Glucocorticoids have remained important anti-inflammatory agents in the treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD).However,the use of glucocorticoids can invoke or enhance insulin resistance,which is closely associated with renal injury and serves as an independent risk of the occurrence and progression of CKD.On the other hand,CKD patients may have insulin resistance,which hampers the use of glucocorticoids in these patients.

Objective To compare the prognosis effect of different Helicobacter pylori (Hp)eradication methods in patients with chronic gastritis.Methods One hundred and twenty patients with chronic gastritis diagnosed by gastroscopy and pathology examination were divided into sequential therapy group (36 cases),triple-combined therapy group (34 cases),Hp positive without eradication group (30cases) and Hp negative group (20 cases) according to the Hp infection status.All patients were followed up by gastroscopy,biopsy and rapid urease test before and after therapy.Results The Hp eradication rate in sequential therapy group was 94.44％ (34/36),in triple-combined therapy group was 73.53％ (25/34),and there was statistical difference (x2 =5.775,P =0.016).The symptoms scores and gastroscopy scores after therapy in the four groups were significantly lower than those before therapy,and there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).The symptoms scores and gastroscopy scores after therapy in sequential therapy group were significantly lower than those in triple-combined therapy group,and there were statistical differences (P ＜0.05).The symptoms scores and gastroscopy scores after therapy in sequential therapy group,triple-combined therapy group and Hp negative group were significantly lower than those in Hp positive without eradication group [(0.84 ± 0.60),(1.34 ± 0.59),(1.49 ± 0.62) scores vs.(2.98 ± 0.54) scores,(0.47 ± 0.37),(0.83 ± 0.35),(0.96 ± 0.75) scores vs.(1.22 ± 0.40) scores],and there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The Hp eradication rate of sequential therapy is higher than that of triple-combined therapy.The two therapy methods can both improve the symptoms score and gastroscopy score,but the symptoms after sequential therapy are relieved faster compared with triple-combined therapy.

Serious troubles were caused by the highly heterogeneous cancer cells in clinical cancer treatment.In recent years,molecular characterization of tumors and corresponding individualized cancer management has become hotspots for cancer research.Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are shed from primary solid tumors or metastases into the peripheral blood.CTCs could serve as liquid biopsy for patients with cancer,with non-invasive,real-time and repeatable access.Serial monitoring of the amount and molecular characteristics of CTCs in the blood samples has significant clinical value for prognostic prediction,targeted drugs choice and real-time evaluation of clinical effectiveness in individualized cancer treatment.This review summarizes current methods for the CTC isolation and detection,and discusses the perspectives of CTC analyses in real-time personalized cancer therapy.Some future research directions in this field are proposed.

Sepsis associated encephalopathy (SAE)is the most common form of encephalopathy in the pediatric intensive care units and might appear before other systemic features of sepsis.The pathogenesis of SAE is complex and not clear.SAE causes increased morbidity and mortality but has limited therapeutic options.SAE has become a hot issue in critical care medicine.

Objective To investigate the effect of Bcl-2 gene knockdown on apotosis , proliferation and drug sensitivity of gastric carcinoma HGC-27 cells. Methods The HGC-27 cells were divided into five groups:the untreated control group , the control siRNA group , the specific siRNA targeting Bcl-2 gene group , 5-FU treated group and the combination group (Bcl-2 siRNA and 5-FU treatment). Then flow cytometry and MTT assays were performed to detect the apoptosis and proliferation of HGC-27 cells. The cysteine protease activityand Cytochrome C release level were tested by ELISA method. Results Bcl-2 knockdown enhanced apoptosis and inhibited proliferation of HGC-27 cells. Comparedwith the 5-FU-treated group , the cell apoptosis level, activities of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9, plasma Cytochrome C were significantly increased in the combination group(P <0.01). Conclusion Bcl-2 gene knockdown induced apoptosis, inhibited cell proliferation and enhanced the drug sensitivity of 5-FU in gastric cancer cells , which might be considered as a potential therapeutic strategy forgastric carcinoma.

Activated protein kinase ( AMPK) , an important energy receptor , plays a very important role in regulating organ-ism and the energy metabolism of the cell .AMPK has complex relationship with survival of different types of breast cancer cells .Ac-cording to different conditions , AMPK may exist both anti or promoting effect on tumor .In this review , we summarize the relationship between AMPK and breast cancer related signal pathways , AMP and breast cancer endocrine therapy , breast cancer chemotherapy , ra-diotherapy for breast cancer , treatment of triple negative breast cancer and multi drug resistance of the relationship , we also expound some drugs related to AMPK and used in clinical setting .

Objective To prepare ?-CD(?-cyclodextrin) inclusion compounds and PEG- 4000[poly-(ethylene glycol) 4000] solid dispersions of mefenamic acid (MFA)in order to improve its dissolution. Methods The inclusion compounds of MFA were prepared using saturated ?-CD solution method by orthogonal test. The solid dispersions were prepared using melt-cool process with PEG- 4000 as a carrier. The inclusion compounds and solid dispersions were identified by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) gram and their dissolution rates were tested in pH8.0 buffer solution. Results The suitable condition for preparing ?-CD inclusion compounds of MFA industrially was the weight ratio of 1∶4 between MFA and ?-CD, agitating for 4 h at 70 ℃. The suitable proportion for preparing solid dispersions of MFA was the weight ratio of 1∶4 between MFA and PEG- 4000. Conclusion Dissolution rates of MFA are apparently improved in inclusion compounds and PEG- 4000 solid dispersions, and the solubility of MFA is apparently increased by 2～3 times in inclusion compounds and PEG- 4000 solid dispersions.
