Objective To analyze the characteristics of rhabdomyolysis (RM) caused by alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS). Methods The clinical data of 7 patients with RM induced by AWS were analyzed retrospectively. Results All 7 patients were male;the age was 38-63 (51.3 ± 9.8) years. All of the 7 patients showed obvious myalgia and fatigue, of whom 4 patients had limb swelling, and 3 patients had epigastric pain. Creatine kinase and myoglobin levels of 7 cases were significantly increased. One case had acute renal failure. Seven patients were improved after treatment with a large amount of fluid infusion. Conclusions For patients with AWS who have generalized withdrawal seizures and epileptic seizures, muscle cells can be damaged due to prolonged muscle contraction, which can cause RM. Changes of myoglobin, creatine kinase, renal function and liver function in patients with AWS should be monitored at clinical admissions. If RM occurs, the patients should be given early fluid therapy.

Objective To study the effect of extract of cockroach on animals with acute hepatic injury and its antiviral action in vitro. Methods The animal models with hepar injury were established by CCl4, bcg vaccine and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) . And the activities of ALT and AST in serum were measured. Serum of ducks was separated after cockroach extract was administrated. The serum was added to the culture fluid of HBV-DNA transfected hepatic cancer cells-HepG2. Results After the cockroach extract was administrated, the activities of ALT and AST in mouse serum were reduced. Both the therapeutic indexes of cockroach extract and lamivudine were larger than 2. Conclusions Cockroach extract can improve the liver function of animals with acute hepatic injury, and inhibit the secretion of ALT and AST in serum.

A series of novel 4-substituted-3-nitrobenzamide derivatives were designed and synthesized. The structures of the target compounds were confirmed with 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS and element analysis. Anti-tumor activities against HCT-116, MDA-MB435 and HL-60 cell lines in vitro were evaluated by SRB assay. The results indicated most of the target compounds exhibited potent anti-tumor activity. Compound 4a showed the most potent inhibitory activities against three cancer cell lines with the GI50 values of 1.904-2.111 micromol x L(-1). Compounds 4g, 41-4n exhibited more potent inhibitory activities against MDA-MB435 and HL-60 cell lines with the GI50 values of 1.008-3.586 micromol x L(-1) and 1.993-3.778 micromol x L(-1), respectively. The structure-activity relationship of these compounds is discussed preliminarily.

Objective To investigate the effect of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) on the pathogenesis of preeclampsia disease,by detecting the expression of PEDF in the placentas,as well as the relationship between PEDF and the production of placental vessels.Methods A study was performed in 60 cases of pregnant women with preeclampsia in the obstetrical department of Nanfang Hospital affiliated to southern medical university from October 2011 to January 2013,in which 30 cases were patients with mild preeclampsia(mPE) and other 30 cases were those with severe preeclampsia (sPE).40 normal pregnant women who also been hospitalized and delivered were selected as control group.The expression of PEDF and micro-vessel density (MVD) in placentas were assayed by using western blot and SP immunohistochemical method,then the relationship between PEDF and MVD was analyzed.Results (1) The pathological changes of placentas:the placental weight were lightened obviously in the mild preeclampsia and severe preeclampsia groups,the reduced blood vessels and luminal stegnosis were found in chorionic villus,basement membrane of trophocytes were thickening.The hyperplasia syneytiotrophoblast were like nodosity,with focus infarction,fibrinoid necrosis,or thrombogenesis.While there was no the above mentioned pathological alteration in normal control group.(2)The levels of PEDF expression in mild and severe preeclampsia group were 0.63 ± 0.09,0.93 ± 0.07,while 0.47 ± 0.04 in control group,which in mild and sever preeclampsia groups were significantly higher than that in normal group (P < 0.05).Compared to mild preeclampsia group,the expression of PEDF was significantly increased in severe preeclampsia group,there was statistical significance between the difference (P < 0.05).(3) The amount of microvessel density (MVD) in mild and severe preeclampsia group were 106 ±9,93 ±8,while 136 ±9 in control group,which were significantly reduced in mild and severe preeclampsia group,compared to that in normal control group (P < 0.05).And it was significantly lower in severe preeclampsia group than that in mild preeclampsia group (P < 0.05).(4) The expression of PEDF was negatively correlated with the amount of MVD in mild and severe preeclampsia group (r =-0.426,P < 0.05 ; and r =-0.646,P < 0.05 respectively),which was also negative in control group (r =-0.589,P < 0.05).Conclusion Increased PEDF expression in placentas of women with preeclampsia induce the dysfunction of the placental vascular reconstruction and the pathological alteration like ischemic and hypoxia in placentas,which may be involved in pathogenesis and pathogenic progress of preeclampsia.
