The real-time monitoring of cerebral hemorrhage can reduce its disability and fatality rates greatly. On the basis of magnetic induction phase shift, we in this study used filter and amplifier hardware module, NI-PXI data-acquisition system and LabVIEW software to set up an experiment system. We used Band-pass sample method and correlation phase demodulation algorithm in the system. In order to test and evaluate the performance of the system, we carried out saline simulation experiments of brain hemorrhage. We also carried out rabbit cerebral hemorrhage experiments. The results of both saline simulation and animal experiments suggested that our monitoring system had a high phase detection precision, and it needed only about 0.030 4s to finish a single phase shift measurement, and the change of phase shift was directly proportional to the volume of saline or blood. The experimental results were consistent with theory. As a result, this system has the ability of real-time monitoring the progression of cerebral hemorrhage precisely, with many distinguished features, such as low cost, high phase detection precision, high sensitivity of response so that it has showed a good application prospect.

OBJECTIVE:To conduct screening for the active ingredients of Ziziphus jujuba with neuroprotective effect and to il-luminate their mechanisms of action preliminarily. METHODS:After neuron-like cells (PC12 cells) were respectively cultured in the ingredient of Z. jujuba with polysaccharide enriched(1 mg/ml),that with polysaccharide removed(1 mg/ml),7 kinds of flavo-noid ingredients of Z. jujuba(catechin,procyanidine B2,epicatechin,hyperoside,rutin,quercetin-3-β-D-glucoside and kaempfer-ol-3-O-rutinoside,represented by A,B,C,D,E,F,G,all at the concentrations of 3,13,30 μmol/L)and 2 kinds of nucleoside ingredients of Z. jujuba (cyclic adenosine monophosphate and cyclic guanosine monophosphate,both at the concentrations of 3, 13,30 μmol/L)for 24 h,tert-butyl hydroperoxide(tBHP,150 μmol/L)was used to act on PC12 cells for 3 h to induce oxidative cellular damage,and MTT assay was employed to detect the survival rate of PC12 cells. The PC12 cells transfected with reporter gene plasmid(pARE-Luc)were cultured as above for 24 h,luciferase(Luc)assay was used to detect the transcriptional levels of the antioxidant response element(ARE)of all groups of cells(reflected as the activity of Luc)so as to investigate the anti-injury mechanism. RESULTS:The ingredient of Z. jujuba with polysaccharide enriched could significantly increase the survival rate of PC12 cells to which oxidative damage was caused and the transcriptional level of ARE in the transfected cells. Among the flavonoid ingredients of Z. jujuba, A(30 μmol/L),B(3-30 μmol/L)and C(10-30 μmol/L)could significantly increased the survival rate of the cells,and A(30 μmol/L),B(3-30 μmol/L),C(30 μmol/L),E(30 μmol/L)and F(3-30 μmol/L)could obviously in-creased the activation level of ARE in the transfected cells. However,the nucleoside ingredients of Z. jujuba including cyclic ade-nosine monophosphate and cyclic guanosine monophosphate had no obvious effect of increasing the survival rate of PC12 cells to which oxidative damage was caused or activating the transcription of ARE in the transfected cells. CONCLUSIONS:The polysac-charide and flavonoid ingredients of Z. jujuba may be the active ingredients which account for the neuroprotective effect against oxi-dative cellular damage,and their mechanisms of action may be related to the activation of ARE transcription.

Objectives:To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of the full coverage radiation to primary and all metastatic lesions in patients with oligometastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).Methods:Forty-four patients with oligometastatic CRPC was retrospective analyzed from Oct. 2011 to Jun. 2017 at Peking University 1 st Hospital. Before radiotherapy, average age was 72(57-86), the median value of initial PSA was 38.545 (6.640-1 066.000)ng/ml, the median value of PSA nadir after initial androgen deprivation therapy(ADT) was 0.259(0.011-18.762)ng/ml, the time interval between initial ADT to diagnosis of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer(mCRPC) was 12(4-96) months, and the median PSA value pre-radiotherapy was 3.765(2.040-187.000) ng/ml. There were 23(52.3%)patients with Gleason score 9-10 and 15(34.0%) patients with Gleason score 8. At the time of initial diagnosis, there was 41(93.2%) cases with stage T 3-T 4, 23(52.3%)cases with lymph node metastasis, and 29 (63.9%) case with distant metastasis. The number of metastatic foci before radiotherapy was 1 in 22(50.0%)cases, 2 in 12(27.3%)cases, 3 in 6(13.6%)cases and 4 in 4(9.1%)cases. There were 3 cases of pelvic lymph node metastasis (6.8%), 9 cases of retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis(20.5%), 21 cases of bone metastasis(47.7%), 11 cases of bone metastasis+ lymph node metastasis(25.0%), and no visceral metastasis. Image-guided volumetric modulated arc therapy(IGRT-VMAT) was used to fully cover primary and metastatic foci. The prostate and seminal vesicle were routinely underwent 76Gy/38 fractions, and the bioequivalent dose(BED 3) was 126.67 Gy. For those with pelvic lymph node metastasis, the drainage area of pelvic lymph node was 46Gy/23 fractions. According to the tolerance of different normal tissues around the lesions, the median BED 3 of local radiotherapy dose in the metastatic foci was 112.26(91.14-140.77)Gy. The efficacy and side effects of all these patients were recorded. Kaplan-meier method was used to analyze the overall survival and the new metastasis-free survival. Results:Only 1 patient had grade 3 urinary tract obstruction and underwent indwelling catheter. All the other patients had grade 1-2 toxic and side effects. After a median follow-up of 34.5(9-96) months, the PSA-nadir after radiotherapy was 0.088(0.003-132.000)ng/ml. Forty(90.9%) patients showed a decrease in PSA after radiotherapy, and 34(77.3%) cases. showed a decrease of >80%. The 1, 3, and 5-year overall survival rates were 90.9%, 54.5%, 36.8%, the 1, 3, and 5-year new metastasis free survival rates were 47.7%, 25.0%, 12.9%, respectively.Conclusion:The full coverage radiotherapy to primary and metastatic lesions showed high PSA response rate, the satisfactory survival and tolerable toxicity in oligometastatic CRPC patients.

ObjectiveTo define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of weekly cisplatin in concurrent chemoradiotherapy for Chinese cervical carcinoma.MethodsCervical carcinoma of stage ⅠB2- ⅣA were eligible for the study.PhaseⅠstudy was dose-escalation trial with 15 patients.All patients received whole pelvic radiotherapy with three dimentional conformal radiotherapy technique. Concurrent cisplatin started from the dose of 20 mg/m2 to 25 mg/m2,30 mg/m2,35 mg/m2,40 mg/m2 for the weekly schedule ( ≥3 patients per dose group) and the doses were steadily escalated to 40 mg/.m2.If the dose was increased to 40 mg/m2 without dose-limiting toxicity ( DLT),40 mg/m2 would be the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).According to the MTD dose from Phase Ⅰ study,we conducted phase Ⅱ clinical trial with 36 patients.ResultsIn Phase Ⅰ study,cisplatin dose was escalated to 40 mg/m2 and DLT had not been reached.Thirty-six patients in Phase Ⅱ study included 9 inpatients and 27 outpatients.All 9 inpatients completed 6 cycles of chemotherapy. In 27 outpatients,18 patients (66％) completed 6 cycles of chemotherapy,19 patients (70％) completed 5 cycles and 25 patients (92％) completed 4 cycles of chemotherapy.All patients completed radiotherapy.Major adverse effects were grade 1 and 2 gastrointestinal toxicities and neutropenia.ConclusionsWeekly 40 mg/m2 cisplatin concurrent with radiotherapy is well tolerated when given to Chinese patients with cervical carcinoma. For outpatients with poor performance status,the cisplatin dose needs to be reduced.

Objective To analyze the survival and prognostic factors in the treatment of angiosarcoma. Methods A retrospective study was performed on clinical data of 30 patients pathologically diagnosed with angiosarcoma who were admitted to our hospital from 1988 to 2015 and had complete follow?up data. In those patients, 18 patients received comprehensive treatment, containing 9 patients treated with surgery plus radiotherapy, 4 patients with surgery plus chemoradiotherapy, and 5 with surgery plus chemotherapy;12 patients received non?comprehensive treatment, containing 11 patients treated with surgery alone and 1 patient radiotherapy alone. The survival rates were calculated using the Kaplan?Meier method and analyzed using the log?rank test. The Cox regression model was used for multivariate prognostic analyses. Results The 1?, 2?, and 5?year sample sizes were 29,26, and 18, respectively. The 1?, 2?, and 5?year overall survival ( OS) rates were 70?1%, 49?1%, and 40?9%, respectively;the 1?, 2?, and 5?year local relapse?free survival rates were 52?8%, 44?0%, and 35?2%, respectively;the 1?, 2?, and 5?year distant metastasis?free survival rates were 81?6%, 68?0%, and 56?7%, respectively. The multivariate analysis showed that tumor site, tumor size, staging, and visible tumor residue after initial treatment were prognostic factors for OS ( P= 0?027, 0?027, 0?011, 0?000 );In the patients with stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ disease, the comprehensive treatment achieved a significantly lower local?relapse rate than the individual treatment ( P=0?006);gender, age, staging, and tumor site were prognostic factors for distant metastasis ( P=0?028, 0?011, 0?015, 0?022 ) . Conclusions Early diagnosis and early treatment are recommended for angiosarcoma, which has high local recurrence and distant metastasis rates. Comprehensive treatment ( surgery plus radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy) is recommended for patients with stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ disease. Tumor site, tumor size, staging, and visible tumor residue after initial treatment are prognostic factors.
