Objective To investigate the relationship of pancreatic exocrine function with the pancreatic cancer staging and the size of tumor. Methods N-benzoyl-tryrosyl para-aminobenzoic acid (NBT- PABA) test was used to measure the pancreatic exocrine function of 39 pancreatic cancer patients, 46 chronic pancreatitis patients and 20 normal subjects. In pancreatic cancer group, the relationship of pancreatic exocrine function with the size of tumor (TS) and JPS classification (T factor) was analysed. Results The rate of NBT-PABA excretion in normal subjects, chronic pancreatitis patients were (78.9±15.9)%, (58.6± 19.3)%, respectively; in mild, moderate, severe chronic pancreatitis patients, the values of NBT-PABA were (75.5±23.6)%, (57.9±21.5)%, (45.5±16.7)% ; respectively. The rate of NBT-PABA excretion in pancreatic cancer patients was (47.6±18.3)%, and the rate of NBT-PABA excretion in patients with T3+T4 stage was (42.2±21.70%, and was obviously less than (64.8±11.2)% of T1+T2 stage (P<0.05). Tthe rate of NBT-PABA excretion in patients with TS3+TS4 was (34.8±17.2)%, and was significantly lower than (55.6±23.5)% of TS1+TS2(P<0.05). The rate of NBT-PABA excretion in patients with pancreatic head cancer was (42.5±16.4)%, which was significantly lower than (71.8±9.6)% of the pancreatic body and tail (P<0.05). In the 33 patients with pancreatic head cancer, the rate of NBT-PABA excretion in patients with main pancreatic duct stricture was (54.2±14.1) %, which was significantly higher than (37.6± 14.1)% of patients with main pancreatic duct interruption (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in pancreatic exocrine function between pancreatic cancer and moderate or severe chronic pancreatitis.Conclusions The pancreatic exocrine function was related to the pancreatic cancer staging and the size of tumor to some degree,but it was affected by mass location,and it was also affected by degrees of the pancreatic duct obstruction. The pancreatic exocrine function can not be used to differentiate pancreatic cancer from moderate or severe chronic pancreatitis.

CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) have potent immunostimulatory effects and can enhance the anti-cancer activity of cancer treatments. CpG ODN directly induced the activation and maturation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells, stimulated the secretion of Th1-type cytokines, and enhanced the differentiation of B cells into antibody-secreting plasma cells. CpG oligodeoxynucleotides as vaccine adjuvants can enhance both the humoral and cellular responses to antigens in some clinical trails. CpG ODN was applied in several clinical trials as an adjuvant of tumor vaccine. CpG ODN alone had anti-tumor activity and had synergistic effects with other anti-tumor therapies including monoclonal antibodies, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, cytokines, etc. Compared with standard regimen, in the phase Ⅲ clinical trial CpG ODN did not prolong the median survival time and induced severe adverse reaction in the treatment of ⅢB-Ⅳ stage non-small cell lung cancer. But CpG ODN had definite anti-cancer activity in other clinical trials. The safety and efficacy of CpG ODN in anti-tumor therapy needs to be further verified in clinic.

Objective: To observe the clinical effect of foot bath with Tao Hong Si Wu Tang plus massage on acupoints at the sole for grade 0 diabetic foot. <br> Methods: One hundred and sixty eligible cases were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 80 cases in each group. The two groups were treated with routine basic medications to control blood sugar. The patients in the observation group were given foot bath withTao Hong Si Wu Tangplus massage on acupoints at the sole, once every day. At the same time, the patients were instructed to understand the knowledge of diabetes, accept the education on foot care and to know the self-management for diabetes. The patients in the control group only accepted the education on foot care and studied the self-management for diabetes. The patients in the two groups were followed up once every week by phone. The local examination was intensified for the patients in their clinical visit every month. The therapeutic effects were assessed after three months of continuous treatment. <br> Results: The total effective rate was 92.5% in the observation group, remarkably higher than 65.0% in the control group. The difference in comparison of the general therapeutic effect was statistically significant (P<0.01). <br> Conclusion: Foot bath withTao Hong Si Wu Tang plus massage on acupoints at the sole was beneficial to the improvement of clinical symptoms of grade 0 diabetic foot.

From June 2008 to December 2012,video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS group) was performed for 24 cases of thymoma.Their operative procedures,postoperative complications,remission of myasthenia gravis (MG),perioperative mortality and oncological outcomes were compared with 19 cases of trans-sternal open thymectomy (OT group).Compared with OT group,VATS group had significantly shorter operation duration,less blood loss,shorter postoperative hospital stay,shorter chest tube duration and less chest drainage amount (P < 0.05).The total rate of postoperative complications of VATS group was 4% (1/24) and it was less than OT group (4/19) without significant difference (P >0.05).The effective remission rate of thymomatous MG was 7/9 in VATS group and it was similar to that in OT group (6/8,P > 0.05).VATS group had a recurrent or metastatic rate of 0% (0/23) and it was better than OT group with 1/17.And there was no significant inter-group difference (P > 0.05).The total survival rate of VATS group was 100% and it was similar to that of OT group (16/17,P > 0.05).Thoracoscopic thymectomy is safe,feasible,efficacious and mini-invasive for thymoma.With fewer complications and a quicker recovery,it has similar short-term outcomes to conventional open thymectomy.

Objective To explore the effect of CYP2D6 gene polymorphism on blood concentration,therapeutic efficacy and adverse effects of anti-depression drug venlafaxine.Methods 69 cases of patients with depression were selected randomly from southern region of FuJian,China.The blood concentration of venlafaxine was detected by HPLC,and the CYP2D6 genotype was determined by sequencing with the amplified PCR products from peripheral blood DNA.The therapeutic efficacy and adverse effects of venlafaxine were evaluated by Hamilton depression scale(HAMD) and treatment emergent symptom scale(TESS) respectively.Results Subjects was divided into CC,CT,TT three groups based on rs16947 locus genotyping.The blood concentrations of venlafaxine were (157.35±15.63) ng/ml,(70.17±5.11) ng/ml,(115.72± 10.2) ng/ml respectively and there was no significant difference (F=1.257,P=0.301).The dose-corrected concentrations and normalized concentrations were not significantly different (F=1.683,1.547,P> 0.05).Similarly,the reduction rate of HAMD (CC:(40.6 ± 7.23) %,CT:(51.7±7.09)%,TT:(42.8±14.1)%) and TESS scores (CC:1.3±0.21,CT:1.3±0.36,TT:1.2±0.28) were not significantly different either (P>0.05).In 69 samples in this study,genotyping of rs3892097 locus only found GG type,and no further examination was performed.Genotyping divided rs1065852 locus into CC,CT,TT three groups.The blood concentrations of venlafaxine were (42.87±9.9) ng/ml,(64.25 ± 13.59) ng/ml,(181.56± 14.15) ng/ml respectively,and there was significant difference among the three groups (F=4.893,P=0.016).The dose-corrected concentrations and normalized concentrations were also significantly different (F=3.985,3.648,P<0.05).The reduction rate of HAMD (CC:(42.6±8.23) %,CT:(48.8± 10.8) %,TT:(63.4±9.15) %) was not significantly different (F=2.961,P=0.07).The difference of TESS scores was similar to that of HAMD reduction rate.Conclusion Among the 3 loci studied,only rs1065852 locus within CYP2D6 gene can affect its enzyme activity and then influence the therapeutic efficacy and adverse effects of venlafaxine.
