Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine or S-1 combined with oxaliplatin or cisplatin in the treat-ment of advanced gastric cancer. Methods:Six databases including Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, CNKI, VIP and WanFang were retrieved. Randomized controlled trials ( RCT) in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer were involved for the quality assess-ment and Meta-analysis. Results:A total of 14 RCT involving 1 051 patients were included. There were no significant differences in the total effective rate, complete remission rate and partial remission rate between the two groups(P>0. 05). In the safety evaluation, the incidence of hand-foot syndrome was higher in capecitabine-based regimens than that in S-1-based regimens[RR=2. 59,95%CI (1. 61,4. 17),P<0. 000 1], while the incidence of stomatitis was lower in capecitabine-based regimens[RR=0. 64,95%CI(0. 50, 0. 82),P=0. 000 4]. The other adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting, diarrhea,neuropathy,dysfunction of liver and kidney, anemia, leukopenia, neutropenia and thrombocytopenia exhibited no significant differences between the two groups(P>0. 05). Con-clusion:Capecitabine combined with oxaliplatin or cisplatin has similar efficacy with S-1 combined with oxaliplatin or cisplatin in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer, and the incidence of hand-foot syndrome is higher in capecitabine-based regimens and the inci-dence of stomatitis is higher in S-1-based regimens.

Objective To discuss the effects of electroacupuncture intervention in different acupoints of rats models with diarrhea type irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS).Methods The rat models were established with acute and chronic stimulation. The rats were divided into the normal control group, model group, “Taichong” (LR3) + “Zusanli” (ST36) group, and “Tianshu” (ST25) + “Zusanli” (ST36) group. Electroacupuncture was applied to bilateral corresponding acupoints for 20 minutes, every other day for 7 times. The physical signs of each rat were observed. The contents of 5-HT, NE and CGRP in the rats’ plasma were detected by sandwich ELISA. Results Compared with the normal group, the contents of 5-HT and NE in the model group were obviously higher and the content of CGRP decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the contents of 5-HT and NE in all treatment groups were lower and the content of CGRP increased (P<0.05). There was no difference between the “Taichong” (LR3) + “Zusanli” (ST36) and “Tianshu” (ST25) + “Zusanli” (ST36) groups.Conclusion The mechanism of electroacupuncture may be realized through lowering the contents of 5-HT and NE in the model rats and increasing the content of CGRP to treat D-IBS.

Objective To study the relationship of serum UA level with coronary heart disease (CHD) and cerebral stroke in elderly female essential hypertension (EH) patients. Methods Four hundred and seventy-two female EH patients admitted to our hospital from February 2014 to June 2018 were divided into normal UA group (n = 389) and hyperuricemia group (n = 83) according to their serum UA level. The clinical characteristics, blood pressure, incidence of CHD and cerebral stroke were compared between the two groups. The relationship of serum UA level with CHD and cerebral stroke was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results The age was significantly older, the course of hypertension was significantly longer, the SBP and BMI were significantly higher, the circumstances of lumber and buttock were significantly longer, the serum FPG,TB, UA levels and the incidence of grade 2 hypertension and grade 3 hypertension were significantly higher while the serum HDL-C level was significantly lower in hyperuricemia group than in normal UA group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum UA level was positively related with CHD and cerebral stroke in elderly female EH patients after adjustment for risk factors such as age (OR = 1.003, 95%CI:1.000-1.007, P=0.045;OR = 1.006, 95%CI:1.000-1.012,P = 0.042). Conclusion Hyperuricemia is closely related with CHD and cerebral stroke in elederly EH patients.
