Tianjin Medical Journal 2014;(7):667-669
Objective To investigate the effects of doxycycline on the expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metaloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in breast cancer lung metastasis model mice (BCML-TAⅡ99), and the mechanism thereof. Methods The BCML-TAⅡ99 mouse model was established. The immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expressions of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in BCML-TAⅡ99 model mice and controls. Results The metastasis rate was significantly lower in treatment group than that of control group. The expression of MMP-9 was significantly reduced, but the expression of TIMP-1 was significantly increased, in treatment group compared with those of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Doxycycline can inhibit tumor growth and metastasis in breast cancer with 1ung metastasis model mice by regulating MMP-9 and TIMP-1 expressions.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the economical efficiency of 3 therapeutic plans for acute upper respiratory tract infec-tion caused by group A β-hemolytic streptococcal (GAS). METHODS:In retrospective study,71 GAS positive patients with acute upper respiratory tract infection in our hospital during Mar. 2014-Mar. 2016 were selected and divided into group A(16 cases),B(30 cases),C(25 cases)according to medication method. Group A,B,C were given intramuscular injection of ben-zathine benzylpenicillin(1200000 U),oral administration of penicillin V potassium(0.5 g,q8 h,10 d)or oral administration of amoxicillin sulbactam(0.5 g,bid,10 d),respectively. Clinical efficacy and bacterial clearance were observed,and econom-ics of 3 therapeutic plans were evaluated. RESULTS:The cure rates of 3 groups were 87.50%,90.00%,and 92.00%;bacterial clearance rates were 88.24%,87.87%,and 92.59%,respectively;there was no statistical significance(P>0.05). Cost-minimi-zation analysis was adopted for pharmacoeconomic evaluation. The costs of 3 groups were 237.79,279.49,400.40 yuan,respec-tively. The cure rate and bacterial clearance rate of therapeutic plan C were the highest,but its cost also was the highest. The re-sults of sensitivity analysis were consistent with the results of cost-minimization analysis. CONCLUSIONS:The intramuscular in-jection of benzathine benzylpenicillin can be served as first choice therapeutic plan for recurrent upper respiratory tract infection caused by GAS and patients with rhenmatic fever risk. The patients who are reluctant to be treated with penicillin but guarantee medication time can take penicillin V potassium orally. The patients with poor efficacy of common penicillin can take amoxicillin sulbactam pivoxil.

BACKGROUND: The polarity and the layer-by-layer coating method which are utilized to improve the membrane surface of optical glasses is a new focus for researching in the world. OBJECTIVE: To prepare a stable hydrophilic anti-fogging coating by surface modification. METHODS: Hydrophilic anti-fogging coatings of complexes of polyacrylic acid (PAA), cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) and sodium silicate were fabricated by layer-by-layer coating method. Subsequently, the stable multilayer films were obtained by thermal torrefaction. Then the transmittance, hydrophlicity, and hardness were tested. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the wavelength coverage of 200 nm, the transmittance of the anti-fogging coatings was above 92.9%. In the wavelength coverage of 700-800 nm, the transmittance reached 98.1%, suggesting that the membrane had the good transmittance. Water drop dispersed completely after 230 ms when it contacted with the surface of the multilayer films, suggesting that it had the good hydrophilicity. The hardness of stable films structure was 4 H. The layer-by-layer coating method was simple and favorable for preparing the anti-fogging coatings with good product properties including good stability, anti-fogging function and the improved transmittance.

Objective To investigate the degree of pain for patients with esophageal cancer undergoing surgery, evaluate the influence of pain on life quality, and provide evidence for therapy and nursing. Methods The SF-MPQ and BPI were used to measure the quality and intensity of the pain, and the influence on the life quality. Results Non-manual workers feeled more pain than the manual workers; the degree of the patients' education background positively correlated with PRI emotional score;postoperative pain did not correlated with ages and gender. The more pain, the worse influence on life quality. The pain affected the daily life, emotions, locomotor ability, sleep and enjoyment of life significantly. Conclusions There still existed serious pain in patients with esophageal cancer underwent surgery,and the pain affects the quality of life and postoperative treatment. Nurses should pay close attention to pain management, adopt more accurate evaluation so as to guide the pain control and improve the life quality.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of acupoint injection with nucleotide plus conventional western medicine treatment for moderate and severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods Sixty patients confirmed as moderate and severe COPD were evenly randomized into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given conventional western medicine treatment and injection with nucleotide on bilateral Dingchuan points,and the control group was given conventional western medicine treatment alone.The treatment lasted for one year.The frequency of COPD acute onset and hospitalization times within one year were recorded.Meanwhile,the severity of dyspnea was evaluated with Medical Research Council (MRC) dyspnea scale scoring.Results (1)The frequency of COPD acute onset and hospitalization times within one year in the treatment group were lowered,and the differences were significant compared with those in the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).(2) After treatment,MRC dyspnea scale scores in the treatment group were improved (P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment),but the improvement of the scores was insignificant in the control group(P > 0.05).The intergroup comparison showed that the effect on improving MRC dyspnea scale scores in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P < 0.05),indicating that the severity of dyspnea was much improved in the treatment group as compared with the control group.Conclusion Acupoint injection with nucleotide is effective on enhancing the therapeutic effect of conventional western medicine treatment for moderate and severe COPD.
