Objective To observe the extent of injury in esophageal mucosa resulted from Argon plasma coagulation (APC). Methods The injuries from APC were observed in 55 sites of esophageal normal mucosa in 11 patients with esophageal cancer. APC powers in 45 W,60 W and 90 W were selected with exposure times of 1 sec and 3 sec respectively. The probe of APC was hold approximately at 30?and 2 mm from the mucosa. The histological changes of esophageal wall injured by APC were examined under light and electric microscopy. Results The injuries in 46 out of 55 sites were merely restricted in the mucosa or sub-mucosa,7 out of 55 extended into the muscularis propria.and 2 of 9 sites extended to the whole depth of e-sophageal wall. The depth of injury increased in relation with the elevating of APC power (P 0. 05). Conclusion APC is a safe way for treating esophageal diseases if its power is limited in an appropriate range.

Objective To investigate whether antisense integrin αV and β3 gene therapy has antitumor activity for hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods In this study,120 male nude mice at the age of 4 weeks old were devided into 4 groups randomly.The antisense integrin αV and β3 expression vectors were iniected into HepG2 hepatomas established in nude mice to monitor tumor growth after 6 weeks.Tumot inhibit rate was calculated.Tunor microvessel density(MVD)was determined by immunohistochemical staining,and tumor apoptosis by TUNEL. Results The tumor weight of the control group,αV group,β3 group and αVβ3 group was(1.38±0.92)g、(1.28±0.27)g、(1.30±0.34)g、(1.08±0.16)g respectively.The difference between each two groups was significant(q12=4.76,q13=3.73,q14=14.28,P<0.05);The MVD was(17.53±1.88)、(16.06±1.92)、(15.83±2.00)、(14.86±1.69)respectively,(q12=3.91,q13=4.55,q14=7.13,P<0.01);The AI of the control group,αV group,β3 group and αVβ3 group was 10.53%±3.29%,19.80%±4.06%,21.93%±3.26%,24.03%±4.45%respectively,with the difference being significant among groups(q12=29.41,q13=33.52,q14=39.7,P<0.01).Conclusions Antisense gene therapy targeting αV and β3 integrins exerts dramatic inhibition on the growth of the tumor.

Objective To summary MRI findings and its diagnostic value of Balo's concentric sclerosis .Methods Brain MRI images of 4 cases with Balo's concentric sclerosis were studied with review of the literature in 13 cases.Results MRI showed multiple ring-like lesions within brains in 16 patients and single lesion only in 1.The deep white matters of cerebrum were involved in all patients.The cerebellum and brain stem were invaded in 2 and 4 respectively. Typical concentric sclerosis lesions demonstrated alternate middle and low signal rings on T1WI, middle and high on T2WI. The ring-like lesions were best seen on T1WI. The middle signal rings were enhanced on post-contrast images.The typical multiple sclerosis lesions were seen in 7 patients. Conclusion Balo's concentric sclerosis has characteristic findings on MRI.MRI is a very reliable diagnostic methed for this disease.

Objective To evaluate the influences of laryngeal mask airway(LMA) combined with epidural anesthesia on hemodynamics in hypertensive patients.Methods 72 gynecological patients with stage Ⅰ to Ⅱ hypertension were randomly divided into four groups(n=18 for each):general anesthesia with tracheal intubation(group G) or LMA(group L),combination of epidural anesthesia and general anesthesia with tracheal intubation(group GE) or LMA(group LE).BP,HR,ECG,SpO2 were monitored in different time.Intraoperative awareness,the time of extubation or LMA removal and anesthetic dosages were recorded.Results During insertion of the tube or LMA,SBP,DBP,HR were significantly higher than those before anesthesia in group G and GE(P

Objective To study the hydrogen sulfide productivity by mononuclear cells in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods Mononuclear cells were extracted from peripherial blood of 60 AF patients and 30 healthy controls. Modified methylene blue method was used to evaluate the hydrogen sulfide productivity of mononuclear cells. Results Hydrogen sulfide productivity of mononuclear cells from AF patients was 92.5%higher than that from control [10.63 (8.21~14.37) μmol/(min.g protein) vs 5.52 (4.42~8.50) μmol/(min.g protein)]. Hydrogen sulfide productivity of mononuclear cells was correlated with the left atrial transverse diameter (r = 0.276,P < 0.01), while no significant correlation was found between hydrogen sulfide and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter , left atrial anterior posterior diameter , C-reaction protein etc. Conclusion Hydrogen sulfide productivity of mononuclear cells from AF patients is promoted.

A method based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was established to analyze the changes of intracellular metabolites and study the toxic mechanisms of different concentrations of particulate matter (PM2.5) effecting the lung tissues in mice.Nasal drip experiments of PM2.5 suspensions (0, 7.5, 20.0, 37.5 g/L) for mice were carried out, and the intracellular metabolites in lung tissues were extracted, pretreated and analyzed.Principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least-squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were employed for pattern recognition, and an obvious distinction among different conditions was found.According to the PLS-DA loading diagram and variable important factor (VIP) value, 7 kinds of potential biomarkers, alanine, valine, leucine, ornithine, fumaric acid, citric acid and purine (p<0.01), were determined with significant differences between four different concentrations of PM2.5.Metabolic pathway analysis indicated that the oxidative stress reactions were enhanced, and the TCA cycle and the purine metabolism in lung cells were restrained after dripping PM2.5 to the lung tissues in mice.This study could provide a new perspective and theoretical basis for the further analysis on toxic mechanisms by PM2.5.

Objective To reproduce a scratch-wound model in cultured rat astrocytes (AST).Methods The secondary cultured AST prepared from newborn Wistar rat cerebral cortex were scratched with plastic pipette tips. The morphologic change of AST was observed through microscope at 10 min before and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h after injury, meanwhile the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakages in the cultured medium were determined.Results Immediately after injury the edge of the scratch was lined with irregularly shaped cell. 6 h after injury the AST processes began extending to cell-free area, and elongated further at 12 and 24 h after injury, with presented of new generated cells in the denuded area. At different times after injury, the LDH leakages of the experiment group were higher than that before injury ( P<0.05), and were higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05).Conclusion According to observed AST morphologic changes and determined LDH leakages in culture medium, the scratch-wound model in cultured rat AST is successfully reproduced.

Objective: To study the therapeutic effects of combined treatment with Chinese and western medicine in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Methods: 104 CP children were treated mainly with physiotherapy and acupuncture, together with occupational therapy, sensory integration and electrical stimulation. Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) was used to assess the effects of treatment. Results: After treatment for 3.29±0.80 months, the majority of CP children improved their IQ and limb symptoms, with decreased abnormal posture, increased muscle strength and improved motor developmental function. GMFM88 and GMFM66 scores had significantly increased after treatment. Conclusions: Combined treatment with Chinese and Western Medicine has confirmed effects on CP children.
