Purpose:To study the effect of recombinated human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF,filgrastim) on leukopenia induced by chemotherapy.Methods:Ten cases of leukopenia of grade Ⅳ induced by chemotherapy of malignant tumor were treated with rhG-CSF . When WBC2.5?109/L, rhG-CSF was stopped.Results:All patients with leukopenia of grade Ⅳ recovered to normal after treatment with rhG-CSF , the average time of usage was 6.8 days. The infection rate was 60%(6/10). Conclusions:Filgrastim is effective in the treatment of leukopenia of grade Ⅳ after chemotherapy, rhG-CSF decreases infection and facilitates chemotherapy.

Fourteen critical patients were treated by total parenteral nutrition(TPN) or en- teral nutrition(EN) and good results were achieved.Among the1 4patients,1 0 cases were suffered from MSOF.The results suggest thatnutritional support is very im- portant for the critical patients,especially for their rehabilitation and prognosis.The use of TPN is not limited by the gastroin- testinal function.TPN should be sellected preferably when a patient is critical and se- rious.EN should be used when gastroin- testinal function have recovered in order to reduce the translocation of bacteria and en- dotoxin in the gut and decrease gastroin- testinal bleeding.

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a newly-developed noninvasive technique recently. Being a safe, non-radioactive and reproducible therapy, high-intensity focused ultrasound has been extensively used in the clinical treatment for a variety of solid tumors such as uterine adenomyosis. This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about this technique, focusing on the mechanism, clinical indications and contraindications, safety, efficacy and the complications of HIFU for the treatment of uterine adenomyosis.

Kawasaki disease is an acute self-limiting systemic vasculitis syndrome and usually occurs in children.The small and medium arteries of the whole body are mainly invaded, and marked with coronary arteries.Coronary artery dilation and aneurysm formation mainly occur in the early period.Thrombi, intimal hyperplasia, and calcification could be formed during the later period.Consequently, sometimes, it develops intochronicischemic cardiopathy or myocardial infarction.In that, Kawasaki disease has become the leading cause of acquired heart disease for children in developed countries.Presently, the treatment of coronary artery lesions caused by Kawasaki disease includes drug therapy, and interventional and surgical treatment.However, medications usually fail to solve severe coronary conditions, and only interventional and surgical treatment can we choose.Therefore, the development and indications of interventional and surgical treatment of coronary artery lesions caused by Kawasaki disease were reviewed in this article.

Objective To explore the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs12953-717) of SMAD7 and susceptibility of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Chinese Han population.Methods A single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs12953717) from SMAD7 was detected via Sequenom system in 528 NSCLC cases and 762 healthy controls.Data was statistically analyzed by unconditional Logistic regression method.Results rs12953717 had significant differences between non-small cell lung cancer patients and the controls.Compared with CC/TT (CC combined with TT) genotype,the adjusted odds ratio for the CT genotype was 4.107 (95％ CI:3.206 ～ 5.260,P =0.000 1).Smokers had a 2.004 odds ratio (95 ％ CI =1.583 ～ 2.537,P =0.000 1) of NSCLC compared with the controls.There was a 10.074-fold increased risk of NSCLC among the subjects with CT genotype and smokers.Conclusion The polymorphism of rs12953717 may have relation with risk of NSCLC.Heterozygote (CT) is a susceptibility genotype of NSCLC.Smoking is one of the risk factors of NSCLC.Smoking and CT genotype have synergistic effects on NSCLC susceptibility.

Objective To investigate the proliferation and cytotoxicity of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) induced by ovarian cancer cells transfected with a CD 80 gene containing retroviral vector Methods The ovarian cancer cell line TYK cells were transfected with retro virus vector PLXSN hCD 80 After geneticin (G418) selection, the CD 80 expression of the transfectants was confirmed by flow cytometry CTL was induced by co culture of CD 80 expressing TYK cells (TYK hCD 80 ) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in the presence of anti CD 3 monoclonal antibody (McAb) Proliferation of PBMC was measured using 3?H Thymidine incorporation assay The lysis activity of CTL toward tumor cells was determined using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay Results After transfection and G418 selection, the CD 80 expression was proved by flow cytometry The highest rate of CD 80 expression was 84 9% The TYK cell line expressing high CD 80 was named TYK hCD 80 In the presence of anti CD 3 McAb,TYK hCD 80 significantly enhanced proliferation of PBMC than TYK cells ( 3H Thymidine incorporation, (40 604? 842) vs (8 000? 594) cpm ( P

Objective To explore the methodology of choosing the volume and shape of the mammary implant.Methods The changes of the volume and shape were analyzed in 502 cases of breast augmentation,to find out how to select the volume and shape of the mammary implant.Results The thoracic width H was the most important factor of choosing width of the implant; the SN was the important factor of choosing the height of the anatomic implant; After setting the diameter and height of the implant,a bigger breast could be achieved by increasing the projection of implants.For those very thin females with flat chest, anatomic implants were the better choice. Conclusions Thoracic width,breast volume and other data are the most important factors in choosing the mammary implant.Round and anatomic mammary implants have their specific indications.

Objective To investigate the variation of the chromosomal karyotype of patients with congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia(CPT) and its relation with the neurofibromatosis. Methods Ten patients with complete follow up records in 28 cases of CPT treated between 1982 and 1999 were included in this study. There were 7 males and 3 females. The age of the patients at the surgery ranged 4 to 17 years. Seven patients had skin caf?-au-lait spots. Peripheral venous blood (1-2 ml) of 10 patients was cultured in 1640 culture medium with 10%(v/v) fetal calf serum and phytahematoagglutinin(PHA) for 70-72 hours, and then colchicines was added (10 ?g/ml) in culture medium 4 hours before finishing the culture. The specimens were harvested and the chromosomal karyotype was analysed. Results The karyotype of the chromosomes were normal(46XY or 46XX) in all of the speciments, there were no chromosome aberration, chromosome loss and polyploid. Conclusion Neurofibromatosis has no relation with CPT, the genic location of the CPT may have some relation with the neurofibromatosis.

Objective To establish a method for rapid determination of nitrate in air. Methods Nitrate in air was absorbed using Na2CO3-NaHCO3 solution and the content of nitrate in the absorption liquid was determined by ion chromatography. Results The detection limit of NO3- was 0.008 mg/m3 when the sampling volume of air was 100 L. The linear correlation coefficient was 0.999 6. The relative standard deviation of the method was less than 5% and the recovery rates was 92.0%-96.7%. Conclusion The method had good selectivity and was simple and rapid for the determination of nitrate in air.

50?10~(9)/L. Of the patients, 3 died of liver function exhaustion or disease relapse 1-12 months after transplantation , 2 are still alive with disease for 3-5 months , but others are still alive and disease-free for 3-64 months. Conclusions:PBSCT is a safe therapeutic option that can significantly improve in acute leukemia and malignant solid tumors.
