Radiation-induced skin injury refers to the acute and chronic skin damage caused when skin is exposed to radiation. Radiation-induced skin damage may be created by nuclear disaster, radiation accident, radiation therapy, occupational exposure and so on. Approximately 95% of patients receiving radiotherapy will eventually develop into radiation-induced dermatitis during or after the treatment. As a consequence, how to appropriately prevent and remedy radiation-induced skin injury is of great practical significance. According to traditional Chinese medicine, radiation-induced skin injury belongs to fire, heat and toxin, blocking Qi and blood, injuring the muscle surface, affecting the distribution of Qi, blood and body fluid in the body, and damaging the function of viscera. This paper summarizes the cognition and development of traditional Chinese medicine theory of radiation-induced skin injury, as well as the research progress of internal and external treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, so as to provide a basis for the research and treatment of radiation-induced skin injury with traditional Chinese medicine.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of electrical acupuncture therapy through adhesive surface electrodes and concomitant auricular acupuncture therapy on acute spinal cord injury.MethodsA total of 56 acute spinal cord injury patients with American Spinal Injury Association(ASIA) impairment grading of A and B were recruited into this study.They were randomly divided into the acupuncture and control groups.In the acupuncture group,electrical acupuncture therapy via the adhesive surface electrodes and auricular acupuncture were applied.Rehabilitation therapy was also provided to the patients during acupuncture therapy.In the control group,only rehabilitation therapy was provided to the patients.The ASIA neurologic and functional scores and the Functional Independence Measure(FIM) scores were assessed during the time of admission,hospital discharge,and 1-year postinjury follow-up.There were no adverse events.ResultsThere were significant improvements in neurologic(sensory and motor),functional,and FIM scores in the acupuncture group compared with the control either when hospital discharged or 1-year postinjury follow-up.There was no adverse events.ConclusionThe early use of concomitant auricular and electrical acupuncture therapies are effective and safe in treating acute spinal cord injury.

Objective To assess the role of promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML)and P53 in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC)and its precursor lesions. Methods Different expression patterns of PML and P53 of 241 cases of ESCC combined with adjacent precursors were analyzed by tissue array and immunohistochemistry and correlated with clinicopathological parameters. Results In ESCC and its precursor lesions, PML and P53 displayed positive or strong positive, while in normal esophageal epithelia, these proteins showednegative or stained positive only in parabasal cell layer. The expression level of PML was correlated with the depth of invasion of esophageal carcinomas (X2=29.461,P<0.001),lymph metastasis status(X2=15.226,P<0.001)and pTNMs(x2=26.956,P

ObjectiveTo explore the characteristics and correlation of intelligence development and socioemotional development in 1~3 years old children with expressive language disorder,and provide a basis for early intervention.Methods125 cases with expressive language disorder(language disorder group) and 126 normal children (normal group) are evaluated in two parts (intelligence and social mood) with 0~6 years old neuropsychological development diagnosis scale and Chinese version of urban infant-toddler social and emotional assessment.Results (1)The scores in language disorder group were lower than normal group in the area of free movements (81.60±10.40 vs 89.62±7.94),adaptability (81.48±10.95 vs 91.25±8.89),language (67.46±7.20 vs 89.13±8.24),social behavior (76.61±9.73 vs 90.12±8.13) and total developmental quotient (80.17±6.39 vs 91.15±6.05) (P<0.05).(2) There were significant differences between language disorder group and normal group in the area of externalizing behavior(56.28±10.15 vs 53.57±7.91),deregulation (56.45±10.61 vs 51.11±9.32) and capabilities(46.79±9.08 vs 51.25±7.47) (P<0.05).The boys' scores in internalizing behavior were lower than the girls' (49.19±10.76 vs 54.71±9.90) (P<0.05).(3) The scores of gross motor had positive correlation with externalizing behavior (r=0.220,P<0.05).The scores of language had negative correlation with externalizing behavior and deregulation(r=-0.650,P<0.05;r=-0.470,P<0.05).The scores of social behavior had negative correlation with externalizing behavior (r=-0.208,P<0.05).There was also a negative correlation between total development and deregulation (r=-0.184,P<0.05).(4) Multiple stepwise linear regression results showed that the externalizing behavior domain and mothers' education could predict 44.1% of variances in the language area.ConclusionThe children with expressive language disorder not only show backward in level of language development,but also in the development of other areas,and also bad social behavior and emotional problems.Individualized parenting interventions should be adopted to promote these children's intelligent development in an all-round way.

Objective To develop fast detection techniques for the diagnosis of gonococcal infections.Methods Prokaryotic expression vector for Neisserial surface protein A (NspA) was constructed using the NspA gene cloned by PCR.Mice were immunized with the renatured recombinant NspA (rrNspA)to prepare antibodies against NspA.Western blot and ELISA was used to analyze the binding of NspA antibodies to lysate of gonococcal cells or to intact gonococci.Results NspA antibodies that were prepared by the rrNspA expressed in E.coli could bind to rrNspA,the natural NspA existing in gonococcal cells,or intact gonococci.Conclusion RrNspA and its antibodies have potential value in developing fast diagnostic kits for gonococcal diseases.

Objective To evaluate the risk factors of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) for the early detection and early treatment of CKD.Methods One hundred and twenty-seven CKD patients were divided into groups according to AKI existing, 60 cases with out AKI (CKD group), 67 cases with AKI (A/C group) and then A/C group patients were divided into non-older age group (35 cases, ＜60 years old) and older age group (32 cases, ≥60 years old).The protopathy, causative factors and so on were analyzed.Results There was different causative factors in different age group.Logistic regression model indicated that the major risk flactors of AKI in CKD were severe infection (OR = 5.236),hypovolemia (OR = 5.083 ),heart failure (OR = 8.283) and using renal toxicity medicine (OR = 5.246),P ＜ 0.05.Conclusion The major risk factors of AKI in CKD patients include severe infection, hypovolemia, heart failure and renal toxicity medicine.

Aim To investigate the effect and mecha-nism of quercetin combined with cisplatin on prolifera-tion and apoptosis of human osteosarcoma cell line MG-63 . Methods MG-63 cells were treated with quercetin alone or combined with cisplatin. Cellular morphologic changes were observed under inverted phase contrast microscope. The effects of proliferation inhibition were assayed by CCK-8 method. The combination effect was judged through Chou-Talaly analysis. The apoptosis ra-tios of cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The gene expression of Bcl-2 and caspase-3 was detected by RT-PCR assay. The protein expression of Bcl-2 and caspase-3 was measured by Western blot assay. Re-sults Quercetin alone or combined with cisplatin could inhibit the proliferation, but induce the apoptosis of MG-63 cells. Combination of quercetin and cisplatin revealed a synergistic effect on cell proliferation and apoptosis as it reduced the expression of Bcl-2 but en-hanced that of caspase-3 at both gene and protein lev-els. Conclusion Synergistic effect of quercetin com-bined with cisplatin on cell proliferation and apoptosis of MG-63 cells is possibly due to reduction of Bcl-2 and enhancement of caspase-3 expression.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the validity of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 imaging in nasopharyngeal carcinoma mice model compared with 99mTc-MIBI imaging. METHOD: Biodistribution of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 were performed on Kunmin mice. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma BALb/c nude mice models were replicated by subcutaneous injection of CNE cells. After intravenous injection of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 or 99mTc-MIBI images were acquired with SPECT, regions of interesting (ROI) were drawn to evaluate the uptake of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 or 99mTc-MIBI in tumor imaging. Tumor to non-tumor ratios (T/N) were used as index of evaluation. RESULT: Biodistribution study indicated most of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 was accumulated in liver, kidney, lung and heart. The T/N values had no significant difference between 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 and 99mTc-MIBI at 30 min post injection. The peak T/N value of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 reached at 120 min post injection. The best time for imaging was 120 min post injection. The T/N ratio was significantly higher in the group of 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 than that of 99mTc-MIBI at 120 min. CONCLUSION 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 can be used for nasopharyngeal carcinoma mice model imaging. The best time of imaging is 120 min. 99mTc-N(NOEt)2 is a potential imaging agent for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
