Objective To summarize the therapeutic effect of recombinant human growth hormone and early enteral nutrition in severely burned patients. Methods 35 cases were randomly divided into group EN and group PN.Group EN was treated with early enteral nutrition(EEN) and recombiant human growth hormone(rhGH) ,while group PN was given parenteral nutrition. The plasma levels of pre-albumin (PA), C-reactive protein (CRP) , tunmor necrosis factor α(TNFα) ,fasting blood glucose(FBG) were measured after burn injury. Comparision was made in length of hospital stay, wound healing time,incidence of burn sepsis, gastrointestinal stress ulcer bleeding and enteral nutrition intoleranc. Results Incidence of burn sepsis,gastrointestinal stress ulcer bleeding and enteral nutrition intoleranc in group EN were significantly lower than those of group PN(P < 0.05). The serum levels of CRP、TNFα、FBG in group EN were significantly lower than those of group PN (P < 0.05). The serum PA was decreased at all times in two periods and was markedly decreased in group EN(P <0.05). Length of hospital stay and the healing time of donor site, deep partial thickness burn wound, skin transplantion area were significantly shortened in group EN compared with group PN. Conclusion Early enteral nutrition was beneficial for the improving of nutrition state of the burn patients,and the reduction of the incidence of burn sepsis and the hospitalization time.

Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of endoscopic level V lymph node dissection for thyroid cancer.Methods:Two cases undergoing level V lymph node dissection via breast combined with oral approach for papillary thyroid cancer in May. 2021 and Sep.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The primary thyroid lesions and metastatic lymph nodes were diagnosed pathologically by fine needle aspiration before operation. The routine examination such as ultrasound, CT and laryngoscopy were completed before operation.Results:Both operations were successfully completed under endoscopy. In case 1, one lymph node was found in neck V region, and no metastatic lymph node was found. In case 2, 7 lymph nodes were found in cervical V region. No "shoulder syndrome" encompassing shoulder dysfunction and pain was found in either case.Conclusions:The study on the two cases reveals that level V dissection after the routine operation of endoscopic central and lateral neck dissection via breast combined with oral approach for papillary thyroid cancer is feasible and safe. More cases in further study were needed for to verify the finding.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether SIS3, a specific inhibitor of Smad3 phosphorylation, can reverse the stemness of multidrug-resistant(MDR) hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
METHODSMDR HCC Huh7.5.1/ADM cell lines were developed by exposing parental cells to stepwise increasing concentrations of ADM. CCK-8 assay was used to determine the cellular sensitivity of various anticancer drugs. Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to analyze the expression level of cancer stem cell marker CD133. Clone formation assay and mouse subcutaneous xenograft tumors were used to investigate the tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo. Western blotting (WB) was used to analyze the changes of expressions of CD133, Smad3, Bcl-2, Bax and p-Smad3 in different conditions.
RESULTSADM treatment of HCC cells in vitro resulted in a development of subline, Huh7.5.1/ADM cells, with CSC phenotypes: stable MDR phenotype (besides ADMc Huh7.5.1/ADM cells were also more resistant to some other anticancer drugs including VCR, MMC and CTX ) (IC50: 0.215 ± 0.018 vs. 0.123 ± 0.004, 0.145 ± 0.009 vs. 0.014 ± 0.002, 1.021 ± 0.119 vs. 0.071 ± 0.006, 27.007 ± 1.606 vs. 1.919 ± 0.032) (unit: µg/ml) (P<0.05). Huh7.5.1/ADM cells enriched the cancer stem-like cell fraction (CD133-positive subpopulation) (76.06 ± 2.948% vs. 25.38 ± 4.349%) (P<0.05), had stronger tumorigenicity in vivo and colony formation ability, and activated the Smad3 activity. Inhibition of Smad3 activity by SIS3 decreased stemness of the Huh7.5.1/ADM cells: CD133-positive subpopulation (48.49 ± 2.304% vs. 76.06 ± 2.948%) (P<0.05); ADM IC50: (0.112 ± 0.019 vs. 0.215 ± 0.018), VCR IC50 (0.065 ± 0.013 vs. 0.145±0.009), MMC IC₅₀ (0.749 ± 0.121 vs. 1.021 ± 0.119), CTX IC50 (10.576 ± 1.248 vs. 27.007 ± 1.606) (unit: µg/ml) (P<0.05), and decreased tumorigenicity and colony formation ability.
CONCLUSIONSIS3 as a specific inhibitor of Smad3 signal is involved in the stemness of multidrug resistant hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

OBJECTIVETo establish rabbit VX2 colorectal cancer(CRC) model and to compare CT images with gross pathology in order to offer help for TNM staging in patients with CRC.
METHODSVX2 tumor pieces were implanted into colonic wall in 9 New Zealand white rabbits and rectal wall in 2 New Zealand white rabbits. Four weeks after inoculation, Ultravist(370 mg/ml) was injected through ear marginal vein with high pressure injector for stage 3 scanning of chest, abdomen and pelvis, and enhanced CT (collimation 0.5 mm mm × 320, pitch factor 0.828, bulb rotation speed 0.5 s/cycle, 120 kV, automatic ma, range 80 to 100 mAs) was performed to determine the presence of CRC or metastasis once a week for 4-6 weeks. Once inoculated CRC or metastases occurred or 6 weeks after implantation, the rabbits were sacrificed regardless of the presence or absence of CRC or metastasis on the CT images. One rabbit was used for gross anatomy observation. Others were placed in wood boxes with -80centi-degree for 24 hours, then samples of 3 mm thickness were cut using a motorized saw to make macropathology. Each cutting surface of the specimens was photographed in serial number. If certain or suspected lesions were found on the slices, such part was labeled and then placed in 10% phosphate-buffered formaldehyde numbered box for subsequent pathological examination. CT image postprocessing was performed referring to the gross slice specimens and all findings were compared with the pathological reports.
RESULTSAmong 11 rabbits, tumor was successfully established in 8 rabbits. Pathology showed that single lung metastasis (7 to 10 mm) was found in 2 rabbits and liver metastasis (9 mm) in 1 rabbit. Number of lymph node located around the inoculated tumor was 22 and that around mesenteric vessels was 13 with diameter of 2 to 16 mm. Among these 35 lymph nodes from 8 successful rabbits, 9 nodes were positive, including 7 around inoculated tumor and 2 around mesenteric vessels. CT identified above 8 primary inoculated tumors, 2 lung metastatic lesions and 1 liver metastatic lesion, with detection rate of 100%. For the detection of lymph node in CT, 27 nodes were identified in the pericolorectal region (17 nodes) and perimesenteric vessels (10 nodes), in which 6 were positive metastasis (ring-shaped enrichment and central low density necrosis), resulting in a detection rate of 77.1%(27/35 nodes), and positive detection rate of 66.7% (6/9 nodes), respectively.
CONCLUSIONLiving rabbit CT-gross pathological slice(3 mm-cut) of VX2 CRC model can be applied in image evaluation of small metastatic lesion.

Objective:
To construct influenza B virus Vero cell adapted strain by genetic recombination technology by using the influenza B virus Vero cell adapted strain as the parent strain.
Methods:
The chick embryo and Vero cell were co-infected with influenza virus Vero cell adapted strain B/Malaysia/2506/2004 Va (Bv) and the vaccine strain B/massachusetts/2/2012 (BX-51B) recommended by WHO. The reassortants were screened with the anti-Bv serum. Plaque-purified reassortants were used to screen for Vero cell-adapted influenza B virus strains containing the surface antigen of the epidemic strain.
Results:
A Vero cell-adapted influenza B virus strain was obtained with successive passage in Vero cells. The hemagglutination inhibition test and the one-way immunogold agar diffusion test both showed that the reassortant virus was homologous to NYMC BX-51B, and sequence analysis result showed that the reassortment virus has the same HA and NA gene with the vaccine strain.
Conclusion
B/Malaysia/2506/2004Va (Bv) can be used as a parent strain to prepare Vero cell vaccine against influenza B virus.
