Objective To investigate the oxidative damage of lead acetate and sodium arsenite to human immortalized keratinocytes line HaCaT and the protective effects of TFBP extracted from the leaves of broussoneria papyifera. Methods Cultured immotlalized keratinocytes line HaCaT were treated by 0.1 mmol/L lead acetate and 5.0 ?mol/L sodium arsenite respectively,and 0~200 mg/L TFBP were added to the culture media at the same time. The contents of malondialdehyde(MDA?雪,the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)in the cultured HaCaT cells were determined. The protective effects of TFBP at different concentrations were evaluated. Results 0.1 mmol/L lead acetate caused oxidative damage to HaCaT cells markedly. When the concentrations were increased to more than 100 mg/L,TFBP had certain protective effects from the damage induced by lead acetate with the decrease of the MDA levels from 4.23 ?mol/L to 1.87 ?mol/L and the increase of the SOD levels from 25.90 U/mg Pro to 37.12 U/mg Pro,while the activities of GSH-Px showed no significant change. The activities of SOD and GSH-Px were increased in the cultured cells treated by sodium arsenite with 150 mg/L and 200 mg/L TFBP. Conclusion Lead acetate and sodium arsenite could cause significant oxidative damage to HaCaT cells and TFBP had certain protective effects on the cells from the oxidative damage induced by lead acetate and sodium arsenite under the conditions of this study.

Objective To simulate the process of hypoxic?ischemic brain injury at high altitude in a simulated cabin with plateau low pressure environment, and to prepare a rat model of cerebral injuries at different high altitudes. Method Thirty?two 0?day?old neonatal SD rats were divided into four groups, namely group A ( control group) and three test groups:group B (2000 m group), group C (4000 m group), and group D (6000 m group). The rats of control group were reared in a barrier environment. The rats of test groups were placed in a simulated cabin with plateau low pressure environment, and to prepare neonatal cerebral ischemia?hypoxia model by sport activities. The sport movements were carried out in the cabin in a swimming groove 60 min/d, and not less than 20 hours a day at high altitude low pressure environment. Zea Longa 5 point scale standard was used to determine the behavioral scores at the 3 th 7 th 11 th 15 th days, and samples were collected on the 15th day to observe red blood cell morphology using HE and 2, 3, 5?triphenyltetrazolium chloride ( TTC ) staining and ultrastructure by scanning electron microscopy. Result ( 1 ) The neurological scores of the test groups A, B, C were significantly different from that of the control group (P<0?05), and the scores of test group D and control group were very significantly different ( P <0?01 ) . ( 2 ) The histopathological examination using HE staining showed inflammatory cell infiltration in all rats of the test groups, and the extent of inflammatory cell infiltration was positively correlated with the increase of altitude. ( 3 ) The histopathology with TTC staining revealed prominent ischemia in the cerebral cortex of rats in the plateau hypoxic environment. ( 4 ) Scanning electron microscopy showed that the rat erythrocytes were cap?like in the group B, irregular in the group C, and zigzag shape in the group D. Conclusions In this study, a rat model of neonatal hypoxic?ischemic encephalopathy ( HIE) is successfully established by hypoxic cabin combined with sport activity. This model is stable, reliable, more closely mimicking the pathogenesis and clinical manifestation of neonatal HIE than models prepared with other methods, therefore, may be used in related research.

BACKGROUNDTo study the effect and safety of tissue specific gene therapy of suicide gene for lung adenocarcinoma.
METHODSRetroviral vector of G1CEACDNa contained a carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) promoter regulated cytosine deaminase expression cassete (CEA/CD). By means of infection of virus, tissue specific expressing vectors and non-specific expressing vectors were transfected into A549 cell, which was CEA-producing lung adenocarcinoma cell line and then xenografted in nude mice, and the anti-tumor effect was evaluated. Then the retrovirus was injected directly into the tumor mass on nude mice, and the sensitivity of the xenograft to G1CEACDNa/5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) and the side effects were observed.
RESULTS(1) After transfected and untransfected A549 cells were implanted into nude mice, there was no difference in tumor formation among all the groups. (2) After 5-FC administration, the tumor transfected with tissue-specific gene displayed a higher sensitivity to the drug than those treated with non-specific in vitro gene-therapy. (3) The tumor-bearing nude mice were randomized in a blind manner based on comparable size to receive the supernatant of recombinant retrovirus G1CEACDNa followed by 5-FC, and significant growth suppression could be observed. (4) Comparing to the group with injection of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) alone, tissue-specific suicide gene therapy showed lower suppression to bone marrow.
CONCLUSIONSThe results suggest that tissue-specific suicide gene therapy may play an important role in individual treatment of lung cancer.

AIM: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral oxycodone /acetaminophen or tramadol in early postoperative patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological operations. METHODS: 120 gynecologic patients receiving laparoscopy operation were enrolled in a randomized,double blind, placebo controlled, multi center clinical trial with early oral analgesics if the vasual analgesia scores (VAS) was scored higher than 3.0. All patients were randomly received a single dose of oral analgesic: oxycodone/acetaminophen, tramadol or placebo, respectively. For rescue medication, PCA pump was provided in all three groups with a dose of 1 mg morphine and lockout of 5 minutes. The VAS scores, pain relief, PCA morphine consumption and side effects were evaluated at the following occasions of 0.25 , 0.5 , 0.75 , 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 h throughout the study. RESULTS: The VAS scores and pain relief were significantly different in three groups at 0.75 , 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 h. The VAS scores and PCA morphine consumption was significantly lower in oxycodone/acetaminophen and tramadol groups than those in placebo group. Pain relief in oxycodone/acetaminophen and tramadol groups was better than those in placebo group. The incidence of side effects such as nausea and vomiting significantly increased in tramadol group at 24 h compared with those in the other two groups. CONCLUSION: Early oral administration of oxycodone /acetaminophen or tramadol can provide surgical patients with good and safe postoperative analgesia after laparoscopy gynecologic operation. The incidence of side effects in oxycodone /acetaminophen group is lower than that in tramadol group in this clinical trial.

Objective:To obtain the prevalence laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD), anxiety and depression in otorhinolaryngology outpatients and to explore the role of mental and psychological factors (anxiety and depression) in their pathogenesis.Methods:A questionnaire survey of reflux symptom index(RSI) scale and hospital anxiety and depression (HAD) scale were used to report 1 111 cases of outpatients in Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Peking University People′s Hospital, from July 2017 to June 2018 (486 males, 625 females, age of 18-96 years old, median age of 38[30,53] years old) and to obtain the prevalence of LPRD, anxiety and depression. RSI-positive patients were selected in the case group, and RSI-negative patients were selected in the control group. The differences in HAD scores between the two groups were compared, and the risk factors of laryngopharyngeal reflux were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 20.0 software.Results:There were 151 cases in the case group and 960 cases in the control group. The prevalence of LPRD was 13.59% (151/1 111).There was no significant difference in the prevalence of LPRD between different genders ( P>0.05). The prevalence rate was the highest in the 18-40 age group, and the difference in the prevalence of all age groups (18~ 40 years old; 41-65 years old; >65 years old) was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The prevalence of LPRD among smokers and non-drinkers was higher than that of non-smokers and non-drinkers and the prevalence of the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The most common symptoms of the RSI scale were pharyngeal foreign body sensation (92.72%,140/151), persistent clearing throat (88.74%,124/151), excessive sputum or nasal reflux (82.12%, 124/151). There were significant statistical differences between the two groups ( P<0.05). Ninty-one patients with anxiety, the prevalence was 8.19%(91/1 111); 76 patients with depression, the prevalence was 6.84%(76/1 111).Among the LPRD patients, the hospital anxiety scale scored 29.14% (44/151), and the hospital depression scale scored 17.22% (26/151). The scores of anxiety symptoms and depressive symptoms in the LPRD group were higher than those in the non-LPRD group. The above scores were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking, anxiety and symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease were independent risk factors for laryngopharyngeal reflux. Conclusions:The prevalences of LPRD, anxiety and depression in the otorhinolaryngology clinic are 13.59%, 8.19% and 6.84%, respectively. Among patients with laryngopharyngeal reflux, the prevalence of anxiety is 29.14%, and the prevalence of depression is 17.22%. Age, smoking, drinking, alcohol consumption, education level, course of disease, symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease, pharyngeal foreign body sensation, etc. are related to LPRD. Mental factors (anxiety and depression) may play a role in LPRD. Smoking, anxiety symptoms and symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease are closely related to the incidence of LPRD.
