Exosome is a self-secreted phospholipid bilayer nanovesicles, and has shown great potential in drug delivery field due to the important advantages of low immunogenicity and homologous targeting. Phototherapy, mainly includes photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), utilize light to activate photoactive drug for tumor cell killing. The advanced therapeutic strategy shows low toxic side-effect and non-invasion precise advantages, and thus has made great progress in tumor treatment over the past few years. Therefore, using exosomes as a drug delivery system to deliver phototherapeutic agents can improve therapeutic performances with a reduced side-effect, and further enhance their application potential for clinical tumor therapy. This review focus on the rising cross-subjects field involving exosomes and phototherapy, and mainly introduce the research progress and relative case of exosomes-based delivery system for cancer phototherapy. Additionally, the advantages and challenges of exosome-based phototherapy are also discussed and proposed.

Objective To investigate the effects of three procedures for hysterectomy.Methods The clinical characteristics of 370 cases who respectively received hysterectomy by total transabdominal hysterectomy(TAH,150 cases),transvaginal hysterectomy(TVH,120 cases),or laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy(LAVH,100 cases)were analyzed and their effects and outcomes and the expenses for medical treatment were compared from 2000 January to 2005 December.Results The average operation time of TAH,TVH and LAVH was(78?28) minutes,(102?35)minutes,(119?28)minutes respectively.The average operation time of TAH was significantly shorter than that of TVH and LAVH groups(P＜0.01).The volume of hemorrhage during operation in TAH group was less than that of other two groups significantly[TAH(53?29)ml,TVH(110?35)ml,LAVH(93?50 )ml](P＜0.01).The average time of bowel function recovery in TAH group[(42?7)hours]was significantly longer than that of TVH[(23?5)hours]or LAVH[(25?4) hours]groups(P＜0.01).The average hospital stay after opera- tion in TAH[(8.9?1.1)days]group was significantly longer than that of TVH[(5.7?2.4)days]or LAVH [(6.3?1.9)days] groups(P＜0.01).The average expenses for medical treatment in LAVH[(7273?938)yuans] group was significantly more than that of TAH[(5594?308)yuans]or TVH[(5450?167)yuans]groups(P＜0.01).But the lesion and the complication after operation of three groups had no difference.Conclusion Different procedures for total hysterectomy have their own advantage and disadvantage.The operation procedure must take ac- count of the economy,echnique of medical treatment and the condition of the hospital.

Shu-Xue-Ning (SXN) injection was used as study subject in order to explore the feasibility of pharmacodynamics experiment of Phase 0 clinical trial in Chinese materia medica (CMM).This paper tried to establish key-technique standards which fit to the evaluation on CMM phase 0 (early) clinical evaluations.According to the established research methods,this research selected volunteers and assured low dose SXN injection inside their body.And then,serum before and after medication were collected for the HAEC in vitro experiment.Blood sample of the clinical dosage was used as control to verify the tendency consistency of pharmacodynamics in low dose and clinical dose.The results showed that in the H2O2 inducing HAEC damage experiment,low dose SXN injection can affect the cell proliferation,protect the shape of cells,reduce the release of ion owing to cell damages and influence the secretion in cells.Complete-sequence RNA gave differential multiterm expression before and after the low dose.It was concluded that compared with the clinical group,low dose medication had similar metabolic tendency.The pharmacodynamics experiment of phase 0 CMM clinical trial is feasible.

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and mechanisms of ?-sodium aeacine in treating chest trauma.Methods: One hundred and sixty patients with chest trauma were randomly divided into two groups: the control group and the study group.The control group was treated by conventional method,while in addition to the conventional treatment,the study group was also treated with ?-sodium aeacine,10 mg of ?-sodium aeacine in 250 ml 10% glucose solution for intravenous drip,30 to 40 drops/min,twice a day for 10 days(one therapeutic course).Results: The effective and total effective rates of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group(the effective rate(62.5% vs.22.5%) and the total effective rate(97.5% vs.66.3%),both P

The obese children are increasing at a surprisingly high annual rate of 9.1 percent in China.Meanwhile children are lack of health consciousness and self-protection,thus obese children are more vulnerable towards obesity.Since parents are responsible for their children's daily lives and behaviors,the health education of obesity should be started with those parents with obese children.This paper calls to carry out health education aimed at parents of obese children through multiple means such as community health services,taking advantage of public media and establishing specific clubs,in order to effectively control the increase of obese children.

Objective:To explore the influence of liquid for post-operative irrigation on the effect of ESS.Method:192 cases with chronic sinusitis and/or nasal polyps of groupIIstageII who had undergone the ESS from September,1998 to June,1999 and completed a3-month follow-up were divided randomly into 3 groups to accept 3 different kinds of irrigation liquid.The evaluation of curative effect was according to the index of HaiKou ESS-97.Result:The curative effect of Herba Houttuyniae group was better than the other two.Conclusion:The post-operative care is important and the irrigation liquid can affect the effect of ESS.
