Objective To evaluate the efficacy of inspiring carbogen and low concentration oxygen combined with late coupe accelerated hyperfraction radiotherapy on esophageal carcinoma.Methods 74 patients with esophageal carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups:the trial group and the centrol group,which consisted of 37 patients respectively.6MV X-ray was employed in the two groups.The schedule of the trial group was as following:conventional radiotherapy of 1.8～2.0Gy per day was employed during the first phase to a total dose of 38～40Gy,followed by late course accelerated hyperfraetion radiotherapy(twice fractions per day,interval between two fractions more than 6 hours,1.3～1.4Gy per fraction,middle total dose of 64.2Gy).Carbogen and low concentraetion oxygen was inspired during the course of radiation.Results 71 patients were enrolled.At the end of radiation at a total dose of 38～40Gy,complete remission rate(CRR)in the trial group was 31%,whereas that in the control group was 19%(P＞0.05),when the whole radiotherapy was finished,the CRR was 57%and 31%(P＜0.05)respectively,and one month after radiotherapy.the CRR was 71%and 33%respectively(P＜0.01).Six months after radiotherapy,the CRR WaLa 74%and 36%respectively(P＜0.01).Thelocal controlrate of sixmonthswas 91% and 72% respectively in the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusions Inspiring carbogen and low concentration oxygen combined with late course accelerated hyperfraction radiotherapy may sigllificantly improve short-term efficacy and local control rate in esophageal carcinoma patients in Ⅰ～Ⅲstage.Furthermore,its side effects can be tolerated,and its elongating life time of patients may be prognostic.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and adverse effects of low doses gemcitabine chemotherapy combined with synchronous high-low oxygen radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.Methods Fifty-six patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer were randomly divided into two groups by envelop method:radio-chemotherapy group or chemotherapy group.Patients in radio-chmotherapy group were treated with low doses of gemcitabine chemotherapy ( 600 mg/m2 ) combined with high-low oxygen radiotherapy synchronously,paients in chmotherapy group were treated with full doses of gemcitabine chemotherapy ( 1000 mg/m2).The short-term effect,distant metastasis rate,clinical benefit rate,survival rate and adverse events of two groups were observed.Results There was one patient achievedcomplete relief and 15 patients achieved partial relief in radio-chemotherapy group with an overall effective rate of 66.7％ (16/24) ; there were 9 patients achieved partial relief in chemotherapy group with an overall effective rate of 36.0％ (9/25),the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (X2 =4.6082,P =0.0318 ).The clinical benefit rates were 83.3 ％ ( 20/24 ) and 60％ ( 15/25 ),respectively,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P =0.070).The distant metastasis rates were 66.7％(16/24) and 72％ (18/25),respectively,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P =0.6855).The 12,24 months survival rates were 62.5％ vs 32％,37.5％ vs 12％,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P =0.0325,0.0380).The incidence of serious adverse events was 45.8％ and 4 0 ％ without statistical difference.Conclusions Low doses of gemcitabine chemotherapy combined with high-low oxygen radiotherapy synchronously is better than full doses of gemcitabine chemotherapy with regard to total effective rates and 12,24 months survival rates,with no obvious increase in the incidence of serious adverse events.

objective To examine nuclear transIocation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ(PPARγ)in rats following focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion(I/R),and to explore the significance of altered PPARγ,nuclear translocation in ischemic brain injury.Methods Healthy adult male SD rats underwent 60-min cerebral artery occlusion followed by reperfusion of 4,8,or 24 h,respectively.The cytoplasmic-to-nuclear shuttling of PPARγ was characterized by Western blot,immunohistochemical and immunofluoreseence staining.The effects of PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone (Ros) and antagonist GW9662 on I/R-induced PPARγ nuclear translocation were also examined in the present study. Furthermore,TTC staining war adopted to determine the change in cerebral infarction volume. Results (1)Western blot analysis revealed an increase of PPARγ in the nucleus and a simultaneous reduction in the cytosol following ischemia and reperfusion for 4 h(tcytosol=9.03,tmuclear=27.19,P=0.00).Prolonged the reperfusion further enhanced this I/R induced PPARγ translocation in a time-dependent manner.Using immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence,nuclear PPAR γ positive staining increased from 48.3%in the sham control to 80.3% following ischemia and reperfusion for 24 h.(2)Western blot analysis revealed that PPARγ agonist Ros further increased I/R-induced nuclear enrichment of PPARγ,whereas PPARγ antagonist GW9662inhibited I/R-stimulated change in PPARγ.(3)When compared to the L/R group using TTC staining,Ros treatment significantly decreased the infarction volume by 48.40%(15.46±4.94 versus 29.96±3.39,t=5.93.P=0.00),whereas GW9662 increased by 58.95%(47.62±4.93 versus 29.96±3.39,t=7.23,P=0.00).Conclusions Cerebral I/R injury induces PPARγ translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus.This change may represent an intrinsic neuroprotective response against brain I/R injury.

Objective To investigate jugular vein morphological changes with three dimension phase contrast magnetic resonance venography(3D PC MRV),and to explore hemodynamic features using MR phase contrast cine (MR PC cine).Methods Sixty-five healthy volunteers performed 3D PC MRV and MR PC-cine sannings.MRV ranged from torcular herophili to brachiocephalic veins, and the raw data of PC-cine was acquired at cervical 2-3(C2-C3)level perpendicular to the Jugular veins(JVs)with the maximum encoding velocity of 50 cm/sec.Jugular vein showing absent or tip shape(cross-sectional area less than 12.5 mm2 )was considered abnormal,and flat,crescent,oval,round shapes were considered normal.Data of PC-cine was processed by computer to evaluate the hemodynamic features.Results Nine (13.85%)of 65 cases were abnormal that unilateral jugular vein showing needle-pointed narrow or absent,and 8 cases on the left,and one case on the right;Weak correlation was found between jugular veins pattern and the age.The right sided values in volunteers were higher than that of the left side.Conclusion The morphology and hemodynamics of jugular veins in volunteers showed significant difference between sides,and weak correlation is found between the morphology and aging.

Peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) belongs to a nuclear receptor superfamily. Many studies have shown that PPARγ can help to improve the outcome of cerebrovascular disease. PPARγ can reduce inflammatory response, oxidative stress as wel as enhance the hematoma removal abilities of microglia and macrophages, and it plays an important protective role in intracerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of low dose 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) combined with triamcinolone in the treatment of keloids, comparing with results with use of triamcinolone treatment alone.Methods Patient records from 2012 to 2013 were reviewed.45 patients (56 keloids) were completely randomized into 2 groups.Low dose of 5-Fu combined with triamcinolone were used to treat keloids in group A, while triamcinolone alone was used in group B.The therapeutic effects were evaluated by the certification of excellent remission, remission, inefficacy and total efficacy.The results were analyzed with statistics.Results In group A (27 keloids), the excellent remission cases were 16 (59.3%), the remission cases were 9 (33.3%), and the inefficacy cases were 2 (7.4%).The total percentage of efficacy in group A was 92.6%.In group B (29 keloids), the excellent remission cases were 9 (31.0%), the remission cases were 12 (41.4%), and the inefficacy cases were 8 (27.6%).The total therapy efficacy percentage of group B was 72.4%.Both the total percentage of efficacy and the excellent remission percentage in group A were apparently higher than those of group B, and the differences between the two groups were of statistical significance (P<0.05).The recurrence rates of group A were 3.7% (one case) while that of group B were 24.1% (7 cases).The differences between the two groups were also of statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusions Low dose 5-Fu combined with triamcinolone is superior to intralesional triamcinolone therapy alone in the treatment of keloids.

Objective To analysis the correlation of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and perihematoma edema of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods One hundred and forty-four patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were collected and 78 of these patients were suffered from OSAHS.The patients were divided into two groups,control and OSAHS group,according to whether were accompanied by OSAHS or not.Both of the groups received the routine treatments including dehydration,reducing blood press,protecting the cerebral cells and so on.Cerebral CT scan was taken on admission.Night polymonography (PSG) was done within 24 hours of admission.Twenty-four hours and 4 days after admission,cerebral CT scan was taken again.The volumes of cephalophyma and perihematoma edema were calculated according to the results of CT scan.The changes of cephalophyma and perihematoma edema were dynamic observed.Results No difference in patients' age,sex,body mass index,serum glucose,blood lipid and so on,was observed between the two groups.The relative edema index became significantly different until 4 days after admission (0.40 ± 0.45,0.96 ± 1.35 in control and OSAHS group respectively,t =4.149,P =0.000).Similarly,the alternation edema index of OSAHS was obviously higher than that of control group only in 4 days after admission.While the analysis of the correlation between different degree OSAHS groups and edema indexes showed that at 24 hours after admission the edema volumes for different degree OSAHS groups were consistent (1.05 ± 0.65,0.84 ± 0.48,1.20 ± 0.54,1.10 ±0.40 in control,slight,moderate and severe groups respectively,F =1.061,P =0.374).At 24 hours and 4 days after admission,the edema volumes were positively correlated with the degree of OSAHS.Alternation edema index was significantly correlated with apnea hypopnea index according to the result of Pearson' s correlation analysis (r =0.652,P =0.000).Conclusion OSAHS complication can promote the progression of perihematoma edema of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage,and the degree of edema aggravation is positive correlated to the degree of OSAHS.

Objective To investigate the effect of maternal deprivation (MD) on neurobehavior and PP1Cγgene expression in hippocampus. Methods Male pups were randomly divided into MD group(thirty-five)and control group(twenty-four). From PND 1 to PND 21 ,pups in the MD groups underwent daily maternal deprivation for 3 h ( Postnatal day). Neurobehavior was observed to investigate neurodevelopment, Morris water maze was used to measure spatial learning and memory,and Real-Time quantitative PCR was employed to analyze PP1Cγ gene expression. Results Several significant deficiencies were observed in bodyweight and grasping reflex while a great enhancement in hot-plate test in rat pups suffering from MD( (26.23 ± 2.81 )g vs. (30. 38 ± 3.85 )g;( 19.37 ± 11.89) s vs. (22.39 ± 17.62 ) s; (4.36 ± 1.76 ) s vs. ( 5.26 ± 2.55 ) s; P ＜ 0. 05 ), but deficiencies in neurological reflexes were subtle ( ( 0.83 ±- 0.30 ) s vs. ( 0. 83 ± 0. 34 ) s; ( 3.68 ± 1.63 ) s vs. ( 5.61 ± 3. 01 ) s;( 3.00 ± 0.00 ) vs. ( 3.00 ± 0. 00); P ＞ 0. 05 ). MD had a subtle influence on spatial learning and memory (P ＞0.05). Meanwhile,MD could lead to PP1Cγ expression down-regulation on PND 22 ( (2.19 ±0.62) vs. (3.52 ±0.86), P＜0. 05)which was in line with early neurobehavior results. No difference was found compared with MD group and control group on PND60 ( ( 1.73 ± 0. 78 ) vs. ( 1.33 ± 0. 34); P ＞ 0.05 ). However, there was the up-regulation of PP1Cγexpression on PND 90 ( (2.85 ± 0. 34) vs. ( 1.34 ± 0.93 ); P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusion MD alters early neurobehavior and hippocampal PP1Cγgene expression in the Wistar rats,but has a subtle effect on learning and memory. At the same time,MD can make PP1Cγexpression in the hippocampus varying with the age.
