Chinese Journal of Bases and Clinics in General Surgery 2004;0(01):-
Objective To explore the effect of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) on apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells induced with curcumin. Methods MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of curcumin to colorectal cancer cells. Flow cytometry was used to detect the anti-apoptosis effect of HGF. Results Flow cytometry showed only 64 ?g/ml curcumin could play the proliferation-inhibiting role in Caco-2 cells leading to their apoptosis; at the same time, different concentrations of HGF could antagonize this inhibitory effect resulting in the decrease of apoptosis, but HGF worked without a concentration-dependent manner. The study on MAPK pathway showed that the protective effect of HGF on the apoptosis of Caco-2 cells was not influenced by inhibiting p42/p44 MAPK and p38 MAPK pathway. Conclusion HGF/SF antagonizes the apoptosis of Caco-2 cells induced with curcumin, but MAPK signaling pathway might not participate in this process.

Chinese Journal of Medical Library and Information Science 2017;26(8):13-16
A database model of ontology was established by mining the EMR-covered data according to the con-cept of fuzzy vector space model with Kawasaki disease as an example. The evidence and model for the diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease were detected fromthe EMR of Kawasaki disease in the database model of ontolo-gy in order to help the clinicians to make its differential diagnosis and improve its treatment plan, thus achieving the effective EMR data mining and promoting the computer-aided clinical decision-making.

As the economic reformation goes on, the traditional culture and ethics anr chanllenged. Should we carry on the spirit of Betheune? The hospital, cultural development focuses on how to carry forward the spirit of Betheune. Acording to his experience, the author explained his view and put several points that we should notice in new situation. 1. Emancipate the mind and change the view; 2. Advocate the unselfish contribution combined with the policy of contribution considering oneself; 3. Requine the level of conbined with regulatiton.

In order to investigate the dynamic changes in nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity in organs during traumatic shock and to evaluate the effects of inhibitor of NOS and L Arginine (L Arg) on traumatic shock, rat model of traumatic shock was established, and the constitutive NOS and inducible NOS in the heart, small intestine, liver, lung , spleen were measured 0 5h, 3h, 5h after traumatic shock. Followed by intravenous injection with aminoguanidine (AG ), N G nitro L arginine methyl ester (L NAME), or L Arg, NOS were again measured, and the survival time and 24h survival rate were recorded. It was found that in normal rats cNOS was expressed in all organs, but only a weak iNOS expression in lung and liver. Half an hour after shock, cNOS was elevated in almost all organs in various degrees but there was no change in iNOS. 3h after shock, an increase in iNOS activity and a decrease in cNOS were observed. The iNOS was synthesized in large quantity 5h after shock. AG and L Arg markedly prolonged the survival time but L NAME did not in shock rats. AG inhibited the activity of iNOS but promoted the synthesis of cNOS, and both NOS were inhibited in L NAME group, but not in L Arg group. The results that iNOS was synthesized in large quantity only at later period of traumatic shock. To treat shock, the inhibitors of NOS and L Arg should be given according to the degree of shock, the dosage of drugs, and the time of administration

Objective To study the function of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor(HGF/SF) in the (proliferation) of colorectal cancer cells.Methods The expression of c-met,the receptor of HGF,was(detected) in Caco-2 and Colo320 cell lines by Western blot.The activation of p42/p44MAPK and p38MAPK induced by HGF in these two cell lines was observed.Observation of the effect of the inhibitor of p42/p44MAPK(PD98059),p38MAPK(SB203580) on the inhibition of HGF-induced proliferation of Caco-2 and Colo320 cells were made by Using -TdR,MTT assay.Results(1)Both cell lines(expressed) the c-met.(2)HGF activated p42/p44MAPK and p38MAPK,and 20ng/ml HGF treated cells showed maximum activity in both to be within 10min.(p42/p44MAPK,2.28?0.01;p38MAPK,2.25?0.01).(3)HGF was found to significantly increase thymidine incorporation(P

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on hypermelanosis and provide experimental evidence for treating skin pigmentary disorders. Methods Five TCMs with strong inhibitory effects on tyrosinase activity were tested. The changes of the number and morphology of melanocytes induced by UVB were observed in the experimental hypermelanosis model (brownish guinea pig). Results Decreased melanocytes and melanin granules were found with the treatment of Poria cocos, Polyporus umbellatus, Cornus officinalis Sieb. et Zucc., Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz., Astoagalus complanatus R. Br. ex Bge. Conclusion There are inhibitory effects on hypermelanosis induced by UVB with the treatment of Poria cocs, Polyporus umbellatus, Cornus officinalis Sieb.et Zucc., Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz., Astoagalus complanatus R.

To explore the effects of psychological behavior training on the physical stress level of submariners, 42 submariners were divided into two groups, namely experimental group and control group. The submariners in the former group received psychological behavior training for one week. The level of physical stress was determined after being asked to creep through water-filled torpedo launching tube before and after training. The results showed that the changes in physical stress level of subjects in the experimental group were significantly smaller than that of the control group(t=-3.421~-2.415, P

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of loop ileostomy and Hartmann operation in gerontal patients with obstructive carcinoma of sigmoid and high rectum. Methods sixty-two gerontal patients with obstructive carcinoma of sigmoid and high rectum from April 2008 to April 2013 were randomly divided into loop ileostomy group and Hartmann group.The operation time , length of stay and postoperative complications in the two groups were analyzed. Results The time of absolute diet in loop ileostomy group was shorter than that in Hartmann group in Stage I operation (P < 0.05). The time of operation, absolute diet, and length of stay in loop ileostomy group were shorter than that in Hartmann group in Stage II operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion The application of loop iloostomy in gerontal patients with obstructive carcinoma of sigmoid and high rectum was safe and effective.

Objective To investigate the security and effect of endovascular stents placement in treating atherosclerotic stenosis of the iliac arteries.Methods 15 cases with iliac arterial stenosis caused by atherosclerosis were treated by a big amount of thrombolysis in combination with iliac arterial stent placement.The length of lesions was from 4.3 cm to 9.5 cm(mean of 6.7 cm),the claudicant distance was from 100 m to 300 m(mean of 185 m).Clinical follow-up included CT angiography,color Doppler sonography and clinical evaluation with the ankle-brachial index(ABI).Results Eighteen stents were placed in 18 limbs of 15 patients.The technical successful rate was 100%.The clinical symptoms(claudication or the rest pain)were improved,and ABI increased from 0.25?0.18 to 0.85?0.15 after stent implantation in all cases.All the patients were followed up for 3~47 months,one patient was death during the follow-up periods because of brain stem ischemic stroke.All patients maintained uninterrupted stent patency until the final follow-up.Conclusion Iliac arterial stent placement is a safe treatment with favorable long term patency for treating arterial stenosis caused by atherosclerosis.
