Objective To explore the application and nursing of retention central vein catheter in hemodialy- sis.Methods Blood vessel path was established by inserted central vein catheter on 96 patients who needed hemodialysis treatment.Results Only one patient needed to tease tube for complication.Conclusion It's safe and effective to insert central vein catheter in hemodialysis.Applying and attending exactly can extend service life of catheter and prevent complication.

Objective To separate the side population cells(SP) from breast cancer MCF-7 cell line,and observe its biological characteristics.Methods Flow cytometry and Hcechst 33342 dye efflux assay were used to isolate SP cells and non-SP cells from the MCF-7 cell line of human breast cancer.Tumorigenicity of the two subpopulations was observed by a soft agar cloning method.Results The results of FACS analysis indicated that (6.5 ± 0.4 ) ％of the MCF-7 cells were SP cells;The vitro colony formation rate of SP cells was(38.5 ±9.4)％,and higher than that of non-SP cells ( 8.4 ± 2.6 ) ％ ( t =5.34,P ＜ 0,05 ).Concluslon The SP cells sorted from MCF-7 cell line enriched tunor stem cells,which exhibited high tumorigenicity.It indicated that SP cells should play a principal role in breast cancer.

Objectives To assess the efficacy and safety of Xiaoyao Powder (Carefree Powder) in the treatment of depression using the method of systematic review of evidence-based medicine.Method Data published before December 2009 were searched from MEDLINE,Cochrane library,CNKI,VIP,CBM.We included randomize-controlled trials (RCT) testing Xiaoyao Powder against placebo or antidepressants,and Xiaoyao Powder combined with antidepressants against antidepressants alone.Two researchers collected data independently.The assessment of methodological quality was based on Cochrane handbook and the materials were analyzed with software RevMan 5.017.The outcome measure index was relative risk or difference of mean value (95% confidence interval).Results Thirty-two RCTs involving 2 253 patients were included.Involved trials published in Chinese were of low quality.In the trials of comparison between Xiaoyao Powder and placebo,only decrease of self-rating depression scale (SDS) score was not significantly different.For general clinical improvement and decrease of Hamilton rating scale for depression (HAMD) and SDS scores,Xiaoyao Powder combined with antidepressants was more effective than antidepressants alone,but the effect of Xiaoyao Powder was equal to antidepressants.No adverse effect was reported in the trials regarding Xiaoyao Powder.Conclusions Xiaoyao Powder appears to be effective for depression.However,the exact effect needs to be confirmed in well-designed large-sampled clinical trials.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of aqueous extract of Taxus chinensis var. mairei (AETC) combined Erlotnib on the growth of A549 xenograft in nude mice and its mechanism.

METHODSThe xenograft model in nude mice was established by inoculating A549 cells subcutaneously. BALB/c nude mice bearing A549 xenograft were randomly divided into six groups, i.e., the low dose Erlotinib group (A) , the standard dose Erlotnib group (B) , the low dose Erlotinib combined AETC group (C), the standard dose Erlotnib combined AETC group (D), the AETC group (E), the control group (F), 12 in each group. Different medication was performed for 7 successive weeks after 24 h. One mL blood was withdrawn and tumor tissues taken. The tumor inhibition rate was calculated. The combined effect was analyzed by Jin's Formula [Q = Ea + b/(Ea + Eb-Ea x Eb) ]. mRNA and protein expression levels of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) in xenografts were detected using real-time RT-PCR and ELISA.

RESULTSCompared with Group F, the xenograft weight was obviously lowered in Group B-E (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The q value was 0.92 in Group C and 0.96 in Group D, which was obtained by simple adding of the two drugs. Compared with Group F, EG- FR mRNA expression in Group D and E, COX-2 mRNA expression in Group A-E; Bcl-2 mRNA expression in Group B-D; COX-2 protein expression in Group B-E; Bcl-2 protein expression in Group C and D were obviously lowered with statistical difference (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSAETC combined low dose and standard dose Erlotinib had synergistic effect on tumor inhibition. Its mechanism might be associated with down-regulating mRNA and protein expression levels of COX-2 and Bcl-2.
