Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of primary signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma of lung. Methods:The clinical features of 22 patients with primary signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma of lung from the year 1981 to 2007 were analyzed retrospectively and made a statistical analysis on the prognostic factors. Results:Postoperative pathologic examination was an important method to confirm the primary signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma of lung and surgery was the main therapeutic approach. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 63.0%, 53.3%, and 37.7%, respectively. Statistical analysis indicated that smoking, tumor size, complete resection, and tumor staging were the independent prognostic factors for patients with primary signet-ring adenocarcinoma of lung.Conclusion:The primary signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma of lung has higher malignancy. Invasion and migration frequently occur. Its prognosis is poor.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of chest multi-slice computed tomography angiography (MSCTA) as a preoper-ative examination for lung cancer patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy. Methods: Sixty lung cancer patients formed the study population and were randomly divided into 2 groups of 30 cases each. In the experimental group, CTA images of the tumors and pulmo-nary artery, bronchial artery, pulmonary vein were acquired, analyzed, and post-processed using VR to determine the anatomical rela-tionship between vessels and tumors. Pulmonary lobectomy followed. Cases in the control group underwent pulmonary lobectomy with-out guidance by chest MSCTA. Operation times and amounts of operative blood loss were compared between the two groups. Results:Significant differences between groups in terms of operation time (study group vs. control group, 199±55.7 vs. 231.5±51.2(min);P=0.02) and amount of operative blood loss (study group vs. control group, 318.33±99.6 vs. 431.7±89.5(mL), P<0.01) were observed. Val-ues of operation time and amount of contrast agents in the study group were consistently lower than those in the control group. Conclu-sion:Chest MSCTA can shorten the operation time and reduce the amount of operative blood loss during pulmonary lobectomy. Thus, the technique has significant clinical value.

Objective:To investigate the role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) associated lung injury in mice.Methods:Totally 32 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n=8/per group): wild type control group (WT+CON group), wild type SAP group (WT+SAP group), MIF gene knockout control group (KO+CON group), and MIF gene knockout SAP group (KO+SAP group). SAP model was established by intraperitoneal injection of L-arginine (4 mg/g). The expression of serum amylase, IL-6, TNF-α and MIF were detected by ELISA. The pathological changes of pancreatic and lung tissues were observed by HE staining. The expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of NF-κB in lung tissue was detected by Western blot. For measurement data, t test was used for comparison between two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups. Results:Compared with the WT+CON group, pathological score of pancreatic and lung injury, serum amylase, TNF-α and IL-6 expression in serum and lung tissues were significantly increased in the WT+SAP group ( P<0.05), while the above indexes were significantly decreased in the KO+SAP group ( P<0.05). In addition, the expression of NF-κB protein in KO+SAP group was significantly lower than that in the WT+SAP group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:MIF gene knockout can alleviate severe acute pancreatitis associated acute lung injury in mice, and its mechanism may be related to NF-κB.

The clinical features of 120 severe cases with hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) were retrospectively analyzed compared with those of the regular cases. Clinical data showed that the age of mostsevere cases ranged from 1-3 years. Sustained high fever ( 55% ) , hypertension ( 40% ) , fewer rash (73.3%) were important clinical features. Lethargy, somnolence or restlessness (70. 8% ), vomiting (30. 8% ) were early signs of central nervous system ( CNS) ; and the CNS involvement in severe cases was characterized by body trembling or muscle spasm (80% ). High white cell count(75. 8% ) and high blood glucose levels(32. 5% ) were important makers to diagnose the severe HFMD at early stage. There were significant differences in presentation of above features between severe cases and regular cases of HFMD ( P < 0. 01 or P < 0. 05 ) . Early treatment with mannitol, gamma globulin and glucocorticoids were effective, no death was reported and no side effects were found in this case series.

Objective To screen the critical genes related to the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma ( ESCC ) by weighted gene co-expression network analysis ( WGCNA ) and to verify by experiments.Methods Gene expression data of ESCC were downloaded from gene expression omnibus (GEO) database based on gene chip platform ( GPL) 570, GPL571, GPL96/97 or GPL14613 platform, respectively. Meanwhile, the obtained differentially expressed genes together with gene expression data of 81 ESCC patients from the cancer genome atlas ( TCGA ) and clinical data were analyzed by WGCNA to set up co-expression networks including mRNA and microRNA ( miRNA ) . The expression of miRNA in ESCC tissues and paracancerous tissues was examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR ) .And the expression of target protein Kruppel like factor 4 ( KLF4 ) and desmocollin 2 ( DSC2 ) were detected by immunohistochemistry .After ESCC cell line ECA-109 cells were transfected with miRNA-92b-3p mimic, cell cycle was tested by flow cytometry ,the cell invasion and migration ability was measured by Transwell chamber assay and scratch-wound assay.The expression of KLF4 and DSC2 was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy and Western blotting .The target genes were verified by luciferase assay .T-test, rank sum test, chi-square test and Pearson correlation analysis were performed for statistical analysis .Results A total of 4023 differential expression gene ( DEG) and 328 differential expression miRNA ( DEM) were screened and 11 gene modules were set up by WGCNA .Among them, the brown modules were negatively associated with tumor grade and T stage (r=-0.340 and -0.268, P=0.002 and 0.016).Meanwhile, has-miR-92b and the potential target genes KLF4 and DSC2 were all in the brown module .Furthermore, the results of RT-PCR showed the expression of miRNA-92b-3p in ESCC tissues was higher than that in paracancerous tissues (3.052(1.652, 5.371) vs.0.985(0.558, 2.032)), and the difference was statistically significant (Z=-4.021,P<0.01). The results of immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the positive rates of KLF 4 and DSC2 in ESCC tissues were 43.3%(13/30) and 20.0%(6/30), respectively, which were lower than those of paracancerous tissues (70.0%(21/30) and 63.3%(19/30)), and the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =4.344 and 1.589, both P<0.05).After ECA-109 cells were transfected with miRNA-92b-3p mimics, the percentage of cells at G0/G1 phase decreased ((63.71 ±2.83)%vs.(54.62 ±4.00)%) and the percentage of cells at the S phase and G2/M phase increased ((31.81 ±2.88)%vs.(41.20%±2.87)%, and (3.87 ±1.75)%vs. (8.10 ±1.71)%, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant (t =3.215, 4.000 and 2.998;P=0.032, 0.016 and 0.040).The invasion and migration ability of the cells were significantly improved (79.67 ±27.54 vs.280.33 ±46.18, (69.72 ±3.91)% vs.(84.90 ±5.25)%), and the differences were statistically significant (t=6.465 and 4.019, P=0.003 and 0.016).The results of Western blotting indicated that, compared with control mimic group , the expression of KLF4 and DSC2 was both dramatically downregulated after transfected with miRNA-92b-3p mimics transfected (1.00 ±0.23 vs.0.42 ±0.03, 1.00 ±0.20 vs.0.55 ± 0.21), and differences were statistically significant (t=4.470 and 5.493, P=0.042 and 0.032).The results of luciferase assay demonstrated that miRNA-92b-3p could directly bind KLF4 and DSC2. Conclusion WGCNA is an efficient systemic biological approach by which miRNA-92b-3p is identified as a new cancer-promoting gene .

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Reduning injection for treating community-acquired pneumonia.
METHODLiteratures about randomized controlled trials of Reduning injection for treating community-acquired pneumonia were reviewed. The methodological quality of the trials was assessed by the Jadad scale, and evaluation was performed.
RESULTSeven RCTS were included. Reduning combined group (Reduning injection plus antibiotics and basic therapy) was compared with antibiotics group (antibiotics plus basic therapy). Meta-analysis showed that the relative risk (RR) for the total cure rate was 1.34, and 95% confidence interval (CI) was [1.19, 1.51]; RR for the total effective rate was 1.10, and 95% CI was [1.06, 1.15]. The weighted mean difference (WMD) in disappearance time of fever between the two groups was - 1.42, and 95% CI was [- 2.58, -0.26]; The WMD between the two groups for the total obvious effect rate of cough and expectoration were - 2.36, and 95% CI was [- 3.41, - 1.31]; Improve the time of pulmonary rales MD -2.30, 95% CI [- 2.61, - 2.00]; The WMD between the two groups in absorption of chest x-ray shadow was -2.36 and 95% CI [-2.52, -2.20]. Serious systematic adverse reactions had not been reported in the trials.
CONCLUSIONThe effect of combined therapy with Reduning injection plus antibiotics and basic therapy is better than that of antibiotics plus basic therapy. Reduning injection can improve the symptoms of cough and expectoration, shorten the fever time and facilitate the absorption of chest x-ray shadow without any significant adverse reactions. However, further high quality trials are needed.
