442 cases of primary liver carcinoma were admitted to our hospital from August 1975 to June 1983, and confirmed by surgery and pathologic examination. Of these 442 cases, 71 cases (16.8%) were AFP-negative (h magglutination titer 1:10, counter immuno-electrophoresis negative and radio-immuno-assay less than 31ng/ml). The ege of the patients ranged from 15 to 76 years old(average : 46), and the sex ratio between males and females was 4.9 = 1.The pathologic findings were 59 liver cell carcinomas, 10 bile duct cell carcinomas, 2 mixed types and 34(57.6%)pertaining to grade I or I-II, 22(37.3%) grade II-III or III and 3(5.1 %)grade III-IV in differentiation. 31 cases (43.6%) were found to have been combined witn cirrhosis.The most common clinical symptom was hepatodynia and other symptoms were anorexia, s:nse of abdomen distention,fever etc. 10 of the cases were misdiagnosed as caver- nous hemangicma of the liver, diseases of bile ducts and hydatid cyst of the liver before operation.Earlier diagnosis could be made by combining enzyme tcsts(PHI, LDH, rGT, AKP, A1AT etc),B-mode ultrasonography, angiograpby of hepatic artery, liver scanning and clinical symptons together.In addition, an evaluation of enzyme tests, B-mode ultrasonography,liver scanning and angiography of hepatic artery were also discussed as well as the differential diagnosis.

Objective:To study the cytokine mechanism of Jiawei Xuanfei Toujie Ji(JXT)therapy to influenza infected mouse.Methods:Mice were inoculated intranasally with mouse lung-adapted influenza virus strain(FM1),and were treated with JXT. At 5th days after postinoculation were sacrificed, and IL-2,TNF-?,IL-6,IFN-? in their sera were measured with ELISA kits, their lungs sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin.Results:Compared with model group ,the levels of IL-2 and IFN-? in JXT group were dramatically higher,and the levels of TNF-? and IL-6 were lower,and pathological effects of influenza pneumonia showed less lung injury.Conclusion:Regulative effects on cytokine may be one of the factors that JXT decrease the pathogenesis of influenza-induced acute lung injury.

Objective: To analysis the relationship between glucocorticosteroids (GCS) usage and side effects in the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Methods: All clinical records of probable SARS patients in Beijing were collected and input into an Epi6 database, in which 1 291 patients had entire information and met the clinical criteria of SARS. The usage of GCS and GCS associated side effects were analyzed retrospectively. Results: Patients accepted GCS therapy were 83.96% (n= 1 084), whereas 16.04%(n=207) did not take GCS. The average dosage of GCS was 160 mg/d in the first week, and then reduced to 80 mg/d and 40 mg/d in the second and the third weeks, respectively. Initial blood glucose, systolic pressure (SBP), and diastolic pressure (DBP) were no significant difference between GCS group and non-GCS group. The highest blood glucose during the treatment in GCS group was markedly higher than that in non-GCS group [(8.68? 4.80 ) mmol/L vs (6.39?3.71) mmol/L, P05). After GCS administration, SBP and DBP were increased gradually, and reached their peaks in the fourth week [SBP (117.2?14.0) mm Hg and DBP (72.5?9.1) mm Hg vs SBP (120.0?12.5) mm Hg and DBP (74.5?8.7) mm Hg, P

Objective To explore the clinical application and diagnostic efficiency of two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) in assessing liver fibrosis of patients with viral and non-viral hepatitis. Methood Seventy-three patients with viral hepatitis and sixty with non-viral hepatitis scheduled for liver biopsy in the third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University from April, 2011 to January, 2013 were enrolled in this study. The Young's modulus in different fibrosis stages, correlation coefficients of liver fibrosis level and area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were compared between patients with viral and non-viral hepatitis respectively. Results The hepatic Young's modulus of patients with viral and non-viral hepatitis in S0-1, S2-3, S4 were 6.1(4.8-6.6)kPa,7.4(6.0-8.4)kPa,10.3(7.6-14.0)kPa, and 10.7(8.0-13.5)kPa,24.7(17.4-32.1)kPa,26.8(16.5-31.7)kPa, respectively. The difference of Young's modulus between viral and non-viral hepatitis in S0-1 were statistically significant (Z=-3.45, P=0.001), while not in S2-3 and S=4 (Z=-0.40, -0.06, P=0.686, 0.956). Correlation coefficients of liver fibrosis with 2D-SWE in viral and non-viral hepatitis are 0.964,0.817 ( both P=0.000 ) with statistically significant difference (Z=2.42, P=0.015). The area under ROC for S≥2 and S=4 in viral and non-viral hepatitis were 0.964 and 0.930,0.817 and 0.906 respectively. The comparison was significantly different for S≥2 (Z=-2.47, P=0.014), while not for S=4 (Z=-0.502, P=0.616). Conclusion In liver fibrosis assessment, the diagnosis efficiency of 2D-SWE in patients with viral and non-viral hepatitis was different and dependent on fibrosis stage.

Objective To investigate the correlation between eigenvalues(λ∥ andλ⊥)of sciatic nerve and limb function in a rabbit model of acute nerve traction inj ury for finding the role ofλ∥ andλ⊥ on diagnosis of nerve inj uries.Methods The right sciatic nerves of 32 Newland rabbits were selected to be performed as traction injury,and then left sciatic nerves were treated as control for the sham operation side.MRI DTI scan was performed before and after the operation on 1 day ,3 day,and 1 week,2,3,4,6 and 8 weeks respectively.Theλ∥ andλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves and sham operated nerves were measured,meanwhile functional exami-nations were evaluated,and then analyzing the correlation betweenλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves and the score of inj ured limb function in the periods of 3 days to 8 weeks;finally different portions of sciatic nerve were removed for histological examinations.Results Theλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves in the proximal portion was slightly increased at 3 days and recovered to the normal at 2 weeks.Theλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves in the traction portion and distal portion were slightly raised at 1 day,reached to its maximum value at 3 days,and then decreased gradually after 1 week and dropped to the pre-operation level after 4 weeks.Theλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves in the proximal portions was significantly higher than that of the sham-operated nerves from 1 day to 1 week(F=7.275,P=0.000). Theλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves in the traction portion and distal portion were significantly higher than that of the sham-operated nerves from 1 day to 3 weeks(F=5.851,F=3.794,P=0.001,P=0.000).However,there was no significantly difference between theλ∥ of inj ured nerves in each portion and sham-operated nerves .The negative correlation between theλ⊥ of inj ured sciatic nerves in the distal portion and the score of the nerve function in the injured limb was found (r=-0.938,r=-0.897,P<0.01).Conclu-sion Theλ⊥ of inj ured nerves in the traction portion and distal portion could monitor the process of degeneration and regeneration of sciatic nerve in traction inj ury,while theλ∥ plays no obvious role in diagnosis of nerve inj uries.

Obje:ctive To establish an optimized method to isolate, culture and identify human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) in vitro and induce their osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. Methods The hUCMSCs were isolated from human umbilical cord by digestion with collagenase. After serial subcultivation in vitro, the stem cells were passaged. Morphologic appearance of hUCMSCs was observed under an optical microscope and atomic force microscope. The proliferation rate was measured by MTT assay. Cell cycle and surface antigens were measured by flow cytometry. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation was tested and evaluated by specific staining methods. Results The isolation of hUCMSCs by digestion with collagenase was efficient. After seeded for 24 hours, the adherent cells showed spindle shape and fibroblast cell-like shape and the size of hUCMSCs was homogeneous. The similar growth curves of passage 3 and 7 exhibited a great potential for proliferation. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that CD29, CD44 and CD105 were highly expressed on the surface of passages 3 cells, but the expression was negative for CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR. After culture in inducing medium, the cells were successfully induced into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages. These cells were highly positive for alkaline phosphate staining and also showed mineralization presented with von kossa staining after 4 weeks' culture induction of osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, liquid vacuoles were detected by oil red O staining after 3 weeks' culture induction of adipogenic differentiation. Conclusion An in vitro method for isolation and purification of hUCMSCs from human umbilical cord has been established. The cultured cells were composed of only undifferentiated cells and their biological properties were stable. The hUCMSCs are expected to be a new type of stem cells of tissue engineering.
