Objective To investigate the effects of diclofenac sodium suppositories on emergence agitation after sevoflurane maintenance in children undergoing adenotonsilleetomy. Methods Forty-five patients selected for adenotonsillectomy were randomly divided into three groups (n=15). Patients in group 1 were given diclofenac sodium suppositories 12.5 mg right after intubation, those in group 2 were given diclofenac sodium suppositories 12.5 mg immediately after operation, while those in control group were not treated with diclofenac sodium suppositories before or after operation. The extubation time and time spent in post-anesthctic ICU (PACU) were recorded, the modified Aldrete score and pain score were assessed after entrance into PACU, and pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale was administered 10, 20 and 30 rain after entrance into PACU. Results There was no significant difference in extubation time and time spent in PACU among three groups(P>0.05). Ten minutes after entrance into PACU, the PAED score of group 1 was significantly lower than those of group 2 and control group(P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between the latter two groups(P>0.05). Twenty and thirty minutes after entrance into PACU, the PAED scores of group 1 and group 2 were significantly lower than that of control group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the modified Aldrete score right after entrance into PACU among three groups. The pain scores of group 1 and group 2 were signifiantly lower than that of control group(P< 0.05). Conclusion Diclofenac sodium suppositories can decrease the incidence and severity of emergence agitation after sevoflurane maintenance in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy.

Objective To investigate the immunogenicity and cross protective effects of two novel HCV DNA vaccines in a mice model.Methods Two self-replicating alphavirus vector-based HCV DNA vaccines, pSCK CE1E2Y and pSCK H155, were constructed based on the genes encoding the structural pro-teins (Core, E1 and E2) and structural and NS3 fusion proteins (Core, E1 , E2 and NS3) of a HCV strain isolated from a Chinese patient (genotype 1b, Hebei strain), respectively.Western blot analysis was per-formed to detect the expression of fusion antigens.The BALB/c mice were intradermally immunized with the recombinant DNA vaccines by using electroporation.The immune responses induced in mice and the cross protective effects of the recombinant DNA vaccines were evaluated.Results The DNA vaccines effectively expressed the target antigens in vitro.The antigen-specific antibody responses and specific T cell immune re-sponses were induced in mice by the immunization of replicative DNA vaccines.However, no effective cross protection was provided by either of the DNA vaccines in the surrogate challenge model based on a recombi-nant heterologous HCV (JFH1, 2a) vaccinia virus strain.Conclusion Although no effective cross protec-tion was observed, both of the two replicative DNA vaccines could induce strong humoral and cellular im-mune responses against multi-target antigens of HCV strains.This study has paved the way for further inves-tigation on the development of novel HCV vaccines.

ObjectiveTo analyze the role of postmastectomy radiotherapy in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer patients with Stage T1 -T2 and one to three positive axillary nodes. MethodsA total of 436 breast cancer patients with T1 -T2 and one to three positive axillary lymph nodes treated with mastectomy and axillary dissection were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were grouped as the following four subtypes:Luminal A, Luminal B, Her2+ and triple-negative. The local recurrence (LR), distant metastasis ( DM ), disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were compared between paitents with or without radiotherapy in univariate analyses. Multivariate analyses for LR were performed. Results The follow-up rate was 86. 0%. In patients with Luminal A subtype, radiotherapy decreased the 5-year LR rate (4.6% vs 15.8% ,x2 =5.74,P=0.017) but had no influences on DM, DFS or OS rates (17.2% vs 19.7%,x2 =0. 17,P=0.682;77.0% vs 67. 1% ,x2 =1.99,P=0. 158 or87.4%:85. 5% ,x2 =0. 12,P=0. 733 ). In patients with Luminal B subtype, radiotherapy decreased the 5-year LR rate (3.7% vs 12. 1%,x2 =4. 13, P =0. 042), increased DFS and OS ( 84. 0% vs 57.6% ( x2 =14.61, P =0. 000) and 91.4% vs 70. 7% ( x2 =11.87, P =0. 001 ), but had no influence on DM ( 12. 3% vs 22. 2%, x2 =2. 97, P =0. 085).In patients with Her2+ subtype, radiotherapy decreased the 5-year LR rate (5. 6% vs 31.0% ,x2 =4. 31,P=0. 035) , increased DFS (61. 1% vs 13. 8% ,x2 =11.44,P=0.001 ) ,but had no influence on DM and OS (27.8% vs 41.4%, x2 =0. 89, P =0. 345 and 66. 7% vs 48. 3%, x2 =1.52,P =0. 218 ). In patients with triple-negative subtype, radiotherapy had no influence in LR, DM, DFS or OS (8. 7% vs 26. 1% ,x2 =2.42,P=0.120;39.1% vs47.8%,x2=0.35,P=0.552;52.2% vs 26.1% , x2 =3. 29, P =0. 070 or 65.2% vs 56. 5% ,x2 =0. 37 ,P =0. 546). Tumor size and radiotherapy were independent prognostic factors for LR rate in multivariate analyses ( x2 =4. 76, P =0. 029 and x2 =8.06, P =0. 005 ). ConclusionsFor patients with stage T1 -T2 and one to three positive axillary nodes, patients with all molecular subtypes except triple-negative can benefit from postmasteetomy radiotherapy.

OBJECTIVETo study the effects and underlying mechanisms of Zhuyun Recipe (ZR) on the endometrial receptivity in ovarian stimulation (OS) and blastocyst implantation dysfunction (BID) mice.
METHODSTotally 200 normal female Kunming mice were randomly divided into 6 groups, i. e., the control group (Group A), the OS group (Group B), the OS + ZR group (Group C), the BID group (Group D), the BID + ZR group (Group E), and the ZR group (Group F). The pregnant mare's serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) were intraperitoneally injected to mice in Group B. Mifepristone was subcutaneously injected to mice in Group D at 9:00 am on the 4th gestation day. Corresponding medications were given to mice in Group C, E, and F at 1.5 mL/100 g by gastrogavage at 8:00 am from the first to the 4th gestation day. Eight uterus samples were collected at 9:00 pm on the 4th gestation day and fixed. The expression levels of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and integrin beta3 were detected using immunohistochemical assay. The pregnant mice were sacrificed at 9:30 pm on the 8th gestation day, and their uterus were taken out. The number of blastocysts was counted.
RESULTSCompared with Group A, the pregnant rate was 6.67% (1/15 cases) in Group B and 18.75% (3/16 cases) in Group D, the mean OD value of LIF was 0. 18 +/- 0.02 in Group B and 0.23 +/- 0.02 in Group D, and the mean OD value of integrin beta3 was 0.20 +/- 0.05 in Group B and 0.19 +/- 0. 02 in Group D, showing statistical difference (P < 0.01). The pregnant rate was 54.55% (12/22 cases) in Group C and 65. 22% (15/23 cases) in Group E, the mean OD value of LIF was 0.37 +/- 0. 09 in Group C and 0.39 +/- 0.02 in Group E, and the mean OD value of integrin beta3 was 0.34 +/- 0.04 in Group C and 0.38 +/- 0.08 in Group E, showing statistical difference when compared with those of Group B and Group D respectively (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSOS and BID had negative effects on the endometrial receptivity and hindered the blastocyst implantation. ZR could improve the uterine receptivity and elevate the pregnant rate by up-regulating the expressions of endometrial LIF and integrin beta3.

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus infection and can involve the organs in the whole body. Surgery is the primary method for the treatment of CE. With the development of related techniques, precision operation, and no-tumor operation standards, more and more patients are able to receive surgical treatment, but there are still many patients who can only receive drug conservative treatment. However, there are limited drugs for the treatment of CE at present, and only benzimidazole has a definite therapeutic effect. This article reviews the research advances in the pharmacotherapy for CE in China and foreign countries, so as to provide a reference for drug research and development and clinical drug use.

Objective To observe the changes of respiratory and hemodynamic functions in children with different age undergoing laparoscopic Nissen's fundoplication(LNF). Methods Thirty-three children with LNF were divided into three groups according to the age: group Ⅰ,1 to 12 months,n=13;group Ⅱ,1 to 3 years old,n=10;and group Ⅲ,4 to 7 years,n=10.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure,Ppeak,compliance of the respiratory system(CRS) and end-tidal carbon dioxide pressure(PETCO2) were recorded 5 min before pneumoperitoneum(T0),10 min(T1),60 min(T2) after pneumoperitoneum and 10 min after deflation(T3),and parameters of blood gas analysis such as PaCO2 were measured at the same time. Results Compared with those at T0,HR,Ppeak,PETCO2 and the difference between PaCO2 and PETCO2(Pa-ETCO2)were significantly increased at T1 and T2,while CRS was significantly decreased.The most significant changes were found in group Ⅰ. Conclusion The changes of respiratory and hemodynamic functions are observed in children undergoing LNF,and anesthesia management should be enhanced for those within 1 to 12 months old who experience the most significant changes.

Objective To investigate the development strategy of novel T cell based vaccine against HCV infection.Methods BALB/c mice were primed with pSCK-based DNA vaccine and boosted with type 5 adenoviral vector-based vaccine, which expressed the structural proteins ( Core, E1 and E2) de-rived from a Chinese HCV patient (genotype 1b, Hebei strain).Enzyme linked immunospot assay (ELIS-POT) and intracellular cytokine staining ( ICS) were used to analyze the elicited antigen-specific immune re-sponses and the efficacy of cross-protection.Results Immunization of mice with the prime-boost vaccination strategy elicited stronger T cell immune responses against multiple HCV antigens than using the DNA vac-cines alone, especially the IFN-γ-secreting T cell responses against E1 protein as indicated by ELISPOT as-say.ICS data indicated that the prime-boost regimen elicited more TNF-α-producing CD4+and IFN-γ-produ-cing CD8+T cells against E1 protein and high levels of IFN-γ-producing CD4+and CD8+T cells against E2 protein in comparison with immunization with DNA vaccines.Moreover, the prime-boost vaccination was ca-pable of eliciting effective cross-protection in a surrogate challenge model based on a recombinant heterolo-gous HCV (JFH1, 2a) vaccinia virus.Conclusion The prime-boost vaccination using DNA and rAd5-based vaccine expressing HCV structural antigens induced significant cellular immune response and cross-protection in mice, suggesting the possibility of using it as a promising T cell based vaccine against HCV in-fection.
