1.Optimal therapy of advanced Hodgkin' s lymphoma
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2012;21(2):68-69,76
Advanced-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) has become a curable disease in the majority of patients.ABVD is considered to be the standard therapy,but debates continue regarding the role of radiation therapy(RT)in this patient population. The incorporation of interim positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, and characterization of HL on cellular and molecular levels are emerging as tools for treatment stratification and predictors of disease status. Therapeutic advances over the past 3 decades have resulted in the cure of the majority of the patients with advanced-stage HL.Several questions have emerged when considering what constitutes optimal therapy with a balance between a high cure rate and minimizing shortand long-term toxicity.This review focuses on 3 key elements:what is the optimal chemotherapy? What is the role of radiation therapy(RT)in advanced HL? Can therapy based on clinical biological risk factors be adapted?

Objective Toexplore the findings of bile flow artifacts (BFA)on MR cholangiopancreatography(MRCP). MethodsEighty five patients with normal common bile duct (CBD)and 95 patients with dilated CBD who had MRCP examination were studied retrospectively. Findings of BFA on original thin images of MRCP were recorded. Date were tested by Chi-square test and Spearman ceefficient of rank correlation analysis. ResultsThe rate of BFA in CBD with normal group was 38. 8% ( 33/85 ), in dilated group was 83.2% (79/95), there was statistically significant difference between them( x2 = 37. 512,P = 0. 000). BFA was not observed when the diameter of CBD was no more than 4 mm. BFA was partly observed when the diameter of CBD was 4 mm < ψ≤ 8 mm, single- string sign was predominant findings (52.6% ,30/57 ). Three-string sign was predominant findings in CBD with slight-dilated group ( 85.7%,36/42). Multi-string sign was predominant findings in CBD with medium-dilated group (84. 6%, 22/26 ).There was statistically significant difference between each groups ( x2 = 284. 561, P = 0. 000 ).BFA had different manifestations with CBD of different diameter, there was relative between them ( r = 0. 553, P =0. 000). ConclusionBFA can occur in CBD with normal diameter. CBD with dilated group has higher rate of BFA than CBD with normal diameter. Manifestations of BFA are relative with the diameter of CBD.

Objective To investigate the imaging characteristics of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP)and its diagnostic value.Methods Imaging examinations and clinical data of 13 patients with AIP were reviewed retrospectively.Results All patients had enlargement of pancreas either diffusely ( n =11 ) or focally in pancreatic head ( n =2 ).The swollen pancreas was of homogeneous density on CT scan ( n =13 ),hypointense on T1-weighted images and mildly hyperintense on T2-weighted images in 4 patients.It was demonstrated as mild enhancement on artery phase of dynamic imaging and progressive enhancement on portal and delayed phase images.Capsule-like enhanced rim was presented around the pancreas in 9 patients.Stricture or obliteration of the common bile duct located in pancreatic head was found in 10 patients accompanied by intrahepatic bile duct dilation.Pancreatic duct was invisible on axial images in 11 cases.Among the 6 patients underwent MRCP,it was showed diffuse and irregular narrowing of the main pancreatic duct and stricture of common bile duct located in pancreatic head in 4 cases.ERCP showed diffuse and irregular narrowing of the main pancreatic duct in 7 cases.Extra-pancreatic lesion included veins around pancreas involvement in 8 cases;multiple low density renal lesions in 6 cases; retroperitoneal fibrosis in 2 cases; stricture of hilar duct,interstitial lung disease and ankylosing spondylitis in 1 case,respectively.Conclusions AIP shows some characteristic imaging features,and imaging examinations play an important role in the diagnosis of AIP.Recognition of extra-pancreatic lesions aids in the correct diagnosis of AIP.

Histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) is a novel antineoplastic agent emerging in recent years. The advent of HDACi has provided new options for the treatment of malignant tumors, parasitic and inflammatory diseases. HDACi, as single agent or in combination with other drugs, has a considerable prospect in the treatment of hematological malignancies. The use of HDACi in the treatment of hematological malignancies will be summarized in this paper based on the reports in the 58th ASH Annual Meeting.
6.Effects of 70 pearl flavor pill associating with acupuncture on nerve function in acute cerebral infarction patients
Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2017;37(7):159-161
Objective To analyse the effect of 70 pearl flavor pill associating with acupuncture on nerve function in acute cerebral infarction patients.Methods A total of 128 patients with acute cerebral infarction were enrolled in this study in our hospital from January 2015 to June 2016 and randomly divided into two group.Two groups were treated with routine treatment,the observation group was treated another with 70 pearl flavor pill combined with acupuncture program.Results The total effective of observation group was 92.19%,higher than that of control group 75.00%(P<0.05).After treatment,NIHSS score,FMA motor function score,Serum S-100βprotein,hs-CRP level of observation group were better than that of control group (P<0.05).Conclusion 70 pearl flavor pill associating with acupuncture on the basis of routine treatment can improve hemorheology,reduce inflammation and improve the therapeutic effect and it has no obvious side effects.

Objective To evaluate the hematologic effects of linezolid in advanced aged patients with hospital onset of infection.Methods The clinical characteristics and complete blood routine examination results of 45 elderly patients aged(92.9±5.2)years treated with linezolid over 600 mg of lowest dose everyday for more than 72 hours were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among the 45patients,20 patients(44.4%)had substantially lower platelet,6 patients(13.3%)lower haemoglobin,1 patient(2.2%)lower absolute neutrophil,and the linezolid treatment in 19 patients were discontinued due to hematological system adverse reactions.The significant drop in platelet occurred at(10.2±3.3)days after treatment.The significant drop in hemoglobin occurred at(9.8±3.0)d after treatment.The lowest count of platelet and hemoglobin took place at(13.1±3.9)d and (10.5±3.5)d after treatment,respectively.The drops in platelet and hemoglobin of some patients took place after cease of treatment.Stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed that treatment duration(OR =1.407,P<0.05)and creatinine clearance rate(OR=0.732,P<0.05)were the risk factors for thrombocytopenia.Conclusions The elderly patients using linezolid more likely suffer from adverse reactions of hematological system,particularly thrombocytopeniawhich is significantly more common in patients with renal insufficiency and prolongation of treatment time.The blood routine examination should be monitored closely when elderly patients are treated with linezolid.

AIM: To investigate the effects of lipid-induced insulin resistance on plasma resistin and ghrelin levels in awake rats. METHODS: A hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp was established in awake chronically catheterized rats. Two groups of rats were studied either with a 4 h intraarterial infusion of lipid/heparin or saline. Insulin-mediated peripheral and hepatic glucose metabolism was assessed by insulin clamp combined with [~3H]-glucose infusion, and plasma resistin and ghrelin concentrations were examined before and after clamp with ELISA. RESULTS: During clamp, there was a significant increase in plasma free fatty acid (FFA, P

Fasting plasma preptin level was assayed by RIA in the patients with different glucose tolerances. Regarding fasting plasma preptin levels, it was higher in females than in males. Fasting plasma preptin level was increased in patients with type 2 diabetes as compared with subjects of impaired glucose tolerance and normal controls, and there were positive correlations with diastolic blood pressure, blood triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, free fatty acids, 2 h plasma glucose after glucose load, HbA1C and HOMA-IR, suggesting a potential link between preptin and glucose-lipid metabolism and insulin resistance.
