Background and purpose:This study aimed to investigate the effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on proliferation, secretion of calcitonin and energy metabolism of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) cell.Methods:The MTC cell line (TT) was culturedin vitro. After treatment with exenatide and liraglutide (0, 1, 10 and 100 nmol/L) for 24, 48 and 72 h, the proliferation of TT was analyzed by CCK-8 kit, the calcitonin was measured by calcitonin assay kits, and the energy metabolism of TT was measured by Seahorse XF instrument.Results:When compared with control group, neither exenatide nor liraglutide had effects on proliferation of TT (P>0.05); the calcitonin levels did not change signiifcantly after treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists (P>0.05). Exenatide and liraglutide did not alter glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration in TT cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner.Conclusion:GLP-1 receptor agonists have no effect on the development of TT. Further collection of the safety data of exenatide and liraglutide on thyroid is still needed.

Objective To observe the clinical results of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) combined with endoscopic Oddi sphincterotomy(EST) in treating cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis.Methods The preoperative and postoperative clinical data of 20 cases that received LC & EST combined therapy for cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis were analyzed retrospectively.Results The success rate was 95.0% ,with all the calculi removed completely;no complications occurred.The average hositpal stay was 7.5 days.Conclusions Combined LC & EST procedure is a safe and effective method to treat patients suffering from cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis.

ObjectiveTo observe changes of calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) and aetylcholinesterase (AChE) in motor endplate (MEP) after complete spinal cord injury (SCI) in the rat.MethodsSCI model of Wistar rats were established by transecting T10 spinal cord completely. The venters of the tibial anterior muscle were taken at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively to carry out the experiment.The changes of CGRP and AChE in the MEP were investigated with immunohistochemical test.ResultsAfter complete SCI, the quantity and distribution of CGRP decreased in MEP of 1-week sample, and the changes of AChE were observed until 4-week sample, and although the staining was light and sparse, CGRP and AChE existed in MEP during 2 months postoperatively.ConclusionThere is degeneration of MEP in skeletal muscle after upper motor neuron injury; CGRP and AChE are related to the degeneration of MEP; CGRP test can show the changes of MEP earlier.

Objective To describe the status quo of position rotation in self-injection of insulin, and explore its influencing factors, so as to provide the basis for regulating the rotation of injection. Methods A convenient sample of 176 patients coming from endocrinology in a third grade first-class hospital were surveyed by self-designed self-injection of insulin in patients with site rotation behavior questionnaire survey. Results 176 diabetics of their own insulin injection site rotation score was 12-27 (17.79 ± 2.81) points. The age, knowledge sources, the numbers of injection sites were mainly influence to insulin injection site rotation factor score. Conclusions Diabetics insulin injection site rotation behaviors is not standard, rotation of different parts is worrying. It is necessary to strengthen the education and guidance of the site rotation of the patients.

Objective To analyze effect of balloon embolization therapy for traumatic carotid cavernous fistula (TCCF),so as to provide references for treatment of this disease.Methods A total of 21 patients with TCCF managed with balloon embolization from April 2006 to March 2012 were collected in the study.There were 17 males aged (32.3 ±5.4) years and 4 females aged (40.6 ±5.8)years.Perioperative clinical presentations and imageologic changes were observed as well as operative outcome was evaluated.Results After 3 months of follow-up,20 patients experienced successful detachable balloon embolization,but the other one patient had to have stent angioplasty due to the failure of the procedure.All patients had some improvements on clinical presentations after operation (P ＜ 0.05).Imageologic examination revealed that all patients had complete occlusion of TCCF following operation.In follow-up,one patient had a relapse,with total curative ratio of 95％.Conclusions Detachable balloon embolization is effective in treatment of TCCF.Presently,the technique is an optimal method for such kind of disease and is worthy of wide clinical use.

Objective:To study the anti-inflammatory effect of immune milk. Method:Twenty four strains of pathogenic bacteria (including 12 strains of pathogenic E.coli, 8 strains of Salmonella, 3 strains of Shigella and 1 strain of Yersinia enterocolitica) originated from human intestinal tract were selected as antigens, and dairy cows were immunized. Results:Vaccination could not increase the concentration of IgG in the immune milk, but significantly highten the specificity of milk antibodies. The antibody titers against 24 pathogenic bacteria in immune milk was 128, 64 folds of control regular milk. Conclusion:Feeding of immune milk could inhibit edema of rat footpad induced by carrageenin and formaldehyde and the formation of acestoma of mice caused by cotton embedded hypophloedally. Meanwhile, the PGE2 level in inflammatory footpad of rat fed with immune milk was remarkably lower than that of rat fed with regular milk. These results indicate that immune milk has anti-inflammatory property.

Objective To apply EP7‐A2 document for evaluating the interference of hemolysis the total bilirubin detection in clinic .Methods The interferent was affirmed according to thepaired‐differencetest required by the EP7‐A2 document .The rela‐tion between interferent concentration and interference degree was analyzed by using the dose‐effect test .Results The paired‐difference test results showed that 5 .00 g/L hemoglobin had negative interference effect on two kinds of total bilirubin reagents . But the reagent kit A had little interference degree of hemolysis;The dose‐effect test results showed that hemoglobin produced the linear negative interference effect on the reagent kit A of total bilirubin detection .The linear equation of low value sample was Y=-0 .146X+14 .1 ,r=0 .964 ,which of middle value sample was Y = -0 .546X+92 .24 ,r=0 .947 and which of high value sample was Y= -1 .153X+307 .2 ,r=0 .979 .Conclusion Hemolysis has a negative interference effect on total bilirubin detection in clinic . The total bilirubin value could be corrected by using the hemoglobin concentration of sample;the EP7‐A2 document has certain ap‐plication value in the aspect of analyzing interference and evaluation .

Objective To explore the treatment effect of potato homogenate on the treatment of drug extravasation during intravenous injection.Methods 320 cases of drug extravasation patients during the intravenous infusion were randomly divided into the potato homogenategroup,named group A; patato slice group named group B and magnesium sulfate group as group C.The group A,B and C were separately treated with the external application of potato homogenate,thin slice of fresh potato and 33％ magnesium sulfate.The therapeutic effects of the 3 groups were compared.Results The therapeutic effect of group A was superior to that of group B and C,and the healing time in group A was much shorter than that in group B and C,and group B was batter than group C,there was significant difference between the above comparison groups.Conclusions The therapeutic effect of external application of fresh potato in the treatment of extravasation injury caused by the drugs is remarkable.Potato homogenate can improve the treatment effect and shorten healing time when compared with potato slice.

Objective To investigate the application of Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury (ASIA) in China.MethodsThe articles were retrieved in CNKI website (www.cnki.net),full-text Chinese journal database using the following parameters:searching words:"spinal cord injury" and "ASIA",publication time:1979-2006.Results164 articles were harvested,and 140 relevant papers of them were selected for analysis.ConclusionASIA Classification is widely used in China(Mainland).Constructive suggestions for the modification of this Classification were accumulated,while delayed use and misuse of it were found in some studies.
