ObjectiveTo study the influence of preoperative transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) on liver resection in patients with resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodsTACE was performed before liver resection in 62 out of 126 patients, and perioperative risk factors were compared with that of the 64 patients without TACE including liver perioperative function alterations, average blood loss during operation, the average time of clamping porta hepatis and operation, abdominal drainage at 1-, 2-, and 3-days post-op, mortality and morbidity. ResultsThere was not significant difference in liver function alteration in the two groups, there was no mortality in the two groups. Liver cirrhosis in TACE group was more serious than that in no TACE group, the operation time was longer in TACE group. Blood loss, and abdominal drainage were much more in TACE group than in no TACE group. However postoperative complications did not differ.Conclusion Preoperative TACE for resectable HCC increases surgical difficulty and risk. Preoperative TACE for resectable HCC needs to be used on baseis of strict selection.

Objective To study the non-covalent binding between the tectoridin(TE) and plasma proteins.Methods The molecular weights of TE,human serum albumin(HSA),?1-acid glycoprotein(AAG) and the protein-drug complexes were measured by the electrospray ion trap mass spectrometry(ESI-MS).The maximum stoichiometric ratios were obtained according to the molecular weight change of the complexes before and after binding reaction.The binding constants(K) of the complexes were calculated by the Scatchard equation.The main sorts of binding force of the complexes were deduced according to the relationship between the reaction temperature and the thermodynamic parameters(?H and ?S).Results The K of the complexes were 1.914?104 mol/L for TE-HSA and 5.893?104 mol/L for TE-AAG,and the number of binding sites were 7.8 and 3.3,respectively.The main sorts of binding force between TE-HSA or TE-AAG were static-electricity gravitation.Conclusion ESI-MS is a good method for studying of the TE-protein non-covalent binding with some advantages in sensitivity,high-speed,and accuracy.

ObjectiveTo analyze the relative influential factors of hearing rehabilitation of the deafened children with multichannel cochlear implant. Methods42 prelingually deafened children who accepted multichannel cochlear implant were evaluated with their hearing ability, hearing thresholds and talent level, while their family and usage of the multichannel cochlear were investigated. Results and ConclusionThe result shows that the factors influencing the hearing rehabilitation are the occupations of the parents, income of the family, the time between diagnosing deaf and the operation, the time after the cochlear implant operation and the talent level. The results of the logistic regression show that the deafened children can gain their hearing developing rapidly if they living in a family with high income, their mothers have accepted more education, and they accepted longer time of continuing hearing-aid, etc.

Objective To analyze the distribution and influential factors of exam results in medical students' general surgery theory course.Methods 171 medical students were selected as subjects by cluster sampling,and the distribution and influential factors of exam results were analyzed.SPSS 17.0 software was used for statistical analysis,measurement data with (-x) ± s,and normality test with Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.Those quantitative data which do not meet the normal distribution were compared with Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis H test.Rank transformation univariate multi-factor variance of LSD (Levene test equal error variance between groups) or Tamhane method (Levene test range error variance between groups) were compared between two groups(3-4) and the influence factors of whether the grade was good was analyzed by single factor and multi factor non conditional Logistic regression model,with the test level of alpha=0.05.Results The distribution of total exam results was normal.77 score was outlier,and the scores of female students were higher than those of male students.Scores of total exam results,multiple-choice questions and essay questions in different classes were significantly different.Data from multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male students(OR=0.212,95％CI:0.077-0.584) were unfavorable factor for good exam results,while higher scores in noun explanation (OR=12.160,95％CI:1.985-74.495),multiple-choice questions (OR=9.887,95％CI:2.997-32.617),essay questions(OR=18.323,95％CI:6.593-50.928) were favorable factors.Conclusion The cause analysis of score's outlier and sex difference should be strengthened,and the influence of examination items on score should be emphasized.

Objective　To study the value of B type ultrasonography guiding percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (PRFA) for hepatic cancer (HC). Methods　70 patients with primary or metastatic hepatic malignancies were treated by PRFA under ultrasound guidance through LeVeen multipolar array needle electrode and RF 2000. All patients were followed up by turnor marker, B type sounography and MRI monthly. Results　PRFA were performed in 53 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and 17 cases with metastatic liver cancer. Liver function classfication was 53 cases in Child class A, 15 in class B and 2 in class C. In 21 patients with non-operated small HCC (≤5 cm), 12 of 17 patients with AFP positive were decreased to normal (70.6%) and decreased markedly in 4 (23.5%), and MRI showed the treated tumors were completely necrosis in 16 patients (76.2%). The 3, 6 month survival rates were 90.5%, 100% respectively in small HC groups, and 66.7% to 72.7% and 27.6% to 72.7% in large HC groups.Conclusions　PRFA as a local thermal therapy is becoming a kind of new palliative treatment for hepatic malignancies, which not only is safe, minimally invasive, and effective for small ones; but also can be used with combination of TACE for larger ones.

Objective To discuss and analyze the clinical relationships between the gene polymorphism of vitamin D receptor and adiponectin with the susceptibility of non-alcohol fatty liver disease(NAFLD).Methods One hundred and two cases of NAFLD were selected as the observation group,and other 100 healthy volunteers were selected as the control group.The gene polymorphism of vitamin D receptor and adiponectin in the two groups was detected,then the genotype distribution and allele frequencies of vitamin D receptor and adiponectin were compared between the two groups,then their relationship with the susceptibility of NAFLD was analyzed.Results The genotype distribution situation of vitamin D receptor BsmI site,adiponectin 45 and 276 sites had statistically significant difference between the observation group and control group(P＜0.05).The B allele frequency of BsmI site of vitamin D receptor in the observation group was far lower than that in the control group,and the allele frequencies of 45-T and 276-G of vitamin D receptor in the former were far higher than those in the latter,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that vitamin D receptor:bb genotype,adiponectin 45 locus:TT genotype and ALT,TG,complicating hypertension history and HOMA-IR all were the independent risk factors in NAFLD patients.Conclusion The genotype distribution of different sites of vitamin D receptor and adiponectin has obvious abnormality in the patients with NAFLD,and both are closely related with the NAFLD susceptibility.

Objective To investigate circulating betatrophin levels in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients (NAFLD). To explore its association with various metabolic parameters in Chinese subjects. Methods From August 2014 to April 2015 , 58 patients with NAFLD and 41 non-NAFLD control subjects with age and sex matched were enrolled in the Department of Endocrinology of Zhujiang Hospital. Results In NAFLD group, serum betatrophin concentrations significantly increased (781.96 vs. 431.89 pg/mL, P < 0.05) and associated only with HDL-cholesterol level. In normal group, betetrophin levels are associated with multiple metabolic parameters, such as fasting glucose, insulin, C peptide, HOMA-IR, QUICK index and HDL-C levels. Conclusions Serum betatrophin concentration significantly elevated in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients and was negatively correlated with HDL-C level (r = -0.479, P < 0.001).

Objectives To evaluate the effect of N-Acetylcysteine on the airway inflammation and remodeling of obese asthma mice with high-fat diets. Methods Forty female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 4 groups, asthma group (A), obese asthma group (B), treatment group (C) and normal control group (D). Group A were sensitized and challenged by ovalbum (OVA) and normal diets. Group B were sensitized and challenged as group A but fed with high-fat diets, while group C were sensitized, challenged and fed as group B, but administrated N-Acetylcysteine 200 mg/kg. d from the third week after challenge. The cells in BALF were counted and classified after staining, IL-6 and 8-iso-PGF2α(8-iso-PGF2α) in lung tissues were detected by ELISA. WAt, WAm, Pbm, as the remodeling indices, measured in lung pathological section. All parameters were compared among 4 groups. Results In comparison with group D, the leukocytes and EOS in BALF, WAt/Pbm, WAm/Pbm in lung section were increased as well as IL-6 and 8-iso-PGF2α in lung tissue elevated in group A and group B, while the maximum changes were observed in group B (P ＜0. 05). After NAC treatment, the IL-6, 8-iso-PGF2α and WAt/ Pbm were decreased significantly (P ＜0. 05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that WAt/Pbm and IL-6 were in positive correlation with 8-iso-PGF2α (r =0. 817, 0. 737, P ＜0. 01). Conclusions N-Acetylcysteine can alleviate the airway inflammation and remodel reaction of asthma by a substantial inhibition of the oxidative stress reaction in lung.

Aim To investigate the role of chemokine-like factor 1 ( CKLF1 ) in SH-SY5 Y cell migration and its molecular regulatory mechanism. Methods SH-SY5Y cells were stimulated with CKLF1 for 0. 5 h, 2 h, 8 h and 24 h, respectively. The migration distance and the percentage of migration cells were recorded by CELLocate analysis. The phosphorylation of focal ad-hesion kinase ( FAK) at Tyr-397 site was detected by Western blot analysis. By chemotaxis assays, we con-firmed the chemotaxis of CKLF1. Furthermore, FAK inhibitor PF-573228 and PLCγ inhibitor U73122 were used for the research of molecular regulatory mecha-nisms involved. Results CKLF1 promoted cell migra-tion and induced a strong increase in the phosphoryla-tion level of FAK-pY397 , which were significantly at-tenuated by the presence of U73122 ( a specific inhibi-tor for PLCγ) . In addition, the chemotaxis of CKLF1 was obviously blocked by the FAK inhibitor PF-573228 . Conclusion CKLF1 induces SH-SY5 Y cell migration via PLCγ/FAK signaling pathway.
