Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of CGF membrane for repairing the oral mucosa defects. Methods: 39 patients were selected with oral mucosa defects after surgical resections. 19 defects were covered by autologous CGF membranes as the experimental group. 20 defects were not covered by membrane as the control group. Regular follow-up were performed at one week, two weeks, three weeks, one month, two months, three months after the operations. And wound healings were compared in the groups. Results: CGF membranes of the 19 patients in the experimental group survived completely. And no infection occurred. The wound healing rate of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at two weeks, three weeks and one month after the operations. And the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The VAS score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group at one week, two weeks, three weeks and one month(P<0.05). The mean score of VSS score in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Repair of the oral mucosa defects with CGF membrane can shorten the period of wound healing, relieve the postoperative discomfort and reduce the scar. It was a safe and effective method worthy to be popularized.

Objective:To understand the current situation of physicians′ competency in China and statistically analyze its influencing factors, hence providing referential evidences for promoting their competency.Methods:The evaluation scale for Chinese physicians′ competency was developed by referring to sophisticated overseas evaluation frameworks. Based on the electronic platform of the medical alliance, stratified sampling was conducted at 39 hospitals in 13 provinces, from which 2 156 physicians were surveyed, and statistical analysis was made on the current situation and influential factor of their competency in 6 dimensions(medical knowledge, diagnosis and treatment, scientific research and teaching, interpersonal communication, spirit of professionalism, population health)Results:The score range in multiple dimensions of physicians′ competency was between 2.85 and 3.89(5 in total), among which spirit of professionalism dimension scores the highest, and teaching and research dimension scores the lowest. Logistic regression analysis shows that their competency level in 6 dimensions is correlated to a range of factors, including gender, degree, title, supervisor qualifications, standardized training program of specialist physicians, and affiliation or not to teaching hospitals( P<0.05). Conclusions:Their overall competency is expected to be elevated. To name a few, they are lack of teaching and research abilities, and need to conduct clinical-oriented scientific research; they are expected to enrich knowledge structure, and need to embrace a wider concept of health; they need to improve their non-technical service abilities, and should further emphasize their humanistic quality; physicians′ practice competency depends upon their extent of medical education, and ensuring the quality of standardized training becomes the key measure.

Objective To study the efficacy of performing transvaginal Prosima mesh with high uterosacral ligament suspension (HUS) in treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Methods From July 2010 to February 2011,70 patients with severe POP underwent transvaginal prosima mesh with HUS in First Affiliated Hospital,General Hospital of People's Liberation Army.Clinical parameters of perioperation were collected.After 1 month and 2 - 3 months,perineal two-dimensional ultrasound examination was performed to measure mesh length in midsagittal plane.Validated prolapse quality of life questionnaires,pelvic floor distress inventsry short form 20 (PFDI-20) and pelvic floor impact questionnaire short form 7 (PFIQ-7) were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect.The mean results of pre-operative PFIQ-7 and PFDI-20 was 54 and 51,respectively.Results Median operation time was ( 195 ± 47 ) min and median blood loss was (160 ±64) ml.All the patients were followed for a mean time of 13 months (2 - 19 months).Seven cases were found with mesh exposure with less than 1 cm2.The objective cure rate was 100％.The mean score of post-operative PFIQ-7 and PFDI-20 were both 19,which were significantly lower than those of preoperation ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Anterior Prosima mesh was 3.5 cm at 1 month by ultrasound examination,and the second result of ultrasound scans was 2.8 cm at 2 - 3 month,which were both shortened 2.5 cm and 3.2 cm when compared with that of original size.Conclusions Transvaginal Prosima mesh placement with HUS is a safe and efficient surgery with less complication.Although mesh became shorter after 2 - 3 month,it did not affect surgery efficacy.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of Wuzhi capsule/schisantherin A (SchA) combined with cyclophosphamide on the pharmacokinetics of cyclophosphamide (CTX) in rats. METHODS: A total of 36 rats were randomly divided into CTX group (via tail vein, iv, CTX solution 300 mg/kg), CTX+WZC group (ig, Wuzhi capsule 300 mg/kg+via tail vein, iv, CTX solution 300 mg/kg), CTX + SchA low-dose, medium-dose, high-dose and excessive high-dose groups (ig, SchA 30, 300, 3 000, 30 000 μg/kg+via tail vein, iv, CTX solution 300 mg/kg) with 6 rats in each group. Blood samples were collected from orbital venous plexus of rats before medication and 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48 h after medication.UPLC-MS/MS method was applied for concentration determination of CTX and its metabolites [de-chloroethyl CTX (DC-CTX), 4-ketone CTX (4-keto CTX), carboxyl phosphamide (CPM)] in plasma of rats. The plasma concentration-time curve was obtained. The pharmacokinetic parameters were fitted by using DAS 2. 0 software. RESULTS: The maximum plasma concentration (cmax) of DC-CTX in CTX group, CTX+WZC group, CTX+SchA low-dose, medium-dose, high-dose and excessive high-dose groups were (22 167. 85 ±2 844. 93), (10 920. 53 ± 1 490. 89), (18 951. 29 ± 1 558. 81), (18 622. 08 ± 791. 19), (18 515. 20 ± 2 560. 61), (15 133. 21 ± 1 305. 07) μg/mL, respectively; the area under the curves (AUCo-48 h) were (173 864. 01 ± 65 342. 21), (100 996. 98 ± 33 530. 02), (137 028. 16 ± 45 975. 19), (131 650. 18 ± 53 196. 41), (113 699. 40 ± 34 131. 36), (110 773. 27 ± 30 307. 15) μg·mL/h, respectively. Compared with CTX group, cmax of DC-CTX in CTX group, CTX+SchA low-dose, medium-dose, high-dose and excessive high-dose groups were decreased by 50. 74％, 14. 51％, 16. 10％, 16. 48％, 31. 73％, respectively. AUC0-48 h were decreased by about 42. 23％, 21. 45％, 24. 63％, 33. 37％, 36. 55％, respectively; with statistical significance (P<0. 05). The pharmacokinetic indexes as t1/2, tmax had no significant change. CONCLUSIONS: To some degree, both WZC and SchA can reduce the generation of DC-CTX, which indicates both of them can inhibit CTX toxicity metabolism pathway so as to reduce the generation of toxic metabolite chloroacetaldehyde. The inhibitory effect of SchA on toxicity metabolism pathway is weaker than that of WZC, and does not have a dose-dependent inhibitory effect.

Objective: To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of HOXC8 on the radiosensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer cell line A549, aiming to provide novel ideas for clinical combined treatment. Methods: The A549 cells with stable knockdown of HOXC8 were constructed by using lentivirus and validated by qPCR and Western blot. The radiosensitivity of A549 stable cell line was assessed by plate clone formation assay. The expression levels of TGF-β₁ and the proteins in the downstream signal pathway after knockdown of HOXC8 were detected by Western blot. Results: The A549 cells with stable knockdown of HOXC8 were successfully constructed. The viability and clonogenic capacity of A549 cells were significantly reduced after silencing HOXC8. Silencing HOXC8 also increased the sensitivity of A549 cells to radiotherapy and significantly inhibited the expression of TGF-β₁ and p-Smad2/3 proteins in the downstream signaling pathway. Conclusion Silencing HOXC8 can increase the sensitivity of A549 cells to radiotherapy probably by inhibiting TGF-β₁ signaling transduction. HOXC8 might play an important role in A549 cells.

Objective To investigate the effect of lncRNA CCAT1 and miR-130b-3p on the radiosensitivity of human pancreatic cancer cells PANC-1.Methods Real-time PCR was used to detect the relative expression levels of CCAT1 and miR-130b-3p in pancreatic cancer tissues and cell lines including PANC-1 cells irradiated with 2 Gy X-rays.After silencing CCAT1 and/or inhibiting miR-130b-3p expression,cell apoptosis rate,Caspase 3 activity and cell survival were detected by flow cytometry,Caspase 3 activity detection kit and colony formation assay,respectively.Cell survival curve was stimulated by the multi-target single-hit model.Based on the starBase v2.0 online analysis,the luciferase reporter gene assay,RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation assay (RIP) and Real-time PCR assay were applied to verify the relationship between CCAT1 and miR-130b-3p.Results CCAT1 expression was up-regulated (t=6.322-8.555,P＜0.05),but miR-130b-3p expression was down-regulated (t =3.950-18.795,P＜ 0.05) in the radiation-resistant pancreatic cancer tissues,pancreatic cancer cell lines and 2 Gy-irradiated PANC-1 cells.When the CCAT1 silenced PANC-1 cells were irradiated with 2 Gy,cell survival fraction decreased (t=2.929,5.047,5.234,5.125,P＜0.05),apoptosis rate and Caspase 3 activity increased (t=6.953,6.836,P＜0.05).CCAT1 could selectively regulate miR-130b-3p expression.Inhibition of miR-130b-3p expression could enhance PANC-l cell survival (t =4.564,6.736,8.656,P＜0.05),but reduced apoptosis rate (t=5.234,P＜0.05) and Caspase 3 activity (t=10.440,P＜0.05).Conclusions Silencing CCAT1 promotes the expression of miR-130b-3p and enhances radiosensitivity of PANC-1 cells.

Objective: To investigate the pyroptosis induced by different enteroviruses in human neuroblastoma cells SH-SY5Y and the differences among them. Methods: SH-SY5Y cells were infected with nine strains of enterovirus respectively, including enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), Coxsackievirus A (CA), Coxsackievirus B (CB), Echovirus (Echo). The cellular morphology of infected and control groups were observed and activity of Caspase-1 of infected and control groups were detected by flow cytometry at 48 h post infection. Results: The activity of Caspase-1 induced by EV-A71 was higher than control (P<0.001), and the activity of Caspase-1 induced by EV-A71 isolated from severe case was significantly higher than that induced by EV-A71 isolated from common case (P<0.001). The activity of Caspase-1 induced by CA was at a lower level. The activity of Caspase-1 induced by CB and Echo were both significantly higher than that induced by EV-A71 and control (P<0.001). Cytopathic effects (CPE) were found to be related with the activity of Caspase-1. Conclusions EV-A71, CB and Echo all could induce pyroptosis mediated by Caspase-1 in SH-SY5Y cells, but the ability of CA to induce pyroptosis was at a lower level, which may provide evidences for further study on mechanism of neuropathy caused by enterovirus.

Objective:To investigate whether lncRNA LINC00909 affected the radiosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells by targeting miR-548-3p.Methods:The expression levels of LINC00909 and miR-584-3p in colorectal cancer and adjacent tissues were detected by qRT-PCR. The colorectal cancer cells SW480 and SW620 were cultured in vitro, and transfected with si-NC, si-LINC00909, miR-NC, miR-584-3p mimics, si-LINC00909, and anti-miR-NC and si-LINC00909, and anti-miR-584-3p, respectively. The cells were irradiated with a dose of 4 Gy. The cell survival fraction and sensitization enhancement ratio (SER) were detected by clone formation assay. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay. Cell migration and invasion were assessed by Trans well chamber assay. The targeting relationship between LINC00909 and miR-584-3p was confirmed by dual luciferase reporter assay. The effect of interfering with the expression of LINC00909 or inhibiting the expression of miR-584-3p on the weight of the xenograft tumor after irradiation was evaluated by subcutaneous xenograft experiment in nude mice. Results:The expression level of LINC00909 in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly up-regulated ( P<0.05), whereas the expression level of miR-584-3p was significantly down-regulated ( P<0.05). After interfering with the expression of LINC00909 or miR-584-3p overexpression, the cell survival fraction score was significantly reduced ( P<0.05), the SERs were 2.017 and 1.762, and cell proliferation, migration and invasion were suppressed (all P<0.05). Dual luciferase reporter assay confirmed that LINC00909 could target and bind to miR-584-3p. After interfering with the expression of LINC00909, the weight of the transplanted tumor was significantly reduced ( P<0.05), whereas the weight of the transplanted tumor was significantly increased after co-transfection with anti-miR-584-3p ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Interfering with the expression of LINC00909 can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion ability of colorectal cancer cells by up-regulating the expression of miR-548-3p, thereby enhancing the cell radiosensitivity.
