Chemokines are major regulators of cell transformation and adhesion.Recent study has demonstrated that CXCR7 can bind to CXCL11 and CXCL12 with high affinity,and the activated CXCR7 may influence tumor invasion and metastasis by regulating extracellular matrix (ECM) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and other signal transduction pathways.Therefore,in-depth study of the molecular mechanisms of CXCR7 in tumor invasion and metastasis may provide a more effective theoretical basis for tumor treatment.
5.Diagnosis And Treatment of Spontaneous Rupture of Primary Liver Cancer (Clinincal Analysis Of 20Cases
Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University(Medical Sciences) 1981;0(03):-
in this Article 20 Cases of Spontaneous rupture of primary liver Cancer Adimitted and treated in our hospital in the past 23 years (1956-1979) Are Analyed. of these 19 Were Male And 1 female, their Age ranged from 20 to 65 years, 75 per Cent Were 30 to 40 years of Age, The incidence Was 8 per Cent.Diagnosis, differential diagnosis and the mechanism of Spontaneous ruptnre of primary liver Cancer as Well as the Cause of Erroneous diagnosis are discussed in detail.The Clinical records revealed that 50 Per Cent of the Patients Who deid Within one month. After the rupture Should be reseued promptly, 2 Cases Survived 4 and 19 months respectively After the ligation of he patic artery, in order to prolong the Patients. life, it is Considered positive to excute ligation of hapatic Artery to stop bleeding And prevent the progress of Cancer.

Objective To study the validity of furosemide test for predicting the hematoma enlargement in pa- tients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Four hundred fifty-one patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were diagnosed using CT after oneset of the disease and 24 h reexamined 24 h after.The incidence of enlarged hematoma was evaluated by comparison the baseline and 24 h CT scanning.Furosemide(20 mg iv)was ad- ministered and blood pressure was measured 30 min after furosemide.Results The decreasing level of MAP after furosemide was significantly inversely related with incidence rate of hematoma enlargement{ r=-0.94,t=58.4,P 10 mmHg as the cut-off point,with the rate of hematoma enlargement as being 6.4 %,MAP decreased≤10 mmHg was associated with increases in prevalence of hematome to 33.2 %(?~2=51.82, P

Objective To study the therapeutical effect of glutathione(GL),a powerful antioxidant on the symptoms and ECG in patients with coronary heart disease and its mechanisms.Methods Eighty-five subjects with coronary heart disease were recruited(45 male and 40 female).The patients were randomized to receive GL (240 mg,ivgtt,qd,for 14 days,n=44)on the top of conventional treatment(aspirin+?-blocks+ACEI)or conven- tional treatement alone(control,n=41).The serum MDA,SOD,NO levels were determined.Electrocardio- graphy(ST stage,T wave)was examined.Results GL significantly improved clinical symptoms scores(2.0+0.5 vs control:1.5+0.5,P
8.Establishing a health security system for people in rural areas
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 1998;0(11):-
The authors first describe the current situation of cooperative medical care in China, pointing out that due to low levels of guarantee, difficulties in fundraising and insufficient government reimbursement, cooperative medical care in rural areas have come across many hardships. It is, therefore, imperative to set up as soon as possible a health security system for people in rural areas. Firstly, it is necessary to break up the dual social security structure of urban and rural areas and set up a model with transitional goals based on the actual situation of the country. Secondly, it is suggested that security taxes begin to be collected, bringing the health security for people in rural areas into line with the social security framework so as to promote the health security for people in rural areas without lowering the level of social security in urban areas.

Sepsis is a serious problem among the elderly population as its incidence and mortality rates dramatically increase with advanced age. More importantly, the elderly has increased vulnerability to developing sepsis due to diminished physiologic reserve, presence of comorbidities, immunosenescence and frequent instrumentation. Those who survive severe sepsis are more likely to have irreversible organ damage, cognitive impairments, and diminished overall function. Additionally, elderly patients with sepsis often present with atypical symptoms which further complicates and potentially delays diagnosis. Although sepsis is a serious life-threatening disease, recognition of this problem is very low compared to other age-associated diseases. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to analyze the challenges facing this cohort and how to optimize their management.

Fluid overload is frequently found in patients with intravenous fluid resuscitation,and recent studies showed the potential risks of fluid overload for organ failure and mortality.To avoid volume overload and its associated complications,strategies to identify fluid responsiveness are necessary.Apart from the amount of fluid utilized for resuscitation,the type of fluid used also impacts patient outcome.In recent years,there has also been an increasing focus on comparing various resuscitation fluids with respect to both benefits and risks.In this article,through analyzing the impact of fluid overload on patient outcome,we describe the differences in static and dynamic estimates of fluid responsiveness,and review the current literature regarding choice of intravenous fluids for resuscitation in critically ill patients to help clinicians to make appropriative decision on intravenous fluids prescription and to optimize patient outcome.
