Herald of Medicine 2016;35(6):592-596
Objective To study the effect and mechanism of Plantago depressa Willd. extract on rats with chronic nonbacterial prostatitis. Methods Sixty rats were divided into six groups randomly: normal control group, model control group, cernilton group, high-, medium- and low- dose Plantago depressa Willd. extract group, ten rats in each group. Chronic nonbacterial prostatitis rat model was established in the animals except of normal control group. Rats in the cernilton group were administrated with cernilton solution( 100 mg . kg-1 ) . High, middle and low dose Plantago depressa Willd. extract groups were given 150, 300 and 600 mg . kg-1 of Plantago depressa Willd. extract, respectively. The rats in the normal control and model control group were treated with the same volume of purified water.The administration was performed once every day, and lasted for three weeks.Effects of Plantago depressa Willd.extract on prostate index (PI), prostate specific antigen (PSA), tumor necrosis factorα ( TNF-α) , interleukin-1β ( IL-1β) , cycloxygenase 2 ( COX-2) , prostaglandin E2( PEG2 ) , transforming growth factor-β1( TGF-β1 ) , and connective tissue growth factor ( CTGF ) levels and pathological changes of prostate tissue in rats were observed. Results PI and PSA levels of the normal control group were(0.8±0.3)mg.g-1 and(106.5±10.6)pg.mL-1, respectively;those of the model control group were(2.2±0.2)mg.g-1 and(319.4±23.4)pg.mL-1 respectively;Those of the cernilton group were(1.6±0.3)mg.g-1 and(179.5±13.7)pg.mL-1 respectively;Those of the low-, medium- and high- dose Plantago depressa Willd.extract groups were(1.8±0.4),(1.3±0.3),(0.8±0.3)mg.g-1 and(263.4±28.6),(178.5±21.5), (143.5±12.9)pg.mL-1, respectively.Compared with the model control group, PI and PSA were significantly decreased(P<0.01) , TNF-α, IL-1β, COX-2, PEG2 , TGF-β1 and CTGF levels in the prostate tissues were decreased ( P<0. 01 ) , and inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrosis of prostate tissue was significantly alleviated in the model control group. Conclusion This study confirms Plantago depressa Willd.extract exerts effective therapeutical effect on chronic nonbacterial prostatitis in rats.
2.Progress in the diagnosis and treatment of non-responding community acquired pneumonia
Tianjin Medical Journal 2016;44(1):5-8
Non-responding pneumonia describes the situation, in which an inadequate clinical response is present de-spite antibiotic treatment. The incidence of treatment failure in community acquired pneumonia (CAP) can range up to 31%. At present, the diagnosis and treatment of this kind of disease remain a great challenge to CAP. For this reason, several stud-ies have attempted to establish risk factors and new strategies for the treatment of non-responding pneumonia. This article re-views the progress of the pathogeny and treatment of non-responding CAP.

Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2015;(12):843-845
Objective To evaluate the effect of comprehensive intervention measures on reducing the bacterial colonization of the intensive care unit (ICU)bedside notebook computer keyboards and mice.Methods According to bacterial contamination of ICU bedside notebook computer keyboards and mice,comprehensive intervention meas-ures were taken (including wiping computer keyboards and mice with alcohol twice a day,intensifying hand hy-giene,and monitoring hand-washing compliance),specimens of keyboards and mice were taken,bacterial detection results were analyzed.Results Before intervention,bacterial counts of keyboards and mice of 8 specimens were all>5 CFU/cm2 ,detection rate of Bacillus subtilis was 64.71 %,Micrococcus ,coagulase negative staphylococcus, Acinetobacter baumannii ,and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 17.65%-58.82%,Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus were both 5.88%.After comprehensive intervention measures were taken,bacterial counts of only two specimens of keyboards and mice were >5 CFU/cm2 ,the qualified rate of monitoring result after intervention was significantly higher than before intervention (88.24% vs 52.94%;χ2 =5.10,P <0.05).Conclusion Compre-hensive intervention measures can significantly reduce bacterial count on ICU bedside notebook computer keyboards and mice,and decrease the occurrence of healthcare-associated infection.
4.Cementation of polyethylene liner into a retained stable cup in the acetabular revision
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2016;20(13):1866-1872
BACKGROUND:Although cementation of polyethylene liner into a wel-fixed metal shel during the revision surgery has several advantages compared to total acetabular revision, there are some disputes about its clinical outcomes, especialy regarding the re-revision rate and the prosthetic survivorship. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical outcomes and safety of cementation of polyethylene liner into a wel-fixed acetabular cup in the revision after total hip arthroplasty with retained stable cup. METHODS:Between March 2012 and November 2014, nine patients underwent revision after total hip arthroplasty with cementation of polyethylene liner into a wel-fixed acetabular cup. There were 1 male and 8 females, aged 43.7 years on average. The time was 9.4 years on average from the primary total hip arthroplasty to revision. Harris Hip Score and prosthesis X-ray films were compared after revision. The effects and safety of cementation of polyethylene liner into a wel-fixed acetabular cup were further evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Nine patients were folowed up for 8-37 months. The Harris hip scores before revision was (49.54±18.28) points previously, and (84.82±10.59) points during final folow-up (t=6.377, P < 0.05). One patient had re-revision surgery because of recurrent dislocation. There were not complications in other patients, resulting in failure rate of 11%. These results indicated that polyethylene liner cementation technique is safe and effective when the wel-positioned and wel-fixed acetabular cup retained.

Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2016;(3):296-300
Brain metastases (BM) are one of the main cause of death in patients with non small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ).The prognosis is still poor, despite standard therapy based on surgery and radiotherapy.In recent years,with the deepening understanding of molecular mechanisms in lung cancer, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation might be considered as an effective therapeutic target for NSCLC with BM.Therefore,we review the current knowledge about the correlation between EGFR mutation with prevalence and prognosis in BM.

10.Clinical research of acupuncture treatment in the prevention of delayed nausea and vomiting induced by NVB and CDDP for the treatment of NSCLC
China Oncology 2006;0(09):-
Background and purpose:Nausea and vomiting were the most common side effects of chemotherapy and they are difficult to control especially in terms of delayed nausea and vomiting induced by CDDP. Acupuncture treatment is popularly the traditional medical method used in China,being economic and easy to carry out.This research is to study the role of acupuncture treatment in the prevention of NP regimen induced delayed nausea and vomiting. Methods:26 patients with NSCLC were enrolled into a randomized double blind crossover trial. The patients received either hydrochloride ondostrone+Dexm+acupuncture treatment(the first cycle of chemotherapy) →hydrochloride ondostrone+Dexm (the second cycle of chemotherapy)(defined as AB group) or hydrochloride ondostrone+Dexm (the first cycle of chemotherapy)→hydrochloride ondostrone+Dexm+acupuncture treatment (the second cycle of chemotherapy)( defined as BA group).Results:Twenty six patients were evaluated. The complete controls of nausea for the AB group with acupuncture treatment were 96.15%, 96.15%, 76.92%, 84.62%, 92.31% and 100.00% for day 1-6, respectively, for the BA group without acupuncture treatment were 100.00%, 76.92%, 57.69%, 34.62%, 65.38% and 76.92%, respectively. There were statistically difference in terms of the control of nausea for day 3-5(P
