OBJECTIVE To investigate the characteristics of hypopharyngeal carcinoma detected by narrow band imaging(NBI)endoscopy and evaluate the value of NBI in the early diagnosis of hypopharyngeal carcinoma. METHODS Between December 2008 and July 2009,a total of 46 consecutive patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma were enrolled in this study. High performance endoscopic system equipped with the white light mode and NBI mode was introduced in the examination of pharynx and larynx. The quality of visualization of morphologies of epithelial capillary and demarcation line of each lesion under NBI view was evaluated in comparison with conventional white light endoscopy. RESULTS Among the 46 patients,a total of 86 lesions were detected. The notable characteristic of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is the well demarcated brownish area and scattered brown dots. The NBI laryngoscope could provide better visualization of morphologies of epithelial capillary and demarcation line in superficial carcinoma of hypopharynx than the white light mode(P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of the complement C3/C3aR signaling pathway in the prefrontal cortex and colon neuroglia cell interactions during meth-amphetamine(METH)addiction,to observe the effects of TLR4 inhibitors as well as complement C3 elimination on METH reward and relapse behavior,and to explore the neuroinflammatory mechanisms of complement C3 acti-vation in METH addiction.METHODS ①A 14 d and 28 d rat METH addiction model was established to observe the effects of TLR4 antagonist ibudilast 3 mg·kg-1 and 10 mg·kg-1 on self-administration,reward motivation,relapse,and natural reward behavior in METH-trained 14 d rats and the effects of 0.02 mg·kg-1 complement C3 antago-nist on self-administration behavior in METH-trained 28 d rats.② Differences in the expression of TLR4,NF-κB,GRP94,C3,cathepsin L,CD68,and GFAP in the pre-frontal cortex of each group were examined using West-ern blotting.③ In addition,the expression of ATF6 in the prefrontal cortex of each group and the effects on neuro-nal and microglia/macrophage INOS,CD206 GRP94,and complement C3/C3aR.RESULTS ① Endoplasmic reticulum stress occurred in neurons and microglia after METH exposure depending on GRP94 and unfolded pro-tein responses to the ATF6 pathway.In addition,it acti-vates the TLR4-NF-κB pathway.② Microglia with high complement C3/C3aR expression in the prefrontal cortex were recruited to synaptic pruning and phagocytic responses around neurons with high GRP94,comple-ment C3/C3aR expression and these effects were blocked by complement C3 antagonists.③ In the rec-tum,GRP94 functions as a molecular chaperone for com-plement C3 and cathepsin L.Crosstalk occurs between enteric neurons high in GRP94,complement C3,and macrophages high in C3aR,located in the submucosa,lamina propria,and muscular,respectively,and all of these effects are blocked by complement C3 antago-nists.④ Treatment with the TLR4 antagonist ibudilast inhibits self-administration,reward motivation,and cue-or METH-priming in METH-trained 14 d rats,but fails to affect natural reward behavior.Ibudilast treatment attenu-ates the TLR4-NF-κB inflammatory pathway and comple-ments C3/C3aR pathway in the prefrontal cortex.CON-CLUSION Activation of the complement C3/C3aR signal-ing pathway by TLR4-NF-κB inflammatory signaling in the prefrontal cortex mediates the METH addiction pro-cess,providing an experimental basis for the clinical treatment of METH addiction,and targeting TLR4/NF-κB inflammatory signaling and complement C3/C3aR may be a new way to intervene in METH addiction.

“Stasis generating deficiency” is considered to be an important pathogenesis of recurrence after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF). Blood stasis is commonly seen after ablation together with various pathogens such as phlegm-fire, qi stagnation and retained fluid, and will lead to depletion of zang-fu (脏腑) organs and then the failure of the nourishment of the heart. Therefore, it is advised to emphasize on the importance of considering zang-fu organs depletion caused by blood stasis and various excess pathogens in dealing with the recurrence after catheter ablation. The method of dissolving stasis and supplementing deficiency simultaneously has been proposed before catheter ablation, and it is critical to calm heart and dissolve stasis, regulate and supplement internal deficiency so as to prevent the postoperative recurrence of AF. For recurrence of AF after ablation, attention should be paid to dissolving stasis and dispelling pathogens, regulating vessels and supplementing deficiency, as well as the excess pathogens such as stasis binding and phlegm fire, stasis binding and qi stagnation, stasis binding and retained fluid, and the depletion of zang-fu organs should be considered. Accordingly, the method of dissolving stasis and dispelling phlegm, subduing fire and unblocking vessels, regulating and supplementing heart and spleen; dissolving stasis and move stagnation, unblocking qi and blood, supplementing lung and boosting qi; dispelling stasis and dissolving rheum, warming yang and activating blood, consolidating the root and nourishing heart can be used respectively, so as to treat both the root and the branch simultaneously.
