Renal cancer is a common malignant tumor in urology, with complicated pathogenesis and no obvious clinical symptoms. Metastatic renal cancer accounts for 20%-30% of the newly diagnosed renal cancer. The 5-year survival rate for metastatic patients is less than 10%.At present, the main non-surgical treatment means of mRCC include cytokines and targeted drug therapy, and immunotherapy has also become a research hotspot of mRCC. The current status and research progress of mRCC therapy were reviewed. The medical treatment methods of metastatic renal cancer, such as receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors and mTOR inhibitors; immunotherapies, such as immunosuppressants for PD-1/PD-L1 were also discussed.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of amiodarone in preventing reperfusion ventricular fibrillation (RVF) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.Methods:This study searched the databases of CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Knowledge and PubMed, and searched the related research of amiodarone to prevent RVF in cardiac surgery patients, the time was until December 2019. Meta analysis was performed using Revman 5.3 software according to established standards.Results:The study included six studies (incorporating 514 patients). According to different intervention methods, 514 patients were divided into three groups, 196 in the amiodarone group, 153 in the lidocaine group, and 165 in the placebo group. The incidence of RVF was significantly lower in the amiodarone group than in the control group ( RR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.47-0.86, P=0.003, I2=49%), but there was no significant difference between the amiodarone group and the lidocaine group( RR: 1.03, 95% CI: 0.48-2.22, P=0.94, I2=74%). Compared with the control group, amiodarone reduced the defibrillation frequency of RVF, but the difference was not statistically significant ( RR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.68-1.20, P=0.48, I2=0). There was no difference in the number of defibrillation of RVF between the lidocaine group and the amiodarone groups ( RR: 1.50, 95% CI: 0.90-2.52, P=0.12, I2=38%). Conclusion:Compared with the control group, amiodarone can significantly reduce the incidence of RVF in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Objective To explore the protective role and mechanisms of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) on advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs)-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. Methods The H9C2 cells were selected in this study and divided into blank control group,RSA control group,and groups treated with indicated concentrations of AOPPs with or without GLP-1,and AOPPs +GLP-1+LY294002 for 24 hours respectively. Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. The ROS level was detected by DCFH-DA fluorescent probe. The cell apoptosis was tested by fluorescent staining and flow cytometry. The expression of p-Akt,p-Bad,Bcl-2,Bax,and active-caspase-3 proteins were evaluated by Western blot. Results GLP-1 attenuated AOPPs-induced cytotoxicity[(0.929±0.083) vs (1.409±0.099),P<0.01],decreased AOPPs-induced ROS[(47.817±0.878)% vs (25.413±2.597)%,P<0.01] and apoptosis[(15.773±3.130)% vs (9.715±0.757)%,P<0.01]. GLP-1 improved AOPPs-induced phosphorylation of Akt and Bad,increased the expression of Bcl-2,and decreased the expression of Bax and the activation of caspase-3. Conclusion GLP-1 protects cardiomyocytes against AOPP-induced apoptosis,predominantly via the PI3K/Akt/Bad pathway.

Objective To analyze the mechanism of nasal deformity by reviewing the possible pathogenesis and nasal anatomy and to find the effective and reliable operative methods to correct nasal deformities in unilateral cleft lip.Methods 57 patients (37 males,20 females,and range in age from 12 to 25 years,with mean of 18.6 years) with nasal deformities in unilateral cleft lip were available for this study.The nasal deformities were treated with the following surgical procedures according to the different locations and degree Of nasal deformities.The eompositive techniques included:alveolar bone grafting was taken to correct the collapse the nasaI base;a cortical plate was inserted between the two medial crura of the alar cartilage.According to the nasal contours of non-cleft side,the alar cartilage was resected and suspended to its normal and symmetrical position.The alar cartilaginous ring was reconstruction,which maintained the nostril shape 3 month postoperatively.Results A total of 57 cases were treated by the method above,and were ranged with score by operators and patients.93% of cases were evaluated as satisfaction after operation.The follow-up for 3 to 24 months showed that 52 cases had achieved satisfactory effects,5 cases showed the trend to relapse.Conclusion The cause of nasal deformities in unilateral cleft lip is complex.The study has achieved a significant improvement by synthetical correction of deformities of maxilla,cartilage and soft tissues, and the restoration of nasal-labial muscles.The rigid suspending is more important to maintain the nostril contour and avoid relapse.

BACKGROUND:Previous research has demonstrated human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(HMSCs)differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells;however,biological characteristics and differentiation mechanism remain unclear,and differentiation system remains immature.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility of hepatocyte growth factor(HGF)and epidermal growth factor(EGF)to induce the differentiation of HMSCs into hepatocyte-like cells.METHODS:HMSC5 were obtained from patients with esophageal cancer and were separated by density gradient centrifugation combined with attachment method.The phenotypes of MSCs were identified by flow cytometry.The third-passage HMSCs were divided into four groups:HGF(adding 20 μg/L HGF),EGF(adding 20 μg/L EGF),HGF+EGF,and blank control groups.Morphology was observed using inverted microscope.At days 7 and 14 after induction,α-fetoprotein and albumin mRNA expressions were detected using RT-PCR assay.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The HMSCs did not express hematopoietic cell CD34 and CD35,but strongly expressed β1-integrin CD29 and matrix receptor CD44.HMSCs changed from long fusiform shape to polygon or similar round shape in the HGF,EGF,and HGF+EGF groups.At days 7 and 14 after induction,α-fetoprotein and albumin mRNA expressions were positive.However,polygon cells were not observed in the blank control group,and α-fetoprotein and albumin mRNA expressions were negative.This suggested that HGF,EGF,and HGF+EGF could induce the differentiation of HMSCs into hepatocyte-like cells;however,their differentiation ability still needs to be further semi-quantitatively analyzed using immunohistochemical staining.

Objective　To explore the effect of photon on blood biologic components in blood photochemical treatment. Methods　After the blood sample was adjusted to an appropriate density, it was treated with 0.1 nmol/ml 8-MOP (8-methoxypsoralen), 0.1 nmol/ml TFO (triple helix-forming oligonuletide) and UVA (ultraviolet A radiation) at the intensity of 1 800 μW/cm2 for 3～20 min. The changes of biologic activities of major components in blood were measured with automatic blood gas analyzer, platelet aggregation analyzer, blood coagulation analyzer, micropipette aspiration system and assay of poly-lysine adsorption. Results　The oxygen content in blood was increased gradually. The resilience of erythrocyte was enhanced ，but its adhesiveness was decreased. The parameters related to blood coagulation had some changes but all remained within the normal ranges. Conclusion　Under the definite condition of blood virus being inactivated effectively, the nonspecific effect of photosensitive response may improve blood oxygen content, enhance the transfiguring ability of erythrocyte and decrease the blood viscosity, but having no obvious change on blood coagulation.
