We have established adriamycin(ADR) nephropathy model, the expression of cyclophilin(CyP)mRNA was measured with RT PCR, and its relationship with the levels of total protein, albumin, cholesterol, 24 hour urine protein, BUN, and creatinine were determined.After four weeks,the levels of urine protein in ADR nephropathy animals were higher than 100mg/24h, whereas the levels in the control animals were lower than 6mg/24h. It was showed that the expression of CyP gene of kidney tissue in ADR nephropathy rats was significantly higher than that of the control animals. Meanwhile, it was found that there was negative correlation was found between the expression of Cyp gene and the levels of total protein and albumin,but positive correlation between the expression of CyP gene and the levels of 24 hour urine protein and cholesterol,and the expression of CyP gene had no correlation with the levels of BUN and creatinine. Our results suggested that the high levels of Cyp mRNA expression might contribute to renel tissue damage in ADR nephropathy,and it might reflect the degree of severity and prognosis in ADR nephropathy.

Objective To study the clinical significance of recognizing Zuckerkandl tubercle (ZT) during thyroid surgery. Methods One hundred and sixty-one patients (218 sides) having underwent thyroid lobectomy or thyroidectomy were retrospectively analyzed. The presence of ZT, the position and size of ZT, and the relationship between ZT and recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), superior parathyroid (SP) were observed. Results In 218 sides, 179 sides (82.1%) found ZT, with right side in 93 cases and left side in 86 cases. The main relationship between ZT and RLN was A type, accounting for 90.5%(162/179). There were no statistical differences in ZT grade and the relationship type between ZT and RLN between left side and right side (P>0.05). There was negative correlation in ZT grade and the relationship type between ZT and RLN (r=-0.269, P<0.01). In right side, 92.3%(72/78) of SP located on the top of ZT at 10-11 o′clock position;in left side, 94.6%(70/74) of SP located on the top of ZT at 1-2 o′clock position. Conclusions ZT is an important anatomical mark in the thyroid surgery, which helps to identify and protect the RLN and SP, so as to reduce surgical complications.

Objective To present our experience of dealing with complete penile amputation.Methods Two cases of penile complete amputation were reported.The first case was a 34-year-old man,suffered amputation of the penis approximately 2.5 cm distal from the pubic area with a sharp knife.3.5hours later,the patient was transferred to our hospital.The urethra mucosa and corpus spongiosum were anastomosed.The cavernous body of the penis was reattached by suturing the tunics albuginea of each corpus cavernosum to the corresponding proximal segment.One dorssl artery,two dorsal veins,and dorsal nerve were anastomosed under a 10 × microscope with interrupted 9-0 nylon nonabsorbable sutures.The second case was a 25-year-old man,presented to the emergency room 15 hours after distal penile amputation,which had 2 wounds as a result of self-mutilation caused by psychiatric problems.The urethra mucosa and corpus spongiosum were anastomosed.The cavernous body of the penis was reattached by suturing the tunics albuginea of each corpus cavemosum to the corresponding proximal segment using 4-0 polyglactic acid sutures.Results In the first case,the tourniquet was released after replantation,and the distal penis appeared to revascularize,as noted by the gradual increase in redness and size.An arterial pulse was detected,and the superficial penile veins displayed normal turgor,and no bleeding was found.On postoperative day 3,the penile skin started to necrotize.On day 12,the necrotic skin was superficially debrided,and a fistula was observed in the corresponding urethral segment.Two weeks later,the fistula was sutured with 4-0 interrupted synthetic absorbable suture,and a transposition flap to embed the whole injured penis shaft was created from the proximal scrotal skin.The glans was exposed.Two months after the second operation,the embedded penis was released from the scrotum.After follow-up of two years,the patient had glans re-epithelialization with normal voiding,sensation,and erections.In the second case,the glans was still pink,but the penile skin started to necrotize on postoperative day 3.On day 14,serious infections were noted,the necrotic skin was superficially debrided,and the amputated penis was relieved.Conclusions Prompt diagnosis and early treatment are essential to avoid the potential complications of ischemic necrosis and autoamputation.Venous outflow is a critical factor for success of replantation.Microsurgical reanastomosing of the dorsal penile vein,penile arteries,and dorsal nerves can be identified as the standard method for penile replantation.The bipedicled scrotal flap can provide adequate skin cover for penis defects.

Objective To establish a calculation method for the voiding work parameters by using the detrusor power curve and to evaluate its clinic efficacy.Methods From January 2001 to January 2011,132 male patients with benign prostate hyperplasia who underwent urodynamic tests were retrospectively reviewed.The patients' age ranged from 45 to 84 years old (mean 57 years old).All patients had no previous history of neurological disease and no positive findings in neurological examinations.The voiding work of bladder,the voiding power of bladder and voiding energy consumption were calculated by using the detrusor power curve method and the linearized passive urethral resistance relation analysis was conducted.According to the detrusor status,all patients were divided into the decreased detrusor pressure group,the normal detrusor pressure group and the increased detrusor pressure group.Meanwhile,normal urethral resistance group and the increased urethral resistance group were classified according to the urethral resistance status.The detrusor pressure at maximal flow rate (PdetQmax),the maximal flow rate (Qmax),the projected isovolumetric pressure (PIP),the voiding work,the voiding power and the voiding energy consumption were compared among the different groups.Results There were 56 cases,58 cases,18 cases in the decreased,normal and the increased detrusor pressure group respectively.The voiding work were (1.1 ± 0.5)J,(1.7± 0.7)J,(2.1±1.2)J; the voiding power were (15.3±7.3)mW,(31.9±12.6)mW,(42.5±21.1)mW; and the voiding energy consumption were (3.9± 1.2) J/L,(5.2± 1.9) J/L,(6.2±3.2) J/L in those three groups,respectively.With the increasing of detrusor pressure,PdetQ Q PIP,the voiding work,the voiding power and the voiding energy consumption all increased among three groups with significant difference (P< 0.05).There were 51 cases,81 cases in the normal and the increased urethral resistance group.The voiding work were (1.5±0.7)J and (1.5±0.8)J;the voiding power were (32.3±13.2)mW and (22.6±16.3)mW and the voiding energy consumption were (3.8±0.7) J/L and (5.4±2.4) J/L in two groups.The increased urethral resistance group had higher PdetQmax and voiding energy consumption (P<0.05) and lower Qmax and voiding power (P<0.05) than those in the normal urethral resistance group.However,the differences of PIP (P =0.438) and the voiding work (P =0.546) between the two groups were not determined.Conclusions The detrusor power curve method can be used to calculate the work parameters of voiding.This method can be applied to evaluate the compensatory state of bladder and is conductive to urodynamic analysis in low detrusor pressure status.Both detrusor pressure and urethral resistance had significant impact on the work capacity of bladder.
