The therapeutic mode has changed over time, although surgery remains the main treatment of choice for gastric cancer. Surgery alone provides long-term survival in only 30% of patients with advanced stages because of the high risk of recurrence and metastasis. Multimodal strategies including neoadjuvant and (or) adjuvant protocols combined with surgery have significantly improved the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer. In particular, perioperative chemotherapy has become the new standard for treatment of patients with advanced gastric cancer. Adjuvant therapy should be carefully discussed after surgical resection, mainly in patients with large lymph node-positive tumors when neoadjuvant therapy can not be carried out. This article reviews the relevant literature on the multidisciplinary management of gastric cancer, and discusses strategies to improve the efficacy of locoregional failures.

This study was aimed to explore the tic disorders ( TD ) pathogenesis induced by chronic rhinitis . A total of 400 TD children were all investigated with self-made TD general questionnaire , Yale Global Tic Severity Scale ( YGTSS ) , TD diagnostic criteria by DSM-IV , chronic rhinitis diagnostic criteria by Zhu-Fu-Tang Textbook of Pediatrics ( 7th edition ) . A total of 258 TD children accompanied with chronic rhinitis were screened . Levels of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets , immunoglobulins , IL-6 , TNF-α and other related immunological indexes were detected to analyze pathogenesis. The results showed that the nose movement symptom scores of TD children with rhinitis were higher than the score of TD children without rhinitis . The score of arm-lifting and hand movement in TD children with rhinitis was lower than the score in the TD children without rhinitis . And the YGTSS score of TD children with rhinitis was higher than TD children without rhinitis. Compared with TD children without rhinitis, the level of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets in TD children with rhinitis was obviously reduced ( P < 0 . 05 ) . Compared with TD children without rhinitis , the level of immunoglobulins in TD children with rhinitis was slightly reduced . The level of IL-6 in TD children with rhinitis tended to increase , but the level of TNF-α tended to reduce . It was concluded that chronic rhinitis is one of the factors to induce TD .

OBJECTIVE: Microgravity culture is an emerging cultural technology,which can be used in many fields such as tissue engineering and cell culture,etc. Microgravity bioreactor was used for cell culture in simulated microgravity environment.DATA SOURCE: We search the PubMed database from January 1995 to June 2002, using the key words "microgravity,simulated microgravity,bioreactor, tissue engineering, cell culture, rotating cell culture system" and the language was confined to English.STUDY SELECTION: Inclusion criteria: ① Research of cell culture in simulated microgravity condition. ② Research of tissue engineering of microgravity. ③ Randomized controlled empirical study. ④ Establishment of the simulated microgravity environment. Exclusion criteria: ①Quite obsolete literatures. ② Repeated research.DATA EXTRACTION: A total of 288 articles on reparation of spinal cord injury were collected, according to the inclusion criteria 19 articles were included, and the other 269 articles were excluded because they were repetitive and duplicated researches.DATA SYNTHESIS: ①Cultivation in simulated microgravity had its particular feature and practicability: Shearing force formed by the turbulent flow was avoided; Culture fluid was admixed by rotating; There exists Zero headspace; Anchorage-dependent cell could grow on the carriers; Sufficient oxygenation was provided. ② Cell growth in simulated microgravity environment: cells were prone to aggregate, and much higher cell density was generated. ③ Three-dimensional culture system of animal cells was constructed with microgravity bioreactor to satisfy organ surrogate or requirement of investigation in vitro. ④ Angioid tubiform fabric was generated in the three-dimensional tissue structure constructed with microgravity bioreactor, which was used to generate the blood vessel pipage of tissue engineering. ⑤ Problems needing to solve: Once separated from the microgravity environment, whether the function of three-dimensional structure constructed with microgravity bioreactor can be still remained for long term or not and the structure will be kept invariably or not after transplanted and integrated to parasitifer tissue need further research.CONCLUSION: Technique of simulated microgravity culture is a original tissue culture technology. The central technique is the construction of three-dimensional culture system of animal cells, which can provide a favourable cultural surrounding for the growth and metabolism of mutiplicate cells and tissue blocks, carry out the tissue culture of high density, and keep the specificity of histological differentiation of cultural cells.

Objective:To evaluate the safety of Yangzhengxiaoji capsules for the treatment of cancer and precancerosis. Methods:Clinical trials and studies were collected by searching Chinese and English databases, including CNKI, WANFANG database, VIP information database, Pubmed, ScinenceDirect Online, and MEDLINE@EBSCO. The clinical data of Yangzhengxiaoji capsule for the treatment of cancer and pre-cancerosis were included. The quality of the included studies was then evaluated. Related data were extracted with reference to Cochrane Handbook 5.0. Afterward, meta-analysis was conducted using Revman 5.0 software. Results:A total of 19 studies focusing on 2 125 patients receiving Yangzhengxiaoji capsules were included and investigated in this meta-analysis. Results showed that the adverse reaction rates of myelosuppression, WBC and platelet decrease, gastrointestinal reaction, nausea/vomiting, and hepatotoxicity were sig-nificantly lower in the trial groups with Yangzhengxiaoji capsule-assisted chemotherapy/radiotherapy than in the control groups with chemotherapy/radiotherapy only (P<0.05). The adverse reaction rates of nephrotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, and neurotoxicity were not statistically different between the trial groups and the control groups (P>0.05). Conclusion:Yangzhengxiaoji capsule could be safely administered to treat cancer and precancerosis.

Objective To investigate the enhancing effect of Celecoxib on the anti-proliferative effect of cisplatin (DDP) against human cervical carcinoma HeLa cells and to explore the possible mechanism. Methods After treatment of HeLa cells with Celecoxib or/and DDP, the growth suppression of HeLa cells was measured by MTT assay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by flow cylometry. Results The inhibition of Celecoxib on HeLa cells was dose -dependent and time -dependent.The inhibitory effect was remarkable enhanced in asynergistic or additive pattern after treatment with the combination of Celecoxib and DDP (P =0.000) . Celecoxib (50 μmol/L) and DDP (16 μmol/L) could respectively induce the apoptosis of HeLa cells and this effect of apoptosis induction was increased when combinated Celecoxib with DDP. They could change cell cycle of HeLa cells lines with G_0/G_1 phase cells increasing and S phase cells decreasing. Conclusion Celecoxib combined with DDP shows synergistic anti-tumor effects.

Objective To explore the effect of radiofrequency catheter ablation( RFCA) on cardiac reverse remode-ling and improvement of life quality in cardiomyopathy patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation( PAF) . Methods 95 cardiomyopathy patients with PAF were enrolled in our study and divided into two groups. RFCA group:62 patients received circumferential pulmonary vein isolation, ( left ventricular end-diastolic ) LVEDD ≥55 mm (male), LVEDD ≥50 mm (female); Drug group:33 patients were treated with drug for controlling heart rate ( resting heart rate around 60~80 bpm, heart rate during daily activity <100 bpm) . 72 hours after admission or 6 months after surgery in RFCA group, when the heart rate returned to normal or 6 months after treatment in Drug group, Short-Form36(SF-36) was used to evaluate the quality of living in the patients respectively; transthoracic echocardiography was performed in sinus rhythm;LAD, LVEDD and LVEF of the patients were measured. Results in RFCA group, LAD and LVEDD of 62 patients reduced and LVEF increased in 6 months after surgery statisti-cally significant(P<0. 05). In Drug group, 6 months after treatment, LAD and LVEDD of 33 patients increased ( P<0. 05 ) , without significant change in LVEF. There was no statistical significance in psychological health, physical function and general health perceptions, but there was significant improvement in social function and phys-ical function,affective state, physical role and energy in both RFCA group and drug group (P<0. 05), and it was more obvious in RFCA group(P<0. 05). Conclusion RFCA can reverse cardiac structural remodeling via sinus rhythm maintenance and improve the quality of life in cardiomyopathy patients with PAF.
