A mouse model for acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection was established by using the hydrodynamical injection of mouse tail vein, in which the immunocompetent BALB/c mice were hydrodynamically injected with a competent replication plasmid pAAV-HBV1.2 having 1.2 fold over-length of HBV DNA. On day 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 after injection, the levels of HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV DNA in blood serum were detected by using ELISA and fluorogenic quantitative PCR assay (FQ-PCR). And on day 8. HBsAg and HBeAg in liver tissue were assayed by immunohistochemical staining. It was found that HBsAg in blood serum could be detected on day 1 after infection in 14 of 16 mice (85.7%) injected with pAVV-HBV1.2 by using ELISA assay and the peak levels of HBsAg and HBeAg were attained during the first day after injection and then it dropped down gradually up to day 8 following injection. The titer of HBV DNA in blood serum attained its peak on day 2 and maintained a high level later on. On day 8 after injection, its titer was 1.9×10~4 copies/mL. The percentage of HBcAg-positive hepatocytes and HBsAg-positive hepatocytes in liver tissues were 5% and 2% respectively. Thus, by using the hydrodynamic injection with the competent replication plasmid, a mouse model for acute HBV infection is successively developed.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy of ozone injection in treating lumbar disc herniation. Methods One hundred and four patients with CT or MRI proved lumbar disc herniation, including 144 diseased lumbar discs, were enrolled in this study. The main complains were severe pain or numbness in the low back and lower limbs. Under the X-ray guidance, a 21 G needle was punctured into the disc, followed by an injection of 4-40 ml ozone (50 ug/ml) and 40 mg prednisolone acetate into intradiscal and paravertebral space. Results All patients were followed up for 3 to 84 months with an average time of 38 months. The last follow-up check was carried out in March of 2009. The total effective rate was 77.1%, with no occurrence of any serious complications. Conclusion The percutaneous injection of medical ozone into disc and paravertebral space is an effective and safe method for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation.

Objective To explore the efficacy and feasibility of idarubicin combined with medium-dose arabinoside in intensive chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods Fifty remittent patients with induced chemotherapy who underwent the intensive consolidation therapy with medium-dose arabinoside from January 2010 to January 2015 in hematology department of General Hospital of Beijing Military Area were considered as the treatment group. The single arabinoside (2 g/m 2, 1/12 h, d1-3) treatment for 50 cases in the same period were considered as the control group. Two groups were performed with 6 courses sequential. There were 28 males, 22 females in the treatment group, and average age was 27.6 years (18-52 years), with 3 cases of M 1, 27 cases of M2, 8 cases of M4, 12 cases of M5. In the control group, there were 30 males, 20 females, and average age was 26.8 years (16-50 years), with 2 cases of M1, 30 cases of M2, 8 cases of M4, 10 cases of M5. Then the complications and disease-free survival of two groups were observed respectively. Results Follow-up was done until June 2015. In the treatment group, 1 case died of pulmonary infection, 2 cases died of septic shock and 3 cases died of pulmonary infection, 1 case died of septic shock in the control group. The treatment related mortality of both groups were 6 % (3/50), 8 % (4/50), the related relapse rates were 32 % (16/50), 52 % (26/50), the disease-free survival rates were 62 % (31/50), 40 % (20/50) respectively in two groups. Conclusion Compared with the single arabinoside, the intensive consolidation therapy with medium-dose arabinoside and idarubicin for the treatment of AML has gained lower relapse rate and the related mortality, and the DFS rate has been improved significantly, which need further clinical application.

To study the name of Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum and Film Turmeric by literature research methods provide the basis for correct application of Cuba in modern clinical application. Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum and Film Turmeric often called each other mutual generation and used as the same kind of medicine in the ancient prescriptions books. They were often recorded and stated as the same species of Curcumae Longae Rhizoma. Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum and Curcumae Longae Rhizoma also often called each other mutual generation in the ancient prescriptions books and used as the same kind of medicine. Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum was often recorded and stated under the Curcumae Longae Rhizoma articles in the ancient materia medica literatures. Ancient literatures on Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum records were almost the same, the modern literatures on the records of the sources of Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum were inconsistency. Inconsistency of Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum source records in modern literatures was related to the changes of the modern records on source records about Curcumae Longae Rhizoma, Root-tuber of Aromatic Curcumae Longae Rhizoma and Zedoray. The author thinks that Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum is the ancient Film Turmeric which referes to the same medicine as Curcumae Longae Rhizoma. The source of it just as the Curcumae Longae Rhizoma is not only one kind. Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum and Curcumae Longae Rhizoma have been recorded as two medicines at the present, and the source of them simply referes to the original plant Curcuma wenyujin. When using ancient prescriptions, we need to understand the changes that Curcumae Longae Rhizoma and Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum are the same in ancient but different today in order to choose medicine correctly in the clinical.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of decitabine combined with IA or CAG regimen in the treatment of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia.Methods A retrospective analysis was made to observe the therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of 47 elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia,who were divided into DAC+IA group (17 cases) and DAC+CAG group (28 cases) according to the different chemotherapy.Results In DAC+IA group,the rate of complete remission was 29.4 ％ (5/17),the rate of partial remission was 35.3 ％ (6/17),the effective rate was 64.7 ％ (11/17).In DAC+CAG group,the rate of complete remission was 26.7 ％ (8/30),the rate of partial remission was 30.0 ％ (9/30),the effective rate was 56.7 ％ (17/30),the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (x2 =0.227,P =0.716).In DAC+IA group the median remission time and the median suvival time were 4.0 and 8.1 months,respectively.And they were 4.0 and 8.1 months,respectively,in DAC+CAG group.No significant difference was showed between the two groups (P value was 0.835,0.266,respectively).Conclusions Compared with decitabine combined with CAG regimen,decitabine combined with IA regimen has similar effect and can be well tolerated.Accordingly,decitabine combined with IA regimen can be used as first-line treatment for elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Objective To observe the efficacy and adverse reaction of ozone therapy combined with gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) regimen in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.Methods Fifty-five patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer were enrolled and allocated to treatment group (28 cases) and control group (27 cases).The patients in treatment group received ozone therapy combined with GP regimen,and the patients in control group received GP regimen only.The efficacy,quality of life,adverse reaction and cellular immune function after treatment was compared between two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the efficacy between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The quality of life after treatment in treatment group was better than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).The liver function damage in treatment group was lower than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).The cellular immune function in treatment group was stronger than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ozone therapy combined with GP regimen can effectively alleviate adverse induced by GP regimen chemotherapy and significantly improve the quality of life in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI)semiquantitative assessment of pathological vascularity in grading cerebral gliomas.Methods Images of thirty-six patients with gliomas(1 5 low-grade and 21 high-grade gliomas)were obtained before therapy.Standard clinical MR imaging and SWI were performed at GE 3.0T scanner.All SWI postprocessed images were reviewed independently by two neuroradiologists and the number of vessels in tumor region were scored. Tumor were graded according to the World Health Organization classification.Results In 1 5 cases of low-grade glioma,semiquanti-tative assessment of pathological vascularity scored 0 in 6 cases,1 in 9 cases.In 21 cases of high-grade gliomas,semiquantitative as-sessment of pathological vascularity scored 2 in 18 cases,3 in 2 cases,1 in 1 case.There was a statistical significance between low-grade and high-grade gliomas(Z =-5.327,P <0.05).The grade of intratumoral pathological vascularity detected on SWI was asso-ciated with tumor grade.Conclusion It is usefull that SWI semiquantitative assessment of pathlogical vascularity in grading cerebral gliomas between low-grade and high-grade.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the amount of grafted cells and the incidence of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) after haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). Methods Data of 68 patients who underwent haplo-HSCT from Jan 2009 to Dec 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Influences of different factors on the incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree of aGVHD after HSCT were evaluated. Results 68 patients including 42 males and 26 females were 5/10-9/10 HLA match with 19 father donors, 24 mother donors, 16 sibling donors and 9 children donors. 51 patients not suffered Ⅲ-Ⅳdegree of aGVHD included 32 males and 19 females with the mean age of 20 years old (5-55 years old). 17 patients sufferedⅢ-Ⅳdegree of aGVHD including 10 males and 7 females with the mean age of 23 years old (5-54 years old). There were no significant differences in the amount of the grafted mononuclear cells (MNC) and CD34+cells, and the white blood cell counts (WBC) and platelet count (Plt) recovered time between two groups (P>0.05). However, MNC number was related to CD34+cell number (P<0.05) and WBC recover time (P<0.05), and the CD34+cells number was related to WBC and Plt recover time (P< 0.05). Conclusion The incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree of aGVHD is unrelated to the amount of grafted MNC, and CD34+cells.
