Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2014;29(15):1190-1192
Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor in infants and children,which is very easy to metastasis and its malignant degree is very high.Because of its clinical differences,so far treatment of neuroblastoma is still difficult.Currently comprehensive therapies,including surgery,chemotherapy,radiation,stem cell transplantation,131 I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine therapy,biological therapy and immune therapy as well as target therapy dominant the treatment of this disease,and introduce the some of the treatment protocols for this disease.

Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2006;0(03):-
Objective To investigate the effects of puerarin on renal advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), expression of transforming growth factor-?1 (TGF-?1) and pathomorphism in diabetic rats. Methods Rats were randomly divided into following groups:normal control rats (Group CN), diabetic rats (Group DM) and diabetic rats treated with puerarin (Group DP). After Puerarin was given to STZ-induced diabetic rats for 10 weeks, blood glucose, urine protein, glomerular basement membrance thickness (GBMT) and profile of kidney hypertrophy in diabetic rats were measured and analysed. The renal pathologic changes were observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy. Renal AGEs content was determined by expose time of fluorescence microscopy. The expression of TGF-?1 was examined by immunohistochemical methods. Results Urine protein, GBMT and profile of kidney hypertrophy were significantly increased in diabetic rats as compared with control animals (P

Objective To investigate the effect of nerve growth factor (NGF) and ciliary neurotrofic factor (CNTF) on the regeneration and functional recovery of sciatic nerves following sciatic nerve injuries (SNI). Methods The left sciatic nerves for 6 mm in 120 Wistar ratswere removed and divided randomly into 4 groups. Target muscular injection of NGF at concentration of 100 ng/kg and CNTF at 100 ng/kg was given to Group NGF+CNTF; CNTF at 100 ng/kg to Group CNTF; NGF at 100 ng/kg to Group NGF and equal quantity of normal saline to Group NS. Sciatic nerve functional index (SFI) measurement, morphometric analysis, S-100? and NF200 immunohistochemistry were performed for all the animals after operation. Results SFI, diameter and number of myelinated axons, and axonal quantity of S-100? and NF200 were significantly higher in Group NGF+CNTF than that in other groups. Conclusions Combined application of NGF and CNTF can enhance regeneration and functional recovery of sciatic nerves posterior to SNI.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of natural emulsifier acacia senegal on in vivo and in vitro performance of chloro-genic acid self-microemulsion. METHODS:Chlorogenic acid self-microemulsion containing acacia senegal(new chlorogenic acid self-microemulsion)was prepared by using acacia senegal to gradually replace polysorbate 80 in chlorogenic acid self-microemul-sion containing nonionic emulsifier (traditional chlorogenic acid self-microemulsion). The appearance,morphology,particle size,conductivity,pH value,stability,in vitro release and intestinal absorption kinetics of the 2 kinds self-microemulsions were evaluated. RESULTS:50%of polysorbate 80 was replaced by acacia senegal in new chlorogenic acid self-microemulsion. The tradi-tional and new chlorogenic acid self-microemulsions had clear appearance,and approximately spherical drops. Particle sizes were (24.53 ± 3.03),(35.51 ± 5.91) nm;dectrical conductivities were (195.6 ± 0.3),(189.5 ± 0.4)μs/cm;and pH were 3.87 ± 0.02, 4.08 ± 0.03 (n=3),respectively. Compared with traditional chlorogenic acid self-microemulsion,the absorption rate constant,ef-fective permeability coefficient and absorption amount of the new one in duodenum,jejunum,ileum were increased a little (P>0.05);the above indexes in colon were obviously decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The new chlorogenic acid self-micro-emulsion can maintain the performance of traditional one,and increase absorption of chlorogenic acid in small intestine.

Objective To investigate the effects of nursing intervention on the rehabilitation of patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).Methods 64 BPPV patients were randomly divided into control group and observation group, with 32 cases in each group.The control group received otorhinolaryngology routine nursing, while the observation group was managed with continuously systemic nursing interventions, including manipulative re-duction, psychological nursing intervention, health education, head nursing, follow -up and family nursing interven-tion.The Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) were applied to evaluate the intervention effects.Results Cure rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group, and recurrence rate of the observation group was obviously lower than that of the control group(p <0.05).The anxiety and depression assessment of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group, with statistical difference (p <0.05).Conclusion Systemic nursing intervention can effectively improve the rehabilita-tion of patients with BPPV, and reduce recurrence rate.

Objective To study the mechanism of the resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii to common antibiotics.Methods Bacterial susceptibility test to ?-lactamatic antibiotics,quinolones,aminogiycosids were done by the Kirby-Bauer method and agar dilution method for 35 isolates.Penicillin-beta-lactamase,AmpCs,Metallo-beta-lactamase,ESBLs were detected by iodine-starch test,3-dimension test,microbiology sensitivity synergic test,disc agar diffusion method respectively.Outer membrane protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE.Accumulation of ciprofloxacin was determined by direct Fluorescence method.The gene of Tem-1,aac-4 and gyrA were amplified by PCR while the gyrA was sequenced.Results 28 isolates were multi-resistant to common antibiotics in 35 isolates.16 isolates produced Penicillinase,10 isolates produced Cephalosporinase,2 isolates produced metal-beta-lactamase,3 isolates produced ESBLs.The analysis of outer membrane proteins showed that a protein of 29kD disappeared and 26kD protein enhanced in resistant isolates.The accumulation of ciprofloxacin in resistant isolates decreased.After treatment with NaN_3,the drug uptake increased to the normal level.Most of [QX(Y8]Tem-1 gene were positive except 2 drug resistant and 3 sensitive isolates.All of [QX(Y8]aac-4 were negative while gyrA were positive.DNA sequencing analysis revealed there had point mutation in the gyrA gene.Conclusion Beta-lactamase,active drug efflux,outer membrane protein permeability decreasement and gene mutation were the factors contributing to the antibiotics resistance of Abaumannii.
