In order to study the variation of complex impedance and characteristic parameters on human normal and tumor lung tissue during the extracorporeal time, we established a real part-imaginary part chart of complex impedance on lung tissue which provided the basic theory and the reference data for research on elementary medicine and clinical diagnosis of lung cancer and meanwhile provided prior information for electrical impedance tomography (EIT) research. In the experiment carried out in our laboratory, when operation was finished, we kept the lung cancer tissue and normal tissue neatly separated into the cylindrical testing cavities and kept the temperature and humidity at expected values. Then the measurements of complex impedance property are performed at frequency from 1 000 Hz to 30 MHz using 4294A impedance analyzer of Aglient Company. With time changing, the results showed that there was a significant change occurring on the complex impedance of human normal and tumor lung tissue. However, the impedance of normal lung tissue is greater than that of tumor lung tissue. We consider that this change should be related to the change in extracellular fluid, intracellular fluid and cell membrane.

Epidemiological studies indicated that dietary tiber was inversely associated with stroke risk.Epidemiological studies have confirmed that increased dietary fiber intake can reduce the risk of stroke.Animal experiments and clinical studies have shown that dietary fiber intake may reduce the incidence of stroke by reducing vascular risk factors,such as hypertension,diabetes,dyslipidemia,and obesity.The direct mechanism of increased dietary fiber intake reducing stroke risk remains to be further studied.Clinicians should pay attention to the important role of dietary fiber,guide the patients with stroke and individuals at risk of stroke to increase consumption of fiber-rich fruits and vegetables.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational application of tigecyclinet and alert to the occurrence of severe ADR.METHODS:Fifity patients receiving tigecycline in a level 3 general hospital during 2013-2015 were analyzed retrospectively to observe the change of symptom,sign and lab indexes after using Tigecyclinet injfection.Possible ADR of tigecycline,processing and outcomes were summarized.RESULTS:Among 50 patients,there were 24 cases of ADR,including 10 cases of inducing or aggravating blood coagulation abnormality (41.67％),9 cases of liver function injury (37.50％),4 cases of vomiting and other gastrointestinal discomfort (16.67％),1 case of red erythra with itching (4.17％).ADR of digestive system were mild and recovered after symptomatic treatment as inhibiting acid,antiemetic.Severe ADR as Liver function injury could not be recovered after symptomatic treatment as protecting liver,reducing enzyme.Nine cases of liver function injury mainly manifested as the elevation of TBIL,DBIL,ALP,LDH;8 of which suffered from liver function injury before medication and the symptom was aggravated after medication;liver function injury appeared in 3 cases on 10th day after medication and in 2 cases on 9th day after medication.Ten cases suffered from coagulation function disorder before medication and the symptom was aggravated after medication,which mainly manifested as the prolongation of APTT and TT and the elevation of INR,PT,D-dimer,etc.The coagulation function disorder was aggravated abnormally on 2nd-22th day after using tigecycline,mainly appearing on 2nd-5th day (70.00％).CONCLUSIONS:Great importance should be attached to severe ADR as coagulation function disorder,liver function injury when using tigecycline,in order to ensure the safety of drug use.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of antibiotics in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) pa-tients. METHODS:Medical records of 342 CAP inpatients in our hospital during Jan.-Dec. in 2014 were analyzed retrospectively by DDDs and SPSS 19.0 statistical software. According to the age,the patients were divided into youth group,the young group, middle age group and elderly group,and clinical information and the use of antibiotics were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:Mi-crobiological examination of 320 of 342 CAP inpatients were performed with detection rate of 93.57%;sputum culture,blood cul-ture and PCT were conducted in 67 case to find out pathogenic bacteria with negative rate of 20.18%. 338 patients had used antibi-otics (98.83%),and other 4 patients refused anti-infective treatment. Selected empirical antibiotics of our hospital were mainlyβ-lactam (50.07%),quinolones (35.70%) and macrolides (9.80%). CAP inpatients were mainly given two-drug therapy,of which cephalosporin combined with quinolone were most common,including 178 cases in total (53.61%). During treatment,17 patients suffered from ADR,with incidence of 5.03%. CONCLUSIONS:The detection rate from patients with CAP in our hospital is high in microbiological examination,but culture results should be analyzed dialectically according to clinical signs. Empirical an-ti-infective therapy mainly include β-lactams,quinolones and macrolides antibiotics alone or in combination with,basically meet the guideline for CAP Diagnosis and Therapy Guideline.

Aim To explore the relationship between Mre11/Rad50/Nbs1 ( MRN ) complex focus formation and DNA double-strand breaks( DSBs) caused by cinob-ufagin in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells. Methods The Na+,K+-ATPaseα1 subunit expression level in liver cancer tissues was detected by immunohis-tochemistry. After HepG2 cells were treated with 5μmol·L-1 cinobufagin for 6, 12 and 24 h, the drug-in-duced DSBs were assessed by single cell gel electro-phroesis ( SCGE ) , the gene transcription and protein levels of Mrel1, Nbs1, Rad50 and p53 were evaluated by Real time-PCR and Western blot. The cell cycle in parallel was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results The Na+, K+-ATPase α1 subunit expression level in liver cancer tissues was significantly increased compared with the tissue adjacent to carcinoma ( P <0. 05 ) . The 5μmol · L-1 cinobufagin could induce the DSBs in a time-dependent manner (P <0. 05), and it could up-regulate the gene expression levels of Mre11, Nbs1, Rad50 and p53 in HepG2 cells ( P<0. 05 ) . The pro-portions of HepG2 cells in S phase were ( 21. 32 ± 4. 21) % in the control group, and (33. 25 ± 5. 72) %, (56. 72 ± 6. 29) % and (67. 32 ± 9. 42) % in HepG2 cells treated with 5 μmol · L-1 cinobufagin for 6, 12 and 24 h, respectively. The proportions of cells in S phase in cinobufagin groups were significantly increased compared with the control group ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclu-sion Cinobufagin could induce the cell cycle arrest in liver cancer HepG2 cells by activation of Mre11/Rad50/Nbs1 Complex.
