Aim To study the inhibitory effect of Oxymatrine-Baicailin compound on the secretion of hepatitis B viral antigens in HepG 2.2.2.15 cells.Methods HepG2.2.2.15 cells were cultured and treated with a series of Oxymatrine,Baicailin,or Oxymatrine-Baicailin compound respectively.The toxicity effect was determined by MTT colorimetry.Con-tents of the hepatitis surface antigen(HBsAg) and hepatitis e antigen(HBeAg) in the culture supernatants were determined by Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.Results Oxymatrine at concentrations between 0.125 and 1 g?L~(-1) had little toxicity effect on cells,but Oxymatrine at 2 g?L~(-1) and 4 g?L~(-1) had much more toxicity effect on cells.The inhibitory effect of Oxymatrine on HBsAg and HBeAg increased in a dose-dependent manner from 0.125 to 1 g?L~(-1).The toxicity of Baicailin on cells increased from 0.625 to 2 g?L~(-1),especially when the dose surpassed 1 g?L~(-1).The inhibitory effect of Baicailin on HBsAg and HBeAg increased in a dose-dependent manner from 0.125 to 1 g?L~(-1),but its efficacy was inferior to Oxymatrine's efficacy.Oxymatrine-Baicailin compound had good inhibitory effect on hepatitis B viral antigens secretion,and the inhibition effect of the compound on HBeAg was superior to the effect on HBsAg.The Group C Oxymatrine-Baicailin compound had good synergism inhibition effect on hepatitis B viral antigens secretion and the inhibition rate of the specific group compound was significantly superior to that of Oxymatrine treatment alone(HBsAg:P=0.043;HBeAg: P=0.026).Conclusion Oxymatrine-Baicailin compound has good synergism effect on hepatitis B viral antigens secretion in HepG2.2.2.15 cells.

ObjectiveTo study the relation of phonation and respiration in normal subjects. MethodsUsing Aerophone Ⅱ Model 6800 and Visipitch 6097, vital capacity was recorded first , then the simultaneous phonation volume, maximum sustain phonation time,mean airflow rate,sound pressure level and average pitch were recorded in order to induce the relation of phonation and respiration in normal subjects. ResultsThere was a linear correlation between phonation volume and vital capacity. Maximum sustain phonation time varied with changes of mean airflow rate and phonation volume and mean airflow rate varied little in different subjects and had no relation with average pitch and sound intensity. ConclusionMaximum phonation time, the mean airflow rate and ratio of phonation volume to vital capacity can be used as indicator in clinical application.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid in perioperative blood loss in old patients with multi-level lumbar spinal stenosis.Methods From January 2009 to September 2010,a total of 68 consecutive patients with multi-level lumbar spinal stenosis ( ≥65 years old) underwent posterior decompression,internal fixation and bone graft fusion who were randomly divided into group A and group B with 34 patients in each.The patients in group A received tranexamic acid and the patients in group B received an equal volume of normal saline.The amounts of intraoperative blood loss,postoperative wound drainage,blood transfusion,the number of the patients needing blood transfusion and hemoglobin,fibrinogen,prothrombin time and so on were examined preoperatively and 24 hours postoperatively.All the patients were observed for the clinical symptoms of deep vein thrombosis.Results The amounts of intraoperative blood loss,postoperative wound drainage,blood transfusion and the number of the patients needing blood transfusion in group A were significantly decreased than those in group B[ (641.1 ± 128.4) ml vs.(780.1 ± 107.3) ml,(228.80 ± 52.07) ml vs.(345.50 ±42.16) ml,(1.02 + 1.56) U vs.(2.89 ± 1.76) U,16 cases vs.28 cases ],there were significant differences between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).As for the value of postoperative hemoglobin concentration in group A [ ( 104.00 ± 4.87) g/L ] was significantly higher than that in group B [ (92.20 + 5.47 ) g/L ] (P ＜ 0.05 ).There were no significant differences in the levels of fibrinogen,prothrombin time,and activated partial thromboplastin time between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).No deep vein thrombosis was found 7 days postoperatively.Conclusion Tranexamic acid can be effectively used in spine surgery in old patients with multi-level lumbar spinal stenosis without increasing the risk of venous thrombosis.

This review is to provide an overview of current situation and advance of abdominal compartment syndrome. Progress has been made in diagnosis and therapy of abdominal compartment syndrome. At present patients who are diagnosed as abdominal compartment syndrome are associated with a high mortality rate. Therefove, it is important to diagnoze and treat the disease early. Surgical treatment of increased intraabdominal pressure leads in most instances to a rapid and profound correction of the physiological abnormalities. Operative treatment is the unique and effective approach of abdominal compartment syndrome.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and toxicities of three dimensional conformal radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy for advanced esophageal carcinoma. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 127 patients with advanced esophageal squamous carcinoma in our department from January 2008 to January 2011,who were divided into two groups:conformal radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy(RCT) group,69 patients and radiotherapy(RT)group,58 patients. The side effects,quality of life and effective rates of them were compared. Results The severe rate of the marrow toxic effect and the incidences of radia-tion-induced esophagitis were higher in the RCT group(29. 0% vs 12. 1% ,χ2 = 5. 387,P = 0. 020;24. 6% vs 10. 3% ,χ2 = 4. 341,P = 0. 037). Patients in the RT group had better quality of life than those in the RCT group in gastrointestinal side effects(nausea,vomiting,diarrhea)and food intake(73. 9% vs 12. 1% ,χ2 =48. 574,P = 0. 000;43. 5% vs 25. 9% ,χ2 = 4. 274,P = 0. 039). In the RCT group,the effective rate was 91. 30%(63 / 69)and 72. 41 %(42 / 58)in the RT group,with a statistical significance(χ2 = 7. 852,P =0. 005). Conclusion Three dimensional conformal radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy for advanced esophageal carcinoma can improve the short-term curative effects,but it also increase the acute toxic effect. Further follow-up studies are needed for its long-term effect.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers in females worldwide. Despite the treatment methods of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are maturing, the prognosis of patients with recurrent, advanced or metastatic cervical cancer remains poor. Molecular targeted therapy provides new hope for these patients. This review focuses on the advances in agents targeting vascular endothelial growth factor pathway, epidermal growth factor receptor, mammalian target of rapamycin, histone deacetylases and cyclooxygenase-2 in cervical cancer.
