Chemoprevention is the use of natural or synthetic substances to prevent、suppress or to reverse the development of colorectal cancer.Aspirin and cox-2 inhibitor are the most effective preventive agents.However,the gastrointestinal and cardiovascular adverse effects limit the application.Recurrent adenomas can be markedly reduced by a combination of difluoromethylornithine and sulinclac and with few side effects.5-aminosalicylate and ursodeoxycholic acid have become the focus of inflammatory bowel disease.The double roles of folate need further study.Statins and EGFR inhibitors have some effects,which are in early clinical studies.The article reviews the new progress of chemoprevention of colorectal cancer.

Objective To study the clinical characters,diagnosis and principles of treatmentof acute pancreatitis during pregnancy.Methods Forty-eight cases of acute pancreatitis during pregnancy treated in the recent 8 years were retrospectively analyzed,38 cases had non-surgical treatment(of which 36 cases were cured);10 cases had surgical treatment to remove necrotic tissue and mainly termination of pregnancy.Results Most of the cases in this group had simple pancreatitis,which accounted for 64.58%(31/48).There were 5 cases of maternal(10.42%) death and three cases of fetal(6.25%) death,and all were in patients with severe pancreatitis.Fatality rate of pregnant women with severe pancreatitis was 29.41%.Conclusions Acute pancreatitis during pregnancy is a serious disease with low prevalence rate,but has high fatality rate,and is the primary cause of death in acute abdomen of pregnancy.Nonoperative treatment is the first choice of treatment in this condition.In severe cases,timely surgical intervention is warranted,and the surgical indications should not be altered because of the pregnancy.The safety of both the pregnant woman and the fetus must simultaneously be kept into mind during therapy.

Objective To investigate the relationship among age,menopausal status,serum 25 (OH)VD and skeletal metabolism index as PTH (Parathyroid Hormone),CA(Calcium),P (Phosphorus) and boned mineral density (BMD) of climacteric female in Xi'an.Methods 352 cases of healthy women at the age of 40~60 were collected who did routine examination in outpatient building of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2016 to April 2016.According to the results of skeletal density test,all subjects were divided into 3 groups as the normal group (T>-1),the reduction group (-2.5<T<-1),the osteoporosis group (T<-2.5).Electrochemiluminescent immunoassay (ECLIA) was used to detect levels of serum 25 (OH)VD,PTH,CA and P.Kruskal-Wallis test and chi-square test were used to analyze differences of age,serum 25(OH)VD,PTH,CA and P in different levels of bone mineral density groups.Results Compared with bone density normal group 2.24(2.18~2.29)mmol/L,serum CA levels of bone mineral density reduction group 2.27 (2.20 ~ 2.32)mmol/L and osteoporosis group 2.27(2.23~2.33)mmol/L were significantly higher (Z=9.669,P<0.01).Serum P levels of bone mineral density reduction group 1.15 (1.09~ 1.23)mmol/L and osteoporosis group 1.18 (1.09~ 1.25)mmol/L were obviously higher than bone density normal group,1.11 (0.99 ~ 1.23) mmol/L (Z =13.64,P< 0.01).Ages of osteoporosis group 54(50~57) years and bone mineral density reduction group 51 (47~ 54) years were significantly older than Bone density normal group 47(43~50) years (Z=73.08,P<0.01).The rate of menopause in osteoporosis group and bone mineral density reduction group were significantly higher than in bone density normal group (x2 =13.81,P< 0.01).There was no statistical difference in serum 25(OH)VD and PTH between groups.Conclusion This study found boned density of climacteric women is more likely correlated with age,menopause status and levels of serum CA and P.There was not enough evidence to prove that 25 (OH)VD and PTH have effect on skeletal density.Therefore,to monitor and detect the menopause status and levels of serum CA and P of climacteric female is critical for the prevention and treatment on osteoporosis of women.

Objective In order to find out influencing factors of corrosiveness of common chemical disinfectants used at present for medical instruments on varied metal material, and to offer scientific bases for working -out corresponding state standards. Methods Liquid instruments disinfectants containing chlorine and glutaraldehyde compound disinfectant were chose to take an example to study their corrosiveness to varied sorts and type s of the metal. Sing le related factors were researched by contrast test study in the process of dete rmining metal corrosion rate (R value, mm*a-1) citing from GB10124-88 me thod. Results Varied chemical disinfectants had different metal R valu e. R value was in fluenced by kinds of metal pieces, sorts of soaked vessel material, drying tempe rature, whether changing liquid disinfectants or not and water quality, while d ifferent capacity of balance measure had no effect on R value. Concl usi ons R value was affected by kinds and types of metal pieces and other factors. These fac tors should be considered sufficiently while determining or comparing corrosiven ess of chemical disinfectants to soaked metal.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is commonly used in treating liver diseases worldwide, especially in China. The advantages of using TCM for treatment of liver diseases include: protecting hepatocytes, inhibiting hepatic inflammation and antifibrosis in the liver. In this article, we introduce TCM herbal preparations from the Chinese materia medica (such as Fuzheng Huayu) that are typically used for the treatment of liver diseases. Literature surrounding the mechanisms of TCM therapy for treatment of liver diseases is presented and discussed. We propose that side effects of herbal compounds are often under-appreciated, and that more care should be taken in the prescription of potentially hepatotoxic medicines. Further, to deepen the understanding of TCM mechanisms, new techniques and methodologies must be developed. Future studies will lead to the enhancement of clinical outcomes of TCM. As complementary and alternative therapies, TCMs will play an expanding role in the future of liver disease treatment.
