Objective :To compare short-term and midterm therapeutic effect between sirolimus-eluting stent implan-tation (SES-PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) in aged patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and multi-vessel coronary disease (MVD).Methods : Aged MVD patients undergoing selective revascularization were en-rolled and divided into CABG group (n＝301) and SES-PCI group (n＝289).Major adverse cardio-and cerebrovas-cular events (MACCE) were followed up for 30d ,one ,two and five years .Logistic multi-factor regression was used to analyze independent risk factors for different therapeutic methods .Results : Compared with CABG group after 30d follow-up ,there was significant reduction in all-cause mortality (6-3% vs.2-8%) and significant rise in a sec-ond revascularization rate (RVR ,1-3% vs.8-3%) in SES-PCI group , P＜0-05 or ＜0-01 ;compared with CABG group during one ,two and five-year follow up ,there were significant reductions in all-cause mortality [one year :(11-6% vs.4-8%) ,five years :(23-3% vs.12-1%)] and incidence rate of cerebrovascular accidents [one year :(8-6% vs .3-5%) ,five years :(18-3% vs.6-9%)] ,and significant rise in incidence rate of non-fatal myocardial infarction [one year :(6-6% vs.11-8%) ,five years :(12-0% vs.24-9%)] and a second RVR [one year :(3-0%vs.16-3%) ,five years :(9-3% vs.24-6%)] in SES-PCI group , P＜0-05 or ＜0-01- Logistic multi-factor regres-sion analysis indicated that DM and EH were independent risk factors for SES-PCI (OR＝ 45-772 ,13-218 , P＝0-001 both) ,while peripheral vascular disease was independent protective factor for SES-PCI (OR＝ 0-007 , P＝0-001).Conclusion : Compared with CABG ,there are significant reductions in short-term and midterm all-cause mortality ,and significant rise in a second RVR in MVD patients undergoing PCI .

Experimental study of the impact of hyperlipidemia on the chemotherapy in colorectal cancer model / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of hyperlipidemia on the prognosis and therapeutic response for colorectal cancer and to explore the associated mechanism.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The hyperlipidemic subcutaneous heterotopic colorectal cancer orthotopic transplant model of nude mice was established by feeding high fat diet and performing transplantation. Seventy mice were divided into 7 groups with 10 mice in each group. Two groups were used as pre-experiment. The remaining 5 groups included 4 high-fat groups (G1 to G4), and 1 normal-diet control group (G5). G1, G2, G3, G4, and G5 received normal saline, capecitabine, simvastatin, capecitabine plus simvastatin and capecitabine respectively for 3 weeks. Changes of tumor volume, tumor weight, tumor growth rate and blood lipid parameters (TC, TG, HDL, LDL, Lpa, apoA and apoB) were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In G1 to G4, TC, HDL, apoA, TG, LDL, Lpa, apoB increased, but only TC, HDL, apoA were significantly different as compared with G5 (P=0.020, P=0.001, P=0.001, P=0.911, P=0.249, P=0.681, P=0.053). The tumor in G1 grew fastest, and its growth rate was significantly different as compared with G2, G4, G5 except G3 (P=0.001, P=0.806, P=0.001, P=0.010). The tumor growth rate of G3 was lower than group G1, but higher than G2, G4, G5 with significant difference (P=0.001, P=0.002, P=0.016). The tumor of G5 grew faster than G2 and G4, but without significant differences (P=0.051, P=0.070). The tumor of G4 grew slowest without significant difference as compared to G2 (P=0.438). Compared with pre-administration, at the third week, the TC of G1 was increased [(3.8±0.4) mmol/L], while the other 4 groups decreased [G2 (2.8±1.8) mmol/L, G3 (2.9±0.7) mmol/L, G4 (1.4±0.9) mmol/L, G5 (2.1±0.2) mmol/L]. G4 decreased significantly (P=0.004). At the fifth week, the TC of all the 5 groups decreased, while the lipids of G4 were higher as compared to those at the third week. The TG, Lpa, ApoA were significantly decreased at the third week (all P<0.05), while no significant differences were found in HDL and apoB.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>A hyperlipidemia colon tumor model involving subcutaneous colon translocation and orthotopic transplantation of nude mice is successfully established. This model is an ideal research model for hyperlipidemia and colorectal cancer. The effect of capecitabine on tumors in hyperlipidemia groups is better as compared to normal diet group. The proliferation of tumor cells can increase serum total serum cholesterol.</p>

Effects of Jing'an Oral Liquid on the central neurotransmitter of multiple tics children / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effects of Jing'an Oral Liquid (JOL) on the central neurotransmitters of multiple tics (MT) children.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Sixty MT children patients were randomly assigned to the treatment group and the control group, 30 cases in each group. Another 30 healthy children were recruited as the health group. JOL and Tiapride Tablet (TT) was respectively given to patients in the treatment group and the control group. The treatment course was 2 months. The levels of central neurotransmitters [dopamine (DA), homovanillic acid (HVA), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), norepinephrine (NE), glutamic acid (GLU), aspartate (ASP), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)] were measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) before and after treatment, and compared with the health group.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the health group, the levels of 5-HT, HVA, GLU, and ASP significantly increased in the treatment group and the control group before treatment (P < 0.05), GABA significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Compared with before treatment in the same group, the levels 5-HT, HVA, and GLU significantly decreased in the treatment group (P < 0.05), while the levels of NE and GABA significantly increased (P < 0.05). The levels of DA, 5-HT, GLU, and ASP significantly decreased, while the levels of NE ang GABA significantly increased in the control group, showing statistical difference (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in each index between the treatment group and the control group before and after treatment (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>(1) The imbalance of a variety of monoamines and amino acid neurotransmitters can lead to MT, especially in the changes of 5-HT, HVA, GLU, ASP, and GABA. (2) JOL can significantly reduce the levels of 5-HT, HVA, and GLU, and significantly increase the levels of NE and GABA, which might be its pharmacodynamic mechanisms for treating MT.</p>

Distribution characteristics of colorectal neoplasm in 4450 patients and implication for colorectal cancer screening / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the distribution characteristics of colorectal neoplasm and evaluate the implication for colorectal cancer screening.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 17,939 colonoscopies were performed in the National Center of Colorectal Surgery between October 2004 and June 2009. Characteristics of colorectal neoplasm including anatomical distribution, sex, and age were investigated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Colorectal neoplasm was found in 24.8% (4450/17,939) of the patients during colonoscopy, including adenomatous polyp (n=3410, 19.0%) and adenocarcinoma (n=1040, 5.8%). The prevalence of colorectal neoplasm was higher in male and significantly increased in patients older than 40 years. 63.3% of the lesions located at the distal colon (sigmoid colon and rectum) and 36.7% at the proximal colon (36.7%). In patients with adenomatous polyp, 52.8% (1802/3410) of the lesions were at the distal colon, 30.8% (1049/3410) at the proximal colon, and 16.4% (559/3410) at both distal and proximal colon. In patients with carcinoma (n=1040), 921 (88.6%) lesions located at the distal colon, 118 (11.3%) at the proximal colon, and 1 (0.1%) at both segments.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Sigmoidoscopy is inadequate for colorectal cancer screening as compared to colonoscopy.</p>

Mechanisms of sensitization by 8-chloro-adenosine of human tumor cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis / 中华肿瘤杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of 8-chloro-adenosine (8-Cl-Ado) on the sensitivity of human hepatoma and breast cancer cell lines to TRAIL-induced apoptosis in vitro and its mechanisms.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Recombinant soluble TRAIL (rsTRAIL) or 8-Cl-Ado was used to treat hepatoma cell line BEL-7402 and breast cancer cell line MCF-7 in vitro. MTT assay was used to evaluate cell viability. The effect of cotreatment with rsTRAIL and 8-Cl-Ado was analyzed. NF-kappaB activity reporter plasmid was designed to measure the activity of transcription factor NF-kappaB. After transient transfection with the reporter plasmid, which contains NF-kappaB-responsive elements, into the cell lines, cells were treated with rsTRAIL and/or 8-Cl-Ado, then the activity of the reporter gene luciferase was determined. Different kinds of caspase inhibitors were used to measure the effect of caspases in the rsTRAIL and/or 8-Cl-Ado induced apoptosis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>8-Cl-Ado could greatly enhance sensitivity of BEL-7402 and MCF-7 cells to reTRAIL. Treatment with 8-Cl-Ado and rsTRAIL inactivated transcription factor NF-kappaB and induced apoptosis in BEL-7402, but not in MCF-7. Caspase family inhibitor could not prevent apoptosis induced by 8-Cl-Ado and rsTRAIL in BEL-7402 cells, however, it could block apoptosis in MCF-7 cells, indicating that two different apoptosis pathways in MCF-7 and BEL-7402 might exist, one was caspase dependent and the other caspase independent. Moreover, all of the inhibitors of caspse-3, -8 and -9 could not block apoptosis induced by the co-treatment.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>8-chloro-adenosine can enhance the sensitivity of human hepatoma cell line BEL-7402 and breast cancer cell line MCF-7 to rsTRAIL, even though MCF-7 is TRAIL-resistant. 8-Cl-Ado combined with rsTRAIL can trigger different signal pathways in MCF-7 and BEL-7402, which are caspase dependent and independent, respectively.</p>
