Nasal NK/T cell lymphoma is a rare and distinct type of extranodal Non-Hodgkin' s lymphoma. Current study has proved that Radiotherapy is the most effective treatment method in the early stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma, but there is no universal standard for concrete radiotherapy modality, such as the radiation target, the radiation dose and preventive neck radiation. Most studies have proved that radiotherapy of extended field and higher dose achieved good effect in early stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma.And the studies also do not suggested preventive neck radiation in local stage patients, but it need further study in the extensive stage patients.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of nasal non-Hodgkin lymphoma(N-NHL) by four types of therapy such as pure chemotherapy, pure radiotherapy, chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy, and APBSCT combined with TBI. Methods One hundred and thirty five patients with nasal NHL were treated between 1980 and 2000. All patients received radiotherapy alone or chemotherapy alone or radiotherapy combined with radiotherapy or TBI combined with APBSCT. The median radiation dose to the nasal cavity was 56.0 Gy with a range of 35.2 to 75.5 Gy. Six patients received TBI combined APBSCT. The TBI dose was 8 Gy. Two patients received 30 Gy in nasal of the six patients. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of 2-6 cycles of COP, COPP, COMP, CHOP, COBDP. Results The local control rate and 5-year survival rate of the four groups of pure chemotherapy, pure radiotherapy, combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy and APBSCT combined with TBI were 12 %, 69 %, 76 %, 83 % and 9 %, 52 %, 63 %, 83 %. For the four groups, the best is APBSCT, then combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy group ,then pure radiotherapy, the last is pure chemotherapy. There is significant difference between the four groups(P

Objective To observe the relationship between expression changes of γH2AX and the radiosensitivity of lung cancer cells in vitro. Methods The radiosensitivity of lung cancer cell lines A549 and SBC-3 was measured by clone forming assay. The DSBs damage of lung cancer cell lines A549 and SBC-3 was determined by Western blot assay. Re-sults The clone forming rates of lung cancer cell lines A549 and SBC-3 were gradually decreased with the increased radia-tion dose.γH2AX expression was related to the cell radiosensitivity 1 hour and 6 hours after radiated. Conclusion The phosphorylated histoneγH2AX is a powerful tool to monitor DNA DSBs and to predict the radiosensitivity in lung cancer ra-diotherapy.

Objective To observe osteocyte survival and osteogenesis after nonvascularized free bone graft transplantation for canine mandible mass defect restoration. Methods An experimental canine premolar was extracted. 1 month later, the length of 3.0 cm edentulous mandible was cut off, as the same length as that nonvascularized and soft-free tissue complete ilium block was cut off and fixed into mandible defect in 40, 120 min. The survival osteocyte and osteogenesis of the nonvascularized graft were detected 4 and 8 weeks after transplantation. Results The continuity of canine mandible segmental defect of 3.0 cm length was repaired by free nonvascularized free bone graft, live osteocytes and osteogenesis were observed in non-vascularized free bone graft at off-body 40 min group in 4-8 weeks. But the nonvascularized free bone graft off-body 120 min was a dead bone, no survival osteocytes were observed, some osteoclasts were seen in the bone graft. Conclusion The length of 3.0 cm canine mandible defect can be restored by non-vascularized free bone graft; the osteocyte survival and osteogenesis are related to their off-body time before they are fixed into recipient.

BACKGROUND: Microcarrier culture technology has become a new and large scale cell culture technology. It has been mainly used in the amplification research of tissue engineering seed cells. Microcarder possesses the advantage of larger surface area and plays an essential role in microcarrier culture technology.OBJECTIVE: To sum up the biomaterials and methods of microcarrier preparation, and provide theoretical foundation for the study of microcarrier culture technology and tissue engineering.METHODS: Articles were retrieved from PubMed, Wanfang, and VIP databases with the key words of "micrecarrier, biomaterials cell culture, tissue englneering" in both English and Chinese between 1967/2009 and 1990/2009, respectively. Inclusion criteria:study addressing microcarrier materials, preparation, and performance; study of microcerrier cell culture; animal experiments and clinical applications. A total of 34 articles were originally retrieved based on their titles and abstracts.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Although a lot of studies have reported research and preparation of microcarrier, clinical application remains still difficult. Recently, varying materials will be made into novel compound materials by new technology,which can adjust mechanics and biodegredation of microcarder via surface modification.

Objective To understand the birth conditions of newborns in four cities of China and its trend. Methods The physical development data of single live newborns in 4 cities of Beijing, Harbin, Changsha and Guangzhou were investi-gated by random cluster sampling method, and was compared with the national neonatal growth standard developed from the investigation in 15 cities from 1986 to 1987. Results The study investigated a total of 5 539 newborns:1 412 in Beijing, 1 410 in Harbin, 1 274 in Changsha and 1 443 in Guangzhou. Except for the head circumference of male newborns, the weight, height and head circumference of full-term newborns in four cities in 2012 were all more than the national neonatal growth standard of 1986-1987 (P<0.05). Compared with the data obtained from 1986-1987, the sex ratio and the prevalence of macrosomia and premature were higher, but the rates of post-term delivery and low birth weight were lower (P<0.01). Conclusions The new-borns in four cities of China are in good condition during recent 25 years. More attention should be paid to improve the birth sex ratio and to decrease rates of macrosomia and premature.

Cinobufacino injection is purified from water extraction of the skin of Bufo bufo gargarizans, which has been widely used for various cancers in clinic with significant anti-tumor effects. Bufadienolides were regarded as the main active constituents of cinobufacino injection in previous reports. In present study, 6 bufadienolides were isolated and purified from Cinobufacino injection. Their structures were identified as 3-epi-ψ-bufarenogin (1), ψ-bufarenogin (2), 3-epi-arenobufagin (3), arenobufagin (4), 3-epi-gamabufotalin (5), and 3-oxo-arenobufagin (6), separately. Among them, 1 and 3 were new compounds, 5 and 6 were new natural products. Compounds 1, 2 and compounds 3, 4 were two pairs configuration isomers at C-3, separately.

Objectives To investigate factors affecting neonate birth weight. Methods Random cluster sampling method was adopted to investigate the physical development of 5539 single live newborns in Beijing, Harbin, Changsha, and Guang-zhou. Single factor analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to find the factors influencing neonate birth weight. Re-sults Single factor analysis showed that neonatal sex, gestational age, maternal age, maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain, mother's education and occupation have effects on neonatal birth weight. Risk factors for macrosomia, including male fetus, maternal age≥25 years before pregnancy, maternal pre-pregnancy BMI≥24 kg/m2, gestational weight gain greater than 12.5 kg, and preterm delivery and maternal pre-pregnant BMI<18.5 kg/m2 are the risk factors of low birth weight. Conclu-sions Premature, excessive weight gain during pregnancy, high or low maternal pre-pregnancy BMI are main factors that caused abnormal body mass in neonates.

The course of estahlishing coronary collateral circulation has been studied after ligating the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery (L. A. D.) of the heart in 20 rabbits. Another 5 rabbits were studied as control group. The experimental results were as follows: (1) The rabbit electrocardiograms EGG were made before and after the ligation of the L. A. D. The EGG of control group was made only before killing. In these experiments, the pathological changes of No. 28 were observed immediately after ligating the L. A.D. It was found that the T wave was inverted in standard lead I, and that the volts of the QRS complex in lead Vc fell apparently. This phenomenon may be interpreted as myocardial ischemia in the anterior wall of the heart. After ligating the L. A. D. the S-T segment of No. 27 in AVL lead elevated and exceeded I mm, and the depressive Q wave in Vc lead was greater than the one-fourth of the R wave before killing. All of the phenomenen observed in the rabbit entirely confirmed the myocardial infarction and myocardial ischemia. In No. 25, the T wave was inverted in standard lead I, and the QRS complex in lead Vc was not only shallow in depth but also very little. The conditions accounted probably for myocardial ishcmia. During 4 to 21 days after ligating the L. A. D.,the pathological changes in the EGG occurred frequently.The rabbit ECG gradually became normal from 21 st day on. (2) The coronary arteries of the rabbit hearts were injected with X-ray contrast medium and were examined. The X-ray film thus obtained were compared with the specimen after they were cleared. At the same time, sections of the heart walls (the infarcted area and its surrounding areas) of fifteen rabbits were studied carefully under microscope. Our primary impression was that only a few newly formed vessels in the central part of the infarct till the fourth day after ligating the L. A. D. The vessels surrounding of the infarct show a slight winding and distension. During 10 to 28 days, the number of the newly formed vessels in the infarct increased gradually day by day. The vessels surroundings the infarct were also highly crooked and distended, especially in the anterior wall of the right ventricle. This is possibly the most active period in the establishment of coronary collateral circulation. During 28 to 49 days, the morphology of the vessels in the infarct area became similar to that of the corresponding area of the control group. (3) The significance of the coronary collateral circulation on the heart wall was discussed.

A Study of one hundred hearts (adults 56, children 44) has been made. The S-A mode arteries and A-V node arteries are measured and analysed. The chief results are as fo11ows: (1) 67% of S-A node arteries originated from the right coronary artery; 33% arose from the left coronary artery. A number of the S-A node arteries arising from the right coronary artery were the continuation from the anterior right atrial branch. Occasionally, they may be come from the intermediate right atrial branch or intermediate left atrial branch. (2) The distance between the right S-A node artery origin and the aortic root was about 1.28?0.12 cm in adults, and 0.85?0.09 cm in children, while between the left S-A node artery origin and the bifurcation of the left coronary artery, it was about 0.84?0.19 cm in adults and 0.41?0.03 cm in children. The external diameters of the S-A node arteries were measured. The mean value was as follows: 0.17?0.01 cm (adults); 0.12?0.01 cm (children). (3) The relation between the origins of S-A node artery and A-V node artery may be divided into six types. ①The S-A node artery and A-V node artery which originated from the right coronary artery were about 58.06%. ②The S-A node artery arising from the left coronary artery and the A-V node artery originating from the right coronary artery occurred in 30.11% ③The S-A node artery originated from the right coronary attery, while the A-V node artery arose from the left. This condition was about 6.45%.④The type that the S-A node artery arose from both coronary arteries, and the A-V node artery originated from the right was about 3.22%.⑤Both the S-A node artery and A-V node artery arising from left coronary artery occurred in 1.08%.⑥The A-V node artery originating from the left and right coronary arteries, and the S-A node artery arising from the right coronary artery were about 1.08%.
