Objective To observe the neuroprotective role and its mechanism of estrogens in male Sprague-Dawley rats with focal cerebral ischemia. Methods The rats were randomly divided into three groups: E2-pretreat group, E2+TAM (tamoxifen)-pretreat group and control group. The models of cerebral ischemia were maded by occlusion middle cerebral artery using an intraluminal filament method. 2 and 24 hours after focal cerebral ischemia, the neurological deficit scores and the death rate of rats were evaluated. 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) stain was used to assess the volume of infarction. Terminal transferase dUTP nick ending labeling (TUNEL) and immunohistochemistry were carried to observe neuron apoptosis and the expressions of Bcl-2, Bax and p53. Results Compared with control group, the volumes of infarction, death rates, neurological deficit scores and the numbers of neuron apoptosis both at 2 and 24 h were significantly decreased in E2-pretreated group (all (P

Objective:To explore features and relevant influencing factor of ecological executive function in children with childhood absence epilepsy (CAE).Methods:Forty children with CAE (CAE group) and 40 healthy children with physical examination (control group) from April 2017 to July 2020 in Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital were selected. The behavior rating inventory of executive function (BRIEF) parental questionnaire was used to evaluate the executive function of children. The differences of ecological executive function between 2 groups were compared.Results:The BRIEF total score, behavioral regulation index (BRI) and metacognition index (MI) in CAE group were significantly higher than those in control group: (52.03 ± 10.89) scores vs. (44.05±5.06) scores, (49.45 ± 9.93) scores vs. (43.85 ± 4.70) scores and (53.18 ± 11.24) scores vs. (44.95 ± 5.32) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Multiple stepwise regression analysis result showed that inhibit inhibition, shift, emotional control, initiation, working memory, planning, organization, monitoring, MI and total score were correlated with disease control ( P<0.01), and disease control had a negative predictive effect on them ( R2 = 0.174, 0.158, 0.234, 0.325, 0.383, 0.337, 0.378, 0.199, 0.463 and 0.435); BRI was correlated with onset age and disease control ( P<0.01 or <0.05), and onset age and disease control had a negative predictive effect on BRI ( R2 = 0.336). Conclusions:Children with CAE have ecological executive dysfunction. The control of the disease and the onset age are the main factors affecting the ecological executive function.

Objective:To investigate the expression of CXCL1 2 and CXCR4 in adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC)and to explore its re-lationship with clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of the patients.Methods:The expression of CXCL1 2 and CXCR4 in af-fected tissue was detected immunohistochemically in 62 cases of ACC.Both of the two factors and clinicalpathology factors were pro-cessed in accordance with the Kaplan-Meier method and the COX regression model.Results:The positive rates of CXCL1 2 and CX-CR4 expression were 54.8%(34/62)and 77.42%(48/62)respectively.Patients with the 2 factor expression had a shorter survival time than those without them(P<0.05).Multivariate analysis revealed that CXCR4 expression,clinical stage,histological differentia-tion and metastasis/recurrence were independent risk factors for the prognosis of ACC patients.Conclusion:The expression of CXCR4 may be correlated with the malignancy of ACC.CXCR4 expression,clinical stage,metastasis/recurrence and histological differentia-tion can indicate the prognosis of ACC patients.

Objective To assess the efficency and safety of non-peritoneal drain versus peritoneal drain after appendectomy of severe appendicitis. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-randomize controlled trials(QRCTs) were searched and identified from CNKI (1994 to Oct 2008) ,CBM (1978 to Oct 2008), VIP (1989 to Oct 2008), Wanfang Data (1997 to Oct 2008), MEDI.INE (1966 to Oct 2008), EMBASE (1974 to Oct 2008),The Cochrane Library (issue3, 2008) and SCI (1974 to Oct 2008), and related journals were also scanned. We evaluated the quality of the included studies by Jadad scale and analyzed the data by Cochrane Collaboration' s RevMan 5. 0. Results We included 15 randomized controlled trials or quais-randomized controlled trials (n = 2809). Meta analysis showed that there were statisticly differences between two groups on the incidence of wound infection [OR = 0.43,95%CI (0.29,0.65)], postoperative intestinal adhesion [OR = 0.26,95%CI(0. 18,0.37)]and the duration of hospital stay [WMD = - 0.38,95%CI(- 4.96, - 1.20)], but no difference was found on the incidence of abscesses [OR = 0. 77,95% CI(0. 39, 1. 51)]. Conclusions The current evidences show that contrast with peritoneal drain, the non-peritoneal drain can significantly reduce the incidence of wound infection and intestinal adhesion, and shorten the duration of hosipital stay. Before draw the conclution into clinical practice, further high-quality, large scale, double-blind randomized controlled trials are still needed.

A 19-year-old Chinese woman presented with progressive ulcers and recurrent fever for 1 year.The lesions originally began with purplish red maculopapules,then rapidly developed into ulcer with severe pain and spread to the trunk and extremities accompanied by intermittent fever.Histopathology revealed lymphoid infiltration of middle and large atypical T cells throughout the dermis and subcutaneous fat laver along with focal epidermotropism.The lymphoid infiltrates were positive for CD3,CD8,T-cell intercellular antigen(TLA)and T-cell receptor β(TCR-β).Gene analysis showed the rearrangement of T-cell receptor gene.According to the above findings,the patient was diagnosed as primary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic CD8-positive cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma. Combined thempy with cyclophosphamide,vincristine,prednisone and bleomycin resulted in partial remission of skin lesions,but she eventually died 22 months after the onset of disease.

Purpose:To investigate the relationship between cell apoptosis and dephosphorylated RB protein in human breast cancer. Methods:In our work,human breast cell lines (MCF-7/S,the chemosensitive cell line and MCF-7/ADR,the chemoresistent cell line)were evaluated. Chemosensitivity of two cell lines was evaluated by the MTT colorimetric assay;the expressive levels of dephosphorylated RB protein were detected with immunocytochemistry. Apoptosis rates were determined by flow cytometry(FCM). Results:ADR inhibited proliferation of chemosensitive cell line MCF-7/S ,the 50% inhibition concentration (IC 50 ) was 0.128 ?g/ml;And IC 50 of MCF-7/ADR was 10.89 ?g/ml. The chemotherapeutic sensitivity of MCF-7/S was more than that of MCF-7/ADR by 86 times . Before treatment with ADR,phosphorylated RB protein was positive in two cell lines,but dephosphorylated RB protein was negative;After treatment of different concentration ADR,when the concentration of ADR was increased,expression of dephosphorylated RB protein elevated accordingly in MCF-7/S,but no significant change in MCF-7/ADR. Apoptosis and cell cycle was detected by FCM assays shows ADR induced apoptosis of MCF-7/S more than MCF-7/ADR(P0.05).
