1.Research progress in the surgical treatment of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;(9):487-490
Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the human endocrine system. A papillary thyroid microcarci-noma (PTMC) is usually defined as a papillary thyroid tumor that is less than 10 mm in diameter. The incidence of thyroid cancers has obviously increased in recent years. The surgical treatment of PTMC differs in China and overseas. Aside from conventional surgery, novel surgical methods, such as ultrasound-guided percutaneous ablation, have been used for the surgical treatment of PTMC. This arti-cle mainly discusses the research progress in the surgical treatment of PTMC.

Objective To investigate the association of the polymorphism of serotonin transporter gene linked polymorphic(5-HTTLPR) region with depression and its clinical symptoms in the Han Chinese.Methods PCR-based technique was used to genotype 5-HTTLPR in 64 patients with major depression and 67 unrelated controls,and the association between the polymorphism and clinical symptoms of depression was explored according to HAMD score.Results Fewer patients tended to be of L/L genotype(9.4%) than controls(19.4%),but there was no significant difference.Among women,fewer patients tended to be of L/L genotype(2.9%) than controls(13.9%),but there was no significant difference.The symptom analysis showed that depressive symptoms were significantly associated with 5-HTTLPR genotypes or alleles in the patients of L/L genotype,and that L allele had significantly lower depressive scores compared with those of other genotypes or alleles(P

Objective To observe the expression levels of IL-8,IL-4,TNF-α of neonatal mouse with systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS) treated by different doses of dexamethasone.Methods A total of 50 neonatal mice were randomly divided into five groups:blank control group,saline control group and treatment group A,B,C.The saline control group and treatment groups were established into SIRS models,treatment group A:a single high-dose of dexamethasone (2 mg/kg),subcutaneous injection (SC) ; treatment group B:two doses of dexamethasone (1 mg/kg,q1 2 h,total 2 mg/kg,SC) ; treatment group C:four doses of dexamethasone (0.5 mg/kg,q 1 2 h,total 2 mg/kg,SC) ;saline control group:saline of the same volume (0.4 ml/kg,SC).All mice were detected IL-4,IL-8,TNF-α by ELISA 72 hours after animal models being completed.Results The levels of IL-4,IL-8,TNF-α in saline control group and treatment group A,B,C were higher than those in blank control group respectively (P < 0.05,respectively).The levels of IL-4,IL-8,TNF-α in treatment group A,B,C were lower compared to those of saline control group respectively (P < 0.05,respectively),levels of TNF-α,IL-8 in treatment group B and C were lower than those of treatment group A(P < 0.05,respectively).There were no significant differences in the level of IL-4 among treatment group A,B,and C (P > 0.05).Conclusion Dexamethasone could lower the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-8,TNF-α and anti-inflammatory factor IL-8 of neonatal mouse with SIRS,and the effect of multiple low-doses of dexamethasone on SIRS is significantly better than a single high dose.

The response of murine lymphoreticular tissue with Special reference to regional lymph node after implantation of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells was investigated histologically and ultrastructurally. The tumor induced a vigorous histological response in both regional and nonregional lymph nodes that was proliferation of immunoblasts with enlargement of paracortical area in early stage and enlargement, fusion of germinal centers with an increased number of plasma cells in the medullary cords during the late stage of tumor growth.The results suggested that the response of lymph nodes might be mainly related to cell-mediated immune mechanism in the early stage and humoral immunity during the late stage of tumor growth. Regional lymph node gave reaction earlier and more vigorously in participating cell-mediated immunity, nonregional lymph node might be more significantly involved in humoral immunity. It was observed ultrastructurally that sinus histiocyte engulfed tumor cell in which the cooperation with lymphocyte might be necessary. The experimental results indicated that the increased number of immunoblast in paracortex may be considered as an indicator for antitumor cellmediated immunity with an important prognostic significance for host bearing tumor.

Objective To discuss the influence of nursing intervention on psychological state and glu-cose control of patients with diabetes mellitns before and after intensive treatment of insulin pump. Methods 120 patients who were going to receive intensive treatment of insulin pump were divided into the control group and the observation group with 60 patients in each group by simple random method.The two groups both re-ceivecl routine nursing. The observation group was given psychological intervention along with health education by application of progressive dominant content education method. The psychological state and glucose control of the two groups were compared by χ2 test and t test. Results The score of health knowledge and satisfaction degree with health education in the observation group were higher than those of the control group.The score of anxiety and depression in the observation group decreased more significantly and satisfaction rate of glucose control was higher than that of the control group after 14 days of insulin pump treatment. Conclusions Health education to patients with intensive treatment of insulin pump by application of progressive dominant content education method can make patients to master health knowledge easily.Psychological intervention can alleviate the negative emotion of these patients and facilitate better effect of insulin pump treatment.
9.Effects of hypothermia combined with sevoflurane on myocardial monophasic action potential and transmural dispersion of repolarization of ventricles in rabbits
Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 2010;30(7):780-783
Objective To investigate the effects of hypothermia combined with sevoflurane on myocardial monophasic action potential (MAP) and transmural dispersion of repolarization (TDR) of the left ventricle in rabbits in vitro. Methods Adult rabbits weighing 1.5-2.0 kg were sacrificed after heparinized and anesthetized.The hearts were immediately removed and perfused with K-H soluation saturated with 95%O2-5%CO2 at 37℃ in a Langendorff apparatus. Forty-eight isolated hearts were randomly divided into 6 groups ( n = 8 each): Ⅰ control group (group C), Ⅱ low concentration sevoflurane group ( group S1 ), Ⅲ high concentration sevoflurane group (group S2 ), Ⅳ hypothermia group (group H), Ⅴ hypothermia + low concentration sevoflurane (group HS1 ) and Ⅵ hypothermia + high concentraion sevoflurane (group HS2 ).Group C received continous perfusion. Group S1and S2 received perfusion with K-H solution saturated with 2.4% and 4.8% sevoflurane at 37 ℃ for 30 min respectively. Group H received perfusion with K-H solution at 30℃ for 30 min. Group HS1 and HS2 received perfusion with K-H solution saturated with 2.4% and 4.8% sevoflurane at 30℃ respectively.MAPs of epicardium, mid-myocardium and endocardium of the left ventricle were recorded. MAP duration at 90%repolarization(MAPD90)and TDR were calculated. Early after-depolarization,delayed after-depolarization and arrhythmia were also recorded. Results Compared with group C, MAPD90 of the 3 layers of ventricle was significandy prolonged, the incidence of arrhythmia increased in group H (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in TDR among all groups ( P>0.05). There was no interaction between sevoflurane and hypothermia (P>0.05), and it only showed that MAPD90 was prolonged by hypothermia (P <0.05 ). Conclusion Hypothermia combined with sevoflurane exerts no significant effects on myocardial MAP and TDR of ventricles in rabbits, and sevoflurane decreases the incidence of hypothermia-induced arrhythmia through inhibiting the prolongation of MAPD90.

This article reviewed the anticancer effect and mechanisms of Abrin from five aspects in several years, which were the molecular structure and toxicity of Abrin, the characteristics of Abrin in anticancer effect, the role of Abrin in inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, the mechanisms of Abrin induced apoptosis of cancer cells, the anticancer mechanisms of Abrin in enhancing immune function. And the application prospect of Abrin immunotoxin targeted therapy and nano preparation will be expounded in this article. It will be helpful to further research about application on Abrin. It will provide the scientific basis for discovering new drug targets of cancer.
