Objective To compare the effect of Baikerui compound lysostaphin (FE complex phosphoesterasum) disinfectant and povidone iodine in treatment of burn wound infection resulted from gram-positive (G ±) coccus.Methods The study involved 60 patients with superficial second degree burns (1％-5％ TBSA； age range of 18-50 years).All the patients received bacterial culturing of wound secretions prior to treatment.Every 20 patients were indentified with infection of staphylococcus aureus (SA),staphylococcus epidermidis (SE),and enterococcus (EC) respectively and randomized into control group and experiment group,with 10 patients per group.Patients allocated to the experiment group were covered with four-layer sterile gauze soaked into the Baikerui compound lysostaphin disinfectant,while the patients in the control group were treated with four-layer sterile gauze soaked into the povidone iodine.Dressing was changed once a day.Wound culturing was performed again at each day of the 5-day treatment.Wound healing was compared among each group.Results SA wound infection turned negative for all the 10 patients in experimental group and three patients in control group (P ＜ 0.01).SE wound infection turned negative for all the 10 patients in experimental group and six patients in control group (P ＜ 0.05).EC wound infection turned negative for nine patients in experimental group and seven patients in control group (P ＞ 0.05).Mean wound healing time was (10.87 ± 1.93) days for experimental group and (13.31 ± 2.89) days for control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Baikerui compound lysostaphin disinfectant can effectively prevent burn wound infection with common G + coccus and accelerate wound healing.

Objective To investigate DNA double-strand breaks and radiosensitization in renal carcinoma 786-O cells induced by fludarabine (FA) combined with different ionizing radiations.Methods The 786-O cells were exposed to FA combined with X-ray or heavy ion beam irradiation.Flow cytometry was used to evaluate the percentage of γH2AX-positive cells and cell cycle.The neutral comet assay was used to detect DNA double-strand breaks.The colony-forming assay was used to evaluate the effects of different treatments on cell survival.Comparison between groups was made by one-way analysis of variance or Dunnet' s t test.Results Compared with FA alone or irradiation alone,FA combined with different ionizing radiations increased DNA double-strand breaks as shown by significantly increased levels of γH2AX (P=0.007,0.001);FA combined with heavy ion beam irradiation lead to a cell cycle block at the radiosensitive G2/M phase and significantly increased the expression of γH2AX in the G2/M phase (P=0.000,0.000);the neutral comet assay revealed that FA combined with irradiation significantly increased DNA sublethal damage (P=0.020,0.060);FA significantly reduced the colony-forming rate after irradiation (P=0.000,0.030;0.001,0.040).Conclusions FA enhances the effects induced by X-ray and heavy ion beam irradiation with different properties.Particularly,FA substantially enhances the cell death induced by heavy ion beam irradiation.

Objective:To study the distribution of flurbiprofen axetil ( FA) microemulsion in rats and evaluate the targeting prop-erty to traumatic inflammation tissue. Methods:Traumatic injury model rats were established by hip surgery on the rat right thigh mus-cle and randomly divided into 2 groups:microemulsion group and solution group. Serums and tissues of rats were collected at 15, 30, 60, 120 and 240min after administration (iv. 5 mg·kg-1). A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection was developed to study the concentration of flurbiprofen in biological samples. Results: The elimination of flurbiprofen axetil microe-mulsion from blood and tissues was slower than flurbiprofen solution. At each 5 time points, drug concentrations of microemulsion group in injury muscle were higher than in normal muscle (P<0. 05), while solution group had no significant difference(P>0. 05). Micro-emulsion group injury muscle Te(targeting efficiency) =12. 21%, and the solution group Te =3. 97%. The Re (relative uptake rate) of injury muscle was 4. 15. Conclusion:The flurbiprofen axetil microemulsion has the targeting property to traumatic injury tissues.

Lung cancer is currently one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. The occurrence and development of lung cancer, especially non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), are closely related to the abnormal expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). lncRNA with a transcript of more than 200 nucleotides is involved in chromatin modification, transcription activation, transcription interference and other regulatory processes, and has varying degrees of regulation on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of tumor cells. It is characterized by up-regulation or down-regulation of expression. At present, there are a large number of studies on lncRNA, because lncRNA has considerable application prospects in the diagnosis, clinical treatment, drug resistance research and prognosis evaluation of NSCLC. In this paper, the overview of lncRNA, the up-regulation or down-regulation of NSCLC-related lncRNA expression, NSCLC clinical treatment and drug-resistant lncRNA were summarized.

Focus on the defects of the extraction method of velocity pulsated signals in the velocity spectrum image of pulsed Doppler ultrasounds (such as the limited data, great amount of work and low reproducibility), we combine the earlier research results and the basic rules of the velocity spectrum image, and employing the visual basics plateau, to design and develop a software to extract the velocity signals from the spectrum image automatically. Compare the mean velocity and RNS between the PIV and the PDU resulting from the method, the correlations are r = 0.93 and r = 0.78 respectively. The study reveals the software increase the amount of valid data, decrease the amount of work and increase reproducibility of the signals extraction. The method may be an effective way to analyse the velocity spectrum image of PDU in clinic.
