RESUMEN
Ommaya reservoir implantation is generally used in the treatment of hydrocephalus and intraventricular drug administration. Ommaya reservoir implantation in the subarachnoid space of the spinal cord for the intrathecal drug administration has not been carried out in China, and only several reports can be retrieved from PubMed. About 60%-90% of untreated patients with spinal muscular atrophy type 2 (SMA2) who survive to adulthood often have complex scoliosis and joint deformities. Nusinersen is an effective drug for the treatment of SMA2. And the route of administration is intrathecal injection, which is difficult for patients with severe scoliosis. This article summarizes the process of Ommaya reservoir implantation and postoperative drug administration in a patient with complex scoliosis type SMA2, which provides a new method for clinical treatment of this disease.

This consensus report provides a brief account of the concept, methodology and implementation of MIPD as well as clinical decision supporting systems for MIPD. The status and future advancing of MIPD was also discussed to facilitate the appropriate application and development of MIPD in China.
RESUMEN
Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is characterized by dysplastic and ineffective hematopoiesis that can result from aberrant expansion and activation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) within the bone marrow microenvironment. The proliferation and activation of MDSC lead to the dysfunction and depletion of natural killer cells and CD8 + T cells, and the recruitment of inflammatory cells and factors leads to the further accumulation of genetic abnormalities in MDS patients, leading to the progression of MDS. The accumulation of inflammatory cytokines in the tumor environment induces the expression of programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) in hematopoietic stem cells and hematopoietic progenitor cells and the overexpression of programmed death receptor ligand 1 (PD-L1) in MDSC, and the interaction of PD-1/PD-L1 leads to the apoptosis of MDS hematopoietic progenitor cells and ineffective hematopoiesis. The experiments and clinical studies targeting MDSC have confirmed that correcting or reversing the bone marrow microenvironment of immune disorders in MDS is a therapeutic strategy to restore effective hematopoietic function.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the research status,hotspots and frontiers of the artificial intelligence (AI) technology applicated in pharmaceutical field, and to provide ideas for the development of related research in China. METHODS: Using bibliometric method, relevant journals and proceeding papers from 1998 to 2017 were searched from Web of Science database (“Article” and “Proceeding Paper” as retrieval words). Using analysis and retrieval results of ISI Web of Knowledge and its function of creating citation report, CiteSpace 5.2.R1 software was employed to draw knowledge map; quantitative statistics and qualitative analysis was conducted to summarized the research volume, co-citation, main research countries/areas, main research institutions, main researchers, research hotspots and research frontiers in this field. RESULTS: A total of 3 674 related literatures were retrieved, and the number of global published literatures in this field increased rapidly from 1998 to 2017; the dominant nations included America, China, Britain and Germany because of their large number of publications,but China showd an obvious lack of international cooperation and excellent core teams. From the researcher’s point of view, the research in this field was in a state of “partially concentrated and overall dispersed” and lacked team cooperation. The research hotspots contained important core of AI technology (machine learning algorithms) and its application in pharmaceutical field (drug discovery and design), the classification of disease or adverse drug reaction, the establishment and optimization of pharmaceutical mode, drugs screening or pharmacodynamics prediction, the estbalishment of pharmaceutical database, etc. The recent research frontiers included “molecular docking” “machine learning” “Meta analysis” “precision medicine” “targeted therapy”, etc. CONCLUSIONS: AI applicated in pharmaceutical field is a hot research field with strong timeliness, and its application in the development of pharmaceutical industry is the general trend. However, there is still a gap between the current research level in this field in China and the international frontier research. In order to adapt to the international trend of the combination of AI technology and pharmacy, pharmacists in China should strengthen their cooperation with researchers in AI fields while doing well the basic work of experimental research and clinical trials,etc.
RESUMEN
Aromatic antiepileptic drugs such as carbamazepine are the first-line treatment for epilepsy. The adverse reactions have greatly limited their clinical application. The occurrence rate of severe skin adverse reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is low,but they are often fatal.Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene polymorphisms are reported to be related with skin adverse reactions caused by aromatic antiepileptic drugs,but the exact mechanism is unclear.This article will perform a review about the correlation between skin adverse reactions caused by aromatic antiepileptic drugs and HLA gene polymorphisms published in recent years,in order to provide theoretical basis for further study of HLA susceptibility genes in Chinese Han population,and provide a reference for achieving individualized treatment of epilepsy.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the uncertainty for the determination of salicylic acid in human plasma by ultra performance liquid chromatography(UPLC).Methods All sources of uncertainty in the whole process of salicylic acid determination were analyzed,then the combined and expanded uncertainty were evaluated.Results The expanded uncertainty at concentrations of the lowest limit of quantitation(0.23 μg·mL-1) and a high level(39.43 μg·mL-1) of salicylic acid(P=95%,k=2) was 0.014 and 7.34 μg·mL-1,respectively.Conclusion The uncertainty of salicylic acid determination in human plasma by UPLC was mainly caused by recovery,repeatability and sample preparation at the lowest limit of quantitation and high qulity control concentration.

Objective To explore the correlation of metabolic disorder of newly diagnosed type 2 metabolism(T2DM) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods A total of 117 patients with newly diagnosed T2DM in Beijing Ditan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from June 2014 to June 2015 were enrolled.Patients were divided into two groups:T2DM with NAFLD of 57 cases and T2DM without NAFLD of 60 cases.Body mass index (BMI),waist circumference (WC),liver and kidney function,serum lipid,glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c),fasting glucose,fasting insulin and C-peptide (FCP) were detected.The insulin resistance and β-cell function were assessed by homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and HOMA-β.Results The incidence of NAFLD in T2DM patients was 51% (that was,60 cases of T2DM patients with NAFLD),compared with 2TDM group,the metabolic index of T2DM without NAFLD was significantly increased (blood triglyceride (TG):(2.58 + 1.8) mmol/1 vs.(1.22 + 0.4) mmol/l,fasting blood glucose:(11.5+6.1) mmol/l vs.(9.2+4.3) mmol/l,serum uric acid:(465.3+65) umol/l vs.(325.3+72) umoL/l;P =0.03,0.03,0.02);HOMA-IR was more serious ((4.9 ± 2.8) vs.(3.8 ± 2.7);P =0.03);insulin β-cell function was compensatory more obvious ((49.2 ± 27) vs.(29.5 ± 18);P =0.02);prevalence rate of obesity,hypertension and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKD),diabetic retinopathy (DR),diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN) were significantly increased(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that,smoking(OR=1.405,95%CI:1.262-1.567),male(OR=1.037,95%CI:1.015-1.063),BMI(OR=1.113,95%CI:1.278-2.531),WC (OR =1.624,95% CI:1.162-1.761) and TG (OR =1.823,95% CI:1.2822.563) were risk factors of NAFLD (P < 0.05).Conclusion T2DM patients with NAFLD have severer insulin resistance than those without NAFLD.The β-cell function of those patients is compensatory increased.NAFLD prevalence rate significantly increase in patients with obesity,especially in male diabetic patients who smoking.
RESUMEN
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective consecutive case series. OBJECTIVE: To review and analyze clinical presentations and radiological imaging of 326 consecutive patients with spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF) from 2 institutions. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The clinical presentations of SDAVF are nonspecific. Patients may be initially diagnosed with other spinal diseases. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reveal spinal cord changes associated with the disorder, but neurosurgeons often overlook these changes. METHODS: From 1989 to 2009, 326 patients were diagnosed with SDAVF and treated at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and the Xuanwu Hospital of the Capital University of Medical Sciences. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records and radiological images of all patients, and collected and analyzed the related data. RESULTS: Two hundred eighty-two males and 44 females (male/female ratio 6.4:1; mean age, 53.9 yr; SD, 12.1) were included in the study. Fistulas were located at the T7 spinal segment (41, 12.6%), but were more typically found at T5 to L5 (273, 82.5%). The most common initial symptoms were lower extremity weakness (234, 71.8%), sensory disturbance (229, 70.2%), and sphincter disturbance (87, 26.7%). These percentages increased to, 85.6%, 80.8%, and 52.5%, respectively, until patients were properly diagnosed. The mean diagnostic time to SDAVF was 19.9 months (SD, 25.2). Two major changes noted on magnetic resonance images were intramedullary T2-weighted signal hyperintensity (284, 87.1%) and perimedullary dilated vessels (251, 77%). Fistulas were often located outside of the vertebral segments of T2-weighted signal change (P = 0.005). Magnetic resonance angiography and computed tomography angiography of 33 (71.7%) patients revealed perimedullary dilated vessels and precisely located fistulas in 19 (41.3%) patients. Magnetic resonance angiography and computed tomography angiography studies of the perimedullary vessels also led to identification of a second fistula through angiography. Degenerative disc disease and myelitis were the most common misdiagnoses, and the patients were often treated incorrectly. CONCLUSION: "Worsening" and "symptoms combination" are progression characteristics of SDAVF. Patients should undergo spinal magnetic resonance imaging when they are first suspected to have SDAVF. Magnetic resonance angiography and computed tomography angiography as noninvasive angiography are helpful for diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the kinesin family member 17 (KIF17) expression and cellular localization in the hippocampus and temporal lobe cortex in the rat lithium-pilocarpine model of epilepsy,and discuss its function in the epilepsy pathogenesis.Methods The animal model was established by lithiumpilocarpine induction in rats.Totally 49 adult healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group (n =7) and experimental group (n =42).The experimental group included 6 subgroups (n =7)according to sacrifice time (24 h,72 h,7 d,14 d,1 month and 2 months).The expression and localization of KIF17 were examined by western blot and double-label immunofluorescence,respectively.Results In rat hippocampus,the expression of KIF17 protein increased after the onset of seizure (the ration of KIF17/β-actin were:24 h 0.516 ± 0.196,72 h 0.742 ± 0.313),reached its peak in 7 days (0.888 +0.319)and then slowed down (14 d 0.770 ± 0.271,1 month 0.742 ± 0.261,2 months 0.714 ± 0.271),all of which were significantly higher than that in the control group (0.495 ± 0.203).And all the differences had statistical significance (t =7.051,4.974,7.419,8.795,8.264,6.676,all P < 0.05).In rat cortex of temporal lobe,the expression of KIF17 protein increased after the onset of seizure and reached its peak in 30 d.The optical density ration in the experimental groups were higher than that in the control group.Doublelabel immunofluorescence disclosed that the KIF17 localized in the neurons,including excitable neurons and inhibitory neurons,but not in the astrocytes which were performed with anti-microtubule-associated protein 2,anti-brain-specific Na-dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter,anti-glutamate decarboxylase 1 and anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein,respectively.Conclusion KIF17 may play a potential role in the pathogenetic mechanisms of the rat lithium-pilocarpine model of epilepsy.
RESUMEN
Objective To study clinical effects and complications of minimal invasive neurosurgery for pituitary adenoma through superciliaryarch-keyhole approach. Methods 127 cases pituitary adenoma in three hospitals in Shangdong province from May. 2006 to Sept. 2009 confirmed by surgery were analyzed. Patients were treated by different operative approaches, 53 cases using surgery through superciliaryarch-keyhole approach and 74 cases through conventional subfrontal approach. Clinical parameters were compared in patients undergoing surgery through different approaches. Results There were no differences in two groups, in aspects such as resection rate, improvment of endocrine hormone secretion and acuity of vision with campus visualis, electrolyte disturbances, hypothalamus damage (P >0.05). Significant differeces reside in average hospitalization days, subcutaneous fluidify, psychiatric symptom and circumscribed cerebral ischemia ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Advantages of minimal invasive neurosurgery through superciliary arch approach such as less trauma, better expose,shorter hospitalization days, less subcutaneous fluid accumulation and psychiatric symptoms in terms of this apporach are suitable for removing hypophyseal adenomas that grow on or around sella turcica.
RESUMEN
Epithelial membrane protein 3 (EMP3) is a trans-membrane signaling molecule with important roles in the regulation of apoptosis, differentiation and invasion of cancer cells, but the detailed is largely still unknown. We analyzed the mRNA levels and methylation statuses of EMP3 in 63 primary breast carcinomas and assessed their correlations with clinicopathologic variables. The expression of EMP3 mRNA in primary breast carcinomas was significantly higher than the expression of 20 normal breast tissues (p<10(-7)). EMP3 overexpression in breast carcinomas was significantly related to histological grade III (p=3.9X10(-7)), lymph node metastasis (p= 0.003), and strong Her-2 expression (p=3.3X10(-6)). Hypermethylation frequencies of EMP3 were detected in 36.5% of breast carcinomas by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction. However, no significant correlations were found between methylation status of EMP3 and mRNA expression levels as well as other clinical parameters. In conclusion, EMP3 may be a novel marker of tumor aggressiveness. Overexpression of EMP3 in primary breast carcinoma is not associated with DNA methylation.

To study the clinical characteristics of intraventricular epidermoids, we analysed retrospectively 12 patients treated in our hospital and reviewed the literature with regard to clinical manifestations, imaging features, diagnosis, surgical procedures and prognosis. Four patients with lateral ventricle epidermoid and eight in the fourth ventricle were included in this group. Intraventricular epidermoids are characteristically hypodense non-enhancing lesions on CT scans. MRI reveals them to have long T1 and T2 relaxation times with slight mass effect. Total removal is ideal, but special attention should be paid to preservation of important neurovascular structures. Close proximity of tumours to cranial nerves and the brain stem pose technical difficulties in total removal. Cranial nerve dysfunction and aseptic meningitis are the main postoperative complications. Long-term prognosis for patients with intraventricular epidermoids and well-preserved neurological conditions is good, even in the case of subtotal excision. Clinical follow-up and MRI allow earlier diagnosis of recurrence.

Background and purpose:Curcumin is the major effective component of curcuma,curcumin has been noted to be able to selectively inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in tumor cells. Interferon-?(IFN-?) is one of the most important cytokines used in clinical treatment nowadays. This study was made to investigate the inhibitory effect of interferon-?(IFN-?)and curcumin on Raji cells (B-NHL) and discuss their mechanism.Methods:The variations of morphology of Raji cells were observed in culture medium after being treated by IFN-?(500,100,2000U/L) combined with various concentrations of curcumin (6.25,12.5,25?mol/L), cells were incubated with the compounds for variable times.The inhibitory ratio was measured by MTT assay, apoptosis was quantitated by flow cytometry(FCM) and the expressions of caspase6, caspase8 and caspase9 in Raji cells were detected by Western blot.Results:both IFN-? and curcumin could significantly induce apoptosis and inhibit the proliferation of Raji cells, synergistic effects were found if cells were treated by the combination of IFN-? and curcumin. The overexpressions of caspase6, caspase8 and caspase9 in Raji cells could be observed in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Conclusions:The combination of IFN-? and curcumin could synergistically inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis, and its potential mechanism is probably associated with upregulating the expressions of caspase6, caspase8 and caspase9 in B-NHL Raji cell.
RESUMEN
To define the clinical characteristics of cystic acoustic neuroma, we retrospectively analyzed 22 patients with cystic acoustic neuroma and reviewed the literature with regard to clinical manifestation, imaging features, diagnosis, surgical procedures and prognosis. An acoustic neuroma was defined as cystic according to the following criteria: the presence of hypodense/hypointense areas on CT or MRI, the identification of cystic elements at operation and histological verification. At the end of surgery, the facial nerve was anatomically intact in 86.4% of cystic acoustic neuromas. Complete removal of the tumor was achieved in 18 cases (81.8%). We conclude that patients with cystic acoustic neuroma need prompt surgery with special attention paid to the preservation of the facial nerve.

To probe the feasibility and utility of neuroendoscopic inspection of the anatomy of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) and of neuroendoscopic assisted microneurosurgery (NEAMN) for CPA lesions via a retrosigmoid approach, we used retrosigmoid NEAMN in 28 patients with CPA lesions. Prior to this, we undertook anatomical observation of bilateral CPA in two adult cadaver heads using the neuroendoscope. NEAMN tumour resection was performed in eight acoustic neuromas, one meningioma and 14 cholesteatomas and NEAMN vascular decompression was performed in five patients with trigeminal neuralgia. Both the neurovascular structures of the CPA and the ventral surface of the pons, as well as the clivus, can be inspected using the neuroendoscope through a retrosigmoid approach with a 2-3 cm diameter bony opening. Complete excision of the tumour with preservation of the facial nerve was achieved in all eight acoustic neuromas. Likewise, total resection of the tumour was possible in the 14 cholesteatomas and one meningioma. Paroxysmal facial pain resolved after NEAMN vascular decompression in the five patients with trigeminal neuralgia. There were no postoperative complications or deaths in this series. The CPA can be divided into three levels - the cranial, medial, and caudal, and each level contains specific neurovascular structures as seen through the neuroendoscope. Knowledge of these divisions is useful to master the common NEAMN procedures of the CPA. NEAMN for CPA lesions via a retrosigmoid approach is a useful adjunct to standard microneurosurgical techniques effect and may decrease the operative risk.

In order to examine the strong anticancer action and low toxicity of Trichostatin A (TSA), the effect of TSA was examined on the growth inhibition, acetylation of histone H3 and apoptosis in HL-60 cells by employing MTT, immunocytochemical techniques, and Annexin-V-FITC/ PI assay. Our results showed that TSA could inhibit proliferation of HL- 60 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and the IC50 at the 36th h was 100 ng/ml. The apoptosis-inducing effect of TSA on HL-60 cells was also time- and dose-dependent. But it didn't demonstrate apparent apoptosis induction in NPBMNCs within specific dose and time range. Both of the acetylation of histone H3 in HL-60 cells and NPBMNCs increased significantly (P<0.05) after treated with 100 ng/ml TSA for 4 h. However, there was no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). It is concluded that TSA can inhibit growth and induce apoptosis of HL-60 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and is able to selectively induce apoptosis in HL-60 cells but does not respond in NPBMNCs under the same conditions. The difference of TSA between HL-60 cells and NPBMNCs can't be explained by the regulation of histone acetylation.
