Objective To explore the relation between the infection of Helicobacter pylori (H .pylori)and colorectal tumor.Methods From January 2012 to January 2013,the medical data of 152 patients with colorectal tumor were collected.According to the findings of colonoscopy examination, the patients were divided into the colorectal adenoma group (84 cases)and the colorectal carcinoma group (68 cases).A total of 88 healthy individuals were also enrolled as control.The differences of H .pylori infection were compared among the colorectal adenoma group,the colorectal carcinoma group and the healthy control group.The distribution of H .pylori infection in different age,gender and nation was analyzed in colorectal tumor group.According to the location,maximum diameter,number,type of pedicle and pathological type of adenoma,the colorectal adenoma group was divided into subgroups and the condition of H .pylori infection was compared among the subgroups.Chi-square test was used in the statistical analysis.Results The positive rates of H .pylori infection of colorectal adenoma group, colorectal carcinoma group and healthy control group were 70.2% (59/84),72.1 % (49/68)and 53.4%(47/88),respectively,where the former two groups were both higher than that of the healthy control group,and the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =5 .147 and 5 .637,both P <0.05).Regarding the H .pylori infection,there was no difference in age,gender and ethnicity among 152 patients with colorectal tumor (all P > 0.05 ).Among 84 patients with colorectal adenoma,there was no statistical difference in the positive rate of H .pylori infection in different location,maximum diameter,number, type of pedicle and pathological type of adenoma (all P > 0.05).Conclusion H .pylori may have promoting effects on the genesis and development of colorectal tumor.

Background Lowing intraocular pressure (IOP) is the only effective treating method in glaucoma.Making sure the change of optic disc parameters and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness(RNFLT) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients after IOP reduced can provide objective evidence for evaluating the effect of lowing-IOP on the function of optic nerve.Objective The present study was to evaluate the change of optic disc parameters and RNFLT in POAG patients after trabeculectomy,and analyze the affecting factors of image parameters.Methods A serial case-observational study was adapted.Forty eyes of 39 patients with POAG underwent trabeculectomy were recruited in the study.IOP was examined and perimetry was performed before operation and 2 weeks,1 month,3 months,6 months and 1 year after surgery.Optical parameters and RNFLT were measured using Heidelberg retina tomography (HRT) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in above-mentioned time points.The correlations between lowing-IOP range or disease severity and optical disc parameters or mean RNFLT (mRNFLT) were analyzed by Pearson linear correlation.Results Mean IOP of the 40 eyes was (32.77±8.64) mmHg before operation and (12.45 ±3.65) mmHg,(13.05±3.90) mmHg,(13.42± 3.33) mmHg,(14.22± 2.60) mmHg and (14.74±2.46)mmHg 2 weeks,1 month,3 months,6 months and 1 year after operation,with a significant difference among various time points (F=13.73,P =0.00).However,no significant difference was seen in the mean defect of perimetry among the different time points (F=1.02,P=0.41).The cup area (CA),cup/disc area ratio (C/DAR),cup volume (CV),mean cup depth (MCD),cup shape measurement (CSM),horizontal C/D,vertical C/D,rim area (RA),rim/disc area ratio (R/DAR),height variation contour (HVC),rim volume (RV),mRNFLT,RNFL cross sectional area (RNFLA) were gradually improved after operation in comparison with before operation.One year after operation,RV,CSM,mRNFLT,RNFLA were still increased,but vertical C/D was reduced after operation than that of before (P＜0.05).No significant differences were found in the whole mRNFLT and superior quadrant mRNFLT,inferior quadrant mRNFLT,nasal quadrant mRNFLT and temporal quadrant mRNFLT among before and after operation (F=1.63,P=0.16; F=0.51,P=0.77; F=1.44,P=0.20;F=1.02,P=0.32; F=1.31,P=0.30).Positive correlations were found between lowing-IOP range and the improvement of RV,CSM,vertical C/D (r =0.45,P =0.02; r=0.41,P=0.04; r=0.58,P=0.00),and negative correlations were seen between absolute value of MD and the improvement of RV,CSM 1 year after operation (r=-0.43,P=0.03; r=-0.62,P=0.00).Conclusions Reduction of IOP after trabeculectomy results in the reversal of optic disc parameters.The improvement of the optic disc parameters may be a protective factor for progression of glaucomatous optical nerve damage.

Objective: To prepare magnolol solid dispersions (Mag-SD), magnolol phospholipids complex (Mag-PC) and magnolol solid lipid nanoparticles (Mag-SLN), and compare their effects on the pharmacokinetics in vivo. Methods: Solvent evaporation method was used to prepare Mag-SD and Mag-PC. Their existential state of Mag in Mag-SD and Mag-PC were analyzed by X-ray power diffraction (XRPD). High pressure homogenization method was employed to prepare Mag-SLN, its particle size and Zeta potential were also studied. The dissolution in vitro of Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN were also studied compared to magnolol suspension. SD rats in each group were administered intragastrically with magnolol, Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN, respectively. The concentration of magnolol in blood was analyzed by HPLC, and the main pharmacokinetic parameters were obtained. The pharmacokinetic behavior and bioavailability of magnolol, Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN were also compared. Results: The results of XRPD indicated that magnolol showed an amorphous state in Mag-SD and Mag-PC. The average particle size and Zeta potential of Mag-SLN was (161.37 ± 3.77) nm and (-29.16 ± 1.83) mV, respectively. The results of dissolution in vitro indicated that the cumulative dissolution of magnolol was 30.6% within 12 h. Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN enhanced its cumulative dissolution to 96.3%, 76.4% and 45.9%, respectively. The results of pharmacokinetics in vivo showed that Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ of Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN were enhanced greatly compared to magnolol suspension. Mag-PC, Mag-SD and Mag-SLN increased its Cmax from (429.67 ± 53.12) ng/mL to (533.62 ± 59.01), (721.73 ± 103.44) and (1 063.21 ± 108.22) ng/mL, respectively. The bioavailability of Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN were enhanced to 1.38, 2.12 and 3.45 times, respectively. Conclusion: Mag-SD, Mag-PC and Mag-SLN could promote the absorption of magnolol in SD rats notably. In addition, Mag-SLN could give a better effect on the bioavailability.

ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between result of hemorheology and non-pathological factors such as sex, age and life habit.Methods3483 healthy adults who had health examination were divided into different groups according to sex and age, and results of hemorheological test of them were analyzed and compared with reference values.ResultsAll hemorheological indexes of men were higher than that of women. The whole blood viscosity of female had an increasing trend along with the age increasing. However, the result of hemorheology of male showed that the index of the age of 30～49 was higher than the age of more than 50, and had a decreasing trend along with the age increasing after the age of 50. The index of high shear viscosity, low shear viscosity and hematocrit of both male and female were all higher than the reference values offered by apparatus.ConclusionEffect of non-pathological factors such as age, sex and life habit on index of hemorheology should be considered.
