2.Big osteoma of ethmoid sinus.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2014;28(7):499-500
Sinus osteoma is a common nasal and sinus disease, while the clinical cases of osteoma with a diameter greater than 30 millimeter are rarely seen. This paper reports a case of a 39-years-old male patient discovered with one-year long swelling pain in the right eye. The patients' right eye was mildly prominent and he suffered from hypopsia and diplopia. After CT scanned, he have ethmoid osteoma been discovered, besides, the right media rectus compression and orbital apex compression and consequent pathologically were diagnosed. The solid tumor ranged widely from the anterior skull base to the superior and interior orbital walls,and thus deprived the patient's complete surgical resection. As an attempt to prevent complications, most parts of the tumors were sur gically removed.

4.Clinical study on nutriti0nal interventi0n in patients with Alzheimer(s) disease
Parenteral & Enteral Nutrition 2017;24(2):75-77
Objective:To explore the effects of nutritional intervention on the nutritional status,cognitive function and activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD).Methods:90 AD patients were randomly divided into the control group and the intervention group,with 45 cases in each group.Patients in the control group received anti-dementia drugs,and patients in the intervention group additionally received TPF-T as the oral nutritional supplement.The nutritional status and nutritional biochemical indicators,cognitive function and ADL of two groups were evaluated when enrolled and 6 months later after the treatment.Results:After 6 months'treatment,the nutritional status,MMSE,ADL scores and nutritional indicators of patients in the intervention group were significantly improved compared to the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion:Nutritional intervention can effectively improve the nutritional status,cognitive function and ADL of patients with dementia.
5.Guttural lipoma: 1 case report.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2014;28(15):1178-1179
This paper reports a case of female patient with throat discomfort and coughs for several months. She was discovered by laryngoscopy with a pale yellow lump in the left aryepiglottic fold and pyriformin with the size of 2.0 cm x 1.6 cm. MRI fat suppression sequence exhibited low signal, and the lump was removed by laryngoscope surgery under general anesthesia. Pathological examination showed lipoma. Five years postoperative, her throat discomfort reappeared the laryngoscopy examination showed a pale yellow lump with the size of 2.0 cm x 1.0 cm in the front wall of left side of pyriform. Her MRI fat suppression sequence exhibited low signal again, and the lump was removed by laryngoscope surgery under general anesthesia. Pathological examination showed lipoma and immunohistochemistry proved S100 positive. The patient was discharged a week postoperative and no recurrence was found in the follow up visits in the following year.

6.A case of selective embolization in treatment of advanced tonsillar cancer hemorrhage.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2014;28(17):1359-1360
This paper reports a case of recurrence of tonsillar cancer on the right 6 months after radiotherapy with pharyngeal hemorrhage for 4 days and aggravation in the next day. The pharyngeal hemorrhage was severe in the case and the maximum of single amount of bleeding was approximately 200 ml. The examination showed active bleeding on the ulcer with a diameter of 2 cm in the right tonsil and the depth of 1 cm. After repeated compression hemostasis proved to be invalid, selective embolization was applied on the patient and the symtoms of pharyngeal hemorrhage disappeared without complications. The patient was discharged after 2 weeks of observation without any recurrence of hemorrhage.

Objective Vessel injury provokes the release of angiotensin II that influences the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). T lymphocytes produced, interleukin 10 is of immunoregulatory function. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of recombinant human interleukin 10 (rhIL 10) on the proliferation of isolated rat vascular smooth muscle cell and the activity of p44/p42 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) promoted by angiotensin II. Methods Rat aortic VSMCs were cultured and treated with rhIL 10 or angiotensin II, and then co treated with rhIL 10 and angiotensin II. The proliferation was quantified by colormetric assay. The p44/p42 MAPK activity was evaluated by the immunobloting technique using anti p44/p42 phospho MAPK antibody. Results Compared with control group, angiotensin II stimulated significantly VSMCs proliferation(1 311?0 201 vs 0 781?0 236, P 0 05), but significantly inhibited VSMCs proliferation induced by angiotensin II at a dose of 1,10,100 ng/ml (0 984?0 172 , 0 932?0 134 , 0 784?0 097 vs 1 311?0 201, P
8.Recombinant Baculoviruses as Mammalian Cell Gene-delivery Vectors:a Review
China Biotechnology 2006;0(01):-
The baculovirus expression system has been used extensively for the expression of recombinant proteins in insect cells.Recently,recombinant baculoviruses containing mammalian cell-active promoter element have been used to transduce a broad spectrum of primary and established mammalian cells,including non-hepatic cells.Recombinant baculoviruses have been used successfully for transient or stable gene delivery in mammalian cells in vitro,while the efficiency of delivering gene in vivo is inhibited obviously by complements,but efforts have been made to overcome the problems,for instance,VSV-G-pseudotyped baculoviruses display complement resistance.The mechanism of the transduction is still not clearly understood,though many researches have been done.The baculovirus is able to replicate only in insect cells,but it is incapable of initiating replication cycle in mammalian cells,which guarantees high biosafety of this gene delivery system.In addition,this system is easily manipulated and able to carry large inserts.These attributes will undoubtedly lead to the increased application and continued development of this system for highly effective gene delivery into mammalian cells.

Objective To investigate effects of ginkgo biloba extract(GBE) and tanshinoneⅡ A preventative administration against cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury in gerbils.Methods Cerebral iscthemia and reperfu- sion injury were made by 10 minutes'occlusion of bilateral carotid arteries followed by 24 hours' reperfusion in ger- bils.GBE,tanshinone Ⅱ A,nimodipine or GBE plus tanshinone Ⅱ A were administrated intragastrically 3 days prior to and at the day of ischemia and reperfusion.Effects of experimental agents on mortality,stroke index,brain body index,water content in brain hemisphere,level of SOD activity and MDA in cerebral tissue were measured,and pathological changes of cortex and hippoearnpal CA1 sector were observed.Results GBE 48 mg/kg and tanshinone Ⅱ A 25mg/kg preventive administration could significantly reduce the stroke index,brain body index,and water in brain hemisphere,together with a reduced mortality of cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injuried gerbils.The two a- gents could also significantly improve the activity of SOD,reduce the level of MDA in cerebral tissue and the injury in cortex and hippocampal CA1 sector.Moreover,combined treatment of these two agents demonstrated more signifi- cant effects.Conclusion GBE,tanshinone Ⅱ A and combined therapy of these two agents may protect cerebral func- tion from ischemia and reperfusion injury through reducing the cerebral edema and attenuating the injury of oxygen free radicals.
