Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a biological factor associated with gastric carcinoma. The prognosis of EBV-associated gastric car-cinoma (EBVaGC) is good because of its distinct clinicopathological features. The pathogenesis mechanism of EBVaGC is extensively in-vestigated at present. The development of molecular techniques has stimulated the research on the expression of EBV genes in EB-VaGC, thereby providing a theoretical foundation on the diagnosis, therapy, and prevention of EBVaGC. This article reviewed present research advances in EBV genes in EBVaGC.

Objective To explore the effects of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) on ventricular arrhythmias resulted from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in rats. Method Two hundred and forty male Wistar rats were randomized (random number) into sham operation group, AMI group and recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor (rhTNFR) fusion protein (Fc) group. Acute anterior wall myocardial infarction was produced in rats of AMI group with ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) , and the rats were just operated without ligation of LAD in sham group. The rats of Fc group were treated with rhTNFR-Fc (10 mg/kg), a TNF-α antagonist, 24 hours before LAD ligation. The original ECG was recorded 10 min before ligation and the ECGs of ventricular arrhythmias occurred spontaneously or induced by programmed electrical stimulation were recorded 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, 60 min, 3 h, 6 h and 12 hours after ligation. The protein levels and mRNA expressions of TNF-α in rats in different groups were detected with histochemistry and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. Results The expressions of TNF-α mRNA and levels of TNF-α protein markedly increased 10 min after infarction, reached the climax 20-30 min later, and then gradually returned to the original level in AMI group and Fc group. The time-windows of spontaneous and induced ventricular arrhythmias were consistent with the time-window of expressions of TNF-α mRNA and levels of TNF-α protein. Compared with AMI group, there were lower levels of TNF-α protein and lower incidence of ventricular arrhythmias in Fc group ( P < 0.05) , but there was no significant difference in TNF-α mRNA between two groups. There was no obvious change in TNF-α in rats of sham operation group. Conclusions The expressions of TNF-α mRNA and levels of TNF-α protein induced by AMI could contribute the initiation of ventricular arrhythmias.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Cangfu Congxian Decoction (CCD) on oxidative stress in granulosa cells of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients.
METHODSForty PCOS patients underwent in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) were assigned to the treatment group and the control group 1 according to random digit table, 20 in each group. Patients in the treatment group took CCD (200 mL, once in the morning and once in the afternoon) 2 months before IVF-ET, while those in the control group 1 took no Chinese medical decoction. Recruited were another 20 patients undergoing IVF-ET for tubal factors (as the control group 2). The clinical effect of IVF-ET were observed, including oocyte retrieval number, 2 pronuclear (2PN) fertilization rate, good quality embryo rate, clinical pregnancy rate, and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) induced transplantation cancel rate. The expression of relative oxygen species (ROS) in granulosa cells was detected using cell immunofluorescence combined with confocal microscopy and FCM.
RESULTSCompared with the control group 1, occyte retrieval number, 2PN fertilization rate, and good quality embryo rate increased in the control group 2 and the treatment group (P <0. 05). OHSS induced transplantation cancel rate decreased in the control group 2 (P < 0.05). Fluorescence intensity of ROS decreased in the treatment group and the control group 2, as compared with the control group 1 (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONCCD increased good quality embryo rate by down-regulating the expression of ROS protein in ovarian granulosa cells, and correcting in vivo oxidative stress.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA) interventions on volume status in hemodialysis patient. Methods Searched The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, EBsco, Wanfang Data, China Biology Medicine, China National Knowledge Infrastructure to collect clinical trials. The retrieval time was from database to July 15, 2016. The studies were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were critically appraised by two reviewers. Then the data of included studies were extracted. Meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.3 software and descriptive analysis. Results Ten clinical trials were included six random control trial, one controlled clinical trail, three longitudinal study, involving 2009 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the effectiveness of BIA interventions on volume management could improve blood pressure (P=0.001), protect the heart function(left ventricular mass index,P=0.002), compared with the clinical evaluation method, the BIA assessment of dry weight of hemodialysis patients could reduce hospitalization rate 14%. Descriptive analysis showed that BIA intervention volume management had certain advantages for the survival benefit of patients, but the current research was still few, had not yet come to a certain conclusion. Conclusions BIA can improve the management of the volume status and dry weight of hemodialysis patients, so as to it can improve the clinical benefit and survival benefit of patients.Better methods and guidelines for assessing DW and using BIA need to be developed.We propose that experienced HD nursing staff be trained in the use of the BIA to help monitor patient over hydration and approximate dry weight in consultation with the nephrologists responsible for the care of these patients so as to obviate excessive residual over hydration between nephrology reviews.
