Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of testosterone replacement therapy in patients with male late-onset hypogon-adism and Mild-to-moderate benige prostate hyperplasia. Methods Forty-three patients diagnosed as male late-onset hypogonadism and Mild-to-moderate benige prostate hyperplasia were selected,of which 28 patients were assigned to Eleven acid testosterone (40 mg each time, after a meal,2 times per day) ,other patients were in the control group. The patients were followed for 12 months and their data about digital rectal inspection,size of the prostate,IPSS score,maximum urinary flow rate ( Qmax) ,AMS clinical symptom score,serum testosterone level, serum PSA level,RBC hematocrit ( HCT) ,and other indicators were collected. Results Twelve months After testosterone replacement thera-py,both the prostate volume of treated and control groups were not significantly changed(P>0. 05). IPSS score and maximum urinary flow rate in treatment group were improved significantly(P<0. 05),but the control group showed no statistically significant changes(P>0. 05). Baseline AMS clinical symptom score and blood testosterone level were similar between treatment and control group (P >0. 05). Twelve months after treatment,the blood testosterone level of the treatment group reached the normal range,and the AMS clinical symptom scores de-creased significantly (P<0. 05). However,none indexes of control group significantly changed after the treatment (P>0. 05). Conclusion Testosterone replacement therapy in patients with male late-onset hypogonadism and the Mild-to-moderate benige prostate hyperplasia is safe and effective.

Objective To investigate efficiency of centipede extracts on apoptosis induction, proliferation inhibition to Human A549 cell line and growth suppression of subcutaneous transplanted sarcoma in nude mice. Methods Centipede extracts prepared by enzymolysis and acetone precipitation methods were used to treat human lung cancer A549 cell line. Proliferation inhibition was evaluated by MTT assay and half inhibit concentration (IC50) was calculated. Cell morphological change and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry and Hoechst stain. The subcutaneous transplanted sarcoma models were prepared with nude mice and randomly divided into model group, control group and centipede extracts group, with 10 mice in each group. Changes of tumor volume, quality and anti-tumor rate were observed.Results In vitro experiment, proliferation of A549 cells was inhibited with dose-dependency and IC50 value was 0.603 mg/mL. The G0/G1 phase of cells was down regulated and G2/M and S phase cells were up-regulated. The apoptotic character cells were been found by Hoechst stain. In vivo experiment, the tumor weight and volume decreased significantly compared with model control group, with statistical significance (P<0.01).Conclusion The centipede extracts shows dose-dependent anti-proliferative effect on A549 cells, which can induce apoptosis by arresting A549 cells at G2/M phase and suppressing growth of subcutaneous transplanted sarcoma of lung cancer in nude mice.

Objective To study predicting results of the back propagation (BP)neural network model for hematoma enlargement (HE)in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods The clinical data of 128 patients with cerebral hemorrhage admitted to the 309th hospital of People′s Liberation Army from January 2011 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The Matlab 7. 14 software was used to achieve BP neural network model for predicting hematoma enlargement within 24 hours in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (HE ≥6. 0 ml and HE ≥12. 5 ml). The mean square error (MSE)of the model and the accuracy of the overall prediction were calculated. The receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn for predicting HE. Results When the BP neural network predicted HE ≥6. 0 ml and HE ≥12. 5 ml,the mean square deviations of the training set,validation set,and test set were 0. 061, 0. 143,0. 052 and 0. 023,0. 057,and 0. 065,respectively. The best fitting performance verification of hematoma enlargement was as follows:≥ 6. 0 ml for network training 11 times and the error value 0. 224;≥12. 5 ml for network training 20 times,and the error value 0. 057. The overall accuracies of predicting HE ≥6. 0 ml and HE ≥12. 5 ml were 92. 2% (118/ 128)and 96. 9% (124/ 128)respectively. Conclusion The BP neural network model have no special limitation for data. It can accurately fit the hematoma expansion model of cerebral hemorrhage.
