Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of programmed death-1 (PD1) inhibitor combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the treatment of huge primary liver cancer.Methods:From June 2016 to December 2019, the clinical data of 31 patients with huge primary liver cancer enrolled in the Central Hospital of Lishui were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The tumor size ranged from 10.1 to 18.8 cm, with an average of (14.2±2.3) cm. The patients were divided into TACE group (TACE treatment, 18 cases) and combined group (one week after TACE, patients receiving a dose of 200 mg PD1 inhibitor administration every 21 days, 13 cases), according to whether patients receiving PD1 inhibitors. The patients were followed up. The disease control rate (DCR) were compared between the two groups using Mann-Whitney U test. The median overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results:The DCR in combined group (53.8%, 7/13) was higher than that in TACE group (22.2%, 4/18), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.13, P=0.04). The median PFS (5.0 months) in combined group was longer than that in TACE group (3.0 months), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.39, P=0.04). The median OS (15 months) in combined group was longer than that in control group (9 months), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.51, P=0.02). Conclusion:The combine PD1 inhibitors with TACE is an effective and safe therapy for huge primary liver cancer.

Objective To discuss the clinical application value of Omaha system-based targeting nursing care for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who were treated with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).Methods A total of 60 advanced HCC patients,who were planned to receive TACE,were prospectively and randomly divided into the control group (n=30) and the observation group (n=30).Routine nursing mode was adopted for the patients in the control group,while Omaha system nursing model was employed for the patients in the observation group.The patients of the observation group were evaluated with Omaha system at the time of admission,the key common problems were screened out and targeted nursing measures were employed.Meanwhile,on the days of admission and discharge all the patients of both groups were asked to fill in the forms of Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-17),Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA),social support rating scale (SSQ) and numerical pain rating scale (NRS);and the degrees of depression,anxiety,social support and pain were respectively assessed.Results Both nursing modes could improve the degrees of depression and anxiety as well as the social support system of HCC patients,but the curative effect of these two aspects in the observation group were obviously better than those in the control group (P<0.05).No statistically significant difference in the improvement of pain degree existed between the two nursing models,but Omaha system-based targeting nursing mode could alleviate the patient's pain to a certain extent.Conclusion For patients with advanced HCC,Omaha system-based targeting nursing care can alleviate the patient's negative emotion and promote the patients to establish effective social support system,this nursing mode is superior to conventional nursing mode.Therefore,Omaha system-based targeting nursing has great application potential in clinical practice.

Objective: To obtain polycystin-1 intracellular region. Methods: cDNA of polycystin-1 intracellular region was generated by PCR and then cloned into pProEX Hta, which was prokaryotic expression vector. After verified by sequencing, the recombinant was transformed into E.coli host to express and purify the fusion protein by affinity chromatography. Results: 660 bp cDNA of polycystin-1 intracellular region and 2.6×104 fusion protein were obtained. Conclusion: The fusion protein containing polycystin-1 intracellular region is obtained and is helpful for preparing anti-polycystin-1 monoclonal antibody.

Objective: To clone hGLP-1 cDNA in the pBS SK(+/-)vector and construct the expression vector of pGEX-4T-3/hGLP-1cDNA to express GST-hGLP-1 fusion protein. Methods: The hGLP-1 cDNA was constructed by 6 synthetic oligonucleotides fragments, followed by the procedure of annealing and ligation with oligonucleotides fragments. The hGLP-1 cDNA was cloned into the pBS SK(+/-) vector, and was selected by α-complementation. It was confirmed by DNA sequening, then inserted into the MCS of the fusion expression vector pGEX-4T-3. The recombinant vector was transformed into E. coli TG1. Results: The recombinant plasmid DNA was digested with restrictive endonuclease BamHⅠand XhoⅠ. The result demonstrated that the hGLP-1 cDNA was successfully inserted into the pGEX-4T-3 vector and fusion protein GST-hGLP-1 had been expressed in SDS-PAGE. Conclusion: Expression of GST-hGLP-1 fusion protein can provide foundation for obtaining a larger quantity of recombinant hGLP-1 for experimental and clinic studies.

Objective To explore the quality of life (QOL) and its influential factors among patients with 3 major rheumatic diseases. Methods A total of 216 patients with rheumatic diseases (84 patients with systemic lu- pus erythematosus, SLE, 83 with rheumatoid arthritis, RA, and 49 with ankylosing spondylitis, AS) were recruited. The information with regard to their quality of life, sociopsychological factors and the evaluation of disease activity were obtained by using the medical outcomes study short form-36 (SF-36) and clinic documents. Results Patients with rheumatic diseases scored significantly lower with each subscale of SF-36 as compared to those of a healthy popu- lation in China (P

Sulfur fumigation (SF) is a universal phenomenon in primary processing of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in modern times. In the process, fumigation, sulfur or both of them act on the TCMs. Some active components of TCMs change quantitatively or qualitatively during the processing. At the same time, the sulfur dioxide and heavy metal would remain and cause a serious influence on quality and future development of TCM. This article reviews the chemical compositions change after SF to study the change law and their influence on quality. This article provide references for SF in TCMs' processing for a better and safer quality.

Infestation, moldy and other phenomenon in the processing and storage of Chinese herbal medicines is a problem that faced in the production of Chinese traditional medicine. The low productivity of traditional processing methods can not guarantee the quality of Chinese herbal medicines. Sulfur fumigation is the first choice of grassroots to process the Chinese herbal medicine with its low cost and easy operation. Sulfur fumigation can solve some problems in the processing and storage of Chinese herbal medicines, but modern pharmacological studies show that long-term use of Chinese traditional medicine which is fumigated by sulfur can cause some serious harm to human liver, kidney and other organs. This paper conducts a review about the application history of sulfur fumigation, its influence to the quality of Chinese herbal medicines as well as domestic and foreign limits to sulfur quantity, and a brief introduction of the status of modern processing technologies in the processing of food and some Chinese herbal medicines, the problems ex- isting in the Chinese herbal medicines processing, which can provide a reference basis for the further research, development and application of investigating alternative technologies of sulfur fumigation.

Objective To investigate correlation between aspirin resistance(AR) and inflammatory factors. Methods One hundred and ten patients with coronary heart disease took aspirin 0.1 mg/d for 14 days.It was detected platelet aggregation function induced with adenosine disphosphate (ADP) and arachidonic acid (AA), and investigated correlation between AR and inflammatory factors. Interleukin-1? (IL-1?),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and high sensitive C-reaction protein (hs-CRP) levels. Results IL-6 level of patients with AR was significantly higher than that of aspirin sensitive (AS) patients. The other two index were not different between the two groups. Conclusion IL-6 levels could be used as predictor.
