International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2021;43(3):209-213
After chemotherapy, the healthy qi of acute leukemia (AL) patients was severly demaged, remnant toxin with internal amassment, qi and blood deficiency, blood stasis, vertigo with syndrome of stagnation and blockade of phlegm-damp. The clinical symptoms with cold-heat intermingled together which are complicated and changable were quite similar to those of Jueyin disease. Therefore, this paper tried to explore the differentiation and treatment of AL after chemotherapy from Jueyin. It was concluded that the treatment of AL after chemotherapy should be treated with cold and heat method, attacking and supplementing together, with nourishing the liver as the main part. At the same time, it was importance to protect healthy qi. Combined with the basic pathogenesis of AL, it was proposed that Danggui-Sini Decoction was suitable for the treatment of AL after chemotherapy. All in all, the paper explored the differentiation and treatment of AL after chemotherapy from Jueyin in order to use more Chinese medicine therapy in the field of AL treatment.

Objective To investigate whether paclitaxel can efficiently induce the apoptosis of ovarian cell HO-8910,and to study the relationship between the apoptosis of cells and the cell cycle.Methods With the treatment of paclitaxel with different concentrations and different time,the morphologic change of HO-8910 ovarian cells was observed using fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy(TEM),and the apoptosis of cells and the changes of cell cycle were determined by flow cytometry(FCM). Results The typical changes of HO-8910 cell apoptosis were observed by TEM and Fluorescence microscopy.With the treatment of paclitaxel,the HO-8910 ovarian cells were firstly arrested in G_2/M phase,and the typical ultrastructural changes of apoptosis were appeared only after the cells were apparently arrested in G_2/M phase.Conclusion Paclitaxel can induce the apoptosis of HO-8910 cells and the apoptosis is associated with the blockage of G_2/M phase in cell cycle.

Five groups were assigned to include intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma ( ICC, n=30 ) , liver cirrhosis (LC,n=30),metastatic carcinoma (MCA,n=30) and 30 healthy subjects.The serum level of GPC3 was measured by a sandwich method of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) by microparticle enzyme immunoassay (MEIA).The serum levels of GPC3 and AFP were significantly higher than those of other groups (P<0.05).At a cut-off value of 3.5μg/L,the sensitivity and specificity of GPC3 in the diagnosis of HCC was 83.3%and 76.7%respectively.The sensitivity of combined measurement of GPC3 and AFP was better than GPC3 or AFP alone.Detectable GPC3 was significantly correlated with the presence of viral hepatitis markers and tumor size.However there was no obvious difference in tumor thrombi in portal vein ( PVTT), tumor number, age, gender or hepatic function of HCC.Thus,as a sensitive serum diagnostic marker for HCC ,GPC3 may be a good supplement to AFP in differentiating HCC from non-malignant chronic liver diseases and other liver cancers.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, risk stratification, thrombolytic effects and prognosis of 110 patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) treated with thrombolysis.Methods:The clinical data of 110 patients with PE admitted to Beijing University People's Hospital from May 2009 to March 2019 were retrospective analyzed. The clinical data including general information, symptoms and signs, blood pressure, artery blood gas, coaglulation, and radiography were collected. Inclusion criteria: high-risk and intermediate high-risk group. Exclusion criteria: intermediate low-risk and low-risk group. According to the prognosis and risk stratification, the patients were divided into survival group and non-survival group, high-risk group and intermediate high-risk group. The indicators above were compared between with χ 2 test, t test or nonparametric test where appropriate. Results:Of the 110 patients with PE, 49 patients were male and 61 female with an average age of 65±16 years old; and 12 patients were in the high-risk group and 98 in the intermediate high-risk group. The respiratory rate of the high-risk group was higher, and blood pressure, PO 2, SaO 2 before thrombolysis were more lower than the intermediate high-risk group ( P<0.05). One hundred and nine patients were treated with systemic recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA), 70 patients with 50 mg, and 39 patients with 100 mg. One patient, who was contraindicated to systemic thrombolysis (with active vagina bleeding), was treated with interventional local thrombolysis; another 5 patients treated with interventional local thrombolysis because the clinical symptom were not improved markedly. One hundred and two patients survived and 8 patients died, among which, 3 patients were in the high-risk group and 5 in the intermediate high-risk group. The age, heart rate, respiration rate of the non-survival group were higher than those in the survival group, and the PO 2 before thrombolysis, PCO 2 after thrombolysis were lower ( P<0.05). Bleeding complication were occurred in 22 patients: 18 patients with minor bleeding, such as bleeding gums, skin ecchymosis, and 4 patients with moderate-severe bleeding, such as cerebral hemorrhage, abdominal bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding, and vagina bleeding. Thirteen of 70 patients in the 50 mg group and 9 of 39 patients in the 100 mg group occurred bleeding complication. The bleeding complication of the low dose group was lower than that of the standard dose group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Thrombolysis is first-line therapy to high-risk PE. Thrombolysis is safe and effective in the intermediate high-risk group with a lower incidence rate of bleeding complication.

BACKGROUND:Chlorfenapyr is used to kill insects that are resistant to organophosphorus insecticides.Chlorfenapyr poisoning has a high mortality rate and is difficult to treat.This article aims to review the mechanisms,clinical presentations,and treatment strategies for chlorfenapyr poisoning. DATA RESOURCES:We conducted a review of the literature using PubMed,Web of Science,and SpringerLink from their beginnings to the end of October 2023.The inclusion criteria were systematic reviews,clinical guidelines,retrospective studies,and case reports on chlorfenapyr poisoning that focused on its mechanisms,clinical presentations,and treatment strategies.The references in the included studies were also examined to identify additional sources. RESULTS:We included 57 studies in this review.Chlorfenapyr can be degraded into tralopyril,which is more toxic and reduces energy production by inhibiting the conversion of adenosine diphosphate to adenosine triphosphate.High fever and altered mental status are characteristic clinical presentations of chlorfenapyr poisoning.Once it occurs,respiratory failure occurs immediately,ultimately leading to cardiac arrest and death.Chlorfenapyr poisoning is difficult to treat,and there is no specific antidote. CONCLUSION:Chlorfenapyr is a new pyrrole pesticide.Although it has been identified as a moderately toxic pesticide by the World Health Organization(WHO),the mortality rate of poisoned patients is extremely high.There is no specific antidote for chlorfenapyr poisoning.Therefore,based on the literature review,future efforts to explore rapid and effective detoxification methods,reconstitute intracellular oxidative phosphorylation couplings,identify early biomarkers of chlorfenapyr poisoning,and block the conversion of chlorfenapyr to tralopyril may be helpful for emergency physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
