Complete surgical resection is very important for the outcome of cancer treatment and prognosis.Radionuclide imaging and optical imaging are effective methods for intra-operative guidance of tumor exploration and resection because of their capability in accurate tumor localization and margin delineation.With the development of more specific molecular probes and more sensitive detectors,advanced imaging methods that combine the advantages of both optical and radionuclide imaging,such as Cerenkov luminescence imaging,will be expected to play a more important role as intra-operative navigating agents for surgical oncology in the near future.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the quality criteria of fever and cough syrup for children.METHODS:Thin-layer chromatography(TLC) was employed to make qualitative determination of herbba ephedrae,radix scutellariae,radix glycyrrhi-zae in fever and cough syrup for children,and high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used to determine the con-tent of amygdaloside in its chief medicinal material,almond.RESULTS:The spots in the TLC of herbba ephedrae,radix scute-llariae,radix glycyrrhizae were in the same color with those in the chromatograms of control articles.The linear range of amygdaloside was 0.198?g～4.954?g(r=1.0 000).CONCLUSION:The present method is simple,accurate sensitiveness and highly reproductive,which can be used for the quality control of this preparation.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a novel class of small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by targeting mRNAs for either cleavage or translational repression.Accumulated studies show that miRNAs aberrantly expressed in tumors are closely related with tumorogenesis and could be potential tumor biomarkers.It will be helpful in the diagnosis,prognosis and(or) predicting treatment response of tumor by imaging miRNAs expression.Several molecular imaging methods,including the optical imaging,radionuclide imaging and multimodality imaging,have been successfully used to visualize miRNAs,miRNAs,a new molecular imaging target,may explore a new field for tumor diagnosis and therapy.

1 ? 25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3(1? 25 (OH)2 D3)induced differentiation of human promyelocytic leukaemia cells ( HL-60 ) into mature myeloid cells in vitro. The ratio of nuclei to cytoplasma decreased; Their nucleoli reduced; Cells became irrgular and extended the pseudopods. 1 ? 25 (OH ) 2 D3 caused significant increase of nitroblue tetrazolium ( NBT ) reduction and ?-non-specific acid esterase (?-NAE ) and acid phosphatase (ACP ) activities. These data and morphological characteristics suggest that HL-60 cells were conclusively identified as monocytes/macrophages. The histogram of DNA distribution ahylyzed by flow cytometry demonstrated G0 + G1 phase increased and S phase increased and S phase decreased remarkably after treatment with l?, 25 ( OH ) 2 D3 as compared with untreated cells.

Objective To investigate the effect of high-flux hemodialysis (HFHD) on advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods 40 MHD patients (MHD group),50 non-dialytic chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (CKD group) and 31 healthy subjects undergoing health examination survey received AOPPs detection.After lowflux hemodialysis (LFHD) for 3 months,HFHD was performed in MHD group for 3 months.Plasma AOPPs and other biochemical indicators were tested at the end of 0,3 and 6 months.AOPPs levels were detected in HFHD and LFHD dialysates.Results Plasma AOPPs level was higher in MHD group than in CKD and control groups,and plasma AOPPs level was higher in CKD group than in control group.Compared with before LFHD in MHD group,AOPPs and triglyceride (TG) levels had no significant differences after LFHD for 3 months(t=0.831,-0.191,both P＞0.05),while plasma cholesterol (CHO) and β2 MG levels were increased in MHD group after LFHD for 3 months(t＝-2.697,10.39,P＜0.05 or 0.001).There were significant differences in plasma AOPPs,TG,β2-MG and CHO levels before versus after HFHD for 3 months (t=4.292,2.271,8.297 and 2.295,P ＜0.001 or 0.05).No AOPPs were detected in HFHD and LFHD dialysates.Conclusions Plasma AOPPs levels are increased in CKD patients.LFHD can not effectively eliminate AOPPs,while long term HFHD can decrease the plasma levels of AOPPs,TG and CHO,and reduce β2-MG accumulation.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics, short-term and long-term outcome, overall survival and prognosis of nasal-type,natural killer T-cell lymphoma(NK/TCL) patients. Methods Clinical data of 45 patients with nasal NK/T cell lymphoma from Jan 2001 to Dec 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The complete remission rate was 53.3% (24/45)and the partial remission rate was 17. 8% (8/45), the overall response rate was 71.1% (32/45). At a median follow-up of 15 months, the 1-year,3-year and 5-year survival rates were 68. 3% ,57. 1% ,and 43. 7% respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that B symptoms was independent prognostic factors of NK/TCL( P = 0. 001 ). Conclusions NK/TCL showed specific characteristics, and the long-term survival rate is still poor. Investigation of optional treatment is needed.

Objective To study the effect of dexmedetomidine(DEX)intrathecal administration on formation of chronic neuropathic pain induced by chronic constriction injury(CCI)in rats. Methods One hundred and twenty healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were divided randomly into four groups(each n=30):sham group, model group,30μg/kg and 60μg/kg DEX intrathecal injection group(D30 group,D60 group). The CCI model was installed by left sciatic nerve ligaturing,sham surgery was done by exposing the sciatic nerve without ligation,and 30 μg/kg,60 μg/kg DEX(each,10 μl)and 10 μl normal saline were given intrathecally in D30,D60 and model groups respectively,all kinds of injection being once a day for 7 days. Hind paw mechanical contraction reflex threshold(MWT),heat-shrinkable reflex latency(TWL)and the score of motor dysfunction of hind extremity in rats were recorded on 1 day before ligation and 1,3,7 days after operation,and before ligation and 1,7,14 and 21 days after operation,the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin(IL-1βand IL-6)in intumescentia lumbalis were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Compared with before operation,there were no significant differences in values of MWT,TWL,the motor function evaluation,TNF-α, IL-1β,and IL-6 at each time points(all P>0.05);however,with the prolongation of time,MWT and TWL were decreased,and the motor function evaluation,TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 were increased in all the other groups. Compared with those of the sham group,MWT and TWL were declined,and the motor function evaluation,TNF-α, IL-1β,and IL-6 were elevated in model group. Compared with those of model group,30μg/kg and 60μg/kg DEX could significantly raise MWT(g)and TWL(s),obviously improve motor function and remarkably decrease the contents of TNF-α(pg/mg),IL-1β(pg/mg)and IL-6(pg/mg)in the spinal cord of CCI rats from 1 day after operation. And the changes in 60 μg/kg DEX group were more significant than those in 30 μg/kg DEX intrathecal injection group〔postoperative 1 day MWT:39.3±1.3 vs. 20.3±2.2,TWL:10.9±0.4 vs. 8.2±1.1,motor function score:2.00±0.00 vs. 2.00±0.75,TNF-α:33±7 vs. 125±18,IL-1β:108±12 vs. 203±34,IL-6:156±39 vs. 405±75,all P<0.05〕. Conclusions The DEX intrathecal administration has certain degree of dose-dependent therapeutic effect on hyperalgesia in CCI rat models. The mechanism is related to the amelioration of inflammatory reaction at the lumbar segment of spinal cord.

Objective:To appraise the current situation and the developmental trend of antidepressant drugs in our hospital.Method:The antidepressant drugs in our hospital during 2004-2007 were analyzed retrospectively in terms of drug varieties,consumption quantity,consumption sum,DDDs,daily cost,etc.Result:The consumption sum and DDDs of the antidepressant drugs increased but their daily cost decreased.The consumption sum of the antidepressant drugs decreased in 2006 because of the measure of the drug proportion control.Conclusion:Paroxetine and fluoxetine dominates the first place in terms of clinical application of antidepressants.Furthermore,the application of the new type of antidepressants has been on the rise.

Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were treated with GSH for 12 weeks.The results showed that GSH significantly improved the expressions of NF-KB and inducible nitrie oxide synthase and ameliorated the myocardial tissue injury.
