Objectives To analyze the effect of improved oven for defluorination in coal-burning endemic fluorosis areas in China, and to provide evidence for the prevention and control of fluorosis. Methods Electronic databases including CNKI, CBM, VIP and CDMD-D (1989 to 2005), were searched. We also checked the reference lists of relevant articles. We selected relevant articles according to the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The methodological quality was assessed . Data on room heat preservation and the effect of improved oven for defluorination were collected in the surveillance spots of Three Gorges Reservoir. Correlation analyses were conducted between the improved oven and its effect parameters. Results Twelve articles of low quality met the selection criteria, of which 9 were graded C and 3 were graded D in terms of the methodological quality. A negative correlation was found between the decreasing rate of normal oven use and the decreasing rate of dental fluorosis as well as of urine fluorine (Pearson correlation coefficient r = – 0.87, – 0.63, Plt;0.01, lt;0.05, respectively). Analysis also revealed a positive correlation between room heat preservation and the decreasing rate of dental fluorosis as well as of normal oven use (the two Spearman correlation coefficients and P values were the same: r = –1.00, Plt;0.01). Conclusion High-quality studies on the effect of improved oven for defluorination in China are not available. Based on the current evidence, the improved oven for defluorination and the correct use, maintenance and house rebuilding for heat preservation may help to prevent fluorosis.
OBJECTIVE To compare the permeability and incidence rate of complication of arteriovenous internal fistula made by autogenous, homologous, and artificial Teflon blood vessels. METHODS Two hundred and forty one cases with arteriovenous internal fistula made by autogenous, homologous, and artificial Teflon blood vessels were followed up to compare the permeability and incidence rate of complication at 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years. RESULTS The incidence rate of complication of autogenous blood vessels was lowest, it had no statistical differences compared with arteriovenous internal fistula made by homologous blood vessels. The permeability of arteriovenous internal fistula made by homologous blood vessels was highest, and it had no statistical differences compared with autogenous blood vessels. The permeability of arteriovenous internal fistula made by artificial Teflon blood vessels was lowest, but the incidence rate of complication was highest, and it had significantly statistical differences compared with arteriovenous internal fistula made by autogenous blood vessels (P lt; 0.01). CONCLUSION Arteriovenous internal fistulas made by autogenous and homologous blood vessels have high permeability and low incidence rate of complication, they are superior to the arteriovenous internal fistula made by artificial Teflon blood vessels.
Objective To systematically evaluate the effectiveness and safety of fluoxetine in treating premature ejaculation (PE). Methods All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on fluoxetine treating PE published from July 1996 to May 2012 were collected in the following databases: MEDLINE, EMbase, PubMed, Ovid, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CBM and CKNI. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, literature screening, data extraction and quality assessment were conducted independently by two reviewers. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 6 RCTs involving 221 patients were included finally. The results of meta-analysis showed that, as for effectiveness, there was no significant difference in the intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) between the two groups before the treatment (WMD=–0.21, 95%CI ?4.79 to 4.37, P=0.93), but the IELT of the fluoxetine group was obviously longer than that of the control group after the treatment, with a significant difference (WMD=134.54, 95%CI 79.78 to 189.30, Plt;0.000 01). The results of sensitivity analysis indicated that the IELT of the fluoxetine group was longer than that of the control group, with a significant difference (WMD=155.19, 95%CI 130.64 to 179.75, Plt;0.000 01). As for safety, the fluoxetine group was higher in the incidence of adverse reaction than the control group, with a significant difference (OR=5.49, 95%CI 2.43 to 12.38, Plt;0.000 1). Conclusion Current evidence indicates that fluoxetine can improve the symptoms of PE patients, obviously prolong the IELT, and improve the quality of sexual life; and it is tolerable to patients with mild adverse reactions and is suitable for long-term intake. For the limited quantity of the included studies, we herein believe that, to obtain more evidence, it is necessary to further confirm the diagnosis and therapeutic criteria of PE, to design and conduct more multicenter and large scale clinical studies by adopting the internationally recognized indexes, and to perform a long-term follow-up．

Methods From January 2004 to December 2009, the clinical data from 54 cases of SBP after cirrhosis were analyzed. The patients underwent the treatment of cefoperazone sulbactam combined with levofloxacin. The therapeutic effect was observed. Results The main clinical manifestations were fever and abdominal pain, and about half of the patients had the typical peritoneal irritation. Only a few patients had elevated peripheral white blood cells (WBC). The WBC count, abdominal effusion polymorphonuclearcyte count and bacteria cultivation were the indexes of diagnosis of SBP. Conclusion The clinical features of post-hepatitis cirrhosis complicated with SBP are not typical. The main pathogenic bacteria is G- bacilli. In the early diagnosis and treatment, cefoperazone sulbactam combined with levofloxacin is effective.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the safety of propofol versus sevoflurane for pediatric surgery.
MethodsEMbase, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, CSCD, CNKI, WanFang Data were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about propofol versus sevoflurane for pediatric surgery from inception to January 2015. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then metaanalysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.
ResultsFifteen RCTs involving 1 065 children were included finally. Meta-analysis results showed that, compared with the sevoflurane group, the propofol group could reduce the incidence of emergence agitation (OR=0.23, 95%CI 0.16 to 0.34, P<0.000 01) and the incidence of postoperative vomiting (OR=0.32, 95%CI 0.20 to 0.51, P<0.000 01). There were no significant differences between the two groups in extubation time (MD=0.98, 95%CI -0.26 to 2.21, P=0.12), eye-opening time (MD=3.32, 95%CI -2.65 to 9.29, P=0.28) and postoperative analgesic requirements (OR=0.60, 95%CI 0.30 to 1.23, P=0.16).
ConclusionIn reducing the incidence of emergence agitation and postoperative vomiting, propofol is superior to sevoflurane, so propofol is safer than sevoflurane for children's surgery.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more than 80% of lung cancer. Nowadays, gemcitabine and cisplatin in combination have been adopted as the first-line chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC. This study aimed to monitor early response to combined chemotherapy of gemcitabine plus cisplatin in a mouse model of NSCLC by using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose and 18F-fluorothymidine small animal positron emission tomography (PET). Lewis lung carcinoma-bearing C57BL/6 mice were treated with gemcitabine-cisplatin or saline. Small animal PET with 18F-FDG and 18F-FLT was performed before (baseline) and after treatment (on Day 3), respectively. Imaging results were confirmed by histopathological studies (hematoxylin and eosin staining, Ki67 staining). Compared to the results in the control group, gemcitabine-cisplatin in the treated group significantly inhibited tumor growth (P<0.05). In the treated group, the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 18F-FLT decreased significantly from 0.59±0.05 (baseline) to 0.28±0.05 (Day 3) (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between baseline (4.35±0.46) and that on Day 3 (4.02±0.47) on 18F-FDG SUVmax (P>0.05). The proliferation of tumor assessed by Ki67 staining decreased significantly after treatment of one dose of gemicitabine-cisplatin (P<0.05). The staining of HE showed an increase in necrotic and inflam- matory cells after the treatment. This study demonstrated that the uptake of 18F-FLT reduced more rapidly and signi-ficantly than that of 18F-FDG and was less disturbed by the increase of inflammatory cells after chemotherapy.
