OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the expression of MIF, NF-κB p65 and IL-1β in the tissue of nasal polyps and normal inferior turbinate, to analyze their relevance, and to explore their role in nasal polyps.
METHOD:
The infiltrating results of EOS and others inflammatory cells in 48 cases diagnosed as nasal polyps (nasal polyps group) were detected by HE staining, and the expression of MIF, NF-κB p65 and IL-1β were investigated by immunohistochemistry. Twenty-one patients who were performed septoplasty orthotics were included as the control group; the VAS and Lund-Kennedy score were used to evaluate the degree of nasal polyps in patients and the correlation analysis was conducted between the disease severity and the expression levels of this three factors.
RESULT:
(1) The infiltrating results of EOS and the expression level of MIF, NF-κB p65, IL-1β in nasal polyps group are obviously higher than these in the control group (P < 0.05); Spearman correlation analysis shows that MIF, NF-κb p65 and IL-1β are positively correlated with each other (r = 0.74, 0.66, 0.60, P < 0.05); the nuclear activation rate of NF-κB p65 is positively correlated with MIF, IL-1β (r = 0.67, 0.63, P < 0.05); the infiltration degree of EOS is positively correlated with MIF, IL-1β (r = 0.49, 0.55, P < 0.05), but has no correlation with the NF-κB p65 and its nuclear activation rate. (2) The VAS grade of the nasal polyps group is 8.24 ± 1.72 and the nasal endoscopic examination grade is 8.63 ± 3.81. Spearman correlation analysis shows that the VAS grade is positively correlated with the level of MIF (r = 0.71, P < 0.05), but had no correlation with NF-κB p65, its nuclear activation rate and IL-1β. The nasal endoscopic examination grade is positively correlated with MIF and the nuclear activation rate of NF-κB p65 (r = 0.79, 0.73, P < 0.05), but has no correlation with the level of NF-κB p65 and IL-1β (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION
MIF, NF-κB p65 and IL-1β may promote the development of the nasal polyps, and there may exist the IL-1β--NF-κB--MIF approach in nasal polyps; MIF and NF-κB may participate in maintaining physiological function of inferior turbinate and have relations with the lightest sustained inflammation of inferior turbinate. The MIF and NF-κB p65 nuclear activation rate can be used as a standard of the nasal polyp severity and the judgement prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of 18 F?FDG PET/CT in untreated small cell lung cancer ( SCLC) . Methods A total of 49 SCLC patients( 35 males, 14 females, median age 61 years) with pathologically confirmed SCLC had underwent 18 F?FDG PET/CT scan before treatment from January 2008 to December 2013 and were retrospectively analyzed in this study. Clinical staging were mainly deter?mined by 18 F?FDG PET/CT scan. Performance status ( PS) was acquired according to the clinical symptoms before PET examination. Patients were followed up for at least 6 months and the survival interval was recor?ded. Two?sample t test, Kaplan?Merier, log?rank and Cox regression analysis were used for statistical analy?sis. Results (1)Among 49 patients, 20 died during the follow?up, 1 patient was lost to follow?up, and 45 patients(91.84%) had metastasis. Patients with limited disease (LD) and extensive disease (ED) were 27 and 22 respectively according to 18F?FDG PET/CT imaging. (2)The median OS was 23.68 months and me?dian PFS was 19.93 months. LD patients had significantly longer OS and PFS than ED patients (35.30 months vs 12.57 months, 28.87 months vs 11.30 months;χ2=18.810, 13.647, both P<0.05). (3)SUVmax of primary tumor ranged from 1.97 to 21.50. The SUVmax of primary foci had no difference between LD(8.27± 3.14) and ED(9.68±5.36)patients(P>0.05). SUVmax of primary tumor showed no significant correlation with OS and PFS (both P>0.05).There were no significant differences in OS and PFS between low SUVmax group and high SUVmax group in both LD and ED patients (χ2=0.001-0.565, all P>0.05). (4) Staging based on 18 F?FDG PET/CT results and PS score were independent prognostic factors ( hazard ratios:3.93, 5?00, both P<0.05) , while SUVmax showed no significant prognostic value. Conclusions PS score before PET scan and imaging staging based on 18 F?FDG PET/CT results are independent prognostic factors. The predictive value of primary foci SUVmax needs further investigation.

AIM: To determine the role of the glycocalyx in microvascular permeability. METHODS: Dextran was intravenously injected and quatitatively examined in the rat transient cerebral ischemic model. At the same time, endothelial glycocalyx (anionic sites) was labelled with the probe cationic gold colloid (CGC) using post-embedding technique and examined with electron microscope. RESULTS: The labeling of CGC decreased significantly following ischemia, meanwhile, microvascular permeability to dextran increased. CONCLUSION:Endothelial glycocalyx is very sensitive to ischemia or anoxia. Its disruption may be the initiator of the dysfunction of endothelium and the determinant of increased permeability.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, histopathological patterns, and methods of diagnosis and treatment of primary malignant duodenal tumors. Methods The data of 82 patients with primary malignant duodenal tumors confirmed by pathology and admitted to our hospital over a 10-year period were analyzed retrospectively. Results Tumor location:Tumors were located in the peripapilla region in 64 cases, at the descending portion of the duodenum in 11 cases, at other regions of the duodenum in 7 cases. The common presenting symptoms and signs were abdominal pain in 57 cases, jaundice 53 cases, and gastrointestinal bleeding in 41 cases. In these patients, radical resection of tumor was performed in 36 cases, palliative resection of tumor in 31cases,and operative intervention was not done in 15 cases.The 5-year survival rate of followed-up patients in this group was 2.4%. Conclusions The common presenting symptoms and signs of patients with primary malignant duodenal tumors were abdominal pain, jaundice and GI bleeding, but these patients usually lack specific symptoms and signs. The chief pathologic type is adenocarcinoma and the predisposed site of occurrence is the duodenal papillary region and the descending duodenum . CT, B ultrasonography and gastroduodenoscopy are the chief measures for the diagnosis of primary duodenal malignant tumors, and surgical resection is the main modality of treatment of this disease. The prognosis of primary duodenal malignant tumors is very poor.

This study was aimed to evaluate impacts on immune regulation with spleen-strengthening and kidney-tonifying method among advanced malignant tumor patients. The enrolled advanced malignant tumor patients were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group. The control group was treated with conventional treatment plan. The treatment group was treated with spleen-strengthening and kidney-tonifying Chinese herbs on the basis of conventional treatment plan for three months. Clinical effect, integral of clinical symptom (ICS), T-lym-phocyte subsets, and drug safety index were observed and detected before and after treatment. The results showed that the effective rate and response rate in the control group were 31.1% and 71.1%, respectively. And the effective rate and response rate in the treatment group were 54.2% and 85.4%, respectively. The treatment group was better than the control group (P< 0.05). Compared to the control group, the treatment group had obvious regulation on T-lymphocyte subsets. The improvement on ICS in the treatment group was better than the control group (P < 0.05). There was no obvious adverse reaction with the application of Chinese herbs. It was concluded that the spleen-strengthening and kidney-tonifying method can improve clinical effect, life of quality, and reduce adverse reaction a-mong advanced malignant tumor patients. Its mechanism may be through the regulation of immune function.
