Gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs) are rarely one of gastrointestinal carcinomas that originate from mesenchymal tissue.GISTs are characterized by expression of CD117 receptor in cells and have variable biological phenotypes ranging from benign to highly malignant.The most common complaints of patients with GISTs are abdominal pain,peptic ulcer,bleeding or/and obstruction in digestive tract.GISTs have an extraordinarily high rate of recurrence after surgical resection and are highly resistant to radiation and standard chemotherapy.The imatinib mesylate(Gleevec) is a selective inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase receptor.The outcome for the patients with GISTs treated by Gleevec was promising in terms of immediate response and survival fraction.Recent research shows that a new targeting therapeutic agent,SU11248,can prolong the survival time of the patients with GISTs who were resistant to Gleevec therapy.

The hydride generation technique was used to determination of germanium in the presence of L-cysteine.The GeH4 was absorbed and coloured by a mixed solution of 2-(5-NO2-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenyl(5-NO2-PADAP),NaClO and (CH2)6NH+.The maximum absorption of the colour complex was at 564nm.Its apparent molar absorption coefficient was 1.84×105L·mol-1·cm-1.Beer＇s law was obeyed for 0～500μg/L germanium.The recoveries of spiked samples were in the range of 89%～97%,while the relative standard deviation was less than 6.3%.This method is sensitive,simple and reproducible.The method has been applied to the determination of Ge in the chinese medicine with satisfactory result.

Background and Purpose:Pancreatic cancer is malignant tumor of the digestive tract with poor prognosis and is not sensitive to conventional chemotherapy.This study investigates the safety and feasibility of regional arterial ligation followed by intra-arterial perfusion chemotherapy in 14 pigs divided into groups A,B and C.Methods:14 pigs were divided into 3 groups.Group A(n=5) underwent gastroduodenal artery ligation and catheterization through the right gastroepiploic artery.Group B(n=5) underwent splenic artery ligation and catheterization.Group C(n=4) underwent left periotic vein puncture.5-FU(20mg/kg) was perfused into these catheters in 60 min.Blood samples and pancreatic tissue were obtained for the purposes of the determination of drug concentration and pathological diagnosis.Results:At 80 min and 100 min the drug concentration in portal vein of group A and group B were higher than those of group C(P

Objective To explore the feasibility of laparoscopically intracorporeal delta-shaped anastomosis in distal gastrectomy.Methods 82 consecutive patients with distal gastric cancer received laparoscopic distal gastrectomy, including intracorporeal delta-shaped anastomosis in 39 cases, and handassisted Billroth-Ⅰ anastomosis in 43 cases.The operative time, blood loss, anastomosis time were compared between the two groups.Results There were no differences between the two groups with regard to the operative time [(215 ± 24) min vs.(207 ± 13) min, t =0.406, P ＞ 0.05] and blood loss [(56 ±21)ml vs.(65 ± 26)ml, t =1.441, P ＞ 0.05], although the intracorporeal Delta-shaped anastomosis was more time-consuming than the extracorporeal Billroth-Ⅰ anastomosis [(17 ± 8) min vs.(12 ± 3) min, t =2.529, P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Demanding expertise and some skills, totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with intracorporeal delta-shaped anastomosis is safe and feasible.

Objective To evaluate the level of MMP-2 and COX-2 Protein in bladder transitional cell carcinoma tissue and explore their relationships. Methods A total of 42 patients with bladder transitional cell carcinoma, including Ta-T1 (n=18), T2-T4 (n=24), G1(n=12), G2 (n=19), G3 (n=11), metastasis (n=26) and without metastasis (n=16), were enrolled in the study. Eight normal bladder tissues were selected as control group. Western blotting was performed todetect the mRNA level of MMP-2 and COX-2. Results The relative COX-2 protein level of Ta-T1 (0.729±0.458), T2-T4 (1.248±0.425), G1 (0.61±0.486), G2 (1.055±0.406), G3 (1.422±0.341) were all higher than that of the control group significantly (0.31±0.149, t = 3.56, 4.13; F = 5.98, P ＜0.05). The relative MMP-2 protein level of Ta-T1 (0.844±0.345), T2-T4 (1.458±0.463), G1 (0.971 ±0.370), G2(1.445±0.378), G3 (1.755±0.387) were all higher than that of the control group (0.460±0.213, t = 3.91, 4.83;F = 6.35, P ＜0.05). The COX-2 and MMP-2 protein level in tumor tissues with and without metastasis were 1.246±0.426 vs 0.668±0.421, 1.430±0.461 vs 0.814±0.341, t = 5.89, 6.27, P ＜0.01, respectively. The level of COX-2 protein was positively correlated with MMP-2 positively (r =0.48, P ＜0.01). Conclusion MMP-2 and COX-2 protein are highly expressed in bladder transitional cell carcinoma tissue and their expression is positively correlated with the malignant degree. MMP-2 and COX-2 might play a synergetic role in the carcinogenesis of bladder transitional cell carcinoma.

Objective To analyzed the therapeutic effect of piperacillin sodium and sulbactum sodium(PIP/SBT)for injection in children bronchopneumonia.Methods 162 bronchopneumonia children who were admitted to pediatrics department during January 2014 to January 2016 were enrolled for this study and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group.The observation group received piperacillin sodium and sulbactum sodium therapy, while the control group received azithromycin.The symptom scores of coughing, wheezing, wheezing sound and the difficulty of expectoration in the 3rd day and 7th day were compared.The therapeutic effect of the two groups were evaluated.Results The observation group and the control group could both improve the symptom scores of coughing, wheezing, wheezing sound and the difficulty of expectoration in the 3rd day and 7th day, while the scores of observation group were significantly lower than the control ones.And the effective rate of observation group(97.5%)was significantly higher than the control one(90.1%).Conclusion Piperacillin sodium and sulbactum sodium(PIP/SBT)for injection had significantly clinical effect applying in children bronchopneumonia treatment, which was worthy of further popularization and application.

Objective To investigate the values of urine neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecular-1 (KIM-1) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) in the diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in children after cardiopulmonary by-pass (CPB). Methods Sixty-seven patients who had undergone CPB were recruited from March to June 2013 and assigned to acute kidney injury group (AKI group) or non-acute kidney injury group (non-AKI group) according to the pediatric RIFLE (pRIFLE) cri-teria. Serum and urine samples were collected from each patient at 30 min, 2 h, 4 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after CPB for serum and urine creatinine, urine NGAL, KIM-1 and IL-18. All the data were evaluated by receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) analysis and area under curve (AUC) analysis. Results Twenty-three cases (34.3%) had AKI in 67 children after CPB. Among them 15 cases were risk-stage AKI, 4 cases injury-stage AKI, 3 cases failure-stage AKI and 1 cases loss-stage AKI. The levels of urine NGAL/Ucr were higher in AKI group than those in non-AKI group at 4h, 48h and 72h after CPB (P<0.05). The cut-off value of NGAL/Ucr was 1.200 at 4 h after CPB, the sensitivity and specificity for prediction of AKI were 0.864 and 0.561, and the AUC was 0.671 (95%CI:0.537-0.804). The levels of urine KIM-1/Ucr were higher in AKI group than those in non-AKI group at 48h and 72 h after CPB (P<0.05). The cut-off value of KIM-1/Ucr was 1.162 at 24h after CPB, the sensitivity and specificity for prediction of AKI were 0.773 and 0.512, and the AUC was 0.698 (95%CI:0.563-0.834). The levels of IL-18/Ucr were higher in AKI group than those in non-AKI group at 4 h after CPB (P<0.05). The cut-off value of IL-18/Ucr was 0.04 at 4 h after CPB, the sensitivity and specificity for predici-ton of AKI were 0.773 and 0.561, and the AUC was 0.655 (95%CI:0.510-0.800). Conclusions It is indicated that urine NGAL, KIM-1 and IL-18 may have important clinical values for early prediction of AKI.
