To observe the effects of polyclonal antibodies to rat LPS binding protein on LPS induced activation of NF ?B and production of TNF ? and IL 6 in the lung. The activation of NF ?B and the contents of TNF ? and IL 6 were measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay and ELISA respectivly. We found that both the activity of NF ?B and the levels of TNF ? and IL 6 in the lung were significantly decreased by the antibodies when used at early stage, but not at late stage after LPS challenge. These data indicated that the antibodies to LPS binding protein might have a potential value in the prevention of acute lung injury as a result of LPS challenge.

Objective:To valuate the relationships between operation modus,pathological characteristics and the prognosis on hilar cholangiocinoma(HCC). Methods:The clinical features,diagnostic methods,operation modus and histopathology results of the 223 cases with HCC were analyzed retrospectively. Results:1) Radical excision had been performed in 85 cases with the excision rate of 38.1%,1,3,5 years survival rates were 58.8%,30.9%,8.8% respectively. Palliative therapy had been performed in 110 cases; the median life span was 8 months. The average life span of those who had given up treatment was about 5 months. 2) In 132 cases of HCC,121 cases were adenocarcinoma,accounting for 91.7%. Well-differentiated was 29 cases (24.0%),medium-differentiated was 43 cases (35.5%),and poor-differentiated was 49 cases(40.5%). The others accounted for 8.3%,in total. The 1,3,5 years survival rate after radical excision of the well-differentiated and the medium-differentiated groups were 55.0%,40.0% and 15.0% respectively,those of the poor-differentiated group were 45.8%,16.7% and 0% respectively. 3) According to the Bismuth Corlette grouping type I was 20.1%,type II was 23.2%,type IIIa was 10.3%,type IIIb was 23.2%,type IV was 7.2%,and the others were 16.0%. Conclusions:1)Radical excision is the key to raise the long-term survival rate. The average life span of those who had given up treatment was about 5 months,which can reflect the natural life span. 2) Poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma accounted for considerable proportion in histopathology types of the hilar cholangiocarcinoma. 3)Bismuth Corlette grouping has some certain limit and disadvantages in the application.

OBJECTIVE To recognize the frontal recess cells and analyze their distributional characteristics during image navigation assisted endoscopic sinus surgery. METHODS 20 cases(39 sides)of chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps were observed in this study. The fontal recess cells and frontal sinus were opened under the endoscope and the distributional characteristics were observed and recorded, and then confirmed by the image navigation system. RESULTS Centred on frontal sinus ostium, frontal recess cells were divided into three areas: the agger nasi cell(ANC)and frontal cells(FC)are located in front of frontal sinus ostium(FS); frontal septum cells(IFSSC)and terminal cells(RT)are located at the same plane of FS; supra-ethmoidal bulla recess(SBR), frontal bulla cell(FBC)and super-obital cells(SOEC)are in the posterior area. The coincidence of identification for ANC, FCI and II, SBR, FBC and IFSSC under endoscope and image navigation is 100%, the coincidence of identification for FS is 89.7%, SOEC 80%, RT 71.4% and FC III and IV 60%. CONCLUSION The distribution of the frontal recess cells around the frontal ostium showed a fixed pattern.It would well benefit the orientation of frontal ostium and the opening of frontal sinus. Furthermore, it is significant for the orientation and opening of the frontal recess cells.

OBJECTIVETo explore the temporal pattern of postmortem color changes in the pupil region of the cornea for noninvasive estimation of the postmortem interval (PMI).
METHODSTwo rabbit models of air embolism and drowning were established in a dark room at a temperature of 20 ℃ with a relative humidity of 30%. The corneal images of the rabbits were acquired using a digital camera at two-hour intervals within 72 h after death. The pupil region on the corneal images was segmented using computer image processing technique (MATLAB), and the parameters of 6 image color features (RGBHSV) were extracted. Regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between these parameters and the PMI, and the effects of different death causes on the changes of the corneal color features were also assessed.
RESULTSWithin 72 h after death from different causes, the R, G and B values of the pupil region on the corneal images all tended to increase with the PMI, showing a good fitting with the PMI ( < 0.01). No significant correlation was found between the values of H, S and V and the PMI (>0.05). The R, G and B values in the pupil region on the corneal images showed consistent variation trends after death from the two causes, and their correlations with PMI were also similar. The measured values of R, G and B in air embolism group were greater than those in the drowning group.
CONCLUSIONSThe postmortem color changes of the pupil region on corneal images follow an identifiable temporal pattern and can vary across different causes of death. The regression equations established in this study provide references for non-invasive and objective estimation of the PMI.
