Objective To analyze the National Natural Science Foundation-supported papers on oncology published by domestic authors from 2013 to 2015 and existed problems. Methods The key words in the National Natural Sci-ence Foundation-supported papers on oncology published by domestic authors from 2013 to 2015 and SCI-covered journals and Chinese institutions that published the National Natural Science Foundation-supported papers on on-cology from 2013 to 2015 were analyzed by bibliometrics. Results The number of the National Natural Science Foundation-supported scientific projects and funds, the number of the National Natural Science Foundation-sup-ported papers on oncology published by domestic authors, and the academic level of SCI-covered journals that pub-lished the National Natural Science Foundation-supported papers on oncology from Chinese authors increased year by year from 2013 to 2015 . General and medical colleges and universities with affiliated hospitals or national key laboratories were the leading force in oncology. The hot spots in oncology were focused on basic research and malig-nant tumors. Conclusion The National Natural Science Foundation plays an active role in promoting the develop-ment of oncology in China. Although it-supported papers on oncology published by domestic authors increase year by year, problems are still existed, such as imbalance of institutions that publish papers on oncology and insuffi-cient influencing power of papers published by domestic authors.

To investigate the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome and short-term prognosis of ischemic stroke.

Objective To study the changes of serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)levels before and after interventional therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),in order to find out a experimental proof that can start the anti-angiogenesis therapy.Methods Enzyme linked immunosorbentassay(ELISA)was used to detect serum levels of VEGF before transcathter arterial chemo-ebolization and in 24 hours,72 hours,7 days,14 days,30 days,after the operation,in 50 healthy individuals and 54 HCC pationts.Results Serum levels of VEGF in 54 patients with HCC were significantly higher than those in healthy individuals(P

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and atherosclerosis (AS).Methods 95 cases were divided into two groups based on prostate volume (PV):24 cases with non-BPH (PV≤20 ml) and 71 cases with BPH (PV＞20 ml).Carotid intinal medial thickness (IMT) was determined by high resolution color Doppler sonography.ResultsLevels of triglyeeride (TG),hypersensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP),ln fasting insulin [ln (FINS)],ln insulin resistance index [ln (HO)MA-IR)] and IMT in BPH group were significantly higher than in non-BPHgroup.The morbidity rate of coronary heart disease and cerebral arteriosclerosis in the BPH group enhanced as compared with non-BPH group.PV were positively correlated with ln(FINS),ln(HOMA-IR),TG and high density lipoprotein (HDL-C).Conclusions BPH is closely correlated with AS and their co-pathogenesis might be insulin resistance,inflammatory reaction and endothelial dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the relation of peripheral leukocyte total and its differential counts with urinary albumin(UAlb)in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods The 564 subjects with type 2 diabetes were stratified according to UAER levels.The total and differential leukocyte counts of peripheral blood were measured.Demographic and potential metabolic confounding factors were analyzed with multiple correlation and logistic regressions to evaluate the effects of leukocyte counts on UAER.Results With the increase of UAER,the peripheral total leukocyte,neutrophil,monocyte,eosinophil and basophil counts increased.In contrast,the lymphocyte count decreased.The differences persisted even after adjusting the influence of age,sex,duration of diabetes and other known risk factors.Conclusions Our study shows that peripheral leukocyte counts,even within the normal range,are related with UAlb in subjects with type 2 diabetes in a dose-dependent manner.

Objective To compare the levels of serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsC-RP) among subjects with normal fasting glucose plus normal glucose tolerance(NFG/NGT),IFG,IGT and IFG plus IGT,and to analyze the related risk factors. Methods 443 nondiabetic subjects aged 39-65 years were seperated into four groups:NFG plus NGT,IFG,IGT and IFG plus IGT.The serum hsC-RP levels and related factors were analyzed. Results Compared with IFG subjects,IGT subjects had higher hsC-RP levels.No differences in hsC-RP levels were found between NFG plus NGT group and IFG group, as well as between IGT group and IFG plus IGT group.Stepwise multiple regression showed that BMI and HOMA-IR were independent predictors of hsC-RP. Conclusions IGT subjects have significantly higher serum hsC-RP level than IFG subjetcts. The serum level of hsC-RP is associated with insulin resistance and the components numbers of metabolic syndrome.

Early growth response gene-1 is an immediate early response gene,a transcription factor which includ three zinc finger-like domains.Recentl studies demonstrate that early growth response gene-1 is involved in regulating cell cycle,proliferation and differentiation,and plays a critical role in injuring and repairing.Early growth response gene- 1 induces Target genes,and promotes extracellular environmental signal( such as oxygen deficit,oxidative stress,mechanical injury and cytokine)link with the complex biological responses.Intensive study to early growth respnse gene-1 will contribute to further illustrate the mechanism of the ischemia-reperfusion injury.This article summarizes from protein structure,signal transduction,biological functions and the relationship with ischemia- reperfusion injury.

The sonographie diagnosis of suhcutaneoyus nodules caused by lupg flukes in ten cases from the mountainous area of Xiangxi was reported.According to their ultrasonographic features,these nodules could be divided into three types:the substantial(one case),anechoic(two cases),and mixed type(seven cases).The sonographic characteristics,the pathotogic stages and the cytology of the subcutaneous nodules caused by lung fluke these cases were discussed.
