Objective To determine the expression of cancer stem cell markers, CD133, CD44 and OCT-4, in small cell lung cancer cell line NCI-H82 and confirm the specific markers. Methods NCI-H82 cells were cultured, and the expressions of markers (CD133, CD44 and OCT-4) were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expressions of CD133, CD44 and OCT-4 in 79 tissues with small cell lung cancer. Results In NCI-H82 cells, the florescence was positive in CD133 and CD44 and negative in OCT-4. In the tissues, the expression of CD133 and CD 44 was related with tumor size, lymph node metastasis and clinical stage (P< 0.05), while OCT-4 was negative expression. Conclusion CD133 and CD44 might be the cancer stem cell markers of small cell lung cancer, which maybe have clinical significance on diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To observe the efficacy of imatinib on the treatment of bcr-abl positive essential thrombocythemia (ET). Methods A case of bcr-abl positive ET resistant to hydroxyurea (HU) treating with imatinib (200~400 mg/d) was reported and related literatures were reviewed. Results A case of bcr-abl positive ET was initially treated with 1.5~2.0 g/d HU, the platelet count decreased to 562x109/L after 4 weeks; however, the platelet count increased to (1020~1330)×109/L treating with same dose of HU 16 months later. With the elevation of HU to 3.0 g/d, platelet count was still high(1290~1780)x109/L companied with the very low white blood cell count(0.3~0.9)×109/L. While treating with imatinib (400 mg/d) for 1 month,the platelet count decreased to 390×109/L and white blood cell count was 0.5×109/L; Furthermore, treating with 200×300 mg/d of imatinib, the platelet and white blood cell count recovered in normal after 1 month,and bcr-abl fusion gene negative 2 months later. Conclusion Imatinib may be the effective targeting drug for the bcr-abl positive ET, and the bcr-abl positive ET is sensitive to low dose imatinib.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting the priority use of essential medicines. METHODS:The use amount ratio of essential medicines in 2 third-level grade-A hospitals in Beijing from 2011 to 2013 was statistically investigated. And the literatures related to policies of essential medicines and application were retrieved for in-depth analysis. RESULTS:The use amount ratios of essential medicines in the outpatient and emergency departments in Beijing Hospital of Ministry of Health from 2011 to 2013 were respectively 24.04%,23.10% and 22.76%;and the use amount ratios of essential medicines of inpatients were respectively 16.56%,14.52% and 12.04%. The use amount ratios of essential medicines in the outpatient and emergency depart-ments in Beijing Friendship Hospital(a pilot hospitals of cancelling drug addition medical reform)in the 3 years were respectively 21.59%,19.85% and 22.93%;the use amount ratios of essential medicines of inpatients were respectively 17.70%,17.62% and 15.89%. The use amount ratios of essential medicines did not meet 25%-30% of the requirements. CONCLUSIONS:Cancelling the drug addition and adjusting the types and quantity of essential medicine list had no obvious effects on the use amount ratios of gen-eral third-level grade-A hospitals. It is suggested to promote the priority use of essential medicines by systems of medical insurance total amount prepayment,single disease payment or diagnosis related groups-based prepayment and the free policy of essential medi-cines,rather than administrative order.

Objective To investigate and determine the dietary intake level and food source of elements in Kashin-Beck disease(KBD) and non-endemic KBD areas in parts of Aba Autonomous Prefecture , Sichuan Province. Methods Three KBD villages were selected from each county including the counties of Songpan , Jiuzhaigou and Ruoergai in Aba Autonomous Prefecture with multi stage random sampling method in 2010 , and 122 KBD patients who were diagnosed at county-level or higher-level hospitals were selected from villages. One non-KBD village was selected randomly from each county and 43 controls without KBD or other bone and joint disease were selected in proportion to the number of investigated KBD patients. Dietary intake of each object was recorded 24 hours before the survey using a 24 hour dietary survey method and intake of each kind of food(cooked food) was recorded. Three day dietary intake of each surveyed object was recorded in continuous and the average value was calculated. The local resident representative food samples were collected and 20 kinds of elements in these samples were determined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry ( ICP-MS ) and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry(ICP-AES), and daily elements intake was calculated and compared with the relevant intake standards. Results Daily intakes of vegetables and meat were 126.72, 28.25 g, respectively, in patients with KBD. More than 3 times of brick tea was drank by KBD patients than non-KBD people (P<0.05). Per capita daily intakes of Ca, Fe, Mg, K, Na, Zn, I, Cu and Co were less than recommended nutrient intake or allowable daily intake in both groups. More than 80% patients with KBD overtook more Al and Pb than tolerable upper intake levels. Conclusion There is a single dietary structure and a serious shortage of a variety of essential elements intake in parts of Aba Autonomous Prefecture, and the dietary intake level of elements is different between two groups.
