Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2015;(18):2809-2813
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures treated by percutaneous kyphoplasty combined zoledronic acid.Methods Patients admitted to our hospital′s depart-ment of orthopedics from February 2010 to December 2013 were reviewed,and 67 patients underwent percutaneous ky-phoplasty were admitted.According to the application of zoledronic acid or not,they were divided into 2 groups,with 39 cases and 28 cases,respectively.On 67 patients before surgery,3 days after surgery,the end of follow -up surgery, VAS,ODI,vertebral height average recovery rate and Cobb angle were compared.The BMD was also compared before and after surgery.Results There was no difference between the two groups in all above indices before treatment(t =0.308,P =0.758;t =0.476,P =0.635;t =0.397,P =0.693;t =0.342,P =0.733).3 days after surgery,the levels of VAS,ODI and Cobb angle all decreased(t =25.820,P <0.001 vs.t =24.988,P <0.001;t =16.801,P <0.001 vs.t =17.008,P <0.001;t =9.717,P <0.001 vs.t =7.525,P <0.001),while vertebral height average recovery rate were increased in both groups(t =8.300,P <0.001 vs.t =6.363,P <0.001 ),but there was no difference between the two groups(t =0.177,P =0.861;t =0.568,P =0.572;t =0.453,P =0.652;t =0.508,P =0.613).In the end of follow -up surgery,there was a significant difference between the two groups(t =4.779,P <0.001;t =7.041,P <0.001;t =2.517,P =0.014;t =2.406,P =0.019).There was no difference between the two groups in BMD(t =0.479,P >0.05),but it came to be a difference between the two groups in the end(t =2.710,P =0.009), although there was no difference in secondary fracture(23.1% vs.7.1%,χ2 =3.016,P =0.082).Conclusion Per-cutaneous kyphoplasty combined zoledronic acid has an excellent effect on osteoporotic vertebral compression frac-tures,it is worthy promoting.
2.Update of the relationship between the insulin-like growth factor system and primary adrenocortical tumor
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2003;0(10):-
THe insulin-like growth factor(IGF) system,a very important polypeptide growth hormone,has been found to have some relation with primary adrenocortical tumorigenesis and modulates its growth.This article reviews the general biological characteristics of IGF and the relations of the IGF system with the normal adrenal cortex and primary adrenocortical tumor.It also and discuss the clinical meaning of its possible presence in the primary adrenocortical tumor.
3.The research progress of protein lysine succinylation
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2016;29(3):332-336
Recently the lysine succinylation was discovered in vivo, and it was demonstrated to be widely involved in cell dif-ferentiation, cell metabolism and other important physiological activities.Lysine succinylation has become the forefront of life science research.Scientists have provided a lot of evidences that proteins in prokaryotes and eukaryotes are widely succinylated, without which the central metabolism and intermediary metabolism of many metabolic enzymes are disrupted.To better understand the importance of Succinylation in vivo, protein-succinyl modification of the current research and the latest developments are reviewed, which summarize succinylated protein lysine sites in the center of important physiological metabolic pathways, diseases and other pathological conditions.
4.Research progress on application of radiomics in radiotherapy of head and neck cancer
Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2021;30(1):98-101
Head and neck cancer presents with complex anatomy and high intratumoralheterogeneity. Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments. The therapeutic strategy and prognostic evaluation in head and neck cancer patients traditionally depend on TNM stage, lacking of individual information. Radiomics can extracts high-throughput image features relevant to the biology of tumors, which provides a non-invasive and quantitative method to evaluate the overall tumor heterogeneity and also offers a novel perspective for precision radiotherapy. The research progresses on the application and chanllenges of radiomics in the radiotherapy for head and neck cancer were summarized in this review.

Objective To investigate the effect of amniotic membrane on the proliferation of YAC-1 in vitro. Methods The YAC-1 cells were cultured with amniotic membrane and their proliferation were observed by MTT automated colorimetry on the lst day, the 3rd day and the 7th day respectively.Results Amniotic membrane could significantly enhance the proliferation of YAC-1 on the lst day, the 3rd day and the 7th day respectively after having been seeded (P<0.01).Conclusion Amniotic membrane can enhance the proliferation of tumor cells (YAC-1), which should be paid attention to during amniotic membrane transplantation for treating ocular surface lesion caused by epibulbar tumors.

Objective To investigate the effects of methylation of p73 gene on pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.Methods The restriction endonuclease enzyme digestion combined with PCR was used to detect p73 gene and methylation in 42 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.Results Methylation of p73 gene was found in 28.6%(12/42).Patients without methylation of p73 gene had a higher complete remission rate of first chemotherapy and a longer survival time than those with methylation of p73 gene.Conclusion Methylation of p73 gene probably plays a role in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia and may have clinical significance in predicting prognosis of ALL.

Objective To assess the prevalence and related factors of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in troops stationed in southern China. Methods An investigation with validated questionnaire and stratified random sampling method was carried out in troops stationed in southern China to survey the prevalence of GERD and its related factors. According to the definition of reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ) score,the severity and frequency of the dominant symptoms of GERD,such as heartburn,acid regurgitation,food reflux and non-cardiogenic chest pain were scored. People with score equaled to and higher than 12 (Sc≥12) were assigned to patient group,and those with score lower than 12 (Sc0.05). Subjects in the patient group had a higher incidence of abdominal distension,belching,nausea,vomiting,abdominal pain compared with control group. A higher incidence of laryngitis,pharyngitis and ulcerative stomatitis (P

The innervation and distribution of 5-HT cells in gastric wall of rabbit and rat were studied by means of histochemical techniques of monoamine fluorescence and cholinesterase. And the morphological relation between them was investigated using the consecutive method for demonstrating the fluorescence and ChE on the same section. At the fundic gland, 5-HT cells were in contact with both the adrenergic and cholinergic axonal terminals. There are adrenergic and cholinergic terminals to innervate the gland cells of fundic gland, partial fundic gland the dual axonal terminal are identical in their localization and morphological outline. The loyer of muscle and smooth muscles surrounding the arteriole in various stomach layers were innervated by both adrenergic and cholinergic terminals, some of them are superimposed at the samelocalization. There are a lot of nsChE nerve ending network in gastric lamina propria beneath epithelium of gastric mucous membrane, it was discussed about their sensory nature in this paper.
