ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of lacosamide (LCM) and carbamazepine (CAR) as monotherapy in the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed epilepsy. METHODS By methods of retrospective analysis, 84 adult patients with newly diagnosed epilepsy, were admitted to the Department of Neurology, Huaihe Hospital of Henan University during Sept. 2020-Jun. 2022, were divided into the control group (40 cases, receiving CAR treatment) and the observation group (44 cases, receiving LCM treatment) according to different medication regimens. Total response rate, epilepsy seizure frequency, blood lipid levels, and the occurrence of adverse events (AEs) of patients were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS In the first month after treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in the total response rate between the observation group (63.64%) and the control group (55.00%, P>0.05); the frequency of epilepsy seizure in both groups was significantly reduced compared to before treatment (P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05). In the third month after treatment, the total response rate of the observation group (90.91%) was significantly higher than control group (67.50%, P<0.05); the frequencies of epilepsy seizure in both groups were significantly reduced compared to before treatment, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05). In the third month after treatment, the levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and low-density lipoprotein cholestrol (LDL-C) in the control group and the level of LDL-C in the observation group were significantly higher than before treatment, and the levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of AEs between the observation group (15.91%) and the control group (17.50%, P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Both LCM and CAR have certain effects in the treatment of newly diagnosed epilepsy in adults, which can reduce the frequency of epilepsy seizure in patients and have comparable safety. Meanwhile, LCM has better long-term efficacy than CAR in treating newly diagnosed epilepsy in adults, and its impact on the patient’s blood lipid is smaller than CAR.

ABSTRACT

Aggregatibacter aphrophilus is a member of the normal flora of the human oral cavity and pharynx, a Gram-negative fastidous bacteria, belonging to agglomerates, which is a normal mixed oropharyngeal flora in humans, most commonly colonized on the surface of oral mucosa. This bacterial infection is rare in clinical practice, and it is difficult to culture and identify the bacteria, which is easy to be missed. A patient with intracranial infection was admitted to Huaihe Hospital, who showed fever and headache as the main clinical manifestations, and Aggregatibacter aphrophilus was detected by the metagenomic next-generation sequencing of cerebrospinal fluid. The patient′s symptoms were significantly improved after anti-infection treatment.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Bone tissue engineering based on pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) is a new approach to deal with bone defects. Protocols have been developed to generate osteoblasts from PSCs. However, the low efficiency of this process is still an important issue that needs to be resolved. Many studies have aimed to improve efficiency, but developing accurate methods to determine efficacy is also critical. Studies using pluripotency to estimate efficacy are rare. Telomerase is highly associated with pluripotency. METHODS: We have described a quantitative method to measure telomerase activity, telomeric repeat elongation assay based on quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). To investigate whether this method could be used to determine the efficiency of in vitro osteogenic differentiation based on pluripotency, we measured the pluripotency pattern of cultures through stemness gene expression, proliferation ability and telomerase activity, measured by QCM. RESULTS: We showed that the pluripotency pattern determined by QCM was similar to the patterns of proliferation ability and gene expression, which showed a slight upregulation at the late stages, within the context of the general downregulation tendency during differentiation. Additionally, a comprehensive gene expression pattern covering nearly every stage of differentiation was identified. CONCLUSION: Therefore, this assay may be powerful tools for determining the efficiency of differentiation systems based on pluripotency. In this study, we not only introduce a new method for determining efficiency based on pluripotency, but also provide more information about the characteristics of osteogenic differentiation which help facilitate future development of more efficient protocols.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the therapeutic effects of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with FLAG sequential busulfan/cyclophosphamide(Bu/Cy) conditioning regimen for refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia.@*Methods@#From February 2012 to June 2017, 21 patients with refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia underwent allo-HSCT with FLAG sequential Bu/Cy conditioning regimen. Transplantation-related complications and clinical outcome were retrospectively analyzed.@*Results@#After conditioning, no hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) and grade Ⅲ hemorrhagic cystitis occurred. 76.2% (16/21) patients had fever with 4 septicemia. One patient died of septic shock before engraftment. Twenty patients achieved neutrophil engraftment with a median time of 13 days (range, 10 to 21 days). Seventeen patients achieved platelet engraftment with a median time of 18 days (range, 9 to 25 days). The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was 39.5%, and 3 patients developed grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD. Of 19 patients who survived more than 100 days after transplantation, 4 had local chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). Of 21 patients, the median survival time was 15 months (range, 0.5 to 67 months) post-transplantation. Transplantation-related mortality rate was 28.7%. Leukemia relapse occurred in 4 patients with a median time of 4 months (range, 3 to 8 months) after transplantation. The cumulative relapse rate at 1 year was 21.4%. The 1-year and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates were 60.7% and 54.9% respectively. Log-rank analysis revealed that bone marrow blasts ≥ 20% or extramedullary leukemia before transplantation, poor platelet engraftment and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD were significantly related to shortened OS (P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#Allo-HSCT with FLAG sequential Bu/Cy conditioning regimen in patients with refractory/relapsed myeloid leukemia has acceptable transplantation-related risk and relapse rate. The 1-year and 3-year OS rates are comparable with those in remission patients.

METHODS:Isolated tracheal rings were prepared and soaked in Krebs-Henseleit,using acetyl-choline(ACh,1×10-7 g/mL)or histamine(His,1×10-6 g/mL)to induce contraction of tracheal rings,then the effects of H. cuspi-datus water elution and 30%,50%,60%,70%,95%ethanol elutions with mass concentrations of 0.08,0.16,0.32,0.64,1.28, 2.56 mg/mL on contraction of tracheal rings were respectively investigated. Contraction curves were recorded and antispasmodic rates were calculated. Tests were treated with saline as blank control and aminophylline (0.08 mg/mL) as positive control. RE-SULTS:Compared with blank control,0.16-2.56 mg/mL 30%,50% ethanol elution,0.32-2.56 mg/mL 60% ethanol elution and 0.64-2.56 mg/mL 70%,95% ethanol elution can obviously inhibit ACh-induced contraction of tracheal rings,antispasmodic rates were obviously increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);0.32-2.56 mg/mL water elution and 30%,50% ethanol elution,0.16-2.56 mg/mL 60%,70% ethanol elution and 1.28-2.56 mg/mL 95% ethanol elution can obviously inhibit His-induced contraction of tracheal rings,antispasmodic rates were obviously increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The effects of 2.56 mg/mL 60% ethanol elution ap-proach to aminophylline. CONCLUSIONS:Different elutions of H. cuspidatus has certain antagonistic effect on the ACh-induced or His-induced smooth muscle contraction of isolated tracheal in Guinea pigs;60% ethanol elution shows the strongest effect, which has similar effects with aminophylline at high mass concentration.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To conduct component analysis for the 40% ethanol eluate of Hyssopus officinalis,and investigate its improvement effect on inflammation in asthmatic mice. METHODS:The 40% ethanol eluate of polyamide resin column was col-lected,and HPLC-high resolution mass spectrometry was used for the component analysis of 40% ethanol eluate of H. officinalis. Totally 72 mice were randomly divided into blank group (normal saline),model group (normal saline),dexamethasone group (positive control,1.6 mg/kg) and 40% ethanol eluate of H. officinalis high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups (200,100,50 mg/kg),12 in each group. Except for normal group,mice in other groups were intraperitoneally injected 0.2 mL ovalbumin (OVA)for sensitization in 0,14 d and intragastrically administrated in 25-31 d,once a day. After administration,2 mg/mL OVA was dropped in nose for 7 d. After 24 h of last dropping in nose,tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interleukin-4(IL-4),interfer-on-γ(IFN-γ)levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were detected;pathological changes in lung tissue were observed. RE-SULTS:Totally 11 compounds were identified,the relative percentage content of 40.89%. The main components were rosmarinic acid,luteolin 7-O-β-D-rhamnoserhamnose (1→6)-α-D-pyran glucoside,hyperoside,etc. Compared with blank group,TNF-α, IL-4 levels in BALF in model group were increased,IFN-γ level was declined,and IL-4/IFN-γ ratio was enlarged(P<0.01);lung tissue was seriously damaged,there was infiltration of inflammatory cells around the blood vessels. Compared with model group, TNF-α,IL-4 levels in BALF in dexamethasone group,40% ethanol eluate of H. officinalis high-dose,medium-dose groups were declined,IFN-γ level was increased,and IL-4/IFN-γ ratio was reduced (P<0.01);pathological changes in lung tissue were improved. CONCLUSIONS:The established analysis method can effectively analysis the chemical components of 40% etha-nol eluate of H. officinalis,which has certain regulatory effect on releasing inflammatory factors and reducing inflammatory lesions in lung tissue of mice with bronchial asthma.

ABSTRACT

each group were sacrificed, respectively. Distributions of BrdU positive cels and ChAT positive cels were detected by S-P immunohistochemical method. The learning and memory abilities of rats were detected by Morris water maze system. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:BrdU positive cels were mainly distributed in the cortex and hippocampus, especialy around the blood vessels, and there was the presence of focal aggregation. A smal amount of BrdU positive cels were observed in the basal ganglia and thalamus as wel as in the ependyma. BrdU positive cels were counted at different time after operation. The number of BrdU positive cels decreased with time, and only a smal number of BrdU positive cels were observed at 60 days after transplantation. The number of ChAT positive cels at different time after transplantation was ranked as folows: neural stem cel transplantation group > model group > sham operated group (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the time for searching the platform was significantly lower in the neural stem transplantation group and sham operated group, but the number of crossing the platform was significantly higher in the neural stem cel transplantation group and sham operated group (P < 0.05). The results show that neural stem cels could be transplanted into the rats with vascular dementia, and the cels could survive and migrate in the brain of rats and significantly improve the learning and memory ability. This mechanism may be related to the differentiation and growth of cholinergic neurons in the hippocampus.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the inhibitory effect of Baixuan xiatare tablet on the model mouse with allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). METHODS:60 BALB/c mice were equally randomized into normal control (isometric solvent) group,model (isometric solvent)group,ebastine(positive control,0.003 g/kg)group and the groups of high,middle and low doses of Baixuan xiatare tablet(2.0,1.0 and 0.5 g/kg). The mice were given drugs,ig,once daily for 14 consecutive days. 0.5% 2,4-dinitrofluoro-benzene(DNFB)acetone olive oil solution was applied,for sensitization,on the prepared mouse’s skins one and two days before administration,and 0.2% DNFB acetone olive oil solution on their left ears 16 days thereafter to establish mouse models of ACD. At 48 h after successful establishment of the models,the thickness of the mouse’s left ear margin was measured and the difference value and swelling degree were calculated;flow cytometer was used to determine the levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD4+ and CD8+ in mouse blood and calculate the ratio of CD4+ to CD8+;the levels of interleukin 4(IL-4)and IL-6 in mouse serum were de-termined. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,those in the model group had higher difference value of ear margin and swelling degree,lower level of CD4+ in blood and ratio of CD4+ to CD8+,and higher content of IL-6 in serum. There was statisti-cally difference (P<0.01). Compared with model group,those in the groups of high,middle and low doses of Baixuan xiatare tablet had lower degree of left ear swelling and higher level of CD4+ in blood;those in the groups of high and middle doses thereof had lower difference value of left ear margin and level of IL-6 in serum;and those in the group of high dose thereof had higher lev-el of CD8+ in blood. There was statistically significance(P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Baixuan xiatare tablet has inhibi-tory effect to some degree on the mouse model with ACD by a mechanism which may be related to the balance of subsets CD4+and CD8+in blood and the reduction of IL-6 in serum.

ABSTRACT

Amyloid beta-peptides (Aβ) are known to undergo active transport across the blood-brain barrier, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy has been shown to be a prominent feature in the majority of Alzheimer׳s disease. Quercetin is a natural flavonoid molecule and has been demonstrated to have potent neuroprotective effects, but its protective effect on endothelial cells under Aβ-damaged condition is unclear. In the present study, the protective effects of quercetin on brain microvascular endothelial cells injured by fibrillar Aβ 1-40 (fAβ 1-40) were observed. The results show that fAβ 1-40-induced cytotoxicity in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs) can be relieved by quercetin treatment. Quercetin increases cell viability, reduces the release of lactate dehydrogenase, and relieves nuclear condensation. Quercetin also alleviates intracellular reactive oxygen species generation and increases superoxide dismutase activity. Moreover, it strengthens the barrier integrity through the preservation of the transendothelial electrical resistance value, the relief of aggravated permeability, and the increase of characteristic enzyme levels after being exposed to fAβ 1-40. In conclusion, quercetin protects hBMECs from fAβ 1-40-induced toxicity.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and secondary acute myelogenous leukemia (MDS-AML) using conditioning regimen with busulfan (Bu) and increased-dose of fludarabine (ID-Flu).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 49 patients with MDS or MDS-AML were treated by allo-HSCT, the clinical data was analyzed retrospectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients achieved hematopoietic reconstitution. Neutrophil engraftment was at 10 - 22 days (median 13 days), and platelet engraftment was at 8 - 66 days (median 16 days). The cumulative incidences of Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), hemorrhagic cystitis (HC), and hepatic venous occlusive disease (VOD) were 28.6%, 14.3% and 2.0%, respectively. The transplant-related mortality (TRM) was only 4.1% at 100d and 8.2% at 1-92 months of followed-up (median 14 months) period. Overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) was 75.5%, 73.5%, respectively. Kaplan-Meier curve showed that 3-year OS and 3-year DFS was (71.1 ± 7.8)%, (66.7 ± 8.3)%, respectively, with a relapse incidence (RI) 16.3%. OS for MDS and MDS-AML was 81.5% and 68.2%, and RI in two settings was 3.7%, 31.8%, respectively. OS for MDS-AML at complete remission (CR) and non-CR subgroup was 83.3% and 50.0%, respectively, while cumulative RR was 16.7% and 50.0%, respectively. OS and RI except for non-CR subgroup were 82.1% and 7.7%. Univariate analysis showed that pre-HSCT disease status had correlation with OS (P=0.031), but age, decitabine in conditioning regimen, stem cell source, HLA matching, patient-donor gender, dose of mononuclear cells and GVHD had no correlation with OS.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Bu/ID-Flu conditioning regimen for MDS and MDS-AML has high efficiency, fewer complications, lower toxicity and TRM. The OS and DFS were higher and RI was lower except for refractory MDS-AML patients. The regimen is valuable for clinical application.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bortezomib-based chemotherapy for 80 patients with multiple myeloma (MM).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 80 cases with a median age of 57 (range: 25-78) years were enrolled in the study. Bortezomib-based regimens included VD (bortezomib and dexamethasone) and PAD (bortezomib, doxorubicin and dexamethasone). 16 of the 80 patients received autologous or allo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The overall response (OR) rate was 80%, including a complete response (CR) of 46.3%. After a median follow-up of 25 months, the 1-year and 2-year overall survival (OS) was 81.4% and 72.9%, and the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 76% and 62.5%, respectively. The 2-year OS and PFS were 100% and 73.9 % in patients with HSCT, while both were 66% (P=0.029) and 58.7% (P=0.447) in patients without HSCT. In univariate analysis, Durie-Salmon group, ISS stage, CR and very good partial response (VGPR), and HSCT were prognostic factors for OS. Gender and extramedullary plasmacytomas were important prognostic factors for PFS. Multivariate analysis by Cox regression revealed that CR and VGPR, Durie-Salmon group A, and HSCT were prognostic factors for better OS; while male and patients without extramedullary plasmacytomas were prognostic factors for longer PFS.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>MM patients could benefit from bortezomib-based chemotherapy with satisfactory efficacy and safety. HSCT could improve the OS for young MM patients.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the clinical characteristics, prognostic factors in patients with primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B cell lymphoma (PGI-DLBCL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Long term follow-up of 85 patients with PGI-DLBCL was carried out and the patients clinical data were retrospectively evaluated. The risk factors for survival rate were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The median age of 85 patients was 61 years old (18-87), and male: female ratio was 1.83:1 (55/30). The stomach origin accounted for 63.5% (54/85), intestine origin for 35.3% (30/85) and multiple GI involvements for 1.2% (1/85). Bone marrow involvement accounted for 16.4% (11/64), Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection for 51.4% (19/37). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of all patients were 63.9%. The 5-year OS of patients in stomach and intestinal groups were 75.3% and 44.1%, respectively (P=0.005). The 5-year OS of germinal center B cell-like (GCB) group and non-GCB groups were 64.7% and 62.4%, respectively (P = 0.610). Univariated analysis revealed that the factors affecting OS of patients included age, lesion site, tumor size, gastrointestinal clinical Lugano staging system, IPI score (all P values < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that IPI score was independent prognosis risk factor affecting OS (RR = 3.609, 95 CI 2.034-6.404, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>IPI score was independent prognosis risk factor affecting OS of PGI-DLBCL patients.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the efficacy and tolerability of intravenous voriconazole on primary prevention in invasive fungal disease (IFD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>At the time of conditioning regimen, patients without IFD was intravenously administered with voriconazole at a dose of 100 mg two times per day until neutrophils greater than 0.5×10⁹/L. Patients treated with oral fluconazole, 200 mg per day, were control group. The incidence and risk factors of IFD and side effects of medicines were evaluated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Of the total 227 patients, 33 (14.54%) had IFD within 3 months after allo-HSCT. There was significant difference on overall survival between patients with or without IFD by Kaplan-Meier survival curve (P=0.029). Of the 83 cases with intravenous voriconazole, 7 cases occurred IFD (8.43%). In contrast, the incidence of IFD in control group was 18.06% (26 out of 144). There was remarkable difference between the two groups (P=0.048). But there was no significant difference on risk factors of IFD between the two groups. In addition, the incidence of liver function abnormalities between the two groups was no difference. The ratio of auditory hallucination and visual impairment induced by voriconazole was not high.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Intravenous voriconazole on primary prevention for IFD after allo-HSCT is much better than oral fluconazole with well tolerability and satisfactory efficacy.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study on the new preparation technology of Hugan Buzure granule and to compare protective effect on liver injury in rats by different extraction processes.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Volatile oil extraction technology, inclusion condition and ethanol extraction condition were selected by orthogonal experiments. The experiment models of liver injury were induced by carbon tetrachloride, bacillus calmette-guerin (BCG) and plus lipolysaccharides (LPS) in rats, respectively. ALT, AST in serum, and MDA, SOD in liver were measured and the rats were killed to calculate the liver coefficient to evaluate the protective effect of Hugan Buzure granule on experimental injury in rats.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The optimum conditions of volatile oil extraction were 1:12 of solid-liquid ratio, 2 h of soaking time, and 8 h of extracting time. The optimal beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complex condition was as follows: the volatile oils formed complex with the beta-CD in a ratio of 1: 6 and stirring for 1 h at 40 degrees C. The optimum ethanol extraction was as follows: refluxing and extracting 3 times with 10-fold 50% ethanol, 2 h for each time. Compared with the model group, the new technology extraction of Hugan Buzure granule could obviously inhibite the elevation of serum ALT (P < 0.01), AST (P < 0.05) of liver injury induced by BCG + LPS, and elevate the contents of SOD, and obviously inhibite the elevation of serum AST (P < 0.01) of liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The new preparation technology was feasible. The new extraction could protect the liver injury in rats, which was better than extraction of current preparation technology.</p>

ABSTRACT

@#ObjectiveTo explore the change of the concentration of monoamine neurotransmitters in serum in patients with post stroke depression(PSD).Methods85 patients with acute stroke were screened by Center for Epidemiological Survey,Depression Scale(CES-D) and assessed by Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD).A clinical diagnostic of depression was made based on Diagnostic and Statistical Mannal of Mental Disorders,edition 4(DSM-Ⅳ).There were 34 patients who involved with depression(PSD group), the others(51 cases) not(no depression group).Other 20 normal persons were chosen as a control(control group). In all patients and control subjects, the concentrations of monoamine neurotransmitters in serum was measured.ResultsThe concentration of monoamine neurotransmitters in serum was significantly lower in patients with post stroke depression.ConclusionsPost stroke depression is related to decrease of concentrations of monoamine neurotransmitters in serum.
