Objective To investigate the safety,therapy and prophylactic effect of Omeprazole on stress ulcer in children with epidemic type B encephalitis.Methods Before and after medication,chest X-ray examination was performed.The result of occult blood(OB) was confirm by Colloidal gold assay in stool and/or gastric juice.Based on the result of OB,the patients were divided into therapy group[besides conventional therapy for encephalitis,Cimitidine group and Omeprazole group with positive result OB,was administered with 0.9% normal sodium 100 mL+Cimitidine 20-40 mg/(kg?d),iv,q12 h and normal sodium 100 mL+Omeprazol 0.5-0.8 mg/(kg?d),iv,qd,respectively] and prophylaxis group(Cimitidine group,Omeprazole group and control group,with negative result OB,were administered with same medicines as therapy group,respectively.Except control group being administered only 0.9%NS 100 mL,iv,(q12 h)).The effects of drugs on hemostasis,preventing hemorrhage,and the potential risk of acquired pneumonia result from drugs used were observed.Results In therapy group,the average time of hemostasis in Omeprazole group was obviously shorter than that of in Cimitidine group,there was significant difference between two groups(P0.05).Conclusions Both of the drugs is safety and effect to therapy or prophylaxis for the latent stress ulcer in short term.The effect of Omeprazole is better than those of Cimitidine.Using Cimitidine and Omeprazole,neither therapy nor prophylaxis for stress ulcer increaseds the potential risk of acquired pneumonia in children with epidemic type B encephalitis in this study.

Objective To study cortactin function in cancer cell endocytosis.Methods We applied cortactin siRNA interference to MDA-Mb-231,a human breast adenocarcinoma cell line in which cortactin was over-expressed,and introduced anti-cortactin immunoreagents into the cells with BioPorter system to interfere with cortactin function in vivo.Capture-ELISA assay was used to measure transferrin uptake.We used immunoblot assay to assess the effect of cortactin knock-down and immunoflurescence microscopy to examine the effect of cortactin down-regulation on transferrin uptake.Results Interference of cortactin function in cells resulted in impairment of transferrin endocytosis.Transferrin fluorescent intensity in cytoplasm in cortactin siRNA treated-cells was significantly reduced in comparison to that of mock-treated cells.Less than 50% of cells subjected to cortactin siRNA treatment had normal transferrin uptake.Endocytosis in MDA-Mb-231 cells introduced with cortactin antibodies was impaired as well,showing a 30%～ 60% reduction in transferrin uptake.Conclusion Crtactin,an actin-binding protein,plays an essential role in cell endocytosis.

Objective To explore the role of infection control in preventing infections in pregnancy-at-term(PAT)parturients with cervical incompetence. Method The strategies of infection control for 80 PAT parturients with cervical incompetence were enforced,including enhanced disinfection of hands,wards,cunnus,intensified care to skin,limited examinations of anus and pubes and prevention of complications. Results All the parturients and their babies were well and safe with one exception,who developed with infection but were cured and discharged by anti-infection managements,complement of energy and increase of nutrition intake. Conclusion Infection control may prevent the infections in PAT parturients with cervical incompetence,enhance the perinatal quality and ensure the safety of mothers and babies.

Objective To discuss the clinical application of lapraroscopic subtotal cholecystectomy in the acute cholecystitis with severe inflammatory and fibrous adhesions at calot triangle.Methods Retrospective analysis of the clinical data,surgical approaches,and short term and long term complications of 74 cases of acute cholecystitis in the period from January 2002 to September2005 in our hospital.Results In the 74 cases operated by subtotal cholecystectomy using laparoscopy,during laparoscopic procedure,71(95.9%) operations were successful;a case of Mirizzi syndrome could not be confirmed to have the residual stones in cystic duct and another case of the same syndrome was not confirmed to have the duodenum fistula.These two cases were then dealt with by conventional surgery and constituted 2.7% of the total cases.One case was dealtd with by second surgery because of the residual stones of cystic duct after lapraroscopic subtotal cholecystectomy and constituted 1.3% of the total cases.One case was found with minor bile leakage and constituted 1.3% of the total cases.Cholangiography was conducted 41 cases during operation,of whom,39 cases were normal and 2 cases failed.No death occurred with the operation of the lapraroscopic subtotal cholecystectomy.Conclusion It is safe and effective to apply laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy to treat acute cholecystitis with severe inflammatory and fibrous adhesions at calot triangle.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and surgical management experience of appendiceal carcinoid. Methods The clinical data of 32 patients with appendiceal carcinoid from 1978 to 1998 were retrospectively analyzed. Results 26 patients (26/32, 81 25%) manifested the sign and symptom of appendicitis, and 6 patients (6/32, 18 75%) with carcinoid were incidentally discovered. The tumors were less than 1cm in diameter in 25 patients, between 1 and 2 cm in 4 patients, and larger than 2 cm in 3 patients. Tumor invasion was confined to the appendix in 29 patients, involved in the mesoappendix in 2 patients, and one patient had local lymphonodus metastasis. Three carcinoid patients with tumor lymph-nodes metastasis in the mesoappendix underwent secondary right hemicolectomy, 2 patients underwent appendicocecostomy, and 27 patients underwent appendectomy. The follow-up was performed in 28 patients, and all patients remained free of tumor recurrence and metastasis. Conclusion Appendiceal carcinoid was rare, and most of the patients manifested the sign and symptom of appendicitis. Appendiceal carcinoid of less than 1 cm diameter could be adequately managed by appendectomy alone. Appendiceal carcinoid in basis of the appendix could be adequately managed by appendicocecostomy. The treatment approach for tumors of 1 to 2 cm in diameter was still controversial. The right hemicolectomy should be performed in the patients with larger than 2 cm in diameter tumors.

The query function was implemented about the number of the total snails the living snails and the schistosome infected snails of each survey frame. Conclusion The digital management of the snail data is realized by using the smartphone and Google Earth.

Objective To investigate the method of reducing the formation of fibrous capsule by means of changing the surface capacility of silicone breast implants. Methods N vinyl pyrrolidone ( N VP),the hydrophilic monomer, was grafted onto the surface of silicone breast implants by 60 C oradiation. 10 rabbits were used in this study and the implants were buried in the bilateral subcutaneous layers of the back of rabbits. The unchanged implants were used as the control group. At various interval, gross and microscopic examinations were made to observe the fiber capsule formation around the implants.Results Compared with the control group, the grafting implants induced slight histological reaction and the thickness of fiber capsule was decreased statistically in every time point ( P

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) catalyze the initial and rate limiting step in the catabolism of tryptophan, which is related to tumor immune tolerance and poor prognosis in patients. In this regard, two enzymes have become important therapeutic targets for tumor immunotherapy. So far, nine IDO1 inhibitors and three IDO1/TDO dual inhibitors have entered clinical trials. This review summarizes the research progress of IDO1 inhibitors, TDO inhibitors and IDO1/TDO dual inhibitors from the perspective of medicinal chemistry.

Objective To explore prognostic factors of the uterine papillary serous carcinoma (UPSC).Methods Twenty eight patients with UPSC in Cancer Hospital of Shantou University Medical College from January 2002 to August 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Prognostic factors were analyzed by univariate analysis.Results Twenty eight cases of UPSC with 6.3％ occurrence in the endometrial carcinoma admitted in the same period,including 14 cases of staging Ⅰ ～ Ⅱ,and 14 cases of staging Ⅲ.The univariate analysis showed that lymph-node metastasis and operative-pathological staging were significantly associated with the prognosis (P ＜ 0.05),but were not associated with the menopausal,postoperative treatment,operation style,deep myometrial invasion,cervical involvement,and annex invasion (P ＞ 0.05).Two cases of Ia-staging without myometrial infiltration and without added postoperative treatment were still alive.Conclusions Operative-pathological staging and retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy were independently prognostic factors of UPSC.The Ia-staging without myometrial infiltration might be without added postoperative treatment.
