As one of the chronic disease of respiratory system,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease contributes to a progressive decline of lung function,as well as the extra-pulmonary effects.Malnutrition,one of the extra-pulmonary effects,becoming the common problem for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.It has severe harm to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients that need us to pay more attention to it.The choice of nutrition assessment tools has important significance for the correct results of nutrition status of the patients.

OBJECTIVE: To compare inhibition effects of arsenacetylic acid(ASAC) on experimental H22 hepatoma-bearing mice in different forms of administration. METHODS: The mice were divided into 5 groups at random after inoculated with H22 hepatoma into their right axillas hypodermic by intraperitoneal injection(ip) and intravenous injection(iv), and then injected with normal saline,cyclophosphamide and different dosage of ASAC, observe the rate of tumor strain becoming tumor, the inhibition effects of the subjects and the effects of the subjects on mice's viscera. RESULTS: Compared with ip,either high, moderate or low dosage of ASAC by iv did have an obvious inhibitory effect on tumor and the tumor inhibition rates were 46.59%, 46.31% and 32.48% respectively; however, the spleen index in groups that of lower dosage of ASAC by two forms of drug administration were increased; there were death by poisoning in the group that iv with high dosage of ASAC.CONCLUSION: Compared with ip, the administration of ASAC by iv has a better effect on tumor.

Objective To identify prognostic factors and imply the appropriate management of pulmonary metastases from osteosarcoma. Methods Data were obtained retrospectively from 99 osteosarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases who received systemic treatments and followed up in Department of Orthopedic Oncology of Peking University People's Hospital from January 2000 to July 2008. The mean followup time was 24.45 months (range, 13-91 months). The average age of the patients at diagnosis was 20.39 years (range, 7-68 years); the male female ratio was 65:34. All the patients had undergone resection of tumors, and 93 of them had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Pulmonary metastases were found in 16 patients at diagnosis of osteosarcoma, in 47 patients during chemotherapy and 36 patients after the whole treatment. The age of patients, the number of pulmonary metastases, the time of appearance of pulmonary metastases,extrapulmonary metastases, the response of primary tumor to chemotherapy and management of pulmonary metastases were analyzed. Results The interval between the diagnosis of osteosarcoma and pulmonary metastases ranged from 0 to 74 months with the mean time of 9.05 months. The 1-year, 2- and 5-year cumulative survival rates were 87.4%, 56.8% and 23.4% respectively in the study, with the median survival time of 25 months. Univariate analysis showed the significant factors included the time of appearance and the management of pulmonary metastases. Cox regression analysis revealed that the time of appearance of pulmonary metastases was the only prognostic factor. There was no significant difference between age, number of pulmonary metastases, extrapulmonary metastases and response of primary tumor to chemotherapy.Conclusion Characteristics related to the time of appearance of pulmonary metastases and surgical management especially as pulmonary resection appear to be more predictive of a successful outcome.

BACKGROUND:The micro-ecological environment has been broken when the ocular prosthesis was inset into the conjunctival sac. The recede of self cleaning function is more conducive to the microbial growth and colonization. The cleaning of plaque biofilm on ocular prosthesis surface affects the patient's wearing comfort and quality of life. It is necessary to seek an effective cleaning method. OBJECTIVE:To compare the clearance effect of five cleaning methods on the palque biofilm on ocular prosthesis surface. METHODS: The conjunctival secretions from 84 patients who were subjected to ocular prosthesis repair were taken for bacterial culture and identification. Fifty pieces of self-curing resin and thermosetting resin artificial eyes were produced. The artificial eyes in each group were randomly divided into five groups, and were cleaned respectively with clear water, volume fraction of 75% ethanol, Boston SIMPLUS, polident and toothpaste. After the completion of the cleaning, the test piece was conducted residual biofilm culture. The clearance effects of different processing modes were evaluated using colony counting method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Eighty-four specimens were submitted for inspection, of which 49 were positive. The Staphylococcusaureus separation rate was 14.29%.Staphylococcus epidermidis separation rate accounted for 13.10%. Maxwel Corynebacterium separation rate accounted for 7.14%. When water, Boston SIMPLUS and toothpaste were used for cleaning, theStaphylococcus aureus colony number in the self-curing resin group was higher than that in the thermosetting resin group (P< 0.05); when ethanol and polident were used for cleaning, there was no difference in the Staphylococcus aureus colony number between these two groups. In self-curing resin, the colony count in the clear water treatment group was higher than that in the other treatment groups (P < 0.05). The colony count in the ethanol treatment group was lower than that in the Boston SIMPLUS group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the colony count between other groups. In thermosetting resin, the colony count in the clear water treatment group was higher than that in the other treatment groups (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the colony count between other groups. These results demonstrate that ethanol, Boston SIMPLUS, polident and toothpaste have better cleaning effects onStaphylococcus aureusbiofilms on the surface of two kinds of ocular prostheses than the clear water rinse. Overal, it is encouraged to clean the artificial eyes using polident and Boston SIMPLUS, in order to avoid the occurrence of microbial infection in the conjunctival sac after wearing ocular prosthesis.
