1.Blood purification treatment for acute paraquat poisoning
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2015;22(8):571-573
Paraquat is a commonly used herbicide,which can cause acute poisoning due to misusage or suicide.The mortality of acute paraquat poisoning is high,the prognosis is poor,and there is no specific an-tidote for the poisoning.Most scholars believe that early blood purification is the first choice for the treatment of acute paraquat poisoning.However,there is not a unified standard about what kind of blood purification methods and the specific parameters should be taken for the different periods of paraquat poisoning.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application of osteotomy template manufactured via 3D printing technique in bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO).
METHODSThe patient group consisted of 32 patients (17 males and 15 females) with mandibular hypoplasia who underwent a BSSO setback (Hunsuck modification; 64 splits). The mean age at the time of surgery was 23.5 years (range 1.9-35 years). All patients were scanned using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to create a 3D model of the mandibular, and the osteotomy template of the inner horizontal ramus of mandible bone incision was manufactured via 3D printing technique. All splits underwent operation with or without the osteotomy template by either a young doctor (attending doctor) or a doctor with extensive orthognathic surgery experience (chief doctor). The time it took to perform the mandible bone incision of the inner horizontal ramus of each group was recorded. Postoperative CBCT scan was performed, and the lingual split scale was used to assess the effect of the operation.
RESULTSPrimary healing of incisions was observed in all patients, and no serious complications occurred. The time it took to perform the mandible bone incision of the inner horizontal ramus was significantly different in the four groups (F=30.059, P<0.05), and it was longer in the group of the attending doctor without osteotomy template than in the other three groups (P<0.05). No significant difference was observed in the other groups (P>0.05). Although all splits (n=64) were performed according to the standardized protocol, only 59.38% (38/64) of the fracture lines run according to the Hunsuck's description. By contrast, only 21.88% (14/64) run through the mandibular canal and 18.75% (12/64) was split. The database was analyzed using crosstabs and via Fisher exact test. The split pattern was influenced by the application of an osteotomy template (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe application of osteotomy template manufactured via 3D printing technique in BSSO was effective, which enabled the young doctor to complete the operation faster and with good results.

Objective To investigate the anticancer effect of oxymatrine on cervical cancer cell line (HeLa). Methods MTT assay was used to detect the anti-proliferative effect of oxymatrine.Transwell chamber was used to detect the anti-metastatic effect of oxymatrine.Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9.Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of MMP-2,MMP-9,AKT,p-AKT and GADPH. Results We found that application of oxymatrine significantly inhibited the growth of HeLa cells at the concentration above 0.8 mg/mL.We also found that oxymatrine (0.1,0.2 and 0.4 mg/mL)inhibited the invasion of HeLa cells under cytotoxic dose,which was (77.07±20.43)%,(53.95±18.17)% and (20.35±11.20)% of cells that migrated through the matrigel when compared with those of non-oxymatrine treatment group (P<0 .0 5 ). Further research found that oxymatrine (0.1,0.2 and 0.4 mg/mL)could reduce the expression of MMP-2 at the mRNA level,i.e.(82.76±8.71)%,(39.51±12.79)% and (21.53±5.38)% of the expression level when compared with that of non-oxymatrine treatment group (P<0 .0 5 ).The protein expression level of MMP-2 in 0 .4 mg/mL group was (64.69 ±16.52)% of non-oxymatrine treatment group (P<0.05).The phosphorylation level of AKT in 0.4 mg/mL group was (41.27±7.13)% of non-oxymatrine treatment group (P<0.05).Conclusion Oxymatrine can inhibit the invasion of HeLa cells by reducing the expression of MMP-2 via inhibiting the activity of AKT signal pathway.All together,our findings bring new insights into the mechanism of the anticancer effects induced by oxymatrine treatment.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most aggressive and lethal human cancers. Cur-rent studies on the relationship between complicated type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and PDAC prognosis have demonstrated inconsis-tent results. The present study aimed to determine the relationship between complicated T2DM and the clinicopathological characteris-tics of PDAC, and evaluate whether complicated T2DM is a significant predictor for overall survival in patients with resectable PDAC. Methods: In this study, clinicopathological characteristics were observed in 136 patients who underwent surgery for PDAC at the Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University between January 2009 and February 2011. The relationship between complicated T2DM and overall survival of PDAC patients was analyzed using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:The median age of pa-tients was 60 years (range: 35-80 years). Among the 136 patients, 76(55.9%) were male. The prevalence of complicated T2DM was 27.9%in 136 PDAC cases. Preexisting T2DM was not associated with any of the clinicopathological characteristics (all P>0.05). Uni-variate analysis showed that complicated T2DM (P=0.045), maximum diameter (P=0.011), histological differentiation (P=0.013), pT stage (P=0.034), vessel invasion (P=0.032), and pTNM stage (P=0.030) were significantly associated with the overall survival of PDAC patients. The median overall survival time was 14.2 months for T2DM patients, and 18.8 months for non-T2DM patients. In mul-tivariate analysis, complicated T2DM [hazard ratio (HR), 1.873;95%confidence interval (CI), 1.187-2.954;P=0.007], poorly differenti-ated tumor (HR, 2.647;95%CI, 1.413-4.957;P=0.002), and maximum diameter≥4.0 cm (HR, 1.699;95%CI, 1.094-2.640;P=0.018) were the independent predictors associated with poor overall survival. Conclusion:Complicated T2DM was associated with poor prog-nosis. It could be used as a prognostic predictor in patients with resectable PDAC. If confirmed, these findings may provide a novel ap-proach for individualized adjuvant therapy.
