Objective To study high-frequency ultrasonic features of pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS).Methods High-frequency ultrasonic findings in 17 cases with PVNS were analyzed and a comparison between surgical and pathological results was made.Results Of 17 cases,10 cases were diffuse type,7 cases were local type.The main high-frequency ultrasonic signs were as follows: the diffused type synovial PVNS demonstrated as hypoecho,local synovial proliferation was revealed as nodulated and heterogeneous echo,hydrarthrosis of the knee joint was present in 10 cases,the involvement of meniscus occurred in 4 cases,intra-articular cartilage and cortex erosion were showed in 5 cases.Local type PVNS was mainly demonstrated as the nodulated and hypoechoic proliferation of synovium,hydrarthrosis of the joint and cartilage erosion were not found.Conclusions High-frequency ultrasound is a valuable imaging method for diagnosing PVNS in preoperative routine screening.

Objective To investigate the effects of captopril on structure and function of sciatic nerve in diabetic rats. Methods Streptozotocin induced diabetic male Sprague Dawley rats were treated with 0.1% captopril in drinking water for 12 weeks, then advanced glycation end products (AGEs), cAMP content, and the nerve conduction velocity of sciatic nerve in diabetic rats were measured, morphometric quantitative analysis and ultrastructure of sural nerve were also performed. Results Captopril reduced accumulation of AGEs, restored synthesis of cAMP in sciatic nerve, improved nerve conduction velocity partialy, and ameliorated morphology abnormalities in myelin nerve fibre. Conclusion These findings suggest that captopril may exert a therapeutic effects on diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Objective　To study the effect of portal vein blocking on the permeability of the intestinal mucosa in pigs. Methods　Healthy Rongchang pigs were divided into 3 groups: ① sham operation group(SO), ② portal vein clamping for 45 min group (PVC-45'), ③ portal vein clamping for 60 min group (PVC-60'). Urine lactulose/mannitol(L/M) ratio was measured after portal vein blocking. Results　The L/M ratio was increased significantly (P<0.05) in PVC-45' and 60' groups than in SO group, with that of PVC-60' higher than that of PVC-45' group, but not significantly. Conclusion　The increase of intestinal mucosal permeability after portal vein blocking is an early and important index for the damage of the intestinal mucosa barrier.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect and safety of paracetamol in premature infants with patent ductus arteriosus(PDA). Method A protrospective comparsion study was performed onthe data of premature infants with PDA. Seventy-two premature infants with echocardiographically comfirmed PDA were randomized into the oral paracetamol group(n1=18) and the ibuprofen group(n2=54), and the rate of ductal closure, side effects and complications were compared between the two groups. Results The ductus was 66.7% (12 infants) in the paracetamol group, which was similar to 70.4% (38 cases) in the ibuprofen group, with no significant difference(χ2=0.087,P=0.768).Except for the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia in the paracetamol group was higher than that in the ibuprofen group (P<0.05), no statistical differences were found in the other index (P>0.05), including oliguria,NEC,renal impairment,the incidence of IVH3-4 and gastrointestinal bleeding. Conclusions The clinical effect of paracetamol in premature infants with PDA is similar to that of ibuprofen , withlower incidence of hyperbilirubinemia, and paracetamol is worthy of amplication in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the proliferation and analyze the protein expression of the Hela cells by the regulation of glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) that acts as the donor of nitric oxide.Methods Cell morphology and MTT assay were used to analyze cell proliferation.Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and computer-assisted image analysis find the spots of interests. Difference of protein expression between GTN-treating group and control group was detected.Results Hela cells treated with 40?g/ml GTN in culture medium underwent inhibition of the growth activity, which were not clustered and shriveled. Some atypia cells were observed.Density of the cells was obviously decreased(0.0825, P

AIM:To screen the gene expression profiles of normal gastric mucosa,primary gastric cancer and metastatic lymph nodes by gene expression microarray and the associated genes with lymph node metastasis by bioinformatics. METHODS:The differentially expressed genes of nontumorous gastric mucosa (group A),primary gastric cancer (group B) and metastatic lymph nodes (group C) were screened by gene expression microarray obtained from Affymetrix company. The results were further analyzed by bioinformatic software including Gene Expression Profiles Analysis of Cohort Experiment,Gene Ontology Enrichment Analysis and Pathway Significant Analysis. The expression of TLN1 in group A,B and C were confirmed by real-time reverse transcription PCR. RESULTS:278 genes were persistent up-regulated in group A,B,C,which participated mainly in immunologic responses,cell adhesion,phosphate transport,inorganic anion transport,cell chemotaxis,cell motility and signal transduction. While 387 genes were persistent down-regulated in group A,B,C,which were concerned with digestion,glucide metabolism,lipid metabolism,protein metabolism,one-carbon compound metabolism,nitrogen compound catabolism and cell adhesion. The pathway analysis suggested that integrin-mediated cell adhesion pathway were abnormally regulated. These genes including THBS1,TLN,CAPN3,ITGAX,SORBS1,CAPN6,CAPN9 were continuous up-regulated or down-regulated in integrin-mediated cell adhesion pathway. The expressions of TLN1 in group A,B,C were 0.0000342?0.0000711,0.1064?0.1251 and 0.2886?0.3529,respectively. The expression of TLN1 in metastatic lymph nodes was significantly higher than that in nontumorous gastric mucosa and primary gastric cancer (P
