OBJECTIVE: To study the bacteriostatic action of Yiqing capsule against propionibacterium acnes and staphylococcus epidermidis in vitro.METHODS: Propionibacterium acnes and staphylococcus epidermidis were cultured by microplating method and routine plating,and the bacteriostatic action of different concentration of Yiqing capsule and its main components against propionibacterium acnes and staphylococcus epidermidis were determined by measuring their MICs.RESULTS: The MICs of Yiqing capsule and Scutellaria baicalensis extractum against propionibacterium acnes and staphylococcus epidermidis were 0.98 mg?mL-1 and 1 mg?mL-1,respectively,whereas the MICs of Radix et Rhizoma Rhei and Rhizoma Coptidis Scutellaria extractum against propionibacterium acnes and staphylococcus epidermidis were 1.96 mg?mL-1 and 1 mg?mL-1,respectively.CONCLUSION: Yiqing capsule showed satisfactory bacteriostatic action against the major pathogenic bacteria of acne.

Objective:To investigate Bcl-2 and Bax gene expression in acute myelogenous Leukemia and the relationship between Bcl-2/Bax ratio and drug resistance.Method:Expression of Bcl-2、Bax was detected by immunohistochemical method while drug resistance of AML was detected by cell culture and MTT assay.Results:A high expression of Bcl-2 and a low expression of Bax were detected in AML,respectively,and the ratio between Bcl-2 and Bax was significantly higher than that in normal control (P<0.01). The ratio in those who are resistant to chemotherapy was significantly higher than that in those sensitive to chemotherapy (P<0.05).The responsiveness to chemotherapy of those with a high ratio was poorer than thos with a low ratio (P<0.05).Conclusion:The alteration of Bcl-2 and Bax played certain role in the development of drug resistance in AML,the test of Bcl-2/Bax ratio may have great significance in choice of chemotherapeutic agents and also provide important information for outcome prediction.
6.Nursing of skin flaps after 72 hours' transplantation of femoral skin flap for repairing soft tissue defect in lower extremity
Modern Clinical Nursing 2014;(5):17-20
Objective To summarize the strategies for nursing of skin flaps after 72 hours' transplantation of femoral skin flap for repairing soft tissue defect in lower extremity.Method One hundred and sixty trauma patients with lower extremity soft tissue defect underwent transplantation of femoral skin flap for repairing.The skin flaps were nursed within 72h after transplantation.Results The skins flaps in 160 patients receiving to repair tissue defect of lower limbs all survived.Within 72 hours after operation, 12 patients suffered from vascular crisis, which were cured after pertinent treatment.Conclusions For the patients receiving to repair tissue defect, the skin flaps should be carefully nursed. Meanwhile, preoperative psychological nursing, postoperative pain nursing and health education are critical for the survival of skin flaps.

Purpose To explore the value of ultrasound contrast time-intensity curves in hepatic tumor qualitative diagnosis and evaluation of tumor ablation effect. Materials and Methods Forty-two patients who were clinically diagnosed as hepatic cancer or cirrhosis underwent contrast enhanced ultrasound for the tumor lesions within the liver, dynamic analysis of the lesions were executed with software SonoLiver CAP, the nature of the tumors were determined and the results were compared with those of the enhanced MRI. Ultrasound guided biopsy was followed with radiofrequency ablation treatment, two-dimensional and contrast enhanced ultrasound were executed two weeks after the ablation, and the results were compared with enhanced MRI findings during corresponding period. Results 52 tumor nodules were found with two-dimensional and color Doppler ultrasound, 65 (33 hyperplastic nodules, 32 malignant lesions) with CEUS, 65 (21 hyperplastic nodules, 44 malignant lesions) with ultrasound contrast time-intensity curves, and 61 (20 hyperplastic nodules, 41malignant lesions) with contrast enhanced MRI; pathological examination revealed that 26 of the lesions were benign and 39 were malignant;there was statistically significant difference (χ2=4.561, P<0.05) between the results of ultrasound contrast time-intensity curves and simple contrast enhanced ultrasound for the assessment of the nature of tumor;no statistically significant difference (χ2=0.003, P>0.05) was found between ultrasound contrast time-intensity curves and enhanced MRI for the assessment of the nature of tumor;there was statistically significant difference (χ2=5.298, P<0.05) between ultrasound contrast time-intensity curves and simple contrast enhanced ultrasound for the assessment of whether the tumor was malignant or benign, when taking biopsy results as the reference standard. Conclusion With ultrasound contrast time-intensity curves, dynamical, intuitive, and quantitative evaluation can be obtained for the perfusion differences between the lesion and the surrounding liver parenchyma, which provides more accurate information for qualitative diagnosis of hepatic tumors thus contains great application value in the evaluation of the effects of radiofrequency ablation for hepatic tumors.
8.Analysis of human papillomavirus infection in non-small cell lung cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2016;43(10):737-740
Objective To detect the infection of human papillomavirus (HPV)in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)and explore the relationship between HPV infection and clinicopathological features.Methods HPV detection and genotyping in 156 cases of NSCLC were performed using a new liquid chip based on Luminex.Patient clinical characteristics were also recorded,and the relationship between HPV infection and clinicopathological features was studied.Results Of the 156 tumor-DNA samples tested,40 (25.6%)cases showed presence of HPV-DNA,of which 37 cases were of a high-risk HPV type (16,18,33, 58).The differences were statistically significant between the HPV-positive and HPV-negative groups in gender (χ2 =4.387,P =0.036),smoking (χ2 =8.130,P =0.004),histologic type (χ2 =4.075,P =0.044)and lymph node metastasis (χ2 =7.082,P =0.008).The differences were not statistically significant between the HPV-positive and HPV-negative groups in age (χ2 =0.013,P =0.910),differentiated degree (χ2 =1.727, P =0.189),clinical stages (χ2 =0.179,P =0.672),distant metastasis (χ2 =3.012,P =0.083).Logistic regression analysis revealed that lymph node metastasis alone was an independent predictive factor of HPV infection in NSCLC (OR =0.384,95%CI:0.153-0.967,P =0.042),and gender (OR =1.402,95%CI:0.522-3.769,P =0.503),smoking (OR =0.506,95%CI:0.194-1.322,P =0.506),histologic type (OR =0.393,95%CI:0.133-0.161,P =0.091)were not independent predictive factors of HPV infection. Conclusion The infection of HPV presents in part of Chinese NSCLC patients,and HPV infection may be connected with occurrence and development of lung cancer.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of psychological care and community revisit on preven-tion of postpartum depression. Methods300 cases of pregnant women were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group with 150 cases in each group. The intervention group took psycho-logical care and community revisit, the control group received conventional care. The incidence of missing follow- up and depression in the two groups were compared using χ2 test. ResultsThe incidence of miss-ing follow-up and depression in the intervention group was significantly lower than those of the control group. ConclusionsPsychological care and community revisit can significantly reduce the occurrence of postpartum depression.
