Objective To investigate the clinical value of individualization of transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy strategies for prostate cancer detection.Methods Ninety-seven patients who were considered having prostate cancer underwent individualization prostate biopsy strategies as individualization group.Fifty-two patients who were considered having prostate cancer underwent systemic 6-core prostate biopsy as control group.The detection rate of prostate cancer and rate of complications were compared between two groups.Results The detection rate of prostate cancer in individualization group was 43.3 ％(42/97),there was no significant difference in age and prostate volume between the prostate cancer patients and the non-prostate cancer patients(P＞0.05),but the prostate specific antigen(PSA)level of the prostate cancer patients was significantly higher than that of the non-prostate cancer patients[(26.4±2.9)μ g/L vs.(11.2±3.1)μ g/L,P=0.0000].The detection rate of prostate cancer in control group was 23.1％(12/52),the detection rate of prostate cancer in individualization group was significantly higher than that in control group(P=0.014).There was no significant difference in the rate of complications between two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions The first detection rate of prostate cancer in individualization of transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy strategies is higher than that by systemic 6-core prostate biopsy,and the rate of complications is not increased.The individualization of transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy strategies for prostate cancer is good,safety,deserve clinical expansion.

OBJECTIVE:To further enhance the implementation level of new Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) in phar-maceutical enterprises. METHODS:Based on the new GMP criteria and Guidelines for Risk Assessment of Pharmaceutical Produc-tion Site Inspection,a tracking inspection was conducted for the 31 pharmaceutical enterprises in 11 prefecture-level cities of Guangxi area. Defects of implementing new GMP and their causes were analyzed,and the suggestions were put forward. RESULTS& CONCLUSIONS:In the 31 pharmaceutical enterprises,there were 30 enterprises(96.8%)passed the new GMP tracking inspec-tion. Totally 331 defect items were found,focusing on equipment(76 items,23.0%),factory and facilities(47 items,14.2%),quality control and quality assurance(43 items,13.0%). Causes for defects were mainly institutions and staff training,factory and facilities,equipments management,maintenance and periodic check were far from satisfactory;material and product did not speci-fy a validity period or a retest period;relevant confirmation was incomplete with verification;the quality control,assurance,man-agement,document and production management were not standard and completed;and self-test program was too simple,etc. It is suggested that drug regulatory authorities should establish and improve the legal system,explore new patterns of drug GMP track-ing inspection (such as sudden unannounced inspection,detailed inspection),strengthen inspector team training and unify inspec-tion scale. And the pharmaceutical enterprises should produce drugs in line with the requirements of new GMP,focus on the update of key knowledge,strengthen relevance of training to ensure the drugs quality effectively by multilateral force.

Purpose:To study the connection between the blocking of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V(GnT-V) and endoplasmic reticulum stress(ER stress). Methods:The recombinant plasmid expressing siRNA of GnT-V was constructed and transfected into SMMC-7721. The key molecules such as GRP78,XBP1 and PERK during ER stress was analyzed in mRNA and protein levels. Results:GRP78 mRNA and protein levels were upregulated, the spliced forms of XBP1 mRNA and protein appeared and ER eIF2? kinase PERK was activated. Conclusions:These results suggest the blocking of GnT-V in SMMC-7721 induces cellular ER stress.

Objective To investigate the relationship between changes of cholinergic system and memory ability impairment in rats long-term exposed to hypoxia-hypercapnia.Methods Forty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into control group,2 weeks hypoxia-hypercapnia group and 4 weeks hypoxiahypercapnia group.The chronic hypoxia-hypercapnia rat model was set up.The memory ability was assessed by eight-arm radial maze.Morphological changes were observed by the HE staining and Nissl staining.Acetylcholine(ACh) content,choline acetyl-transferase (ChAT) activity and acetyl-cholinesterase (AChE) activity in the hippocampus were detected by spectrophotometry,while expression of α7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR) protein by Western blot.Results Memory ability,especially the working memory was impaired in rats exposed to chronic hypoxia-hypercapnia.And the memory ability decreased more markedly in four weeks group.Compared with those of normoxic rats,the levels of ACh and the activities of AChE and ChAT in the hippocampus of the two weeks group were significantly decreased (ACh:(58.9 ±2.7) vs (47.4 ±3.2) μg/mg (protein) ; AChE:(0.326 ±0.019) vs (0.247 ±0.020) U/mg (protein) ; ChAT:(127.1 ±8.6) vs (90.4 ±6.9) U/g (tissue wet weight),t =7.674,8.139,9.408,all P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the two weeks group,those changes were more obvious in the four weeks group rats (ACh:(47.4 ±3.2) vs (32.5 ±3.2) μg/mg (protein); AChE:(0.247 ±0.020),(0.170±0.019) U/mg (protein); ChAT:(90.4 ±6.9),(55.6 ±6.0) U/g (tissue wet weight),t =9.279,8.036,10.781,all P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the normoxic rats,the expressions of α7 nAChR protein were significantly decreased in two weeks group rats (t =4.481,P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,the expressions of α7 nAChR protein were significantly decreased in four weeks group rats comparing with the two weeks group (t =4.965,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions An impairment of rat' s memory ability may be induced by hypoxia-hypercapnia,and the injury degree is correlated with the exposure time.Cholinergic system dysfunctions may contribute to the memory function defects in chronic hypoxia-hypercapnia rats.

Objective To study the appropriate neck irradiation volume for neck lymph nodenegative nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients by Meta-analysis.Methods The related references published from Jan 1990 to Jun 2013 were searched in Pubmed,Embase,Cochrane and Wangfang Databases.The qualified references for enrollment criteria were screened and the relative data were collected.The OR (Odds ratio) value by fixed effect model was used to evaluate the data for patients who received radiotherapy between the upper neck and whole neck irradiation.The endpoints including 5-year neck local control rate (LCR),neck-in-irradiation LCR,and neck-outsides-irradiation LCR.Results Five qualified references were screened and belonged to respective research.There enrolled 1 333 patients,including 970 patients who received the upper neck irradiation and 363 patients who received the whole neck irradiation,respectively.The forest plots revealed that there were no significant differences for 5-year neck LCR,neckin-irradiation LCR,and neck-outsides-irradiation LCR for patients received radiotherapy between the upper neck and whole neck irradiation.These OR values were 0.89 (95％ CI:0.41-1.94),1.29 (95％ CI:0.58-2.88) and 0.42 (95％ CI:0.07-2.36),respectively.Conclusions The Meta-analysis results suggest that irradiation to the upper neck for neck lymph node-negative nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be appropriate.

Aim To investigate endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS)-mediated high-fat diet and palmitic acid-induced insulin resistance ( IR) in skeletal muscle and interventional effects of fenofibrate both in vivo and in vitro tests. Methods Female SD rats were randomly subjected to a standard control diet ( SCD) or high-fat diet ( HFD) for 20 weeks, then the HFD group was di-vided into high-fat-diet group and high-fat-diet group treated with fenofibrate ( HFD +FF, 30 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) for another 8 weeks. The changes of IR and ex-pression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α( PPARα) , glucose regulated protein 78 ( GRP78 ) and transcription factors GADD153 ( CHOP ) were as-sessed respectively. C2C12 myotubes were divided into normal control group ( NC ) , model group ( palmitic acid, PA) , postive control drug group ( tunicamycin, TM) and treatment group ( fenofibric acid, FA+PA) , the expressions of GRP78 and CHOP were assessed re-spectively. Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt was also analyzed to detect changes of insulin sensitivi-ty in C2 C12 . Results The high-fat diet induced obvi-ous IR and upregulated ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP in skeletal muscle of rats, and these responses were attenuated by treatment with fenofibrate. Incuba-tion of myotubes with palmitic acid or tunicamycin sig-nificantly increased expression of ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP. Meanwhile, insulin-stimulated phosphoryl-ation of Akt was inhibited obviously. Pre-incubation with FA markedly inverted PA-induced ERS and insu-lin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt. Conclusion Fenofibrate ( fenofibric acid) has obvious effects of IR on skeletal muscle tissues and cells, which may be re-lated with reduced expression of GRP78 and CHOP in ERS.

BACKGROUND:YOUMET cervical dilating rod is made of absorbent polymer materials and has non-toxic side effects, which can avoid cross-infection in one-time use. OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effects of YOUMET cervical dilating rod used for cervical orifice dilation before intrauterine device insertion and removal as wel as before artificial abortion operations. METHODS:Totaly 275 female subjects schedule for cervical dilation during intrauterine device insertion and removal operations, and suction abortion for pregnancy within 10 weeks were randomly divided into two groups: 137 were included in observation group in which YOUMET cervical dilating rods were applied and 138 were included in control group in which Gongshuning glue sticks were used. Their cervical softening and dilatation situation, analgesic effect, and combined reactions during operation were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Between the two groups, no statistical significance in general biological characteristics was found; Dilating effects in intrauterine device removing operations during child-bearing period and menopause were better in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). Rates of pain during insertion were higher in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). Rates of pain during indweling period for both groups were comparatively low, which showed no statistical significance. There was no record related to the application of cervical orifice dilating products in postoperative folow-up visit. Both products were safe with no cervical injury, slow heart rate and drop in blood pressure. YOUMET cervical dilating rod has trustworthy and safe dilating effects, which can remarkably aleviate pain.
