Background:With the deepening of researches on etiology of gastrointestinal bleeding,bleeding caused by pancreatic diseases has been understood better by the clinicians. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB)is an uncommon but highly lethal complication of pancreatic diseases. Aims:To analyze the clinical characteristics of UGIB caused by pancreatic diseases for improving the diagnosis and management of this condition. Methods:A total of 22 inpatients who were diagnosed as UGIB caused by pancreatic diseases from Sep. 2010 to Sep. 2016 at Daping Hospital,the Third Military Medical University were recruited and analyzed retrospectively. Results:There were 15 males and 7 females;the disease was more prevalent in young patients than in middle-aged and elderly patients (45. 5% vs. 31. 8% and 22. 7%). The top five causes of bleeding were as follows:stress ulcer related to acute pancreatitis (36. 4%),pancreatic pseudocysts related to chronic pancreatitis (18. 2%),severe acute pancreatitis (13. 6%),post-operative bleeding related to pancreatic surgery (9. 1%)and left-sided portal hypertension (9. 1%). The diagnosis was commonly made by gastroscopy, abdominal contrast-enhanced CT and angiography. Ten patients received medical therapy only,6 were treated by surgical operation,5 by endoscopic hemostasis,and 1 by angioembolization. Hemostasis was achieved in 18 patients (81. 8%), and rebleeding occurred in 4 patients,of which two received medical therapy initially. Two elderly patients died of uncontrollable bleeding and multiple organ failure,respectively. Conclusions:UGIB caused by pancreatic diseases are prone to occur in young and middle-aged males. Pancreatitis and its complications are the major cause of this condition. Medical therapy is ineffective for most of the patients and a multidisciplinary approach of endoscopy,transarterial intervention and surgery is recommended.

Objective:Positive effects of bioactive glass (BG) on proliferation,mineralization,and differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) was already verified in various former studies.The Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser sequence (RGDS) was confirmed of affecting cell adhesion.Before further investigation,the objective of this study is to investigate whether RGDS can affect the effects of BG on the adhesion,proliferation and mineralization of hDPCs.Methods: hDPCs were harvested from third molars of 18-25-year-old individuals after informed consent.Enzyme digestion technique was used.The 4th to 6th ge-neration of hDPCs were used for all experiments.The cells of the experimental groups were cultured in Dulbecco minimum essential medium (DMEM) containing ionic dissolution products of BG and RGDS of seve-ral concentrations (12.5 mg/L,25.0 mg/L,50.0 mg/L,100.0 mg/L,200.0 mg/L).DMEM containing ionic dissolution products of BG without RGDS was used for cell culture as control group.Cell adhesion was tested 4 h after cell seeding by MTT assay.Cell proliferation was examined at 1,3,5,7,and 9 d after cell seeding by MTT assay.Cell mineralization was investigated on days 14 and 28 by alizarin red staining.After being stained and dried,mineralized nodules were dissolved by cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) for semi-quantitative test.Results were statistically analyzed by one way ANOVA,SPSS (version 19.0) and P<0.05 was considered to be significant.Results: Cell adhesion in BG group showed no difference from that in DMEM group.Compared with BG group,hDPCs in BG+RGDS groups suggested weaker cell adhesion.When the concentration of RGDS increased,the adhered cell number decreased.hDPCs cultured with BG and RGDS showed lower proliferation activity in the early stage,while no significant difference was observed after 3 d.BG group promoted the mineralization of hDPCs compared with positive control group,negative control group and RGDS group.No significant difference was observed between BG+RGDS group and BG group or between RGDS group and positive control group.Conclusion: BG promotes proliferation and mineralization without affecting cell adhesion of hDPCs.Unbounded RGDS inhibits cell adhesion,but has no influence on the positive effects of BG on the proliferation and mineralization of hDPCs.

Objective:To investigate the proliferation,odontogenic differentiation and mineralization of human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) on bioactive glass(BG) and extracted dentin proteins(EDP).Me-thods: Primary HDPCs were isolated from third molars by enzyme digestion and were cultured in Dulbecco's minimum essential medium (DMEM).Then the 4th generation of HDPCs was cultured with DMEM,which contained BG-EDP,BG,and EDP,respectively.Meanwhile HDPCs were cultured in DMEM as control group.Proliferation of HDPCs was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide(MTT) colorimetric assay.Odontogenic differentiation was determined by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay and real-time PCR.Mineralization was investigated by Alizarin red staining and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) assay.Results: The proliferation of HDPCs was increased significantly in BG-EDP group on 3,7,and 9 d(optical density value:1.36±0.06,2.52±0.20,2.72±0.29) compared with BG(optical density value: 1.20±0.26,2.33±0.26,2.50±0.30),EDP(optical density value: 1.13±0.15,2.10±0.13,2.38±0.22) and control group(optical density va-lue: 0.84±0.17,1.84±0.18,1.95±0.19),P<0.05.After 7 days,ALP activity of BG-EDP group had no statistical difference compared with EDP group and control group;the expression of odontogenic differentiation genes (DSPP,DMP-1) showed no difference among all the groups(P>0.05).After 14 days,ALP activity of BG-EDP group (56.67±1.83) was significantly upregulated compared with EDP group (41.98±9.71) and control group (30.82±6.70),P<0.05,but had no statistical difference compared with BG group (56.29±6.20),P>0.05;DSPP gene expression was upregulated significantly in BG-EDP group (5.79±1.94) compared with the other groups (P<0.05);DMP-1 gene expression of BG-EDP group (3.87±1.87) increased but had no statistical difference compared with the other groups (P>0.05).The alizarin red staining showed more mineral nodules in BG-EDP group,the cetylpyridinium chloride semi-quantification presented higher calcification in BG-EDP group (0.27±0.01) compared with the other groups (P<0.05).Conclusion: Compared with either BG or EDP,BG-EDP significantly promotes the proliferation,odontogenic differentiation and mineralization of HDPCs.

Objective To compare the effect and safety of rituximab plus CHOP (R-CHOP) and CHOP regimens for the treatment of newly diagnosed patients with early-stage primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PG-DLBCL). Methods A total of 65 patients with PG-DLBCL were retrospectively divided into two groups: 35 patients were treated with R-CHOP regimen, the others with CHOP regimen. NHL international efficacy assessment and WHO criteria were used to assess the therapeutic and the adverse reactions respectively. Results The complete remission (CR) rate of R-CHOP group was 74.3 % (26/35), which was significantly higher than that of CHOP group [50.0 % (15/30), P< 0.05], but the adverse reactions rates of two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05). The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the five-year survival rates of two groups had no significant difference (88.6%vs 75.0%, P>0.05). The PFS of R-CHOP group was better than that of CHOP group (94.4 months vs 74.9 months, P< 0.05). Conclusion Compared with CHOP regimen , R-CHOP regimen increases the therapeutic efficacy in patients with PG-DLBCL, and dose not increase the adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological and clinical characteristics, risk factors, outcome and prevention strategy of very low birth weight infant (VLBWI) with nosocomial infection in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Methods The VLBWIs whose birth weight were less than 1500 g and hospital stays were more than 48 hours in NICU of Peking University Third Hospital from January 1, 1998 to December 31, 2008 were selected in this study. They were divided into nosocomial infection group and non-infection group. The clinical features and outcomes of nosocomial infection were summarized and the risk factors of which were analyzed with Logistic regression. Results There were 158 VLBWIs who fit for the criteria of our study during the eleven years, the mean birth weight was (1263.8± 155.5) g and the mean gestational age was (30.4±2.1) weeks. There were 70 times and 56 cases suffered from nosocomial infections. The incidence of nosocomial infection was 35.4% and hospital stay-related incidence was 14.4‰. Among 70 times of infections, there were 40(57.1%) pneumonia, 22(31.4%) septicemia, 4(5.8%) thrush, 1(1.4%)conjunctivitis, 1 ( 1.4%) upper respiratory tract infection and 2 (2.9%) unknown site infections.Forty-one strains of bacteria were isolated from 121 specimens, among which gram-negative bacillus accounted for 56.1% and gram-positive cocci for 46.3%. The duration of hospital stay of VLBWIs with nosocomial infection was significantly longer than that without [(43.7±15.5) d vs (26.3±14.4) d] (t = -7.058, P＜0.01). The fatality rate of VLBWIs with and without nosocomial infection was 3.6% (2/56) and 3.9% (4/102), and there was no significant difference (x2 = 0.012,P＞0.05). Logistic regression showed that mechanical ventilation (OR = 3.388, 95% CI: 1.656-6.932, P=0.001) and parenteral nutrition (OR= 7.054, 95%CI: 2.005-24.813, P=0.002) were risk factors of nosocomial infection. Conclusions The incidence of nosocomial infection in VLBWIs in NICU is high. Mechanical ventilation and parenteral nutrition should be avoided and the duration of invasive operation and treatment should be shortened as much as possible to minimize the chances of nosocomial infection in VLBWIs.

Background:Esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage is relatively uncommon in clinical,however,it can be life-threatening in severe cases. Thus,retrospective analysis of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage could provide important evidence for its diagnosis and treatment. Aims:To analyze the clinical characteristics of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage. Methods:A total of 175 cases of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage from January 2006 to December 2016 at Daping Hospital were enrolled. Gender,age,cause of bleeding,location of bleeding,season of onset,treatment and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed. Results:The ratio of male to female was 3. 5: 1 in 175 patients with esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage,73. 1％ of patients were middle-aged and elderly. The main cause of bleeding of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage were cardiac mucosal laceration syndrome (46. 9％),esophageal cancer (23. 4％),esophageal ulcer (12. 6％)and esophageal foreign body (12. 0％). The most common site of bleeding was lower esophagus (70. 9％). Fifty-one patients accepted endoscopic treatment or surgery. After treatment,142 patients (81. 1％)were cured or improved,and death was occurred in 27 patients (15. 4％). Conclusions:The incidence of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage is higher in male than in female,and is commonly seen in middle-aged and elderly patients. The most common cause of bleeding of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage is cardiac mucosal laceration syndrome,and the most common site of bleeding is lower esophagus. Medicine combined with endoscopic treatment is effective for most of the patients.
