Objective To test the serum albumin level in patients having the peritoneal dialysis,and investigate its relationship with C-reactive protein(CRP)level or other inflammatory complications. Methods Sixty patients having peritoneal dialysis treatment were divided into two groups based on the serum albumin(ALB)level,patients had normal ALB level were included into group A,while the patients with serum hypoproteinemia were included into group B. The serum level of CRP,transferin(TF)and nutritional status were compared between two groups,and their relationship with clinical complications were evaluated. Results The serum CRP level in patients of group B(8.40 ± 1.32)mg/L was significantly higher than group A(2. 14 ±0.87)mg/L(P ＜0. 01). Patients from group B had more inflammation complications,such as peritonitis(6. 7%),pneumonia(13. 3%),cardiovascular disease(16.7%). Conclusions The continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients accompanied with hypoproteinemia are more likely to have inflammation complications and cardiovascular diseases,which should cause more attention on their malnutrition-inflammation- CVD(MIA)syndrome diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To assess the feasibility of secondary check by LinaTech TiGRT treatment planning systems.Methods Choosing the Linatech TiGRT treatment planning system,researched and developed by Linatech company,as the third-party check tools.First,using Linatech TPS for recomputing treatment plans for geometrical phantoms designed in TG-119 and patients.after computation,compared the point dose with the measured data of phantoms (Using chameber No.2571 to measure point dose) and original plans.Using PTW verisoft with a criteria of 3% dose difference and 5 mm distance to agreement to assess the dose distribution on center level.After then,you can assess the accuracy of treatment plans.Results Tiny volume changes were found in ROI,especially in small size phantoms orcuspidal regions.For comparing measured data with recomputed plans and original plans,the dose data were found basically identical in TG-119 phantoms.And for patients,the differences between recomputed plans and AAA original plans or AXB original plans were smaller in breast cancer,but they were even bigger innasopharynx cancer,all patient cases showed a gamma passing rate more than 90%.The gamma passing rate of AAA original plans and AXB original plans were 95.6% and 97.53% for breast cancer,and 94.67% and 96.83% for nasopharynx cancer.Conclusions The method of utilizing the LinaTech TiGRT treatment planning system as a third-party check tools to assess the accuracy of plans is feasible,and the validation process is convenient,but some functions still need to improve and the scope of differences still need more patient cases to determine.

Cardiac arrest in children is one of the most critical clinical situations,posing a serious threat to life.With the progress of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the advanced life support technology,children's cardiac arrest survival rate is higher than before,but many of the survivors suffer from neurological sequelae.Since the causes of out-hospital cardiac arrest and in-hospital cardiac arrest are different,their prognosis and influence factors are also different.Death risk factors for cardiac arrest in children are cancer,hepatic insufficiency,acute renal failure,sepsis,systemic inflammatory response syndrome,etc.Cardiopulmonary resuscitation,as the main emergency treatment of cardiac arrest,is also one of the main factors affecting survival of cardiac arrest child.

The score of Stroke Aphasic Depression Scale (SADQ) decreased significantly in the acupuncture with rehabilitation group compared with the control group (P＜0.01).ConclusionTang's Approach may improve the depression of stroke patients with motor aphasia.

Objective To investigate the relationship between negative acute phase proteins and chronic urticaria (CU).Methods Fifty patients with CU were enrolled into this study,and divided into three grades,i.e.,mild (grade 1),moderate (grade 2) and severe (grade 3) according to symptoms.Twenty-eight health checkup examinees served as the control group.Immunoturbidimetry was performed to determine serum levels of prealbumin (PA) and transferrin (TRF).Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was conducted to measure serum levels of insulinlike growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α).Statistical analysis was carried out to assess differences in these indices between these two groups,the relationship among these indices and between these indices and disease severity.Results Compared with the control group,the patients with CU showed reduced serum levels of PA ((229.99 ± 54.16) vs.(272.06 ± 36.42) mg/L,t =3.667,P ＜ 0.05) and IGF-1 ((177.23 ± 46.48) vs.(239.88 ± 45.16) μg/L,t =5.748,P＜ 0.05),but higher serum levels of TNF-α ((25.39 ± 11.01) vs.(14.13 ± 6.12) ng/L,t =4.989,P＜ 0.05),and similar serum levels of TRF ((2.48 ± 0.49) vs.(2.48 ± 0.25) g/L,P＞ 0.05).The serum level of PA showed a significant negative correlation with that of TNF-α (r =-0.312,P ＜ 0.05),as well as with disease severity (r =-0.635,P ＜ 0.01),whereas the serum level of TNF-α showed a significant positive correlation with disease severity (r =0.409,P ＜ 0.01),and no statistical correlation was found between the remaining indices (all P ＞ 0.05) in the patients with CU.Conclusions Serum levels of some negative acute phase proteins decrease and negatively correlate with disease severity in patients with CU.Acute phase response may be involved in the occurrence of CU.

Objective · To explore the change of metabolomic profiling after erlotinib (anepithelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor)resistance of lung adenocarcinoma cells (PC9-ER), and find the differential metabolome associated witherlotinib resistance. Methods · Metabolic profiling of PC9-ER cells and homologous parent PC9 cells was acquired by the ultraperformance liquid chromatography tandem quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS). The data were analyzed by multi-dimensional statistical methods, such as partial least squares projection to latent structures-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), to select and identify differential metabolites associated with erlotinib resistance. Results · A total of 14 differential metabolites were identified in PC9-ER cells. Seven up-regulated metabolites included N-acetylspermidine, phosphatidylethanolamine, AMP, pantothenic acid,proline, glutamate, and histidine, while seven down-regulated metabolites included citrulline, phosphorylcholine, glutathione, cysteinylglycine, glutathione oxidized, NAD, and S-adenosylmethionine, mainly participating in glutathione metabolism, glutamate metabolism, ammonia recycling, and protein biosynthesis. Conclusion · Metabolic profiling of erlotinib-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells was changed. The information of differential metabolites associated with erlotinib resistance could provide clues for new resistance mechanisms and potential metabolism-related drug targets.

Objective To investigate the influence of VEGF expression on the apoptosis of pancreas subjected to ischemia/reperfu-sion injury. Methods Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (rt = 10). Group A was served as sham-operation group. Groups B were subjected to 30 min of ischemia by clamping of celiac artery and superior mesenterie artery then releasing for 6 hours to produce ischemia/reperfusion injury model. Groups C were treated with VEGF antisense oligodeexynueleotide after isehemia. Rats were sacrificed, the pancreas was obtained to detect the VEGF expression by immunohistochemical method, and apoptosis was determined by TUNEL staining. Results Apoptosis appeared and VEGF expression up regulated in pancreas after Isehemia/reperfusion injury. Comparison between Groups C and Groups B showed a significant down regulation of VEGF expression (P <0. 05) and a notable increase of apoptotic index (P < 0. 05). Conclusion VEGF expression suppresses apeptosis of pancreas during the course of ischemia/reperfusion injury and may play an important role in protection of pancreas against the ischemia/repeffusion injury.
