Objective To determine whether Cox-2 inhibitor can reduce the risk of cardia carcinoma. Methods Paraffin-embedded specimens from 48 patients with esophageal, gastric or cardia carcinomas were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for expression of Cox-2 protein. Expression of Cox-2mRNA was assessed by RT-PCR and ISPCR in 29 cases of them. None of these patients were currently taking NSAIDs or glucocorticoid. Results The staining scores were 4.15?1.9 in the group with esophageal cancer, 3.66?1.16 in the group with gastric cancer, and 2.93?1.03 in the group with cardia cancer, respectively. There was no significant difference between groups of gastric cancer and cardia cancer. The ratio of cases with positive expression of Cox-2 mRNA was 87.5% in the group with cardia carcinoma, 100% in the group with esophageal cancer and the group with gastric cancer. And no significant difference was found between them. Cox-2mRNA was mainly located in cytoplasm but was found in nuclear too. No difference was found in the location of Cox-2 expression in the three kinds of cancers. Conclusion Cox-2 expression in cardia carcinoma was higher than in the normal group. Its pathological characteristics were almost the same as those in gastric and esophageal cancers. Cox-2 inhibitor possibly have a chemopreventive effect on cardia carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the attentional network in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE) and the disease-related factors. Methods Fity-four patients with TLE and 40 controls were enrolled in our hospital from January 2007 to December 2008.The computerized ANT software was used for evaluating the attentional network efficiency and the clinical date of the patients with TLE were recorded. Logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors of attentional network efficiency. Results The mean reaction time(TLE:688.2±138.1 ms;Control:625.1±100.1 ms, t=2.06, P <0.05)and executive control network efficiency (TLE:155.7±57.0 ms;Control:108.0±33.8 ms, t=4.62, P <0.01) of the TLE group were lower than the healthy control group. The efficiency of alerting network and orienting network between the two groups were no significant difference. Logistic regression analysis showed that the positive epileptiform activity was an independent risk factor of the attentional impairment(95% CI : 1.03～42.33, OR =6.603, P =0.043). Conclusions The ANT demonstrate that patients with TLE may accompany with attentional executive control network efficiency impairment. Epileptiform discharge may cause attentional executive network efficiency impairment.

Objective To explore the effect of Baihe Zhimu Tang(百合知母汤,BZT) on the airway inflammation in bronchial asthma rats.Methods Forty Wistar rats were randomized into control group,asthma model group,BZT group and dexamethasone (DX) group with 10 rats in each group.The bronchial asthma rat model was built by intraperitoneal injection of 10％ ovalbumin (OVA) and ultrasonic atomizing inhalation of 2％ OVA except for the control group.Thirty minutes before every ultrasonic atomizing inhalation,the BZT group was given BZT 3.68 g/(kg · d) by gastric perfusion;the DX group was administered DX injection 1.2 mg/(kg · d) by gastric perfusion;as for the control group and asthma model group,they were given normal saline of the same volume;all groups were intervened for 14 days.After that,HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of lung tissue,the levels of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) were measured,and the cell cycle and calcineurin (CaN) activity were observed in separated peripheral blood lymphocytes.Results For the asthma model group,there was a lot of inflammatory cell infiltration in the bronchial wall under light microscope,the content of IL-4 in the plasma was higher than that in the control group,while the content of IL-2 decreased,the proportion of G0/G1 phase lymphocytes decreased,the proportion of S phase and G2/M increased,and the CaN activity of lymphocytes increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05).For the BZT group,there was only a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration in the lung tissue under light microscope,the IL-4 level in the plasma was lower than that in the asthma model group,while the IL-2 content increased,the proportion of G0/G1 phase lymphocytes increased,the proportion of S phase and G2/M decreased significantly,and the CaN activity of lymphocytes decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion BZT could reduce lymphocyte proliferation,decrease IL-4 level and reduce airway inflammation by reducing CaN activity in peripheral blood lymphocytes of bronchial asthma rats.

Objective To investigate the differential expression profile in the progeny of human liver cells surviving from ionizing radiation.Methods Complemental DNA gene chip was used to measure the transcriptional profile in progeny of HL-7702 cells exposed to 0, 2, 4, and 6 Gy of 60Co γ-rays, and the differentially expressed genes HAVCR2 and RAN were further identified by real-time PCR.Results The transcription level of 262 genes, 2746 genes and 3406 genes changed in the progeny of survival cells at 2, 4 and 6 Gy, respectively.A total of 71 common differentially expressed genes were screened, most of which were associated with transduction, cell cycle regulation, cellular immunity, cytoskeleton and movement, cell replication and repair mechanism.Conclusions Ionizing radiation could induce the expression changes of many genes, which might reveal the molecular mechanisms of gene expression in radiation induced genomic instability.

Background/Aims: Studies have shown that nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) treatment can reduce the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, but it is unclear which NA is most effective. We performed a meta-analysis and systematic review comparing the efficacies of NAs in CHB patients. Methods: We searched literature databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies that analyzed the hepatic biochemical response, virological response, seroconversion rate, drug resistance rate, and HCC incidence rate in CHB patients treated with NAs. Meta-analyses were performed with RevMan and Stata/SE software. Results: Twelve cohort studies and one RCT were selected, in which entecavir (ETV), lamivudine (LAM), telbivudine (LdT), and/or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) were evaluated in CHB patients. The meta-analysis showed that ETV was superior to LAM with regard to the HCC incidence (p<0.001), biochemical response (p=0.001), virological response (p=0.02), and drug resistance (p<0.001), and ETV was superior to LdT with regard to the virological response (p<0.001) and drug resistance (p<0.001). We found no significant difference between ETV and TDF with regard to the HCC incidence (p=0.08), biochemical response (p=0.39), virological response (p=0.31), serological conversion (p=0.38), or drug resistance (p=0.95). NA-treated patients with pre-existing cirrhosis had a 5.49 times greater incidence of HCC than those without cirrhosis (p<0.001). Conclusions ETV or TDF should be used for long-term first-line monotherapy in CHB patients according to the current guidelines. Standardized protocols are needed for future studies of ETV and TDF to facilitate conclusive comparisons. Patients with cirrhosis are at significantly elevated risk for HCC, despite the benefits of NA treatment.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the efficacy and safety of antiviral treatment in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and decompensated cirrhosis and determine the effects of virological response on long-term prognosis.

METHODSSixty-six consecutive,interferon (IFN)-na(i)ve patients with HCV infection and decompensated cirrhosis were enrolled in this prospective study. All patients were given a 48-to 72-week course of IFN plus ribavirin (RBV) combined therapy,with a low accelerating dosage regimen using either:pegylated (PEG)-IFNa-2b at 1.0-1.5 mug/kg/week,PEG-IFNa-2a at 90-180 mug,or standard IFN-a-2b at 3MU,every other day.RBV was given at 800 to 1000 mg/day. All patients were routinely monitored for adverse drug reactions and virological response.Effects of treatments on patient survival were assessed by Kaplan-Meier analysis.

RESULTSAt the end of treatment,74.2% of patients were HCV RNA-negative,with 45.5% having achieved sustained virological response and 28.8% having relapsed;the remaining 25.7% of patients showed non-virological response (NVR). Among the patients with HCV genotype 1, 65.9% achieved end-of-treatment virological response (ETVR) and 34.1% achieved SVR;among the patients with HCV genotype 2,90.9% achieved ETVR and 68.2% achieved SVR. The positive and negative predictive values of early virological response (EVR) for ETVR were 95.7% and 75.0% respectively, and for SVR were 65.2% and 100% respectively. Compared with baseline,patients who achieved ETVR had better liver function,as evidenced by changes in levels of total bilirubin,alanine aminotransferase and albumin,as well as prothrombin activity and Child-Pugh score (t =4.564,11.486,2.303,2.699,3.694 respectively, all P less than 0.05).Compared with the NVR patients, the ETVR patients had lower risk of hepatic decompensation and hepatocellular carcinoma, and had improved survival (x2=18.756,6.992,7.580, respectively, all P less than 0.05).Twelve (18.2%) patients experienced serious adverse events,with 10 requiring premature treatment withdrawal and 2 dying.

CONCLUSIONAntiviral treatment for patients with HCV infection and decompensated cirrhosis using interferon in a low accelerating dosage regimen in combination with ribavirin is feasible.Patients who achieved ETVR had significantly improved long-term prognosis.
