Objective To compare the clinical value of CRP and LAC in the evaluating of diagnosis and the prognosis of se‐vere acute abdomen diseases in the elderly patients .Methods Experimental group:The blood of 92 elderly patients diagnosed with critical abdomen mass with infection and followed by surgery were collected .Then ,extracted serum was used to measure the levels of CRP and LAC ,and these patients were divided into 4 groups on base of the degree of infection:SIRS group ,sepsis group ,serve sepsis group and septic shock group .Control group:92 serums of healthy persons were selected to measure the levels of CRP and LAC .Results The CRP and LAC significantly increased in the experimental group ,when compared with the control group(P<0 .05) .The level of LAC raised with the increase severity of sepsis(P<0 .05) among groups of sepsis ,serve sepsis and sepsis with shock ,but the level of CRP had no statistical difference(P>0 .05) .Conclusion Both CRP and LAC of elderly patients diagnosed with critical abdomen mass with infection have important referential meaning .Furthermore ,the CRP has better predictability in the early stage of abdomen mass with infection .However ,to predict the severity of infection level ,LAC seems more sensitive .

BACKGROUND:Under certain conditions, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels can be differentiated into hepatocytes, which are an important source of liver cels. Moreover, multiple factors can be involved in this induced differentiation process. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the inducible effect of cholestatic serum on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels into hepatocytes. METHODS:Cholestatic animal model was prepared in rats to extract cholestatic serum. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels isolated from rats were divided into three groups and cultured in serum-free hepatocyte medium, serum-free hepatocyte medium plus cholestatic serum, serum-free hepatocyte medium plus normal serum, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The positive expression of alpha fetoprotein and keratin 18 and mass concentration of albumin were significantly higher in the serum-free hepatocyte medium plus cholestatic serum group than the other two groups (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that cholestatic serum has a certain inducible role in the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels into hepatocytes.

Arsenic trioxide albumin microspheres (As2O3-BSA-NS) were prepared by using methods of chemical cross-linking. The desirability function (DF), calculated according to the size (<1 microm) distribution, drug loading and drug trapping efficiency, was introduced as a total index for the microspheres formulation. Four factors, inculding W/O ratio, decentralization speed, BSA concentration and stirring stabilization time, were selected and arranged in an orthogonal experimental table. The release characteristic was studied by the drug release experiment in vitro. The four factors affected DF differently. Decentralization speed behaved as the maximum (P<0.01), followed by BSA concentration (P<0.05) and the W/O ratio dose (P<0.05). Stirring stabilization time did not influence DF (P>0.05). The release experiment in vitro showed that As2O3 in As2O3-BSA-NS was released more slower than pure As2O3. It was concluded that regular As2O3-BSA-NS may be prepared by the methods of chemical cross-linking, which was optimized by orthogonal experimental analysis of different factors, and the microspheres can release As2O3 slowly.

AIM:To optimize formulation of Xiao'er Magan Orally Disintegrating Tablet by central composite design-response surface methodology. METHODS:By two factors and five levels central composite design,independent variables were the proportion of optimized microcrystalline cellulose 50 and mannitol and the pressure,while disintegrating time and tensile strength were dependent variables. Binary linear and quadratic models were used to estimate the relationship between the dependent and the indepedent variables,and to delineate response surface method and overlay contour plots in order to select the optimal formulations. RESULTS:The binomial regression equation were TS =0. 096 88X1 + 0. 027 6X1X2(r = 0. 759),DT = 9. 845 4X1 -63. 196X2 + 40. 092 9X22 (r = 0. 838) which indicated the quantitative relationship between the factors and the evaluation indexes was characterized. The optimal formulation were the ratio of microcrystalline cellulose 50 and mannitol in the range of 0. 35 and 0. 6,and the pressure was in the range of 6 and 8 KN. CONCLUSION:The optimized formulation validation is close to the estimated value,indicating that the method has a good predictability and reliability.

Objective To investigate the expression of circulating tumor cells (CTC) in peripheral blood of patients with different stages of colorectal cancer (CRC), and to evaluate its significance in early diagnosis of colorectal cancer metastasis. Methods Sixty patients with CRC (42 inⅡ-Ⅲstage and 18 in IV stage ) and 30 patients with benign rectal disease were recruited from January 2014 to December 2015. The CTC in peripheral blood was purified with Immunomagnetic Separation Technologie, and detected by immunofluorescence in situ hybridization (imFISH). The serum levels of CEA were detected by electrochemiluminescence method meanwhile. The correlation between CTC and CEA was analyzed. Results CTC positive rates in CRC patients were significantly higher than those in benign rectal disease controls. CTC positive rates inⅣstage were significantly higher than those inⅡ-Ⅲ stage. The expression of CTC was significantly correlated with CEA (r = 0.6652, P < 0.01). Conclusions The expression of CTC in CRC patients is significantly higher than that in benign rectal disease control group. It is closely related to clinical stages. Detection of peripheral blood CTC has important clinical significance in the early diagnosis of CRC metastasis.
