Objective To investigate the construction and implementation of the concept of precise sequential therapy for primary liver cancer.Methods The clinical data of 207 patients with resectable liver cancer who were admitted to the Air Force General Hospital from May 2005 to June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.Of all the patients,81 received conventional therapy (conventional therapy group),and the other 126 patients received precise sequential therapy (precise sequential therapy group).The conditions of the patients in perioperative phase,during postoperative sequential treatment and the period of follow-up between the 2 groups were compared.All data were analyzed by using the covariance analysis,analysis of variance,chi-square test or rank sum test.Results The detection rates of lesions with a diameter less than 1 cm,operation time,liver resection volume,intraoperative blood loss,rate of perioperative blood transfusion,duration of postoperative hospital stay,incidences of postoperative complications were 81％ (22/27),( 186 ± 36) minutes,(75 ± 29) ml,( 189 ± 60) ml,24％(30/126),(21 ± 12)days and 13％ (17/126) in the precise sequential therapy group,and 18％ (2/11),(222 ± 30)minutes,(133 ±88)ml,(327 ±46)ml,51％ (41/81),(26 ± 17)days and 20％ (16/81) in the conventional therapy group,respectively,with significant differences between the 2 groups (F =10.876,7.390,46.996,31.025,14.556,6.315,4.017,P ＜ 0.05).No significant difference was observed on the levels of alanine transaminase,albumin and the Child-Pugh score before and after the intervention in the precise sequential therapy group,but significant differences were observed in the conventional therapy group.The 1-,2-,3-year tumor recurrence rates and the 1-,2-,3-year survival rates were 17％ (21/126),22％ (17/76),26％ (8/31) and 87％ (110/126),87％ (66/76),84％ (26/31) in the precise sequential therapy group,and 31％ (25/81),38％ (27/71),48％(31/65 ) and 77％ (62/81),75％ (53/71 ) and 60％ (39/65) in the conventional therapy group,respectively.There were significant differences in the prognosis of the patients in the 2 groups ( x2 =4.958,4.292,4.168,4.062,3.640,5.470,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Through accurate assessment of the patients' condition before surgery,precise hepatectomy and precise postoperative intervention,the goal of effective control of tumor recurrence,maximum protection of the liver function and improvement of the survival rate can be achieved.

Objective To evaluate the changes of the occlusal contact characteristics in adolescent patients during 12 months after active orthodontic treatment Methods Twenty adolescent patients with Hawley retainers after active orthodontic treatment were divided into none occlusal interference group and occlusal interference group. The occlusion of the patients was examined with T-Scan Ⅱ system directly after the appliance removal(Tl) and after an average retention period of 12 months(T2). The changes of occlusal contact characteristics were observed. Results The disclusion time during protrusion, left and right lateral movements reduced significantly. The average disclusion time decreased [ from (1.07 ±0.87) , (0. 91 ± 0.47), (0.76±0.43) s to (0.43 ±0. 25), (0.67±0.41), (0.50±0.27) s] significantly (P< 0.05). The occlusal interference disappeared in 4 patients and 1 patient with occlusal interference showed masticatory muscle symptom. The dynamic occlusion [ from (1. 25 ±1.11), (0.84±0.15), (0.52± 0.49) sto (0.35 ±0.15), (0.36±0.15), (0.33±0.11) s ] improved significantly (P < 0. 05) in none occlusal interference group after retention and no statistical differences were found in the occlusal interference group(P>0. 05). Conclusions The overall dynamic occlusion improved after retention in patients with retainers. The presence of occlusal interference affected the self-improvement process and increased the chance of the disorders of stomatognathic system, such as mandibular abnormal movements. Therefore, functional occlusion evaluation and final detailing were needed before appliance removal.

Liquid-phase microextraction is a novel pretreatment technique for biological samples developed on the basis of liquid-phase extraction technology, which is simple, rapid, economical, and environmentally friendly, and has been widely used in the analysis of biological matrix samples such as blood, urine, and saliva. In this paper, we review the basic principles of the main modes of liquid-phase microextraction techniques, i.e., single-drop microextraction, dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, and hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction, and the progress of their applications in biological sample pretreatment by reviewing the literature in the past five years, with a view to providing technical support and reference for sample pretreatment in the fields of in vivo drug analysis, pharmacokinetic studies and new drug development.

In practice of forensic medicine, potential disease can be associated with fatal asphyxia in restraint position. Research has demonstrated that nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) are plentifully distributed in skeletal muscle, contributing to the regulation of contractile and relaxation. In the current study, respiratory functions, indices of diaphragmatic biomechanical functions ex vivo, as well as NO levels in serum, the expressions of diaphragmatic inducible NOS (iNOS) mRNA, and the effects of L-NNA on contractility of the diaphragm were observed in sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) under the condition of restraint position. The results showed that in the CLP12-18h rats, respiratory dysfunctions; indices of diaphragmatic biomechanical functions (Pt, +dT/dt(max), -dT/dt(max), CT, Po, force over the full range of the force-frequency relationship and fatigue resistance) declined progressively; the NO level in serum, and iNOS mRNA expression in the diaphragm increased progressively; force increased significantly at all stimulation frequencies after L-NNA pre-incubation. Restraint position 1 h in CLP12 h rats resulted in severe respiratory dysfunctions after relative stable respiratory functions, almost all the indices of diaphragmatic biomechanical functions declined further, whereas little change took place in NO level in serum and diaphragmatic iNOS mRNA expression; and the effects of L-NNA were lack of statistical significance compared with those of CLP12 h, but differed from CLP18 h group. These results suggest that restraint position and sepsis act together in a synergistic manner to aggravate the great reduction of diaphragmatic contractility via, at least in part, the negative modulation of NO, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of positional asphyxia.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effect of suspension concentrate of niclosamide ethanolamine salt(SC-NE)against Oncomelania hupensis snails in laboratory and field. Methods The experiment of SCNE against the snails by using the immersing and spraying methods was performed in laboratory and field,with control groups of wettable powder of ni-closamide ethanolamine salt(WPN). Results In the laboratory,LC50(s) of SCNE for 24,48 h and 72 h by using the immersion method were 0.0926,0.0629 mg/L and 0.0549 mg/L,respectively. The mortality rates of snails for 24,48 h and 72 h by using the immersion method were all 100％ with the concentrations of 0.25 mg/L. The mortality rates of snails were all 100％ while spraying SCNE for 3 d in the laboratory with the concentrations of 0.25 g/m2. In Jiangling County,except 0.5 g/m3 SCNE immers-ing the snails for 24 h,the mortality rates of snails by using SCNE with the immersing method were all 100％. While the concen-tration of SCNE was 0.5 g/m3 or above,the mortality rates were all 100％after the use of it with the immersion method for 2 d in Gong'an County. In Jiangling County,the mortality rates of snails by using SCNE 0.5 g/m3 for 1 d,3 d,and 7 d with the spray-ing method were 87.5％,92.82％and 97.40％respectively. While the concentration of SCNE was 0.5 g/m3,the mortality rates were 85.94％,86.78％and 94.21％respectively after the use of it with the spraying method for 1 d,3 d,7 d in Gong'an Coun-ty,and the molluscicidal effect of SCNE(1.0 g/m2)was higher than that of WPN. Conclusion SCNE has a high molluscicidal effect in the laboratory and field,and it is a novel and simple formulation of niclosamide.
