Gastroesophageal reflux disease( GERD)is caused by dysfunction of lower esophageal sphincter( LES), which allows the contents of stomach and duodenum to reflux into esophagus. Currently,medical and surgical therapies are the main treatment for GERD,but patients need to take life-long acid suppression and the surgical treatment has the risks of potential side effects. Endolumenal therapy as a minimally invasive approach to GERD can safely and effectively relieve the symptoms of GERD,especially Stretta radiofrequency procedure,transoral noninvasive fundoplication( TIF ) and LinX reflux management system. This article reviewed the advances in study on endolumenal therapy for GERD.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the mechanism and clinical significance of specific immunotherapy (SIT) on the expression changes of GM-CSF and IL-5 in the tissue samples of recurrent nasal polyps.
METHOD:
Perennial allergic rhinitis patients with recurrent nasal polyps were randomly divided into 2 groups. The experimental group of 19 patients was treated by SIT and standardized treatment (glucocorticoid nasal spray) , and the control group of 17 patients was only treated by standardized treatment (glucocorticoid nasal spray). We measured the expression levels of GM-CSF and IL-5 in the tissue samples of the nasal polyps by ELISA, and compared the results obtained before treatment with expression levels detected at 6 months and 1 year after the treatment.
RESULT:
The expression of GM-CSF and IL-5 in the recurrent nasal polyps reduced significantly (P < 0.05) in both groups after 6 months and 1 year post-treatment compared with pre-treatment, and the expression of GM-CSF and IL-5 in the experimental group was much lower than that of the control group.
CONCLUSION
SIT decreases the expression of GM-CSF and IL-5 and reduces the inflammatory reaction in the tissue samples of recurrent nasal polyps.

Objective To observe the damage of various organs of rats with exertional heatstroke (EHS), and to investigate the protective effect of oral rehydration salts Ⅲ (ORSⅢ) on multi-organ function in rats with EHS. Methods Fifty-one male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups by random digit table: normal control group (n = 13), EHS group (n = 13), EHS+water group (n = 12), and EHS+ORSⅢ group (n = 13). All rats in the EHS groups received adaptive training for 7 days before the experiment. On the 8th day, the rats of EHS+water and EHS+ORSⅢ groups were orally given 20 mL/kg water or ORSⅢ 30 minutes before the experiment. No pretreatment was performed in the EHS group. EHS model was reproduced by forcing rats to run under hot environment. The rats which refused to exercise and which core temperature > 40.5 ℃ were considered as the onset of EHS. The rats in the normal control group were exposed to room temperature (25±2) ℃ and humidity (50±5)% without any treatment. Six hours later, blood of inferior vena cava was collected, and the levels of serum MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum potassium, serum sodium and serum chloride were determined by automatic chemical analyzer. Serum intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The levels of LDH, ALT, AST, BUN, serum sodium and serum chloride in the EHS group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group [LDH (U/L): 1 220±427 vs. 837±485, ALT (U/L): 138 (97, 164) vs. 37 (33, 42), AST (U/L): 409 (380, 566) vs. 86 (78, 104), BUN (mmol/L): 11.7 (9.6, 13.2) vs. 5.9 (5.5, 6.1), serum sodium (mmol/L): 148.0 (143.5, 154.5) vs. 139.0 (138.0, 140.5), serum chloride (mmol/L): 100.9±2.3 vs. 97.3±1.4, all P < 0.05], but no significant difference in CK-MB, SCr or serum potassium could be found [CK-MB (U/L): 1 280±373 vs. 1 379±480, SCr (μmol/L): 38.2±7.5 vs. 35.5±6.3, serum potassium (mmol/L): 5.5 (4.4, 6.2) vs. 4.7 (4.4, 4.9), all P > 0.05]. In the EHS+ORSⅢ group, only serum potassium level was significantly lower than that in the EHS group [mmol/L: 4.0 (3.7, 4.4) vs. 5.5 (4.4, 6.2), P < 0.01], while no significant difference in other parameters was found between the EHS+ORSⅢ group and the EHS group as well as the EHS+water group. Serum I-FABP level in the EHS group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group [μg/L: 36.90 (29.10, 45.00) vs. 11.39 (0.31, 20.80), P < 0.01]. Serum I-FABP level in the EHS+water and EHS+ORSⅢ groups were notably lower than that in the EHS group [μg/L:24.19 (20.00, 28.36), 0.31 (0.31, 5.58) vs. 36.90 (29.10, 45.00), both P < 0.01], additionally, I-FABP level was much lower in the EHS+ORSⅢ group (P < 0.01). Conclusions EHS could lead to liver, intestinal barrier dysfunction and electrolyte disturbance. Pre-treatment of ORSⅢ could alleviate the intestinal dysfunction and electrolyte disorder caused by EHS in rats. It can lower the serum potassium to some extent. However, ORSⅢ failed to protect liver from EHS.

Objective To compare transdermal penetration of triamcinolone acetonide liposparticles (TAA-LPPs) and TAA-Ethosomes in vitro. Methods The TAA-LPPs and TAA-Ethosomes were produced and the morphology was observed by transmission electron microscope,particle size was detected by laser particle analyzer. The percutaneous permeability in vitro was tested by modified Franz diffusion pools. The amount of penetrated triamcinolone acetonide and the retention in the skin were de-termined by HPLC. Results The shape of TAA-LPPs and TAA-Ethosomes was almost spherical with mean diameter of (99. 9±1. 3) and (105±1. 4) nm, respectively. The cumulative transdermal penetration of TAA-LPPs, TAA-Ethosomess and TAA suspension was (53. 59±4. 40),(87. 03±4. 87),and (30. 54±8. 61) μg·(cm2 ) -1 , respectively . The drug retention in the skin after 32 h was (1. 02±0. 13), (0. 62±0. 08), (0. 55±0. 17) μg·(cm2 ) -1 , respectively. Conclusion TAA-LPPs is better for transdermal administration of triamcinolone acetonide by reducing systemic absorption of the drug.

OBJECTIVETo study postoperative anorectal dynamic change in ultra-low rectal cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic intersphincteric resection.
METHODSClinical and follow-up data of 26 ultra-low rectal cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic intersphincteric resection in our department from January 2007 to January 2013 were retrospectively analyzed (observation group). Thirty rectal cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic low anterior resection by the same surgical team in the same period from the Medical Record Room were randomly extracted as control group. The observation indexes included preoperative and postoperative anal resting pressure(ARP), anal maximum squeeze pressure (AMSP), rectal maximum tolerable volume (RMTV), rectal anal inhibition reflex (RAIR) and Wexner anal function scores (0 means normal).
RESULTSThere were no significant differences in clinical baseline data between the two groups(all P>0.05), except the distance from lower edge of tumor to dentate line [(2.9±0.4) cm in observation group vs. (5.0±0.5) cm in control group, P=0.000]. There were no differences in preoperative anorectal manometry and Wexner anal function score between two groups (all P>0.05). The average follow-up time in observation group and control group was 14.5 months and 14.0 months respectively. Three months after operation, significant differences between observation group and control group (all P=0.000) were as follows: defecation frequency [(6.0±1.5) times/day vs. (2.5±1.0) times/day], Wexner anal function score(5.0±0.9 vs. 2.9±1.2), ARP [(32.0±6.7) mmHg vs. (45.0±8.2) mmHg], AMSP [(90.1±6.9) mmHg vs. (110.0±7.5) mmHg], RMTV [(61.0±7.2) ml vs. (91.1±7.5) ml] and positive rate of RAIR [11.5%(3/26) vs. 66.7%(20/30)]. One year after surgery, there were no significant differences in defecation frequency, Wexner anal function scores, ARP, AMSP and RMTV between the two groups (all P>0.05), however the difference in positive rate of RAIR was still significant[38.5%(10/26) vs. 93.3%(28/30), P=0.000].
CONCLUSIONLaparoscopic intersphincteric resection for ultra- low rectal cancer can achieve satisfactory anorectal dynamic effect.

Objective:To investigate the effects of hepatitis B virus X (HBx) on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) proliferation, invasion, and sorafenib resistance.Methods:HepG2 cell line infected with HBx ORF lentivirus was set as the HBx high expression group and infected with empty vector was set as the negative control group. The interference group was infected with the HBx siRNA virus based on the HBx high expression group to reduce HBx expression. Interference control group as interference group but with infected empty vector virus. Western blotting was used to measure the protein level of HBx. Cell proliferation, invasion ability, and sorafenib semi-inhibitory concentration (IC50) of HCC cells under different HBx expression levels were respectively detected by cell proliferation assay kit, Transwell invasion assay, and cell titer-glo kit.Results:Western blotting showed that the stable cell lines were successfully established. Cell proliferation of the HBx high expression group was better than that of the blank control and negative control groups, and the cell proliferation of the interference group was lower than that of the interference control and HBx high expression groups, and the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05). The number of cells crossing Matrigel gel was (46.2±4.1), (50.7±5.1) and (48.2±5.2) in the blank control group, negative control group, and interference group, respectively. The number of cells crossing Matrigel gel in the HBx high expression group (124.2±8.3) and the interference control group (117.2±7.5) were higher than the above three groups, respectively, and the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05). The IC50 of cells in the HBx high expression group and the interference control group were (5.36±0.31) μmol/L and (5.48±0.20) μmol/L, respectively, which were higher than those in the blank control group, the negative control group, and the interference group (4.75±0.22) μmol/L, (4.60±0.14) μmol/L and (3.98±0.03) μmol/L. The differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:HBx promoted the tumor proliferation and invasion of HepG2 HCC cells, enhanced the ability to sorafenib resistance, and inhibited apoptosis.

Based on randomized block design of experiment, agronomic traits and yields of 14 F1 generations of Dendrobium officinale were determined. The results showed that the differences in agronomic traits and yields among families were significant, and the hybrid vigor was obvious. Families of 6b x 2a, 9 x 66 and 78 x 69 were selected with the remarkable superiority of yields, agronomic traits and product customization. Correlation analysis between agronomic traits and yields showed that plant height, stem diameter, leaf number, blade length and blade width were all significantly correlated with biological yields and economic yields. Among which, stem diameter, leaf number and blade length were the most significant, and an optimal linear regression model could be established. When the number of shoots was fewer than 4.5, both biological yields and economic yields increased with the increasing number of shoots, but it could not much affect yields when the number of shoots was larger than 4.5. Shoots number, stem diameter and leaf index were basic stability when compared biennial traits to annual, which could be used for early selection.
