Objective To study the effect of Sarcandra Glabra on the expression of signal transduction molecules of TGF-β1/Smads signaling pathway in miniature pig of radiation-induced lung injury.Methods 75 miniature pigs were divided into control group,radiation group and radiation plus medication group randomly.At 1 week before exposure of right lung with 15 Gy γ-rays,the miniature pigs in radiation plus medication group were given Sarcandra glabra,while those in the other groups received an equal amount of saline.Right lung were taken at weeks 2,4,8,12 and 24 after irradiation,the pathological changes in the lung tissue were observed by HE staining,and the expression of mRNA and protein of TGF-β1,Smad2,Smad3,and Smad7 were detected by real-time PCR and western blotting,respectively.Results Sarcandra glabra reduced the inflammation and fibrosis of the lung tissue in miniature pig after irradiation.Compared with control group,the expressions of TGF-β1 and Smad3 were significantly increased at 2 weeks after irradiation(P ＜ 0.05),Smad2 and Smad7 were increased at 8 and 12 weeks after irradiation(P ＜ 0.05),respectively,in the radiation group.Compared with the radiation group,the expressions of TGF-β1 and Smad2 were significantly decreased(P ＜ 0.05) from the fourth and eighth week,respectively,Smad3 had no obvious change while Smad7 was significantly increased from the second week in the radiation plus medication group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Sarcandra Glabra plays protective effect on radiation-induced lung injury in miniature pig by regulating TGF-β1,Smad2 and Smad7 expressions in the TGF-β1/Smads signaling pathway.

On the basis of pre-experiment research and the hypothesis of“amputated lumbricus”, this research was aimed to explore mechanism of active components of the amputated lumbricus to promote wound healing. Skin excision was used to establish the mice model. The amputated lumbricus extract was prepared. HE staining and immunohistochemistry techniques were used in the determination of the wound healing rate and changes of VEGF, bFGF, TGF-β1 expression during wound healing period. The results showed that compared with the blank control group, the healing rate of the amputated lumbricus extract group was better. And the HE staining showed better improvement of traumatic tissues. There was no statistic differences on the expression of VEGF and TGF-β1 between the amputated lumbricus extract group and the normal saline group (P> 0.05). The expression of bFGF in amputated lumbricus extract group reached peak earlier than the control group and also lasted a longer time. The amputated lumbricus extract group reached peak on the first day, which had a significant difference (P < 0.05) compared with the control group at the same timepoint. It was concluded that the external application of amputated lumbricus extract had wound healing effect on traumatic skin of mice. Its mechanism may be irrelevant to the expression of VEGF and TGF-β1. However, it may be related to the increasing of bFGF expression in the injured regions during the inflammation stage and proliferation stage.

Objective To explore the influence and mechanism of cytokines and protein expression of alveolar epithelial type (ACE) Ⅱ cells in Bama minipigs' right-thorax with a single 15 Gy dose irradiation.Methods All minipigs received either right thoracic irradiation or sham-irradiation under anesthesia.At 4,8,12 and 24 week post-irradiation,5 minipigs respective and random from irradiarion groups and control group were sacrificed to remove the lungs.The protein expression of surfactant associated protein (SP)-A,transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1,Vimentin and E-cadherin were detected by Western blot.The protein expression of α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) was detected by immunohistochemistry.The co-localization of SP-A and α-SMA was visualized by double immunofluorescence staining.Results At 4,8,12 and 24 week post-irradiation,a significant increase in the protein expression of α-SMA,TGF-β1 and Vimentin were observed in irradiated lung compared to sham-irradiated controls(α-SMA:t =2.46-3.26,P ＜0.05;TGF-β1:t =2.96-3.52,P ＜0.05;Vimentin:t =3.24-5.05,P ＜ 0.05).By contrast,the protein expression of SP-A and E-cadherin in irradiation group was lower than it in control group (SP-A:t =3.62-4.65,P ＜ 0.05;E-cadherin:t =2.53-4.15,P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,at 8 week after irradiation,under confocal laser scanning microscope,the co-localization of SP-A and α-SMA was observed in irradiated alveolar epithelium cells,and it was not observed in sham-irradiated controls.Conclusions These data demonstrate that E-cadherin,SP-A and TGF-β1 may act as sensitive predictors of radiation-induced lung injury(RILI).Irradiation may lead to ACE Ⅱ cells achieving a mesenchymal phenotype,namely,epithelial to mesenchymal cells transition occurs,and ACE Ⅱ cells play the important part in the development of RILI by epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

Objective To evaluate the diagnosis and surgical management for pancreatic duct stones (PDS). Methods The clinical data of 19 PDS patients admitted to our hospital from Jan. 1985 to Sep. 2003 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Epigastric pain was the first symptom in all patients,and chronic pancreatitis was associated, pancreatic carcinoma coexisted in 6 cases. Fifteen cases were found to have PDS or pancreatic duct dilation by B-type ultrasonography. Twelve patients underwent pancreatolithotomy plus side to side Roux-en-Y pancreaticojejunostomy. Pancreatoduodenectomy was performed on four patients ,caudal pancreatectomy and pancreatolithotomy on three patients. Six pancreatic carcinoma patients died during follow-up of 9～26 months. Abdominal pain was relieved completely in 11 cases and partially in 1,stones and pain recurred in one patient. Conclusions B-type ultrasonography、CT and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) are most useful diagnostic methods;Surgical procedures should be selected according to the following factors: (1) location of the pancreatic duct stones. (2) stenosis of the main pancreatic duct.(3) pancreatic duct stones associated with or without pancreatic carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of body mass index (BMI) on postoperative short-term prognosis and survival rate of gastric cancer patients.

METHODSClinical and follow-up date of 153 gastric cancer cases undergoing radical operation in our hospital from January to June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. According to BMI, patients were divided into low group (BMI<18.5, 23 cases), normal group (18.5≤BMI<25.0, 95 cases) and high group (BMI≥25.0, 35 cases). Clinicopathological features and outcomes were compared the among three groups.

RESULTSAmong three groups, the differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, number of lymph node retrieved, postoperative hospital stay, lymph node metastasis rate, tumor staging and postoperative complication morbidity were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Preoperative hemoglobin in the low group was significantly lower as compared to normal and high groups [(106.1±13.8) g/L vs. 113.5±5.2) g/L and (123.5±8.7) g/L, F=3.265, P=0.041], and so was the preoperative albumin [(38.7±2.5) g/L vs. (41.3±0.8) g/L and (43.5±1.4) g/L, F=8.516, P=0.000]. The ratio of gastric cardiac cancer in the low group was significantly lower as compared to the normal and high groups[34.8%(8/23) vs. 68.4%(65/95) and 62.9%(22/35), χ(2)=8.913, P=0.012]. Five-year survival rate of the low, normal and high groups were 43.5%, 50.5% and 65.7% respectively(P=0.189). Subgroup analysis showed that the 5-year survival rate of patients with gastric cardiac cancer in the low group was significantly lower as compared to those in the high group (25.0% vs. 84.6%, P=0.004).

CONCLUSIONSBMI dose not generally play a role in short-term outcomes and long-term survival of the gastric cancer patients. Nutritional improvement and body weight maintenance may be beneficial to low BMI patients, especially those with gastric cardiac cancer.

Objective To study the role of serine protease encoding gene prtP carried by Lactoba-cillus paracasei (Lp) in regulating mouse intestinal immunity. Methods Female BALB/c mice were ran-domly divided into seven groups and respectively administered with PBS, medium (5×108CFU/ml) and high dose (1×109CFU/ml) of Lp, Lp△prtP and ReLp△prtP for 21 consecutive days by intragastric ga-vage. Parameters including immune organ index, splenic lymphocyte transformation rate, energy metabolism in celiac macrophages, phagocytic ability of celiac macrophages and cytokines were detected. Quantitative changes in CD11c+CD80+cells in culture supernatants of splenic mononuclear cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results Compared with Lp△prtP, Lp could significantly promote the natural transformation of splenic lymphocytes, increase the level of energy metabolism in celiac macrophages, enhance the phagocytic ability of celiac macrophages, and up-regulate the expression of IFN-α, IL-10 and IFN-γ and the percentage of CD11c+CD80+cells. Conclusion Serine protease encoding gene prtP in Lp can regulate the mucosal im-mune system in mice.

Objective: To explore the effect of the level of city development on quality control indicators of health management centers. Methods: We conducted this study on the health management centers of 42 tertiary public hospitals in Shandong Province. We collected data on their basic situation and quality control indicators, such as number of health examinations, construction area, number of employees, number of electrocardiographs and ultrasonic machines, rate of real name examination, and rate of timely notification of class A and class B abnormal positive results. We also collected data on the socioeconomic indicator of cities, including GDP, resident population, financial expenditure, and physician ownership per thousand population. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between the situation of health management centers and cities' development indicators. Results: In 2017, the number of health examinations of the 42 health management centers ranged from 9 200 to 120 149, and the median was 39 326. Medians of number of electrocardiographs, ultrasound machines, X-ray machines, and CT machines were 3(2), 5(4), 2(1), and 1(2), respectively. Medians of rate of real name examination and pre-test questionnaire were 100(2%)% and 30%(63%), respectively. The resource and equipment of the health management centers were related to the GDP, financial expenditure and number of doctors in the city. It was also related to the number of health examinations, number of employees, the construction area, and the number of years since health management center establishment. The quality control indicators of the health management centers were related to factors such as GDP, population size, and financial expenditure. Rate of real name examination positively correlated with GDP (r=0.419, P=0.007), resident population (r=0.361, P=0.022), financial expenditure (r=0.430, P=0.006), and medical and health expenditure (r=0.430, P=0.006). Rate of timely notification of class A abnormal positive results positively correlated with GDP (r=0.602, P<0.001), resident population (r=0.570, P<0.001), medical and health expenditure (r=0.553, P<0.001), and physician ownership per thousand population (r=0.433, P=0.008). Conclusion The development of quality control indicators of health management centers is related to the regional social and economic development and medical investment. Therefore, increasing funds and personnel investment is conducive to the improvement of the quality of health examination and health management.
