microRNAs (miRNAs)are endogenous non-coding RNAs,which play important roles in the regulation of gene terms.miRNAs affect almost every physiological process of the body,and many diseases are related to the disorders of miRNAs.Current studies show that the abnormal expressions of miRNAs are closely relate to the tumorigenesis,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of gastric cancer.So miRNAs can be used as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the gastric cancer.

Objective To study the value of St George's respiratory questionaire(SGRQ)in evaluating the life quality of community patients with COPD.Methods The SGRQ score,PEF% were collected from 35 patient with COPD.Paired t test was performed to evaluate the sensitivity of SGRQ to changes of disease severity.Correla- tion coefficients were calculated to evaluate the validity.Results Three parts of the SGRQ score and the total score were significantly correlated with the changes of SGRQ(P＜0.001),SGRQ was more sensitive than PEF in evalu- ating the changes of disease severity.The three part of the scale and the total scale were significantly correlated with PEF%.Conclusion SGRQ is a valid,sensitive and feasible method in measuring the quality of life in community patients with COPD.

Objective:To investigate the infusion methods of postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with gastric cancer.Methods:86 patients with gastric cancer received radical operationin our hospital from January 2014 and December 2015 were enrolled for the study and randomly divided into continuous infusion group and periodic infusion group,each group with 43 cases.Patients in continuous infusion group were given postoperative continuous enteral nutrition for 24 h in one day,while cases in periodic infusion group were given postoperative continuous enteral nutrition for 15-17 h in one day.Results of enteral nutrition,physical indicators including upper arm skinfold,diameter of midpoint of upper arm and grip strength,nutritional indexes including total protein (TP),hemoglobin (Hb),albumin (AIb),prealbumin (PA) and transferrin(TF),immune indicators including immunoglobulin G(IgG),immunoglobulin M (IgM),immunoglobulin A (IgA),CD4+,CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+were compared between two groups before and after operation.Results:Intolerance of enteral nutrition occurred in 1 case(2.3％) of continuous infusion group and 3 cases(7.0％) of periodic infusiongroup,and there was no significant difference between them (P＞0.05).Time of transition to full enteral nutrition and taking off the tube to self-feeding incontinuous infusion group were significantly smaller than that in periodic infusion group (P＜0.05).There were no significant difference in baseline data,physical indicators,nutritional indexes and immune indicators between them before operation (P＞0.05).PA level at 5 d,10 d after operation in continuous infusion group were significantly higher than that in periodic infusion group (P＜0.05),and there were no significant difference in physical indicators,other nutritional indexes and immune indicators between them after operation(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Compared with periodic infusion,continuous infusion method could shorten the time of transition to full enteral nutrition and taking off the tube to self-feeding in patients after radical operation of gastric cancer,and had more significant effect of improvement of nutritional status,worthy of clinical popularization and application.

Objective To evaluate effects of ropivacaine combined with different concentrations of fentanyl for epidural labor analgesia. Methods In this multicenter double-blinded randomized study 128 parturients at full term and 2-3 cm of cervical dilatation who requested epidural analgesia were randomly allocated to one of 4 groups: group F0 received epidural ropivacaine alone (n = 33); group F1 received epidural ropivacaine with fentanyl 1 ?g?ml-1 (n = 30) ; group F2 epidural ropivacaine + fentanyl 2?g?ml-1(n = 33) and group F3 epidural ropivacaine + fentanyl 3 ?g?ml-1(n = 32). Epidural catheter was placed at L2,3 and advanced 4 cm into the epidural space in cephalad direction. A bolus of 15 ml of ropivacaine alone or with fentanyl was given after correct epidural placement was confirmed. EC50 of epidural ropivacaine was determined by up-and-down sequential experiment. The initial concentration of epidural ropivacaine was 0. 12% . If effective the next parturient received ropivacaine of lower concentration; if ineffective the ropivacaine concentration was increased. Each time the concentration of epidural ropivacaine increased/decreased by 0.01% . The analgesia was assessed using VAS score (0-10 0 = no pain, 10 = worst pain) . If VAS score was less than 3 within 30 min of ropivacaine administration, analgesia was defined as effective. EC50 of ropivacaine was calculated according to Dixon and Massey. Results Four of the 128 parturients enrolled were excluded because of uncertain results of interrupted observation. The EC50 of epidural ropivacaine for labor analgesia and the 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of EC50 were 0.110% (95% CI 0.109 0%-0.111 6%) in group F0; 0.089% (95% CI 0.087 7%-0.091 1%) in group F1; 0.073% (95% CI 0. 071 7%-0.0744%) in group F2 and 0.060% (95% CI 0.056 0%-0.634%) in group F3 respectively. The EC50 was significantly higher in group F0 than in group F1, F2 and F3 (P0.05) . The incidence of side-effect was significantly higher in group F3 than in group F0(P

Objective: To observe the effects of Chinese nutgalls ex tr acts on the secretion of IL-6 from monocytes induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS ) of Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg). Methods:Monocytes ob tained by separating human blood cells were stimulated with LPS of Pg at 25 ?g/ml, radioimmunoassay (RIA) was used to examine the effect of Chinese nutgal ls extracts at the concentrations of 6.25-100 ?g/ml on the secretion of IL-6 in the supernatant of the cell culture. Results:Chinese nutgalls extracts at the concentrations(?g/ml) of 6.25,12.50, 25.00 ,50.00 and 100.00 inhibited IL-6 secretion from monocytes by(%) 34.6,46.4,48.5,52.7 and 54.9 res pectively.Conclusions:Extracts from Chinese nutgalls may inhibit the secretion of IL-6 from monocyte induced by LPS of Pg in a dose-depend ent manner.

Objective To repair the experimental femoral head necrosis with the implantation of tricalcium phosphate (TCP) loaded with human bone morphogenetic protein-2(hBMP-2) gene transfected bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs). Methods Established the animal models of femoral head necrosis in 22 goats by the ligation of the lateral and medial circumflex femoral arteries and delivery of liquid nitrogen into femoral head. 4 goats served as the control group without any treatment. 3 weeks after surgery, necrotic bone in the other 18 goats were removed and TCP loaded gene transfer cells were implanted into the femoral head with BMP-2 gene transfected BMSCs in right side and ?-gal gene transfected BMSCs in left side. BMP-2 concentrations in femoral head were tested by the ELISA at 1st, 2nd, 3rd week after implantation. Histological observation was done before and at 6th, 10th, 16th week after implantation. New bone volumes (NBV) were measured at 16th week after implantation by the histomorphometry method. X-ray was taken at 16th week after operation in untreated group and after treatment in BMP-2 group and ?-gal group. Results The concentration of BMP-2 in femoral head of BMP-2 group was higher than that of ?-gal group at different time point. Empty lacunae and fibrotic marrow were demonstrated before implantation. New bone was evident in the implantation field of BMP-2 group while fibrous tissues were evident in that of ?-gal group at 6th, 10th and 16th week after treatment. Histomorphology analysis indicated that the NBV in BMP-2 group was significantly higher than that in ?-gal group. Articular surface collapse were observed in the X-ray photograph of untreated group. Regular shape and normal density of femoral head in BMP-2 group compared with the irregular shape and low density of femoral head in ?-gal group could be demonstrated in the X-ray photograph 16 weeks after treatment. Conclusion Implantation of the TCP loaded with human BMP-2 gene transfected BMSCs could repair early-stage experimental femoral head necrosis.
