1.Excretion and clinical value of fecal calprotectin in preterm infants during the first two weeks of life
International Journal of Pediatrics 2014;41(2):198-201
Objective To determine the time course of fecal calprotectin (FC) excretion in preterm infants in the first two weeks of life and to identify influencing factors of FC levels.To explore whether FC may be an useful marker for the identification of gastrointestinal conditions in preterm infants.Methods FC concentration was measured using ELISA in 141 samples (50-100 mg)obtained from 47 preterm infants(gestational age less than 32 weeks or birth weight less than 1 200 grams)at birth,on day 7 and on day 14(The following was called FC1,FC2 and FC3 level for short).Results FC3 level was significantly higher than FC1 and FC2 levels (P <0.05),there were no significant differences between FC1 and FC2 levels in the 47 preterm infants(P > 0.05).The FC1 level in infants whose mothers had antenatal infection was significantly higher(P < 0.05).The FC2 level was negatively correlated with the antibiotic courses(r =-0.325,P < 0.05).The FC2 level in infants with feeding intolerance was significantly lower than that in infants with feeding tolerance(P < 0.05).The FC2 level in infants with feeding tolerance and the FC3 level in infants with feeding intolerance were positively correlated with the volume of enteral feeds,respectively (r =0.433,0.479,P < 0.05).Contusion Antenatal infection and postnatal enteral feeds may lead to an increase in the excretion of FC in preterm infants.FC level was associated with enteral feeding and may be a useful marker for evaluation of gastrointestinal function in preterm infants.

Morus alba L. (mulberry) is a well-known deciduous tree, belonging to the genus of Morus of Moraceae famlily. Its leaves, twigs, roots (bark) and fruits are widely used in the traditional Chinese medicine. The active constituents of mulberry contained flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, coumarins, with the significant hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, antihypertension, anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-tumor and immunomodulatory activities. This review summarized the research progress of the major pharmacological activity, pharmacokinetics and drug-drug interaction based on CYPs and transporters of mulberry and its active constituents.

The genes amplified in breast cancer family,as the novel defined hormone receptor co-activators,of which the key number is amplified in breast(AIB) 1,is critical to the transcriptional activation function of nuclear hormone receptors.The abnormal expression of protein is related to the tumorigenesis and development of many tumors.Recently,emerging evidence suggests that the member of AIB family expresses abnormally and amplifies in ovarian tumors.Collectively,these results suggest that the AIB family is involved in the carcinogenesis and the development of ovarian cancers.Further research is required to explore the mechanism and significance as well as to determine the role of AIB family in ovarian cancers,which will potentially leading to a new prognostic marker and new therapeutic targets.

[Objective]To study the effects of different bionic microstructure of artificial bones on the growth and osteogenesis characteristics of dog bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs).[Method]The artificial bones were divided into 4 groups in the experiments:perpendicular structure(experimental group,A),concentric structure(experimental group,B),CPC/ rhBMP-2(calcimrt phosphate cement composited with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2)(control group,C)and pure CPC(control group,D).Dog bone marrow mononuclear cells were isolated from the bone marrow by gradient centrifugation and then cultured in non-induced condition.BMSCs at 3~(rd) passage were harvested and inoculated onto the artificial bones of the 4 groups.The implanted cells and artificial bones were retrieved and observed at different times with fluorescence microscope,scanning electron microscope.The proliferation of BMSCs was evaluated by MTT method,and the osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity.[Result]The cultured BMSCs adhered well to the surface of all artificial bones and it was better to A and B groups than to C and D groups.By MTT method,the A values of group A,B,C were significantly higher compared with group D(all P0.05);The ALP activities of BMSCs in group A,B,C and D all increased significantly from the 4~(th) day to the 7~(th) day(P0.05).[Conclusion]The bionic microstrueture artificial bones are satisfactory carriers of BMP and possess good cellular biocompatibility with dog bone marrow stromal cells and have the ability to enhance the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.

Objective To study intraoperative neural electrophysiological monitoring applied in lumbosacral spinal cord tumor resection.Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 212 patients undergoing lumbosacral spinal cord tumor resection with or without intraoperative neural electrophysiological monitoring in our hospital.The patients were divided into two groups:124 patients in the monitored group received intraoperative neural electrophysiological monitoring while 88 ones in the control group did not.The monitoring was performed by recording the cortical somatosensory evoked potential (CSEP),dermatomal somatosensory evoked potential (DSEP) and electromyography (EMG).The patients were followed up for 3-6 months and their postoperative outcome was analyzed.Results There were significant differences in the outcome (P <0.05),but no difference was found in the incidence of complications between the monitored group and the control group.The sensitivity of CSEP +DSEP+EMG was 100%,and the specificity was 55.9% in the former group.Conclusion Combined monitoring with CSEP,DSEP and EMG during lumbosacral spinal cord tumor resection is valuable in protecting the spinal nerve roots and ensuring better operation safety.
