Objective To investigate the expression and clinical value of miR-127-3p in plasma of patients with breast cancer .Methods 80 cases of breast patients , 70 cases of benign breast tumor patients and 70 cases of normal control group were recruited .A real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR ) method for detecting miR-127-3p was established; Liner, reproducibility, and specificity were evaluated.In addition, correlations between the relative expression of plasma miR-127-3p and the concentrations of CEA and CA 153 were assessed.the relationship of miR-127-3p expression and clinicopathological features was further determined by Mann-Whitney test.Results The method for detection of plasma miR-127-3p was established.The relative plasma expression of miR-127-3p in breast patients [ 10.561 ( 5.424 -16.465 ) ] was significantly higher than that in benign breast tumor patients [3.015 (1.987-5.035)] (P=0.000 6) and healthy controls [2.375 (1.173-4.370)] (P=0.000 2).However, there was no significant difference between benign tumor patients and healthy control group (P=0.143).Positive relationship was found between the relative expression of miR-127-3p and the concentration of CA153 (R2 =0.457, P=0.003).The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of miR-127-3pwas 0.763, which was higher than that of CEA and CA 153.No significant difference was found between plasma miR-127-3p expression and clinicalpathological features including tumor size , differentiation and tumor node metastasis stage (P>0.05).Conclusions miR-127-3p was increased in breast cancer patients and may be an important diagnostic index for breast cancer .

Objective: To optimize a preparation technology for pyretic arthralgia cataplasma. Methods: The preparation technology were studied by a uniform design experiment in which NP-700, tartaric acid, PVP, dihydroxyaluminum aminoacetate, glycerol, water and medicinal powder were factors and viscosity, infiltration, gel mobility and gel strength were indices. Results: The best ratio of this cataplasma matrix was NP-700:tartaric acid:PVP:dihydroxyaluminum aminoacetate: glycerol:water:powder = 4.0:0.2:1.0:0.1:25.0:35.0:2.0. According to optimized formula, to prepare the poultice, then to spread the poultice uniformly onto non-woven fabrics, cover CPP membrane and pack after 1 week at room temperature. Conclusion: Pyretic arthralgia cataplasma was well moldable and its process technology was feasible.

Abstract: Objective To explore the spatial epidemiological characteristics of severe cases hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Guangxi, China, from 2014 to 2018, and to provide a basis for identifying the high-risk regions as well as the prevention and control of severe cases of HFMD in Guangxi. Methods Spatial-temporal scanning analysis, global and local spatial autocorrelation analysis were used to analyze the spatial clustering of HFMD. The trend surface analysis was used to evaluate the spatial distribution trend of HFMD. Results From 2014 to 2018, the incidence and severe case fatality rates of HFMD were 3.89/100 000 and 4.23%, respectively. Monte Carlo scanning analysis showed that the first cluster region was Cenxi City, the second cluster was mainly concentrated in northwest of Guangxi, and the aggregation time was mainly concentrated in April to May and August to October. The global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the severe HFMD was significant clustering distribution, and the Moran's I coefficients of the sever cases, severe morbidity and severe case fatality rate were 0.088, 0.118, 0.197, respectively (P<0.05). Local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that hotspots of severe HFMD cases were concentrated in the southern Guangxi, mainly in Lingshan County. Anselin local Moran's I clustering and outlier analysis indicated that 5 high-high (H-H) clustering regions for fatality were Lingshan, Pubei, Zhongshan, Zhaoping and Pinggui County. There were 6 high-high (H-H) clustering regions for severe incidence rate, namely Lingshan, Qinnan, Lingyun, Youjiang, Bama Yao Autonomous and Pinggui County, and 1 high-low (H-L) clustering region, Cenxi County. The trend surface analysis showed that the overall number of severe cases of death decreased from east or west to the middle, and increased from north to middle, and then decreased to south. Conclusions Severe HFMD cases in Guangxi have obvious spatial-temporal clustering, and the hop spots are mainly concentrated in southern Guangxi. The prevention and control of HFMD in areas with high incidence of severe cases should be strengthened to reduce the burden of HFMD cases.

Carotid blowout syndrome (CBS) is a fatal complication of head and neck cancer. Endovascular treatment, particularly deconstructive embolization, is effective for CBS, but it might result in thromboembolic events. We report the case of a 57-year-old man with underlying recurrent head and neck cancer who had CBS. The patient received endovascular embolization of the right internal, external, and common carotid arteries. Right internal carotid artery to middle cerebral artery embolic occlusion was noted immediately after the procedure, and left-sided weakness and facial palsy were found. Ipsilateral suprabulbar cervical internal carotid artery puncture was performed under fluoroscopic guidance, and rescue suction thrombectomy was successful. The patient had no significant neurological sequela. Transcarotid intraarterial thrombectomy is a reasonable method for managing postembolization large vessel occlusion, even in the neck, after irradiation.

Objective To estimate the incidence,mortality and 5-year prevalence of brain and neurologic tumors in China,2008.Methods Data from 36 cancer registries in China and from the Third National Death Survey in China were used to estimate the incidence,mortality and 5-year prevalence of brain and neurologic tumors in 2008,using the mathematical models.Prediction on the incidence,and mortality of brain and neurologic tumors in the next 20 years was also carried out.Results In 2008,the incidence of brain and neurologic tumors in China was 66 454 (2.4%) and the incidence rate of age-standardized was 4.4/100 000,ranking tenth among all the cancers.The mortality of brain and neurologic tumors in China was 45 573 ( 2.3%),with mortality rate as 3.0/100 000,which ranked seventh among all the cancers.The 5-year prevalence of brain and neurologic tumors in China was 91 449(2.0%) and the proportion was 8.6/100 000,which ranked twelfth among all the cancers.Incidence rates of brain and neurologic tumors in all the age groups were similar in both sexes,but the rate of incidence increased faster before 40 years old and slowed down thereafter.In the next 20 years,data from the prediction showed that the incidence and mortality of brain and neurologic tumors in China would gradually increase.Conclusion The burden of brain and neurologic tumors was increasing continuously.

Objective To observe toxic effect of deoxynivalenol(DON)on articular cartilage and synovium of New Zealand rabbits's knee ioints.Methods Fifteen male rabbits were divided randomly into 3 groups:control, high-dosage,and low-dosage group.In high-dosage and low-dosage group,saline solution of DON was injected with a dose of 0.10 and 0.05 ms/kg every 48 h into ear vein of rabbits.Specimen of articular cartilage and synovium were through pathologY methods,and IL-1β,TNF-α,NO levels were assayed in joint liquid,after 20 days. Results Morphological changes were observed, such as synovium inflammative infiltration, chondrocytes deformation and necrosis under light microscope.The levels of IL-1β,TNF-α and NO had statistical significance in comDarison between 3 grouPs(F=19.396,18.195,22.136,P<0.05).The levels of IL-1β,TNF-α and NO were significantly higher(all P<0.05),high-dosage[(0.451±0.091),(0.575±0.122)μg/L;(70.27±11.53)μmol/L] and low-dosage group[(0.295±0.107),(0.387±0.131)μg/L;(45.32±12.24)μmol/L]compared with control ((0.1 13±0.049),(0.138±0.087)μg/L;(23.56±9.35)μmoL/L],and high-dosage compared with low-dosage group Conclusions DON results in articular and synovial impairment,which has the symptom similar to osteoarthritis. DON probably causes osteoarthritis.
