Background and purpose:Bladder carcinoma is the most common tumor in the urogenital system in China. For patients with non-invasive bladder cancer, intravesical therapy is an important part of treatment after complete transurethral resection (TURBt). Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) remains the most effectively used immune agent, and epirubicin (EPI) has been reported to have an improved antitumor activity and high remission rate. However, the results differed significantly from study to study. To compare the efficacy and treatment-induced side effects of intravesical epirubicin versus BCG on postoperative recurrence of non-invasive bladder carcinoma, we completed a meta-analysis of the published literature. Methods:According to the criteria in the paper, we retrieved published comparative studies on intravesical epirubicin versus BCG for non-invasive bladder carcinoma. Data were extracted from each identified paper and Revman4.2 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:6 trials including 1 288 patients were eligible according to the eligibility criteria. Of 657 cases that were treated with epirubicin and 631 with BCG, recurrence occurred in 253 and 184 respectively. Pooling data of a meta-analysis indicated that BCG statistically reduced the incidence of tumor recurrence (Peto OR=1.60, 95%CI=[1.26, 2.03], P=0.000 1). With regard to tumor progression, BCG was also statistically superior to epirubicin (Peto OR=1.70, 95%CI=[1.16, 2.49], P=0.006). 5 studies reported the comparison on main local side effects in terms of hematuria, cystitis or irritative symptoms. Combined results showed that the incidence of hematuria (Peto OR=0.47, 95%CI=[0.35, 0.62], P

This study reported the analysis of plasma phospholipid metabolism of the rats and the pathological biomarkers between the type 2 diabetes model control group (MC) and the normal control group (NC). SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: NC and MC. To investigate state of plasma metabolite profiling in normal body, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) model group using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS which was used as analysis tool in this research. The compounds were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS based on MS/MS fragment ions information, element composition in MassLynx 4.1 and the Lipid Maps database. The sign of two groups of samples in specific markers for screening was through a software package in R software (BioMark software). The results show that the pathological markers were mainly phosphatidylcholine (PC) and triglycerides (TG); the 2-acyl PC in the MC group was less more obviously than that in the NC group; high carbon number and high degree of unsaturation of the TG was reduced under the condition of type 2 diabetes. In the state of type 2 diabetes, metabolic changes occurred in rat plasma phospholipids obviously, which had a close relationship with the occurrence and development of T2DM.
