The incidence of venous thromboembolism in patients with ovarian cancer is much higher than other gynecologic cancers. Approximate 20%of ovarian cancer patients have hypercoagulable status during different phases of their disease. Ovarian cancer itself can induce hypercoagulability, but meanwhile the over activated coagulation system may promote disease progression. Coagulation system disorder is one of the most important prognostic factors in ovarian cancer. Recently, hypercoagulability becomes a hot spot in the ovarian cancer research ifeld. This article reviews the mechanism of hypercoagulability, its clinical implication and correlated treatment in ovarian cancer patients.

BACKGROUND: There are a lot of immunologic studies about limb allotransplantation in animal experiment. But, it is only early investigation in clinic; its clinical immunologic study needs further accumulation.OBJECTIVE: To dynamically analyze the early immunologic state change in patients following hand allotransplantation.DESIGN: Controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Guangzhou General Hospital,Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA; Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics and Department of Laboratory Medicine, Nanfang Hospital, First Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Two patients who underwent unilateral hand allotransplantation in the Department of Orthopaedics, Guangzhou General Hospital,Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA were enrolled, serving as experimental group. The observation was between September 1999 and March 2000. Twenty persons, including 12 male and 8 female, who homochronously received health examination, aged 20 to 45 years, were enrolled, serving as healthy control group. They all had no reactive immune and infectious diseases, and voluntarily participated in the trial.METHODS: Peripheral blood was collected from 2 patients who underwent hand allotransplantation once respectively at pre-operative 1 day and 3 days. Blood collecting was performed once per day at post-operative 1 week, three times per week at post-operative 2 to 4 weeks, twice per week at 5 to 8 weeks post-operation, once per week at 9 to 16 weeks post-operation, twice per month at 5 to 6 months post-operation. ① Peripheral blood T cell subgroups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cells)were detected by flow cytometer,serum panel reactive antibody (PRA) by ELISA method, serum C-reactive protein by turbidimetric immanoassay (TIA), serum creatine kinase (CK) by enzyme dynamics method. ②Mixed lymphocyte reaction(MLR): mitomycin C-treated donor peripheral blood lymphocytes were used as stimulator, and proliferative reaction of peripheral blood lymphocyte of patients to donor transplanted antigen was detected with the incorporation of 3H-TDR method (Negative: There was no significant difference between the mean value of stimulation index and 1, conversely positive). Autogenic peripheral blood lymphocytes treated with the same way replaced donor stimulator, serving as control. Stimulation index of each specimen was calculated (Stimulation index=Experiment cmp/controlcpm), serving as control index. Peripheral blood T-cell subgroups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell), serum PRA, C-reactive protein and CK were detected in 20 persons in healthy control group;Twenty persons were randomly divided into 10 groups. Two persons in each group were used as donor and recipient mutually and performed MLR.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Peripheral blood T cell subgrpups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell). ②PRA. ③ C-reactive protein. ④CK. ⑤MLR.RESULTS: ①CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell levels were obviously decreased within one week after operation. CD3+ and CD4+T cell levels both recovered to be the pre-operative levels, but CD8+ level exceeded pre-operative level significantly [CD3+: (66.43±4.56); CD4+: (30.55±3.94); CD8 +:(33.45 ±2.69)]. There was no significant difference between experiment group and control group. ②Serum PRA was 0 to 10%, there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ③ Serum C-reactive protein was 0 to 0.359 mg/L, there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ④ Serum CK was 25 to 170 mmol/L, and there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ⑤ MLR after transplantation was negative, and it turned into be positive 5 months later.They were all positive in control group.CONCLUSION: Short-term change and long-term redistribution of T cell subgroups are closely related to immunosuppressive agent, suggesting that immunosuppressive agent has obvious effect on T-cell subgroup following hand allotransplantation. Immuno-induction schedule make patients be in immune suppression state, which effectively avoid early rejection. But patients cannot bear specificity yet; they need the inhibition of immunosuppressive agents.

Objective：To study the mental health status of heroin addicts and their need for psychotherapy after detoxification. Methods：The mental health of 83 heroin addicts and 70 normal subjects were assessed by SCL-90, Social Support Rating Scale , EPQ, SAS and SDS. Results：As compared to normal controls, heroin additions were found to score higher on various mental health measures, including SCL-90 total and factor scores, the N score of EPQ, as well as total scores on SAS and SDS. The social support in heroin addicts scored lower than normal subjects. Conclusion：Heroin addicts have severe psychological problems, which warrant long-term psychological rehabilitation after detoxification.

Objective To investigate the value of CARE Dose 4D technique in decreasing radiation dose and improving image quality of multi-slice spiral CT in adult chest scanning.Methods 100patients of chest CT scanning were equally divided into study group and control group randomly.CARE Dose 4D Technique was used in study group.Effective mAs value,volume CT dose index (CTDIvol) and dose length product (DLP) were displayed automatically in machine while chest scanning; those values and actual mAs value of every image were recorded respectively.The image quality at apex of lung,lower edge of aorta arch,middle area of left atrium and base of lung on every image of 400 images was judged and classified as three level (excellent,good,poor) by two deputy chief physicians with double blind method,the image noise at corresponding parts was measured.Results While setting 80 mAs for quality reference mAs,the effective mAs value in study group most decreased 44 mAs than control group with an average decrease of 9.60( 12.0% ) ,CTDIvol with 4.75 mGy with an average decrease of 0.95 mC y( 11.0% ) ,DLP 99.50% in study group,with 98.0% in control group.But it was higher at apex of lung and base of lung,lower at middle area of left atrium,and similar at lower edge of aorta arch in study group than contrast group.The image noise were lower at apex of lung and base of lung in study group than control group (t =6.299 and 2.332,all P ＜ 0.05 ) ,higher at middle area of left atrium in study group than control group (t=3.078,P ＜0.05) and similar at lower edge of aorta arch in study group than control group (t =1.191,P ＞0.05).Conclusions CARE Dose 4D technique provides a function regulated mAs real-time on line,it not only raises utilization rate of radiation and decreases radiation dose,but also promises and increases image quality in chest CT scanning,and has some clinical significance.

Objective To investigate the relationship between mental status and some physical indicators,so as to identify the influencing factors of anxiety and depression in health check-up populations.Methods A total of 3885 health check-up adults enrolled in this investigation.Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS),self-rating depression scale (SDS),and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL90) were used to evaluate mental health of the participants.Physical indicators,including body mass index (BMI),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),triglyceride (TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),serum free three iodine armour gland original acid (FT5),serum free thyroxine (FT4),and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH),were retrospectively reviewed.Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between mental health and physical signs,and the Logistic regression analysis was performed to confirm the influencing factors of anxiety and depression.Results Increased prevalence of anxiety and depression was found in females or those with lower education level.For the health check-up populations,anxiety and depression were negatively correlated to BMI,SBP,DBP,LDL-C,FT3 and FT4.In Logistic regression analysis,LDL-C,FT3 and FT4 were related to SDS score,while SBP,FT3,and FT4 were related to SAS score.Conclusion Our data suggest that emotion could be affected by gender and education level; SBP,LDL-C,FT3,and FT4 may be protective factors of anxiety and depression.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the inhibiting effect of Pingyangmycin on cultured vein endothelial cells in vitro and illustrate the mechanism of Pingyangmycin on treatment cavernous hemangioma of head and neck. METHODS By MTT assay,the inhibiting rates of cultured Ecv-304 cells which were managed with Pingyangmycin for 24h and 48h were compared respectively. The changes in the cell cycle,apoptosis,and Caspase 3 protein expression of the cells managed with Pingyangcin for 24h were examined by flow cytometry(FCM). RESULTS The results showed that the inhibiting rate of Ecv-304 was dependent on the concentration of Pingyangmycin. However,in the same concentration,the inhibiting effect for 24h was stronger than that for 48h. The percentage of G1 phase cells increased while the S phase decreased,but the percentage of G2 phase cells remained unchanged after managed with Pingyangcin for 24h. An apoptosis peak appeared before G1 phase. The apoptosis rate was also concentration-dependant. The expression of caspase 3 increased in every group of different concentration. CONCLUSION Pingyangmycin can possibly arrest the growth of Ecv-304 in the G1 phase through the mechanism of inducing apoptosis. Caspase 3 may play an important role in the induced apoptosis.

AIM:To synthesize the human platelet factor-4(hPF4) gene with a convenient and effective approach, and high express the hPF4 gene in E. coli BL21 (DE3). METHODS: According to the primary structure of hPF4, the nucleotide sequence was synthesized using touch-down PCR method. The resultant gene fragment containing EcoR Ⅰ and Xho Ⅰ overhangs at 5' and 3' ends was cloned into the expression vector pGEX-4T-1 to construct the recombinant plasmid pGEX-4T-1-hPF4,which was then transformed into the E. coli strain BL21 (DE3). RESULTS: hPF4 gene was successfully synthesized by touchdown PCR method. A fusion protein composed of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and the recombinant hPF4 was expressed in BL21(DE3) by IPTG induction. The expression level of the fusion protein in E. coli was about 30% of the total cellular protein. CONCLUSION: Touch-down PCR may provide a convenient and effective approach to obtain other target genes. The expressed fusion protein forms the inclusion bodies, providing sufficient material for further purification and biological activities process.

Objective To measure the angular velocity and perpendicular ground reaction force of the ankle joint under different heights with half-squat jumping in parachute training simulation,providing a reliable experiment basis for the preventing of ankle injury.Methods A total of 18 volunteers participated in this study.The experimental group included 9 male with experience of parachute landing,while the other 9 male without experience of parachute landing were assigned to the control group.Each subject was instructed to jump off a platform with a height of 30 cm and 60 cm and land on a hard surface in a half-squat posture.The dynamic landing process was recorded with a high speed camera and the biomechanical data was collected and analyzed,including perpendicular ground reaction force,angular displacement,velocity and acting time.Results From 30 cm's height,the ankle angular displacement of the control group was significantly larger than the experimental group (25.73°± 8.13° vs 20.05°± 12.27°,P ＜ 0.05).The perpendicular ground reaction force of the control group was significantly smaller than the experimental group (3 372.4±748.6 N vs 5 181.5±1 726.2 N,P ＜ 0.05).The acting time of the control group was significantly longer than the ex perimental group (0.049±0.015 s vs 0.012±0.004 s,P ＜ 0.05).The buffer time of the control group was significantly shorter than the experimental group (1.397±0.746 s vs 1.737±0.451 s,P ＜ 0.05).From 60 cm's height,the ankle angular velocity of the control group was significantly higher than the experimental group (25.45± 15.01 °/s vs 16.51 ±4.18 °/s,P ＜ 0.05).The perpendicular ground reaction force of the control group was significantly smaller than the experimental group (4 616.0±1 124.7 N vs 7 119.5±2 307.4 N,P ＜ 0.05).The acting time of the control group was significantly longer than the experimental group (0.048±0.013 s vs 0.015±0.006 s,P ＜ 0.05).The buffer time of the control group was significantly shorter than the experimental group (0.922±0.347 s vs 1.617±0.547 s,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Jumping from different heights,the experinental group was larger in perpendicular ground reaction force but smaller in the angular velocity and displacement than the control group.There was a shorter acting time and a longer buffer time in the experimental group than the control group.

OBJECTIVETo systematically assess the efficacy and safety of Rhodiola in treating chronic stable angina pectoris.

METHODSOur group searched the Cochrane library, PubMed, Embase, Chinese biomedical literature database (CBM), VIP database (VIP), Chinese Journal Full-text Database (CNKI) for the literature published in English and Chinese till April 2013. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included on the therapeutic effect of Rhodiola or Rhodiola plus conventional Western medicine in comparison with the conventional Western medicine treatment on stable angina. Data were extracted according the data extraction form. The literature methodological quality was assessed by using the Cochrane handbook, and data analyzed by Rev-Man 5.2 Software for Meta-analysis. The effect indicators of outcomes was expressed by odds ratio (OR) and 95% CI.

RESULTSA total of 7 randomized controlled trials, 662 cases of stable angina pectoris patients met the inclusion criteria and all published in Chinese, without one scientific design and high quality literature. Compared with the conventional Western medicine treatment, combined with oral administration of Rhodiola could improve the efficiency of anti-angina (OR = 2.49, 95% CI: 1.02 - 6.09). Combined with intravenous infusion of Rhodiola could also improve the efficacy of angina pectoris (OR = 4.86, 95% CI: 2.4 - 9.82). Oral administration of Rhodiola couldn't improve ECG efficacy (OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 0.67 - 2.34). Intravenous infusion of Rhodiola could improve the clinical efficacy (OR = 2.94, 95% CI: 1.61 - 5.35). Combined with the conventional treatment, intravenous infusion of Rhodiola could improve the whole blood viscosity (low and high shear rates) and inverse variance (IV) (-1.36 and -0.99, 95% CI: -1.65 - 1.07 and -1.26 - 0.71), but could not reduce serum fibrinogen and D-dimer level. The incidence rate of adverse reactions was higher than that of the conventional treatment combined with Rhodiola (OR = 0.1, 95% CI: 0.02 - 0.51).

CONCLUSIONSOn the basis of routine treatment, Rhodiola could further improve patients' symptoms. Combined with intravenous medication, Rhodiola could increase the ECG improvement rate, and reduce adverse reactions. But the methodological quality of included studies was poor, the number of samples was small, and influence factors such as the intervention period was short. This conclusion needs scientific and rational design in a larger sample, multicenter clinical trial to verify.
