This research was aimed to find the skin irritation and burns treatment effect of wound dressing with mi- crospheres containing levofloxacin. We used reference GB/T16886. 10-2005 to evaluate the dressing skin irritation. We prepared rabbit models divided into three groups. The control group was rapped with Vaseline gauze bandage, while the positive control group was rapped with the wounds of nano-silver paste bandage. The experimental sample group was rapped with wound dressing with microspheres containing levofloxacin. We measured the wound without healing area and the hydroxyproline content at the ends of 3 d, 6 d, 9 d, 14 d, 21 d, 28 d. and meanwhile performed histopathological examination. The experimental results showed that the dressing primary irritation index was 0. The nonhealing wound area of theexperimental sample group and positive control group at the ends of 6 d, 9 d, 14 d, 21 d were less than that of the control group (P<0. 05). The nonhealing wound area of the experimental sample group at the ends of 9 d and 14 d was significantly lower than that of the positive control group (P < 0.05). The hydroxyproline content of the experimental sample group at the ends of 6 d, 9 d and 14 d was significantly higher than that of the positive control group and blank control group (P<0. 05). The pathology observed of the experimental sample group at 21 d were the earliest appendages. The wound dressing with microspheres containing levofloxacin has minimal skin irritation, effectively promote wound healing of burn.

BACKGROUND:The preliminary findings confirm that bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation is safe and effective in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction, but its exact mechanism is unclear. There are few studies addressing the survival status of transplanted stem cells and its acting timing.
OBJECTIVE:To study the survival of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplanted into the infracted myocardium. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured using density gradient centrifugation. Eighty rat models of myocardial infarction were prepared. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were injected via a microsyringe at four sites around the infarcted region at 14 days after modeling. Then, 70 rats with living cells were selected for detecting the survival of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells at days 3, 5, 7, 10, 20, 28 after transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under ×400 visual field, the number of Brdu-positive bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was (36±12) at 3 days posttranplantation, (33±13) at 5 days, (28±9) at 7 days, (15±5) at 10 days, (5±3) at 14 days, 0 at 20 days, and 0 at 28 days, showing a overal downward trend after transplantation. The number of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was negatively correlated with transplant days (P<0.01, r=-0.47). The number of cells decreased most significantly within 1 week after transplantation, and then decreased to 0 at 20 days. These findings indicate that transplanted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the myocardium cannot survive for a long term and also cannot be transformed into myocardial tissue.

Objective To evaluate clinical efficacy and survival outcomes of neoadjuvant treatment on early stage bulky cervical carcinoma.Methods A total of 155 cases with bulky stage Ⅰ b2 or Ⅱ a2 cervical carcinoma in Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Shantou University Medical College from Nov.2010 to Feb.2015 was reviewed and divided into two groups according to pre-operative treatment 108 cases in the neoadjuvant treatment group and 47 cases in the control group who underwent radical surgery directly.The clinical,pathologic,and follow-up data were analyzed retrospectively.Results The total response rate of neoadjuvant treatment was 75.0％.Histological grade in neoadjuvant treatment group was better than the other group and the rate of deep myometrial infiltration was tend to low in neoadjuvant treatment group.There was no difference in pathological type,parametrial involvement,lymph node metastasis,and lymph vascular space invasion between two groups.The rate of postoperative treatment was similar (92.6％ vs 87.2％,P ＞ 0.05).The overall survival rate of neoadjuvant treatment group was 96.4％ and the other group was 88.9％ (P =0.069).Conclusions Neoadjuvant treatment was effective for early stage bulky cervical carcinoma.It might reduce tumor histological grade and maybe improve the overall survival of patients.

The apoptosis ratio of spleen cells in fluorine group in 30,60,90 days[(2.31±0.36)%,(2.76±0.22)%,(3.04± 0.29)%]was higher than that in control group[(1.14±0.21)%,(1.23±0.23)%,(1.29±0.20)%,P<0.01].The apoptosis ratio of spleen cells in selenium antagonism group in 60,90 days[(2.42 ±0.32)%,(2.73±0.39)%]was lower than that in fluorine group(P<0.05 or<0.01).Conclusion A certain concentration of selenium can antagonize the immunity inhibition of fluorine by decreasing apoptosis and improving the unbalance of T-cell subset.

OBJECTIVE To understand nosocomial candidal infection among tuberculosis patients and its drug(sensitivity).(METHODS) Totally 6280 clinical samples from Jan 2002 to Dec 2004 were cultured;and part of(positive) ones were tested their drug sensitivity to FC,FLC,KET and ITC.RESULTS From all cultured samples 2767 Candida strains(positive rate was 44.06%) were isolated.From them C.albicans,C.glabrata,C.tropicalis,C.krusei and other Candida were 2006, 344,206,95 and 116 strains,their positive rate was 31.94%,(5.48%),3.28%, 1.51% and 1.85%,respectively.Their drug sensitivity rate to four drugs were as follows: to FC was 93.73%,to TTC 62.76%,to FLC 51.03% and to KET was 47.59%. CONCLUSIONS The condition of(tuberculosis) patient would become serious due to higher dual infection rate by Candida after too long anti-(tuberculosis) treatment.Among the four kinds of drugs the FC has the best anti-candidal activity.

Objective To explore the value of serum CA125 level to the prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods The clinicopathologic data and serum CA125 level of 76 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer from Jan.2003 to Dec.2009 were analyzed retrospectively, and the outcomes of patients were followed up.Results No relationship was found between CA125 concentration before therapy with prognosis and cytoreductive condition for epithelial ovarian cancer.The normal or abnormal CA125 concentration after 3 courses of treatment meant different prognosis, with the 5-year survival rates of 63.8 ％ and 25.0 ％, and the median survival time of 57 months and 28 months, respectively (x2 =19.951, P =0.000).The 5-year survival rates of patients with CA125 concentration≤ 10.0 U/ml and＞10.0 U/ml after therapy were 72.7 ％ and 42.8 ％, respectively (x2 =7.266, P =0.007).According to multivariate Cox proportional-hazard model, two independent factors , operative pathological staging and CA125 concentration after 3 courses, were related significantly to the prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Serum CA125 level, especially after 3 courses and therapy, plays an important role in the prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To repair the postoperative tissue detect of the base of tongue cancer in advanced patients. METHOD: There were 30 patients of medium-high differentiation squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) included in this study. According to the TNM staging of AJCC 2002, there were 4 cases of T2N1M0, 7 of T3N1M0, 10 of T3N2M0, 4 of T4N1M0 and 5 of T4N2M0. Surgical approach of the primary lesion: 12 with transhyoidpharyngotomy approach and 18 with mandibulotomy approach. All cases accepted radiotherapy 4-6 weeks after surgery. RESULT: Twenty-five cases were reconstructed with pedicle pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps, and all them survived. Among them, 1 flap was partial split with surrounding tissue spontaneously, and another flap had partial tissue necrosis, however, both flaps grew well with dressing and other local treatment. Other 5 cases were reconstructed with free anterolateral myocutaneous flaps. Among them, 1 flap had partial tissue necrosis, but had a secondary healing after removing necrotic tissue via mouth approach. All 18 patients of larynx-preservation had tracheal tube pulled out. The 3-year survival rate was 68% and the local control rate was 87%. CONCLUSION Pedicle pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps and free anterolateral myocutaneous flaps were alternative donor area for repairing postoperative tissue defect of the base of tongue; The former was preferred, and the latter was concealed so as to be a kind of effective method, which need adept technique of microsurgery.
