Objective To study dose-response relationship and screen the optimized fractionated irradiation schedules in subclinical tumors of malignant glioma.Methods Balb/c-nude mice bearing human malignant glioma xenograft were assigned randomly into control group,fractionated irradiation schedules group and nimotuzumab-conventional fraction group.The fractionated schedules were 200 cGy x 5f/w,300 cGy ×5f/w,160 cGy ×2f/d x5 d and 400 cGy ×3f/w with total dose of 40 Gy and 60 Gy,respectively.Measurement indexes were tumor-forming rate,average recurrence time and maximum diameter of the tumor bottom.The observation lasted 24 weeks.Results With the total dose of 40 Gy,none of the significant long-term tumor regression were detected in any fractionated irradiation schedules; 400 cGy x 3f/w with complete tumor response at the end of treatment showed a better short-term curative effect.With the total dose of 60 Gy,long-term control rate of each fractionated irradiation schedule group was improved with prolonged average recurrence time of varable degrees,except 200 cGy x 5f/w fractionated schedule (tumor formation rate was 100％ at the end of treatment and average recurrence time was the poorest of 108 d).160 cGy × 2f/d × 5 d fractionated schedule showed the best curative effect with no tumor formation in 2 of 8 mice and longest recurrence time of 143 d.300 cGy x 5f/w fractionated schedule ranked second with no tumor formation in 1 of 8 mice and average recurrence time was 137 d.400 cGy x 3f/w fractionated schedule produced the poorest outcome with no case cured.There were no significant changes in the tumor-forming rate or average recurrence time when nimotuzumab was concurrently used for subclinical tumors of malignant glioma with total dose of 60 Gy.Conclusions Conventional fractionated irradiation is not the best option to control the sustained growth.160 cGy ×2f/d ×5 d and 300 cGy × 5f/w might be the optimized fractionated irradiation schedules for subclinical tumors of malignant glioma.

Objective To investigate protective effects of schisandra lignans on doxorubicin-induced liver injury in rats. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into six groups: normal control, model control, vitamin C and schisandra lignans at small, middle, and high doses. The liver injury model was established by intraperitoneal injection of doxorubicin. Normal controls were intragastrically administrated with 0. 9%sodium chloride solution,while other groups were administrated with different medications,respectively. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) in serum,nitric oxide (NO) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in liver tissue homogenate were measured. Histopathological changes in hepatic tissues were also observed. Results Serum IL-10 and tissue NO were obviously lower in the model control group than those in other groups,while those in all schisandra lignans treated groups were significantly improved (P<0. 05, P<0. 01). The AST level in schisandra lignans middle- and high dose groups was (372. 58±105. 80) and (327. 92±42. 80) U·g-1 ,respectively,significantly lower than (565. 07±22. 13) U·g-1 in the model control group (P<0. 05,P<0. 01). Histopathological analysis showed that degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes were remarkably alleviated in all schisandra lignans treated groups. Conclusion Schisandra lignans protect rats against doxorubicin-induced liver injury.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognosis of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) and drug combined with endoscopic treatment in patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB).Methods:From January 2012 to December 2013, at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University, the data of 147 patients with liver cirrhosis and EGVB undergoing TIPS or drug combined with endoscopic treatment were retrospectively collected, with 87 cases in TIPS treatment group and 60 in drug combined with endoscopic treatment group.The 5 years follow-up data were analyzed, and the overall survival rates, rebleeding-free survival rates and hepatic encephalopathy-free survival rates at 6 weeks, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years after treatment of two groups were compared. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, Fisher exact test, Z test, log-rank test and trend test were used for statistical analysis. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, etiology, Child-Pugh classification, initial liver function, coagulation function, liver ascites, previous history of hepatic encephalopathy, blood pressure and preoperative blood transfusion history between the TIPS treatment group and combination of drugs and endoscopy treatment group (all P>0.05). Forty-one patients died within 5 years, of which 20 (48.8%) died of rebleeding and 6 (14.6%) died of hepatic encephalopathy. There were no significant differences in 6-week, 1-year and 2-year overall survival rates between the TIPS group and drug combined with endoscopic treatment group (all P>0.05), however the 5-year overall survival rate of the TIPS treatment group was higher than that of the drug combined with endoscopic treatment group (78.4% vs. 63.2%), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=2.06, P=0.048). The 6-week, 1-year, 2-year, 5-year rebleeding-free survival rates of the TIPS group were 97.7%, 96.5%, 88.9% and 70.9%, respectively, which were all higher than those of the drug combined with endoscopic treatment group (86.7%, 53.3%, 43.3% and 27.1%), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=2.35, 6.39, 6.26 and 4.80, all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hepatic encephalopathy-free survival rates at 6 weeks, 1 year and 2 years after treatment between the TIPS group and drug combined with endoscopic treatment group (all P>0.05), however the 5-year hepatic encephalopathy-free survival rate of the TIPS treatment group was lower than that of the drug combined with endoscopic treatment group (67.7% vs. 86.7%), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=2.28, P=0.030). The lower the Child-Pugh classification, the higher the cumulative 5-year survival rate ( χ2=6.75, P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rate in patients with the same Child-Pugh classification between the TIPS group and the drug combined with endoscopic treatment group (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of TIPS is better than that of the drug combined with endoscopic treatment in treating EGVB. Even the long-term risk of hepatic encephalopathy of TIPS is higher, the short-term, middle-term and long-term rebleeding rate are decreased. Patients with Child-Pugh grade C do not need to avoid TIPS when choosing the treatment, the earlier the TIPS used, the better survival benefit will be obtained.

Sepsis is a serious complication of infection, and its further development may lead to multi-organ dysfunction syndrome. Sepsis cardiomyopathy is a common complication of sepsis and has been directly linked to high mortality. Although the pathogenesis of septic cardiomyopathy is not fully understood, in-depth study of the pathogenesis of septic cardiomyopathy and the identification of its potential therapeutic targets may reduce mortality in patients with sepsis. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent mode of cell death that has been shown to be involved in the pathophysiological mechanisms of many diseases. Some related studies have reported that ferroptosis may be a potential mechanism of septic cardiomyopathy. This review provides new insights into the mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction, lipid peroxidation, xc-system, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), iron metabolism and the role of ferroptosiswith septic cardiomyopathy for further research and treatment of septic cardiomyopathy.

Objective:To study the prevalence and distribution of adult thyroid diseases in urban and rural areas of Hebei Province.Methods:A multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select Renqiu City and Licun Town, Luquan City of Hebei Province as the urban and rural survey sites, respectively. Questionnaire survey, physical examination and thyroid B ultrasound examination were conducted on local permanent residents (≥ 5 years of residencies) over 18 years old. The fasting venous blood sample was collected to determine the serum thyroid function indicaters.Results:A total of 2 650 adults were surveyed, including 1 393 urban residents and 1 257 rural residents (1 357 males and 1 293 females). A total of 435 patients with thyroid diseases were diagnosed, the detection rate was 16.42%. There were seven thyroid diseases, including subclinical hypothyroidism (60.92%, 265/435), Hashimoto's thyroiditis (34.02%, 148/435), hypothyroidism (4.83%, 21/435), simple goiter (3.22%, 14/435), hyperthyroidism (2.53%, 11/435), subclinical hyperthyroidism (2.53%, 11/435), and thyroid cancer (1.84%, 8/435). The detection rates of thyroid diseases in urban and rural areas were 21.18% (295/1 393) and 11.14% (140/1 257), respectively. The detection rates of thyroid diseases in males and females were 11.42% (155/1 357) and 21.66% (280/1 293), respectively. The detection rates of thyroid diseases in 18-< 30, 30-< 40, 40-< 50, 50-< 60 and ≥60 years old were 13.46% (91/676), 14.81% (81/547), 15.42% (89/577), 20.94% (85/406) and 20.05% (89/444), respectively. There were statistically significant differences between different areas, gender and age groups (χ 2 = 48.54, 50.53, 14.68, P < 0.05). Conclusions:The detection rate of subclinical hypothyroidism in adults in urban and rural areas of Hebei Province is relatively high, followed by Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Attention should be paid to the screening, evaluation, and intervention of thyroid function among urban female populations.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of metformin/thiazolidinediones (TZDs) / glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) analogs (triple therapy) with conventional glucose-lowering therapy(conventional therapy) for patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Methods: A prospective randomized-controlled 26-week study was carried out. A total of 82 patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome were randomized to receive either triple therapy protocal or just conventional therapy, altogether with 41 cases in each group. Results: HbA_1C value was significantly reduced in triple therapy group versus the conventional therapy group [(2.23±1.75)% vs (1.48±1.59)%, P<0.05]. Values of body mass index, waist circumference, and visceral fat area were significantly reduced in triple therapy group as compared to those of conventional therapy group [(2.50±1.81 vs 0.92±1.82)kg/m², (6.75±4.92 vs 1.66±3.25)cm, (24.10±19.10 vs 10.02±20.10)cm², all P<0.01, respectively]. Control rates of HbA_1C and fasting plasma glucose for triple therapy were higher than those for conventional therapy (both P<0.05). No hypoglycemia occurred in triple therapy group. Subjects receiving triple therapy experienced more frequent gastrointestinal side effects than those in conventional therapy group (18.87% vs 3.92%, P<0.05). The most common side event was mild nausea (90%). Conclusion Combination therapy with metformin/TZDs/GLP-1 analogs had statistically significant advantages in the control of body weight, waist circumference, and visceral fat area in addition to the control of blood glucose over conventional glucose-lowering therapy in our patient cohort, it seems to be an optimized therapeutic regimen for patients with type 2 diabete and metabolic syndrome.
