Objective To study the clinical characteristic and the surgical treatment of the patients with familial adenomatous polyposis(FAP). Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical feature and operative procedures of 28 patients with FAP in our hospital in recent 14 years. Of the 28 patients, 20 patients had familial history, 6 had cancerization. Results All the patients received operation, ileal pouch- anal anastomosis(IPAA) were performed on 25 cases(89.29%) , 3 cases underwent other operations. No severe complications had taken place postoperatively. All the patients received non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) or tamoxifen treatment. All the patients were followed-up for 2-14 years, 4 patients died(14.29%) during follow-up period. Life quality and bowel function after operation were good in the aliving patients. No polyp in ileum pouch was seen. Conclusions Surgical treatment is the main methods for FAP, it can prevent bowel polyp carceration. Use of NSAIDs or tamoxifen as an adjuvant treatment of FAP is useful in the prevention of FAP recurrence.

As an important way to maintain the internal environment of the human body, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the diabetic cognitive dysfunction, which may associate with insulin resistance, inflammatory reaction, oxidative stress and other mechanisms. Traditional Chinese Medicine can improve cognitive function of diabetes, in which RAS may play a role.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of arthroscopic debridement techniques for osteoarthrosis of the elbow in nonathlete patients. Methods Twenty-six nonathlete patients with elbow osteoarthrosis were treated with arthroscopic debridement from January 1999 to January 2006.Of the 26 patients,23 were followed for 4～86 months (mean,23 months).All of the 23 patients had complained of pain and loss of elbow motion and 4 patients had symptoms of ulnar neuritis. The Mayo Elbow Performance Score was used as evaluation criteria of the efficacy. Results Twenty-three patients were followed for 4～86 months (mean, 23 months). Twenty elbows (87%) were not painful or were only mildly painful, and three (13%) were moderately painful. The mean arc of flexion-extension was improved from 99.6? (range, 65?～135?) preoperatively to 122.1? (range, 80?～150?) at the time of follow-up. According to the Mayo Elbow Performance Score, the result was excellent in 16 elbows, good in 4, and fair in 3, with a rate of excellent or good results of 87%. Symptoms of ulnar neuritis disappeared in the 3 patients and continued without aggravation in the remaining 1 patient. Fourteen patients were greatly satisfied with the results, 6 satisfied, and 3 unsatisfied, the satisfactory rate being 87%. One patient reported a delayed ulnar nerve symptoms after operation. Conclusions Arthroscopic debridement techniques for elbow osteoarthrosis in nonathlete patients can yield satisfactory pain relief, significant increase in the range of motion, and quick recovery.

Objective To analyse the clinical characteristics of male hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.Methods Clinical data of 87 cases of male hypogonadotropic hypogonadism were retrospectively analyzed.Results Mean age was(18.8?4)years old,and 25 patients were diagnosed as Kallman syndrome.The level of serum LH,FSH,and T was low,and LH responded poorly to GnRH stimulation.Most patients' bone age was delayed,and all patients' CT or MRI of pituitary was normal.Conclusion According to the above clinical features,and testosterone replacement or hCG and/or plus hMG are the choice of treatment.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of interventional therapy in all kinds of pelvic trauma emergency.Methods There were tolally 16 cases in this paper(13 male and 3 female, 17～45 years old with average 31 years old). All patients had blood loose shock ( different blood pressure drop, limb pulse weakness and so on ). The blood pressure was(50～100)mmHg/(20～60) mmHg before interventional therapy,emergency selective external iliac artery, internal iliac artery and/or bleeding artery embolization and artery occlusion broken operation were performed. After operation pay attention to observe the life physical sign.Results Bleeding of internal iliac artery trunk,internal pudendum artery and obturator artery was in 8,3 and 4 cases respectively;1 case had thrombosis in external iliac artery.After emergency interventional treatment, blood pressure rose again progressively and became stability(90～120) mmHg/(60～90) mmHg,no serious complication presented.Conclusion The interventional treatment is the rapid and reasonable selection to cure the pelvic closed vessal injury and to save life.

AIM: To study the dynamic expression of protease-activated receptors-1 (PAR-1) after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and the influence of Nao Xue Kang Tablet (NXKT) on it's expression. METHODS: 72 Wistar rats were divided into normal group, ICH model groups (ICH, 6 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d), Nao Xue Kang groups (NXKT, 6 h, 24 h, 3 d,7 d). ICH models were produced with the induction of collagenase typeⅦ-S, except normal group. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect PAR-1 protein and RT-PCR technique was used to detect PAR-1 mRNA in brain tissues around the haematoma at different time points of different groups. RESULTS: PAR-1 protein and mRNA were mildly positive in normal group. In ICH model groups, intensity of PAR-1 expression started to increase at 6 h, and further increased at 24 h. PAR-1 expression reached the peak at 3 d and began to descend. At 7 d the decent was obvious. At 6 h, 24 h, 3 d, and 7 d time points, the PAR-1 protein positive cell number and PAR-1 mRNA absorbance ratio in ICH model and NXKT groups were significantly higher than those in normal group (P

AIM: To study the dynamic expression of protease - activated receptors - 1 (PAR- 1 ) after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and the influence of Nao Xue Kang Tablet (NXKT) on it's expression. METHODS: 72 Wistar rats were divided into normal group, ICH model groups (ICH, 6 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d), Nao Xue Kang groups (NXKT, 6 h, 24 h, 3 d,7 d).ICH models were produced with the induction of collagenase typeⅦ - S, except normal group. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect PAR- 1 protein and RT- PCR technique was used to detect PAR- 1 mRNA in brain tissues around the haematoma at different time points of different groups. RESULTS: PAR - 1 protein and mRNA were mildly positive in normal group. In ICH model groups, intensity of PAR - 1 expression started to increase at 6 h, and further increased at 24 h. PAR - 1 expression reached the peak at 3 d and began to descend. At 7 d the decent was obvious. At 6 h, 24 h, 3 d, and 7 d time points, the PAR-1 protein positive cell number and PAR- 1 mRNA absorbance ratio in ICH model and NXKT groups were significantly higher than those in normal group ( P ＜0.05 or P ＜ 0.01). The PAR- 1 protein positive cell number and PAR- 1 mRNA absorbance ratio in NXKT group were significantly lower than in ICH model group ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01 ). CONCLUSION: After ICH,PAR - 1 is continuously activated because of the stimulation of thrombin. Action of thrombin after ICH may be mediated by PAR- 1; NXKT may inhibit the activation of PAR- 1, so the praxiology is improved. This may be one of the main mechanisms that NXKT could facilitate the recovery of nervous function.

Objective To establish an experimental animal model of hypertriglyceridemic(HTG)panereatitis by using special lipoprotein lipase(LPL)deficient HTG heterozygous mice.Methods LPL deficient HTG heterozygous mice and wild type mice were divided into experiment group and control group,then each group was subdivided into 12 h,24 h subgroup.Acute pancreatitis(AP)was induced by caerulein intra-abdominal injection for 7 times(50μg/kg)at the interval of 1 h;the mice in the control group received same amount of normal ssline.The serum level of TG,amylase was determined,and morphologic changes were scored.Results The serum level of TG in LPL deficient HTG heterozygous mice was(3.55±0.27)mmol/L,which was significantly higher than that of wild type mice[(0.94±0.18)mmol/L,P＜0.05].The serum level of TG and amylase in heterozygous mice at 12 h was(3.55±0.27)mmol/L and(3685±484)U/L,which was significantly higher than those in wild type mice[(0.92±0.11)mmol/L and(2501±410)U/L,P＜0.05].The pancreatic tissue edema,necrosis,bleeding and inflammatory cell infiltration score was 3.94 ±0.21,3.94±0.21,1.84±0.25 and 1.84±0.25 in heterozygous mice,which was significantly higher than that of wild type mice(3.06±0.01,2.52±0.51,0.46±0.22 and 0.58±0.38,P＜0.05).Conclusions The serum level of TG was moderately and stably elevated in heterozygous mice.The mice developed more severe panereatitis after caemlein induction.which was an ideal experimental model for study of mechanism of HTG pancreatitis.

Objective To investigate the clinical outcomes of trans-facet joints approach to treat thoracic degenerative disease with anterior compression.Methods From January 2003 to December 2009,22 patients with thoracic myelopathy caused by anterior compression were studied retrospectively.The patients included 16 males and 6 females,aged from 36 to 72 years(average 54.2 years).There were thoracic ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament(OPLL)in 11 cases,thoracic disc protrusion with ossification in 8 cases,thoracic vertebra posterior osteophytes in 2 cases,ankylosing spondylitis with thoracic pseudoarthrosis in 1 cases.Preoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)score was 5.2(range,2-9).The characteristic of thoracic degeneration was analyzed by CT and MRI examination.Posterior decompressive laminectomies were performed by the technique of "cap uncovering".The facet joints were removed bilaterally.Anterior ossified compressions were cut via posterior-lateral approach,and then intervertebral bone graft and bilateral pedicle screws were implanted.Results All patients were followed up for 8 to 38 months.According to the revised Epstein standard,there were excellent in 7 patients,good in 9,fair in 4,and poor in 2.The total effective rate was 90.9%(20/22).The excellent and good rate was 72.7%(16/22).The mean postoperative JOA score was 8.7(range,2-11).Surgical complications included dural laceration in 1 patient,pleura injury in 1 patient,epidural hematoma in 2 patients.There were no cases of spinal instability or deep infection.Conclusion The anterior compression can be solved completely via trans-facet joints approach in thoracic degenerative disease patients.

Objective To explore a new pathogenic gene mutationin in COL4A3 and COL4A4 genes of a family with thin-basement-membrane nephropathy (TBMN), and explain its mechanism.Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from blood samples.Mutation screening for all the exons in COL4A3 and COL4A4 of the proband was carried out by direct PCR sequencing.The sequences of the proband were compared with standard sequences in GenBank.After identifying the mutation in COL4A4, screening for the mutation site in 200 healthy controls and the rest of family members were conducted.RNA sequence of the proband was analyzed by reverse transcription PCR and TA cloning.The positive clones were sequenced for RNA screening.Results There was a G to A mutation in the 1459 site of COL4A4 (c.1459+G ＞ A) in the proband, her mother, and the elder sister, whereas the mutation was not found in other family members and healthy people.RNA screening showed that the COL4A4 (c.1459+G ＞ A) mutation was a heterozygous substitution in position + 1 of exon 21, in the splicing region.This mutation leaded to eliminating of exon 21 from the COL4A4 mRNA, causing the exon 21 deletion and frameshift mutation following the exon 20 in its amino acids sequence.Conclusions It is described that COL4A4 (c.1459+G ＞ A) is a new pathogenic mutation in TBMN, which further help understanding the pathogenesis and clinical diagnosis of TBMN.
