Background and purpose:A variety of measures are taken preoperatively to reduce the tumor size of stageⅠb2 bulky cervical cancer before surgery. Which one is safer and more effective, currently, there is no consensus. This article compared the effect in 3 different treatment methods (neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and operation) on patients with stageⅠb2 bulky cervical cancer, and provided evidence for clinical decision. Methods:Retrospective analysis the clinical date of 133Ⅰb2 bulky cervical cancer patients, who received preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and direct operation from Apr. 2006 to Oct. 2010 in our hospital. Results: The effective rates of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy group were 91.8% and 92.5%, respectively, there was no statistical difference(P>0.05). The tumor size got smaller after treatment compared with the size before treatment (P<0.05);The pathological efifciency rates were 95.56%and 97.30%, respectively, the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The bleeding volume of neoadjuvant chemo radio therapy group was significantly higher than those in the other 2 groups (158.9±50.7 vs 116.8±45.5, 123.1±30.2;P<0.05), the infection of immediate surgery group was more severe than the other 2 groups (P<0.05). The pairwise comparison of average operation time in neoadjuvant chemotherapy group, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy group, and the immediate surgery group, pairwise comparisons of neoadjuvant chemotherapy group and the immediate surgery group in bleeding, comparion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy group and neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy group on postoperative infection, and the comparison of the 3 groups on pelvic organ injury and lymphocele, had no statistical difference(P>0.05);Pathological examination showed that vascular invasion in surgery group had statistical differences than other 2 groups (P<0.05), there was no patient with positive margin in the 3 groups, and the lymph node metastasis rates also had no statistical difference (P>0.05);Besides, there were no statistical difference on vascular invasion between the 3 groups (P>0.05);And on 3-year overall survival, disease-free survival there was no statistical difference between the 3 groups (P>0.05). Conclusion:Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can effectively reduce tumor size for patients with stage Ⅰb2 bulky cervical cancer before operation, it is better than direct surgery or preoperative chemoradiotherapy in improving the resection rate, and reducing postoperative pathological positive rate, and infection. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can improve the pathological complete remission rate. The combination of radiation and chemotherapy might produce synergistic effect on huge cervical tumor, but it can’t improve the survival rate. Therefore, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is the best choice for the stageⅠb2 cervical cancer patients. Therefore, a long-term follow-up or large sample randomized controlled trials is necessary to assess the prognosis of preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy and neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.

Objective To characterize the function of human anti-BP180 single-chain Fv antibody (scFv) in vitro. Methods The IgG autoantibodies against BP180 were purified by affinity chromatography from the sera of patients with BP. The inhibitive effect of previously constructed anti-BP180 scFv on the binding of anti-BP180 IgG autoantibodies to the recombinant NC16A domain of human BP180 antigen was observed by competitive ELISA, competitive immunofluorescence assay and competitive inhibition test for complement activation. Results As ELISA revealed, the scFv significantly inhibited the binding of anti-BP180 IgG autoantibodies to the corresponding antigen (P ＜ 0.01 ), and the inhibitive effect was dose-dependent within the concentration range from 0 to 60 μg/ml. The inhibitive rate peaked at 69.50%. The deposition of anti-BP180-IgG autoantibodies in basement membrane zone and the IgG autoantibody-mediated complement C3 activation were both suppressed by the scFv of 40 μg/ml. Conclusion The genetically engineered anti-BP180 scFv has a certain inhibitive effect on the binding of BP-IgG autoantibodies to BP180 antigen and on the subsequent complement activation in vitro.

Objective To investigate the impact of preload fasting and meal replacement in patients with metabolic syndrome.Methods A total of 92 subjects with metabolic syndrome were enrolled in the study.They were assigned into the preload fasting group (PFG),the meal replacement group (MRG),and the control group (CG) for 12-weeks intervention.Special dietary with 100 kcal was provided 30 min before each meal in the PFG,and while in the MRG the same dietary was taken just before each meal and the amount of meal was reduced appropriately.The subjects in CG took meals as usual.Body mass index,waist circumference,and insulin resistance were assessed.Satiety situation was investigated by the scale.Results After 12 weeks,improvement were found in fasting insulin(-3.29 mU/L) and waist circumference (-4.04 cm) in the PFG and significant difference was shown compared to the CG (P＜0.05).Satiety index in the PFG was the most significant among the three group.Conclusion Preload fasting is helpful in improving insulin resistance,reducing waist circumference,and enhancing satiety.

Objective To investigate the effects of berberine on tumor-associated macrophages (TAM)and the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)of intestinal polyps in Apc(Min/+) mice.Methods A total of 20 Apc(Min/+) mice,four weeks old,were equally divided into the control group and the berberine group,10 in each group.The mice of the control group drank plain water,while the mice of berberine group drank water with 0.1 % berberine.After 12 weeks,all the mice were sacrificed.The intestine and colon were isolated,and the numbers of polyps were counted.The expression of F4/80,inducible nitric oxide synthase-2 (iNOS),macrophage mannose receptor (MR)and COX-2 was detected by immunohisto-chemistry method.The relative expression of COX-2 at protein level was measured by Western blotting. The t test was performed for comparison between two independent groups.Results The total number of intestinal polyps,the number of small intestinal polyps and the number of colon polyps of the berberine group (11 .50±2.05 ,10.50±1 .77 and 1 .00±0.46,respectively)were all less than those of the control group (30.63±1 .69,28.00±2.00 and 2.63±0.74,respectively),and the differences were statistically significant (t=16.727,16.952 and 3.162,P =0.001 ,0.001 and 0.010,respectively).The percentage of F4/80 positive cells in the stroma of polyps of the berberine group ((17.40 ±4.23 )%)was less than that of the control group ((31 .24±6.34)%),and the difference was statistically significant (t =5 .327, P =0.043).The percentage of iNOS positive cells in the stroma of polyps of the berberine group ((7.43± 1 .78 )%) was higher than that of the control group ((2.72±0.68)%), and the difference was statistically significant (t=7.335 ,P =0.004).The percentage of MR positive cells in stroma of polyps of the berberine group ((19.52±1 .54)%)was less than that of the control group ((12.63±0.68)%),and the difference was statistically significant (t=5 .634,P =0.016).The percentage of COX-2 positive cells in stroma of polyps of berberine group ((3.38 ± 0.51 )%)was less than that of the control group ((7.60±0.57 )%),and the difference was statistically significant (t = 7.234,P = 0.001 ).The relative expression of COX-2 at protein level of polyps of the berberine group was lower than that of the control group. Conclusion Berberine may take the role in inhibiting the growth of intestinal polyps in Apc(Min/+) mice through interfering the differentiation of TAM in polyps and suppression the expression of COX-2.

Objective To investigate the related factors of early adverse outcomes in young patients with ischemic stroke.Methods From January 2006 to June 2016,685 young patients (18-45 years old) with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neurology,Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command were enrolled retrospectively.They were diagnosed as the first onset with head CT or MRI.According to the modified Rankin scale (mRS) at 90 d,the patients were divided into a favorable outcome (mRS 0-2) group (n=554) and a poor outcome (mRS 3-6) group (n=131).The collection of clinical data were completed on the day of admission,including the risk factors for cerebrovascular disease (oral contraceptives,etc),the National Institutes of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) score on admission,the mean systolic blood pressure (>140 mmHg was analyzed) and laboratory examination.The stroke subtypes were classified with the trial of org 10172 in acute stroke treatment (TOAST) classification criteria.Univariate analysis was used to analyze the difference of clinical data between groups,and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for early poor outcomes.Results Compared with the favorable outcome group,the patients with the ratio of mean systolic pressure >140 mmHg in the first 3 d after hospitalization (37.4% [49/131] vs.21.7% [120/554],χ2=14.131),NIHSS score on admission (10.0 [7.0,14.0] vs.1.5 [0,3.0],Z=-15.300),white blood cell count (7.5 [6.0,9.0] ×109/L vs.6.8 [5.7,8.2] ×109/L,Z=-3.157),fasting glucose (4.9 [4.6,6.0] mmol/L vs.4.8 [4.4,5.3] mmol/L,Z=-2.726),higher fibrinogen level (2.8 [2.3,3.4] g/L vs.2.6 [2.3,3.2] g/L,Z=-2.018,blood uric acid level (291[220,346] mmol/L vs.315 [261,374] mmol/L,Z=-3.443),and plasma albumin level (43.1[40.0,45.9] g/L vs.44.8 [42.4,47.4] g/L,Z=-4.708) were decreased in the poor outcome group.There were significant differences between the two groups (all P<0.05).TOAST classification comparison:the proportion of the patients with cardioembolism in the poor outcome group was higher than that in the favorable outcome group.There was significant difference between the two groups (6.9% [9/131] vs.2.5% [14/554];χ2=4.893,P<0.05).There were no significant differences in the remaining clinical data between the two groups (all P>0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher NIHSS score on admission (OR,1.474,95%CI 1.378-1.576,P<0.01),the mean systolic pressure >140 mmHg at the first 3 d after admission (OR,2.134,95%CI 1.210-3.764,P=0.009) and the cardioembolism(OR,4.902,95%CI 1.073-22.222,P=0.040) were the risk factors for early poor outcome,and the elevated plasma albumin level (OR,0.902,95%CI 0.850-0.956,P=0.001) was a protective factor of early favorable outcome.Conclusion The higher NIHSS score at admission,the cardioembolism and the increased mean systolic blood pressure in the first 3 d after admission may result in early poor outcome in young patients with ischemic stroke,while the elevated plasma albumin level is beneficial to the early outcome.

Objective To investigate the composition of pathogens from cerebrospinal fluid culture in pediatric intensive care unit,and to explore the distribution of the pathogens,antibiotic resistance profile,infection source and prognosis.Methods The results of cerebrospinal fluid culture in pediatric intensive care unit from January 2012 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Bacteria identification and antimicrobial susceptibility were assayed by Vitek Compat Ⅱ system from Bio Mrieux Company.Some bacterial strains were tested by disk diffusion method or E-test.Results A total of 982 cerebrospinal fluid were tested during research period,and 78 were positive with positive rate of 7.9%.A total of 81 strains of pathogens were isolated,there were 46 strains of gram negative bacteria (56.8%) and 35 strains of gram positive bacteria (43.2%).The top three bacteria were Acinetobacter baumannii(28.4%),coagulase negative Staphylococcus(19.8%),and Escherichia coli(13.6%).The resistance to antibiotics was quite different,manifesting muti-resistance or extensively drug resistance.Acinetobacter baumannii was the predominant specy of gram negative bacteria,which was highly resistant to meropenem and cephalosporins and highly sensitive to tigecycline.Coagulase negative Staphylococcus was the predominant specy of gram positive bacteria,which was highly resistant to cefazolin and ampicillin and highly sensitive to linezolid and vancomycin.Conclusion Gram negative bacteria are the main species of cerebrospinal fluid culture in pediatric intensive care unit.Acinetobacter baumannii is the major pathogen,which was highly resistant to meropenem and cephalosporins.

Objective:To explore and discuss the differences of pregnancy contents and inform formats in in-formed consent form ( ICF) for the drug clinical trial between China and foreign countries. Methods:We collected Chinese and foreign ICFs for drug clinical trial that had been audited by the Ethics Committee of the third Xiangya Hospital for the past five years. Based on the relevant domestic and foreign law, we concluded the element stand-ards and inform formats about pregnancy inform. By analyzing the integrity of the whole elements, the inform rate of every element and the using rate of every inform format, we compared the differences of pregnancy contents and in-form formats between Chinese ICFs and foreign ICFs. Results:The total number of ICFs was 177 in this study, in-cluding 107 Chinese ICFs and 70 foreign ICFs. The integrity rate of pregnancy in Chinese ICFs was statistically lower than them in foreign ICFs (19% vs. 56%, P=0. 000). Compared with foreign ICFs, the low informed ele-ments were the study of the pregnancy risk (32% vs. 73%, P=0. 000), the pregnancy test during the following-up period (33% vs. 56%, P=0. 002) and the measurements for contraception (22% vs. 53%, P=0. 000). Conclusion:The integrity level of pregnancy content in Chinese ICFs was lower than that of the foreign ICFs. And the three elements including pregnancy risk study, pregnancy test during the following-up period and measure-ments for contraception was obviously defected. Pregnancy informing forms of informed consent in China was inferi-or to abroad.

Objective:To explore the application effect of psychosomatic comfort based on double C theory in improving the psychological state, comfort level and sleep quality of patients after choledocholithiasis surgery.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 120 patients with choledocholithiasis who underwent surgical treatment in Department of General Surgery in Fuyang People's Hospital of Anhui Province were selected as the research subjects from March 2020 to December 2021. The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by odd-even grouping method, with 60 cases in each group. The control group was given routine nursing intervention mode, while the observation group was given the psychosomatic comfort model based on double C theory. The intervention effects of the two groups were compared by using Inpatient Psychological Scale (IPS) and the Chinese version of General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ) .Results:Before intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in IPS and GCQ scores between the two groups ( P>0.05) . After the intervention, the IPS score of the observation group was lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The GCQ score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The psychosomatic comfort based on double C theory is helpful to improve the postoperative psychological state of patients with choledocholithiasis and improve the comfort of them.

Exosomes are vesicles with a double globular membrane of lipids that can be secreted by a variety of cells, including stem cells. Exosomes have unique biological characteristics and irreplaceable powerful functions which play an important role in intercellular communication. The various cytokines, signal proteins, lipids and regulatory nucleic acids contained in stem cell exosomes can play a protective role against the injury of kidney, liver, heart, blood vessels and nerves. Stem cell exosomes delay the process of intervertebral disc degeneration by inhibiting the apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells and increasing the synthesis of extracellular matrix, etc. The mechanism of its role is mainly through miRNA and related signaling pathways. Exosomes contain complex components. Although the mechanism of action of exosomes in intervertebral discs has been preliminarily explored, the components contained in exosomes are complex and the specific situation has not been fully understood, which still needs further study. In this review, the characteristics and functions of stem cell exosomes, extraction, identification and storage methods, the impacttovarious other tissues, as well as the effects on intervertebral discs and their mechanisms were elaborated in order to provide a basis for the study of intervertebral disc degenerative diseases.
