Due to practical and ethical concerns associated with human experiments, animal models have been essential in cancer research.Vast resources are expended during the development of new cancer therapeutics, and selection of optimal in vivo models should improve this process.Genetically engineered mouse models ( GEMM) of cancer have progressively improved in technical sophistication and, accurately recapitulating the human cognate condition, have provided opportunities to accelerate the development of cancer drugs.In this article we consider the different types of animal models used for predicting the results of clinical trials of cancer drugs, and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each in this regard.In addition, the methods of predicting in vivo models and clinical translation are discussed.

Objective To study and design a new algorithm of QT interval measurement based on multi-scale morphological derivative transform(MMDT) according to the demands of mobile monitoring platform.Methods After the MMDT of ECG signals by inducing a triangle and a short line as a pair of structure elements,they were classified into four types by their morphological characteristics and the optimal strategy for each type was described to detect the onset of Q-wave.By introducing the "wing" function,two referenced points of T peak were picked out,which was helpful to locate the peak and offset of T wave,and improve the precision and recognition rate of MMDT method when detecting the bifid T wave(90.9%)and biphasic T wave(86.7%).Results Eighty data records from CSE database were used to evaluate the availability.By contrast with the wavelet transform method,the statistical results showed that the proposed algorithm had generally less error and smaller standard deviation especially for abnormal-phase T wave.Conclusion Compared with those algorithms based on wavelet transform and self-adaptive threshold techniques,our algorithm needs less empirical parameters and calculation.It is also suitable for mobile monitoring and HOLTER system,and has a wide prospect of application.

Objective To investigate the causes and prevention of hemorrhage and recurrent laryngeal nerve injury during the endoscopic thyroidectomy via the breast areola approach.Methods Totally 36 patients underwent endoscopic thyroidectomy via the breast areola approach from January 2006 to January 2008.Results All the procedures were completed under an endoscope with a mean operation time of 105 min(50 to 180 min),and mean blood loss of 30 ml(20 to 150 ml).None of the patients were converted to an open surgery.One patient developed fat liquefaction,and one showed subcutaneous emphysema,no patient had injuries to any of the nerves or the parathyroid glands.The drainage tube was removed in 24 to 72 months after the surgery.The patients were discharged from the hospital 3 to 7 days postoperation.Postoperative pathological examination showed thyroid adenoma in 7 cases and thyroid nodular goiter in 29.The 36 patients were followed up for 3 to 24 months with a mean of 12 months.During the period,3 patients complained of chest symptoms and were cured spontaneously in 3 to 7 months.All the patients were satisfied with the aesthetic outcomes,none of them had local recurrence of the tumor.Conclusions Endoscopic thyroidectomy via the breasts areola approach is feasible and effective with good short-term and aesthetic outcomes.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for nosocomial infections and analyze pathogens drug resistance in patients with craniocerebral injury so as to provide scientific basis for clinical precaution and treatment.Methods A retrospective survey was conducted to collect the clinical data of 480 patients with craniocerebral injury including the gender,age and therapeutic process of patients by medical history,for analyzing the related factors causing nosocomial infections via SPSS 18.0 software.Then,the results of bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test were recognized to analyze drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria.Results The nosocomial infections occurred in 100 of 480 patients with craniocerebral injury,with an infection rate of 20.83%.The univariate analysis indicated that the risk of nosocomial infections was associated with age,tracheal tube,deep vein catheterization,the length of tracheotomy,the length of hospital stay,diabetic mellitus and hemoglobin ≤110 g·L-1 (P<0.05).Totally 191 strains of pathogens have been isolated,including 118 (61.8%) strains of gram-negative bacteria,46 (24.1%) strains of gram-positive bacteria and 27 (14.1%) strains of fungi.The Acinetobacter baumannii,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Escherichia coli were dominant among the gram-negative bacteria,and the drug resistance rates of them to cefazolin and cefotaxime were high;The Staphylococcus aureus,Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus were the major species of the gram-positive bacteria,which were insensitive to penicillin and clindamycin;the Candida albicans was the major species of the fungi.Conclusion The incidence of nosocomial infections is high in the patients with craniocerebral injury,which is accociated with many risk factors.Therefore,it is necessary to strengthen the control of the risk factors so as to effectively reduce the incidence of nosocomial infections.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate plus nimodipine in treating transient cerebral ischemic attack.Methods A total of 159 outpatients and inpatients with transient cerebral ischemic attack in the neurosurgery department and the neurology outpatient department of our hospital from January 1,2012 to September 1,2016 were divided into 3 groups.The group A(43 cases) orally took clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate plus aspirin;the group B (51 cases) treated with oral clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate plus nimodipine;the group C(65 cases) was treated with clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate plus nimotop.The curative effects were observed in 3 groups.The differences of PT.APTT,FIB and PLT in 3 groups were compared between before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate of the group A and C was significantly better than that of the group B(P<0.05),the curative effect had no statistical difference between the group A and C (P>0.05);the effect of the group B and group C on coagulation was superior to that of the group A(P<0.05).The three group had no severe bleeding events(cerebral bleeding,etc.),the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate combined with nimotop can significantly reduce the frequency of transient cerebral ischemic attack,has little influence on the coagulation indicators,and is safe and effective.

Objective To study the inhibition of anti-PDGF on proliferation of cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells(hRPE) in vitro.Methods hRPE were cultivated and were exposed to different concentrations of anti-PDGF(0,1?10-6,5?10-6,1?10-5,5?10-5 and 1?10-4 mg?L-1) respectively .Growth curves were measured with cell counting and the vitalities of cells were examined by percentage of vital cells and total cells.Using MTT staining colorimetric to measure the inhibitory rate.The changes of cell cycle of hRPE were collected and their growth were detected with FCM analysis and the morphological changes of cells were observed by light microscope and electron microscope.Results Anti-PDGF of 1?10-6mg?L-1 stimulated hRPE proliferation slightly.AntiPDGF at dosages ranging from 5?10-6mg?L-1 to 1?10-4mg?L-1 inhibited cell proliferation effectively in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner(P

Objective To investigate the relationship between the calcium ion and the effects of ECA on the contraction of the smooth muscles of Oncomelania foot, and explore the mechanism of ECA in decreasing the snail climbing adhesion and increasing snail-killing. Method The in vitro experiment was used to observe the effects of ECA on contraction activities of foot smooth muscles of Oncomelania. Results ECA 5. 0, 10. 0, 20. 0 mg/L. enhanced the resting tension, decreased the contraction range and increased the contraction frequency of the foot smooth muscles of Oncomelania in Ringer's solution with or without Ca2+ , with a characteristic of the dose-dependent, but stronger in solution with Ca2+ than that in solution without Ca2+. Conclusions ECA can enhance the resting tension, decrease the contraction range and increase the contraction frequency of the foot smooth muscles of Oncomelania. This suggested that ECA could be related to increasing the intracellular Ca2+ release and influx of the extracellular Ca2+. This could provide an explanation why ECA decreases the rate of Oncomelania climbing adhesion and enhances snail-killing.
