Objective To examine the neuroprotective effect of pulsed magnetic field in a animal focal cere-bral ischemica-reperfusion injury model. Methods Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomized into 3 groups, a sham-operation group, a model group and a pulsed magnetic field group, with rats 16 in each group. Mid-dle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) method was employed to establish the focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion inju-ry model in rats of model group and pulsed magnetic field group. Rats in sham-operation group was subject to the same operation procedure but not underwent ischemia-reperfusion. The infarction volume, histopathological damage and expressions of IGF-1 in ischemic brain tissue were investigated to evaluate the effect of pulsed magnetic field. Results The infarction volume was reduced, histopathological damage alleviated and expressions of IGF-1 in ische-mic brain tissue elevated in the pulsed magnetic field group as compared against the model group (P<0.05). Con-clusions Pulsed magnetic field might provide neuro-protection against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective To compare the impact of propofol and sevoflurane on thermoregulation in children undergoing orheopaedic surgery.Methods Sixty-eight children scheduled to undergo ortho-paedic surgery were randomly allocated to receive propofol (group P)and sevoflurane(group S)anes-thesia,34 cases in each group.Tympanic temperature was recorded 5 minutes before (T0 )and 5 min (T1 ),1 5 min (T2 ),30 min (T3 ),45 min (T4 ),60 min (T5 ),75 min (T6 ),90 min (T7 ),105 min (T8 )and 120 min (T9 )after anesthesia.Total fluid intake,duration of surgery,duration of anesthe-sia,the incidence of hypothermia,and the incidence of shivering were also recorded.Results Com-pared with T0 ,in both groups body temperature declined at T1-T8 .There was no difference between the two groups in total fluid intake,duration of surgery,duration of anesthesia and the incidence of shivering.Compared with group P,children in group S had a higher incidence of hypothermia(8 vs 1). Children in group S had lower temperature,which had statistical significance at T7 and T8 (P <0.05). Conclusion The core temperature of children undergoing orthopaedic surgery showed a trend of in-crease after the first fall in the surgery.Compared with propofol,sevoflurane anesthesia is more likely to lead to the incidence of hypothermia in children undergoing orthopaedic surgery in 90 min after in-duction of anesthesia.

Objective:To explore the expression and location of TLR5 and NLRC4 on different breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231,MCF-7 and MDA-MB-435 and TLR5 activation in breast cancer cell line by recombinant flagellin . Methods:The mRNA level of TLR5 and NLRC4 in MDA-MB-231, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-435 cell were detected with quantitative Real-time PCR and TLR5 expression and location in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cell were detected with Flow cytometry. Induction,expression,purification and i-dentification of recombiant flagellin,including FliC (activating both TLR5 and NLRC4),FliC△90-97(unable to activate TLR5),FliC-L3A (unable to activate NLRC4),FliC△90-97:L3A (unable to activate both TLR5 and NLRC4). 1 μg/ml recombinant flagellin were used to stimulate MCF-7 cell lines,12 h later,the supernate were collected,and ELISA was performed to assess the secretion of IL-8. Results:The mRNA level of TLR5 in MCF-7 cell was 1 700 folds higher than that of MDA-MB-435. TLR5 was expressed in MCF-7 cell surface and ctyosol,while expressed only in cytosol in MDA-MB-231 cell. FliC and FliC-L3A,which were able to activate TLR5 pathway,stimualted MCF-7 cell line to secret IL-8,but FliC△90-97 and FliC△90-97:L3A did not. Conclusion:TLR5 and NLRC4 have been expressed in different breast cancer lines,but there exists difference on the expression level and location of TLR5. Expression level of TLR5 and NLRC4 in MCF-7 cell were higher than other breast cancer lines. TLR5 receptor which is expressed on the surface of breast cancer cell can be activated by flagellin,and these work also provide us experimental basis to further understand the impact of TLR5 activation on breast cancer cell proliferation.

Objective To investigate and compare the clinical effects of radiochemotherapy alone or in combination with adoptive immunotherapy with cytokine-induced killer ( CIK) cells in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods The clinical data of 125 patients with locally advanced NSCLC who were admitted from 2011 to 2012 and did not undergo surgery were analyzed retrospectively, and among these patients, 102 received radiochemotherapy alone ( control group) , and 23 received radiochemotherapy combined with adoptive immunotherapy with CIK cells ( multimodality therapy group) .The two groups were matched at a ratio of 1:2 using propensity score matching, and the factors considered included tumor stage, radiochemotherapy regimen, and outcome after radiochemotherapy.Then 59 patients ( 22 from the multimodality therapy group and 37 from the control group) were enrolled, and survival and tumor control were compared between the two groups.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and the log-rank test was used for survival difference analysis and univariate prognostic analysis.Results The 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival ( OS) rates were 73%, 32%, and 16%, respectively, in the control group, and 91%, 59%, and 41%, respectively, in the multimodality therapy group ( P=0.030) .The 1-, 2-, and 3-year progression-free survival rates were 61%, 21%, and 17%, respectively, in the control group, and 45%, 10%, and 10%, respectively, in the multimodality therapy group ( P=0.538) .As for the patients with stage ⅢB NSCLC, those in the multimodality therapy group had a significantly higher 3-year OS rate than those in the control group (47%vs.11%, P=0.026). In the patients receiving sequential chemoradiotherapy, those in the multimodality therapy group had a significantly higher 3-year OS rate than those in the control group ( 46%vs.11%, P=0.003) .As for the
patients with squamous cell carcinoma, those in the multimodality therapy group had a significantly higher 3-year distant metastasis-free survival rate than those in the control group ( 73%vs.22%, P=0.029) .The two groups showed similar incidence rates of adverse events, and compared with the control group, the multimodality therapy group had a lower incidence rate of radiation pneumonitis (9%vs.15%, P=0.889) and a higher incidence rate of radiation esophagitis (12%vs.7%, P=0.097).Conclusions Some patients with locally advanced NSCLC can benefit from radiochemotherapy combined with adoptive immunotherapy with CIK cells, but the intended population, timing, and dose safety still need further investigation.
