目的 通过复制人肝癌细胞株HepG2裸鼠皮下移植瘤模型，观察绿茶提取物表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯（EGCG）干预对HepG2移植瘤新生血管生成的影响。 方法 瘤体接种复制HepG2移植瘤模型，荷瘤裸鼠20只随机分组，实验组给予EGCG溶液每日20 mg/（kg·只），腹腔注射3周，对照组给予等量灭菌注射用水3周，末次用药24 h，后处死裸鼠，剥离移植瘤。常规病理切片观察移植瘤组织结构；逆转录-聚合酶链式反应和免疫组织化学法检测移植瘤缺氧诱导因子-1α（HIF-1α）、血管内皮生长因子（VEGF）mRNA及蛋白表达，并通过检测CD34表达计数瘤组织微血管密度（MVD）。 结果 组织病理学观察实验组移植瘤见大量坏死区，瘤体内血管数量明显少于对照组；实验组HIF-1α、VEGF mRNA及蛋白表达水平比对照组均明显下调（P＜0.05），实验组MVD比对照组明显下降（P＜0.05）。 结论 EGCG可抑制荷瘤裸鼠HepG2移植瘤新生血管生成。
ObjectiveTo study the epidemiologic characteristics of primary liver cancer (PLC). MethodsThe literatures about regional distribution and etiologic epidemiology of PLC were reviewed. Results PLC was mainly distributed on caostland in the south-east of China. The main cause of PLC was hepatitis B virus, aflatoxin and contamination of drinking water. Otherwise, PLS was also related with lack of some trace element, sex horemones, genealogy cause and so on.Conclusion The genesis of PLC was by multiple factors.
Objective To investigate ultrasonography features of primary thyroid non-Hodgkin lymphoma (PT-NHL). Methods Ultrasonographic data of patients with PT-NHL(PT-NHL group) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (control group) who were treated in our hospital from May. 2002 to Jul. 2014 were collected and analyzed. Results Compared with control group, enhancement of posterior echoes was more common in PT-NHL group (P=0.000), and difference values of transverse diameters, anteroposterior diameters, and sagittal diameters of more involved lobe to another lobe were bigger(P < 0.05), but echo pattern of gland, ultrasonographic classification of lesions, classification of vascularity, and condition of cervical lymph nodes were found no statistical difference(P > 0.05). In patients with nodular-type lesions(37 patients in PT-NHL group and 12 patients in control group), length of nodule lesions was larger in PT-NHL group (P=0.000), but there was no statistical difference in shape, boundary, orientation, and echoes of nodules between 2 groups(P > 0.05). In Pulsed-Wave(PW) Doppler between 2 groups(17 patients in PT-NHL group and 4 patients in control group), vascular resistance index(RI) was higher in PT-NHL group than those of control group (P=0.024). Conclusion The enhancement of posterior echoes was a feature in ultrasonography images of PT-NHL. Asymmetrical volume, high value of RI, and big nodule might link to PT-NHL, but diffuse heterogeneous echo with hypoechoic lesions might result in wrong diagnosis as PT-NHL.
Objective To summarize the role of the relationship between liver cancer and cellular immunological function, and the role of immune therapy in clinical application. Methods To analyze the relationship between liver cancer and cellular immunological function, and the present research situation of immune therapy for liver cancer in clinical application retrospectively via review the related domestic and foreign literatures. Results The cellular immune dysfunction existed in all liver cancer patients. The state of body’s cellular immunological function is closely related with the arising and development of liver cancer, and the lowness of cellular immunological function is an important factor of hepatocellular carcinoma hard to cure or recurrence and metastasis. Immune therapy plays an important role in the treatment of liver cancer by adjusting the body’s cellular immunological function. Conclusions Liver cancer is closely related with the body’s cellular immunological function. Immune therapy is expected to offer a new way for the treatment of liver cancer, which can also be used as an important auxiliary treatment way.
Objective To study the efficiency of percutaneous acetic acid injection (PAI) or percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) in the treatment of primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC). Methods Seventeen and 24 patients with PHC were treated, respectively by PAI or by PEI in our hospital. According to hepatic function test, soluble intereukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R), AFP, biopsy and size of tumor, the evaluation was made.Results Effective rate was 88.2% in PAI group and 87.5% in PEI group, respectively. There was no obvious influence to sIL-2R in serum in the two groups (Ｐ＞0.05). Obvious differences in impairment of hepatic functions between PAI and PEI groups were found (Ｐ＜0.01), it also showed that smaller amounts of acetic acid and less puncture frequency were required for the treatment than that of ethanol. Conclusion PAI is superior to PEI in the treatment of those patients who are complicated with cirrhosis or other vital disease.
42 cases of hyperthyroidism had been operated from 1990-1993.In the preoperative treatment,antithyroid drugs were used togather with thyroxine.Some advantages have been observed,which are better than drugs were used togather with thyroxine.Some advantages have been observed,which are better than thoes of the usual preoperative preparaton.①Patient can be prepared to a complete euthyroid state.②The vascularity of the gland can be reduced to a least degree so that the operative risk of bleeding is will small.③The serum thyroid hormone will not be raised,therefore no thyroid crisis occurs.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the risk factors in elderly patients with primary hypertension with morning blood pressure surge in China, so asto provide references for clinical treatment and prevention of complications. MethodsSuch databases as PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 11, 2013), CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data were electronically searched for the case-control studies about morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) among elderly patients with primary hypertension in China from January 2006 to June 2014 were collected. Literature was screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, data were extracted and the methodological quality of the included studies was assessed, and then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 16 studies involving 2 007 cases were finally included, of which 956 cases were detected with MBPS. The results of meta-analysis showed that significant differences were found in glucose levels (MD=0.42, 95%CI 0.04 to 0.81, P=0.03), urinary microalbumin levels (MD=23.85, 95%CI 6.64 to 41.07, P=0.007), incidences of cerebrovascular events (OR=1.96, 95%CI 1.25 to 3.08, P=0.004), carotid atherosclerosis (OR=5.13, 95%CI 1.70 to 15.45, P=0.004) and left ventricular hypertrophy (OR=2.49, 95%CI 1.70 to 3.64, P < 0.000 01), left ventricular mass (MD=12.89, 95%CI 3.94 to 21.84, P=0.005), and carotid artery intima-media thickness (MD=0.08, 95%CI 0.02 to 0.14, P=0.009); while no significant difference was found in gender (OR=1.12, 95%CI 0.84 to 1.49, P=0.44), total cholesterol levels (MD=0.01, 95%CI-0.11 to 0.12, P=0.92), and creatinine levels (MD=1.77, 95%CI-1.16 to 4.70, P=0.24) between patients with or without MBPS. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that glucose levels, early kidney damage, emergent cerebrovascular events and the reconstruction of the artery and the left ventricle are risk factors of abnormal MBPS in China. However, the above conclusion needs to be verified by further conducting high quality prospective studies.
