AIM: Remnant polyp tissues are often found after polypectomy. In this study, we assessed the outcome and safety of argon plasma coagulation (APC) in the management of colorectal sessile or semipedunculated polyp remnants after polypectomy. METHODS: Sixty-one colorectal polyps of 33 patients underwent polypectomy in Department of Digestion Medicine, Tangdu Hosptial, the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from 2004 to 2007. Colorectal polyps type was identified by pathological examination. All polyps were removed under colonoscope with the diathermic snare, and the polyp remnants were destroyed with APC (Erbe, Germany). The power output was initially set at 40-50 W. In case of visibly insufficient coagulation, the output power was increased gradually by 5 W up until the remnants were completely ablated. Follow-up endoscopies were performed 1 and 3 months after the treatment. Pathological examination and APC treatment were performed when the recurrence of polyps was found. RESULTS: ①All 61 colorectal polyps were removed with the diathermic snare and the polyp remnants were destroyed with APC successfully only once. ②During the follow-up averaged 2.4 months, effective destruction of remnant polyp tissue was obtained in 59 polyps (96.7%) in 31 patients (93.9%). Colorectal polyp of two cases relapsed one month after treatment and identified as villous adenoma. ③Final power output was positively correlated with lesion size (r =0.97, P

Objective To observe the effect of memantine on NR1 ,NR2A ,NR2B of N‐methyl‐das‐partate receptor and learning or memory ability in vascular dementia (VaD) rats .Methods Thirty adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group ,VaD model group and me‐mantine treatment group (10 in each group) .A rat VaD model was established by permanent liga‐tion of bilateral common carotid arteries .Rats in memantine treatment group received gastric me‐mantine 10 mg/(kg · d) 1 week after operation while those in model group received normal sa‐line .Five weeks after operation ,their learning or memory ability was tested by Morris water maze test ,expressions of NR1 ,NR2A and NR2B were detected by Western blot .Results The escape latency was significantly longer whereas the percentage of target quadrant and expression levels of NR1 ,NR2A and NR2B were significantly lower in model group than in sham operation group (P=0 .001 ,P=0 .002 ,P<0 .05) .The learning or memory ability and the expression levels of NR1 ,NR2A and NR2B were significantly higher in memantine treatment group than in model group but still lower in memantine treatment group than in sham operation group ( P< 0 .05) . Conclusion Memantine can improve the learning or memory ability of VaD rats by upregulating the expression of NR1 ,NR2A and NR2B in their hippocampus .

1. ③Higher examining rate of Ar wave was detected in acute phase in KD. ④V D was improved reversibly in convalescence phase. ⑤MVF showed that only E/A in acute phase in KD was lower than that of normal group. Conclusions It is available and valuable to combine PVF and MVF to assess left ventricular diastolic function in KD.

Purpose:To study the effect of radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy on advanced esophageal cancer. Methods:124 cases of advanced esophageal cancer were treated from March 1990 to April 1995. Patients were divided into 2 groups, including simple irradiation group receiving conventional radiotherapy to a total of 65～70 Gy; combined group which received the same radiotherapy as simple irradiation group plus chemotherapy with DFP or DF regimen. Both groups were followed for 5 years. Results:The short term results of radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy was better than that of radiotherapy alone. The difference between these two groups was statistically significant (P

0.05), but serum levels of, SS, SP and VIP were higher than those of control group (P05). When the intensity reached 120dB, gastrointestinal transit was accelerated significantly(P

0.05), and the serum levels of MLT, SS, SP, and VIP were higher than those of control group(P0.05). When the noise was higher than 80dB, gastrointestinal transit was increased significantly (P

Objective: To investigate the reversal effects of pulsed magnetic fields(PMF) on the drug resistant cell line K562/ADR in vitro and their mechanism.Methods: MTT assay was used to determine the IC50 of ADR on K562/S and K562/ ADR cell lines,the detriment of PMF on the K562/ADR cell line and the reversal effects of the drug resistance after treatment with different frequencies of PMF.Flow cytometry(FCM) was applied to the assessment of concentration of intracellular ADR.Results: The drug-resistance multiple of the K562/ADR cell line was 29.36.PMF did not affect the growth of the K562/ADR cell line.Different frequencies of PMF produced different effects on the IC50 of the K562/ADR cell line.In the same condition,70Hz PMF produced the most significant effect and increasea the concentration of intracellular ADR.Conclusion: PMF can reverse the multidrug resistance of K562/ADR by enhancing the drug concentration in K562/ADR cells,and its frequency is correlated with its reversal effect:low fregucncy produces better effect.
