aspartate specific proteinase-3 (Caspase-3) and Caspase-8 were detected by Western blot.The vitality of cells was detected by CCK-8 and the vitality of Caspase-8 was detected by Caspase-Glo assays

Background and purpose:Reduced peripheral blood platelet count is a common toxicity in patients with hematological malignancy after chemotherapy.The purpose of this study was to observe the eff icacy and safety of recombinant human thrombopoietin(rhTPO)in the treatment of thrombocytopenia induced by chemotherapy.Methods:A total of 25 patients with solid tumor,who developed thrombocytopenia induced by chemotherapy(PLT≤70?109/L) after the f irst cycle of chemotherapy(control group),was studied by self-cross control.6-24 h after the second cycle of chemotherapy(treatment group) with identical scheme of the f irst cycle chemotherapy,they were given subcutaneous injection of rhTPO 15 000 U/d for 7 to 14 consecutive days or until platelet count ≥100?109/L or the increasing count ≥50?109/L.Results:The mean platelet count of the patients after rhTPO treatment was higher at different time points of the treatment group than that of the control group.The minimal PLT count of the treatment group and the control group after chemotherapy were(80.3?39.30)?109/L and(34.7?21.2)?109/L(P0.05).The time of PLT count to recover was found to be more than 75?109/L and 100?109/L in treatment group after chemotherapy was(9.8?4.2)d and(12.8?3.6)d,compared to(19.1?4.5)d and(24.3?1.4)d(P

Objective To investigate the relationship between HLA-DRB1 alleles and vascular anomalies in infants of Han nationality in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.Methods This study included 145 infants with vascular anomalies (99 cases of hemangioma (hemangioma group) and 46 cases of vascular malformation (vascular malformation group)) and 105 healthy infants (control group) of Han nationality residing in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.The genotypes of HLA-DRB1 alleles were determined by using PCR-sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP).Chi-square test was performed to analyze the difference in the frequency of HLA-DRB1 alleles between these groups by using the SPSS 16.0 software.Results There were significant differences in the frequency of HLA-DRB1*0901,*1401 and *16 alleles among the hemangioma group,vascular malformation group and control group (x2 =13.05,12.79,10.36,respectively,all P ＜ 0.01).Paired comparison revealed significant differences in the frequency of HLA-DRB1*0901 allele between the hemangioma group and vascular malformation group (RR =4.84,P ＜ 0.01) as well as between the hemangioma group and control group (RR =3.21,P ＜ 0.01),and in the frequency of HLA-DRB1*16 allele between the hemangioma group and control group (RR =2.25,P ＜ 0.01) as well as between the vascular malformation group and control group (RR =2.60,P ＜ 0.01).The frequency of HLA-DR*1401 allele was significantly lower in the hemangioma group than in the control group (RR =0.30,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions HLA-DRB1*0901 and *16 may be the predisposing genes for hemangioma and vascular anomalies respectively,while HLA-DRB1*1401 appears to be protective against hemangioma,in infants of Han nationality in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and renal morphological changes of the patients with urinary tract infection associated ureteral stent.Methods From Oct.2012 to May.2013,21 patients were divided into three groups depending on the different conditions:Group A (n=7):patients who had febrile urinary tract infections associated with ureteral stents; Group B (n =7):patients with ureteral stents but no fever; Group C (n=7):patients who had febrile urinary tract infections but no ureteral stent.The clinical data,laboratory data and 99Tcm-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) renal scintigraphy results were recorded prospectively and analyzed.Results In Group A,there were two patients had flank pain and positive costovertebral angle percussion tcnderness.The mean value of white blood cells and Hs-CRP of Group A and Group C were obviously higher than Group B (P＜0.05).The ratios of pyuria were 100.0％,71.4％ and 100.0％ in Group A,B and C.The ratios of positive urine bacteuria culture were 100.0％,42.9％ and 100.0％ in Group A,B and C.The results of 99Tcm-DMSA renal scintigraphy demonstrated the decreased uptake in the different portion of the kidneys on the sides of ureteral stents inserted in all the patients in Group A but no such changes in Group B and Group C.Conclusions 99Tcm-DMSA renal scintigraphy can be used to judge the status of urinary tract infection associated ureteral stent.The febrile urinary tract infection associated with ureteral stents always means pyelonephritis occurs and prompt treatment must be given.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the economics of caspofungin vs. voriconazole in initial empirical antifungal therapy of fe-brile neutropenia(FN). METHODS:Based on two international multiple center clinical trials about caspofungin vs. voriconazole in initial empirical antifungal therapy of FN,combined with domestic clinical experts'opinions about drug selection,a decision tree model was developed. TreeAge Pro 2011 software was used to analyze the cost and effectiveness of 10-day therapy of caspofungin or voriconazole as initial empirical antifungal therapy. RESULTS:The direct medical cost of caspofungin group was lower than that of voriconazole group(52826.71 yuan vs. 58246.70 yuan). The success rate and survival rate were higher than voriconazole group(33.95% vs. 25.63%、92.36% vs. 91.87%). Whether the success rate or the survival rate of patients as the effect indicators, cost-effectiveness ratio of caspofungin group was lower than that of voriconazole group. Moreover,incremental cost effectiveness ra-tio and sensitivity analysis confirmed this conclusion. CONCLUSIONS:Caspofungin has more advantages than voriconazole in cost and effectiveness as initial empirical antifungal therapy in patients with FN.

Objective To observe the treatment effect of early rehabilitation training on acute cerebral infarction patients with hemiplegia,and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods One hundred cases of acute cerebral infarction hemiplegia in our hospital from January 2013 to June 2016 were selected and divided into the rehabilitation training group (50 cases) and control group (50 cases).The control group was given the routine medication therapy and the rehabilitation training group was given early rehabilitation training on the basis of conventional medication therapy.The functional independence assessment (FIM),Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and modified Barthel index (MBI) were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of early rehabilitation training.The level of stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) in peripheral blood was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,and the level of CD34+KDR+ in peripheral blood was measured by flow cytometry.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the FIM total score,FIM sports function score,FMA score,MBI score,SDF-1α and CD34+KDR+ levels before treatment between the rehabilitation training group and the control group (P>0.05).After treatment,the FIM total score,FIM sports function score,FMA score,MBI score and SDF-1α and CD34+KDR+ levels of the rehabilitation training group were higher than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The effect of early rehabilitation training on acute cerebral infarction patients with hemiplegic is remarkable.The mechanism may be related to promoting the expression of SDF-1α and CD34+KDR+ in peripheral blood.

Objective To set up an apoptosis model of prostate cancer cell line and to clone and study the apoptosis related genes. Methods An apoptosis model of prostate cancer cell line DU-145 has been set up through induction by all transretinoic acid (ATRA).During the process of cell apoptosis the apoptosis-related gene was cloned by means of improved PCR-based subtractive hybridization from the apoptosis prostate cancer cell line DU-145 prostate cancer cells. Results During the process of DU-145 cell apoptosis,c-erb B-2 expression,TNF genes and some unknown apoptosis-related gene were observed.This has been accepted by Genebank,the accession number being AF174394. Conclusions ATRA-induced apoptosis of DU-145 cells is a complex process with multiple genes involved,some of which being unknown yet.
