Objective:To retrospectively investigate the efficiency of Jinlong capsule combined with transarterial chemoemboli-zation for the treatment of advanced pancreatic carcinoma. Methods: Sixty advanced pancreatic carcinoma patients between January 2009 and May 2013 were randomly assigned into the experimental group (n=30, Jinlong capsule combined with transarterial chemoem-bolization) and the control group (n=30, transarterial chemoembolization). Both groups were subjected to superselective pancreas artery chemotherapy with GEMZAR at a dose of 1.0 g/m2. Results:The overall response rate (CR+PR) was 53.3%and the control rate was 70%(CR+PR+SD) (CR 0, PR 16, SD 5) in the experimental group, whereas those in the control group were 36.7%and 56.7%(CR 0, PR 11, SD 6), respectively. The short-term therapeutic efficacy was higher in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). No significant difference in adverse reactions, including digestive reactions and myelosuppression, almost I-II degree, was observed be-tween the two groups (P>0.05). No significant difference in the Karnofsky performance status was observed between the two groups af-ter the treatment (P<0.05). The 24-month survival rate of the experimental group was 50.0%, whereas that of the control group was 33.3%(P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of Jinlong capsule combined with transarterial chemoembolization for the treatment of advanced pancreatic carcinoma showed good clinical effects. The patients also showed good tolerance to this treatment.

Objective The study aimed to explore the relationship between AIF related pathway and the inju-ring of cultured SGNs (spiral ganglion neurons)by glutamate toxicity,and to find AIF expression and distribution changes in SGNs.Methods SGNs of 40 newborn rats within 3 day were obtained and cultured in vitro.Cultured cells were divided into four groups:the normal control group,10 mM,20 mM and 40 mM glutamate injured group, separately.After 48 h hours culturing,optical microscopy,immune fluorescence staining and real-time fluores-cence quantitative PCR were used to observe the morphology,AIF distribution,and AIF,calpain,Caspase3 expres-sion changes in SGNs in vitro.TUNEL was used to verify the cell apoptosis.ResuIts Noticeable morphological chan-ges and cell apoptosis were occurred in 20 mM glutamate group,with AIF nuclear translocation.AIF gene expression was significantly higher than normal after glutamate administration (P<0.05);moreover,calpain gene expression increased(P<0.05);but caspase3 expression was not statistically significantly increased in all glutamate treated groups (P>0.05). ConcIusion In the process of cultured SGNs injured by glutamate,AIF participated in the cell apoptosis.Noticeable cell apoptosis were occurred in 20 mM glutamate group with AIF nuclear translocation.Calpain up-expression also contributed to excitatory neurotransmitter injury on SGNs,but Caspase 3 had no obvious effects.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To explore the effect of dexmedetomidine ( DEX) on the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-homologous protein ( CHOP) pathway during lung ischemia-reperfusion ( I/R) in mice.METHODS:C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into sham operation group ( sham group) , lung ischemia/reperfusion group ( I/R group) , ischemia/reperfusion +normal saline group ( I/R+NS group ) and ischemia/reperfusion+dexmedetomidine group ( I/R+DEX group) .Dexmedetomidine was infused intraperitoneally with 25 μg/kg for 30 min prior to the ischemia period in I/R+DEX group, the normal saline was administrated with the same volume of dexmedetomidine in I/R+NS group.After fini-shed the 3 h-reperfusion period , the left lung tissues were harvested to determine lung wet/dry weight ( W/D) , the total lung water content ( TLW) , and index of quantitative evaluation for alveolar damage ( IQA) .Morphological observation and terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling ( TUNEL) were applied to evaluate the structure changes and the apoptosis index (AI) of the lung tissues.The expression of CHOP and glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) at mRNA and protein levels in the lung tissues was detected by Western blot and RT-PCR.RESULTS:Compared with sham group, the W/D, TLW, IQA, AI, the mRNA and protein expression of CHOP and GRP78 obviously increased, and the left lung tissues structure were damaged more obviously both in I/R group and I/R+NS group.Compared with I/R group, the W/D, TLW, IQA, AI and the protein and mRNA expression of CHOP in I/R+DEX group decreased, the injury of the left lung tissue structures induced by I/R in I/R+DEX group were also alleviated .CONCLUSION:DEX alleviates the
lung I/R injury, which may be related to inhibition of apoptosis mediated by CHOP pathway.

AIM:To investigate how to design personalized cataract surgery programs to achieve surgical correction of preoperative corneal astigmatism with surgical astigmatism under the guidance of corneal topography, improve postoperative visual quality and reduce the cost of treatment.
METHODS: Totally 202 cases ( 226 eyes ) cataract patients were divided into randomized treatment group and individualized treatment group. According to the method and location of the incision, randomized treatment group were divided into 8 groups. Surgical astigmatism after different incision were calculated with the use of preoperative and postoperative corneal astigmatism through vector analysis method. Individualized treatment groups were designed personably for surgical method with reference of every surgically induced astigmatism, the surgical method chooses the type of surgical incision based on close link between preoperative corneal astigmatism and surgically induced astigmatism, and the incision was located in the steep meridian. The postoperative corneal astigmatism of individualized treatment group was observed.
RESULTS: Postoperative corneal astigmatism of individualized treatment group were lower than that of 3.0mm clear corneal tunnel incision in the randomized treatment group, there were statistically significance difference, while with 3. 0mm sclera tunnel incision group there were no statistically significance difference. After 55. 8% of patients with the use of individualized surgical plan could undergo the operation of extracapsular cataract extraction with relatively low cost and rigid intraocular lens implantation, the per capita cost of treatment could be reduced.
CONCLUSION: Personalized cataract surgery programs are designed to achieve surgical correction of preoperative corneal astigmatism under the use of corneal topography, improve postoperative visual quality and reduce the cost of treatment.

Objective To evaluate the changes in sagittal profiles and complications during treatment with growing rods (GRs) in hyperkyphotic early-onset scoliosis (EOS).Methods From December 2009 to December 2016,a total of 32 EOS patients who received growing rods treatment in our center,including 8 males and 24 females,were reviewed retrospectively.All the patients had minimum 2-year follow-up and over 2 lengthenings.Based on the reference value of thoracic kyphosis (TK) in T2-12 of normal children,the patients were categorized into an N group (20°≤TK≤50°,15 cases,4 males and 11 females) or K group (TK≥50°,17 cases,4 males and 13 females).The distribution of etiology was similar between the two groups.The average age was (6.2±2.0) years and (6.3±2.3) years respectively,curve flexibility was 34.6％± 10.4％ and 35.8％± 11.2％ before surgery.The precontoured rods were tunneled submuscularly,connecting proximal and distal anchors,and tandem or domino connectors.The rods were then locked after applying direct distraction that allowed appropriate elongation.The connectors were all placed under the deep fascia.Results The mean follow-up in the N and K groups was (5.5±1.9) years and (5.5±2.1) years,respectively.The distribution of proximal and distal anchors was similar between the two groups.The N and K groups,respectively,had an average number of lengthenings of 5.1±2.0 and 5.3±2.3,with mean lengthening intervals of (11.3±2.3) months and (10.9±1.9) months,respectively.In the N group,TK was decreased from 36.0°±9.4° to 30.6°±.8.3° after surgery,and to 32.2°±7.8° at the last follow-up,demonstrating it was maintained within the normal range.In the K group,TK was markedly reduced from 67.6°±11.6° to 41.7°±8.7° after the index surgery,with a correction rate of 38.3％± 14.6％,and the difference was statistically significant.And then it slightly increased to 46.5°±8.4° at the last follow-up,with correction loss of 7.1％±4.2％,and the difference was not statistically significant compared with the postoperatiom.The complication rate in the K group was significantly higher than in the N group (76.5％ vs.33.3％,P=0.031).The most common implant-and alignment-related complication in both groups was rod fracture (15.6％) and proximal junctional kyphosis (21.9％),respectively.The incidence of rod fracture in the N group and K group was 6.7％ and 23.5％,respectively.And the incidence of proximal junctional kyphosis was noted as 13.3％ and 29.4％ in the N group and K group,respectively.Proximal junctional angle (PJA) in the K group was greater than that in the N group preoperatively,postoperatively and at the last follow-up.Moreover,the increasing amount of PJA was significantly greater in the K group compared to the N group (1.6°± 1.0° vs.0.7°±0.8°).Four and seven complication events in the N and K groups,respectively,were evaluated with Grade Ⅰ.Four and seven complication events in the N and K groups,respectively,were classified as Grade Ⅱ A.Conclusion GRs can effectively restore the sagittal profile in hyperkyphotie EOS patients,but with a higher complication rate compared to the patients with normal kyphosis.
