Purpose:To evaluate the efficacy of bladder p re servation treatment by concurrent neoadjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy, radi otherapy and transurethral resection for patients with bladder cancer with muscl e invasion. Methods:Thirteen patients who were unfit for or unwilling to re ceive radical cystectomy were enrolled in this study. All patients had muscle in vasive transitional cell carcinoma of bladder(T 2-T 3). Patients were treated with neoadjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy, radiotherapy and transurethral r esection. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of cisplatin 80 mg, epirubicin 50 m g and fluorouracil 1 g/camptothecin 30 mg. The average dose of radiotherapy was 30-50 Gy. Results:At the end of neoadjuvant therapy, 1 patient (7.69%) sh owed a complete response and 12 patients (92.31%) showed partial response; tran surethral resection was performed for residual tumors. All patients completed th e treatment and showed good tolerance. With a median follow-up of 26.46 months, local recurrence or distant metastasis occurred in 5 patients (38.46%). Recurre nt tumors were treated with transurethral resection or systematic chemotherapy a nd radiotherapy. Conclusions:concurrent neoadjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy , radiotherapy and transurethral resection is a feasible and promising treatment for patients with bladder cancer with muscle invasion.

The relationship between probiotics and host intestinal immune system was reviewed. Then, as a new immunomodulator, the mechanisms and clinical uses of probiotics were discussed.

Many microbial pathogens,including those responsible for major enteric infections,exploit oligosaccharides that are displayed on the surface of host cells as receptors for toxins and adhesins. Blocking crucial ligand receptor interactions is therefore a promising therapeutic strategy. One approach is to express molecular mimics of host receptors on the surface of harmless recombinant bacteria that can survive in the gut. These recombinant probiotics bind bacterial toxins in the gut lumen with very high avidity,thereby preventing disease.

Fermentation property and kinetic analysis of the inhibition of in vitro growth of pathogenic Escherichia coli K88, O138 by Lactobacillus intestinalis isolated from porcine intestine mucus were investi-gated. The results of fermentation showed that L1 result in a pH of 3.90 within 12 h and a large amount of lactic acid production, with the concentration of 104.08 mmol/L. Kinetic analysis of the antibacterial activity of L1 metabolic product toward K88, O138 showed that CFUS display strong antibacterial activity toward K88, O138; the antibacterial activity of L1 CFUS was higher than the lactic acid control samples and was mainly due to the production of lactic acid; K88, O138 had the tolerance property toward pH 4.5.

BACKGROUND: Research shows that the auditory brainstem response (ABR) wave amplitude of tinnitus patients often act as big Ⅲ small Ⅴ.Tinnitus masking is a therapy of tinnitus, then how dose the ABR change in the process of tinnitus masking?OBJECTIVE: To observe the changing characteristics of ABR in patients with tinnitus as well as the changing rules of ABR after tinnitus masking.DESIGN: Case-control and self-control.SETTING: Department of Otorhinolaryngology, First Hospital of Jilin University.PARTICIPANTS: Continuous tinnitus group: 63 cases (68 ears) were selected from the Clinic of First Hospital of Jilin University from March 1999to October 2001. Control group: 10 cases (20 ears) of normal hearing youth (20-23 years old). All subjects received the examination and treatment voluntarily.METHODS: The ABR was firstly detected in tinnitus patients (foreheadmastoid conducting method was adopted), and examination of tinnitus as well as tinnitus masking test (masking for 5 minutes) were respectively conducted, immediately after that, the ABR was detected to do control-observation with the control group.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①The characteristics of ABR in patients with tinnitus. ②Effects of tinnitus masking on the amplitude wave of ABR, which was divided into positive group in residual inhibition test and negative group in residual inhibition test for analyzing.RESULTS: A total of 83 subjects were involved in the analysis of results.①The amplitude wave of ABR in youth of normal hearing were small Ⅲ big Ⅴ, whereas that in 22 ears (32.4％) out of 63 subjects (68 ears) were big Ⅲ smallⅤ, in which 17 ears were of patients positive residual inhibition test, and 5 were of negative.②After tinnitus masking therapy, 10 ears out of 17 ears of patients positive in residual inhibition test turned from big Ⅲ small Ⅴ to small Ⅲ big Ⅴ, and the wave amplitude of Ⅲ wasre duced in 3 ears, while the ABR in 2 ears out of 5 ears of negative patients turned to small Ⅲ bigⅤ, and there were no changes in other 3 ears.CONCLUSION: Tinnitus masking therapy can convert the abnormal ABR wave amplitude in patients with tinnitus to normal, which will be taken as the objective index in judging whether it is positive in residual inhibition test.

Objective To investigate the effect of early warning face pattern of weight combined with health education in weight management of maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods Toally 223 maintenance hemodialysis patients hospitalized in the hospital from July to December 2014 (17,617 cases of hemodialysis) were set as the control group and 223 maintenance hemodialysis patients from January to June 2015 (17,281 cases of hemodialysis) were set as the experiment group.The control group was given routine health education and the experiment group was given health education and early warning face pattern of weight.The two groups were compared in terms of the ratio between interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) and interdialytic dry weight ratio (IWGR) as well as the hemodialysis-related complications.Results The IDWG/IWGR ratio in the experiment group was significantly better than that of the control group (P＜0.05).The incidence of hemodialysis-related complications were significantly lower than that of control group.Conclusion Early warning face pattern of weight used in health education can effectively control the patient's interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) and reduce the hemodialysis-related complications.

To enhance the capacity for extending and applying appropriate health technologies in rural areas in China,this paper proposes a supportive policy system that incoperates macro,average and microlevels. Thepolicysystemfocusesonorientation, incentives, regulationsand standardization,and its objectives and measures of each level are described.The policy system will contribute to the sustainable development rural health work.
