ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of nape acupuncture on post-stroke dysphagia by a meta-analysis.Method Domestic literature on clinical randomized controlled trials of nape acupuncture treatment of post-stroke dysphagia published from Jun. 2004 to Jun. 2014 were obtained by a computer search ofChina National Knowledge Internet(CNKI), Wanfang Data medical information system (WF), VIP information resource system (VIP) and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM) combined with a manual search of Jinan University library journal database. Literature inclusion and exclusion criteria were established to extract data and the qualities of the included studies were assessed using a Jadad rating scale. A meta-analysis was made using the software ReviewManager 5.2.ResultA total of 17 articles were included with 1158 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the total efficacy rate [OR=3.99, 95%CI(2.83, 5.63),P<0.00001] and the cure rate[OR=2.67, 95%CI(2.03, 3.53),P<0.00001] between the nape acupuncture and control groups.ConclusionNape acupuncture has clinically a good therapeutic effect on post-stroke dysphagia. Multi-center, large-sample and high-quality studies are still needed for validation because the qualities of the included articles are lower, which is one of the factors influencing the assessment.

OBJECTIVE:
To determine an approach enriching cancer stem cells from laryngeal cancer cell line. To investigate whether laryngeal cancer stem cells in chemoradiotherapy have the characteristic of resistance.
METHOD:
CD133+ cells and CD133- cells was detected and isolated from Hep-2 cell line by fluorescence activated cell sorting technology. The cytotoxicities of cisplatin and radiation were investigated by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) assay. The apoptosis and cell cycle was analyzed with flow cytometry.
RESULT:
CD133+ cells accounted for a fraction of (2.43 +/- 0.77)% in Hep-2 cell line. CD133+ cells have a more obvious characteristics of cancer stem cells. Different cisplatin and radiation concentrations of for two cell have inhibition, in a certain concentration range and the dosage dependence. Cisplatin and radiation had synergistic inhibitory effects with CD133- cells on the growth of two cell. Moreover, cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and more apoptosis was induced by synergistic combination. Different concentrations of cetuximab for Hep-2 cells have inhibition, in a certain concentration range and time and the dosage dependence. The half maxial inhibitory concentration (IC50) of cetuximab to Hep-2 cells on 24 h was 1 036.84 microg/L. Cisplatin and radiation had synergistic inhibitory effects with cetuximab on the growth of Hep-2 cell line. Moreover, cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and more apoptosis was induced by synergistic combination.
CONCLUSION

Objective To investigate the effect of VPA and molecular hydrogen(H2)on phenotypes of microglia treated with hypoxia. Methods Mouse hypoxic BV2 microglia were treated with VPA or H2. The levels of phenotypic markers of supernatant and cells were detected by ELISA, flow cytometry and real?time PCR,respectively. Results Hypoxia significantly increased mRNA level of M1 marker(iNOS)and reduced mRNA levels of M2 markers(CD206 and TGF?β)in BV2(P<0.05). Besides,the ratio between the mRNA levels of M1 increased(P<0.05). VPA significantly reduced protein level(CD16/32)and mRNA production(iNOS)of M1 markers in hypoxia?treated BV2(P<0.05). The ratio be?tween the mRNA levels of M1 markers and M2 markers(CD16:CD206,CD32:CD206,iNOS:CD206 and iNOS:TGF?β)were also significantly decreased(P<0.05). H2 significantly reduced both protein levels(TNF?α,CD16/32 and iNOS)and mRNA production(iNOS)of M1 markers and increased secretion of M2 marker(IL?10)in hypoxia?treated BV2(P<0.05). The ratio between the mRNA levels of M1 markers and M2 markers(CD16:CD206,iNOS:CD206 and iNOS:TGF?β)were also highly declined(P<0.05). Conclusion Hypoxia can induce microglial cells toward pro?inflammatory phenotype. Both VPA and H2 can inhibit hypoxia?induced inflammatory effect on microglia.

Objective To discuss the value of intrapartum operation in management of birth defects and the prognosis. Methods From August 2008 to November 2009, 11 fetuses were identified with birth defects through 3D color Doppler ultrasound and confirmed by MRI and fetal karyotype in the Maternal Fetal Medicine Center, Affiliated Shengjing Hospital, China Medical University including three lymphangiomas,two congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDH), one sacrococcygeal teratoma, three omphalocele and two gastroschisi. All the above identified birth defects were indications for surgery. All fetuses were born abdominally and received intrapartum operations, including three intrapartum fetal operations with placental infusion (two repairs of CDH, one sacrococcygeal teratoma resection), six ex-utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT; two repairs of omphalocele, two repairs of gastroschisi, two lymphangioma resection) and two surgeries in house (one omphalocele repair and one lymphangioma resection). Both the mothers and fetuses were regularly followed up. Results ( 1 ) Operations: the average operating time for the three intrapartum fetal operations was 89 minites, 5.5 minites for the six EXIT, during which EXIT was performed first,followed by blocking the umbilical circulation and neonatal surgery, and 37 minites for the two surgeries in house. All neonates survived except for one death from severe CDH at 3.5 hours after the operation. The average blood loss for cesarean section and fetal operation was 275 ml. All mothers recovered soon without fever or infection and were discharged three to five days after the operation. (2) Follow-ups: the ten survived neonates were followed up at 1 - 18 mouths at the pediatric clinics and all were growing and developing normally except for one baby with gastroschisi suffered from enteral torsion and feeding intolerance showed lower weight than babies at the same age, but catched up to normal at four months old after posture therapy. One baby with mild CDH developed pulmonary infection at two months after operation with 1/4 pneumothorax on chest X-ray, and were hospitalized for two weeks. At six months old, patent ductus arteriosus was diagnosed in the same baby and chest X-ray was normal. The baby with omphalocele was complicated with ventricular septal defect before operation and the cardiac function was normal during followups for one year. The baby with sacrococcygeal teratoma was reported to have no automatic micturition, but recovered to normal at one month of age. Conclusion Babies with certain birth defects can be managed through intrapartum operation with better outcomes.

Objective To analyze the effects of valproic acid(VPA),a histone deacetylase(HDAC)inhibitor,on macrophage polarization in?duced by paraquat(PQ)or lipopolysaccharide(LPS). Methods Mouse RAW264.7 cells were cultured at 37℃with 5%CO2,passaged,and then given one of the following treatments:(1)PQ;(2)PQ+VPA(classⅠandⅡa HDAC inhibitor);(3)PQ+apicidin(classⅠHDAC inhibitor);(4)PQ+MC1568(classⅡa HDAC inhibitor);(5)LPS;(6)LPS+VPA;(7)LPS+apicidin;(8)LPS+MC1568. The cells and culture supernatants were harvested after 8 h of treatment. RT?PCR,ELISA,and flow cytometry were conducted to assess the expression levels of macrophage phenotyp?ic markers. Results Both PQ and LPS skewed the macrophage functional polarity toward proinflammatory phenotype. VPA,apicidin,and MC1568 all inhibited PQ?and LPS?induced macrophages polarizing toward pro?inflammatory phenotype ,but the inhibitory effects were different in some ways. Conclusion VPA inhibits the proinflammatory function of macrophages induced by PQ and LPS ,but the effect of VPA on PQ?and LPS?induced macrophages has its own characteristics.

Objective:
To discuss the formation mechanism of the aging characteristics of the labiomandibular fold in the lower face, through anatomical and histological study of the labiomandibular fold area.
Methods:
①The methylene blue dye was injected into the jowl fat compartment and the labiomandibular fat compartment which were located in one side of the face of adult fresh cadaveric heads(5 male, 3 female), the labiomandibular fold area was the uncolored region which between the two colored fat compartments. ②Combining with the observation by eyes, symmetrical region of theobjective ly marked labiomandibular fold on the other side of the face in the same head was selected to dissect with microsurgery technique under microscope. The locations, characteristics and adjacent relationships of the anatomical structures of the labiomandibular fold were observed carefully. During the experiment, some related tissues were measured by vernier caliper and recorded by the text and image. ③The symmetrical region of the marked labiomandibular fold with the methylene blue dye (step①) was cut, dehydrated, imbedded in paraffin and serially sliced in cross-section with the thickness of 10 μm. After that, the sections were used to perform HE stain and Masson stain.
Results:
The labiomandibular fold is the area of the face which located in the surface of the depressor anguli oris muscle and extends from the mouth corner to the mandibular border. The superior boundary of the labiomandibular fold is formed by the cutaneous insertion of the depressor anguli oris muscle around the mouth corner. The inferior boundary is the mandibular ligament. The lateral and medial area of the labiomandibular fold are the jowl fat compartment and the labiomandibular fat compartment respectively. However, the adipose tissue of the jowl fat compartment is bigger, thicker, looser and lighter in color. Theresult of the histologic evaluation are consistent with the findings of the gross anatomy.
Conclusions
According to the characteristics of the labiomandibular fold, there are many aspects of reasons for the emergence of the labiomandibular fold, such as the relaxation of the facial retaining ligaments associated with the labiomandibular fold and the descensus of the lateral soft tissue of the labiomandibular fold with age. In addition, the differences in structure and morphology between the medial and lateral fat compartments of the labiomandibular fold also play a vital role.
