Chinese Journal of Radiological Medicine and Protection 2010;30(6):639-642
Objective To explore the neuroprotective effect of magnesium sulfate on radiation induced neural stem cell injury. Methods Brain tissue was obtained from new-born sprague-dawley rats within 24 hours, and the cerebral hemisphere was dissociated to culture the neural stem cells. After being identified by immunofluorescence method, the neural stem cells were randomly divided into 3 groups as blank control group, experimental control group and experimental group. The neural stem cells of experimental control group and experimental group were irradiated with 2 or 4 Gy of gamma rays. The proliferation and the cell cycle of neural stem cells were detected at different time-points ranging from 24 h,48 h, 72 h after irradiation with CCK-8 and FCM. Results Compared with the blank control group, the proliferation rate of experimental control group was significantly reduced ( t = 5. 33-8.44, P < 0. 05 ), and the G1 phase arrest of experimental control group was significantly enhanced ( t = 30. 60-71.22, P < 0. 05 ).Compared with the experimental control group, the proliferation of experimental group significantly increased excluding that of 24 h ( t = 2.45-4. 71, P < 0.05 ), the apoptosis rate of experimental group significantly decreasd (t = 6.73-41.12, P < 0.05 ), which was closer to the blank control group.Conclusion Magnesium sulfate can alleviate the injury of proliferation and decrease the cell apoptosis in the early stage after irradiation.

Journal of Chinese Physician 2021;23(2):167-170
Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecologic malignancy. Although the overall prognosis of EC patients is relatively good, patients with high-grade, recurrent, metastatic usually have a dismal prognosis. Lymph node status is one of the most important prognostic factors. However, for patients of early EC, whether lymphadenectomy must to be performed and its extent are still controversial. In this article, the indications of lymphadenectomy for early EC patients, the level of para-aortic lymph node dissection and the application of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) were reviewed respectively.
3.Effects of thermotherapy on Th1/Th2 cells and plasma VEGF in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with chemotherapy
Journal of Chinese Physician 2016;18(5):713-716
Objective To investigate the effect of hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy on the changes of immunity balance of Th1/Th2 and cytokines such as interleukin-2 (IL-2),interferon-γ (IFN-γ),IL-4,IL-10,and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.Methods Fifty patients with advanced NSCLC were randomly divided into thermochemotherapy group (n =25,received whole body hyperthermia combined TP chemotherapy),and chemotherapy group (n =25,received TP chemotherapy alone).The immunity balance of Th1/Th2,IL-2,IFN-γ,IL-4,IL-10,and VEGF levels before therapy and 1 week after therapy were observed.At the same time,the above observation indices were also detected as normal control in 20 healthy volunteers.Results Compared to the chemotherapy group,the proportion of Th1 cells from thermochemotherapy group was significantly increased after therapy (P =0.002) and that of Th2 cells was dropped markedly (P =0.006).There was no difference in the levels of IL-2,IFN~,IL4,IL-10,and VEGF between thermochemotherapy and chemotherapy groups before therapy (P > 0.05).However,the expressions of ILA,IL-10,and VEGF in the NSCLC group were significantly higher than normal group (P < 0.01).The IL-2 and IFN-γ levels were significantly decreased in NSCLC group (P <0.01).After therapy 1 week,the concentration of IL-2 and IFN-γfrom thermochemotherapy and chemotherapy groups were higher than before,with statistical significance (P <0.01).In addition,IL-4 and IL-10 levels of two groups were significantly decreased in comparison with before therapy (P < 0.01),and it showed a striking difference in cytokines (IL-2,IFN-γ,IL-4,and IL-10) between two groups (P < 0.05).However,the concentration of VEGF in chemotherapy group patients before and after chemotherapy had no significant difference (P > 0.05).The concentration of VEGF from thermochemotherapy group patients after therapy were lower than chemotherapy group patients,the difference had statistical significance (P < 0.01).Conclusions Thermochemotherapy can significantly prompt the Th2 to Th1 shift in both cells and cytokines of advanced NSCLC compared to chemotherapy alone.Moreover,thermochemotherapy also reduces the expression of VEGF,which may prevent the formation of new blood vessels in tumor tissue.

Objective To investigate the effect of sodium ozagrel injection on hemorheology, endothelin (ET) and nitrogen monoxidum (NO) of patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSEMI). Methods A total of 81 NSEMI patients were divided randomly into two groups: control group and experimental group. Isosorbide mononitrate, low molecular heparin and simvastatin were administered in the control group while sodium ozagrel was added to the experimental group apart from the above-mentioned drugs. The clinical effect of sodium ozagrel was observed. The changes in the indexes of hemorheology, ET and NO were analyzed. Results The clinical effect was significantly better in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). The level of ET was obviously lower after treatment than that in the experimental group and the control group before treatment (P<0.05). The level of NO was obviously higher after treatment than that in the experimental group and the control group before treatment (P<0.05). The changes of ET and NO in the experimental group post-treatment were more significant than those in the control group after-treatment (P<0.05). The level of hemorheology index after treatment was lower than that before treatment in the experimental group (P<0.05). High-shear rate of whole blood viscosity, platelet adherence rate, and fibrin as hemorheology indexes were lower after-treatment than those pretherapy in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Sodium ozagrel injection could affect hemorheology,ET and NO of patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction. Thefore, the therapeutic efficacy can be better if sodium ozagrel is added to the conventional therapy.

The paper analyses statistically the parameters of acceleration and heart rates in 905 aerobatic maneuvers of 88 sorties. The result indicates that the G levels, rates of increas as well as the duration of acceleration in tactical flight training are higher and longer than routine flight training. There is a significant correlation between the pilot's heart rates and the magnitude of G levels. The pilot's endurance for operating aircraft actively was 1.4G higher in average than that of the centrifuge runs. Af-ter anti-G physiological training, the endurance can be increased 2.24G in average by means of using anti-G suit and L-1 maneuver. The endurance was increased by an average of 1.18G as compare withthat prior to physiological training.

Objective To determine the biomechanical properties of anterior cruciate ligament allograft reconstructing posterior cruciate ligament in rabbits. Methods Based on the study of anatomy and biomechanics of normal rabbit cruciate ligaments, anterior cruciate ligament allografts were employed to reconstruct the posterior cruciate ligament in rabbits. The sterilized fresh-frozen allograft of bone-anterior cruciate ligament-bone were prepared and reserved for more than 14 days under -80 ℃. Twenty-four skeletally matured New Zealand white rabbits underwent a posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction on one knee randomly, the opposite knee was served as the paired control. Rabbits were sacrificed at 6, 12, 26 and 52 weeks respectively. Evaluations of the reconstructions and contralateral controls included the geometric, structural and material properties and rupture site. Results The mean length of the grafts at 52 weeks was 101% of the control (P=0.90), the cross-sectional area was 142%; the maximum load at 52 weeks was 83% of the control, the maximum elongation was 72%, the stiffness was 92%; the maximum stress at 52 weeks was 58% of the control, the maximum strain was 72%, and the modulds was 65%; the rupture site was all at the body part of the graft. The geometric, structural and material properties of the graft were gradually similar to those of the normal posterior cruciate ligament with the elapse of the time. Conclusion The biomechanical properpies of graft with similar material properties to normal posterior cruciate ligament following posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in rabbits was favourable. The similar material properties of graft to normal posterior cruciate ligament play the very important roles in the posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
