Aim To study the mechanism of curcumin induced U251 cell apoptosis. Methods U251 cells were treated with 20～100?mol?L~ -1 curcumin for 24 h and the growth inhibition rates of U251 cells were measured with MTT method. MTT method was used to measure the caspase inhibitors effect on curcumin too. Cell apoptosis was inspected with flow cytometry (FCM) and observed using electron microscope. The protein levels of FAK in U251 cells were observed by SP immunocytochemistry. The activity of caspase-3 was measured by spectrofluorometry. Results Curcumin inhibited the proliferation of U251 cells,induced apoptosis of U251 cells. At the same time the protein levels of FAK in U251 cells decreased and the activity of caspase-3 increased significantly. The apoptosis of U251 cells was partially reversed by caspase inhibitors. Conclusion Curcumin induced apoptosis via inhibition of expression of FAK and activation of caspase-3.

Objective: To study the effect of enteral nutrition in the treatment of heart failure with hyponatremia.Methods: Forty patients sufferd from heart failure with hyponatremia were divided into two groups at random: control group(n=20) with regular therapy and treatment group(n=20) with enteral nutrtion on the base of regular therapy.Time intervals from hyponatremia to normal natremia of the two groups were compared.Results: Time interval from hyponatremia to normal in the treatment group was 5.30?1.82 days,and that in the control group was(8.85?2.44) days.Conclusion: The treatment with enteral nutrition can significantly shorten the clinical treatment time in heart failure with hyponatremia.

Objective To investigate and analyze the experience of planting and maintaining implantable venous access ports(IVAP) in management of post-operative breast cancer patients. Methods Breast cancer pa-tients receiving IVAP after surgery from Mar. 2011 to Jun. 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The relative com-plications were documented and summarized during implanting operation. Results 468 patients received IVAP, among whom 451 patients underwent piercing implantation via right internal jugular vein, 15 patients underwent piercing implantation via right subclavian vein, and 2 patients underwent piercing implantation via left internal jugular vein. The mean cathe tering leng th was 12.8 cm for patients receiving IVAP via right internal jugular vein, ranging from 12 to 15 cm. Thereinto, 30(6.4%) patients experienced shot-term complications including 16 cases of puncture difficulty, 5 cases of accidental arterial puncture, 2 cases of extravasation, 2 cases of blood aspiration dif-ficulty and 5 cases of arrhythmia. Three cases had long-term complications as the following:one case of catheter-re-lated infection, one case of catheter lost, and one case of incision rupture. Conclusions IVAP is a safe and effec-tive intravenous infusion device. It is crucial to choose individualized implanting access and length by professional surgical team.

Objective To observe the therapeutically effect of kangnao liquid on Pi3k mRNA and Aktm RNA ex-pressions in rats with focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods 180 male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups:sham operated group, model group, three kangnao liquid groups (high-dose, medium-dose and low-dose) and nimodipine group. Rats in kangnao liquid groups were administrated with kangnao liquid of 24 g/(kg · d), 12 g/(kg · d) and 6 g/(kg · d), orally once a day. Rats in nimodipine group were given nimodipine 1 mg/(kg · d). Rats in model group and sham group were treated with the same volume of distilled water for 7 days. The animal model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was established by a monofilament method from right internal carotid artery. The neurological evaluation was per-formed 24 h after reperfusion. The in situ hybridization was used to investigate the expression levels of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA in rats on 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 168 h after ischemia for 2 h. Results Compared with model group, neurological functions were improved significantly in kangnao liquid groups. The expression levels of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA were al-so significantly higher in kangnao liquid groups than those of model group. The expression levels of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA were significantly higher in nimodipine group than those of model group, but which were lower compared with those of high-dose and medium-dose kangnao liquid groups. Conclusion Kangnao liquid can protect nerve cells by enhancing the expressions of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA in rats with cerebral ischemia-reprefusion injury.

BACKGROUND:Pain is the significant cause for patients with early rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty. Continuous epidural analgesia and continuous femoral nerve block are effective analgesic methods after total knee arthroplasty, however, which method has better effects and less complications remains controversial. OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of countious femoral nerve block and continuous epidural analgesia after total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:We searched Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI, VIP, and WangFang. Meanwhile, we also searched conference papers and academic dissertation. The retrieval time was from database establishment to October 1, 2014. Studies of randomized control ed trials on countious femoral nerve block and continuous epidural analgesia after total knee arthroplasty were included. We evaluated the quality of these included studies and analyzed data by Cochrane Col aboration’s RevMan 5.0 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 12 randomized control ed trials (4 English articles and 8 Chinese articles) involving 680 patients were included. There were 343 patients with countious femoral nerve block and 337 patients with continuous epidural analgesia. Meta-analysis results revealed that no significant differences in visual analog scale scores were detected between the countious femoral nerve block and continuous epidural analgesia groups at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after total knee arthroplasty. However, compared with the continuous epidural analgesia group, countious femoral nerve block could decrease the incidences of nausea/vomiting (RR=0.36, 95%CI:0.21-0.63, P=0.003), urine retention (RR=0.08, 95%CI:0.04-0.16, P<0.001) and dizziness (RR=0.24, 95%CI:0.06-0.99, P=0.05). These results indicate that compared with epidural analgesia, countious femoral nerve block after total knee arthroplasty provided a strong analgesia effect, contributed to early functional training, had less adverse reactions, and was a safe and effective analgesic method.

BACKGROUND:Closed reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing can protect blood supply of fractured bone,decrease infection and promote bone healing.which is becoming the first choice for treating femoral shaft fracture However,it is difficult to conduct in closed reduction and keep stabilization of fractured bone.OBJECTIVE:To explore the curative effect of closed reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing in treating femoral shaft fracture with assist of rubber tourniquet 360°elastic fixation METHODS:From May 2008 to November 2009,18 patients(14 males,4 females;aged 18-65 years)with closed femoral shaft fracture were treated at the Dongguan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Body skin was protected by cloth,elastic rubber tourniquet was doubled and 360°wrapped around the fractured bone with the length of 10 cm from up and down.Supracondylar femur was reamed by Kernig-needle;fractured bone was dealt with countertraction and horizontal rotation.Another assistant compressed the fractured bone according to the displacement of fracture,which contributes to bone fracture reduetion and interlocking intramedullary nailing.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:All 18 patients were followed up postoperatively,no case was found with skim necrosis and damage of nerve and blood vessel.16 cases were bone union with excellent 15 cases,fine 1 case;2 cases were still being followed up.Callus was firstly found 1 month after operation and was obviously found in 3e months postoperatively The result suggested that the treatment of closed reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing with assist of rubber tourniquet360°elastic fixation is a simple and applicable approach.which reduces the interruption of blood supply for fractured bone and closed reduction gets good result,which reduces the chance of open reduction.
