Objective To explore the relationship between periodontal disease and preeclampsia and the effects of periodontal treatment on preeclampsia.Methods China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database,WANGFANG DATA,China Dissertation Full-Text Database,China Proceedings of Conference Full-Text Database,Cochrane Library,PubMed,EMbase,Elsevier,Springer,and Science Direct OnSite were extracted from inception till September 30,2014.The case-control,cohort and randomized controlled trials about the association of matemal periodontal disease and preeclampsia were searched according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.RevMan5.1 and Stata12.0 were used to test the heterogeneity of the results among the different studies and amalgamate the effect size using fixed or random effect models.Results Twenty studies (15 case-control and 5 cohort) involving 8 775 women assessed the association between periodontal disease and preeclampsia.A positive association was found (OR=2.48,95％CI:1.76-3.48,P ＜ 0.01).Meta-analysis of the case-control studies showed more than twice in the odds of preeclampsia with the presence of periodontal disease (OR=2.75,95％CI:1.93-3.92,P ＜ 0.01).Meta-analysis of cohort studies did not reveal any significant differences (OR=1.84,95％CI:0.91-3.74,P ＞ 0.05).Four randomized controlled trials with 3 712 women evaluated the effect of periodontal treatment on preeclampsia,and meta-analysis showed no relative risk reduction in preeclampsia with periodontal treatment (RR=1.04,95％CI:0.84-1.30,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Periodontal disease appears to be a possible risk factor for preeclampsia,but treatment during pregnancy does not prevent preeclampsia.High-quality prospective studies are needed to confirm the relationship between periodontal disease and preeclampsia.

Objective:To develop a Child School Refusal Behavior Rating Scale(SRBQC)and examine its reliabilities and validities. Methods:Based on literature review,interview,and open-ended questionnaire,124 origi-nal items were developed. Totally 573 students were recruited to complete the test version. After item and explorato-ry factor analysis,the formal scale-SRBQC was got. Totally 946 students were tested with formal version for further confirmatory factor analysis,internal consistency reliability and composite reliability. The criterion validity was test-ed with the Social Anxiety Scale for Child (SASC). Totally 41 students were retested for test-retest reliability with 2 weeks interval. Results:The formal version of SRBQC included 19 items. Exploratory factor analysis generated 5 factors which account 59. 793% of the variance in all,the results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that SR-BQC had a good construct validity (χ2 =329. 51,df=142,χ2/df=2. 32,CFI=0. 97,GFI=0. 93,IFI=0. 97,NFI=0. 95,NNFI=0. 96,RMSEA=0. 05,SRMR=0. 05). The SRBQC scores were positively correlated with the SASC scores (r=0. 18-0. 34,Ps<0. 05 ). The Cronbach coefficients were 0. 87 for the total questionnaire and 0. 55 -0. 78 for the 5 factors. The test-retest reliabilities were 0. 84 for the total questionnaire and 0. 66 -0. 78 for the 5 factors. Conclusion:The reliability and validity of the School Refusal Bevior Questionaire for Children(SRBQC) meet the needs of psychometrics.

Objectives To explore the relevant factors of liver X receptor (LXR) and lipid metabolism in school-age chil-dren with obesity. Methods A total of 80 obese children were selected by indexes of physical growth from pupils in Grades 1-6, aged 7-14 years from June 2011 to October 2011. Fifty-one age and sex matched children with normal BMI were chosen as nor-mal controls. The metabolic indexes including aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), glutamyl transpep-tidase (GGT), total cholesterol (CHOL), triacylglycerol (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipopro-tein cholesterol (LDL-C) and expression of LXR were detected in fasting blood. Results The expression level of LXR in obese children (9.14 ± 1.15) was higher than that in control children (2.84 ± 3.68) with significant difference (t=4.55,P=0.000). Eighty percent (80%) of obese children were LXR>1 (64/80) which was higher than that of control children (23/51, 45.1%), and signifi-cant difference was found between the two groups (χ2=17.01, P=0.000). Compared to controls, the levels of AST, ALT, GGT, CHOL, TG and LDL-C were higher while the level of HDL-C was lower in obese children (P<0.05). The correlation analysis found that AST, ALT, CHOL, LDL-C and BMI were positively correlated with LXR (r=0.18~0.26,P<0.05). Logistic regression ana-lysis showed that AST≥40IU/L (OR=1.076), ALT≥40IU/L (OR=1.036), CHOL≥5.20 mmol/L (OR=2.038), LDL-C≥3.36 mmol/L (OR=2.176) and BMI≥18.9 kg/m2 (OR=1.131) were risk factors for LXR>1 (P<0.05). Conclusions Obesity in school-age chil-dren can up-regulate the expression of liver X receptor and cause liver damage and abnormal lipids metabolism.

Objective To evaluate the efifcacy and safety of Xiyanping in the treatment of hand-foot and mouth disease. Methods Based on the principles and methods of Cochrane systematic reviews, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medline, Chinese Bio-medicine Database (CBM), China Journal Full-text Database (CNKI), VIP database and Wanfang database were searched. All of the randomized controlled trials (RCT) of Xiyanping versus ribavirin were included. The data were extracted and evalu-ated by two reviewers independently. Risk assessment tool was used to assess the risk of bias and software Revman5.0 was used for meta-analysis. Results Twenty-four RCT and 3314 patients were included. Comparing to ribavirin, Xiyanping showed better therapeutic outcomes regarding to total effective rate, durations of fever and rash elimination (RR=1.17, 95%CI:1.12~1.23;MD=-1.56, 95%CI:-2.10~-1.02;MD=-1.41, 95%CI:-1.90~-0.93). Side effects were rare in both groups and could be recovered after drug withdrawal. Conclusions The current evidence suggests that Xiyanping is superior to ribavirin in the treatment of hand-foot and mouth disease.

Aim To investigate the expressions of Fas/FasL and apoptosis of pulmonary tissue as well as oxygen free radical in the pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin in rats at inflammation stage and fibrosis stage.Methods Forty-eight rats were divided into three groups randomly,including control group,model group and breviscapine group.On experimental day 0,the rats were intratracheally instilled with bleomycin,and then treated with breviscapine 10 mg?kg-1?d-1 until they were killed.On days 7,28 after stillation,eight rats of each group were killed and the lungs were harvested for examination.Flow cytomagnetometry was used to detect the changes of cell apoptosis and the expressions of Fas/Fasl in rats with pulmonary fibrosis caused by bleomycin at flammation stage and fibrosis stage.Malonaldehyde and hydroxyproline(HYP)of lung tissue were detected by TAB method.Results The apoptosis index of lung cells in the pulmonary fibrosis group was higher than that of control and breviscapine group.The expression of Fas/FasL and contents of Malonaldehyde as well as hydroxyproline in the pulmonary fibrosis group were higher than those of control group and breviscapine group(P

Objective To investigate the risk factors for locally recurrent rectal cancer after radical resection.Methods The clinical data of 50 locally recurrent rectal cancer patients (recurrent group) and 100 matched controls (control group) who received radical resection at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen university from January 2000 to March 2009 were retrospectively analyzed.Factors including tumor location,postoperative chemotherapy,tumor differentiation,vascular or neural invasion,T stage,tumor diameter,number of lymph nodes dissected and number of positive lymph nodes of the 2 groups were analysed by univariate analysis,and factors correlated with tumor recurrence were screened out.All data were analyzed using the chi-square test,t test,Wilcoxon test or Logistic regression analysis.Results All the patients were followed up till January 2013,and the median time of follow-up was 52 months.Twenty-two patients in the recurrent group and 32 patients in the control group died during the follow-up.The results of univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in tumor location and T stage between the 2 groups (x2 =6.407,9.652,P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in postoperative chemotherapy,tumor differentiation,vascular and neural invasion,tumor diameter,number of lymph nodes dissected and number of positive lymph nodes between the 2 groups (x2 =1.349,0.342,0.656,Z =7142.5,8214.5,7241.5,P ＞ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that tumor location and T stage were the factors correlated with the tumor recurrence after radical resection (Wald =3.954,5.615,P ＜ 0.05).Compared with upper rectal cancer,the local recurrence rate was not significantly different in the middle rectal cancer (OR =1.893,P ＞ 0.05),whereas the lower rectal cancer had a higher local recurrence rate (OR =3.201,P ＜0.05).Compared with patients in T2 stage,the local recurrence rate was not significantly different in patients in T3 stage (OR =4.913,P ＞0.05),while patients in T4 stage had a higher local recurrence rate (OR =16.103,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Locally recurrent rectal cancer is closely related to tumor location and T stage,which indicates that factors reflecting the extent of surgical resection (such as circumferential margin) are of great importance in assessing the prognosis and making subsequent treatment schedule.

The pharmacological activity of Mycena dendrobii Fan et Guo, a new species of endophytic fungus was studied. It was revealed that the mycelia methanol extracts and the fermentation liquid ethanol extracts of Mycena dendrobii showed anglgesic effect to mice, which have the correlations to that of the traditional Chinese medicine ‘shihu’. The fermentation liquid ethanol extracts of Mycena dendrobii showed excitation effect to central nervous system of mice. Then the effective parts of anglgesic effect was determined.

Background and purpose:Clinical data show that Endostar, a recombinant human endostatin, has the therapeutic beneift for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) while combined with chemotherapy or ra-diotherapy. However, the microenvironment changes induced by Endostar monotherapy in NSCLC is not yet clear. The purpose of this study was to prospectively study tumor vascular effects of Endostar monotherapy in patients with locally advanced or advanced NSCLC by dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion computed tomography (CT perfusion, CT-p). Methods:Previously untreated patients with histologically or cytologically conifrmed locally advanced or advanced NSCLC were eligible. All patients received daily Endostar (7.5 mg?m2) for 14 days. CT-p scans were acquired at the baseline and post-treatment. CT-p parameters, such as blood lfow (BF), blood volume (BV) and permeability surface PS (area product), were measured in all patients.Results:Of all 7 patients enrolled, four were staged asⅢB and three as stageⅣ (2 with malignant pleural effusion, 1 with brain metastasis). The median BF, BV and PS values of baseline and post-treatment were 27.1/48.9 mL/100 mL/min, 86.8/84.8 mL/100 mL and 45.0/54.0 mL/100 mL/min, respectively. After administration of Endostar for 14 days , BF showed a signiifcant increase compared with that at baseline (P=0.028), whereas no signiifcant changes were found in BV (P=0.398) and PS (P=0.237) values.Conclusion:Our results suggest that Endostar monotherapy induces a signiifcant increase in BF whereas no signiifcant difference in BV and PS.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathological factors on the prognosis and investigate the necessity of adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 255 patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from January 2000 to December 2005 were collected.The survival curve was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method,and the survival rate of the patients were analyzed by Log-rank test.Factors influencing the survival were analyzed by Cox regression model.Results All patients were followed up till April 23,2010,and the mean time of follow-up was (63 ± 22)months.The median survival time was 63 months.The 5-year and tumor-free survival rates were 85.3％ and 83.7％,respectively.The 5-year overall and tumor-free survival rates of patients without preoperative bowel obstruction or perforation were 86.9％ and 85.6％,which were sigaificantly higher than 72.7％and 68.4％ of patients with preoperative bowel obstruction or perforation(x2 =4.546,4.573,P ＜ 0.05 ).The 5-year overall and tumor-free survival rates of patients with negative resection margin were 85.5％ and 83.9％,which were significantly higher than 75.0％ and 75.0％ of patients with positive resection margin(x2 =7.020,6.009,P ＜ 0.05 ).The result of multivariate analysis revealed that preoperative bowel obstruction or perforation were the independent risk factors for patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer(Wald =4.477,relative risk =2.371,95 ％ confidence interval:1.066-5.275,P ＜ 0.05 ).The 5-year overall and tumor-free survival rates were 87.3％ and 86.0％ for patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy,and were 82.2％ and 80.3％ for patients who did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy (P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions Preoperative bowel obstruction or perforation are independent risk factors for the survival of patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer.Adjuvant chemotherapy could not improve the prognosis of patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer.
