Objective To investigate the expression of secretagogin(SCGN) and chromogranin A(CgA) in pancreatic neuroen‐docrine tumors (PNETs) .Methods Totally 54 cases of PNETs hospitalized in our hospital from October 2007 to October 2013 were enrolled in our study .Immunohistochemical detection was used to determine secretagogin and CgA .Results Secretagogin and CgA were highly expressed in all PNETs specimens .Compared with CgA ,secretagogin were highly expressed in the non‐functional PNETs ,tumor volume>30 cm3 ,the enveloped ,vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis (P<0 .05) .There were no statistically significant difference between SCGN and CgA in functional PNETs tumor volume ≤30 cm3 ,no enveloped ,no vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis(P>0 .05) .Conclusion The expression of secretagogin and CgA in tumor combined with PNETs pathologi‐cal characteristics can predict the severity of PNETs .

Objective To explore the relationship of the levels of adhesion molecules and cytokines with vascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).Methods Ninety-six T2DM patients were selected as case group and divided into non-vascular group (28 cases),micro-vascular group (33 cases) and major vascular group(35 cases) according to vascular disease.Meanwhile,30 healthy persons were selected as control group.Serum levels of serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1),vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1),interleukin-6 (IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and yon willebrand factor (vWF) were determined by Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA),and the expression of adhesion molecule and cytokines of patients with T2MD at 2 weeks after treatment.Results Compared with control group,the levels of ICAM-1,VCAM-1,TNF-α and IL-6 in all subgroup of T2DM patients were significantly elevated(P ＜ 0.05),and the levels showed an increasing trend with function deterioration (P ＜ 0.05).The levels of ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6 and TNF-α in case group before treatment were (505.34 ± 56.42) μg/L,(570.85 ±59.54) μg/L,(94.51 ± 18.04) ng/L,(70.57 ± 18.34) ng/L respectively,significant different from those of after treatment ((390.53 ±45.23) μg/L,(482.93 ± 69.85) μg/L,(77.31 ± 15.49) ng/L,(50.45 ± 12.66) ng/L; t =16.281,8.712,7.697,8.445; P ＜ 0.05).There were significant positive correlation between ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6,TNF-α and vWF in the case group(r =0.482,0.453,0.576,0.534 respectively,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Adhesion molecules and cytokines are take part in the process of the deterioration of T2DM and the occurrence of vascular disease.

Objective: To compare the efficacy of two commercially available dentifrices (colgate total toothpaste containing triclosan and copolymer was used as the experimental and a toothpaste containing triclosan without copolymer the control) in the control of dental plaque and gingivitis. Methods: A double blind clinical study was conducted in 200 adult male and female subjects from Chengdu, China were entered into the study and stratified into two treatment groups which were balanced for age, sex, baseline of Quigley Hein plaque index scores(PI) and baseline of Loe Silness gingival index scores(GI). Subjects received an oral prophylaxis and were instructed to brush their teeth for one minute twice daily with their assigned dentifrice. Three and six months after application of the dentifrices plaque and gingivitis examinations were conducted. Results: At the end of the study, 183 subjects complied with the protocol and completed the entire six month study. Before use of the dentifrices GI in experimental and control groups was 1.63?0.36 and 1.68?0.34, it was 0.45?0.30 and 0.52?0.33 in 3 months, and 0.43?0.32 and 0.58?0.38 in 6 months( P

Objective To investigate the in-hospital death-related factors for acute encephalocele in patients with craniocerebral injury for craniotomy in order to provide evidence for clinical treatment and prognosis determina-tion.Methods The clinical data of 105 patients with craniocerebral injury occurring acute encephalocele during cra-niotomy were analyzed retrospectively.The correlations of the factors including sex,age,preoperative Glasgow coma scale(GCS)scores,preoperative intracranial pressure(ICP),postoperative pupil status,causes of encephalocel,post-operative GCS scores,postoperative ICP,coagulation mechanism,brain swelling,preoperative hypoxia,preoperative blood pressure and blood glucose were analyzed.Results The prognosis was assessed according to the Glasgow out-come scale(GOS)scores after procedure.There were 77 patients in death group(namely death cases)and 28 patients in survival group.Logistic regression analysis showed that postoperative GCS scores (Wald =14.127,Exp(B)=0.044,95%CI:0.032,0.448),causes of encephalocel(Wald =7.748,Exp(B)=8.183,95%CI:1.825,10.251), postoperative ICP(Wald =7.637,Exp(B)=7.637,95% CI:1.969,8.028),postoperative pupil status(Wald =4.001,Exp(B)=2.499,95%CI:1.019,5.122)and blood glucose(Wald =7.915,Exp(B)=8.891,95% CI:1.790,9.337)were closely associated with the in-hospital death in patients with acute encephalocele in craniocere-bral injury operation(P <0.05).Conclusion The postoperative GCS scores,causes of encephalocel,postoperative ICP,postoperative pupil status and blood glucose could be used as the important indexes for predicting in-hospital death of acute encephalocele in craniocerebral injury for craniotomy.To prevent the intraoperative encephalocele and reduce the intracranial pressure are the important measures to reduce the mortality rate of the patients with acute encephalocele.

Epilepsy is a common nervous system seizure disease in children,20%-30% of them is intractable epilepsy.The pathogenesis of intractable epilepsy in children is not yet identify.Some research think that this may be associated with resistance of a variety of diffe-rent mechanisms of antiepileptic drug and abnormalities of multidrug resistance gene expression.The most investigation of multidrug transpor-ter is P-glycoprotein,multidrug resistance-associated protein.They are present in cell membrane and belong to adenosine triphosphate-dependent membrane transport protein.Studies have showed that over-expression of multidrug transporter in temporal lobe brain tissue of patients with refractory epilepsy and animal model of chronic epilepsy reduce the concentration of therapeutic drug in cells.They result in resis-tance by releasing the energy and transferring large amounts of anti-epileptic drugs to exterior of brain capillary endothelial cells in way of active transport.The relationship between multidrug transporter′s structure,distribution,functions and drug-resistant epilepsy are reviewed.
