Objective To detect the effect of Rhubarb retention enema on patients with acute pancreatitis(AP).MethodsA total of 84 AP patients were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into the control group(n=42) and Rhubarb enema observation group(n=42). Control group was treated with fasting, continuous gastrointestinal decompression, correcting water electrolyte and acid-base imbalance, with the oral administration of octreotide and gabexatemesilate to inhibit pancreatic secretion and enzyme activity. On the basis of the control group, the observation group was treated with rhubarb retention enema. IL-17, IL-10, and IL-6 expression was detected by ELISA analysis. The clinical effect was compared.Results The clinical effect rate (85.7%vs.71.4%,χ2=2.366,P=0.043) in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group. After treatment of 7 days, IL-17 (13.53 ± 3.16 ng/mlvs. 20.63 ± 4.83 ng/ml,t=2.416) and IL-6 (22.82 ± 4.56 ng/mlvs. 31.59 ± 6.63 ng/ml,t=2.421) expression was significantly lower and IL-10 (16.32 ± 4.15 ng/mlvs. 12.17 ± 3.22 ng/ml,t=2.326) expression was significantly higher in observation group than those in control group(P<0.05). The reduction of blood amylase (125.69 ± 32.47 U/Lvs. 259.26 ± 51.44 U/L,t=7.451) and urine amylase (204.73 ± 43.83 U/Lvs. 334.25 ± 60.18 U/L,t=7.323) in the observation group was significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.01). Abdominal pain and abdominal distension recovery time (4.24 ±1.06 dvs. 3.02 ± 0.62 d,t=2.521), exhaust gas and defecation recovery time (5.42 ± 1.25 dvs. 3.26 ± 0.73 d,t=5.124), temperature recovery time (5.63 ± 1.46 dvs. 4.58 ± 0.92 d,t=2.418), and hospitalization time (18.65 ± 4.16 dvs. 13.78 ± 3.15 d,t=2.386) were higher in control group than those in observation group (P<0.05 orP<0.01).

Objective To evaluate the safety and effectively of transfusion plan guided by POTTS in gynecological patients with Hb level ranged from 60 to 100 g/L. Methods 114 gynecological patients with perioperative Hb level ranged from 60 to 100 g/L were randomly divided into POTTS group ( n=57 ) and control group ( n=57 ) . Patients in POTTS group received transfusion under the guidance of POTTS. Patients in control group received transfusion according to doctor's experience. The proportion of injecting RBCs,the amount of RBCs, the incidence of serious complications and mortality,ICU occupancy rate, postoperative Hb recovery, incision healing, hospitalization time, blood transfusion related costs and costs of hospitalization were observed and compared. Results The transfusion rate and volume in POTTS group were significantly lower than the control group ( P<0. 01 ) . Neither severe com-plications nor any mortality were found in each group. The transfusion costs in POTTS group were significantly less than the control group (P<0. 01). Two groups had no postoperative ICU admission;the postoperative Hb recovery, incision healing, hospitalization time and costs of hospitalization in two groups were not statistically significant. Conclusion POTTS could be safety and effectively used in gynecological patients with Hb level ranged from 60 to 100 g/L, also effectively save the blood, reduce the costs of blood transfusion, not increase perioperative mortality and the incidence of various complications.

Objective To explore the cytotoxicity of the cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) induced by SW480 sonicate sensitized dendritic cells (DC) on the colon cancer cell line SW480. Methods PBMC were separated from the HLA-A*0201 donor and DC were cultured with rhGM-CSF, rhIL-4 and rhTNF-α. The same donor's primary CTL were stimulated by DC loaded with SW480 sonicate. The cytotoxicity of CTL on SW480 (HLA-A*0201 positive) and K562 (HLA-A*0201 negative) was determined by the MTT method. Results The cytotoxicity of the CTL on SW480 was stronger than that on K562 (P <0.05). Conclusion The DC vaccine can stimulate specific CTL which can trigger cytotoxic activity on the target cells and this cytotoxicity is related to MHC restriction.

BACKGROUND: Neural stem cells are a kind of special cells possessing self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation potential. They are ideal carriers for studying the occurence, development and development rule of nervous system and their inherent regulation mechanism of molecular biol ogy and cytology. They have wide applicative prospect in the treatment of nervous system disease and injury. Investigating a set of convenient, effective and useful culture system of neural stem cells cultured in vitro is the prerequisite and basis for application. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of serum culture medium containing basic fibroblast growth factor on the in vitro culture of neural stem cells of mice. DESIGN: Single-sample observation. SETTING: Department of Histology and Embryology, Youjiang Nationality Medical College. MATERIALS: Five 2-month-old Kunming white mice of either sex were used in this experiment. METHODS: This experiment was carried out at the Department of Histology and Embryology, Guangxi Medical University from June 2003 to May 2005. ① The cerebral cortical cells were isolated from cerebral cortex and cultured in vitro of the adult mouse cerebral cortex and made into cell suspension , then put in the DMEM/F12 (1:1)culture medium (containing fetal bovine serum of 0.15 volume fraction, basic fibroblast growth factor of 20 μg/L, penicillin of 100 u/mL and streptomycin of 100 u/mL ) .The attachment culture method was used to acquire the clone cells. ② Expression of nestin antigen of clone cells was detected with immunohistochemical technique. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Morphological observation of cultured cells. ② Observation of cultured cells stained by haematoxylin and eosin . ③ Identification of neural stem cells. RESULTS: ① Morphological observation of cultured cells: After inoculation, most of the cells attached to the wall within 12 hours, cells were thin and flat. 3 days after inoculation, cells began to grow and proliferate. There were several scores to several hundreds of cell clones on the 5th day after inoculation and cells covered 80%-90% of the bottom of the bottle on the 7th to 8th days. After passage, the cells still grew adhesively with regular cellular morphology and clear borderline. ② Observation of cultured cells stained by haematoxylin and eosin: It was shown that the cells presented round or ellipse. There was little cytoplasm, presenting acidophily. Nucleus was big and round, single in the center, deep stained.③ Identification of neural stem cells: Immunofluorescent detection showed that cell nestin antigen positive. CONCLUSION: After cultured in serum culture medium containing basic fibroblast growth factor, cerebral cortex cells possess very strong reproductive activity and express nestin antigen, still possessing the characteristics of neural stem cells.

Objective:To investigate whether there is another resistance mechanism besides mecA gene in oxacillin-resistant(OR) isolates of Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus). Methods:There were 130 oxacillin-resistant phenotype isolates of S. aureus. Of these isolates 125 were resistant to more than 3 of 5 non-?-lactams (gentamicin, ciprofloxacin, clindamycin, tetracycline, erythromycin) (OR-R) and 5 susceptible to more than 3 of the 5 non-?-lactams (OR-S) and 14 were oxacillin-susceptible (OS) phenotype isolates of S. aureus and resistant to more than 3 of 5 non-?-lactams (OS-R). All the strains were detected by the two disks diffusion tests with oxacillin (OXA) and oxacillin/clavulanic acid (OXA/CA), by the three-dimensional extract tests of penicillin (PEN) and OXA for penicillinase and oxacillinase, and by PCR tests for mecA. Results:The 130 OR and 14 OS isolates were all oxacillinase-negative with the two disks diffusion tests, all pencillinase-positive and oxacillinase-negative in the three-dimensional extract tests. The mecA gene was detected in 125 OR-R-type and 2 of the 5 OR-S-type isolates, but was not detected in the other 3 OR-S-type nor in any of the 14 OS-R-type isolates by PCR. Conclusion:In a few Staphylococcus aureus strains which are phenotype of oxacillin-resistant and are susceptible to mostly non-?-lactam agents there are both mecA-negative and oxacillinase-negative strains, 2.3% (3/130) of the OXA-resistant strains. The resistance mechanism may be associated with reduced binding capacity of the modified Preexisting PBPs with OXA.
