The study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics of S-1 capsule (tegafur, gimeracil and potassium oxonate capsule) in patients with advanced gastric cancer after single and multiple oral administration. Twelve patients with advanced gastric cancer were recruited to the study. The dose of S-1 for each patient was determined according to his/her body surface area (BSA). The dose for single administration was 60 mg every subject. The dose for multiple administration for one subject was as follows: 100 mg x d(-1) or 120 mg x d(-1), 28-days consecutive oral administration. The pharmacokinetic parameters of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, potassium oxonate and uracil after single oral administration were as follows: (2,207 +/- 545), (220.0 +/- 68.2), (374.9 +/- 103.0), (110.5 +/- 100.8) and (831.1 +/- 199.9) ng x mL(-1) for Cmax; (11.8 +/- 3.8), (4.4 +/- 3.3), (7.8 +/- 5.1), (3.1 +/- 0.9) and (8.8 +/- 4.1) h for t1/2, respectively. After six days oral administration, the average steady state plasma concentrations (Cav) of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, potassium oxonate and uracil were (2,425 +/- 1,172), (73.88 +/- 18.88), (162.6 +/- 70.8), (36.89 +/- 29.35) and (435.3 +/- 141.0) ng x mL(-1), respectively, and the degree of fluctuation (DF) were (1.0 +/- 0.2), (2.5 +/- 0.4), (3.1 +/- 0.8), (2.4 +/- 0.8) and (1.5 +/- 0.3), respectively. The cumulative urine excretion percentage of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil and potassium oxonate in urine within 48 h were (4.2 +/- 2.8) %, (4.7 +/- 1.6) %, (18.5 +/- 6.0) % and (1.7 +/- 1.2) %, repectively, after single oral administration of S-1. The results exhibited that tegafur had some drug accumulation observed, and gimeracil, potassium oxonate, 5-fluorouracil and uracil had no drug accumulation observed.

Objective To explore the effect of loading density of different rigid containers on wet package of orthopedic instruments in the department of orthopedics and to provide the basis for right loading of rigid container so as to ensure the success of the sterilization. Methods About 120 cases of orthopedic exotic instruments for knee surgery were selected from our hospital, according to size and weight of the knee surgery instrument and then evenly divided into Groups A, B, C, 40 pieces in each group. Each group for loading had the same length and width. In Group A, the loading was at 1/2 of the container height, in Group B, the loading was at 2/3 of the container height and in Group C the loading was 4/5 of the container height. The 3 groups were given high pressure steam sterilization, the sterilization temperature, sterilization time and drying time were the same, while biological and chemical monitoring was done. After sterilization, the three groups were compared in terms of the biological and chemical monitoring results as well as the incidence of wet pack. Results There were no significant differences between the 3 groups in the qualification rate of indicator cards and the biological monitoring after sterilization in the 5 kinds of packages among the 3 groups of rigid containers (P>0.05). The incidence of wet package in Group A was significantly lower than that of Group C (χ2=6.80, P=0.009<0.017), but no difference was found between Groups B and C ,Group B and C Group . Conclusions The loading density of different rigid containers affects the incidence of wet package of the orthopedic instruments. Our findings indicate that the loading of the instruments in a rigid container reaches the 2/3~4/5 height of the container, for it can reduce the incidence of wet package of orthopedic instruments.

Objective To evalute the effects of subcutaneous transfection of human beta-nerve growth factor (Ad-hNGFβ) gene on the function of sensory nerve in a rat model of diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP).Methods Healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 180-220 g,were used in this study.Ten rats were randomly collected as normal control without DNP (group C).DNP model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozocin (STZ) 75 mg/kg.Seventy-five rats with DNP were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =25 each):DNP group; Ad-hNGF group and Ad-LacZ group.Groups Ad-NGF and Ad-LacZ received subcutaneous transfection of 1.12 × 1011 PFU Ad-hNGFβ 10 ul and 1.12 × 1011 PFU Ad-LacZ 10 ul respectively after pain thresholds were measured on 21 days after STZ injection.The mechanical and thermal pain thresholds were measured before STZ injection (baseline) and at 21,35 and 49 days after STZ injection.The conduction velocity and latency of the sensory nerve and the expression of substance P (SP) in dorsal root ganglion (by immmuno-histpchemistry) were determined after measurement of pain threshold on 49 days after STZ injection.Results Compared with group C,the mechanical and thermal pain thresholds were significantly increased at each time point after STZ injection in groups DNP,Ad-NGF and Ad-Lacz,the conduction velocity of the sensory nerve was significantly decreased,the latency of the sensory nerve was prolonged,and the expression of SP in dorsal root ganglion was down-regulated in groups DNP and Ad-LacZ,the conduction velocity of the sensory nerve was significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05),and no significant change was found in the latency of the sensory nerve and expression of SP in dorsal root ganglion in group Ad-NGF (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with group DNP,the thermal pain threshold was significantly increased at 49 days after STZ injection,the conduction velocity of the sensory nerve was decreased,the latency of the sensory nerve was shortened,and the expression of SP in dorsal root ganglion was down-regulated (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01),while no significant change was found in the mechanical pain threshold in group Ad-NGF,and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group Ad-LacZ (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Subcutaneous transfection of Ad-hNGFβ can improve the function of sensory nerve in a rat model of DNP through up-regulat-ing of the SP expression in dorsal root ganglion.

Objective To investigate the effect of different doses of ioversol on renal function,and to explore early renal injury biomarkers on contrast induced kidney injury and safe ioversol dosage.Methods A total of 158 cases (98 males and 60 females) undergoing cerebral vascular intervention (CVI) in our department was selected with age ranging from 23 to 81 years old (average age 59.70 ± 12.02).Based on ioversol dosage in surgery,patients were divided into three groups:low dose group (≤ 150 ml,n =49),middle dose group (151-200 ml,n =74),and high dose group (＞200 ml,n =35).U-κ,U-λ,urinary transferrin (UTRF),urine microalbumin (UMA),urinary immunoglobulin IgG (UIgG),urine beta2-microglobulin (Uβ2-MG),Uα1-MG,urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (UNAG),plasma cystatin C (CysC) and Scr were detected by scattering turbidimetry,immune turbidimetry and fully automatic biochemical analysis pre-surgery 24 h and post-surgery 72 h.Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) was defined as laboratory increase of Scr value≥44.2 μmol/L or ≥25％ from baseline measurement at 48 hours after surgery.The relationship in ioversol dosage and various factors was assessed by Single and multiple factors binary logistic regression analysis.Results According to the criterion that Scr increase value were ≥44.2 μmol/L,of 158 cases,3 cases occurred CI-AKI,the AKI incidence was 1.90％.Based on the criterion that Scr increase value was ≥25％,33 cases occurred CI-AKI,the incidence was 20.89％.The concentration of U-κ,UTRF,Uα1-MG,UNAG and plasma CysC were significantly different in high dose group compared to low ioversol dose group (P ＜ 0.05),while the other biomarkers had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The contrast media-ioversol could lead to CI-AKI;when the dosage of ioversol was more than 200 ml one-time,the concentration of U-κ,UTRF,Uα1-MG,UNAG and plasma CysC increased significantly.U-κ,UTRF,Uα1-MG,UNAG and plasma CysC could predict the early renal injury in patients who undergoing CVI.The rise of U-κ,UTRF,Uα1-MG,UNAG and plasma CysC are related to the dosage of ioversol.Furthermore,possibility of kidney injury is significantly high when ioversol dosage is more than 200 ml one-time.

Objective To discuss the influence of motor imagery therapy on the recovery of the stroke patients with aphasia.Methods Sixty cases of stroke patients with aphasia were divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the odd and even of last number.The single number was set into the control group.The double number was given to the treatment group.There were thirty patients in each group.Both groups received the conventional drug treatment and routine care of the Department of Neurology.On this basis,from the second day in hospital,the treatment group received the speech rehabili tation training with motor imagery therapy.Aphasia assessment was done for the two groups on the first day in hospital with CRRCAE.On the first day and after receiving ten-day treatment with motor imagery therapy,the grade of the severity for aphasia of Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination (BDAE) was done to assess the severity of aphasia in two groups.The scores of the two groups were compared.Results Before the treatment,there was no significant difference between the two groups.After receiving ten times treatment,both the two groups were improved.Compared with the control group,the treatment group became better.There was statistically significant difference between the two groups.Conclusions For the stroke patients with aphasia,motor imagery therapy has significant effect on their recovery.

Objective To summarize the clinical features of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL) and the lesion of central neural system in children.Methods Data of the 4 cases in Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2009 to December 2014 were reviewed and analyzed,as well as other files of 12 patients from PubMed,CNKI,etc.Results All 4 patients mentioned above started from fever and lymphadenopathy,3 cases had headache,2 cases of them experienced altered mental status,and 1 case had cclampsia.The findings of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) test was similar to viral encephalitis;2 cases had normal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) result;1 case with MRI test indicated brain white matter diseases with extensive intracerebral hemorrhage,and 1 case had small range of encephalomalacia in left cerebral hemisphere and cerebral dura mater.Through CSF examination,2 cases were positive to Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen (EBV-VCA)-IgM,while the 2 other cases had no positive trace of EBV-VCA-IgM.Lymph node biopsy was in accordance with HNL typical changes,1 case was positive for Epstein-Barr virus encoded RNA (EBER).Twelve cases in previous literatures were diagnosed as HNL by lymph node biopsy,and their clinical features of central nervous system were headache and altered mental status.There was no change in pathogen.It is also found that the cases in which CSF was performed had shown being negative.CT/MRI image descriptions involved in temporosphenoid lobe,hippocampus,caudate lobe,leptomeninges,etc.Conclusions HNL can be complicated with lesions of the central nervous system,characterized by aseptic meningitis,encephalitis,etc.The prognosis of most cases is good,a few can have neurological sequelae.HNL may relapse,so long-term follow-up is ne-cessary.Epstein-Barr virus in HNL and lesion of central nervous system mechanism still needs further research.

Objective To establish the expression profiles of microRNA (miRNA) in SMMC-7721 and CCC-HEL-1 cell lines in order to provide new clues to study the mechanism of miRNA function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its treatment. Methods SMMC-7721 and CCC-HEL-1 cell lines were cultured in vitro. Total RNAs were extracted by TRIzol, followed by RNA quantification and quality control. The RNAs were used to detect the expression of miRNA in these two cell lines by miRNA array. The miRNA of interest was then verified by real-time PCR. Results In total,238 differentially expressed miRNAs were found, including 154 overexpressed and 84 underexpressed miRNAs. 64 miRNAs were upregulated more than 4 times and26 miRNAs were upregulated more than 10 times. 22 miRNAs were downregulated more than 4 times 10 miRNAs weredownregulated more than 5times, and 1 miRNA was downregulated more than 10 times. Real-time PCR validation suggested that has-miR-205 and has-let-7f in liver cancer increased by 2. 7 and 2. 3 times, respectively.Conclusion There are differences in the expression of miRNA between the SMMC-7721 and CCC-HEL-1 cell lines and the profiles of miRNA expression were established for both cell lines. It was found that has-miR-205 and has-let-7f were upregulated in liver cancer.

Objective: To summarize the clinical characteristics, virological and histopathological features, clinical outcome of Epstein-Barr virus-positive lymphoproliferative disease (EBV⁺LPD) in children. Methods: The clinical and follow-up data of 13 children histopathologically diagnosed as EBV⁺LPD in the Department of Infectious Disease of Beijing Children's Hospital between January 2011 and December 2016 were summarized. Results: Of the 13 patients, 5 were males and 8 females. The median age of disease onset was 6.0 years (range 1.3 to 15.0 years). The median duration between disease onset and diagnosis was 3 months (range 1 to 24 months). All the 13 patients had fever, 9 cases had hepatosplenomegaly and lymphoadenopathy, 4 cases had only lymphoadenopathy, 7 cases had reduced peripheral blood cells, 7 cases had lung involvement, 3 cases had central nervous system involvement, 3 cases had cardiac involvement, 3 cases had intestinal involvement, 2 cases had skin involvement and 1 case had abdominal mass. All the 13 patients underwent whole blood EBV-DNA PCR examination and the copies ranged from 1×10⁸/L to 1×10¹¹/L. Pathology of lymph node confirmed 6 cases, skin pathology confirmed 2 cases, lung pathology, ileum mucosa pathology, liver pathology, abdominal mass pathology and bone marrow pathology confirmed 1 case each. Among 13 patients, 9 cases presented with EBV-positive T cell lymphoproliferative disease(EBV⁺ T-LPD), 2 cases with hydroa vacciniforme (HV) and 2 cases with EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (EBV⁺ DLBCL) . All the patients were followed up for 2 days to 65 months after discharge. Among 9 cases of EBV⁺T-LPD, 1 case died in a short time, 1 case died after evolved to T-cell lymphoma, 2 cases recovered after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, 1 case recovered after the chemotherapy of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH) 2004 protocol and 4 cases were stable now. Of 2 cases of HV patients, 1 case died after evolved to HV like lymphoma and the other still have symptoms. Among 2 cases of EBV⁺ DLBCL, 1 case died shortly after discharge and the other was still stable after chemotherapy. Conclusions Chronic recurrent fever, lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly are the most common clinical manifestations in children with EBV⁺LPD. Involvement of lung, central nervous system, intestinal tract, skin and other organs are also involved frequently. For children with chronic fever of unknown cause and accompanied by lymphadenopathy and (or) hepatosplenomegaly, EBV ⁺ LPD should be considered highly when the whole blood EBV-DNA load continues to increase significantly, early biopsy of the proliferative lesion should be performed to make a definite diagnosis. The prognosis of EBV ⁺ LPD is poor, and some evolve to lymphoma, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective way to treat this disease.
