Objective To explore the significance of the dynamic changes of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the onset and development of acute panreatitis (AP). Methods Pro-inflammatory cytokines TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 and anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10 and IL-1ra in the plasma of 48 patients with AP and 20 healthy individuals were determined with ELISA. Results The levels of all pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines in plasma was significantly higher in AP patients than in control group (P<0.05) in early stage of the disease, and then all levels were decreased gradually, consistent with the alterations of clinical symptoms of the AP patients. Conclusion The dynamic changes of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines might play important role in the onset and development of AP.

Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs)and anti-angio-genic drugs have individually demonstrated clinical benefit in the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Recent studies demonstrate that the combination of anti-EGFR and anti-angiogene-sis can more significantly enhance clinical benefit,and even can remit EGFR-TKIs resistance in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.According to the different kinds of anti-angiogenesis drugs,recent clinical studies mainly include the combination of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody bevacizumab plus EGFR-TKIs and multi-targeted receptor anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor plus EGFR-TKIs,and the for-mer results show a more significant improvement in terms of safety and efficacy in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.Therefore,the combination of bevacizumab plus EGFR-TKIs can be used as a new treatment standard in the treatment of some patients with NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of urine abnormalities for school children in Lanzhou and evaluate the signiifcance of urine screening. Methods During 2012-2013, urine from 10795 students were collected, and screened by urine reagent paper. Two weeks later, repeated screening was conducted in those who had abnormal result in the ifrst screening. Children with both results being abnormal were submitted to urine routine tests in local hospitals. Results In the ifrst screening of school children, 1653 (15.31%) children were urinary occult blood positive, 516 (4.78%) had urinary protein, 112 (1.04%) had occult blood with proteinuri and 743 (6.88%) had white cells in urine. In the second urine screening, the positive rate of occult blood was 7.55%(815 ), urinary protein was 2.13%(230), occult blood with proteinuria was 0.69%(74) and white cells in urine was 2.51%(271). Four hundred and iffty-ifve students in 1359 were submitted to urine routine tests. Thirty-two children had pyuria, 147 had hematuria, 23 had proteinuria and 13 had occult blood with proteinuria. Thirteen cases of chronic kidney disease were found in the follow-up. The incidence of urine abnormalities was signiifcantly higher in junior middle school than in primary school. Conclusions Urine screening is an effective way to ifnd asymptomatic kidney disease and urinary tract infection. Follow-up should be strengthened.

Objective:To establish a glioma cell line U251 stably expressing programmed cell death 4(PDCD4)gene,and to observe the influence of exogenous PDCD4 gene on the proliferation and cell cycle of U251 cells.Methods:Recombinant eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-PDCD4 was transfected into human glioma cell line U251 by Lipofectamine 2000,and the U251 cells stably expressing PDCD4 were established by G418 selection.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)and Western blotting were employed to detect the expression of PDCD4 mRNA and protein.Furthermore,cell proliferation and colony forming ability were determined by cell counting and colony formation assay;the cell cycle was detected by FACS.Results:High expression of PDCD4 mRNA and protein was observed in U251 cells transfected with pEGFP-PDCD4,whereas no PDCD4 mRNA and protein expression was detected in the non-transfected and vector-transfected cells.Further,cells transfected with pEGFP-PDCD4 grew more slowly and had lower colony formation rate than cells of the other two control groups(P

Objective Investigate the relationship between thromboelastography and coagulation tests,and evaluate of two kinds of methods in guiding significance in cardiac surgery patients perioperative blood transfusion.Methods Analysis of 108 patients with cardiac surgery in September 2014-August 2016 treated in our hospitalwere randomLy divided into TEG detection guide blood transfusion group (experimental group) and coagulation test guide blood transfusion group (control group),Respectively on two groups of blood transfusion rate,different components of blood transfusion and transfusion effect comparison.Results Through the comparison of the heart surgery perioperative blood use rate guided by TEG and coagulation test,found the transfusion rate of experimental group guide cryoprecipitate 25.9% and fresh frozen plasma(FFP) 33.3% was significantly lower than the control group 68.5%,however,platelet transfusion rate was significantly higher than the control group of 57.4% to 20.4%.There was no statistically significant difference of red cell suspension (RCS) infusion rate between two groups,but the RCS infusion quantity of experimental group(3.6+ 1.6) was clearly lower than the control group (5.8+ 1.9),and the FFP and cryoprecipitate infusion quantity of experimental group was obviously lower than control group(P<0.05),too.Experimental groups of intraoperative blood loss,postoperative blood loss and rebleeding rate was lower than control group (P< 0.05).Concltsion That TEG guide cardiac surgery patients perioperative blood transfusion can reduce the use amount of blood products,and the prognosis of disease outcome is better than that of routine coagulation tests guidance.TEG can reduce the surgical complications and the bleeding amount,and it has great sense to guide clinical composition blood transfusion,so it is worth promoting.
