Objective To explore the antagonistic effect of Ziyin Xiehuo Recipe(ZYXHR,Recipe for nourishing kidney yin and purging ministerial fire) on estrogen-like activity of environmental endocrine disruptors,nonylphenol(NP) and mixture of NP and bisphenol A(BPA). Methods Totally 30 three-week-old female SD rats were randomly divided into control group(fed with corn oil),exposed group A (feeding NP100 mg / kg ),exposed group B (feeding NP 50 mg/kg+ BPA 200 mg/kg ),treatment group A (NP 100 mg/kg + ZYXHR),treatment group B (NP 50 mg/kg+ BPA 200 mg/kg + ZYXHR). After 15 days of treatment,the uterine weight gain and PCNA protein expression were detected. Results As compared with those of the control group,Uterine wet weight,uterus organ coefficient,thickness of endometrium and smooth muscle,and the height of endometrial glands and glandular epithelium significantly increased in exposed group A and B (P

This study successfully established in v itro model of Alzheimerˊs disease ( AD ) in order to investigate effects and mechanisms on AD by Bushen-Huatan-Yizhi Recipe (BSHTYZR, replenishing kidney-essence and removing phlegm to benefit wisdom ) . The PC-12 cells affected by Aβ1-42 incubated were produced for neuron cell model of AD . Then , they were intervened by the serum containing BSHTYZR , which were compared to the serum containing indomethacin . The cell morphology was observed . The neuronal survival was assessed by counting MTT assay . The expression of APP mRNA was detected with RT-PCR . And the protective effect of BSHTYZR on neuronal cells and neurotoxic effects of anti-Aβ was observed . The results showed that 2 . 5 mmol/L Aβ1-42 can significantly decrease the cell viability . The RT-PCR was used on semi-quantitative analysis for expression of APPmRNA. It showed that expression of APP mRNA was increased in each group, and the BSHTYZR group can reduce the expression significantly ( P < 0 . 01 ) . It was concluded that the BSHTYZR method can protect nerve cells , suppress the expression of APP mRNA , and reduce the toxic effects .

Objective: To evaluate the effects of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on the plasma concentration of voriconazole in patients with hematological disease and the value of serial monitoring plasma concentrations in the treatment and prevention of invasive fungal disease (IFD). Methods: From January 2016 to December 2016, 65 hematological patients who received voriconazole intravenous administration for the treatment of invasive fungal disease were enrolled in this study. The population CYP2C19 polymorphism of voriconazole were performed using PCR-Pyrosequencing. The trough plasma concentrations of vriconazole (C_trough) was detected by ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Results: Based on the genotype analysis, 65 subjects were identified as extensive metabolizers’ group (30 cases) and poor metabolizers’ group (35 cases). The C_trough of the 65 patients were detected for 169 times totally, and there was a significant difference of C_trough values between the two groups [0.98(0.38-2.08) mg/L vs 2.19(1.53-4.27) mg/L, z=10.286, P<0.001]. The medium of C_trough in 65 hematological patients were described. Lack of response to therapy was more frequent in patients with voriconazole levels <1.5 mg/L (50.0%) than in those with voriconazole levels >1.5 mg/L (20.5%) (P=0.052). And the risk of adverse events was more frequent in patients with voriconazole levels >5.5 mg/L (80.0%) than in those with voriconazole levels ≤5.5 mg/L (8.3%) (χ²=11.689, P=0.020). Conclusion Patients with CYP2C19 wild-type phenotype are extensive metabolizers, their C_trough of voriconazole are significantly lower than patients with CYP2C19 non-wild-type phenotype (poor metabolizers). Appropriate concentrations of vriconazole can improve the efficacy and safety during treatment.

Objective To explore the influencing factors and correlation of positive surgical margin (PSM) and biochemical recurrence (BCR) in men after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RALP).Methods The clinical data of 190 patients with local or locally advanced prostate cancer who underwent RALP by single surgeon in the Department of Urology of Changhai Hospital from January 2016 to September 2017 were collected.Age was (67.5 ±6.9) years old;median body mass index (BMI),preoperative PSA,prostate weight were 24.2 kg/m2 (16.6-34.2 kg/m2),15.0 ng/ml (1.41-393.94 ng/ml) and 36.9 g (8.65-207.58 g) respectively.The group of surgical margin was divided into negative surgical margin,apex-only PSM,base-only PSM as well as apex and base PSM.Characteristics between patients stratified by surgical margin or BCR were compared using x2 test.The influencing factors of PSM were analyzed by logistic regression.Cox regression was used for the analysis of predictive factors of BCR.Log-rank test and Kaplan-Meier curves were used for comparing the BCR rate between the groups of surgical margin.Results Of all the 190 enrolled patients,total PSM rate was 24.7％ (47/190),apex-only PSM rate was 13.2 ％ (25/190),base-only PSM rate was 5.8％ (11/190),apex and base PSM rate was 5.8 ％ (11/190).Multivariate analysis showed the independent predictive factors influencing PSM were preoperative PSA (P =0.048) and pathological stage (P =0.004).The median follow-up period was 7.3 months (0.9-26.6months) and BCR happened in 19.5％ (37/190) patients.The rates of BCR were 15.4％ (22/143),16.0％ (4/25),27.3％ (3/11) and 72.7％ (8/11) in the patients with negative surgical margin,apexonly PSM,base-only PSM and both apex and base PSM respectively.Log-rank test revealed that the rate of BCR in patients with apex and base PSM was higher than that in patients with negative surgical margin (P ＜0.001) or patients with apex-only PSM(P =0.002).Cox analysis indicated that higher preoperative PSA (P =0.040),higher pathological stage (P =0.041) and higher pathological Gleason score (P =0.004) were the independent predictors of BCR.PSM was not a predictive factor of BCR (P =0.257).Conclusions Preoperative PSA and pathological stage are the influencing factors of PSM.Higher preoperative PSA,higher pathological stage and higher pathological Gleason Score are the predictive factors of BCR.PSM may not be a predictive factor of BCR.The relationship between PSM and BCR needs further study.
