Objective To evaluate the efficiency of amifostine in protecting against oral and gastrointestinal mucositis in hematologic malignancies patients with high-dose total body irradiation following the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,and assess the hematologic recovery as well as the potential side effect of amifostine.Methods Thirty-two hematologic malignancies patients underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in our institution from 2012 to 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.All of them were treated with total body irradiation (700-1 200 cGy) and high-dose chemotherapy,in which 14 patients received 400 mg amifostine before radiotherapy.Prior institutional experience in 18 patients treated without amifostine was used as a historical comparison (no-amifostine group).Results Severe oral mucositis occurred in 14.3％ of patients in the amifostine group while 77.2％ in the no-amifostine group (x2 =10.62,P ＜0.05).Total parenteral nutrition was used in 21.4％ of amifostine group and 38.8％ in noamifostine group (P ＞ 0.05).The rates of grade 2 and 3 gastrointestinal mucositis were 35.7％ and 61.5％ in amifostine group,while in no-amifostine group the rates were 33.3％ and 66.7％,respectively (P ＞ 0.05).No significant difference was found in engraftnent times of granulocyte and platelet.No amifostine related side effects were observed.Conclusions The combination of amifostine and total body irradiation conditioning therapy during hematologic stem cell transplantation might reduce the severity of oral mucositis.The utilize of amifostine has no obvious effect on hematopoietic recovery and can be well tolerated.

Aim To investigate the arrest effect of diallyl disulfide(DADS) in the cell cycle of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma SW480 cell line and its molecular mechanism.Mothdes The growth inhibition effect of DADS of different concentrations on SW480 cell line was measured by MTT assay and cell counting.Phase distribution of cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry.Expression of Ubiquitin and FKBP was determined by Western blot.Results The MTT assay showed that DADS inhibited growth of SW480 cells significantly in a dose-dependent manner.Adding 25,35,50 and 70 mg?L-1 DADS for 48 hours,SW480 cell growth was suppressed by 18.67%,33.02%,49.12% and 66.86%,respectively.There were significant differences between the treated and controlled cases(P

Objective To evaluate the fludarabine instead of cyclophosphamide in modified busulfancyclophosphamide (mBuCy) regimen as a new myeloablative conditioning regimen for the treatment of acute leukemia patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods The clinic data of 45 acute leukemia patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT were analyzed.Among them,23 patients received mBuCy as conditioning regimen and 22 patients received BuFlu regimen (fludarabine 40 mg·m-2·d-1 for 5 days,instead of cyclophosphamide in mBuCy).Hematopietic engraftment,regimen-related toxicity (RRT),graft-versus-host disease (GVHD),infection condition,non relapse mortality,and overall survival were compared between the two groups.Results All patients achieved hematopoietic reconstitution and complete donor chimerism except for one patient of mBuCy group died of cerebral hemorrhage during conditioning.The incidence of RRT was no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05).In BuFlu group,the incidence of virus infection was higher (P =0.009),and the incidence of Ⅲll-Ⅳ aGVHD were 26.l ％ (6/23) and 4.5 ％ (1/22) (P =0.046) in mBuCy and in BuFlu group respectively.With a median follow up of 41 months,the incidence of non relapse mortality in mBuCy group was 17.4 ％ (4/23) and in BuFlu group was 9.1％ (2/22) (P =0.665).In mBuCy group and in BuFlu group,the relapse rates were 30.3 ％ (7/23) and 40.9 ％ (9/22) (P =0.474),the 5-year overall survival rates were (55.1±11.9) ％ and (61.4±10.8) ％ (P =0.659),and disease-free survival rates were (44.5±12.1) ％ and (22.1±12.3) ％ (P =0.747),respectively.Conclusions Fludarabine instead of cyclophosphamide in mBuCy regimen as a new myeloablative conditioning regimen has well tolerance,lower incidence of sever GVHD,satisfied overall survival,but the risk of infection and replase should be considered.

Objective The present study was designed to investigate the risk factors affecting bleeding during percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Methods The records of 218 patients with percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedure by a single surgeon were retrospectively reviewed.The mean age was 48 years ( range,19 -70).One hundred and forty six patients had staghore stones,and 7 patients had previous open or percutaneous nephrolithotomy histories.Forty-one patients had concomitant diabetes mellitus,and 89 cases had hypertension.The following factors including age,sex,BMI,diabetes status,hypertension status,stone type,calix of puncture,previous open or percutaneous nephrolithotomy history,number of accesses,size of accesses,operative time,and surgeon experience were analyzed.Univariate analysis and multivariate step regression analysis were used for statistical assessment. Results 207 procedures were successfully performed,and 11 patients failed because of difficulty to establish the accesses.Single-tract was used in 176 cases and multiple-tract was used in 31 cases.163 cases were performed via a 18 F access and 44 cases via a 24 F access.The mean operative time was 78.4 min.The overall blood transfusion rate was 7.7％,and stone type ( P =0.034),diabetes ( P =0.030),number of accesses ( P =0.019 ),size of accesses ( P =0.008) and operative time (P =0.001 ) were the risk factors affecting blood transfusion requirement.The average hemoglobin (Hb) drop after percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures was 11.2 g/L,and stone type ( P ＜ 0.001 ),diabetes ( P =0.015 ),number of accesses ( P =0.016),size of accesses ( P ＜ 0.001 ) and operative time ( P ＜ 0.001 ) were the risk factors affecting Hb drop.The following covariates including Hb drop:age,sex,BMI,previous open or percutaneous nephrolithotomy history,hypertension status,calix of puncture and surgeon experience were not risk factors affecting blood transfusion requirement and Hb drop.Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that diabetes ( OR =1.75 ),stone type ( OR =1.92),number of accesses ( OR =2.45 ),size of accesses ( OR =1.32) and operative time ( OR =1.66) significantly increased risk of bleeding. Conclusions Stone type,diabetes,number of accesses,size of accesses and operative time were the risk factors affecting blood loss during percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

Objective To investigate the epidemiology of viral infection in elderly patients to contract acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD)in Minhang district of Shanghai from 2010 to 2012,and to study the relationships between viral infection and clinical features.Methods The elderly patients (age >70 year old)with AECOPD admitted from September 2010 to November 2012 were enrolled for study.The patients who couldn't complete lung function test were excluded.The pharyngeal swabs (PS)were taken from each patient within the first 24 h after admission.Nine respiratory viruses and their subtypes from pharyngeal swabs were detected by the nested multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR)method,including influenza virus A (FluA),2009 influenza A (H1N1 )virus (09FluH1 ), influenza virus B (FluB),respiratory syncytial virus A (RSVA)and B (RSVB),human coronavirus-229E (hCOV-229E),human coronavirus-NL63 (hCOV-NL63 ),human coronavirus-OC43 (hCOV-OC43 ), human coronavirus-HKU1 (hCOV-HKU1),human parainfluenza virus 1-4 (hPIV1-4),human adenovirus (hAdV),human boca virus (hBoV),human metapneumo-virus (hMPV)and human rhinovirus (hRV). According to the PCR results,all patients were divided into positive viral infection group and negative viral infection group.The relationships between viral infection and clinical features were analyzed.Results Sixty patients were eligible for study.Of them,14 patients were found to be positive for virus infection including a triple infected patient (FluB,hRV and hROV)and 46 patients were negative for virus infection.The viral pathogens detected in the positive viral group were:9 cases of hRV (15.00%),2 cases of hPIV (3.33%),2 cases of hCOV (3.33%),2 cases of FluB (3.33%)and 1 cases of RSV (1.67%).The mortality in the positive viral group was higher than that in the negative viral group.However,the other clinical characteristics between the two groups had no significant differences. Conclusions Human rhinovirus was the most common viral pathogen in elderly patients with AECOPD.Viral infection might be associated with the prognosis.However,the patients with viral infection are lack of specific clinical characteristics,therefore,the prompt diagnosis before careful study would be difficult.

Objective: To determine the pharmacokinetics of ephedrine hydrochloride in rats after intragastric administration of Shegan mixtures. Methods:Shegan mixtures (1. 0 ml/100 g) were administered to each rat by gavage. Blood samples were collected after the administration. Plasma concentration of ephedrine hydrochloride was determined by LC-MS/MS. The pharmacokinetic parame-ters of ephedrine hydrochloride were obtained using the pharmacokinetic software. Urine and fecal samples were collected in 24 hours after the administration using metabolic cage to determine the recovery of ephedrine hydrochloride. Results: The pharmacokinetic pa-rameters of ephedrine hydrochloride were as follows:Tmax of (1. 30 ± 0. 23)h,T1/2 of (21. 17 ± 1. 35)h, Cmax of (278. 86 ± 46. 41)ng ·ml-1,AUC0~∞ of (1221.98 ±412.64)ng·ml-1 and Vc/F of (1.70 ±0.15)L. Totally 85.66% ephedrine hydrochloride could be recovered from urine in 24 hours after the administration;however, it was not detected in the fecal samples. Conclusion: Most of e-phedrine hydrochloride is excreted through kidney in 24h,therefore, Shegan mixtures can't cause the accumulation of ephedrine hydro-chloride in rats.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of kaempferol on the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of human hepatoma Bel-7402 cells and related molecular mechanism. MethodsHepatoma Bel-7402 cells cultured in vitro were randomly divided into control group and low-, middle-, and high-concentration experimental groups. The experimental groups were treated with low-, middle-, and high-concentration kaempferol (25, 50, and 100 μmol/L), and the control group was treated with an equal volume of dimethyl sulfoxide. CCK-8 assay was used to observe the effect of kaempferol on the viability of Bel-7402 cells; plate colony formation assay was used to evaluate the effect of kaempferol on cell colony formation ability; wound healing assay and Transwell chamber were used to observe the effect of kaempferol on cell migration and invasion; Western blot was used to measure the expression of apoptosis- and cycle-related proteins. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsAfter 24 hours of treatment, the cell viability was 100.00%±2.72% in the control group and 75.70%±2.42%, 62.79%±2.45%, and 43.41%±2.11%, respectively, in the low-, middle-, and high-concentration experimental groups, and compared with the control group, the experimental groups had a significant reduction in cell viability (all P＜0.05). The number of cell colonies was 923.3±35.2 in the control group and 682.7±24.4, 464.0±22.0, and 327.3±14.0, respectively, in the low-, middle-, and high-concentration experimental groups, and compared with the control group, the experimental groups had a significant reduction in cell colony formation ability (all P＜0.05). After 24 hours of treatment, the relative migration rate was 100.00%±1.11% in the control group and 63.33%±1.16%, 51.72%±3.23%, and 37.18%±2.71%, respectively, in the low-, middle-, and high-concentration experimental groups, and the number of transmembrane cells was 212.0±3.0 in the control group and 134.0±2.0, 71.0±2.0, and 34.0±1.0, respectively, in the low-, middle-, and high-concentration experimental groups; compared with the control group, the experimental groups had significant reductions in relative migration rate and number of transmembrane cells (all P＜0.05). After 48 hours of treatment, compared with the control group, the low-, middle-, and high-concentration experimental groups had a significant reduction in the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 (all P＜0.05), a significant increase in the expression of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax (all P＜0.05), and a significant reduction in the expression of C＜italic/＞yclinD1 (all P＜005). ConclusionKaempferol can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of human hepatoma Bel-7402 cells and promote the apoptosis of such cells, possibly by regulating the apoptosis proteins Bax and Bcl-2 and downregulating the expression of CyclinD1.

Objective To study the effect of citicoline on mild cognitive impairment MCI) in pa tients with middle cerebral artery stenosis (MCAS).Methods Eighty-six MCAS patients with MCI were divided into citicoline group (n=44) and control group (n=42).The patients in citicoline group were treated with citicoline (0.2 g,3 times a day) for 6 months on the basis of conventional treatment.Cerebrovascular reserve,PI,BHI and Vm between the two groups were compared by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography after treatment.MCI between the two groups was assessed according to the MoCA after treatment.Results The rate of cerebrovascular reserve,PI,BHI and Vm were significantly higher in citicoline group than in control group (13.59％± 1.16％ vs 7.61％±1.12％,P＜0.01;0.51±0.16 vs 0.58±0.12,P＜0.05;1.36±0.08 vs 0.74±0.11,P＜ 0.01;32.63％ ±2.32％ vs 16.92％ ± 1.68％,P＜0.05).The total MoCA score,attention,language,visuospatial and executive function,abstract,naming,orientation and memory were significantly higher in citicoline group than in control group (P＜0.01).Conclusion Early citicoline treatment can improve cerebrovascular reserve and alleviate MCI in MCAS patients.

The wind, phlegm, and blood stasis are important pathogenic factors of cough variant asthma in children, and they are also the pathological products in the occurrence and development of this disease. They have typical pathogenic characteristics. The main pathogenesis characteristics of cough caused by wind, phlegm and blood stasis are as follows that external wind attacks the lungs and induces internal wind, phlegm and dampness accumulates in the lungs, and the lungs fail to declare and descend, and blood stasis obstructs the collaterals and stagnation of Qi. The wind, phlegm, and blood stasis have their own pathogenic characteristics, and their cough-causing also have their own pathogenic characteristics and clinical characteristics. Based on the characteristics of wind, phlegm, and blood stasis, the application of medicine based on the differentiation of symptoms and signs can effectively prevent and treat this disease, and provide theoretical basis and treatment ideas for the treatment of cough variant asthma in children with Chinese medicine.
