OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of recombinant human endostatin (rh-endostatin) combined with Lobaplatin for injection and irinotecan injection in the treatment of advanced recurrent small cell lung cancer (SCLC). METHODS:A total of 88 patients with advanced recurrent SCLC in our hospital were divided into control group (41 cases) and observation group (47 cases) according to random number table. Control group was given Irinotecan injection+Lobaplatin for injection. Observation group was additionally given Recombinart human endostatin injection 15 mg added into 0.9%Sodium chloride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd,for consecutive 14 d,every 14 d. A treatment course lasted for 28 d,and both groups were treated for 2 courses. The clinical efficacy,the levels of serum carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),the scores physical state (ECOG) and quality of life (QOL) before,after treatment were observed in the two groups,and the survival and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group was 59.6%,which was higher than 43.9% of control group,but there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in serum CEA levels,ECOG scores or QOL scores,between 2 groups(P>0.05);after treatment,the serum CEA levels of the two groups were significantly decreased,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistically significant (P<0.05). In observation group,ECOG scores decreased while QOL scores increased significantly,and significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The overall survival(OS)of observation group was 16.8 months,which was significantly higher than 11.5 months of control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The incidence of leucopenia in observation group was significantly higher than control group;the incidence of leucopenia and abnormal liver function were significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Rh-endostatin injection combined with lobaplatin and irinotecan can improve serum CEA levels and the quality of living aswell as prolong the survival time.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effects of Shenfu Injection (SF) on cytokines during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in infants.

METHODSTwenty-four infants with congenital heart disease, aged below three years, were randomly assigned to the control group and the SF group equally. In the SF group, 1 mL/kg of SF was given through center vein pump after center vein puncture being performed, while only normal saline was given instead in the control group. Blood sample was obtained for measurement of serum necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentration by ELISA, at various time points in the process, i.e. right after anesthesia induction (T1), beginning of CPB (T2), aortic off-clamping (T3), 20 min after CPB (T4), the end of CPB (T5), and 6 h (T6) and 24 h (T7) after CPB.

RESULTSThe time for reverting to sinus heart rhythm and analepsia after CPB was shorter in the SF group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Serum concentration of TNF-a and IL-6 was equal in the two groups at T1; they increased significantly after CPB (P < 0.05), reached the peak value at T4 and reduced to the normal level at T7 in the control group. TNF-alpha concentration was significantly lower at T3, T4 and T5, and IL-6 concentration was lower at T4 in the SF group than that in the control group at corresponding time point (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSF could shorten the time for reverting to sinus heart rhythm and analepsia after CPB in infants, and suppress the inflammatory response caused by CPB.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the endoscopic characteristics of chronic gastritis,duodenitis,peptic ulcer and their histopathologic findings in children,and explore the relationship between Helicobacter pylori(Hp) infection and the severity of histopathologic changes of gastroduodenal mucosa in children. Methods Three hundreds and sixty-six children with chronic upper gastrointestinal symptoms who were examined by gastroscopy were enrolled.The gastric and duodenal mucosal biopsy specimens of all the patients were studied histopathologically. ResultsTypes of chronic gastroduodenal diseases in all these patients were: chronic gastritis(n=206,56.3%),chronic gastritis combined with duodenitis(n=112,30.6%),chronic gastritis combined with peptic ulcer(n=48,13.1%).There was chronic inflammation in gastric mucosa and duodenal bulb mucosa in all the cases examined by histopathologic examination.Hp infection was found in 106 cases(28.96%).The gastric mucosal inflammation was more severe in those with Hp infection than those without(P0.05).The were significant differences in the incidences of inflammation activity,atrophia and nodulus lymphaticus of gastric mucosa between those with Hp infection and those without(P

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of combined therapy for amblyopia in children by making use of pattern visual evoked potential ( P-VEP) game.
METHODS: This was a prospective case control study. These asthenopic children were divided into two groups. The control group ( 66 eyes of 49 patients ): occlusive therapy with glasses, cover, precision work, red light treatment and so on, later the stereo vision training was added. The experimental group (72 eyes of 52 patients):conventional methods mentioned above with P - VEP games.
RESULTS: The total effective rate and cure rate of experimental group in 6mo were higher than those of control group. The overall effective rate was 94. 4% in the experimental group and 83. 3% in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference between them (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The comprehensive therapy by making use of P-VEP game is an individualized effective new way in treating amblyopia.

To discuss the effective method of decreasing the postoperative recurrence rate of recurrent pterygium.
●METHODS:Totally 126 cases (126 eyes) with recurrent pterygium were randomly divided into A group (56 cases) and B group ( 70 cases ). Group A was treated by pterygium conjunctive reverse transplantation combined with amniotic membrane transplantation, group B was treated by amniotic membrane transplantation. The followed-up time after surgery was 6-24mo.
●RESULTS:ln group A, postoperative 5-7d (average 5. 62± 1. 38d), cornea epithelium was repaired. ln group B, postoperative 7- 10d ( average 7. 38 ± 1. 12d), the corneal wound was healed. There was statistical significant difference between two groups (t = 4. 307,P<0. 05). Three cases recurrence were noted in A therapeutic group (56 cases), the recurrent rate was 5. 4%; Twelve cases recurrence were noted in B compared group (70 cases), the recurrent rate was 17. 1%. There was statistical significant difference between two groups(P<0. 05).

Objective:To investigate therapeutic efficacy and mechanisms of action of oncolytic agent derived from herpes simplex virus type 2 (oHSV2) in a xenograft mouse model bearing CT26 colorectal cancer. Methods:BALB/c mice were subcutaneously inoculated with CT26 cells to establish a xenograft mouse model of colorectal cancer. 1) After intratumoral administration of oHSV2, enzyme-linked im-munosorbent assay was used to determine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) expression levels in the blood. 2) Model mice were divided into three groups:PBS group (negative control), oHSV2 group, and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) group (positive control). After drug administration, drug effectiveness was evaluated on the basis of weight, tumor volume, general state, and survival time. 3) Cells from the draining lymph nodes (TDLN) and tumor were surgical y removed and used to quantify mature dendritic cel s (DCs) and T lym-phocytes by flow cytometry. Result:1) In the CT26 xenograft model, level of GM-CSF continuously elevated. At day 8, peak value was attained in the blood at concentration of 3150±327.1 pg/mL. Then, GM-CSF expression gradually reduced as time progressed. 2) In in vivo study, both oHSV2 and 5-FU exerted antitumor effects relative to PBS group (50 days vs. 36 days, P<0.01;51 days vs. 36 days, P<0.01), and oHSV2 proved to be less toxic and safer. At day 28, the 5-FU group presented highly significant difference in mouse body weight compared with that of PBS group (16.61 g vs. 22.07 g, P<0.01). However, oHSV2 group did not show statistical y significant change (al P>0.05). Skin of virus injection region did not present necrosis and ulceration. 3) In the TDLN, the frequency of DC was increased when treated with oHSV2 compared with the control group (6.49%vs. 3.73%, P<0.01). Similarly, the percentage of CD4+and CD8+T-cel s from the oHSV2-treated group was signifcantly higher than mock-treated tumors (15%vs. 8.57%, P<0.01;8.19%vs. 5.15%, P<0.01). However, number of cells in the 5-FU group were significantly reduced with respect to that of the negative group (al P<0.01). Conclusion:oHSV2 exerted potent antitumor effects in a murine colorectal cancer model. Compared with 5-FU, oHSV2 treatment caused fewer side effects. Such antitumor effect may be induced by stimulation of immune activity by GM-CSF production.
