Objective To investigate the optimum doses of combined chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide (CTX) and cisplatin (DDP).Methods 120 cases of ovarian cancer and malignant lymphoma were divided randomly into 6 groups.Drugs were administered to each group:CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 40 mg/m2,CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 50 mg/m2,CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 40 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 50 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2.Drugs were administered intravenously once a week for 2 consecutive weeks.Changes in the efficacy and adverse reaction were compared among the groups.Results There was no significant efficacy difference among the groups (P ＞ 0.05).Leukocyte inhibition rate (72.6 ％ and 79.3 ％,respectively) and damage to lymphocyte were maximal in the high-dose chemotherapy groups (CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2),and the levels of creatinine,blood urea nitrogen,alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in serum and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were reduced significantly,whereas the hemogram was within normal range in the lowdose chemotherapy group (CTX500 mg/m2 + DDP 40 mg/m2),and the frequencies of damage to renal function and hepatic function were low.Conclusion The optimum dose of combined chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and cisplatin was CTX 500 mg/m2 and DDP 40 mg/m2.

Objective To retrospectively study the serum IgG and IgM antibodies against toxoplasma, rubella virus, cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus type 1&2 in various populations, and analyze the clinical values.Methods From 2008 to 2015, 2 661 pregnant women, 324 infertile women, 2 492 women with abnormal pregnancy history, 623 women with recent abnormal pregnancy, 261 infants with intrauterine growth retardation and other diseases, 170 women for preconceptual examination, and 702 women for physical examination in Beijing were included .Commercial EIA kits were used to detect serum IgG and IgM antibodies to toxoplasma, rubella virus, cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus type 1&2. Positive reactions of IgM antibodies to any pathogens were re-tested with another kind of commercial EIA kit. PEMS3.1 software was used for statistical analysis.Results The prevalence of serum IgG or IgM antibodies against toxoplasma, rubella virus, cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus type 1& 2 were found within 0.7%-1.6%(0-1.2%) , 85.3%-92.0% ( 0.4%-2.7%) , 89.1%-94.9% ( 0.7%-1.7%) , 74.8%-86.0% ( 0 -0.7%) , 8.1% -17.4% ( 0 -4.1%) respectively in the studied population groups.The prevalence of TORCH IgG and IgM antibodies were not found to be higher in both populations with past suspicious exposure ( infertile women and women with abnormal pregnancy history ) and recent suspicious exposure ( women with recent abnormal pregnancy and infants with intrauterine growth retardation and other diseases) than that in pregnant women and women for preconceptual and physical examination. Conclusion No associations between TORCH infections and the suspicious exposure were found in the populations above.

Objective To evaluate the influence of peritoneal lavage with different concentrations of povidone-iodine on hemodynamics and acid-base balance in rabbits.Methods Twenty-four clean-grade healthy adult male New Zealand white rabbits,aged 3 months,weighing 2.8-3.2 kg,were divided into 4 groups (n=6 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),povidone-iodine 1/3 of original concentration group (group TI),povidone-iodine l/2 of original concentration group (group HI) and povidone-iodine of original concentration group (group OI).Rabbits were anaesthetized with intraperitoneal 3％ pentobarbital 1.5 ml/kg,the left femoral artery was cannulated for invasive blood pressure monitoring,and the abdominal cavity was opened.Peritoneal lavage was performed with normal saline,povidone-iodine diluted with normal saline (1 ∶ 2),povidone-iodine diluted with normal saline (1 ∶ 1) and original povidone-iodine 20 ml at 10 min after opening abdominal cavity in C,TI,HI and OI groups,respectively.The fluid for peritoneal lavage was sucked out using a sterile gauze 2 min later and then the abdominal cavity was closed.Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded immediately before lavage (T0) and at 5,10 and 20 min and 1 and 2 h after the end of lavage (T1-5).Arterial blood samples were collected at T0,T4 and T5 for blood gas analysis,and the pH value,BE and lactic acid level were recorded.The duration of anesthesia before peritoneal lavage,cumulative dose of anesthetics,fluid volume and urine volume at 2 h after anesthesia,and mortality at 3 h after peritoneal lavage were recorded.Results Compared with group C,MAP at T1-5 and HR at T3-5 were significantly decreased in TI,HI and OI groups,pH value was significantly decreased and BE negative value was increased at T4,5 in HI and OI groups,the lactic acid level was significantly increased at T5 in group OI,and the mortality rate were significantly increased in HI and OI groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group TI,MAP at T4,5 and pH value at T5 were significantly decreased,BE negative value was increased at T5,and the lactic acid level was increased at T4,5 in group Ol (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in each parameter between group OI and group HI (P＞0.05).Conclusion Peritoneal lavage with povidone-iodine dose-dependently leads to hemodynamic deterioration and acid-base imbalance in rabbits.

Objective:To investigate the killing effects in vitro of a new photosensitizer black titanium dioxide b-TP-700-mediated photodynamics on prostate cancer cell line PC-3 cells.Methods:The b-TP-700 was successfully prepared by using solid phase in situ thermal reduction method. PC-3 cells were treated with 31.25, 62.5, 125, 250, 500, 1 000 μg/ml b-TP-700 for 12, 24, 48 h. The cell activity was detected by using CCK-8 method, and the morphology of PC-3 cells was observed by using confocal fluorescence microscope, the toxicity of b-TP-700 to PC-3 cells was also judged. PC-3 cells were treated with different concentrations of b-TP-700 (31.25, 62.5, 125, 250, 500 μg/ml) and irradiated with laser (1 W/cm, 808 nm) for 1, 3, 5, 7 min. The cell activity was detected by using CCK-8 method. The production of reactive oxygen species in PC-3 cells cultured in 250 μg/ml b-TP-700 after laser irradiation for 5 min was detected by using confocal fluorescence microscopy. The non-laser irradiation cells were selected as the control group.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in cell activity of PC-3 cells treated with different concentrations of b-TP-700 for the same time ( F value was 1.26, 0.39 and 0.37, respectively; all P > 0.05). PC-3 cells were treated with 1 000 μg/ml b-TP-700 for 24 h, no obvious morphological changes and no obvious dead cells were observed under fluorescence microscope. When PC-3 cells were treated with the same concentration of b-TP-700, the activity of PC-3 cells was decreased with the extension of laser excitation time. Under the same laser excitation time, the activity of PC-3 cells was decreased with the increase of b-TP-700 concentration (all P < 0.05). Under laser irradiation, obvious green fluorescence could be detected in the PC-3 cells treated with 250 μg/ml b-TP-700, while almost no green fluorescence could be observed in the control group. Conclusions:A new photosensitizer b-TP-700 has the good reactive oxygen generation ability. b-TP-700-mediated photodynamics show obvious killing effects on prostate cancer PC-3 cells in vitro, which is expected to be a new method for the treatment of prostate cancer.

Objective To evaluate the influences of susceptibility interpretation of Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumonia and Proteus mirabilis in China mainland according to the old and new ceftazidime,cefotaxime and ceftriaxone breakpoints in CLSI M100-S20 and CLSI M100-S19. Methods First, We analyzed the antibacterial susceptibility results of the three bacteria by agar dilution method in the SEANIR surveillance item, which were collected from 15 national hospitals between the year of 2005 and 2007 and excluded the AmpC enzyme positive isolates according to the PGR-DNA sequencing method and/or the antibacterial susceptibility phenotype. ESBL phenotype was confirmed by the CLSI phenotypic confirmatory test. Antibacterial susceptibility of the total 2733 Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis isolates was retrospectively analyzed by WHONET 5. 4 software according to the breakpoints of the CLSI M100-S19 (S19) and CLSI M100-S20 (S20). Second, 207 isolates of Peking Union Medical College Hospital with the results of both agar dilution method and disk diffusion method were performed by recurrent analysis. Then we observed the inter-method agreement through the scatter diagram according to the breakpoints of S19 and S20. Results First, as to the ESBL positive Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia and Proteus mirabili.s, the resistant rate of cefotaxime increased from 65.2% , 55.5%, 14. 6% under S19 (64 μg/ml) to 99. 7%, 96. 2% , 93. 8% under S20 (4 μg/ml). The susceptibility rates decreased from 6. 0%, 11.5%, 33.3% under S19 (8 μg/ml) to 0%, 0. 2%, 0% under S20 ( 1 μg/ml). Ceftriaxone had the same trend as cefotaxime. Though ceftazidime was more active than cefotaxime and ceftriaxone, as to the ESBL positive Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia, the resistant rates slightly increased from 30. 3%,43. 2% under S19 (32 μg/ml) to42.0%, 56. 0% under S20 (16 μg/ml). The susceptibility rates slightly decreased from 58. 1%, 44. 1% under S19 (8 μg/ml) to 44. 7%, 28.0% under S20 (4 μg/ml). Second,as to the ESBL negative Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia and Proteus mirabilis, all the susceptibility rates of ceftazidime, cefotaxime and ceftriaxone were between 99. 2%-100. 0%, the resistant rate were between 0%-0. 4%. Third, the S20 MIC breakpoints had a good correspondence with the ESBL phenotype.Fourth, according to the recurrent analysis of MIC testing and disk dilution method, r value was 0. 67,0. 79, 0. 77 for ceftazidime, cefotaxime and ceftriaxone, respectively, and all P value were under 0. 01. The intermethod rates of S19 and S20 were both acceptable. Conclusions If the cefotaxime and ceftriaxone S20 new breakpoints were used, the concordance of antibacterial susceptibility results and ESBL phenotype would increase greatly. The clinician could select proper antibiotics according to the antibacterial susceptibility results and clinical symptoms. It is no longer necessary to edit results for cephalosporins, aztreonam, or penicillins from susceptible to resistant. However, until laboratories implement the new interpretive criteria,ESBL testing should be performed as described in Supplemental Table 2A-S1. The relationship between the new breakpoints of ceftazidime and clinical outcomes need to be further evaluated.

Objective To evaluate the evidence and recommendations of the relevant clinical practice guidelines for the prevention and treatment of stroke published in the last five years. Methods The stroke and guideline-related key words and free words domestic computer retrieval platforms(China biomedical literature database,CNKI,and Yimaitong etc.),as well as foreign platforms(PubMed,NGC,GIN,etc.) were retrieved.The retrieval time limit ranged from January 2012 to May 2017.Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ)was used to assess the quality of the guidelines. Results A total of 9 490 documents were retrieved preliminarily and finally 16 articles were included. The average scoring rates of the 16 guidelines in the 6 fields of AGREE Ⅱ,including the scope and purpose,participants,rigor of the formulation,clarity of expression,applicability,and independence of the editors were 66.3%, 27.4%,23.0%,53.9%,18.8%,and 0%,respectively.The different guidelines all recommend that internal endarterectomy or carotid balloon dilatation and carotid artery stenting are used to extracranial carotid stenosis,while the treatment of vertebral artery stenting is recommended for extracranial vertebral artery stenosis.However,the intravascular interventional therapy is not recommended for intracranial arterial stenosis.The perioperative period of ischemic stroke intravascular intervention need to pay attention to the application of anti-platelet aggregation,anticoagulation,blood pressure,blood glucose,blood lipid management,and postoperative monitoring. For postoperative stent restenosis,especially after vertebral artery stenting,the guidelines recommend using drug-eluting stents,however,the dosage of heparin in intraoperative anticoagulation is still controversial.The intracranial aneurysm guidelines are more recommended for interventional therapy.The cerebral hemorrhage in different regions is recommended for different surgical procedures. Conclusions The guidelines in this field can reflect the key problems in clinical practice and keep up with the international concept.However,the quality of the methodology of the guidelines development needs to be improved. Some of them need to be updated and the recommendations should refer more evidence of the Chinese population.

Thyroid hormone therapy is the mainstay of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) management after surgery. By controlling thyrotropin within target levels, it hopes that patients could restore euthyroidism state and lower recurrence rates. However, thyroid hormone treatment has been facing challenges in termso of lenefit-risk assessment since the improved risk stratification system of persistent/recurrent disease was into use. Clinicians should weigh the potential benefits against downsides based on initial risk of disease and ongoing risk assessment of disease status. The optimal TSH level for patients with an intermediate- or high-risk for recurrence is to maintain the beneficial effects on tumor recurrence without increasing the risk of adverse events. Levothyroxine should be titrated to avoid excessive TSH suppression for low-risk patients. Only with holistic benefit-risk analysis of thyroid hormone therapy, can we further promote the quality of postoperative DTC management.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common concomitant disease in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and prediabetes. Therefore, T2DM/NAFLD patient populations are at high risk for cardiovascular disease. The occurrence and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease-related liver fibrosis and cardiovascular disease have a severe impact on the patient’s prognosis and mortality rate. The American Diabetes Association's 2024 "Guidelines for the Standardized Management of Diabetes" put forward recommendations relevant to the screening, evaluation, treatment, and management of NAFLD in T2DM and prediabetic populations, as well as liver fibrosis. The important measures for decelerating liver inflammation and fibrosis progression and the risk of cardiovascular disease are based on improvements in lifestyle methods, weight loss, and blood sugar control.
