Objective To investigate the clinical significance of changes of serum amylase, CRP and SAA in the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. Methods The levels of serum and urine amylase, CRP and SAA in patients of mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and the seventh day after the onset of pancreatitis were measured. Results The levels of serum, urine amylase, CRP and SAA in SAP patients at 24h were (904.5±402.2)U/L, (2280.3±1207.3)U/L, (155.6±36.2) mg/L, (521.9±109.4)mg/L, respectively, and significantly higher than those of MAP patients (P<0.05 or P<0.001). The peak value of serum amylase appeared at 24h, however, the peak value of urine amylase, CRP and SAA appeared at 48 h, and the corresponding values were (2173.5±1110.6) U/L, (185.3±41.4) mg/L and (717.5±144.2)mg/L, respectively. The levels of serum and urine amylase significantly decreases in MAP and SAP patients at the seventh day (P<0.05). The levels of serum CRP and SAA significantly decreased in MAP patients at the seventh day (P<0.05), however, the levels of serum CRP and SAA did not significantly decrease in SAP patients at the seventh day (P>0.05). Serum levels of CRP and SAA were related to the severity of acute pancreatitis. Meanwhile CRP showed a positive correlation with SAA (r = 0.761, P<0.05). Conclusions The change of serum levels of amylase, CRP and SAA can help early diagnose acute pancreatitis; CRP and SAA may predict the development of SAP at early stage.

Objective; To study estrogen receptor gene Xbal and Pvu Ⅱ polymorphisms in patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP). Methods; Xbal and Pvu Ⅱ DNA was extracted by Chelex-100 and amplified by PCR from buccal swabs of 48 cases of AgP patients and 60 normal controls. The PCR products were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction linked fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. Results: There were significant differences of the distribution of Xba I genotype between AgP group and control group, female AgP group and female control group, male AgP group and male control group(P<0.05). There was no difference of Pvu D genotype distribution between patient group and control group (P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic Regression Analysis showed that male group was less susceptible to AgP than female group(OR =0. 352), the older was less susceptible to AgP than the younger(OR =0.950), and the xxXx genotype was less susceptible to AgP than XX genotype [OR(Xx) =0.224, OR(xx) = 0.678). Conclusion: Specific relationship is found between the susceptibility of AgP and the ER gene-Xbal polymorphism. People with XX genotype is more susceptive to AgP than xx, Xx genotypes.

Objective To compare and evaluate the clinical efficacy and side effect of vinorelbine plus gemcitabine and vinorelbine plus cisplatin combinations in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods 56 cases with non-treated advanced NSCLC were unrandomly divided into two groups: the GN group (27patients) treated with vinorelbine plus gemcitabine, the NP group (29 patients) treated with vinorelbine plus cisplatin,1/3 weeks×2~6 cycles. Results For the GN group, the overall response rate was 37.7 %, MTTP was 5.1months,one year survival rate (1-ySR) was 40.7 %. There were no significant difference in the response rates and the survival rates for the GN group compared with the NP group (P >0.05); But on the side effect of toxicities, WHO grade anemia and nausea/vomiting and tiredness of the GN group was significantly milder than the NP group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Vinorelbine combined Gemcitabine regimen (GN) is active and well-tolerated. It is worth to investigate GN recommended as the first line chemotherapeutic regimen for the treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC.
