Objective To observe the inhibit effect of triplex forming oligonucleotide (TFO)(platelet-derived growth factor-B chain, PDGF) on tumor growth and angiogenesis in rats with glioma.Methods 1?10~6 C_6 glioma cells with high-flow microinfusion were seed into right caudate putamens of 18 rats by stereotaxic technique. TFO was injected in situ 1 week after glioma cells inoculation. Treat group Ⅰ and treat group Ⅱ received TFO at dose of 1.5 mg/20 ?l and 3.0 mg/20 ?l, respectively. The same doses were given again at 8, 11 and 14th day after glioma cells inoculation. The control group was treated with 20 ?l normal saline at same time like treat groups. Three weeks after glioma cells inoculation, all the rats were killed. The expressions of, PDGF-B, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were detected with microscopic histology.Results The inhibition rate of tumor growth was 66.0% in treat groupⅠand 92.2% in treat group Ⅱ. There was significant difference between the two groups ((P

This study was aimed to assess the proportion and causes of misdiagnosis of pancreatic cancer (PC), and the effects of misdiagnosis on and treatment of PC, so as to sum up experiences and improve the diagnosis and treatment. 1027 cases with confirmed diagnosis of PC were retrospectively analyzed in detail. The patients were divided into misdiagnosed group and a group with correct diagnosis. The relevant data of the two groups were analyzed by stastical methods, and the differences between them were assessed. It was found that 586 cases (57 1%) were misdiagnosed.Fifty five diseases were involved in misdiagnosis, among them gastritis and duodenitis, peptic ulcer, virus hepatitis, cholecystitis and cholelithiasis, chronic pancreatitis wese the commonest. The differences of duration of diagnosis, main symptoms, resection rate, and half year survival rate between misdiagnosed group and correct diagnosis group were significant. It is concluded that PC is often misdiagnosed as other diseases. Early diagnosis and treatment is critical to the prognosis. The physician should be aware that PC may present a veriety of clinical manifestations, and therefore he or she should analyze comprehensively the symptoms and signs in order to improve diagnosis and treatment.

To study the relationship between the occurrence of pancreatic cancer with diabetes mellitus, other medical conditions and familial history in Chinese population. A case control study comprising 493 histologically confirmed pancreatic cancer patients and 1031 hospital non neoplastic controls matched with age, sex and economical income was conducted. The value of odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) to estimate the relative risk of diabetes mellitus, other medical conditions and familial history were calculated. The results showed that ORs and 95%CIs of diabeties diagnosed 2 years prior to the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, cholelithiasis, chronic pancreatitis, cancer history, pulmonary tuberculosis, Helicobacter pylori infection, family history of cancer and family history of diabetes mellitus were 4 64(2 05~10 49),4 12(2 81~6 04),18 38(6 33~53 35),9 47(4 97~18 06),4 21(2 30~7 72),1 14(0 45~2 89),2 01(1 29~3 14), 0 83(0 15~4 56) respectively. The p values of diabeties and cholelithiasis in logistic regression analysis were less than 0 05. The analysis suggested that diabetes mellitus, cholelithiasis, chronic pancreatitis, cancer history, pulmonary tuberculosis, and family history of cancer were risk factors of pancreatic cancer, whereas diabetes mellitus and cholelithiasis were the independent factors.

Smoking is presently the only generally accepted risk factor for pancreatic cancer. In recent studies, reproductive history has been associated with pancreatic cancer, but with contradictory results. In order to evaluate a possible association between age of first parturition and the number of births and pancreatic cancer, we conducted a case control study with a hospital background. Association between age of first parturition and the number of births and pancreatic cancer was found, and it remained after adjustment for cigarettes smoking, alcohol consumption, body mass index, cholelithiasis, cholecystectomy, diabetes mellitus, chronic pancreatitis and partial gastrectomy. Young age of first parturition and high reproductive history, such as 3 or more births were risk factors for pancreatic cancer.

To study the clinical features of the pancreatic cancer (PC), clinical symptoms of 1027 diagnosed cases of PC were retrospectively analyzed in detail, including their dynamic changes with regards to the patients'sexes, ages, blood types, and tumor locations in the pancreas. The results showed that abdominal pain, jaundice and epigastric discomfort were the prevailing initial symptoms in these 1027 cases. Abdominal pain, jaundice, weight loss, and anorexia were the main symptoms. Unusual symptoms were seemed to be different in different patients. The clinical symptoms could be dramatically different with difference in patients′ age and tumor location. The blood type might also infhluence the clinical symptoms in certain degree. It is concluded that the clinical symptoms of the PC were atypical in general, but still there were some characteristics.The physician should grasp these characteristic symptoms in order to make an early diagnosis.
