Objective To investigate the effect of acetylcysteine on the inflammation and oxidative stress in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods Sixty patients with COPD were divided into two groups by random mechanical sampling method (30 cases each group).The control group was treated with conventional therapy and the treatment group added acetylcysteine for 8 weeks.The levels of tumor necrosis factor- t (TNF- α ),interleukin-6 (IL-6),interleukin -8 (IL-8),superoxide dismutase (SOD),malondialdehyde (MDA) were monitored and analyzed before and after treatment.Results The levels of SOD,MDA were (51.08 ± 7.80),(75.09 ± 8.03) μ U/L and (7.13 ± 0.89),(4.51 ±0.61 ) μ mol/L before and after treatment in the treatment group,and (52.12 ± 7.31 ),(65.16 ± 8.01 ) μ U/Land (7.11 ± 0.87),(6.21 ± 0.78 ) μ mol/L in the control group.There were significant differences before and after treatment in two groups (P<0.01 or <0.05),and there were significant differences after treatment between two groups (P < 0.05).The levels of IL-6,IL-8 and TNF- α were significant differences before and after treatment in the treatment group [ ( 18.25 ± 7.24) ng/L vs.(29.02 ± 6.70) Ng/L,( 115.28 ± 13.76 ) ng/Lvs.(148.99 ± 16.61) ng/L,(20.43 ±3.92) ng/L vs.(32.32 ± 8.18)ng/L] (P <0.05).But there was nosignificant difference before and aftertreatment in the control group [ (25.25 ± 7.55 )ng/L vs.(28.82 ± 7.54)ng/L,( 136.27 ± 12.97) ng/L vs.( 150.21 ± 17.52) ng/L,(28.43 ± 3.92) ng/L vs.(32.56 ± 8.78) ng/L] (P>0.05),there were significant differences after treatment between two groups (P <0.05).Conclusions Acetylcysteine can inhibit inflammation and e hminate free radicals in plasma.Acetylcysteine has beneficial effects on COPD.

OBJECTIVE To understand the mechanisms,adverse effect and notices in use of quinalones.METHODS The adverse effect of quinalones used sinylely or in combination was collected and analyzed.RESULTS Serious central nerve system side-effects,phototoxicity,hepatotoxicity hemolytic anemia,uremia and so on could be found in few cases.Some quinolones could result in Q-T interval elongation inducing the severe ventricular dysrythmia.The serum glucose also could be affected when quinolones were used together with the medications for diabetes.CONCLUSIONS The key points for quinolones usage are rational use and paying attention to their safety.

Objection To observe the change rules of quantity and species of diatom sin Hunhe River in Shenyang and to provide technology and scientific evidence for drow ning identification and the location of drow ning in forensic investigation. Methods In 2011, different locations for collecting water sam pleswere chosen in Hunhe River in Shenyang. Water sam pleswere collected and variation of quantity and species of diatom swere observed every month. And variation of dom inant species of diatom swas ob-served every week. Results The quantity, speciesand dom inant species of diatom sin Hunhe River in Shenyang varied with different tim eand locations. The quantity and species of diatom swere lowest from Decem ber to February and gradually increased, reaching peak in May and second peak in October, and then gradually decreased. The dom inant species of diatom s varied significantly adjacent two weeksat same location from April to N ovem ber, but had little changesat different locationsin same week from July to August. Conclusion The change rules of quantity and species of diatom sare com plicated and affected by various factors such as environm ent and hydrology. The change rules of speciesand quantity of diatom s should be considered in forensic investigation of drow ning identification and the lo-cation of drow ning.

Purpose To investigate the expression of FABP5 in oligodendroglioma and its clinic pathological significance.Methods Immunostaining of FABP5 and Ki-67 were performed in 87 oligodendrogliomas and 23 paracancerous brain tissues.The relationships between FABP5 expression and Ki-67 expression or clinic pathological parameters were statistically analyzed.Patients were followed up after operation.Results (1) The expression of FABP5 was significantly higher in oligodendroglioma [63.2% (55/87)] than that in normal control [34.8% (8/23)].(2)The expression of FABP5 was positively correlated with the histological grade (P =0.018,rs =0.254) and the Ki-67 expression (P =0.003,rs =0.318) in oligodendroglioma.(3) Univariate analysis showed that the expression of FABP5 protein,Ki-67 protein,age and chemotherapy were significant prognostic factors for oligodendroglioma patients.Conclusion FABP5 may play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of oligodendroglioma,and could be used as a novel biological indicator of disease progress as well as prognosis for oligodendroglioma patients.

Objective To investigate vascular endothelial growth factor-c (VEGF-C) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-3(VEGFR-3) mRNA expression, microvessels density (MVD) and lymphatic microvessels density (LVD) in human hepatocellular carcinoma and normal liver tissue. Try to illuminate the relationship among VEGF-C,VEGFR-3,MVD,LVD and the clinical pathological features of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Liver tissue of 60 cases definitely diagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma and 20 normal cases were collected. VEGF-C and VEGFR-3 mRNA expression were examined by RT-PCR, MVD and LVD were examined by immunohistochemistry staining. Relationship between these indexes and clinical pathological features of hepatocellular carcinoma was also analysed. Results VEGF-C and VEGFR-3 mRNA expression, MVD and LVD in hepatocellular carcinoma were higher than those in normal liver tissue (P<0.01); In hepatocellular carcinoma tissue, expression of VEGF-C mRNA positively related with VEGFR-3 mRNA, MVD and LVD(P<0.01). VEGF-C and VEGFR-3 expression positively related with portal vein tumor thrombus, intrahepatal metastasis and lymph node metastasis (P<0.01). MVD positively related with portal vein tumor thrombus and intrahepatal metastasis (P<0.01). LVD positively related with lymph node metastasis (P<0.01). Conclusion VEGF-C and VEGFR-3 expression increase in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue. They might play roles in tumor invasion and metastasis by inducing angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis.

Objective To prepare a new type of micropore porcine acellular dermis matrix with the aid of laser (LPADM),and to validate the healing effect of the LPADM through the phrase Ⅰ composite transplanting on the back of the full- thickness skin defects in SD rats.Methods In vitro,the allogeneic fibroblasts were separately cultured with the LPADM (LPADM group) or the non-pore PADM (non-pore LPADM group),while fibroblasts cultured by pure medium were used as control.After culture of 1 day,3 days and 5 days,the contents of IL-10,IL-6,TGF-β1,LN,VEGF expressed by fibroblasts were determined by double-antibody sandwich ELISA method.In vivo,the phrase Ⅰ transplantations of LPADM graft with split-thickness autologous skin were carried on the backs of the full-thickness cutaneous defects of SD rats.The healing condition was observed and analyzed by histological tests.Results The differences of the absorbance value between the LPADMgroup,PADM group and control group in each day were not statistically significant (F=0.050-1.763,P>0.05).The transplantation of LPADM graft with split-thickness autologous skin graft resulted in high rate of surviving without signs of rejection 3 weeks later.After 1-month of transplantation,the regenerated skin was well enough to be lifted without any serious scars.Conclusions The phrase Ⅰ transplantation of LPADM graft with split-thickness autologous skin graft can accelerate the healing process of full-thickness skin wounds with high biological safety.
