To explore the therapeutic effects and toxic side-effect of 131I-McAb (S102, T9, CL-3) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). 131I-McAb, which was labelled by IODO-GEN method, with 50-70mCi of 131I, was percutaneously injected into the tumor under B-ultrasonic guidance in 116 patients. The results showed that the effective rate (CR+PR) was 29.3% (34/116), the overall effective rate (CR+PR+MR) was 53.4% (62/116), the one-year survival rate was 38.2% (39/102), the mean survival time was 34.7 weeks, and the mean tumor developing phase was 12 weeks. The results suggested that the use of 131I-McAb in the treatment of HCC is a low toxic, effective and minimal invasive operation.

Objective To develop a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) detection method for quantification of the nonpolar amino acids in amniotic fluid of congenital malformation including alanine (Ala),leu cine (Leu),isoleucine (Ile),proline (Pro) and phenylalanine (Phe).To compare the different amino acids in amniotic fluid between pregnant women with congenital malformation and normal control and analyze the corresponding pathogenesis.Methods After precipitated protein of the 100 μL supernatant of amniotic fluid by methyl alcohol,the supernatant was dried by nitrogen.The extractions were treated with MSTFA for derivatization.Then gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to detect and analyze the amino acids.Results This method was proved to have good sensitivity,precision,accuracy and recoveries.Under the optimum testing conditions,the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.12-0.38 mg/L.The calibration curves showed good linearity over the investigated concentration range between 0.5 and 10 mg/L.The recoveries were 91.12% to 104.41%.The relative standard deviation of intra and inter-day was 0.84% to 9.33%.The developed method was applied to the quantification of 5 nonpolar amino acids in amniotic fluid of 17 pregnant women with congenital malformation and 13 normal control pregnant woman.The contents of leucine and isoleucine decreased in disease group compared to controls.The difference of the other three amino acids between the two groups had no statistical significance.Conclusions The validation results showed that the method was suitable for detection of the amino acids in amniotic fluid and having broad prospect of clinical application.Leucine may participate in the pathogenesis of congenital malformation.

Objective:To investigate whether diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) affect the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) of Bifidobacterium infantis ( BB ) .Methods: We used simple anaerobic activated ways to culture BB .After the bacterium reached platform growth period ,two concentrations (200 and 1 000 μmol/L) of DDC were added to bacterium medium for a specific period of time (0.5,1,2,4 and 24 h),which was in order to determine if this inhibitor affected the activity of SOD .As a positive control,the in-hibitory effect of DDC on the activity of SOD in murine intestinal samples was also checked .Results:It was found that incubation of BB with DDC for some specific periods showed no effect on the activity of SOD .However , the activity of SOD in intestine reduced dramatically after the mice were given DDC in vivo .Conclusion:DDC affect the SOD activity in mice ,while it showed no effect on SOD activity of BB.The suitable inhibitor for SOD of BB is not commercially available and further research is warranted .

Objective To investigate the values of conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),magnetic resonance angiography (MRA),and high-resolution MRI for diagnosing intracranial arterial dissection (IAD)caused ischemic stroke. Methods From August 2008 to April 2015,59 consecu-tive patients (age 45 ±15years,41males)with IAD caused ischemic stroke admitted to the First Affiliated Hos-pital of Sun Yat-Sen University were enrolled prospectively. All patients underwent conventional cranial MRI/MRA examination,25 of them underwent whole brain DSA examination,and 10 underwent high-resolution MRI. The findings of conventional MRI/ MRA and high-resolution MRI of IAD were analyzed. For patients undergoing DSA,the proportions of detection and compliance of IAD were compared between DSA and conventional MRI / MRA. Results (1)Conventional MRI / MRA revealed typical sign of artery dissection in 42 patients (71. 2%),among them,the intramural hematoma (n = 22,52. 4%)was most common. Other common signs included intimal flap/ double lumen sign (n = 13,31. 0%)and long irregular or thread-like stenosis (n = 9,21. 4%);while dissecting aneurysm (n = 7,16. 7%)and rat tail-shaped occlusion (n = 3, 7. 1%)were relatively rare. In 17 patients (28. 8%)with IAD that conventional MRI/ MRA did not detect the typical dissection sign,the dissections were involved in the middle cerebral artery (11 / 17,64. 7%), they were more common than the 42 patients with IAD (10 / 42,23. 8%)detected the typical dissection sign by conventional MRI/ MRA. There was significant difference (P = 0. 006). (2)Among the 25 patients undergoing DSA,DSA revealed that 15 patients (60%)had the typical dissection sign,and conventional MRI/ MRA only revealed 8 of them (32%)with the typical dissection sign,but there was no significant difference (P = 0. 088). In 15 patients with IAD that DSA detected the typical dissection sign;conventional MRI / MRA detected the typical dissection sign in 8 of them. The diagnostic coincidence rate was 8 / 15. (3)Both conventional MRI/ MRA and DSA revealed non-specific limitation stenosis or cut-off occlusion in 10 patients (16. 9%)with IAD,while the high-resolution MRI revealed intimal flap in 5 of them,intramural hematoma in 4,and intimal flap and intramural hematoma in 1. Conclusion Conventional cranial MRI/MRA is an effective technique for revealing IAD,whereas high-resolution MRI has the unique advantages for diagnosing IAD without typical dissection in other vascular imaging.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum interleukin-8 (IL-8 )and immunoglobulin/complement 3A (IgA/C3)and immune imbalance in Henoch-Schonlein Purpura(HSP)in children,and provide evidence and guidance for clinical therapy of HSP.Methods Serum IL-8 was measured by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),and IgA and C3 were de-tected by automatic biochemistry analyzer,and calculate the ratio of IgA/C3.Results Serum IL-8 levels were (389±5 1.68)ng/L, significantly higher than that in healthy children (P < 0.05 ).Serum IgA levels were(306.2 ± 32.21 )mg/L,significantly higher (P <0.05).Serum C3 levels were (1 14.5 ±20.7)mg/L,of no statistical difference.IgA/C3 were (3.041 ±0.508 5),significantly higher(P <0.05).There was a positive correlation between IL-8 and IgA/C3 (r =0.534,P <0.05 ).Conclusion The children of HSP has cytokine and immunoglobulin disturbance,and presents a hyperreactivity in both humoral immunity and cellular immunity. Positive correlation between IL-8 and IgA/C3 was observed.
