a dose-and time-dependent manner, the IC50 was 80 μmol/L After the treatment, cell ratio of GO and G, phases was increased (47.03±2.76 vs 56.17±1.95, t=4.68, P= 0.010), whereas the ratio of S and G2/M phases was decreased (33.07±1.86 vs 24.87±1.76, t=5.54, P = 0.010; 19.30±0.53: 17.73±0.83, t=2.75, P=0.050), and the apoptosis rate was increased (1.57±0.47:10.47±0.31, t = 27.39, P = 0.000) in a dose-dependent manner. Apoptosis with nuclear chromatin condensation, fragmentation and cell shrinkage was found by TEM. SP method showed that Celeib decreased COX-2 expression (17.48±0.34 vs 12.82±0.51,t=13.20,P =0.00). The sensitivity ratio(D0) was 1.15. FCM showed that the percentage of cells in G2/M phase was significanty more in R and D+R groups than in Ci and Cd groups (68.00±1.65,54.27±5.74,17.60±0.80,14.86±1.23, t=47.70,P=0.000; t=11.63, P=0.000), and also significantly different between R group and D + R group (t=3.99, P= 0.020). The apoptosis rate was higher in R and D + R groups than Ci and Cd groups(4.83±0.97,9.50± 1.35,1.33±0.86 and 2.28±0.42,t=4.67,P=0.010;t=8.81, P=0.000), D + R group than R group(t =4.85,P=0.010). Conclusions Celecoxib can markedly inhibit the growth and induce apoptosis in CNE-2 cells,which may depend on COX-2 pathway. Celeeoxib potently enhances the radiosensitivity of CNE-2 cells,which may due to the repair inhibit of radiation-induced DNA damage, inhibit of cell proliferation,and enhancement of cell apoptosis after irradiation.

Objective To study the effect of fascial flap with vessels inducing the vascularization of uncel-lular tissue engingeering complex and the regenration of bone on the repair of bone defect, so as to provide the basis for the clinical application. Methods An animal model of bone defect on adult Newzland rabbits'right radial bone was established .and autologous red bone marrow were taken out and mixed into uncellulax tissue engineering comple-xes with OAM which contained BMP. The experiment animals were divided into two groups : experiment group and control group( n = 12 for each ). The control group was only implanted with complexes, meanwhile, the experiment group had fascial flap with vessels. By microsurgery technology,a non-named fascial flap with vessels was prepared, which belonged to capillary net,around the bone defect,and let it wrap tissue engineering complex,fill up bone de-fect. In a certian time, radiograph(X-ray) and light density measure was conducted, gross morphology and histological inspection was exmained. Bone shape measurement analysis and image of vessel analysis were conducted. All the sta-tistics were analyzed by the SPSS 11.5 software. Results Because of mechanically preventing fiber connective tis-sues and surrounding soft tissues from entering the areas of bone defect by fascial flap, it can keep bone defect having a relative stable environment ;The subfascial space itself, and also the shape and mass of filled-in subject had the de-cisive effect on the results of the regeneration of the bone; Owing to the establishment of blood supply during the con-structing tissue engineering complex. The experiment group was obviously superior to the control group. Compared with control group,the absor bance obviously increased in experiment group [(0. 732 ± 0. 021 ) vs (0. 651± 0.018)] (P < 0. 001 ) four weeks after the operation; also the bone trabecular body was significantly increased [(2.32±2.57)% vs(19.37±3.52)% ,(8.37±3.52)% vs(30.24±3.42)% ,(28.57±2.98)% vs(58.76± 4.62)% ,(47.24±3.42)% vs(88.72±5.84)%] ,and capillary area [(5.04±1.62)% vs(17.53±2.86)%, (10.37 ±2.96)% vs(35.24±1. 13)%,(18.20±2. 12)% vs(48.76±4. 62)%,(17.82 ±2. 74)% vs (57.72 ±5.84)%] (P <0.05) at each time period(4 weeks,8 weeks,12 weeks,and 16 weeks after operation). Despite of growth of implant's internal vessel, the number and speed of forming bone trabecula and cartilaginous tis-sue, even developing of mature bone structure, recreating of diaphysis structure, reconstructing of marrow cavity, ab-sorbing and decomposing of implant, the experiment group was obviously superior to the control group. Conclusions The induction of fascial flap with vessels shows double effects, one of which is the vascularization of uncellular tis-sue engineering complex and the other is membrane guided bone regeneration, So the method has a wonderful effect on the repair of bone defect.

BACKGROUND:Foreign scholars have obtained a success to cure fracture by implanting the complex of red bone marrow and formation factor.Due to the in vitro culture process is not necessary,the complex of red bona marrow and scaffold formation factor is only required to be implant immediately,called uncellular tissue engineered bone.OBJECTIVE:This study innovatively constructs uncellular tissue engineered bone with autologous red bone marrow wrapped by fascial flap with pedicle,and validates the superiority of repairing bone defects.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Homebody controlled animal experiment was performed in the Hebei North University and the Experiment Center of the Affiliated Hospital to Hebei North University from December 2007 to February 2009.MATERIALS:A total of 24 News Zealand albino rabbits,aged 4-5 months; uncellular tissue engineered bone was a mixture of autologous red bone marrow and osteoinductive absorbing materials containing bone morphogenetic proteins.METHODS:Bone defect models were induced on adult New Zealand rabbits' right radial bone,left side served as control group,only implanted with osteoinductive absorbing materials complex,while right side served as experiment group,which contained fascial flap with pedicle.A fascial flap prepared with capillary network containing nameless blood vessel pedicle was located to be adjacent to the bone defect using micro-surgical technique,to wrap the tissue engineered bone and to fill the bone defect.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:At 4,8,12,16 weeks postoperation,six rabbits were tested by radiograph,spectrodensitometry,gross morphology observation,histological inspection,quantitative analysis of bone morphometry in bone defect area and analysis of vessels image in the junctional zone.RESULTS:①X-ray determination:At 16 weeks,the implant surrounding bone defects formed bone shaft structure in the control group,cortical bone was not continuous and medullary cavity was obstructed; in the experiment group,normal bone shaft structure was formed and recanalization of medullary cavity was observed.②Histological observation:At 16 weeks,few vessels grew into implant in the control group,mature bone trabecular were observed,and medullary cavity was obstructed; in the experiment group,the implanting materials were completely degraded and substituted by new bone,mature bone structure formed and recanalization of medullary cavity was observed.③Quantitative analysis of bone morphometry in bone defect area:At 4,8,12,16 weeks postoperation,the volume of bone trabecula in the experiment group was more than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).④Analysis of vessels image in the junctional zone:The area of vessels in the unit area in the experiment group was greater than that in control group in every time stage (P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:The uncellular tissue engineering complex constructed by autologous red bone marrow wrapped by fascial flap with pedicle shows double effects of hymeno-inducing regeneration of bone and the vascularization.It is feasible to repair large-segment bone defects.It has obvious therapeutic effect in the aspects such as reducing the bone defect reparation time and advancing the quantity and quality of the bone generation.

Objective To evaluate the resistance of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( M. tb) strains to bedaquiline ( BDQ) and to analyze the relationships between their genotypes and BDQ-re-sistant phenotypes in order to provide a scientific basis for rational use of BDQ for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis ( MDR-TB) in clinical practice. Methods A total of 387 clinical M. tb strains, inclu-ding 100 pan-susceptible strains and 287 strains isolated from patients with MDR ( MDR-TB strains) , were enrolled in this study. Of the 287 MDR-TB strains, 77 strains were collected in Chongqing in 2015 and the other strains were collected in a national drug-resistant tuberculosis survey conducted in China during 2007 to 2008. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of BDQ against those strains were detected. Genotypes of those strains were analyzed by Spoligotyping. Differences in the resistant rates against BDQ between Beijing genotype and non-Beijng genotype MDR-TB strains were comparatively analyzed. Results MIC50 and MIC90 of BDQ against the 287 MDR-TB strains were 0. 03 μg/ml and 0. 25 μg/ml, respectively. Nineteen out of the 287 MDR-TB strains (6. 6%) were resistant to BDQ. Based on the Spoligotyping, 195 strains were clas-sified into Beijing genotype, and the other 92 strains belonged to non-Beijing genotype. Statistical analysis revealed that the BDQ-resistant rate in Being genotype strains (4. 6%, 9/195) was lower than that in non-Beijing genotype strains (10. 9%, 10/92, χ2=3. 955, P=0. 047). In addition, the MIC50 and MIC90 of BDQ against pan-susceptible strains were 0. 03 μg/ml and 0. 12 μg/ml, respectively. Sixty-three pan-sus-ceptible strains belonged to Beijing genotype and the other 37 strains belonged to non-Beijing genotype. None of the pan-susceptible strains was resistant to BDQ. Conclusion This study indicates that BDQ showed stronger in vitro antibacterial activity against the MDR-TB strains isolated in China. A correlation between non-Beijing genotype and BDQ resistance is observed in those MDR strains. MDR strains of Beijing genotype are more susceptible to BDQ than those of non-Beijing genotype.

Objective To evaluate the effect of vagus nerve stimulation on the blood coagulation and fibrinolysis in endotoxemic rats.Methods Ninety-six male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 250-280 g,were equally and randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table:normal saline group (S group) ; lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group; vagus nerve cutting group (VNC group) and vagus nerve stimulation group (VNS group).Endotoxemia was induced by LPS 10 mg/kg injected via the left femoral vein.In group S,normal saline 5 ml/kg was injected via the left femoral vein.In S and LPS groups,the bilateral vagus nerves were only isolated.The bilateral vagus nerves were isolated,ligated and cut immediately after LPS injection in VNC group.The distal end of the vagus nerve was stimulated with direct current (5 V,2 ms,1 Hz) continuously for 20 min starting from the end of LPS injection in group VNS.Six rats were sacrificed before LPS injection (T0) and at 2,4 and 6 h after LPS injection (T1-3) and arterial blood samples were taken for determination of the levels of plasma tumor necrosis factorα (TNF-α),antithrombin (AT),tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA),plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) and D-Dimer.Results Compared with group S,the plasma TNF-α,tPA,PAI-1 and D-Dimer levels were significantly increased,and AT level was decreased after LPS injection in LPS and VNC groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group LPS group,the plasma AT level was significantly decreased,and the plasma PAI-1 level was increased in group VNC,and the plasma TNFα,tPA,PAI-1 and D-Dimer levels were decreased,and the plasma AT level was increased in VNS group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve can improve the blood coagulation and fibinonlysis in endotoxemic rats,and activation of cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway,inhibition of inflammatory responses and reduction of damage to vascular endothelial cells may be involved in the mechanism.

Objective To explore the influence of dexmedetomidine on blood gas and inflammation cytokines in patients with one-lung ventilation (OLV).Methods Sixty-two patients undergoing radical resection of pulmonary carcinoma were divided into observation group and control group in sequence,31 cases in each group.All patients treated with intravenous sufentanil 0.3-0.5 μg/kg,propofol 1.5-2.5 mg/kg,midazolam 0.5 mg/kg and rocuronium 0.9 mg/kg for induction of anesthesia;intravenous infusion of propofol 6-8 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 and remifentanil 0.1-0.5 μg·kg-1 ·min-1,intermittent intravenous injection of cisatracurium for anesthesia maintenance.The patients in the observation group were given 1μg/kg loading dose dexmedetomidine 10 min before anesthesia induction (infusion in 10 min),maintaining at 0.5 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 until 30 min before the end of surgery.The patients in the control group were given the same amount of saline as a control.The blood gas analysis index,pH,partial oxygen pressure (PaO2),CO2 partial pressure (PaCO2) and such inflammation cytokines as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) at OLV (T0),after OLVlh (T1),the end of OLV (T2) were respectively tested,the dosage of propofol in the two groups were recorded.Results The dosage of propofol in observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P＜0.05);pH declined in the two groups (P＜0.05),but the difference had no statistical significance;PaO2 was rising then declined in the two groups (P＜0.05),but it was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group(P＜0.05);PaCO2 in the two groups increased gradually(P＜0.05),it was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P＜0.05);The serum TNF-α,IL-6 in the two groups showed a trend of increasing (P＜0.05),it was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can maintain blood gas stability and reduce inflammation caused by single lung ventilation.

Objective:To determine the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence (FrND) scale among smoking male inpatients with schizophrenia.Methods:Two hundred and twenty smoking male inpatients,who met criteria for schizophrenia of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition (DSM-Ⅳ),were consecutively included.FTND scale and Russell's Reasons for Smoking Questionnaire (RRSQ) were used to assess subjects'severity of nicotine dependence and addiction score of the dimension of reason for smoking,respectively.According to the principle of voluntariness,37 subjects were selected and re-assessed with FTND scale after two-week interval.Reliability,correlation and factor analyses were used to examine the reliability and validity.Results:The Cronbach α (internal consistency) and two-week re-test reliability coefficients of FTND scale were 0.68 and 0.72 (P ＜0.01),respectively.The criterion related validity coefficient with addiction score of RRSQ was 0.53 (P ＜0.01).Two common factors were abstracted from the scale factor analysis,accounting for 52.4％ of the total variance.There were statistically significant differences between patients with different duration of illness,number of hospitalizations and age of smoking initiation (P ＜0.05).Conclusion:The Chinese version of FTND scale for smoking male inpatients with schizophrenia has a relatively low internal consistency and good re-test reliability,criterion related validity,construct validity and empirical validity.
