Objective To determine the efficacy and safety of intravenous iron sucrose and oral iron dextran in renal anemia patients. Methods Sixty renal anemia patients were randomized into two groups:intravenous iron group(IV group, 100 mg iron sucrose twice a week) and oral iron group(oral group, 150 mg iron dextran every day). The changes in hemoglobin (Hb),hematocrit (Hct),serum ferritin (SF),and transferrin saturation (TSAT) were assessed on week 4,8, and 12 after treatment. The maintenance dosages of erythropoietin (EPO) after reaching treatment target and the adverse events were also observed. Results Hb increased after treatment in IV group [(79.87 ± 13.19) g/L to (106.11 ± 12.38) g/L] and oral group [(85.41 ± 11.49) g/L to (94.68 ± 10.06) g/L],and compared with that before treatment, there was significant difference in each group(P< 0.01 ). Also significant difference showed in Hb levels after treatment between two groups(P< 0.01 ). SF and TSAT levels were higher after treatment in IV group than those in oral group (P < 0.01 ). The adverse event was lower in IV group (0) than that in oral group (16.7%,5/30).Conclusions Oral iron dextran which has more adverse events and poor efficacy in curing anemia, can not correct anemia ideally. Meanwhile intravenous iron sucrose has positive effects on renal anemia with low adverse events, and it can be used as a long term iron supplementation in hemodialysis patients.

Objective To evaluate values of laparoscope,duodenoscope,choledochoscope and seven procedures for extrahepatic biliary calculi.Methods From Junuary 2002 to June 2006,clinical data of 246 cases of extrahepatic biliary calculi treated by three kinds of endoscope and seven procedures were reviewed retrospectively.Laparoscope(Ⅰa) was used in 8 cases,duodenoscope(Ⅰb) in 27 cases,choledochoscope(Ⅰc) in 17 cases,laparoscope combined with choledochoscope(Ⅱa) in 83 cases(including transferred 9 cases),laparoscope combined with duodenoscope(Ⅱb) in 102 cases,choledochoscope combined with duodenoscope(Ⅱc) in 3 cases(all transferred),combined three kinds of endoscope(Ⅲ) in 21 cases(containing transferred 3 cases).Results The success rate of all procedures was 82%-100% without severe complications.Residual stones in biliary tracts were removed once again successfully in 10 cases.The mean of follow-up period was 25.6 months(range,3 months to 4 years).No biliary tract stenosis was observed in 202 cases and stone recurred in 15 cases.Conclusions Three kinds of endoscope and seven procedures supplement minimally invasive treatment.As seven procedures have different indications respectively,the principle "one endoscope preference,main application of two endoscopes,and reasonable application of three endoscopes" should be followed.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of familial adrenocorticotropin-independent macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (AIMAH). Methods The clinical and laboratory data of 3 patients with familial AIMAH were retrospectively analyzed. Results Case 1 was the proband. The mean age of onset of familial AIMAH was 59.3 years, and mean duration of disease was 6.7 years. The plasma ACTH levels of case 1 and case 2 were below 2.2pmol/L, and the secretion rhythm of serum cortisol in them was disorderly. Low or high dose of dexamethasone failed to suppress cortisol secretion in case 1, while only low dose of dexamethasone failed to suppress cortisol secretion in case 2. In case 3, all the plasma cortisol, ACTH level and their secretion rhythm were normal, and either low or high dose of dexamethasone suppressed cortisol secretion successfully. Ultrasound examination revealed multiple hypoechoic nodules in both adrenal glands, and CT scanning showed bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia in all 3 cases. Pituitary MR imaging was normal in all 3 cases. Conclusions The pathogenesis of sporadic and familial AIMAH remains unclear. Familial AIMAH provides an evidence that genetic transmission of the disease may happen. The clinical characteristics of familial AIMAH are similar to those of sporadic AIMAH. It is possible that some subclinical cases among familial AIMAH ascape the diagnosis.

Objective To observe recombinant plasmids were constructed with the macrophage colony-stimulating factor ( GM-SCF) , interleukin -21 (IL-21) and retinoic acid early transcription factor-1 (Rae-1), and observe the inhibitory effects in subcutaneous liver cancer model in mice with the recombinant plasmids.Methods The recombinant plasmids of GM-SCF, IL-21 and Rae-1 were constructed with RT-PCR method, mouse model was constructed, the model mice were randomly divided into six groups including control, IRES/GFP, IRES/IL21, IRES/GM-SCF, IRES/GM-SCF-IL21 and IRES/combination with 10 mice included in each group, each groups (15 mice) were treated with the corresponding gene therapy.The survival rate were observed after 60 days.The blood levels of interferon -γ(IFN-γ) and interleukin -2 (IL-2) were detected in each group.Results The pGM-CSF-GFP-IRES-Rae-1-IL-21 has been successfully constructed.All mice had demised 14 and 16 days after treatment in the control and IRES/GFP groups, respectively.There were 2, 1, 11 mice remaining after 60 days of treatment in the IRES/GM-SCF, IRES/IL21 and IRES/GM-SCF-IL21 groups respectively.The survival rate of mice at 60 days of treatment was 73.33%, 13.33%, and 6.67% for groups IRES/GM-SCF-IL21, IRES/GM-SCF and IRES/IL21, respectively.The survival rate of the mice was significantly higher in IRES/GM-SCF-IL21 than the other groups.The levels of IL-2 and INF-γof mice 1-6 days after treatment gradually increased in the IRES/combination groups, including IRES/GM-SCF-IL21, IRES/GM-SCF and IRES/IL21.They were highest in the IRES/combination group and lowest (P<0.01) in the IRES/GM-SCF and IRES/IL21 groups, with the IRES/GM-SCF-IL21 group showing intermediate levels.By 6-10 days after treatment, IL-2 and INF-γlevels had stably increased in the IRES/combination groups, but had gradually decreased in the IRES/GM-SCF-IL21, IRES/GM-SCF and IRES/IL21 groups.At the end of treatment, IL-2 and INF-γlevels were significantly (P<0.01) higher in the IRES/GM-SCF-IL21 than were found in either the IRES/GM-SCF group or IRES/IL21 group, which were also significantly (P<0.01) higher than either the IRES/GFP or control groups.The levels of IL-2 and INF-γwere highest in the IRES/combination group ( P<0.01) and not significantly different among the IRES/GM-SCF, IRES/IL21, IRES/GFP, and control groups.Conclusion The inhibitory effects in subcutaneous liver cancer model in mice were obvious significantly, and its mechanism maybe be related to the activation of the body's immune.

BACKGROUND:The biomechanical effect of the implant-bone interface is one of the most important factors for bone resorption. The new structure of the periodontal-ligament-like implants may improve the distribution of the interfacial stress. OBJECTIVE:To discuss the effect of the internal structure changes of traditional implants on the cortical bone stress distribution and peak at the implant-bone interface under different occlusal load conditions, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the optimization design and clinical application of new structure implants. METHODS:Two kinds of digital models, new structure implant (model A) and non-threaded cylindrical implant (model B), were established by Pro/ENGINEER software. Variations of the stress peak and stress distribution of implant-bone interface cortical bone area under the same bone and force environment were analyzed using Ansys software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Under a vertical loading, the stress peak under different forces was reduced by 17.54% in model A compared with model B; under a 45° loading, the stress peak of model A was reduced by 2.59% compared with model B, and it showed an evident tendency of high stress area focusing to the buccal side of model B. Under the chew-simulation loading, the stress peak of model A was lower than that of model B. The biggest difference (0.353 2 MPa) appeared atβ=12°(β is the angle of force direction and the implant axis), and it gradualy reduced atβ > 12°. At the same time, model A had a wider range of application degree compared with model B in two quantitative indicators, including optimal peak stress of promoting bone tissue growth and stress peak of maintaining healthy bone tissue. These results suggest that the optimized structure of implants contributes to improve the cortical bone stress distribution at the implant-bone interface, decrease the peak stress, and reduce the risk of cortical bone absorption in a wider range.
