OBJECTIVETo investigate the level of the serum IL-23 and its correlation with serum biochemical indices of liver function tests and HBV DNA load in patients with chronic severe hepatitis B.
METHODSFifty patients with chronic severe hepatitis B (severe hepatitis group) and 18 healthy controls (control group) were enrolled in the study. The serum IL-23 expression level was detected by ELISA method. The correlation between IL-23 and ALT, AST, TBil, HBV DNA load was analyzed using Pearson's correlation analysis, respectively.
RESULTSSerum IL-23 expression level in severe hepatitis group was significantly higher than that of control group (P < 0.05). Serum IL-23 level was positively correlated with serum ALT, AST, respectively (P < 0.05), but was not correlated with TBil and HBV DNA load, respectively (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSerum IL-23 expression level was increased in patients with chronic severe hepatitis B and was associated with the severe of inflammation. We, therefore, believe that IL-23 might be involved in the pathogenesis of chronic severe hepatitis B.

OBJECTIVETo study the association of human epidermal growth factor receptor family molecules expression in gastric cancer tissues with the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.
METHODSClinical data of 161 patients with gastric cancer undergoing gastrectomy in Jiangsu Cancer Hospital between January 2006 and January 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. The expression of HER1, HER2, HER3 and HER4 was detected by immunohistochemistry. Association of the expression of HER family with the prognosis of patients was examined. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival.
RESULTSHigh expression rates of HER1, HER2, HER3 and HER4 were 46.0% (74/161), 10.6% (17/161),55.9% (90/161) and 68.3% (110/161) respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that high expression of HER3 was associated with tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, stage, neurovascular invasion, and overall 4-year survival. High expression of HER4 was associated with tumor distant metastasis and stage. High co-expression of HER2 and HER3 was associated with overall 4-year survival (P=0.023). Multivariate analysis revealed that high expression of HER3 and stage were prognostic independent factors.
CONCLUSIONUp-regulated expression of HER3 is associated with the poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the levels of HBsAg in predicting the efficacy of peglated interferon-alpha 2a combined with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV), in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients.
METHODSThis trial enrolled 62 HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients with detectable HBsAg for at least 6 months prior to screening, serum HBV DNA levels of at least 100 000 IU/ml. The efficacy assessment: viral suppression below 100 IU/ml. The patients with HBV DNA < or = 100 IU/ml after 24 weeks therapy were divided into group A, in which monotherapy continued; While the rest were divided into group B, in which ADV was combined until week 48. In group B, at the end-of-treatment, the patients with HBV DNA < or = 100 IU/ml were divided into group B1, the rest were divided into group B2.
RESULTSThere was no significant difference on the baseline characteristics of patients between B1 and B2. There was significant difference on the levels of HBsAg at 12-week and 24-week between B1 and B2; while there was no significant difference on the levels of HBeAg.
CONCLUSIONSThe levels of HBsAg at 12-week and 24-week would be predictors to evaluate the efficacy of combined therapy in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients.

Objective To evaluate the effects of GLYX-13 on cognitive function after long-time isoflurane anesthesia in mice. Methods A total of 192 healthy male C57∕B6J mice, aged 8 weeks, weig-hing 22-25 g, were divided into 4 groups(n=48 each)using a random number table: control group (group C), isoflurane anesthesia group(group I), GLYX-13 group(group G), and isoflurane anesthesia plus GLYX-13 group(group IG). The animals were exposed to 15% isoflurane for 6 h in I and IG groups. GLYX-13 1 mg∕kg was injected via the caudal vein at 2 h before anesthesia in G and IG groups. Novel ob-ject recognition test and contextual fear conditioning test were performed on 1st, 3rd and 7th days after an-esthesia. The expression of 2B subunits-containing NMDA receptor(NR2B)and cyclic adenosine mono-phosphate response element-binding protein(CREB)mRNA in the hippocampus was detected by quantita-tive real-time polymerase chain reaction after the end of behavioral tests on 1st, 3rd and 7th days after anes-thesia. Results Compared with group C, the percentage of time spent in exploring a novel object, dis-crimination index and percentage of freezing time were significantly decreased, and the expression of NR2B and CREB mRNA in the hippocampus was down-regulated in group I(P <005). Compared with group I, the percentage of time spent in exploring a novel object, discrimination index and percentage of freezing time were significantly increased, and the expression of NR2B and CREB mRNA in the hippocampus was up-regulated in group IG(P <005). Conclusion GLYX-13 can significantly improve the cognitive func-tion after long-time isoflurane anesthesia in mice.

Objective:To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine combined with parecoxib sodium on multimode analgesia during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and its effect on cognitive function.Methods:One hundred and eighty-eight patients who underwent TKA from January 2017 to December 2019 in People′s Hospital of Xuyi County were divided into the multimode analgesia (MA) group and the postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) group by the method of random number table, each group with 94 patients. Patients in the MA group were injected with parecoxib sodium and dexmedetomidine hydrochloride half an hour before anesthesia induction and PCIA after the operation, while PCIA was only given after the operation in the PCIA group. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and sedation Ramsay scores were performed at the time of entry into the operation room (T 0), 12 h (T 1), 24 h (T 2) and 48 h (T 3) postoperatively; simple mental state scale (MMSE) score, serum S-100β, and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) levels were measured at 24 h before the operation (T 01), T 2, and 72 h after the operation (T 4). The incidence of adverse reactions within 48 h after surgery and postoperatively cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in the two groups within 72 h after surgery were recorded and compared. Results:The VAS scores and sufentanil dosage at T 1, T 2 and T 3 in the MA group were significantly lower than those in the PCIA group ( P<0.05), and Ramsay scores were significantly higher than those in the PCIA group ( P<0.05). The total incidence of adverse reactions and POCD in the MA group were significantly lower than that in the PCIA group: 5.32% (5/94) vs. 20.21%(19/94), 8.51%(8/94) vs. 27.66%(26/94), there were significant differences ( P<0.05). At T 2 and T 4, the MMSE scores in the MA group were significantly higher than that in the PCIA group: (26.42 ± 1.68) scores vs. (25.30 ± 1.74) scores, (27.06 ± 1.93) scores vs. (26.49 ± 1.87) scores; the S-100β level in the MA group were significantly lower than that in the PCIA group: (1.35 ± 0.17) μg/L vs. (1.43 ± 0.19) μg/L, (1.26 ± 0.13) μg/L vs. (1.40 ± 0.16) μg/L; the NSE level in the MA group were significantly lower than that in the PCIA group: (0.88 ± 0.05) μg/L vs. (0.94 ± 0.06) μg/L, (0.83 ± 0.06) μg/L vs. (0.91 ± 0.04) μg/L, there were significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Dexmedetomidine combined with parecoxib sodium multimode analgesia has clear analgesia effect after TKA, can significantly reduce the occurrence of POCD and has high safety.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the stimulated effect of liver regeneration on colon cancer cells in remnant liver in rats.
METHODSRat models with liver metastases or retro-peritoneal metastases of colon cancer were established: animals underwent 37% or 70% liver resection and were compared with a sham laparotomy (15, 25, 15 cases, respectively). Metastases were performed two weeks before resection. Rats were killed 3 weeks after the resection. Total body weight, liver and tumor weights were recorded. The human colon adenocarcinoma cell line Lovo was cultured in the presence of portal serum withdrawn 24 hours and 14 days after partial hepatectomy (PH). DNA synthesis was assessed by flow cytometry analysis for 5-Bromodeoxyuridine (5-BrdU) incorporation.
RESULTSThe tumor growth was accelerated in the remnant liver in 70% PH group, but the tumors in 37% PH group and retro-peritoneal site were not influenced by PH. Compared with the control group, after cultured 72 hours with portal serum withdrawn 24 h after PH, a higher 5-BrdU incorporation was found in the Lovo cell lines (P < 0.05), and it reached the peak after 120 hours of culture (P < 0.05). No difference was found between the groups when cultured with the portal serum withdrawn 14 d after PH (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSPH may accelerate the growth of residual microscopic tumor in the liver which contributes to local recurrence. It has no systemic effect and effects on the cancer cell lines in extrahepatic sites. The excision extension is related to the stimulating effects on the cancer cell line, and subtotal hepatectomy is presumably a major determinant.
