Objective To investigate the long-term efficacy of autologous stem cell transplantation for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Long-term follow up of 48 SLE patients with autologous stem cell transplantation were studied. All patients were followed up for 10 years. Among the patients, 24 cases were treated with purified CD34+ cells transplantation and 24 cases were treated with non-CD34+ cell transplantation. Comparison between groups was performed by x2 test. Results Among 5 dead patients, 4 died of transplantation related complications including 3 cases treated with CD34+ transplantion. The survival rate of those patients with more than 10 years duration of lupus was 90%(43/48). Among 43 patients, 7 had disease flare, 6 were treated with non-CD34+ cell transplantation. Eight patients went to college, 26 returned to normal life and 4 of them had children. Conclusion The long-term effect of SLE treated with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) is good. The recurrence of CD34+ transplant patients is lower than those treated with non-CD34+ transplantation. The quality of life in SLE patients treated with transplantation is better than those treated with conventional therapy.

Objective To observe the effect of combination of dexmedetomidine and sufentanil on postoperative analgesia for the highly nicotine dependent patients undergoing esophagectomy. Methods Ninety highly nicotine dependent patients undergoing esophagectomy were randomly allocated into three groups (n = 30 each): low-dose sufentanil group (Group S1), high-dose sufentanil (Group S2), dexmedetomidine and sufentanil group (Group DS). All patients of three groups received postoperative PCIA with following setting: 2 mL/h;bolus: 2 mL; lock time: 5 min; 4 hours limited: 40 mL. The scores of VAS and Ramsay, effective presses/total presses of PCIA, the consumption of sufentanil during 72 h after operation, side effects and the satisfaction degree of patients were recorded. Results Compared with those of group S2, the scores of VAS (both at rest and movement) decreased significantly in group DS from 1 h to 8 h (P<0.05). Compared with those of group S1, the scores of VAS (both at rest and movement) decreased significantly in group S2 and DS from 1 h to 72 h (P<0.05). Compared with that in group S1 and S2, the consumption of sufentanil during 72 h after operation decreased significantly in group DS (P < 0.05). Compared with those in group DS, The numbers of nausea and vomiting were significant decreased in group S1 and S2(P < 0.05). Compared with those in group S1, the remedial cases were significantly decreased in group S2 and group DS (P < 0.05). Conclusion The effect of combination of dexmedetomidine and sufentanil is superior to that of sufentanil in terms of postoperative analgesia in highly nicotine dependent male patients undergoing esophagectomy.

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of resveratrol on plasma glucose and the oxidative stress ability in gestational diabetic rats. A total of 100 SD rats with gestation for 5 days were intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin (STZ, 35 mg?kg-1) to prepare gestational diabetic rat model. Rats were randomly divided into 6 groups, which were the normal gestation group, gestational diabetic model group, resveratrol (30, 60, 120 and 240 mg?kg-1) treatment groups, with 20 rats in each group. A total of 20 rats with gestation for 5 days were selected as the normal gestation control group and another 20 rats with no gestation were selected as the normal control group. The levels of plasma glucose and insulin were determined on 0, 7, 14 days after experiment. Two weeks later, the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and catalase (CAT) in serum were determined. The results showed that compared with the normal control group, there were no significant difference on the levels of plasma glucose and insulin, the content of MDA, and the activities of SOD, GSH-Px and CAT of the normal gestation control group (P > 0.05). Compared with the gestational diabetic model group, the content of MDA in serum of the resveratrol (30, 60, 120 and 240 mg?kg-1) treatment groups were significantly decreased (P < 0.05,P < 0.01); the level of plasma glucose were significantly decreased and the level of insulin was significantly increased of the resveratrol (120 and 240 mg?kg-1) treatment groups (P < 0.05,P < 0.01); the activities of SOD, GSH-Px and CAT were also significantly increased (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). It was concluded that resveratrol had dose-dependent effect on reducing plasma glucose and improving antioxidant ability in gestational diabetic rats, which perhaps related to its effects on raising the level of insulin and improving the activity of antioxidant enzymes.

Objective This study seeks to use a meta-analytical approach to quantitatively assess the results of applying the problem-based learning(PBL) teaching model and the traditional lecture-based learning(LBL)teaching model to basic medical courses in undergraduate medical edu-cation. Methods The CNKI and VIP databases were electronically searched to retrieve randomised controlled trial studies that examined the use of PBL methods for basic medical courses in under-graduate medical education. In these studies PBL teaching model was used in experiment group and LBL teaching model was used in control group. Pass rate or test scores was used to evaluate the effect of learning. The retrieved documents ranged from the time that each database was first constructed to December 2012. After two researchers performed literature screening independently, data extraction, and quality assessment procedures in strict accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study, the Stata 11.0 software package was utilized to conduct the meta-analysis. Results This meta-analysis examined 28 studies that included a total of 3703 subjects. The modified Jadad scores of 20 studies(71.4%) were less than 4, and those of 8 studies(28.6%) were more than or equal to 4. The meta-analysis revealed that compared with the traditional teaching model, the PBL teaching model did not produce improved examination passing rates for a course [relative risk(RR):1.05, 95%confidence interval(CI):(0.99, 1.10), P=0.098] but could improve examination scores for a course [standardized mean difference (SMD): 0.73, 95% CI: (0.51, 0.96), P<0.001]. Conclusion For basic medical courses in undergraduate medical education, compared to LBL teaching, PBL teaching can improve students' test scores but cannot improve students' pass rate. PBL used in basic medical courses has di-versified forms and lacks unified criterion, so there is still a long way to go for the appli-cation of PBL.
