Acute pancreatitis is a common serious disease, and considered to be inflammatory disturbance course. The early storm of proinflammatory cytokine releasing evokes systemic inflammatorome response syndrome (SIRS) ,and leads to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MOPS). At the late phase, because massive of antiin-flammatory cytokines initiate compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome ( CARS), the body immune func-tions suffer suppressed and result in infection or toxemia. So reestablishing baulance of SIRS/CARS has considera-ble clinical meaning to the AP patient morbidity. In this article, we will overview the relevant factors and mecha-nisms of the SIRS/CARS induced by AP.

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a muhidomain calcium/calmodulin (CaM)-de- pendent Ser/Thr protein kinase with an important role in apoptosis regulation and tumor suppression. DAPK may serve as a diagnostic and prognostic tool to evaluate disease severity, progression, metastatic rate, and re- currence, and may serve as a target for therapeutic intervention.

Objective To investigate the expression level of Annexin Ⅱ in bronchial lung cancer tissue,alveolar lavage fluid(BALF) and pleural effusion and its value in the diagnosis of lung cancer.Methods From January 2014 to March 2016 in Jingzhou Infectious Disease Hospital,80 cases of patients with pleural effusion of lung cancer (Lung Cancer Group),40 patients with benign pleural effusion (benign group) were chose.The expression level of Annexin of two groups of patients with pleural effusion,BALF were detected and compared.Sixty specimens of department of pathology past (after lung cancer surgery cancer) and 30 cases of previously collected normal lung tissues (normal lung tissue) were collected,differential expression by immunohistochemical staining were compared between the two groups of Annexin Ⅱ protein.Results The positive expression of Annexin Ⅱ in lung cancer was 61.67％ (37/60),higher than that in normal lung tissue of 23.33％ (7/30),the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).The positive expression of Annexin Ⅱ in lung cancer patients was significantly correlated with rate of lymph node metastasis and clinical stage of lung cancer(P =0.039,0.029).Group of patients with pleural effusion,BALF expression of Annexin Ⅱ the level was higher than that in benign group(P＜0.001).When the critical value of Annexin in pleural effusion of lung cancer diagnosis was 10.94 μg/L,the sensitivity of diagnosis of lung cancer was 83.47％,the specificity was 80.66％,AUC value was 0.837.The critical value when BALF Annexin Ⅱ in the diagnosis of lung cancer was 52.08 μg/L,the sensitivity of diagnosis of lung cancer was 86.19％,the specificity was 89.22％,the AUC value was 0.898.Conclusion The expression level of Annexin Ⅱ in the BALF and pleural effusion of patients with bronchial lung cancer and lung cancer is increased,and it has a certain clinical value for the differential diagnosis of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of terlipressin in the management of ascites after hepatectomy.Methods Fifty-four patients with hepatic cancer who were admitted to the Union Hospital of Tongji Medical College from January 2010 to January 2011 were randomly divided into the research group (28 patients) and control group (26 patients) according to the random number table.Patients in the research group were treated by the terlipressin and albumin,and patients in the control group were treated by furosemide and albumin.The volume of ascites,urine output,renal function,electrolyte balance,recovery after hepatectomy and complications of the 2 groups were investigated.All data were analyzed by the t test,chi-square test or Fisher exact probability.Results The volume of postoperative maximum drainage was (351 ± 174) ml in the research group,which was significantly lesser than (551 ±233)ml in the control group (t =3.604,P ＜ 0.05).The total urine output of the research group was significantly higher than that of the control group at postoperative day 1 and day 3 (t =5.816,2.722,P ＜ 0.05).All patients had normal renal function except 1 patient was complicated by hepatorenal syndrome in the control group.Electrolyte imbalance was observed in 3 patients (11％) in the research group and 9 patients (35％) in the control group,with a significant difference (x2 =4.456,P ＜ 0.05).The postoperative time of intensive care unit stay and the anal exsufflation time of the research group were (22 ± 12)hours and (68 ±24)hours,which were similar to (23 ± 10)hours and (76 ±28)hours of the control group (t =0.331,1.130,P ＞0.05).The abdominal drainage tube removal time and hospital stay of the research group were (102 ± 42)hours and (15 ±4)days,which were significantly shorter than (140 ±50) hours and (18 ±5)days (t =3.032,2.443,P ＜ 0.05).There were 1 patient in the research group complicated with high blood pressure and 1 patient in the control group with cardiac arrhythmia.The incidences of adverse reaction were 4％ (1/28) in the research group and 4％ (1/26) in the control group,with no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Terlipressin is effective in the management of ascites after hepatectomy,has less effect on electrolyte balance and is beneficial to quick recovery.

Both aspirin and angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE)inhi bi tors are often used concomitantly in patients with cardiovascular disease.The s afety of the combination has been questioned. The potential antagonistic interac tions between ACE inhibitors and aspirin has become the focus of both increasing research and intense debate,with conflicting conclusions havin g been reported in the literature.We reviewed systematically available literatu re on the interactions between ACE inhibitors and aspirin in hyper- tension,acute myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure and found that further trials are needed to shed light on the effects and mechanism of interaction between these drugs.
