Objective To study the morphological characteristics of blood-tumor barrier(BTB)model of glioma in vitro. Methods After C 6 glioma cells/endothelia ECV 304 co-cultured mixed or in Transwell or on both sides of membrane of Transwell,the morphological characters of fenestra of endothelial cells,the junction between ECV 304 cells,the interface between C 6 cells and ECV 304 cells,and perivascular-end-feet of C 6 cells were observed under transmission electron microscope(TEM)and scanning electron microscope(SEM),and compared to BTB in 4 cases with human brain glioma. Results ECV 304 cells grown to confluence were not fenestrated,but with fomation of tight junction between ECV 304 cells after co-cultured with C 6 cells mixedly,in Transwell or on both sides of membrane of Transwell;It was not found that pseudopodia from C 6 cells as co-cultured in Transwell reaching into pore of Transwell;C 6 cells co-cultured on both sides of membrane of Transwell often sticked out to the ECV 304 cells,but with no pseudopodia from C 6 cells surrounded ECV 304 cells of penetrated the endothelia clefts.Perivascular-end-feet of C 6 cells were not integrant.These characters were similar to BTB in human brain glioma.Conclusion C 6 glioma cells/endothelia cell ECV 304 co-cultures on both sides of membrane of Transwell may simulate the morphological characters of BTB in vivo in some degree.;

Methods: The model was established by methods of active immunity and gastrogavage with bile and hot water. The method of acetic acid writhing was used. Results: (ZSX) had actions of promoting the blood flow of gastric mucosa, increasing in pH, inhibiting inflammatory cell infiltration, glandular atrophia and atypical hyperplasia. It also had action of alleviating pain. There were no toxic and side effects. Conclusion: (ZSX) had remarkably preventive and therapeutic effects on atrophic gastritis of rats.

Objective To explore the relationship between immunohistochemistry of LN,FN,p53 and TIMES in human brain glioma(BG). Methods Transmission electronic microscope(TEM) and immunohistochemistry were used to investigate the morphological characteristics of micrangiums in BG and the expression of LN,FN,p53 in BG and intracranial metastatic tumors. Results 1.It was found that base laminas beneath endothelial cell with locally or extensively thickened were intact and continuous in BG.The increasing thickness of BM was consistent with the staining of LN and FN and related to p53 immunostaining.BM of p53-protein positive cases grew thicker than that of p53-protein negative ones.2.Micrangiums BM in all BG were positive for LN and FN.The more malignant the BG was,the stronger the LN and FN staining became and the thicker the blood vessel walls grew(P0.05).Conclusion One of the reasons that BMs in TIMES in BG thicken may be the over expression of LN and FN of brain micrangium endothelial cells.Also,the influence of p53 on TIMES is associated with the functional state of endothelial cells.Micrangiums endothelial cells may be play a role in regulating TIMES.

Objective: To investigate the nutritional status and its relationship with the indexes of physical function and physical capacity among primary and middle school students in Xiamen, so as to provide statistical support for improving their nutritional status and physical health. Methods: A total of 2 752 primary and middle school students aged between 6 and 18 years old were selected in Xiamen. They were divided into malnutrition group, normal group and overweight and obesity group according to the national standards. Statistical analysis was carried out by chi square test, Kruskal wallis test and partial correlation analysis. Results: The prevalence of malnutrition among primary and secondary school students in Xiamen was 8.4%(231), the prevalence of overweight and obesity was 24.2%(667), and the prevalence of overweight and obesity among boys(31.4%) was higher than girls( 17.0 %).The distribution of nutritional status between different ages was statistically significant ( χ 2=40.43, P <0.05). On the lung activity index, both boys and girls were shown to be overweight and obesityConclusion The prevention and control situation of overweight between primary and secondary school students in Xiamen city, is more serious. Overweight and obesity are related to decline in physical function and physical fitness. Nutritional status should be paid more attention for physical fitness improvement among students.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and safety of the medial approach "four-step method" in the laparoscopic mobilization of splenic flexure. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed. Clinical data of 157 colorectal cancer patients undergoing the medial approach "four-step method" in the laparoscopic mobilization of splenic flexure at Gastrointestinal Surgical Department of Guangdong Provincial People′s Hospital from July 2015 to June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Of 157 cases, 17 were transverse colon cancer, 94 were descending colon cancer, 25 were sigmoid cancer and 21 were rectal cancer; 89 were male and 68 were female; mean age was (61.8±10.3) years and mean body mass index was (23.2±3.7) kg/m². The medial approach "four-step method" in the laparoscopic mobilization of splenic flexure was performed as follows: (1) The root vessels were treated with the "provocation" technique to expand the Toldt′s gap. This expansion was extended from the lateral side to the peritoneum reflex of left colonic sulcus, from the caudal side to the posterior rectal space, and from the cephalad side to the lower edge of pancreas. (2) The left colonic sulcus was mobilized, converging with the posterior Toldt′s gap. Mobilization was carried out from cephalad side to descending colon flexure, freeing and cutting phrenicocolic ligament and splenocolic ligament, and from caudal side to peritoneal reflex. (3) Gastrocolic ligament was moblized. Whether to enter the great curvature of stomach omentum arch when the gastrocolic ligament was cut, that was, whether to clean the fourth group of lymph nodes, should be according to the tumor site and whether serosal layer was invaded. (4) Transverse mesocolon was moblized and transected at the lower edge of the pancreatic surface, merging with the posterior Toldt′s gap, and from lateral side to lower edge of the pancreatic body, merging with the lateral left paracolonic sulcus. Safety and short-term clinical efficacy of this surgical procedure was summarized. Results: All the patients completed this procedure. During operation, 3 cases were complicated with organ injury, including 1 case of colon injury, 1 case of spleen injury and 1 case of pancreas injury. No operative death and conversion to open surgery was found. The average operation time was (147.5±35.1) minutes, the average intra-operative blood loss was (40.8±32.7) ml and the average number of harvested lymph node was (16.1±5.8), including (4.0±2.3) of positive lymph nodes. The first exhaust time after surgery was (41.3±20.6) hours, the fluid intake time was (1.5±1.3) days, the postoperative hospital stay was (5.2±2.3) days. Eight (5.1%) cases developed postoperative complications, and all were improved and discharged after conservative treatments. According to the TNM classification system, postoperative pathology revealed that 31 patients were stage I, 51 were stage II, 53 were stage III, 22 were stage IV. Conclusion The medial approach "four-step method" is safe and feasible, which can effectively decrease the operation difficulty of the laparoscopic mobilization of the splenic flexure.

Objective:To understand the current practice of preoperative bowel preparation in elective colorectal surgery in China.Methods:A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted through wechat. The content of the questionnaire survey included professional title of the participants, the hospital class, dietary preparation and protocol, oral laxatives and specific types, oral antibiotics, gastric intubation, and mechanical enema before elective colorectal surgery. A stratified analysis based on hospital class was conducted to understand their current practice of preoperative bowel preparation in elective colorectal surgery.Result:A total of 600 questionnaires were issued, and 516 (86.00%) questionnaires of participants from different hospitals, engaged in colorectal surgery or general surgeons were recovered, of which 366 were from tertiary hospitals (70.93%) and 150 from secondary hospitals (29.07%). For diet preparation, the proportions of right hemicolic, left hemicolic and rectal surgery were 81.59% (421/516), 84.88% (438/516) and 84.88% (438/516) respectively. The average time of preoperative dietary preparation was 2.03 days. The study showed that 85.85% (443/516) of surgeons chose oral laxatives for bowel preparation in all colorectal surgery, while only 4.26% (22/516) of surgeons did not choose oral laxatives. For mechanical enema, the proportions of right hemicolic, left hemicolic and rectal surgery were 19.19% (99/516), 30.04% (155/516) and 32.75% (169/516) respectively. Preoperative oral antibiotics was used by 34.69% (179/516) of the respondents. 94.38% (487/516) of participants were satisfied with bowel preparation, and 55.43% (286/516) of participants believed that preoperative bowel preparation was well tolerated. In terms of preoperative oral laxatives, there was no statistically significant difference between different levels of hospitals [secondary hospitals vs. tertiary hospitals: 90.00% (135/150) vs. 84.15% (308/366), χ 2=2.995, P=0.084]. Compared with the tertiary hospitals, the surgeons in the secondary hospitals accounted for higher proportions in diet preparation [87.33% (131/150) vs. 76.78% (281/366), χ 2=7.369, P=0.007], gastric intubation [54.00% (81/150) vs. 36.33% (133/366), χ 2=13.672, P<0.001], preoperative oral antibiotics [58.67% (88/150) vs. 24.86% (91/366), χ 2=12.259, P<0.001] and enema [28.67% (43/150) vs. 15.30% (56/366), χ 2=53.661, P<0.001]. Conclusion:Although the preoperative bowel preparation practice in elective colorectal surgery for most of surgeons in China is basically the same as the current international protocol, the proportions of mechanical enema and gastric intubation before surgery are still relatively high.

Objective To describe the distribution of medication costs of rheumatoid arthritis patients, and to analyze the factors that may affect the costs. Methods Data were obtained from a 12-month retrospective investigation of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) across China. Department of Rheuma-tology of 18 hospitals were randomly selected. The data about their social conditions, clinical conditions, medications associated with RA such as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), non -steroidal anti -inflammtory drugs (NSAIDs), steroids, biologic agents were collected, and the costs of drugs were calculated. A non-parameter test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed. Results Six hundred and forty six patients were enrolled into the study, 435 completed data were chosen for analysis. The results demonstrated that the average costs per patient for medications in the past year was 8018 . The total medication costs were further subdivided into the following parts: DMARDs, (represented 20% of the total costs), biologic drugs (49%), NSAIDs (4%), herbal drugs (22%), steroids (1%). Data analysis showed that patients with higher education and higher incomes, with medical insurance,better health function status and outpatients paid more on DMARDs. Extra-articular manifestations increased the odds of the high-cost group (OR: 2.180, 95%CI: 1.335～3.558, P=0.002), while poor health function status increased the probability of paying high costs (OR: 1.373, 95%CI: 1.012～1.863, P=0.041). Conclusion High medication costs in RA do exist in RA patients. The costs of medication is associated with health function status and the presence of extra-articular manifestations.
