Objective Discuss the treatment mechanism of Xiaofeng Xuanqiao Decoction on guinea pig with al ergic rhinitis. [Methods]Sixty guinea pigs were randomized into 6 groups: normal control group, al ergic rhinitis(AR) group, high-dosage, equivalent-dosage, low-dosage Xiaofeng Xuanqiao decoction group, and loratadine group. AR guinea pig model was successful y established by ovalbumin(OVA) chal enge method. Xiaofeng Xuanqiao decoction and loratadine were applied to intervene AR guinea pig. The serum levels of IgE and IL-4, IFN-γ, histamine were determined by ELISA methods. [Results]The expression levels of IgE and IL-4, histamine significantly increased,meanwhile the level of IFN-γsignificantly lower compared with the normal group(P<0.01). Compared with that in AR model group, the serum level of IgE and IL-4, histamine in high-dosage Xiaofeng Xuanqiao decoction group significantly decreased,but the level of IFN-γ increased(P<0.01); the levels of IgE and IL-4, histamine decreased in other medication groups, meanwhile the level of IFN-γ increased compared with the model group(P<0.05).[Conclusion]Xiaofeng Xuanqiao can promote the produce of IFN-γ, inhibit the formation of IL-4, promote the secretion of Th1/Th2 cytokines to restore balance, to relieve eosinophil activation, reduce the synthet-ic of IgE, reduce the release of histamine, in many ways to prevent al ergic rhinitis inflammation, to achieve therapeutic effect.

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of serum gastric function detection in early gastric cancer screening.Methods Forty-two cases of gastric cancer,75 cases of benign gastric diseases and 44 individuals undergoing normal physical examination in our hospital from December 2015 to December 2015 were selected as the research subjects,performed the gastroscopic examiantion,simultaneously conducted the microscopic biopsy,and extracted blood for conducting the related indexes detection of gastric function,including pepsinogen Ⅰ (PG Ⅰ),pepsinogen Ⅱ (PG Ⅱ),PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ,gastrin 17 (G17) and helicobactor pylori(HP).Serum gastric function situation in the research subjects of 4 groups was studied.Results PG Ⅰ and PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ expressions from low to high were gastric cancer group,atrophic gastritis group,gastric ulcer group,superficial gastritis group and normal group respectively,the pairwise comparison had statistical difference (P<0.05);G17 in the normal group was lower that that in gastric ulcer group,atrophic gastritis group and gastric cancer group G17 in the gastric ulcer group was lower than that in the gastric cancer group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).The HP positive rate in the normal group was lower than that in the superficial gastritis group,the superficial gastritis group was lower than the gastric ulcer group,the gastric ulcer group was lower than the atrophic gastritis group,and the atrophic gastritis group was lower the gastric cancer group,the differences had statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusion Serum gastric function detection can better distinguish gastric benign lesions from malignant lesions,and can serve as an important indicator of early screening,which is easy to accept with low cost,for the patients with positive results,the gastroscopic examination should be conducted in order to improve the early diagnostic rate.

Objective To investigate the association between preoperative serum TSH level and differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC).Methods The relationship between TSH concentration and differentiated thyroid cancer in 400 qualified patients with thyroid nodules was retrospectively analyzed from January 2009 to December2011 in our hospital.Based on the TSH values,the patients were divided into five groups.Results Preoperative serum TSH level in DTC group was higher than that in benign thyroid nodales group [(2.94 ± 1.74 vs1.92 ± 1.45) μ IU/ml,P＜0.01].The risk of DTC increased as serum level of TSH rose in the patients with thyroid nodule.The incidences of DTC were 27.8％,34.0％,40.0％,63.4％,and 70.2％ respectively in groups with TSH＜0.27,0.27-1.44,1.45-2.19,2.20-4.20,and ＞4.20 μIU/ml groups.TSH level in the group with cervical lymph node metastasis was higher than that without metastasis (P＜0.01).Conclusions The likelihood of thyroid cancer increases with increased serum TSH concentration.High TSH level seems to be associated with lymph node metastasis.Preoperative serum TSH level might be a risk predictor for DTC.

Objective To determine the relation between enlarged perihepatic lymph node (PLN) and viraemia,and to find out whether there is a difference in PLN size between the healthy individuals and patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Methods Seventy-four patients with HCV infection and 283 healthy individuals were examined by two-dimensional ultrasound. The length and thickness of lymph node were measured. The lymph-node area index(LN area index) was calculated. The LN area index was evaluated by the ROC curve and compared with serum HCV core antigen (HCV-Ag) levels by correlation analysis. Results Detection rate, the length and thickness, LN area index of group with HCV infection were significantly different by compared with the normal control group ( P < 0. 001 ). The ROC curve showed that the LN area index as a diagnostic indicator had high sensitivity and specificity. The LN area index showed a significant correlation with HCV-Ag level (r = 0.436, P <0.05), but no significant differences were found between LN area index and HCV-Ag grade. Conclusions Perihepatic lymphadenopathy indicates viraemia,and LN area index of 100 mm2 is a reference index in estimating whether patients have HCV infection.

Results Thirty five hypertrophic parathyroids were resected from the 9 cases with SHP,and a left thyroidectomy was carried out for one case.Some parathyroid tissue has been grafted into the forearm for every patient.All of those grafts have survived.The symptoms va nished in all and the relevent laboratory tests recovered to normal after the surgery. Conclusions This surgical strategy is safe and effective for SHP not benefited from medical therapy.

The effect of iodinated contrast on thyroid function and auto-antibodies after a single percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was explored.In 96 patients with randomly selected PCI,serum TSH,T3,T4,thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb),thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) were determined preoperatively as well as by 3-6 months postoperatively.After PCI,the level of TSH,T3,T4,showed no significant changes; TgAb,TPOAb which were positive preoperatively,after 3-6 months were statistically increased(P＜0.05).Iodinated contrast in PCI has no significant influence on thyroid function and auto-antibodies after 3-6 months.

Objective: This study aims to observe the efficacy and toxicity of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) combined with weekly topotecan hydrochloride (Top-Hyd) chemotherapy on patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer. Methods: Medical data of 42 patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer between June 2008 and June 2011 were retrospectively reviewed. OAOf these 42 patients, 22 underwent 3DCRT combined with weekly Top–Hyd chemotherapy, whereas the remaining 20 underwent simple chemotherapy (SCT). Doses from 45 Gy to 65 Gy were planned to deliver fractions ranging from 1.8 Gy to 2 Gy to patient abdomen and pelvis. Top–Hyd (4 mg/m2) was aintravenously administered 1, 8, and 15 days from radiotherapy, with a cycle of 28 days. Results: By December 31, 2011, the median follow-up time for the 3DRT group was 18.5 months, whereas that for the SCT group was 10.8 months . The total response rate and the clinical beneficial rate were significantly higher in the 3DCRT group than in the SCT group (total response rate, 42.1% vs. 11.1%; clinical beneficial rate, 68.4% vs 22.2% at P< 0.05). The median of progression-free survival time was 9.8 months for the 3DCRT group and 6.6 months for the SCT group. The median total survival time was 19.7 months in the 3DCRT group, and 12.5 months in the SCT group. Significant differences between the 2 groups were indicated (P<0.001). No significant difference in overall toxicity was indicated between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: The combined 3DCRT treatment and Top-Hyd chemotherapy results in enhanced response and tolerable toxicity compared with SCT in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer infiltrating the pelvic and retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis. So, it may be the salvage regimen for recurrent ovarian cancer and provide a new therapeutic option for the consolidation treatment of advanced ovarian carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ultra-low dose naloxone on postoperative hyperalgesia caused by large-dose remifentanil.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ adult patients,scheduled for gastrointestinal surgery,were randomly assigned into 2 groups (n =20 each):large dose remifentail group (group R) and ultra-low dose naloxone group (group N).Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of remifentanil,propofol and cisatracurium and maintained with inhalation of sevoflurane and infusion of remifentanil.The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.In group R,remifentanil was infused at a rate of 0.25 μg· kg-1 · min-1 starting from the beginning of skin incision.The infusion rate was adjusted according to hemodynamics during operation and subsequently increased/decreased by 0.05 μg· kg-1· min-1 each time.In group N,naloxone was infused at 0.1 μg·kg-1· h-1 while infusing remifentanil,naloxone infusion was stopped at the beginning of peritoneum closure and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group R.All patients were sent to post-anesthesia care unit after surgery and stayed there for 90 min.Morphine was given when need.The patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was used for postoperative analgesia after leaving post-anesthesia care unit.The first pain time was calculated.The morphine consumption and complications such as nausea,vomiting and pruritus were recorded at 15,30,60 and 90 min and 2,6,24,48 and 72 h after surgery.Results Compared with group R,the morphine consumption was significantly reduced at each time point after surgery,the first pain time was prolonged,and incidence of nausea was decreased (P ＜ 0.05),while no significant change was found in the incidence of vomiting and prutirus in group N (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Infusing ultra-low dose naloxone (0.1μg· kg-1 ·h-1) during operation can attenuate postoperative hyperalgesia caused by large-dose remifentanil in patients.
