Recently,much interest has been focused on the clinical application and biology of tumor-derived DNA in the plasma/serum of cancer patients.Such interest has resulted in the demonstration of human papillomavirus(HPV) DNA in the plasma/serum of patients with cervical cancer(CC).The studies used different materials(plasma /serum),different DNA extraction methods and different primers to detect circulating free HPV DNA,so the positive rates varied from(6.9%) to 50%.The HPV DNA in the plasma/serum of patients suffering from CC most likely originates from the tumor itself,which will probably provide us with a new tool for CC monitoring after primary treatment,especially in patients in advanced stages.It is expected that this promising molecular tumor marker would soon be put into routine clinical use.

Objective:To explore the infuence of calf spleen extractive injection combined with chemotherapy on immune function of the patients after colorectal carcinoma. Methods:Totally 128 cases of postoperative colorectal carcinoma patients were randomly di-vided into two groups with 64 ones in each. The control group only received FOLFOX 4 regimen, while the study group received calf spleen extractive injection additionally from the first day to the tenth day, 10ml, ivd, and 14-day was one cycle. After 4 weeks, im-mune function, peripheral blood leukocytes ( WBC) , hemoglobin ( Hb) and platelet ( Plt) in the two groups were compared, and the adverse reactions were evaluated as well. Results: After the treatment, CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4/CD8 were increased in the study groups, and those in the study group were much higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, there were no significant changes in WBC, Plt and Hb in the two groups (P>0. 05), while WBC and Plt in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Calf spleen extractive injection combined with chemotherapy not only can increase the immune func-tion, but also alleviate myelosuppression and gastrointestinal toxicity in the treatment of postoperative colorectal carcinoma patients.

Objective:To distinguish lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET-based radiomic features. Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 182 patients (109 males, 73 females, age (59.0±8.3) years) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT scan between January 2018 and December 2019 in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. All patients had been diagnosed pathologically with lung ADC or SCC. The patients were divided into a training set ( n=91) and a validation set ( n=91) using simple random sampling method. Radiomic features were extracted from the PET images of segmented tumors using the Python package. The minimum redundancy maximum relevance feature selection algorithm and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator were employed to select informative and non-redundant features, and a radiomics signature score (rad-score) was developed. Differences of rad-score between groups were compared by Mann-Whitney U test. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to select the important factors. A combined model was constructed based on the clinical variable and radiomics signature. The predictive performance of models was analyzed and compared using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Delong test. Results:Four radiomic features, namely HHL_first order_maximum, LHL_first order_entropy, HHH_ gray level dependence matrix_large dependence high gray level emphasis (GLDM_LDHGLE), HHL_GLDM_LDHGLE (H/L represent the high/low pass filter) were selected to build the rad-score. The rad-score showed a significant ability to discriminate between different histological subtypes in the two sets(training set: -1.30(-1.70, -1.04) vs -0.60 (-1.11, 0.20), z=-4.61, P<0.001); validation set: -1.31(-1.66, -0.96) vs -0.73(-1.02, -0.24), z=-4.76, P<0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) of the rad-score were equal to 0.815 (95% CI: 0.723-0.906) in the training set, and 0.813 (95% CI: 0.726-0.901) in the validation set, respectively, which were larger than those of the clinical variables (smoking had the best prediction performance, training set: 0.721 (95% CI: 0.617-0.810), validation set: 0.726 (95% CI: 0.623-0.814)), however, the difference was not significant ( z values: 1.319, 1.324, both P>0.05). When the clinical variable (smoking) and radiomics signature were combined, the complex model showed a better performance in the classification of histological subtypes, with the AUC increased to 0.862 (95% CI: 0.785-0.940; sensitivity: 88.00%(22/25), specificity: 72.73%(48/66)) in the training set and 0.854 (95% CI: 0.776-0.933; sensitivity: 75.00%(21/28), specificity: 84.13%(53/63)) in the validation set. The AUC values were significantly higher than those of the clinical variable (smoking; training set: z=3.257, P<0.001; validation set: z=3.872, P<0.001). Conclusion:Individualized diagnosis model incorporating with smoking and radiomics signature can help differentiate lung cancer subtypes in a non-invasive, repeatable modality.

Objective To explore the effects of music intervention on growth and development of premature infants. Methods 112 premature infants were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 56 cases in each. The control group received conventional nursing measures, and the observation group was simultaneously given music intervention besides the conventional routine nursing measures. Weight increase, hospitalization time, milk-intake volume and feeding tolerance were compared between the two groups. Results The weight increase in the observation group was higher than that in the control group. Hospitalization time and rate of feeding intolerance for the observation group was lower compared with that of the control group. The premature infants in the observation group took in more milk than those in the control group. Conclusions Music intervention can elevate feeding tolerance, facilitate nutrition and increase weight of premature infant, so it is beneficial to the growth and development of premature infant.

Objective To investigate the effect of curcumin on chronic pancreatitis in rat.Methods Eighteen one-month old male SD rats were randomly divided into control group,ANP group and curcumin group with 6 rats in each group.After fed by 25％ alcohol for twelve weeks,the rats in ANP group were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharides ( LPS,2 mg/kg body weight) once a week for 4 weeks.The rats in curcumin group were fed with curcumin when they were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharides.Seventeen weeks later,the rats were sacrificed.Serum glucose was measured,pancreatic morphology was routinely examined,collagen deposition was determined by Masson stain,and the amylase and lipase in pancreatic tissue were evaluated,TGF-β1 mRNA was determined by using RT-PCR.Results The pathological score of control group,ANP group and curcumin group was 1.17 ±0.41,7.33 ±2.58 and 3.50 ± 1.05,and the score in curcumin group was lower than that of ANP group (P ＜ 0.01 ),but which was higher than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no difference in the serum glucose among the groups.The levels of amylase and lipase in pancreatic tissue were (7348 ± 102 ),( 14135 ± 1272) U/g,which were significantly higher than those in ANP group[( 5428 ± 547 ) and (9123 ± 1250 ) U/g,P ＜ 0.05].The expressions of TGF β1 mRNA in control group,ANP group and curcumin group were 0.618 ± 0.019,0.818 ±0.012,0.745 ±0.088,and the values in ANP group were significantly higher than those in control group and curcumin group (P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions On the basis of long term ethanol intake,repeatedly intraperitoneal injection of LPS can induce chronic pancreatitis,and curcumin has anti-fibrosis effect possibly by its inhibitory effect on the expression of TGF-β1.

Objective　To summarize the experience in diagnosis and treatment of rare type of hepatic benign tumor and tumor-like lesions.Methods　The clinical data of 58 cases of uncommon benign hepatic tumor and tumor-like lesions admitted to Changhai Hospital from January 1980 to June 2000 were retrospectively reviewed. Results　Of the 58 cases, 26 were inflammatory pseudotumors, 8 focal hyperplastic lesions, 7 hepatocellular adenomas, 7 lipomatous tumors, 5 cystadenomas, 3 tuberculosis, 1 harmatoma and 1 neurofibroma. 82.8% of the cases had symptoms, 17.2% without obvious symptoms. Single lesion was found in 93.1%, multiple lesions in 6.9%. Operative procedures as follows: 30 local resections of the lesion, 14 hepatic segmentectomies, 9 hepatic lobectomies, 2 hepatic artery ligations, 1 hepatic artery ligation plus drainage of cyst, 2 liver biopsies. No operative mortality and no serious morbidity were noted. Conclusions　With popularization of advanced imaging techniques, the incidences of the benign tumor and tumor-like lesions of the liver have been increased in recent years. However, current imaging studies lack specificity, and differential dignosis of these lesions remains difficult. So we should be familiar with the clinical behavior, presentation of imagings and management of the diseases mentioned above.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of pedical conjunctival flap transposition on refractory corneal ulcer. Methods The data of 56 eyes of 56 patients with refractory corneal ulcer who underwent pedical conjuctival transposition in a tertiary eye unit in China from June 2005 to June 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 36 infective corneal ulcers, 9 keratoplasty graft ulcers, 4 traumatic ulcers, and 7 chemical burn ulcers. All patients were treated with focal debridement and pedical conjuctival flap transposition. Results Forty-seven out of 56 (83.9%) were cured after one surgery, and 5 (8.9%) had conjunctival flap retraction, among which 3 underwent the second surgery and 2 had the third surgery to completely heal. Four patients (7.2%) turned to lamellar keratoplasty because of fungal corneal ulcer relapse. Ulcer in 52 patients healed and the globe preserved. They had different levels of vision improvement. Conclusion Pedical conjunctival flap transposition is effective for refractory corneal ulcer.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for pharmacokinetic study of luteolin and cynaroside in rats and to determine pharmacokinetic parameters. METHODS:16 SD rats were randomly divided into luteolin group (sublingual iv,1.34 mg/kg) and cynaroside group(sublingual iv,0.64 mg/kg). 0.5 ml blood were collected before administration and 0,15,30 min and 1,2,3,4,6, 8,12,24,48 h after administration respectively to prepare plasma. UPLC-TQ-MS was adopted to determine plasma concentration, and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. A CORTECSTM UPLC? C18(100 mm×2.1 mm,1.6 μm)column was used with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water (containing 0.1% formic acid) at a flow rate of 0.4 ml/min,the column temperature was set at 40 ℃,and quercetin was used as internal standard. RESULTS:The linear range of luteolin and cynaroside were 2.5-500 ng/ml (r=0.998 2) and 10-2 500 ng/ml (r=0.993 5). The lowest quantitation limits were 1 and 2.5 ng/ml,and extraction were 70.75%-87.72% and 75.40%-91.18%(n=6);RSD of inter-day and intra-day were all lower than 10%(n=3). Pharmacokinetic parameters as t1/2 were (1.88 ± 0.32) and (1.57 ± 0.08) h;CL were (0.77 ± 0.18) and (0.06 ± 0.01) L/(h·kg);AUC0-6 h were (189.60±40.04)and(1 093.14±187.36)ng·h/ml;AUC0-∞ were(195.18±38.37)and(1 097.11±188.07)ng·h/ml. CONCLU-SIONS:The method can be used for pharmacokinetic study of luteolin and cynaroside in rats,and the pharmacokinetics of them in rats are in line with two-compartment model.

Objective To determine the effect of Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 ( Nrf2 ) on acute hephrotoxicity induced by CCl4 in male rat.Methods 20 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group and CCl4 group, 10 rats in each group, another 10 male Wistar rats were transgenic rats microinjection through the carrier, obtained the Nrf2-tk gene integration and specific transgenic rats, as the CCl4 +Nrf2 integration group.The groups was given 1%polysorbate 80 for 4 days,Then the CCl4 and CCl4 +Nrf2 integration group were intraperitoneally injected with a single dose of CCl47.5 mg· kg-1 and were killed 24 h after CCl4 injection.The serum chemical parameters including asparate aminotransferase ( AST) ,alanine aminotransferase ( ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH) were measured.Also malonaldehyde ( MDA) ,glutathione ( GSH) ,oxidized glutathione ( GSSG) levels in the liver as well as glutathione ( GSH)/oxidized glutathione ( GSSG ) ratios were detected. Histopathologic changes in the liver were examined. Results F1generation TK transgenic rats in liver and testis and other tissues and organs were not detected the transcription of Nrf2-tk, indicating that Nrf2-tk expression in tissues is specific good.Nrf2 significantly reduced serum AST, ALT and LDH levels in a dose-dependent manner.The results of MDA levels and GSH/GSSG ratios in liver and kidney showed that Nrf2 reduced CCl4-induced hepatic lipid peroxidation,and ameliorated glutathione depletion.The histopathologic results showed that Nrf2 restrained liver and kidney damage induced by CCl4 .Conclusion Nrf2 can effectively protect male rat from acute hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity induced by CCl4 .
