Treatment of 30 cases of rheumatoid arthritis by needle-warming therapy

取双侧肾俞、足三里和曲池,进行温针,并配合内服中药治疗类风湿性关节炎患者30例,以西药常规治疗30例为对照.治疗3个月后,两组有效率分别为86.7%和60.0%,疗效差异有统计意义(P＜0.05).     

Clinical observation on scapulohumeral periarthritis treated by Tuina and SSP meridian therapeutic apparatus

目的:观察推拿结合经脉治疗仪治疗肩周炎的疗效.方法:观察组采用推拿结合日本产SSP经脉治疗仪治疗肩周炎患者35例.对照组单纯用经脉治疗仪治疗肩周炎患者30例.结果:观察组与对照组对肩周炎的治疗都有一定效果.但观察组的治愈率与对照组相比有明显差距(P＜0.01),观察组对肩周炎的治愈率明显高于对照组.结论:经脉治疗仪结合推拿是治疗肩周炎的一种有效方法.     

Treatment of 25 cases of obstruction of Qi in the chest by Tuina

应用一指禅手法为主治疗25例胸痹患者,结果显示推拿对胸痹患者的各种临床症状均有缓解作用,治愈10例,好转14例,无效1例.     

Treatment of Acute Lumbar Sprain with Single Acupoint： A RCT

目的:评价单一穴位治疗急性腰扭伤的治疗效果.方法:根据统一的诊断标准,在多个临床中心进行随机对照研究.全部病例320例经随机数字表法分为针刺后溪穴观察组和针刺腰痛点对照组.对患者的疼痛程度分别由医师和患者进行评分.结果:治疗2个疗程后,观察组和对照组近期有效率分别为89.4%和82.5%,远期有效率分别为95.6%和93.5%.经Ridit分析,近期疗效差异有统计意义(P<0.05),远期疗效差异无统计意义(P>0.05).结论:针刺单一穴位治疗急性腰扭伤疗效确切,取穴简便,后溪穴疗效好于腰痛点.     

Expression of extracellular matrix metalloproteases inducer on micrometastatic and primary mammary carcinoma cells.

PURPOSE: EMMPRIN (extracellular matrix metalloprotease inducer) is a glycosylated member of the immunoglobulin superfamily known to stimulate the production of matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) 1, 2, and 3 and MT1-MMP in peritumoral fibroblasts. We here evaluated whether EMMPRIN expression is related to tumor progression in human breast cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: An immunohistochemical study using high-density tissue microarrays (n = 2222 breast cancer samples) and EMMPRIN-specific antibodies HIM6 and MEM-M6/1 was performed, and staining results were statistically correlated with various clinicopathological parameters. To analyze the putative association between EMMPRIN expression and bone marrow (BM) micrometastasis, an additional set of 55 breast tumors from patients with or without micrometastatic cells as determined with anti-cytokeratin antibody A45-B/B3 were included in our study. Cytokeratin-positive cells in BM were costained with EMMPRIN-specific antibody 1G6.2. RESULTS: Positive EMMPRIN staining correlated significantly with various histopathological risk factors (higher tumor grade, increased tumor size, negative estrogen receptor status and progesterone receptor status, and higher mitotic index) as well as decreased tumor-specific survival (log-rank, P = 0.0027). In particular, in patients > 50 years (i.e., postmenopausal women), EMMPRIN expression was an independent prognosticator as shown by Cox regression analysis (relative risk = 1.7, 95% confidence interval 1.4-4.3, P = 0.036). An involvement of EMMPRIN in tumor progression was also supported by the fact that it was expressed on approximately 90% of micrometastatic cells in BM. CONCLUSIONS: EMMPRIN expression in primary tumor predicts an unfavorable prognosis in breast cancer, suggesting a crucial role of EMMPRIN in progression of human mammary carcinomas.     

卵巢癌高频转移细胞模型中nm23-H1基因表达的相关性研究

目的 筛选高频转移卵巢恶性肿瘤细胞，研究不同转移潜能的细胞和nm23的相关性。方法 通过反复动物接种和体外培养，观察动物肺转移状况，筛选高频转移细胞株，比较原发肿瘤和转移肿瘤的特征，并应用Northera-blot方法测定各类肿瘤细胞nm23 mRNA表达水平。结果 8株卵巢恶性肿瘤细胞中4株有较高转移潜能。多次培养接种可筛选出高频转移细胞亚群。测定各类细胞nm23 mRNA表达水平与肿瘤转移特性呈负相关。结论 由基因分子水平决定的肿瘤转移趋势在不同肿瘤种类及细胞亚群中有明显差异；卵巢癌中nm23 mRNA和蛋白的表达与其转移能力的降低有密切关系，可作为判定卵巢癌预后的敏感指标。
