1.The detection and clinical significance of circulating tumor cells in the peripheral blood of patients with colorectai cancer
International Journal of Surgery 2011;38(8):552-555
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancer.Despite the survival rate of patients with metastatic disease has been raised due to the combination therapy of chemotherapy and opetation,few longterm survivors exist.The detection of circulating tumor cells (CTC) is an evolving technology whose significance has been discussed for more than a century.The advence of modem technology has allowed for more reliable detection of CTCs,and recent studies have provided compelling evidence that CTCs can predict clinical outcome in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).In this review,we will discuss the evidence for CTC significance,with particular focus on detection methods,novel markers,and clinical outcomes in CRC,and future challenges in testing them as a means to individualize the therapy of mCRC patients.

Objective To evaluate the value of pre-S1 Ag in combined detection of hepatitis B virus. Methods 288 patients' serums with chronicity type B hepatitis (CHB)were collected when they had been detected with HBV-DNA,HBVM or ALT/AST,and then ELISA assay were applied to detect pre-S1Ag. Results A total of 288 patients ,including 175 males and 113 females( their meso-age is 36.89 years old) were recruited into this study. 161 patients were pre-S1 Ag positive(68.4%), 197 patients' HBV DNA contents exceeded 5.0E + 2 copy/ml(55.9%) ,71patients were H BeAg positive (24.6%), 186 patients were HBeAg negative (64.58%). The rate of 64 patients' ALT and AST exceeded 0. 84, and their' ALT exceeded 40 u/ml ( 22. 2% ). 60 patients' AST exceeded 50 u/ml (20. 8% ). These patients were divided into pre-S1 Ag positive group and pre-S1 Ag group. In pre-S1 Ag positive group, 124 patients' HBV DNA contents exceeded 5.0E + 2 copy/ml( 62.9% ), 118 patients were HBeAg negative (59.8%). When HBV DNA content was less than 5.0E+2 copy/ml,pre-S1 Ag positive rate was 35.2% and pre-S1 Ag negative rate was 63.6%. when HBV DNA content was less than 5.0E + 3 copy/ml, pre-S1 Ag positive rate was 56.9% and pre-S1 Ag negative rate was 81.7%. When HBV DNA content exceeded 5.0E + 5 copy/ml but less than 5.0E + 8 copy/ml ,pre-S1 Ag positive rate was 33% and pre-S1 Ag negative rate was 14.3% ,so two groups had significant difference. Conclusion Pre-S1 Ag positive and HBeAg negative in the CHB patients serums signify virus replication,and it can help us decide prognosis.

50?10~9/L in MP group was 1,10,19,19 and in control group was 0,0,2,2,respectively.The ratio of the total effi- ciency was 93.7% in the treatment group and 80.6% in control group,respectively.The clinical efficacy was dif- ferent significant between groups after 2 weeks(P0.05).Conclusion High dose MP is more effective in the patients and with obvious hemorrhagic tendency than that those of the tradition- al treatment;whereas the traditional treatment is available for other severe ITP patients.

Objective To investigate the application of automatic biopsy gun in CT-guided percutaneous biopsy for the diagnosis of pulmonary sub-centimeter nodules (≤1 cm).Methods A total of 78 patients with pulmonary sub-centimeter nodules were enrolled in this study. Under CT guidance, percutaneous multi-point and multi-sampling puncture biopsy with automatic biopsy gun was carried out in all patients. The success rate of puncturing, the complications and pathological results were analyzed. Results The success rate of puncturing was 91.0% (71/78). The incidence of pneumothorax was 17.9% (14/78) and the incidence of hemorrhage was 30.8%(24/78). In all patients, no pulmonary infection, tumor tract seeding or metastasis was observed during the follow-up period. Among the 71 patients who had a successful biopsy, squamous cell carcinoma was detected in 7, adenocarcinoma in 25, small cell carcinoma in 5, metastatic lesion in 3, chronic interstitial lung inflammation in 13, granulomatous inflammation in 12, pulmonary fungus in 4, pneumoconiosis nodule in one and pulmonary hamartoma in one. Conclusion For CT-guided percutaneous puncture biopsy of pulmonary sub-centimeter nodules, the use of automatic biopsy gun is safe and reliable with higher success rate.

Object To isolate and identify the flavones from the flower of Paulownia tomentosa (Thunb.) Steud., which has been used as traditonal herb medicine in the treatment of some diseases. Methods The flavones were isolated by column chromatography and their structures were elucidated through spectroscopic analysis (NMR). Results Five flavones were isolated and identified as 5, 4′-dihydroxy-7, 3′-dimenthoxyflavanone (Ⅰ), 5-hydroxy-7, 3′, 4′-trimenthoxyflavanone (Ⅱ), diplacone (Ⅲ), mimulone (Ⅳ) and apigenin (Ⅴ). Conclusion All these compounds are obtained from the flower for the first time and the flavones should be as bioactive constituents.

The management of emerging infectious diseases has always been given a high priority in public health. Identification of the epidemiological characteristics and transmission patterns of emerging infectious diseases is of great significance to contain the disease transmission and reduce the damages to public health and socioeconomic developments. Currently, infectious disease dynamics models are mainly established based on infectious disease surveillance data to predict the epidemiological patterns and trends of emerging infectious diseases; however, many model-based predictions fail to achieve the expected results due to the presence of multiple uncertain factors during the integrated management of infectious diseases. This review describes the basic principles and variables of common infectious disease dynamics models, including the susceptible-infected-recovered ( SIR ) model, susceptible-infected-removed-susceptible ( SIRS ) model, susceptible-exposed-infected-removed ( SEIR ) model and improved SEIR model, compares the advantages and disadvantages of these models, and summarizes the advances of the infectious disease dynamics models in the prediction of trends in incidence of emerging infectious diseases, so as to provide insights into the effective application of infectious disease dynamics models in the management of infectious diseases.

Objective To explore the effect of TNF-α in intracellular Ca~(2+)-overload associated myocardial injury. Methods Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:control group,Ca~(2+)+-paradox group,and pentoxifylline treatment group. The intracellular Ca~(2+)-overload rat model was established by pre-filling the rats with Langendorff for 20 minutes,isolated rat hearts subjected to Ca~(2+)-depletion for 5 minutes and Ca~(2+)-repletion for 30 minites(Ca~(2+)-paradox). Changes in hemodynamics indexes were monitored continuously. TNF-α in cardiac tissues was tested by ELISA method,and nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)in cardiac tissues was detected with Western blot. Results Dramatic depression in left ventricle contraction function was found in the Ca~(2+)-paradox hearts:significant decrease in left ventricular diastolic pressure(LVDP),markedly elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure(LVEDP),decreased dP/dt ratio,increased TNF-α content,decreased cytosolic/homogenate NF-κB ratio. All these changes in Ca~(2+)-paradox group were significantly attenuated upon the treatment with 100 μmol/L pentoxifylline. Conclusions Activation of NF-κB and increased production of TNF-α may play important roles in cardiac injury associated with intracellular Ca~(2+)-overload.
