Objective To analyze the adverse drug reactions(ADRs)of edaravone in treatment of patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI)by reviewing Chinese medical literature and to evaluate safety of edaravone treatment in ACI.Methods Publications from Pubmed and Chinese Biomedical Literature Datababe(CBMdisc)were reviewed and the ADR of edaravone was analyzed among the published 8645 cases.Literatures about randomed-control clinical trails(RCTs)on security of edaravone for treating ACI Was analyzed by meta-analysis.Results Abnormal hepatic function,especially mild elevation of aminotransferase,renal dysfunction and skin rash induced by edaravone were tIle most common ADRs.Among 8645 patients,ADRs were reported in 283(3.27 % ).The meta-analysis in RCTs showed that between the group treated with a combination of edaravone and routine and the group treated with routine treatment only,there was no significant difference in the occurrence rate of ADRs(OR=1.18,95 % CI0.70-2.00,P=0.536),elevation of aminotransferase(OR=1.23,95 % CI 0.57-2.68,P=0.595)or renal dysfunction including albuminutia,increased level of serum ereatinine and nitrogen(OR=1.65.95 % CI0.57- 4.79.P=0.353).Conclusion Edaravone has a low ADRs OCCurrence rate and iS safely used in cerebral infarction treatment.

Objective NKT cells are very important as a kind of non-specific immune cells. Much attention in antitumor significance has been received in the study of its effect on malignant diseases. The aim of this study was to detect the expression of NKT cells and its CD+8 NKT subsets in peripheral blood of esophageal patients and normal person, and to analyze the changes in the expression of NKG2D and NKG2A receptorsand its clinical pathological factors. Methods By flow cytometric analysis, 53 patients with esophageal carcinoma and 39 normal controls were analysed for peripheral blood of NKT cells and CD+8 NKT subsets, and the expression of NKT cells NKG2A and expression of NKG2D receptor. The clinical pathological factors were collected for the comparative analysis. Results Compared with the normal control group, the expression of NKT cells in peripheral blood of esophageal patients increased [(4.32±0.73) %, (5.97±1.29) %] (t =3.562, P <0.01), and the expression level of its surface receptor NKG2D reduced [(17.56±5.92) %, (15.12±1.56) %] (t =3.892, P <0.05), but the express levels of NKG2A [(4.02±1.41) %, (5.99±4.59) %] in creased (r = 4.015, P <0.05), those expression change with the development of the esophageal cancer. Conclusion The increased expression of NKT cells and CD+8 NKT subsets in the peripheral blood of patients with esophageal carcinoma refletcs that the immune feedback of patients' antineoplastic effect is strengthened. The decresed expression of the active receptor NKG2D and the increased expression of the inhibitory receptor NKG2A on NKT cells might be one of mechanisms leading to the reduction of NKT cell activity and immune escape of patients with esophageal carcinoma. The changes of surface receptors of NKT cells may be associated with the development of the esophageal cancer.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intra-articular dexmedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine for postoperative analgesia after arthroscopic knee surgery.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 20-64 yr,weighing 50-90 kg,with body height 160-180cm,scheduled for elective arthroscopic knee surgery,were randomly assigned into 2 equal groups using a random number table:ropivacaine group (group R) and dexmedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine group (group RD).In group R,the mixture of noraml saline 1 ml and 19 ml of 0.25％ ropivacaine was injected intra-articularly at the end of surgery.In group RD,the mixture of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg and 19 ml of 0.25％ ropivacaine was injected intra-articularly at the end of surgery.VAS scores at rest and during activity were observed and recorded at 1,2,4,8,12,20 and 24 h after surgery.The duration of analgesia after sugery (from the time immediately after intra-articular administration to the time of first administration of fentanyl as an adjunct to analgesia) and consumption of fentanyl at 24 h after surgery were recorded.Results Compared with group R,VAS scores were significantly decreased at 1,2,4 and 8 h after surgery,the duration of analgesia after sugery was prolonged,and the consumption of fentanyl at 24 h after surgery was reduced in group RD (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).There was no significant difference in VAS scores at 12-24 h after surgery between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Intra-articular dexmedetomidine can significantly improve the efficacy of ropivacaine for postoperative analgesia after arthroscopic knee surgery.

The tadpole extract without large molecular protein(T-871) was prepared from dry tadpoles. This extract and RPMI1640 medium were mixed in the ratio of 1:50(V/V) to form T-871 medium. HeLa cells were cultured in the T-871 medium in order to study the possible mechanism of HeLa cell differentiation induced by tadpole extract. We found that there was a decreased acitivity of LDH which may be released through HeLa cell membrane in the 2 day's cultured T-871 medium. After 3 day's culture in the T-871 medium we found that on the HeLa cell membranes, Na-K-ATPase activity reduced and the content of Con A receptors increased. When these cells were analyzed by flow cytometry(FACS-420), the results indicated that HeLa cells accumulated in G_2 and M phases of the cell cycle and the influence on DNA and RNA content of the HeLa cells was insignificant. HeLa cells cultured by RPMI 1640 medium or T-871 medium for 3 days were inoculated into the dorsal hypodermis of 12 nude mice, respectively. Then after 24 hours this extract was injected to each nude mouse at dose of 0.3 ml each day. Our study showed that T-871 could result in decrease of tumor formation such as delay of tumor nodule appearance and reduce of tumor weight. This study suggested that the changes of the cell membrane may be caused by the tadpole extract. It may also reduce malignancy of the HeLa cells.

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a rare form of chronic pancreatitis which is closely related with abnormal autoimmune.To some extent,it is too difficult to identify the diagnosis between AIP and pancreatic cancer.The treatment includes hormone therapy and surgery.In this article,based on accumulating the experience in the diagnosis and treatment of AIP cases for many years and reviewing the related literatures,we evaluate its type,the etiology and the clinical presentations,as well as summarize the typical characteristics of pathology,radiology and serology.

AIM:To analyze the characteristics of optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) in diabetic optic neuropathy ( DON ) retrospectively.
●METHODS:Retrospective study. A total of 175 cases of type ll diabetes with fundus lesions from Dec. 2013 to Dec. 2015 were selected and the clinical information was collected. These cases were diagnosed by consultation between Departments of Ophthalmology and Endocrinology in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiao Tong University. The results of body examination were recorded and cases were examined by color fundus photography, fluorescein fundus angiography ( FFA) and OCT. All these data were analyzed.
●RESULTS: A total of 49 cases ( 90 eyes, 25. 7%) were diagnosed DON through FFA which manifested abnormal fluorescence in optic papilla. Results of OCT showed:among 90 eyes of DON patients, 15 eyes ( 16. 7%) had normal optic nerve form; 20 eyes(22. 2%) of excavation of optic disc became smaller or disappeared, with prelaminar tissue and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) swelling;26 eyes (28. 9%) manifested optic cup deep and cup/disc ratio increasing;18 eyes (20. 0%) had tissue hyperplasia in the hollow or on the surface of optic disc; 11 eyes(12. 3%) had symptoms including vitreous traction optic papilla and optic disc rim rising. DON eyes which had similar fluorescence features could manifest different tissue morph by OCT.
●CONCLUSION: FFA defines DON by change of blood circulation in optic nerve. However, OCT can show differences of tissue morph of optic nerve that FFA fails to do. So OCT can manifest the causes and sites of optic neuropathy more clearly and also provide basis for treatment. The advantages of OCT are conducive to reviews and curative effect tracking among DON patients and these advantages including noninvasive, convenient, inexpensive and repeatable.

Three hundred cerebrovascular disease (CVD) patients (disease onset <3 days) were evaluated for serum C-reactive protein (CRP) level at admission, and Scandinavian Stroke Scale (SSS) or Oxford Handicap Scale (OHS) at baseline and 3 months. Based on serum CRP levels, the participants were divided into group A [CRP(1.20 ±0.35)mg/L], group B[CRP(4.98 ± 1.08) mg/L] or group C[CRP (19.34±12.27)mg/L]. Our results showed that serum CRP level was positively correlated with SSS (r = 0.39 or0.43, both P<0.01) and OHS (r=0.40 or0.42, both P<0.01) at3 months. Thus, evaluating serum CRP level within 3 clays of disease onset might be helpful in predicting clinical outcomes of CVD patients.
