OBJECTIVETo systematically evaluate the effectiveness of integrative medicine (IM) for preventing postoperative recurrence of primary hepatic carcinomas (PHC).

METHODSSuch databases as The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, Wan-fang Database were retrieved to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on preventing postoperative recurrence of PHC by IM. The retrieval period started from database establishment to June 2013. Literature screening, data extraction, and quality evaluation were performed by two reviewers strictly according to inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.2 Software.

RESULTSA total of 5 RCTs involving 367 patient cases were included. Results of Meta-analysis showed that the IM group was superior to the Western medicine (WM) group in the 1-, 2-, and 3-year recurrence rates (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONIn the prevention of postoperative recurrence of PHC, the effectiveness of IM was more significant, when compared with treatment of Western medicine.

ObjectiveTo study the necessity of treating prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc by active movement treatment. Methods68 patients with prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc were divided into the group of active movement treatment (31 cases) and the control group (37 cases). One year later, the recurrence rate and F wave motor nerve conduction velocity of two groups were compared. ResultsThere is a lower recurrence rate (P<0.05) and a faster F wave motor nerve conduction velocity (P<0.01) in the group of active movement treatment compared with the control group. F wave motor nerve conduction velocity of the group of active movement treatment is also faster than that of 1 year ago (P<0.001). Conclusions It is necessary for patients with prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc doing active movement.

OBJECTIVETo study the inhibitory effect and mechanism of Ganoderma lipsiense extract (GLE) on the growth of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line MDA-MB-231-HM in a mouse model.

METHODSThe mouse model of TNBC was established by subcutaneous injection of 1.5 x 10(6) of MDA-MB-231-HM cells into BALB/c-nu mouse. Twenty successfully modeled mice were divided into the GLE group and the negative control group according to random digit table, 10 in each group. GLE (0.2 mL 100 mg/mL) was peritoneally injected to mice in the GLE group, while equal dose of normal saline was peritoneally injected to mice in the negative control group. The medication was administered once per 3 days and discontinued after 45 days. The CD34 expression was detected using immunohistochemical assay for counting microvessels. Meanwhile, expressions of thrombospondin 1 (TSP-1) and cyclin D1 were detected using immunohistochemical assay.

RESULTSThe average weight was obviously lower in the GLE group than in the negative control group [(0.33 ± 0.16) g vs (0.68 ± 0.37)g, P < 0.05]. The tumor inhibition rate was 51.4% in the GLE group. The volume of transplanted tumor was obviously lesser in the GLE group than in the negative control group (P < 0.05). Results of immunohistochemical staining showed, the microvessel density (MVD) under every field was (20.7 ± 2.1), TSP-1 positive cell count was (66.2 ± 9.2), cyclin D1 positive cell count was (33.8 ± 16.4) in the GLE group, and they were 34.0 ± 2.0, 24.0 ± 6.6, and 168.2 ± 32.6, respectively in the negative control group. There was statistical difference in all indices between the two groups (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONGLE could inhibit malignant proliferation of tumor cells by suppressing angiogenesis of blood vessels in tumor tissues and regulating cell cycles, thereby inhibiting TNBC.

Objective To analyse the clinicopathological features of primary small intestine lymphoma(PSIL), and explore the relationship between clinical stage,histological findings,therapeutic modality and prognosis. Methods The clinical data of 34 cases of PSIL were collected,the pathohistological features and results of immunohistochemical examinations were obtained,and the follow-up findings were adopted for comprehensive analysis. Results Among these 34 cases of PSIL,abdominal pain or discomfort,gastrointestinal bleeding and abdominal mass were the predominant symptoms.PSIL mainly involved ileum,especially the bottom of ileum and ileocecal area.Among the 26 patients with follow-up for more than one year,the 1-year survival rate was significantly higher in patients without tumor perforation than those with tumor perforation(76.2% vs 20.0%)(P

In this paper, vegetative( vip83 ) and crystal(cry1Ac10 and cry1Ca) insecticidal protein genes from Bacillus thuri ngiensis were simultaneously electrospored into the plasmid-free strain BMB17 1. By the means of the specific P CR detection, the recombinant strains BMB2830-171 contained cry 1Ac10 and vip83, and BMB2 882-171 had cry1Ca and vip83 , were obtained respectively. Under the control of r ecombinant strains with one gene, bioassay of the synergism between vegetative V ip83 and crystal Cry1Ac10( or Cry1Ca )insecticidal proteins to three important Lepidopteran pests were done. The results, by analysis of statistic bio-so ft, showed that the synergia relation of vegetative Vip83 and crystal Cry1Ac10 i nsecticidal protein toxic to Heliothis armigera wascounteracted, while Plu tella xylostella and Spodotera exigua unobservable. There was no synergis tic action between Vip83 and Cry1Ca insecticidal proteins with Spodotera exigu a as tested insect. Bu t their cooperation to Heliothis armigera was minus, and the counterpart to Plutella xylostella plus, whose cotoxicity factor is 32.6. The experiment of bi-g ene genetic stability also suggested that the synergia effection had certain molecu lar genetic stability in the same cell. This performance can be contributed to construct high-effect and wide-spectrum engineered strain.
