The construction of nano-bionic drug delivery system based on cells or cellular components is a research hotspot of novel drug delivery systems at present. The nano-bionic drug delivery system can integrate the characteristics not only high drug loading and controlled release of nano-carriers, but also good biocompatibility, low immunogenicity and natural targeting from bionic components of cell, and it can also integrate with flexible morphology from living cells. Among them, nano-bionic drug delivery system based on macrophages possesses a good prospect of clinical application because of phagocytic function, inherent tendency, deep penetration ability and potential in cell therapy of macrophages in the treatment of tumors. Based on this, this paper reviews the drug loading strategies of nano-bionic drug delivery system based on macrophages and its application in tumor therapy, so as to provide reference for the development of novel drug delivery systems.

Objective:To explore the preventive function for sweating gustatory syndrome and esthetic effect of restoring parotid gland area defect by using platysma flap. Methods: Nine patients who underwent parotidectomy and restored parotid gland area defect with platysma flap were analyzed retrospectively in this study. Observed whether there was an incidence of subjective sweating gustatory syndrome and introcession in the operation region. Results: There was no incidence of subjective sweating gustatory syndrome. Moreover, introcession in the operation region was not obvious. Conclusion: Restoring parotid defects with platysma flap can reduce introcession in the operation region. Application of platysma flap as an interpositional barrier between the skin flap and the parotid bed after parotidectomy can reduce the incidence of sweating gustatory syndrome.

Objective To analyze the emergercy epidemiological characteristics of coeualties with head in-jury in Shanghai. Method By a prospective study,the data of 18 076 casualties with head injury during the whole year 2004 collected from 12 joint hospitals in Shanghai were documented well in the unified survey tables with wide-range items failed in by the attending physician, who got the firsthand information from patients and witness.The data were analyzed by using SPPS version 11.5 software. Results Of 18 076 casualties with head injury,the ratio of male to female was 2.11: 1.The mean age of female was older than that of male (t=10.575, P<0.01).The highest incidence of casualties occurred in people of twenties (24.7 % ). The local residents of Shanghai ac-counted for 34.2% of casualties. More casualties often occurred in December,January,Mareh and August than in he rest. Of 5.1% casualties with head injury were assochted with labour work.The leading cause of injury was dif-ferent in patient cohorts of different ages. Fall was the most main cause of trauma in children cohort (aged<14)and the senile patients cohort (aged > 60). The violert assault and traffic accident caused the most head injuries in the adolescent people cohort ( aged 15～34 years old) and the young people cohort ( aged 35～59 year old). The majority of casualties (85.5%) received CT scan.The scalp laceration (40.2% of patients) was seen more often than other types of injury . The mortality of easualties with traumatic brain injury was 0. 5 % . Conclusions The kmowledge of epidemiologieal aend of emergency deparhnent visitors with head injury is amportant guidance to physicians arranging emergency medical resources rationally and formulating a comprehesive prevention stategy of castahies with head injury.

BACKGROUND: Orphanin, which was found in recent years, is an important bioactive polypeptide. Its extensive distribution in the central nervous system and peripheral tissue suggests a function of adjusting global behaviors.OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation of plasm orphanin level and monoamine neurotransmitters in patients with postpartum depression by determining the levels of orphanin and monoamine neurotransmitters such as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and dopamine(DA) in patients.DESIGN: Case-control experiment taking diagnosis as evidence.SETTING: Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Changzheng Hospital and Changhai Hospital, Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-five healthy women and seventeen women patients with postpartum depression after delivery who came in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Changzheng Hospital and Changhai Hospital, Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA for further consultation during February 2002 to October 2004 were enrolled in this study, and served as control group and postpartum depression group, respectively. All the enrolled women, aged 21 to 43 years, with fair education levels, and voluntarily participated in this study. Women patients of 15 to 25 days after delivery suffered from the incipient postpartum depression with total scores of Edingburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) above 13. Informed consents were obtained from all the subjects.METHODS: The levels of orphanin and monoamine neurotransmitters in venous blood from 25 healthy women and 17 women patients with postpartum depression were determined. ① Sample collecting: Blood was taken from women in the postpartum depression group 2 weeks after onset, while from control group 35 days after delivery. ② Assay method:The level of orphanin was determined with radioimmunoassay (RIA). The reagent kit was provided by phoenix company (USA) and the procedure was strictly performed according to the instructions on the reagent kit. The levels of 5-HT and DA were measured with high-performance liquid chromatography or electrochemical detection method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Changes in the levels of orphanin as well as 5-HT and DA in postpartum depression group and control group. ② Correlation of the total scores of EPDS and the levels of orphanin in postpartum depression group.RESULTS: Twenty-five healthy women and seventeen women patients with postpartum depression after delivery all participated in the result analysis. ① The level of orphanin in the postpartum depression group[(27.39±6.04) ng/L] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(10.37±3.65) ng/L](P ＜ 0.01),the levels of 5-HT in the postpartum depression group [(0.93±0.21) μmol/L] was remarkably lower than that in the control group[(1.43±0.36) μmol/L](P ＜0.05) ,and the levels of DA in postpartum depression group[(2.15±0.41) μmol/L] was obviously lower than that in the control group [(3.64±0.72) μmol/L]( P ＜ 0.01). ②The level of orphanin was negatively correlated with those of 5-HT and DA in postpartum depression group(r = -0.601 , -0.593,P ＜ 0.05). ③ The total scores of EPDS were significantly positively correlated with the level of orphanin (r = 0.512, P ＜ 0.05), and negatively correlated with the levels of 5-HT and DA (r = -0.571,-0.526, P＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: The level of orphanin in patients with postpartum depression is increased and is negatively correlated with the levels of 5-HT and DA, but positively correlated with the total scores of EPDS.
