AIM To investigate antitumor effects of curcumin (Cur) combining with adriamycin(ADM) on human tumor cell lines in vitro . METHODS The antitumor effects of the drugs on tumor cell lines in vitro were determined with MTT method. The Jin's formula was used to analyse the effect of drug combination. RESULTS In simultaneous adiministration Cur 2 04 ?mol?L -1 ～16 29 ?mol?L -1 combining with ADM 0 70 ?mol?L -1 ～5 52 ?mol?L -1 produced a simple addition or potentiation effect. In sequential adiministration the first adiministration of ADM followed by Cur resulted in an antagonistic effect, while the change of the order of adiministration produced an simple addition effect. CONCLUSION Simultaneous adiministration of Cur and ADM produces synergistic effect but sequential adimistration of the drugs only produce a unidirectional synergistic effect.

Objective To activate microglia N9 cell through the oxygen deficit, and to discuss the influence to the N9 cell by ginsenoside Rb1, laying the foundation for the basic study and the clinical medicine development. Methods Through ginsenoside Rb1 intervention, the cell morphology the proliferation ability were observed, ELISA, fluorescent probe DAF-FM DA, Griess the reagent examination, were used to measure TNF-α, the O-2 output, the NO content change, chemiluminescence, the immunofluorescence method, and plastochondria membrane potential, were carried out to detect the cytochrome C content. Results Regardless of being preventive or medical gives, ginsenoside Rb1 can decline the NO,O-2,TNF-α high expression; and reduce the plastochondria membrane potential changing, the cytochrome C redistribution. Conclusion Ginsenoside Rb1 can decline N9 cell activation to a certain extent, reduce expression of the nerve toxic factor, and to stabilize mitochondrial membrane potential and distribution of cytochrome C.

A certain amount of image noise is increased in low-dese protocols, but image quality is still acceptable without problem in CT localization. The reduction of radiation dose and the radiation harm to patients are the superiority.

Objective To assess the efficacy of early detection of breast cancer and the prognostic value of breast self-examination(BSE).Methods Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)involving BSE were included the present meta-analysis based on their qualities.The pooled analysis was performed with RevMany 4.2.8.Results Three RCTs were identified and then they were included the present metaanalysis.In women who conducted a BSE.the rate of biopsy fora lump in breast was 1.27%in the first 5 years,2.47%in more than 5 years but less than or equal to 10 years,and 2.50%in more than 10 years, respectively,all of which were significantly higher than in those who could not conduct a BSE(P<0.05) There was no significant difierence in the rate of final diagnosis and the mortality for breast cancer between the two populations in any follow-up time(P>0.05).Conclusion The rate of biopsy for a lump in breast in women could be increased by a BSE.which should not have been discarded from the early detection of breast cancer completely despite it is not helpful in increasing the rate of final diagnosis and decreasing the mortality for breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of quercetin on human lung cancer NCI-H1395 cell apoptosis. METHODS:CCK-8 was used to detect the effects of 0-200 μmol/L quercetin on human lung cancer NCI-H1395 cell proliferation after treated for 12,24 and 48 h. Hochest33258 staining and flow cytometry were used to detect the effects of 0,20,50,100 μmol/L quercetin on NCI-H1395 cell apoptosis after treated for 24 h. The effects of 100 μmol/L quercetin on NCI-H1395 cell apoptosis was investi-gated after treated with Caspase-8,Caspase-9,Caspase-3 inhibitor. RESULTS:Quercetin could inhibit NCI-H1395 cell prolifera-tion in dose and time-dependent manner. 20,50,100 μmol/L quercetin could induce the apoptosis of NCI-H1395 cell,and apoptot-ic rates were (18.6 ± 4.1)%,(39.1 ± 4.5)% and (58.2 ± 3.5)%. Caspase-8 and Caspase-3 activation inhibition could obviously weaken the inhibitory effects of quercetin on cell(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Quercetin can inhibit NCI-H1395 cell proliferation and induce cell apoptosis,which is related to the external way of cell apoptosis through activating Caspase-8 and Caspase-3.

Objective To evaluate the effect of integrative therapy and influencing factors in patients with intractable constipation (IC). Methods Eighty-four consecutive IC patients were divided into non overlap and overlap groups. All patients received individualized integrative therapeutic regimen for 4 weeks. The symptom scores of constipation and total effective rates were evaluated. Influencing factor of therapeutic effect in IC was analyzed.Results (1) IC of overlap group and non overlap group accounted for 40.5% (34/84) and 59.5% (50/84), respectively. (2)The total effective rates were 50.0% and 78.0% in overlap and non-overlap group, respectively(P

Objective To analyze the results of syphilis serology test among inpatients and to provide information for the control of syphilis.Methods Syphilis serology test results of inpatients from Jan.2010 to Nov.2012 in a tertiary general hospital were collected and retrospectively analyzed.The serum samples were screened by Treponema pallidum (TP) antibody enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and syphilis toluidine red unheated serum reagin test (TRUST) simultaneously.The TP-ELISA positive samples were confirmed by Treponema pallidum particle agglutination test (TPPA).Difference of measurement data was compared with analysis of variance.Results A total of 81 946 cases were collected,among which 1618 cases were positive of anti-TP.The positive rate of anti-TP was 2.27％ in the year 2010,1.58％ in 2011,and 2.11％ in 2012.For male and female patients,the positive rates of anti-TP were 2.38％ and 1.69％,respectively (x2 =48.97,P=0.00).The positive rates of anti-TP in the age groups of ≤19 years,20-39 years,40-59 years,60-79 years,and ≥80 years were 2.83％,0.94％,2.14％,2.37％,and 3.63％,respectively.The titer of TRUST was relatively lower in anti-TP positive inpatients.The anti-TP positive patients with TRUST titer ＜ 1∶8 accounted for 84.65％ in the age group of ≤19 years,79.69％ in the 20-39 years group,81.69％ in the 40-59 years group,86.12％ in the 60-79 years group,and 87.45％ in the age group of ≥80 years.The highest anti-TP positive rate (3.63％) was observed in the age group of ≥80 years with the lowest percentage (12.55 ％) of TRUST titer ≥1∶8.The lowest anti-TP positive rate (0.94％) was observed in the 20-39 years group with the highest percentage (20.31％) of TRUST titer ≥1∶8.Conclusions The characteristics of syphilis serological positivity vary depending on genders and ages.The prevention and control measures for syphilis should be strengthened,especially in the senior population.

OBJECTIVETo explore early clinical effect of acetabular cup in total hip replacement for the treatment of Crowe II developmental dysplasia of hip.

METHODSEighteen patients (18 hips) with Crowe type II developmental dysplasia of hip were treated with total hip replacement from September 2001 to July 2013. Among them,including 13 males and 5 females aged from 42 to 60 years old with an average of 47.6 years old; the courses of diseases ranged from 9 to 22 years with an average of 13.5 years. All the patients had hip joint pain, limb shortening and limited hip function before operation. Harris score of hip joint were used to evaluate recovery of function at 1 day and 12 months after operation. Prosthetic coverage of acetabular cup at 1 week after operation was observed by using radiography.

RESULTSEighteen patients (18 hips) were followed up from 12 to 24 months with an average 17 months. All incisions were healed at stage I. No deep vein thrombosis, hip dislocation, periprosthetic joint infection and prosthesis loosening were occurred. No revision surgery during follow-up period. Prosthetic coverage of acetabular cup was more than 80% at 1 week after operation. Harris score were increased from 42.67 ± 5.06 before operation to 94.79 ± 3.27 at 12 months after operation (t = -45.269, P < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONFor type Crowe II developmental dysplasia of hip patients, 15° face-changing acetabular cups in THR could obtain higher actebular component coverage rate and satisfactory early clinical effects.
