Objective To study the regulatory effect of paclitaxel injection on vascular endothelial related factors in serum of uterine cancer patients.Methods 30 cases of uterine cancer patients treated with paclitaxel (observation group)and 30 cases of uterine cancer patients treated with surgery (control group)were selected.Chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA)was used to detect expressions of serum tumor necrosis factor(TNF), Interleukin-8(IL-8)and tumor specific growth factor (TSGF).Results Before treatment,there was no significant difference between the serum TNF, IL-8 and TSGF in observation group and control group(P<0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the serum TNF,IL-8 and TSGFwere significantly lower than before treatment ,which was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Paclitaxel can decrease serum TNF,IL-8 and TSGF in patients with uterine cancer,which provides a new theoretical basis for its anticancer effects.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy and mechanism of auricular point sticking plus Western medicine for moderate gastric cancer pain. Methods: A total of 80 patients were selected and divided into an observation group and a control group according to the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received Western medicine treatment, while patients in the observation group received additional auricular point sticking. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Numeric rating scale (NRS) and Karnofsky performance status (KPS) were adopted before and after treatment. The total time and times of flare-up pain in 24 h were recorded. The cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were detected. The clinical efficacy of both groups was evaluated after treatment. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05); after treatment, NRS scores of both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (both P<0.05), and the score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05); KPS scores of both groups were significantly higher than those before treatment (both P<0.05), and the score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the total time and flare-up times of pain during 24 h of both groups were significantly reduced (all P<0.05), and those of the observation group were significantly less than those of the control group (both P<0.05). After treatment, the COX-2 and TNF-α levels of both groups were significantly reduced (all P<0.05), and were lower in the observation group than in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The clinical efficacy of auricular point sticking plus Western medicine for moderate gastric cancer pain is valid. This combined treatment can alleviate cancer pain and improve patients' quality of life, which may be related to its ability to reduce COX-2 and TNF-α levels.

Objective To study the relationship of left-ventricular function change with circulation levels of CD34+ cells,toll like receptor 2 (TLR2),TLR4 and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)in elderly isolated systolic hypertension.Methods According to New York Heart Association (NYHA)class,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and systolic blood pressure (SBP),the healthy subjects and the patients were divided into 5 groups:control 30 cases,class Ⅰ 25 cases,class Ⅱ 29 cases,class Ⅲ 24 cases and class Ⅳ 20 cases.The expressions of circulating CD34 + cells,TLR2 and TLR4 in the patients and healthy subjects were measured by flow cytometry.The level of hs CRP was measured by nephelometry immunoassay.Results In class Ⅳ versus class Ⅰ,the levels of LVEF[(26.4±2.1)％vs.(40.5±3.6)％]and CD346 [(0.5±0.2) × 109 vs.(2.5±0.4) ×109 /L]were decreased,while SBP[(211.1±8.4)mm Hg vs.(151.1±5.9)mm Hg],TLR2 [(8.0±1.0) vs.(3.2±1.1)MFI],TLR4 [(6.4±1.3)MFT vs.(2.4±1.1)MFI]and hs-CRP [(14.7±0.3)mg/L vs.(4.9±0.6)mg/L]were increased (all P＜0.05).Conclusions The lower levels of CD34+ cells,higher TLR2,TLR4 and hs CRP levels are correlated with increasing SBP,decreasing LVEF and higher NYHA class.

The aim of this study is to clarify whether edaravone postconditioning had protective effect against renal ischemia/reperfusion injury and to compare the protective effect between ischemic postconditioning and edaravone postconditioning. Rats were subjected to 45 min ischemia followed by 24 h reperfusion. The rats were randomly assigned to seven groups: a sham-operated control group, an ischemia/reperfusion group, an ischemic postconditioning group, a normal saline vehicle postconditioning group and an edaravone postconditioning (1, 3, and 6 mg x kg(-1)) group. Renal function was assessed by serum creatinine and BUN concentration, while histological damage of renal tissue was assessed with HE staining. MDA content and SOD activity of renal tissue were determined. TUNEL staining was performed to analyze the apoptosis of the tubular epithelial cells, the protein level of Bcl-2 and Bax in renal tissue was examined by Western blotting. Compared to the ischemia/reperfusion group, edaravone postconditioning significantly decreased serum creatinine and BUN concentration, and ameliorated histological damage of renal tissue. MDA was less after 24 h reperfusion in the edaravone postconditioning group than that in the ischemia/reperfusion group, consistent with an increase in SOD activity. In addition, edaravone postconditioning decreased TUNEL-positive cells and Bax expression, and increased Bcl-2 expression. Results detected in the edaravone postconditioning group showed no significant difference from the ischemic postconditioning group. Edaravone administered during the last 3 min of ischemia, prior to reperfusion induces a pharmacological postconditioning in vivo against renal ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats. This protection is similar to that observed with ischemic postconditioning.

Objective Through application of clinical pathway in hospitalization patients undergoing uterectomy, we aimed to study the efficacy of clinical pathway in uterectomy patients. Methods 120 patients randomly sampled into the experimental group and the control group with 60 in each. The experimental group received diagnosis, treatment, nursing and rehabilitation according to the clinical pathway table, patients in the control group received routine nursing interventions. The average hospitalization days, medical costs, patient satisfaction degree, disease cognition, first exercise time after operation and medical disputes were compared between the two groups. Results The average hospitalization days and hospitalization costs of the experimental group were obviously lower than those in the control group, patients' satisfaction degree, knowledge of health and first functional exercise time in the experimental group were better than those of the control group, while the medical disputes in the experimental group were obviously de -creased in the experimental group. Conclusions Application of clinical pathway in nursing care for uterectomy patients can effectively decrease hospitalization days, medical costs and disputes. It is also helpful for patients to cooperate with doctors in diagnosis, treatment, nursing, thus increase the satisfaction degree of patients, ensure the reasonable use of medical resources and promote the sustainable improvement of nursing quality.

Objective To summarize 380 cases of the laser hair removal experience. Methods Using 800nm's wavelength of wide 30ms diode laser hair removal machine, different energy of selection and the time interval were different according to the different positions such as: the lowest energy 19J/cm 2 of hairline was selected and treated once at the interval of 3 - 4W with increasing 1-2J/cm 2 every time, as a result of 3 -5 times had been taken for cure. For legs, the lowest dose was 36 J/cm 2 . The highest energy achieved at 25J / cm 2 with interval 7 weeks, and it needed to increase 2-3J/cm 2 every times, and a total of 3 to 5 times were used for the treatment. After treatment each time, no special care was needed. Results The pati ents were followed up for more than half a year to 1 year. Cure rate was 95 %. Thereinto 20 persons appeared several spots of pigmentations after treatment, and those disappeared within 2 to 4 months. Only 2 persons with dark color of the skin still had slight pigmentation after 1 year. Conclusion Hairs treated many times by laser show regeneration delay and become thin in quality in the newborn hairs with lighting in color. The different energy is chosen for the treatment according to the different hair position that finally achieves permanent hair removal.

Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are widely used industrial chemicals. Several BFRs were found to be at detectable level in the wildlife as well as in human, however, up to now there were few related papers which could be found for the adverse effects of BFRs on the wildlife, especially, on human. The recent research works on the biological effects of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) or derivates, hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) and polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) are reviewed in the present paper.

Objective To investigate the significance of serum IP-10 levels in different types of diabetic patients. Methods Serum IP-10 level in 78 cases with type 1 diabetes,49 cases with type 2 diabetes and 33 cases of healthy controls was measured with ELISA assays. Type 1 diabetic patients were divided into classic type 1 diabetes (n=39) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA,n=39) according to their disease process,and they were also divided into autoimmune type 1 diabetes (n=58) and idiopathic type 1 diabetes (n=20).Type 2 diabetic patients,according to carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),were divided into patients with (n=24) or without atherosclerosis (n=25). Results 1) Serum IP-10 levels were not statistically different among type 1 diabetes,type 2 diabetes and healthy controls. 2) Serum IP-10 concentrations in autoimmune type 1 diabetes with positive islet autoantibody were higher than those in healthy controls(184.96?104.48pg/ml vs 146.10?74.61pg/ml,P=0.03);while there were no difference in type 1 diabetes with variable disease durations. 3) No difference in IP-10 levels was found between type 2 patients with(173.5?69.6pg/ml) and without atherosclerosis (188.5?79.7 pg/ml). Conclusions Serum IP-10 level is augmented in autoimmune type 1 diabetes.
