Operation is always thought to be the soul way to cure hepatocelluar carcinoma(HCC),but there are only 30% patients who have the opportunity to receive the operation.Transcatheter hepatic arterial cheomoembolization is the most extensive non-surgery approach to treat hepatocelluar carcinoma which also has a lot of shortcoming and limitation.It is common sense that enhancement of effectiveness of liver cancer therapy largely depends on the combined therapy.

At present, the level of diagnosis and treatment of early gastrointestinal cancer has a larger gap between China and developed countries. In recent years, the advent of new endoscopic imaging techniques has improved the detection rate of early gastrointestinal cancer. Along with this, endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) enables radical resection for early cancer. In this article, we discuss how to improve the level of endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early gastrointestinal cancer.

Fu-Zheng Pei-Ben therapy, as a major therapeutic principle, has become the main guiding thought of cancer therapy currently. Through the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) history, Fu-Zheng Pei-Ben thera-py is one of the most important therapies . As early as the Spring and Autumn Period , the importance of vital qi has been recorded in the Huang-Di Nei-Jing. After that, TCM doctors have enriched the connotation and extension of the Fu-Zhe ng therapy . Until modern times , Professor Liu Jiaxiang applied Fu-Zhe ng therapy to the treatment of cancer . This paper explained the sources of Fu-Zhe ng cancer therapy through the analy-sis of its history in order to provide a reference to deepen the theoretical studies in the diagnosis and treat-ment of cancer in the future .

Background The circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs)play an important role in postnatal vasculogenesis and restoration of endothelial injury.Previous investigation illustrated that a reduced ocular blood flow and vascular dysfunction caused by endothelial dysfunction plays a role in the pathogenesis of glaucoma.However,endothelial system accommodation is accomplished with the circulating EPCs.Objective The present trail was to investigate EPCs change in patients with primary acute angle-closure glaucoma (PACG)and explore the role of EPCs in the pathogenesis of PACG. MethodsA prospective cohort study was designed.Thirty patients with PACG were enrolled in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital as PACG group,and 20 normal subjects served as control group.Periphery bloodsamples were obtained fromall the patients and thenstained with saturating concentrations of monoclonal antibodies,FITC-conjugated anti-CD34 and CD133 mAb.EPCs identified by CD34,CD133 were enumerated by flow cytometry,and the correlation between EPCs change and its relative factors was analyzed.Informed consent was obtained from each subject before any medical procedure. Results No significant differences were found in age,gender,vascular-related risk factor,blood biochemical indicators between PACG group and normal contol group(P＞0.05 ),but a higher intraocular pressure( IOP)was displayed in PACG group compared with normal control group ( P =0.00 ).The numbers of EPCs were ( 48 ± 22 ) cells/ml in PACG group and ( 65 ± 20 )cells/ml in normal control group with a significant difference between them (P=0.004).In PACG group,the numbers of EPCs were(60± 19 )cells/ml and (34 ±7 )cells/ml respeetively in phase 1 and phase 3 of optical nerve damage (Z=-3.015,P=0.002 ).There was a negative correlation between EPCs numbers and baseline IOP within a certain range( r=-0.835,P＜0.05 ).However,no obvious correlations were seen between EPCs numbers and blood lipid Level,blood glucose level or glaucoma course ( r =0.343,P =0.227 ; r =-0.203,P =0.419 ; r =0.198,P =0.610 ).The EPCs numbers in PACG patients with cardiovascular disease were(56±22)cells/ml and that of without PACG were (35± 15 ) cells/ml( P =0.005 ). ConclusionsThe numbers of EPCs decrease in PACG patient.These results imply that EPCs might play role during the restore of the optical nerve damage in PACG eye.

Objective To study the effects of heart ischemia reperfusion on conductive function of atrioventricular node (AVN) in rabbits. Methods Animal models of ischemia reperfusion of AVN were established by ligating and reopening the right coronary artery of rabbits. A total of 60 adult rabbits were divided into control groups ( n =10), right coronary artery occlusion group ( n =10), and ischemia reperfusion groups with ligation of the right artery occlusion for 10, 30, 60 and 120 min respectively ( n =10 for every subgroup). The hemodynamics, His bundle electrography and epicardial electography were carried out and recorded. Results After occlusion of right coronary artery, 94.8% animals in experimental groups were found to have prolonged atrial His interval (AH) ( P

Objective To study the effect of ovarian estrogen on the expression of estrogen receptor beta (ER beta) of the basal forebrain of mice. Methods Ovariectomized (OVX) mice were used as animal model, and nickel ammonium sulfate intensified immunohistochemical SP technique was used to detect the changes of ER beta expression in the basal forebrain. Results The expression of ER beta in the basal forebrain of mice decreased dramatically, after OVX decreased to the lowest levels at 3 d after OVX, increased gradually, and recovered to normal level 20 d later. Conclusion Ovarain estrogen can regulate the expression of ER ? of the murine basal forebrain, indicating that estrogen, via ER ?, can regulate the nerous structure and function of the basal forebrain, which may be the mechanism of estrogen replacement therapy on Alzheimer′s brain.

The rate of stroke has been rising year by year and become the world's major cause of mortality and disability. The high rate of disability did not only bring economical burden to society and family, but also induce psychological damage to patients. Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a most common mental complications of stroke. In recent years, More and more attentions have been paid to PSD. This article reviewed the cause and mechanism of PSD and the treatment with Chaihu Shugan Powder on it.

Objective To sum up the experience of a large-scale aero transportation of mass casualties away from the quake-hit region to distant cities,and to provide reference for medical transportation of mass casualties.Method The study analyzed the aero medical transportation of 3 482 casualties from quake-hit region treated in West China Hospital of Siehuan University and other seven hospitals in Sichuan Province to other provinces from 22 May 2008 to 3 June 2008.The influencing factors of aero medical transportation were discussed,including selection standard of patients,preparation of staff and mcterials before transportation,management during transportation.The selection standards were:patients with stable condition after orthopedic operation and craniocerebral operation,and patients with passage of gas by anus after abdominal operation 5 days.Results Total of 3 482 casualties were transported in 99 times to 19 cities including Guangzhou,Shanghai,Shenyang,only 8 victims felt a little bit uncomfortable during flight,and recovered soon after management.Conclusions Total of 3 482 patients were safely transported.Strict selection of patients,comprehensive planning and monitoring,and psychotherapy are important for aero medical transfer.
