Objective To evaluate the toxic effects and efficacy of the intra-arterial chrono-chemotherapy on patients with liver metastasis arised from colorectal cancer. Methods Chemotherapy of 42 patients were randomly divided into group A (n = 20) with continuously constant arterial infusion, and group B (n = 22) with arterial chrono-modulated infusion. And the toxic effects and efficacy of two groups were compared. Results A significant difference was found in the toxic effects of digestive system between the two groups. The treatment response was similar in the two groups. Conclusions Intra-arterial chrono-chemotherapy may decrease the toxic effects and improve the life quality of these patients.

Objective To investigate the role of AcrAB-TolC efflux pump in fluoroquinolones resistance by Shigella. spp and to explore the significance of AcrAB-TolC efflux pump on mutation of acrR, soxS and marOR as well as on drug re?sistence. Methods Drug resistant bacteria were selected by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion test. After addition of efflux pump inhibitor carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), change of minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC)s of nilidixic acid, Levofloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and Norfloxacin were examined. The DNA binding region of acrA, acrB, soxS, acrR and marOR gene in these mutants were amplified by PCR and sequenced. Results Among the 159 clinical isolates of Shigella,11 strains are resistant to fluoroquinolone. After the addition of CCCP, MICs of 2 fluoroquinolone resistant strains decreased; the MICs of 7 fluoroquinolone resistant strains did not change; MICs of 2 fluoroquinolone resistant strains in?creased. The corresponding nucleotides C, A, T, T on the 36th to 39th of marOR gene were missing, showing by sequencing, in fluoroquinolone resistent strains which might be regulated by the efflux pump gene AcrAB-TolC. Conclusion Efflux pump inhibitor could restrain the activity of efflux partially. The mutations of marOR might play an important role in fluoroquino?lone resistent by shigella.

Objective The aim of this study was to generate human cholesteryl ester transfer protein ( CETP) transgenic rabbits and analyze their biological properties.Methods We generated human CETP transgenic rabbits by DNA microinjection, and detected the expression of human CETP by real-time PCR and Western blot assay.The activity of CETP was measured using an activity assay kit.Results Human CETP transgenic rabbits were successfully generated by DNA microinjection.Compared with wide type rabbits, the expression of human CETP was dramatically increased in the liver of the human CETP transgenic rabbits.The plasma CETP activity was also much higher in the liver of human CETP transgenic rabbits than that of control rabbits.Conclusions The model of human CETP transgenic rabbits is successfully established by DNA microinjection.It will provide a useful tool for the studies of CETP biological function and its involvement in the mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To investigate the effects of hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO)exposure on Caspase-3 and Bcl-2 mRNA ex-pressions in both internal carotid artery (ICA)and basal artery (BA)in rabbits.Methods Twenty-four healthy adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups:HBO group and the control group,with each group consisted of 12 animals.The rab-bits in the HBO group were exposed to HBO at 2.2 ATA for 60 minutes each day for 3 successive days.The rabbits in the control group were normally fed without any treatment.Real-time PCR was used to detect Caspase-3 and Bcl-2 mRNA expressions in both ICA and BA in 2 groups.Results HBO significantly decreased the Caspase-3 mRNA expression [(0.038 ±0.006 )vs .(1.000 ± 0.225)]and increased the Bcl-2 mRNA expression [(1.877 ±0.1 69)vs .(1.000 ±0.364)].In ICA,HBO similarly decreased the Caspase-3 mRNA expression [(0.41 9±0.091)vs .(1.000 ±0.1 75)]and increased the Bcl-2 mRNA expression [(1.269 ±0.270) vs .(1.000±0.1 1 7)]in BA.All the differences mentioned above were of statistical significance (P <0.01).Conclusion HBO ex-erts an inhibition effect on apoptosis in cerebral vascular endothelial cells.The mechanism may be related to inhibiting the expres-sion of Caspase-3 mRNA and promoting the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA.

Objective: To explore the blood-saving effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) back-transfusion in patients with Stanford type A aortic dissection surgery. Methods: A total of 59 consecutive patients who received Stanford type A aortic dissection surgery in our hospital from 2013-01 to 2015-10 were studied. The patients were at the age of (50±6) years with mean body weighting at (80±12) kg and were randomly divided into 2 groups: Traditional (T) group,n=31 and Autologous PRP back-transfusion (P) group,n=28. Blood levels of Hb, platelet counts, PT, APTT were measured at pre-induction of anesthesia (T1), before CPB (T2), prior ifnishing of CPB (T3) and at 1 h (T4), 24 h (T5), 48 h (T6) after the operation. The in-operative, 48 h post-operative volumes of allogeneic blood transfusion and the volume of chest tube drainage at 48h after operation were recorded; the complication occurrence at peri-operative period was recorded. Results: In P group, whole blood processing volume was (1269±197) ml, PRP volume was (753±78) ml, PRP separation time was (35±9) min and the separated platelets were about (22±3)% of total platelet counts. Compared with T group, P group had decreased Hb at T2 (131.0±15.0) g/L vs (101.0±10.0) g/L, decreased platelet counts at T3 (115.0±51.0)×109 /L vs (83.0±23.0)×109/L, while increased platelet counts at T4 (103.0±25.0)×109/L vs (151.0±27.0)×109/L, T5 (105.0±25.0)×109 /L vs (147.0±39.0)×109/L and T6 (101.0±26.0) ×109/L vs (149.0±35.0)×109/L, allP<0.05; P group presented reduced PT at T4 (17.6±2.1) s vs (14.1±1.1) s and T5 (17.6±2.7) s vs (13.5±0.8) s, allP<0.05. The in-operative transfusions of platelet, plasma, cold precipitation and post-operative transfusions of red blood cells, platelets, plasma, cold precipitation and the volume of chest tube drainage at 48h after operation were less in P group,P<0.05. Compared with T group, P group had the lower rates of acute post-operative lung injury (32.1% vs 19.4%), shorter mechanical ventilation time (69.1±5.9) h vs (43.1±1.5) h and ICU staying time (8.1±2.8) d vs (5.3±1.1) d, allP<0.05. Conclusion: Autologous PRP back-transfusion could reduce the post-operative bleeding and allogeneic blood transfusion for Stanford A aortic dissection surgery, it has obvious blood-saving effect.

Objective:To summarize the clinical experience of changing the membranous pulmonary system during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) in infants after congenital heart disease opration with cardiopulmonary bypass.Methods:From January to September in 2019, 6 cases of congenital heart disease with cardio-pulmonary bypass in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively, whose membrane obstruction occurred during ECMO treatment and replaced successfully.The hemodynamics and blood gas before and after replacement of ECMO system were observed, and the experience was summarized.Results:Six patients(3 males and 3 females), aging from 1 to 3 months and weighing from 3.0 to 4.9 kg, were received VA-ECMO adjuvant therapy.The ECMO system replacement process was smooth and took 175-209 s. The hemodynamic of the children was stable.The ECMO support time was 134-249 h. After the improvement of cardiac systolic function, all children were successfully withdrawn and survived.Conclusion:The improved method of liquid replacement in ECMO system can make full use of the blood components in the original system and avoid the loss of blood tangible components.According to the plan of rapid replacement, the risk of replacement will not be increased.

Aim To study the antidepressant effects of bioactive compounds from entomogenous fungi(BCEF) in mouse models of depression. Methods The antidepressant effects of Bioactive compounds from entomogenous fungi was examined on the chronic unpredictable stress test, yohimbine induced lethality test, and 5-HTP induced head-twitches test. Results BCEF(50 mg?kg~-1 , ig, qd?21 d)could significantly increase the crossing and rearing score in open-field test. After administration yohimbine 1 h, BCEF 100 mg?kg~-1 group mice mortality rate rising rapidly; BCEF(50,100 mg?kg~-1 ) could distinctly increase the head-twitch number in the 5-HTP induced head-twitches test. Conclusion BCEF has antidepressant effects in depression mouse models. The mechanisms of its antidepressant effects may be related with the reinforcement of central monoamine neurotransmitter especially to 5-HT and NE nerves system.

Objective To investigate the expression of Dysadherin and analyze its role in renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC).Methods RT-PCR and immunohistochemical were used to detect the expression of Dysadherin in 60 cases of fresh RCCC and 60 adjacent normal renal tissues(male 35,female 25; age 37-78,median age 61; ＞7 cm 24,≤7 cm 36; Ⅰ/Ⅱ 39,Ⅲ/Ⅳ 21).Results Dysadherin mRNA expression in RCCC tissues (2.0043±0.2890) was higher than that in adjacent normal renal tissues (0.8461 ±0.2479) (t =6.8020,P ＜ 0.05).Dysadherin expression was associated with nuclear grade.The expression of Dysadherin in nucleus grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ tumors were significantly higher than that in nucleus grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ tumors [the mRNA expression were 4.6224±0.3194,2.7780±0.2288,the positive rates of protein were 64.1％ (25/39),95.2 ％ (20/21) (t =6.5750,x2 =5.495,P ＜ 0.05)].There was no association between the expression of Dysadherin with sex (t =1.0530,x2 =0.023),age(t =0.0511,x2 =0.089) and tumor size (t =1.0330,x2 =0.370) (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion In RCCC,Dysadherin expression is positively associated with tumor aggressiveness based on grading.It seems that Dysadherin may be a valuable prognostic marker in RCCC.

Objective To investigate the choice of surgical procedures in the treatment of temporal occipital epidural hematomas.Methods From March 2006 to March 2011,176 cases with acute temporal occipital epidural hematomas were treated in our hospital.Their clinical data including preoperative Glasgow Coma Sale (GCS),pupil size,hematoma volume,cerebrospinal fluid leakage,time between injury and operation,cerebral midline shift on CT,and brain beat and brain swelling in the operation were retrospectively analyzed.Results There were significant differences in the choice of surgical treatment and prognosis of temporal occipital epidural hematoma according to the preoperative GCS score,pupillary changes,hematoma volume,length of time before surgery,shift of cerebral midline structures,and brain beat and brain swelling in the operation.Conclusion Appropriate surgical procedures selected according to their preoperative and intraoperative conditions is of significant importance for sound prognosis of the patients with acute temporal occipital epidural hematoma.

Objective:To explore the classification and the choice of surgical approach for tentorial meningiomas. Methods: 56 patients with tentorial meningiomas operated on between 1992 and 2002 were retrospectively analysed. According to Gkalp , there were 28 cases with medial tumor,17 cases with lateral tumor,11 cases with falcotentorial tumor. The tumors developing mainly supratentorial were approached from modified pteronal, subtemporal, temporooccipital or occipital craniotomy. For tumors developing mainly in the posterior cranial fossa, suboccipital craniectomy or combined occipital- suboccipital craniectomy was performed. The tumors developing both supratentorial and infratentorial the subtemporal-presigmoidal craniotomy were approached . Results: Total removal was achieved in 53 cases and partial removal in 3 cases. Two cases died of severe postoperative complications. The mortality rate was 3.6%. Five had additional neurological deficits postoperatively. Recurrences occurred in 6 cases. Conclusion: Surgical approach for tentorial meningiomas must be individualized for each case. The operators must master well about microanatomy of the tentorium and its specifically regional structures and expertly use microsurgical techniques for obtaining successful surgery and good outcome.
