Objective To explore the relationship between serum advanced glycation end products(AGEs) levels in gestation diabetic mother(GDM) and cardiovascular function of newborn infants.Methods Sixty mid-gestation GDM and 72 late-gestation GDM fulfilling the inclusion criteria were recruited,72 mid-gestation and 80 late-gestation mothers with no pregnancy complications were collected as controls.Fasting blood glucose and serum AGEs levels were analyzed in each group.Clinical data of GDM and their babys were collected.Accor-ding to cardiovascular function of neonates,these neonates were divided into 2 groups:normal neonate group with normal cardiovascular function and anormal neonate group with anormal cardiovascular function.Maternal serum AGEs levels,blood glucose between mid-gestation groups and late-gestation groups were compared.Factors which affected the prevalence of complications of fetal outcome in GDM were analyzed.Results 1.Mid-gestation and late-gestation GDM groups had higher serum AGEs levels and fasting blood glucose compared with those of their respective controls(Pa0.05).3.Abnormal fetal outcome in GDM had significantly higher maternal serum AGEs levels than that in controls with normal fetal outcome(P

Background Perineural invasion is an important biological character for adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of lacrimal gland,which is different from those of other lacrimal gland tumors.As the important part of neurotrophic factors,glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) plays an important role in perineural invasion for ACC of salivary gland.GDNF regulation in the ACC cell biology function needs to be further explored.Objective This study was to investigate the effect of GDNF on proliferation and migration of ACC cells,and to explore the mechanism of neural invasion in ACC of lacrimal gland.Methods ACC-2 cell line was cultured and passaged in RPMI 1640 medium with 10％ fetal bovine serum,100 U/ml penicillin and 0.1 g/L streptomycin.Single-cell suspension was prepared with the density of 2×104/ml using logarithmic phase of cells and then incubated to 96-well plate.GDNF with the final concentration of 20,60,80,100 and 120 μg/L was added into the medium respectively in the experimental groups,and the cells were cultured in the medium without GDNF as the control group.The expression of GDNF in ACC-2 cells was detected by immunohistochemistry.MTT assay was employed to assay the absorbance value at the wavelength of 570 nm (A570) for the evaluation of proliferation of ACC-2 cells after cultured by different concentrations of GDNF for different time points.Meanwhile,transwell chamber was used to examine the cell migrated number.Results Immunochemistry assay exhibited that ACC-2 cells showed the positive response for GDNF with the brown staining in the cytoplasm.In 48 hours after culture,the A570 value was elevated with the increase of GDNF concentration,showing a significant difference among various groups (F =3.336,P =0.026),and the A570 value in various concentrations of GDNF groups was higher than that of 0 μg/L GDNF group (all P＜0.05).After action of 80 μg/L GDNF,the A570 value of the cells was gradually increased with the prolong of culture time (Ftime =39.979,P=0.000).In 30 minutes after GDNF cultured,the number of migrated cells increased with the increase of GDNF concentration (F=144.886,P=0.000).ACC-2 cells were cultured by 100 μg/L GDNF for 24,30 and 40 hours,the number of migrated cells were more as the time lapse,and more migrated cells were seen in GDNF group at various time points (Ftime =46.747,P =0.000 ; Fgroup =63.786,P =0.000).Conclusions GDNF can stimulate the proliferation and migration of ACC-2 cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy ofZhibai Dihuang Decoction combined with endocrine therapy for kidney-yin deficiency type of advanced prostate cancer and its influence on patient symptoms of hot flashes.Methods Totally 72 cases of advanced prostate cancer patients were randomly divided into the combined group (36 cases) and the control group (36 cases). Patients in the control group were treated with endocrine therapy, while patients in the combined group were additionally treated byZhibai Dihuang Decoction. After 12 weeks of treatment, serum prostate specific antigen (PSA), the international prostate symptom score (I-PSS), the clinical symptoms score, the number of cases of hot flashes and safety index before and after treatment were observed. Results In the course of treatment, the control group and the combined group each had 1 case lost to follow up. PSA and I-PSS in the two groups significantly decreased after treatment (P<0.01). The total efficiency rate of TCM syndrome was 94.3% (33/35) in the combined group, while it was 57.1% (20/35) in the control group, with significant difference (P<0.01). After treatment, the incidence of hot flushes was reduced after treatment in the combined group, but the control group increased, with significant difference (P<0.01). No adverse reaction was found in the two groups.ConclusionZhibai Dihuang Decoction combined with endocrine therapy is more effective than endocrine therapy alone, which can reduce the symptoms of hot flashes.

Objective To observe the effects of self-made Yicong-Shugan drink in the treatment of anxiety disorders before the college entrance examination.Methods Random number table was adopted for dividing 121 outpatients with anxiety disorders before the college entrance examination in the People's Hospital of Gaomi and Gaomi TCM Hospital since January 2007 to March 2011 into a treatment group with 69 cases,and a control group with 52 cases.The treatment group was treated with Yicong-Shugan Decoction,while the control group was given alprazolam.Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA),the Clinical Global Impression Scale (CGI) and Anxiety Rating Scale (SAS) were used to determine the clinical efficacy in both groups before treatment and 1,2,4,6 weeks after the treatment.Results ① In the control group after treatment,one week HAMA score (23.1 ±7.9) was significantly changed than before the treatment (31.1 ±7.6) (P＜0.05); whereas no significant change in the treatment group (P＜0.05).This demonstrated that alprazolam has a faster affection than Yicong-Shugan drink.② HAMA integral scores,CGI integral scores and SAS scores of both groups at 2,4,6 weeks after treatment were:HAMA integral score:(22.6 ± 7.5),(11.7 ± 5.3),(7.9 ± 5.4) in the treatment group,while (18.7 ±6.9),(13.8 ±6.7),(11.8 ±6.5) in the control group; CGI integral score:(3.4 ±0.7),(2.1 ±0.6),(1.8 ±0.7) in the treatment group,while (3.2 ±0.8),(1.8±0.5),and (1.6 ±0.6) in the control group; the SAS scores:(53.8±8.5),(38.7 ±9.6),(30.6 ±7.6) in the treatment group,while (50.2 ±8.9),(41.5 ±9.8),and (39.2 ±8.3) in the control group respectively.All these scores showed significant difference than those before the treatment in the same group (P＜0.01).HAMA and SAS scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than the control group after the treatment (P＜0.01).This demonstrated that both alprazolam tablets and Yicong-Shugan drink have a good anxiolytic effect,but Yicong-Shuxin drink has a longer lasting effects.Conclusion Self made Yicong-Shugan drink can effectively improve the patient with college entrance examination anxiety disorder.Alprazolam tablets have a quicker effects than self-made Yicong-Shugan decoction,while Yicong-Shuxin decoction has a longer lasting effects than alprazolam.

The improvement of hypoxia of tumor cells can effectively reduce their resistance to radiation and chemotherapy and im-prove the cure rate of the tumor. Recently, the compounds which are used to improve hypoxia of tumor cells and reduce radiation resist-ance are no longer just the original electrophilic radiosensitizers, and many potential targets as radiosensitizer for hypoxia also become research focus. Based on the mechanism of tumor hypoxia, the paper summarized the study progresses in four different radiosensitizers including new targeted agents, electrophilic radiotherapy sensitization agents, biological reductants and natural plant extracts.
