The diagnosis of local recurrence after radiochemotherapy for esophageal cancer requires the combination of multiple imaging methods (esophageal X-ray,computed tomography,endoscopic ultrasonography,and positron emission tomography-computed tomography),dynamic changes in esophagoscopy,and biopsy.The main treatment of recurrence includes salvage surgery,radiochemotherapy,endoscopic mucosal resection,and chemotherapy.The overall survival rate after the above treatment is improved compared with palliative care but still unsatisfactory.Early diagnosis of recurrence is fundamental for improved treatment outcomes.

Objective To study the bacteriological effect of different dosages of gamma irradiation on Escherichia Coli (E. Coli) in red blood cells (RBC) products,and assess the appropriate dose of gamma irradiation. Methods Prepare RBC samples inoculated with(102-106)/ml of E. Coli. The contaminated RBCs were irradiated by 0 (as control),15,20,25,30 and 35Gy of gamma irradiation. E. Coli in the RBCs were tested on days 0,7, and 14 after irradiation. Results The quantities of E. Coli changed after irradiation. The RBCs inoculated with less than 103cfu/ml of E. Coli were completely sterilized by 25 Gy irradiation. Conclusion 25 Gy gamma irradiation can eradicate less than 103cfu/ml of E. Coli in the RBC products.

Objective To evaluate the impact of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection on the outcome following resection for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients.Methods The clinicpathological data of 60 consecutive operated ICC patients were collected.These patients were divided into group A with HBV infection,represented by serum positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg),group B with hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) positive,and group C with all serum marker of HBV negative.The overall survival rate was evaluated.Results The 1-and 3-year overall survival rate and median survival of three groups were 50％ vs 53％ vs 29％ ; 22％ vs 18％ vs O; and 12.0 m vs 12.0 m vs 6 m,respectively.The difference was statistically significant(P =0.037).Multivariate analyses revealed that the preoperative serum level of TIBL,tumor location,HBV infection or injection of hepatitis B vaccine,hepatolithiasis and adjuvant chemotherapy were related to the prognosis.Conclusions HBV infection or injection of hepatitis B vaccine is favorable independent factor for prognosis of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after resection.

Aim The effect of polysaccharide of spirulina on mouse myelosuppression induced by cyclophosphamide was studied. Methods Mice in the model, treatment groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ were given cyclophosphamide(ip 100 mg · kg- 1) for there days. At the same time mice in the treatment groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ were given ig spirulin 30 mg · kg-1 and 60 mg · kg-1 for ten days, while mice in the control group and model group were given ip 20 mg · kg-1 of NS. Peripheral blood and marrow cytometry, micromcelsus and chromosome aberration were analyed. Results In the dosages of 30 and 60 mg · kg-1 polysaccharide of spirulina, the polysaccharide of spirulina had perfect action on the perihemateikon and the function of bone hematoplast induced by cyclophosphamide(P ＜0.01) and antagonistic action on increase of bone cell micronuclsus(P＜0.05); The ratio of chromosome aberration in the treated group was lower compared with that in the model group. The inhibitory ratio was 51.2% and 62.5% in the treated groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ .Conclusion Polysaccharide of spirulina can perfect the hematoplast function of mice injured by cyclophosphamide.

0.05).The acute toxicity was more severe in the no-response group and response-LCAF group than in the response-CF group.Conclusion:LCAF did not improve the local control rate and survival rate on grades Ⅰ&Ⅱ esophageal carcinoma when 40Gy had been given by CF.Grades Ⅲ&Ⅳ esophageal carcinoma will get benefit from LCAF.

AIM: To investigate the influence of serum apolipoprotein (apo) CII concentrations on the distribution of serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subclasses. METHODS: Serum HDL subclasses in 247 subjects were determined by two dimensional gel electrophoresis-immunodetection. RESULTS: With the increase in serum apolipoprotein CII levels, age, BMI, the contents of TG, TC, apoB100, apoCII, apoCIII, apoE, preβ_1-HDL, preβ_2-HDL, HDL_3b and HDL_3a increased significantly, but the contents of HDL-C, HDL_(2a) and HDL_(2b) decreased remarkably. The contents of preβ_1-HDL increased with the rise in apoCII and apoA I levels, whereas the content of HDL_(2b) increased with the rise in serum apoA I level in the same apoC II group, but decreased with the increase in serum apolipoprotein CII level in the same apoA I group. With the increase in the ratio of apoCII/ apoCIII, the content of preβ_1-HDL elevated, but the content of HDL_(2b) decreased. The correlation analysis illustrated that the apoCII level was positively correlated with preβ_1-HDL (r=0.186, P<0.01), but inversely correlated with HDL_(2b) (r=-0.149, P<0.05). The apoA I level was positively associated with all HDL subclasses (r in the range of 0.349-0.587, P<0.01). In addition, the apoCIII level was positively correlated with preβ_1-HDL (r=0.184, P<0.01) and preβ_2-HDL (r=0.178, P<0.01), while the apoE level was positively correlated with HDL_(3a) (r=0.040, P<0.05). The apoB100 level was inversely correlated with HDL_(2a) (r=-0.102, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The particles of HDL show a general shift towards smaller size with the increase in apoCII levels, indicating that the maturation of HDL is abnormal. Whereas the contents of apoA I level correct the effect of apoCII on the distribution profile of HDL subclasses. The ratio of apoCII/apoCIII might also been taken as one of the indexes reflecting the distribution profile of serum HDL subclasses.

The inhibitory ratio (1%) of artificial musk on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) was determined by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The dose-effect relationship between concentrations of artificial musk and 1% was established. It was found that artificial musk had obvious inhibitory action on COX-2. The concentration for 50% of maximum inhibitory effect (IC50) was about 2.26 mg x mL(-1). There was a good relationship between the logarithm concentrations of artificial musk and 1% when the concentrations of artificial musk ranged from 0.31-20.0 mg x mL(-1). The results indicated that this EIA method could be applied to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of artificial musk quickly, conveniently, sensitively and exactly. This paper provided a novel method and foundational research for the bioassay of artificial musk.

[Objective]To analyze the prognostic factors of resectable acral melanoma patients ,then develop a novel prognostic model and examined its prognostic value.[Methods]The study retrospectively analyzed clinicopathological characteristics and inflam?matory markers of 232 acral melanoma patients who underwent radical surgical resection between 2000 and 2011 at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to estimate overall survival. Significantly predictive factors were identified by multivariate Cox regression analyses and a prognostic model based on these variables was constructed to predict survival.[Results]Cox regression analysis revealed that age,lactic dehydrogenase(LDH),stage,globulin(GLB)and C-reactive protein (CRP)were independently related to survival. After computing these scores ,patients were classified into three risk groups. The new prognostic model identified three categories of patients with different prognoses(P<0.001)and significantly stratify patient prognosis in different tumor stages. The 5-year survival rate was 42.9%,25.7%,and 3.7%in groups 1,2,and 3,respectively. The AUC of new prognostic model is 0.664(95%CI:0.599-0.724).[Conclusion]Age,LDH,stage,GLB and CRP were independently related to survival in our study population,and the prognostic model is useful to stratify patients into different risk groups and it is a useful complement to AJCC staging for Asian patients with acral melanoma.

Objective: To observe the tolerability of Chinese melanoma patients to four-week high-dose interferon alfa-2b(INTRON A(R)，Schering-Plough)therapy. Methods:A total of 29 patients with high risk melanoma[American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging(AJCC)ⅡB-ⅢC]who received adjuvant interferon therapy in our hospital between September 2007 and May 2009 were retrospectively reviewed.Patients received 4 hours of intravenous infusion of interferon alfa-2b fdose range，22.00 million international unit(MIU)to 33.75 MIU]Ⅳ 5 days/week for 4 weeks.The adverse events were evaluated with National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria(NCI 2.0 version). Results: The average daily dose was 17.63 MIU/(m~2·d).The therapy was ended in two patients because of poor wound healing or intolerability to severe fatigue.The most common adverse events were myelosuppression.Grade 3/4 neutropenia was observed in 69% (20/29)patients and was rapidly reversed after conventional support interventions.Grade 1/2 abnormal hepatic function occurred in 18 cases(62%).Twenty-six patients were followed up for 3 to 22 months.Five patients developed early progression:one with local recurrence，two with regional lymph node metastasis one with in-transit metastasis in the affected limb,and one with distant metastasis. Conclusion: High-dose interferon alfa-2b regimen can be well tolerated by Chinese patients but cannot effectively inhibit subclinical lesions.
