2.131I treatment of differentiated thyroid carcinoma in children and adolescents
Chinese Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging 2014;34(1):76-78
The occurrence rate of DTC in children and adolescents is not high.However,DTC in these patients has some distinct characteristics different from those in adult,such as larger tumor volume at diagnosis,early invasion of neck lymph nodes and early distant metastases,high NIS expression,high recurrence but higher overall survival rate.131 I ablation is still one of the important treatment methods after surgery.Currently,there are 3 major dosage regimens adopted for 131I treatment: prescribed dose without causing bone marrow suppression/toxicity,dose aiming at tumor ablation,and empirically fixed dose.
3.Isolation and Identification of One Marine Actinomycete Strain Exhibiting Antitumor Activity
Microbiology 1992;0(01):-
The fermentation broth of one actinomycete strain ACMA006 strongly inhibited growth of many tumor cells and some microorganisms, but its cytotoxicity to human normal cells were weak. Strain ACMA006 grow well on most tested media, producing exuberant vegetative hyphae and aerial hyphae. Its optimization temperature is 28?C. Phyloge-netic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence showed that strain ACMA006 was closely related to one of the genus Streptomycetes (S.cavourensis subsp. washingtonensis) with 16S rDNA sequence similarity values of 100%, but had many differences in other features including its morphology, physiological and biochemical characteristics. The pre-liminary study supported the view that the strain ACMA006 represented a new strain of the S.cavourensis subsp. wash-ingtonensis.

The SEM specimens of the blood vessels of the gall-bladder in the full term fetus were produced with the methyl methacrylate cast. The specimens were dryed and gilded with EIKO. IB-3. and then observed under scanning electron microscope. The microvessels of the wall of gall-bladder obviously were divided into three layers, namely: serous vessels, muscular vessels and mucous vessels. The serous and muscular vessels are similar to that of the intestinal canal. However the mucous vessels were characterized by subepithelial capillary networks and veins of large calibre in the lamina propria. The capillary networks were connected directly with the venous plexus by the capillaries. There are fewer arterioles passing and branching among the venous plexuses. Each arteriole was connected to capillary networks. The short capillary was seen frequently between the arterioles and the venous plexus, serving as communication between them.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of probiotics in adjunctive prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea(CID),and to provide evidence-based reference in the clinic. METHODS:All relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of probiotics in adjunctive prevention and treatment of CID were collected by searching EMBase,Co-chrane library,PubMed,CJFD,VIP,Wanfang databases and CBM. Meta-analysis were performed with Rev Man 5.2 software af-ter data extraction and quality evaluation by Cochrane Hand book 5.0risk-bias assessment tool. RESULTS:10 RCTs were includ-ed,involving 871 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that addition of probiotics on the basis of conventional symptomatic therapy significantly reduced the total rate of diarrhea in cancer patients [OR=0.31,95%CI(0.20,0.49),P<0.001] and Ⅲ-Ⅳ diar-rhea rate[OR=0.09,95%CI(0.03,0.24),P<0.001],improved overall response rate [OR=4.16,95%CI(2.40,7.23),P<0.001] and complete remission rate [OR=2.55,95%CI(1.66,3.90),P<0.001],with statistical significance. The probiotics had little effect onⅠ-Ⅱlevel diarrhea rate[OR=0.86,95%CI(0.48,1.56),P=0.62] and partial remission rate[OR=1.00,95%CI(0.67,1.50),P=1.00],with statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS:The use of probiotics before chemotherapy can effectively prevent the occur-rence of severe CID in cancer patients;in the treatment of CID,the combination of probiotics can also improve therapeutic effica-cy of conventional symptomatic treatment.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for medical costs control in China. METHODS:Based on main characteristics of the United States health service system,information asymmetry,principal-agent theory and Freedman’s consumption theory were used to analyze the advantages of restrictive relationship among doctors,hospitals and health insurance institutions in control-ling medical costs and improving the quality of diagnosis and treatment. The growth rate of medical cost,the percentage of drug ex-penditure and other aspects were compared between China and the United States;the effect of restrictive relationship on medical cost control was demonstrated. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:In the United States,there are hierarchical medical system and two-way referral system;for-profit hospitals and non-profit hospitals are mutually complementary;different natures of health insur-ance system,different payment methods and strict“commercial bribe”monitoring system are carried out;doctors,hospitals and health insurance restrict each other. Not only there are many advantages in theory,but also in practice the growth rate of medical cost and the percentage of drug expenditure are superior to our country. Finally it controls the rapid growth of medical cost to a cer-tain extent. Combined with our national conditions,learning from the United States experience,restrictive relationship among doc-tors,hospitals and health insurance institutions is established to control the increase of medical cost in China through reducing infor-mation asymmetry and standardizing payment audit;establishing a scientific pattern of mixed payment;strengthening the indirect impact of the health insurance institutions on doctors and hospitals,etc.

Objective To study the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1 ) and Notch signaling pathway downstream gene HES 1 in the hippocampus of pubertal rats with status epilepsy (SE), and to explore the regulation site of HIF-1αin Notch signaling pathway. Methods One hundred and seventy-six 21-day-old SD rats were randomly divided into control group (NS group), pentetrazole (PTZ)-induced SE group (PTZ group), and Notch signaling pathway speciifc inhibitor (DAPT) intervention group (DAPT group). In PTZ group PTZ was intraperitoneally injected to build SE model and in NS group normal saline was injected as control. The intraperitoneal injection of diazepam was used to terminate SE seizures. After successful modeling, the bilateral hippocampuses were isolated after the rats were sacriifced at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 8 h, respectively, and RT-PCR was performed to detect the mRNA expression of HES 1 and HIF-1α. The Western Blot was performed to detect protein expression in hippocampuses which were collected at 2 , 4 , 8 , 12 , and 24 h after successful modeling. DAPT group received intraperitoneal injection of DAPT 30 min before the start of molding, then the hippocampuses were isolated at 2 and 8 h after successful modeling. RT-PCR was performed to detect the mRNA expression of HES 1 and HIF-1αat 2 h, and Western blot was performed to detect protein expression at 8 h. Results At each time point after SE, the expression of mRNA of HES 1 and HIF-1αand the expression of protein were higher than the same time point of NS group (P0 . 05 ). Compared with the same time point of PTZ group, the mRNA expression of HES 1 and HIF-1αand the expression of protein of DAPT group were obviously reduced (P0 . 05 ). Conclusion HES 1 gene may be the regulatory site of HIF-1 expression in Notch signaling pathway in the hippocampus of puberty rats with SE.

The microvasculature of monkey parotid gland was observed by scanning electron microscope. The capillary networks around the acini were loose and the capillary networks around the ducts were dense and sinusoidal in type. The capillary networks around both the acini and intercalated duct and sinusoidal capillary networks around both the striated duct and intralobular duct were supplied by the blood passing through the acinar or duct arterioles from interlobular and intralobular artery. The capillary networks around the acini showed three draining forms: (1) draining into the vein directly; (2) draining into the capillary network around the striated duct through capillaries; (3) draining into the capillary network around the striated duct through venules. The latter form (venules) is named as "portal system". The capillary networks around the striated duct showed two draining forms: (1) they continued to form the capillary network around the intralobular duct; (2) they converged into venules which accompanied by the intralobular duct. The arterio-venous anastomoses were not observed in the parotid gland. However, arterio-arterial and venovenous anastomoses were found in interlobular region.
