Objective:To discuss the significance of standardized treatment for cancer pain, according to the Cancer Pain Treat-ment Specification (2011 Edition) issued by the Ministry of Health, PR China. Methods:Clinical data of 126 patients with cancer pain, who were admitted to the Department of Medical Oncology, The Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, were collected to com-pare the improvement of the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) score, number of breakthrough pain, and quality of life score after treatment. The relationships between different pain grades, disease entities, and treatment effect were analyzed. The influence factors of pain relief were also analyzed by using Logistic regression analysis. Results:1). Following standardized treatment, the improvement rate of NRS score has shown significant differences in pain grading (P=0.001) and gender (P=0.000). However, no significant differences were ob-served between different diseases (P=0.112). The improvement rate of the life quality score and the number of breakthrough pain had no significant difference after standardized treatment. 2). The grading of cancer pain and the disease entities had little effect on cancer pain relief. 3). The anti-tumor treatment and“no distant metastasis”were the independent factors that brought about the decrease in NRS and quality of life scores.“No distant metastasis”(P=0.046) was the independent factor that reduced the number of pain out-breaks. Conclusion: The standardized treatment positively affects the NRS score, number of breakthrough pain, and quality of life score. Patients who received anti-neoplastic therapy and who had no distant metastasis showed significant treatment effectiveness in pain management.

Viable but non-culturable state in bacterial cells as received uncultured microorganism has be- come the fundamental research issues in medical microbiology, epidemiology, general microbial ecology and sanitation quarantine since it was put forward in 1982. When in this state, bacterium are no longer able to grow and form colonies on conventional culture media, but maintain their patheogenicity, may become latent infection escaping detection to threaten enviroment and human security. With the development of modern molecular biology technique and metagenomics, it provide new research method and opportunity for uncul- tured microorganism in the environment. Recently, with the application of the metagenome technique, ge- netic fingerprinting technical etc, it becomes more and more popular. Simultaneously, along with this state become maturity in the laboratory. It provides a new research route for development and exploitation the uncultured microorganism.

To improve the students'! comprehensive quality and cultivate their innovative medical talents, we applied different forms of discussion teaching in different stages of the students. In the course of theory, the form of short discussion was adopted to improve the students'! interest and concentration. In preclinical practice stage, the method of problem centered discussion was used to consolidate the profes-sional knowledge of the students. Discussion in the clinical practice was based on the actual problem of diagnosis and treatment, in order to cultivate the students'!clinical thinking. Through the diversified practice of discussion teaching with positive teaching evaluation, students'!interest in oral and maxillofacial surgery and the quality of teaching were improved.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic and differentiable value of video-electroencephalogram(VEEG)in sleeping-related seizure disorder.Method Sixty-five cases with sleeping-related seizure disorders(35 suspected epilepsy and 30 suspected non-epileptic seizure)enrolled in our clinics from Jan.2005 to Jun.2006 were examined by VEEG and EEG.Results Among 35 children suspected to have the possibility of epilepsy,the epileptic discharge rate examined with VEEG was 62.86%(22/35),which were significantly higher than that by EEG was 17.14%(6/35)(P

Objective To explore the changes of plasma brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)of sepsis combined with myocardial injury in newborns.Methods According to neonatal sepsis treatment program,45 cases of sepsis newborns in NICU of the Second Hospital in Lanzhou University from Jul.2007 to Jun.2008 were collected.According to the myocardial injury diagnostic criteria,45 cases neonatal sepsis were divided into myocardial injury group(n=22) and non-myocardial injury group(n=23).Myocardial injury group was also divided into congenital heart disease group and non-congenital heart disease group accor-ding to echocardiography.At the same time,30 healthy newborns were collected as healthy control group.Every newborns were tested the level of plasma BNP,NT-proBNP,creatine kinase-MB(CK-MB) and cardiac-troponin I (cTnI).Results There were significant difference between myocardial injury group,non-myocardial injury group and healthy control group in the levels of plasma BNP,NT-proBNP,CK-MB and cTnI,those in congenital heart disease group were higher than those in non-myocardial injury group and the healthy control group(Pa0.05).Conclusions BNP and NT-proBNP can be early used to diagnose myocardial injury and heart failure of neonatal sepsis associated with CK-MB and cTnI.In NICU,infants with sepsis should normally test BNP and NT-proBNP in order to early diagnose myocardial injury of neonatal sepsis.

Objective To explore the ideal treatment mode of brain metastases by Meta-analysis.Methods Articles were searched for from the databases at home and abroad using English and Chinese keywords.Searching time limited from the databases setting up to December 30,2012.Jadad score was applied to evaluate the qualities of literatures.RevMan5.0 software was applied to perform the Meta-analysis.A totle of 25 articles including 2 750 patients were eligible for the Meta-analysis,which divided into groups with different treatment.Results Compared with monotherapy,combined therapy improved 1-year survival (OR =0.58,95％ CI:0.46 ～0.71,P ＜0.000 01).In combined therapy groups,compared with two methods,three kinds of therapies improved 1-year survival (OR =0.63,95 ％ CI:0.50 ～ 0.80,P =0.000 1).Compared with local therapy only or systemic therapy only,systemic combined local therapy improved 1-year survival (OR =0.68,95％ CI:0.53 ～ 0.86,P =0.001 ; OR =0.59,95％ CI:0.41 ～ 0.86,P =0.006).In systemic combined local therapy groups,three kinds of treatments improved 1-year survival compared with two methods (OR =0.52,95％ CI:0.35 ～ 0.78,P =0.002).Compared with non-molecular targeted therapy,molecular targeted therapy improved 1-year survival (OR =0.76,95％ CI:0.67 ～ 0.87,P ＜ 0.000 1).Conclusion The reasonable treatment for patients with brain metastases is combined treatment with operation,radiotherapy and chemotherapy.There is better curative effect added molecular targeted therapy based on original scheme,if patients have targeted therapy indications.

Objective To investigate the impacts of pyruvate kinase M2 isoform (PKM2) silencing on the radiosensitivity of lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549 cells) and the radiation synergy of xenografts, and to explore their mechanisms. Methods Plasmid pshRNA?PKM2 for interference with PKM2 expression was transfected into A549 cells, and empty vector?transfected cells and untransfected cells were set as con?trols. The silencing efficiency of pshRNA?PKM2 and the expression level of microtubule?associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3) were measured by Western blot assay. The radiosensitizing effects in A549 cells and xen?ografts after PKM2 silencing were determined by colony?forming assay and xenografts growth curves. Autoph?agy formation in A549 cells and xenografts was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy, and the ex?pression level of PKM2 in xenografts was measured by immunohistochemistry. Comparison between groups was made by Student′s t?test, and the body weights of nude mice and xenograft volumes were subjected to a?nalysis of variance for continuous variables. Results Stable A549 cell lines transfected with pshRNA?PKM2 were successfully produced. Transfection with pshRNA?PKM2 significantly down?regulated PKM2 expression in A549 cells and xenografts (P= 0?? 001;P= 0?? 000). The sensitizer enhancement ratios for A549 cells and xenografts were 1?? 47 and 2?? 00, respectively. Interference with PKM2 expression enhanced radiation?in duced autophagy formation and significantly increased the ratio of LC 3 ? II / I ( P= 0.000 1 ) . Conclusions Silencing of PKM2 expression may enhance the radiosensitivity of A549 cells and xenografts by regulation of autophagy, which holds promise for becoming an effective radiosensitizing target for non?small cell lung canc?er, but still needs to be confirmed by further studies.

Objective To investigate the prognostic significance of follicular lymphoma international prognostic index (FLIPI) and FLIPI2 in Chinese FL patients for better prognostic model.Methods 63 newly diagnosed FL patients who received rituximab plus CHOP (cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine and prednisone)-like chemotherapy from January 2003 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed according to FLIPI and FLIPI2 scoring system.Results According to FLIPI,31 patients (49.2 ％) were stratified into the low risk group (0-1 point),24 (38.1％) into the intermediate risk group (2 points),and 8 (12.7 ％) into the high risk group (3-5 points).As for FLIPI2 scoring,17 cases (27.0 ％) were classified in low risk group (0 point),42 cases (68.3 ％) in intermediate risk group (1-2 points),and 4 cases in high risk group (3-5 points).The overall response rates and 2-year progression free survival (PFS) rates of the three risk groups were 93.5 ％ (29/31),91.7 ％ (22/24),75.0 ％ (6/8) (P =0.27),and 85.7 ％,75.2 ％,58.8 ％ (Log-rank =1.063,P =0.59) respectively in FLIPI.In terms of FLIPI2,the overall response rates and 2-year PFS rates of the three groups were 100.0 ％ (17/17),90.7 ％ (39/42),50.0 ％ (2/4) (P =0.01) and 92.9 ％,74.0 ％,33.3 ％ (Log-rank =7.075,P =0.03).Conclusion FLIPI2 presents more robust prognostic significance than FLIPI in disease progression perspective for FL patients treated with R-CHOP like regimens in this study.
