Objective To study the relationship between the expression of MAGE-10 genes and the clinical parameters of metastasis and recurrence of patients with Hepatocellular carainama (HCC). Methods The expression of MAGE-10 genes in tumor tissues,liver tissues adjacent to tumor and hepatocirrhosis tissues was examined by RT-PCR method.The relationship between positive expression rate of MAGE-10 genes and clinical parameters of metastasis and recurrence (such as AFP, AFU, Anti-HCV, HBsAg, AFPmRNA, diameter of tumor) in patients with HCC were studied. Results The positive expression rate of MAGE-10 genes significantly higher in tumor tissues than that in the surrounding tumor tissues (51 6% vs. 0%, ? 2=18 95,P 0 05).There was no expression of MAGE-10 in hepatocirrhosis tissues of 10 cases. Conclusions There was a high frequency of MAGE-10 genes expression in HCC,but it is unrelated to the tumor markers,metastasis and recurrence of HCC.

Objective To investigate the effects of low-dose ketamine combined with fentanyl or sulfentanyl in postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia.Methods Two hundred cases with ASA Ⅰ~Ⅱ undergoing elective orthopedic operations were randomly allocated into four groups(50 cases for each group): 0.4?g/(kg?h) fentanyl(group F);0.2?g/(kg?h) fentanyl+120?g/(kg?h) ketamine(group FK);0.04?g/(kg?h) sulfentanyl(group S);and 0.02?g/(kg?h) sulfentanyl+120 ?g/(kg?h) ketamine(group SK).8mg of ondansetron was added to each recipe,and then diluted into 100ml with normal saline.The loading doses of all the patient-controlled-analgesics were 2ml administered 30min before the end of the operation.The background infusion doses were 2ml/h,while the pressing doses were 2ml,with intervals of 30min.Heart rate(HR),blood pressure(BP),respiration rate(RR),pulse O2 saturation and visual analogue scales(VAS),sedation score(SS) with adverse effects and the total times of pressing PCA pump button were observed and recorded in all patients respectively for 48h after operations.Results No statistically significant differences were found in HR,BP and RR among the four groups.VAS and the total pressing times in group F were higher than that in the other groups significantly(P

Objective To investigate the change of renal tubular function in elderly patients after use of β lactam antibiotic. Methods The elderly patients with pulmonary infection were treated with β lactam antibiotic,the dosage was 50%-70% of normal use. The renal tubular function indicated by urine α1-MG, β2-MG, pro/Cre, NAG/Cre and glomerulus function marked by eGFR, serum creatinine (Cre)), cystatin C were detected during drugs treatment and 7 days after stopping medications. Results The infection was controlled well in 3-7 days after treatment. Urine α1-MG, β2-MG, pro/Cre and NAG/Cre were abnormal before treatment, were elevated in 3, 14 days after using antibiotic, and came down to the level before treatment on 7 days after stopping treatment. The level of Cre and eGFR was (89.0±25.97) μmol/L and (26.39±8.17) ml/min before treatment, then elevated and decreased in 14 days after treatment, respectively, and down to the level before treatment on 7 days after stopping of antibiotic. Cystatin c was abnormal before treatment and did not change significantly after treatment and after stopping antibiotic. Conclusions It is important to protect renal tubular function and to adjust antibiotic dosage according to eGFR during using antibiotic in elderly patients to control infection.

BACKGROUND: Degenerated cervical intervertebral discs can release many kinds of cytokines and inflammatory mediums, which plays an important role in onset and development of cervical syndrome.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of anti-cytokine Chinese herb combined with western drug (anti-hyperosteogeny capsule combined with glucosamine hydrochloride capsule) and gene therapy, on the contents of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) of degenerated cervical intervertebral discs in rabbits.DESIGN: Randomized controlled observation.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics and Central Laboratory of Hebei People's Hospital.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Central Laboratory of Hebei People's Hospital from March 2003 to January 2004. A total of 35 New Zealand rabbits of both genders were selected and divided into 7groups according to randomly digital table: normal control group, shallowlayer model group, whole-layer model group, shallow-layer medicine group,whole-layer medicine group, shallow-layer gene group and whole-layer gene group. There were 5 rabbits in each group.METHODS: Except normal control group, rabbits in other 6 groups were used to establish models of dynamic dysequilibrium of cervical vertebra through cutting muscles of cervical back to induce degeneration of cervical intervertebral discs. Superficial group of muscle in cervical region was resected in shallow-layer groups, and both superficial and deep group of muscle was resected in whole-layer groups. ① Seven months after operation, rabbits in medicine groups were respectively treated with 1.1 g/kg anti-hyperosteogeny capsule (consisting of gouji, gusuibu, jixueteng, laifuzi,niuxi, nvzhenzi, roucongrong, shudihuang and yinyanghuo, etc.; Jiangsu Kangyuan Pharmaceutical Company Limited) and 0.06 g/kg glucosamine (Shanxi Zhongyuanwei Pharmaceutical Company Limited), which was dissolved into 20 mL distilled water. The medicine was administrated twice a day for 1 month. ② After anesthetization of rabbits in gene groups, recombinant plasmid DNA combined with transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was injected to C2-3, C3-4 and C4-5 intervertebral disc (20μL per intervetebral disk). Eight months after modeling, rabbits in each group were sacrificed and C3-4 and C4-5 intervertebral disc was used as samples. In addition, contents of IL-1β and TNF-α were measured with double-antibodies-sandwich-ELISA method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Contents of IL-1β and TNF-α in cervical intervertebral discs of rabbits at 8 months after modeling.RESULTS: All 35 rabbits were involved in the final analysis. Eight months after modeling, for contents of IL-1β and TNF-α, shallow-layer model group was higher than normal control group (P ＜ 0.05-0.01); shallow-layer medicine group and shallow-layer gene group were obviously low er than shallow-layer model group (P ＜ 0.05); whole-layer medicine group and whole-layer gene group were lower than whole-layer model group (P＜ 0.05-0.01).CONCLUSION: The degenerated intervertebral discs can release many kinds of cytokine and inflammatory mediators which can enhance the degeneration of cervical intervertebral discs. Antihyperosteogeny capsule combined with glucosamine hydrochloride capsule and gene therapy can obviously reduce the contents of IL-1β and TNF-o in degenerated cervical intervertebral discs.
