Patients with ischemic stroke is often accompanied by inflammtory response. Studies have suggested that toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) has induced the occurrence,development and of ischemic stroke and secondary brain injury. This article reviews the toil-like receptor 4 signal transduction pathway and its roles in ischemic stroke in order to provide certain basis for the development of TLR4-targeted medication.

0.05).The number of vaginal folds and vessle of vaginal natural layers in the Zuogui Pill large dosage group were more than those in the model group(P0.05).Conclusion Zuogui Pill,the compound herbal formula for reinforcing the function of kidney,is not influential on the uterus of ovariectomized female rats.It can delay the vaginal deadness through increasing the local blood supply of ovariectomized rats.

Objective To investigate the effects of eritoran on the expressions of the inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interferon-[ (IFN-β) mRNA in the basilar artery after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rabbits.Methods Atotal of 36 healthy adult male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly allocated into three groups:SAH (n =12),normal saline (n =12) and eritoran (n =12) groups.A SAH model was induced by injection of autologous arterial blood into cisterna magnatwice.An equal amount of cerebrospinal fluid was displaced with the saline in the normal saline group.An equal amount of autologous non-heparinized arterial blood was injected immediate after the replacementof cerebrospinal fluid in the SAH group.Eritoran 1.5 mg/kg was injected intravenously immediately after the blood injection via the cisterna magna each time in the eritoran group.The food intake and neurological deficit were assessed.The expressions of IL-1β,TNF-α and IFN-β mRNA in the basilar artery were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results The food intake scores (1.20 ± 0.41 vs.2.20 ±0.61; t =53.073,P =0.002),the neurological deficit scores (1.46 ± 0.32 vs.2.6 ± 0.08; t =306.431,P =0.001),the expressions of IL-1β (1.22 ±0.48 vs.2.38 ±0.06,P =0.000),TNF-α (1.39 ±0.07 vs.3.32 ±0.21,P =0.000) and IFN-β (1.51 ±0.08 vs.2.18 ±0.05,P =0.000) in Eritoran group were all significantly lower than those in the SAH group.Conclusions Eritoran may downregnlate the expressions of inflammatory cytokines IL-1β,TNF-α and IFN-β mRNA in the basilar artery after SAH in rabbits,increasing food intake,and improving neurological deficits.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical role of two-hour(C2)of CsA in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.METHODS:The whole blood CsA concentration of 9 patients of C0 and 12 of C2 were determined by FPIA method . RESULTS: The satisfactory immunosuppressive concentration was found as follow: C0 was 200~400 ?g?L-1and C2 was 500~700 ?g?L-1.Both C0 and C2 could predict the acute rejection and side-effects,but C2 is more effective.CONCLUSION:The factors that affect the whole blood concentration of CsA were complex. CsA blood concentration monitoring can be used to guide rational use of CsA,but C2 is more effective than C0.

Objective To determine whether the cross-sectional area (CSA)of the calf measured with MRI could stage lower ex-tremity lymphedema (LEL)secondary to gynecological cancer treatments.Methods 148 patients were enrolled in this research.116 females with unilateral LEL and 32 without LEL after gynecological cancer treatments underwent calf MRI and water displacement. Total soft tissue CSA (T),muscle CSA (M)and subcutaneous tissue CSA (S)of affected calf,and difference of T (DT),M (DM) and S (DS)between calves were obtained on MRI at mid-calf level.Volume of affected calf and difference of volume (DV)between calves were obtained by water displacement.Statistical analysis was performed to determine feasibility of MRI measurements for ac-cessing LEL.Results There were close correlations between volume and T or S of affected calf,and between DV and DT or DS of calves.The correlations of stages of LEL with T and S of affected calf as well as DT and DS were stronger than the volume of affect-ed calf and DV (P< 0.01).Multivariate analysis showed more significant differences in T and S than in volume of affected calf,and in DS than in DV between LEL stages (P< 0.05).No difference was found in volume of affected calf and in DV between stage 0 andⅠ. For staging LEL,DS showed the most profound discrimination ability among all measurable parameters.Conclusion DS of calves could be the most reliable parameter recommended for staging and early diagnosis of LEL.

Objective To study the clinical outcomes of 28 pancreatic cancer patients who underwent total pancreaticoduodenectomy.Method The clinical data of 28 patients with pancreatic cancer who underwent total pancreaticoduodenectomy from January 2009 to March 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among the 28 patients,complications occurred in 11 (39.2%) after the operation.There were 7 patient having Grade Ⅱ,4 Grade] complications.No patient died within 30 days after the operation.Fol low-up of 25 patients showed a median survival of 13.5 months.There were 24 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma,and the median survival was 13 months.Conclusions Total pancreaticoduodenectomy could not improve long-term survival but it decreased postoperative complications and improved postoperative quality of life.In selected patients,total pancreaticoduodenectomy could be a rational option.
