The incidence of gastric cancer has declined worldwide in the past decades. However, due to the large number of population in mainland of China, the absolute number of newly-diagnosed patients in this developing country is still very high. Most of the major clinical centers have established multi-disciplinary team, but the strategy in treating this life-threatening disease still needs to be optimized, including the precise preoperative staging by various techniques, perioperative chemotherapy for locally advanced diseases, role of minimally invasive surgical approaches in treating patients with different stages, translational research to fill the gap between clinical trials and basic research, as well as the individualized treatment for gastric cancer. We believe that the biological behaviors and molecular events of gastric cancer in eastern countries are different from that of Western countries, so the clinical evidences derived from Eastern countries need to be strengthened to enrich the unmet demands in the clinical practice in China.

Objective To explore the value of gastroendoscopy check-up early after non-surgical treatment of patients with gastroduodenal perfolation.Methods The patients suspected of perforated gastroduodenal ulcer on hospital admission underwent non-surgical treatment were enrolled.After cured clinically,performed gastroendoscopy at different time periods.Results Among 133 patients underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy,129 cases(97.0%)were diagnosed gastroduodenal ulcer,3 cases(2.3%)were diagnosed gastric carcinoma,1 case (0.8%)Was confirmed duodenal diverticulum,no compilcations occurred due to endoscopy.The 6 cases that had surgical indications had be implemented the early surgical treatment. Conclusions After non-surgical treatment of patient with gastroduodenal perforation,timely gsstroendoscopy can truly show pathologic changes with gastroduodenal perforation.So endoscopy is beneficial under condition appropriate time seleetion for confirmed the eliology of PGD,treatment promptly targeted etiology and understanding the mechanism healing the perforation as non-surgical treatment.

Objective: To synthesize 10-position schiff base derivatives of emodin and study the anti-tumor activity. Methods:The 10-position schiff base derivatives of emodin were synthesized through emodin reacting with ammonia derivatives in absolute alcohol with acetic acid as the catalytic agent. Their structures were characterized by 1 H-NMR and ESI-MS, and the anti-tumor activity on k562 cells was determined by MTT method. Results:Three 10-position schiff base derivatives were synthesized and the structures were confirmed, and the IC50 on k562 cells was 4. 5, 3. 8 and 2. 0 μmol·L-1 , respectively. Conclusion:The 10-position schiff base de-rivatives of emodin can improve the anti-tumor activity and druggability of the parent compound, which are worthy of further study.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the current situation of early diagnosis and intervention in 0-9 months old infants with hearing loss and analysis factors that will affect early diagnosis and intervention. METHOD: One hundred and eighty-six infants referred to the West China hospital from February 2014 to September 2014 were included. All 186 children were referred due to the fact that either they failed infant hearing screening or outer ear malformation. Early diagnosis and/or intervention were performed on those 186 children and their records of early diagnosis and intervention were analyzed. RESULT: Among the 186 infants, 167 (89.8%) were diagnosed with an average age at (4.0 ± 1.4) months. Among the 167 infants with final diagnosis, there were 31 (18.6%) infants diagnosed as conductive hearing loss (CHL), and 99 cases (59.3%) diagnosed as sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), among whom, there were 75 (44.9%) bilateral SNHL and 24 (14.4%) unilateral SNHL. There were 2 cases (1.20%) with SNHL on one side and atresia on the other side. 5 (2.99%) of all conductive hearing loss cases with unilateral atresia and 2 cases with auditory neuropathy (AN) were found. 33 infants (19.8%) were found to have normal hearing. 30.7% (23/75) infants diagnosed as bilateral SNHL and 8.3% (2/24) infants diagnosed as unilateral SNHL were fitted with hearing aids. The fitting rate in infants with bilateral SNHL with mild, moderate, severe to profound degrees were 0 (0/23), 24.0% (6/25), 66.7% (6/9), 61.1% (11/18) respectively. The average intervention age was (5.0 ± 2.1) months. CONCLUSION Although the early diagnosis and intervention situation in this study are very close to international standard, there are still infants without final diagnosis and infants with hearing loss without hearing aid fitting. Further studies and efforts to promote early diagnosis and intervention in infants with hearing loss are needed.

Objective To investigate the expression of proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-17(IL-17) and complement cleavage fragment C5a and the regulation effect of C5a on the expression of IL-17 during renal allograft rejection .Methods The frequency of IL-17+ T cell in peripheral blood and the expression of IL-17 in renal tubular epithelial cells (HK2) after C5a stimulation in renal transplant recipients were measured by flow cytometry and the changes of serum C5a level was detected by ELISA ,respectively .Im-munohistochemistry was applied to detect and compare the expression of IL-17 and the deposition of C5b-9 in normal renal tissues and renal tissues with allograft rejection .The difference of IL-17 expression in HK2 cells before and after the recombinant C5a stimulation was detected by immunocytochemistry .Results Both the percentage of IL-17+ T cells and serum C5a levels were sig-nificantly increased after the allogeneic renal transplantation .Compared with normal renal tissues ,both the deposition of C5b-9 and the IL-17 expression in renal tissues with allograft rejection was remarkably up-regulated ,which showed the positive correlation be-tween them .The expression of IL-17 in HK2 was obviously up-regulated by the recombinant C5a stimulation .Conclusion C5a may positively regulate the expression of IL-17 by tubular epithelial cells during the renal allograft rejection .

Objective: To study the safety and efifcacy of hematoma aspiration with manual compression for treating the patients of femoral pseudoaneurysm after cardiac catheterization under ultrasound guidance. Methods: A total of 27 patients suffering from post-catheterization iatrogenic femoral pseudoaneurysm were analyzed including 14 male and 13 female at the mean age of (53.5±11.4) years. The body, neck and blood supply area of pseudoaneurysm were located by ultrasonography; 18 gauge needle was punctured into the center of pseudoaneurysm to aspirate blood, meanwhile the neck and body of pseudoaneurysm were manually compressed to block blood supply for relevant artery under ultrasound guidance. Manual compression was conducted for 15 min followed by bandage compression; the patients were lie on the back and kept lower extremity straight for 12 hours. Ultrasonography was performed at 24 hours and 1 month after the operation in all patients respectively. Results: There were 24/27 (88.9%) patients having successful aspiration with manual compression at ifrst time; 2 (7.4%) having incomplete occlusion at ifrst time and the success was obtained by second time; 1 having incomplete occlusion due to coexisted femoral arteriovenous ifstula, while the body of pseudoaneurysm was obviously decreased. The overall success rate was 96.3% (26/27), no procedural complication occurred. Conclusion Ultrasonography guided hematoma aspiration with manual compression has been safe and effective for treating the patients of iatrogenic femoral pseudoaneurysm.
