Objective To study whether carbon dioxide used to establish pneumoperitoneum has an influence on port-site and intraperitoneal implantation and metastasis of tumor cells. Methods R 15 hepatic cancer cells were injected into 30 Wistar rats’ peritoneal cavities 1 hour before operation, then the 30 Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: gasless group, helium group and carbon dioxide group. The suspension was exposed to the gas environment for 2 hours, all animals were killed after 28 days and the port-site and intraperitoneal implantation and metastasis of tumor cells were examined.Results On port-site, intestinal serous coat, mesentery, greater omentum and diaphragm, the weights of tumor cells, in carbon dioxide group were (326.7?230.3) mg, (626.2?215.9) mg, (476.2?204.8) mg,(2 536.5?906.7) mg and (384.5?149.9) mg respectively; in helium group were (235.6?107.3) mg, (414.2?148.4) mg, (261.8?92.6) mg, (1 633.4?247.3) mg and(220.0?57.9) mg; in gasless group were (145.0?42.4) mg, (221.5?108.2) mg, (212.5?109.6) mg, (797.5?335.9) mg and 113.0 mg.The weights of carbon dioxide group showed a significant increase, compared with helium group and gasless group (P 0.05). Conclusion The insufflation of carbon dioxide promotes intraperitoneal tumor implantation and growth compared with helium and gaslessness in a rat model.

Objective To compare genomic expression differences between androgenic complete hydatidiform mole (AnCHM) and normal first trimester villi with similar gestation weeks,and search for potential adjuvant diagnostic molecular markers.Methods Short tandem repeat (STR) detection was used to identify AnCHM,human oligonucleotide array U133 Plus 2.0 was used to measure genomic expression differences between AnCHM and normal villi,and quantitative fluorescent RT-PCR was used to verify array of several genes.Results Nine of 11 histologically diagnosed complete hydatidiform moles were found to be AnCHM by means of STR,and the other 2 were biparental complete hydatidifonn mole (BiCHM). Compared with villi,oligonueleotide array showed 279 genes (0.72%,279/38 500) were over expressed and 1710 genes (4.44%,1710/38 500) under expressed in AnCHM.Bioinformatics analysis found that differentially expressed genes were involved in multiple biological processes and pathways.Changes of imprinting genes,growth hormone genes and chorionie somatomammotropin hormone genes were especially remarkable.Conclusions Pathogenesis of AnCHM is a complex process involving multiple genes and pathways.Altered expression of imprint genes may play important roles in the process.

Objective To analyze the CT findings of endobronchial spread in lung adenocarcinoma. Methods The CT findings of 15 lung adenocarcinomas or bronchioloalveolar carcinomas with endobronchial spread were reviewed,the distribution and the progression of the spread were evaluated.Results All of the primary tumors were consolidation form.The spread lesions distributed in one side of the lung or both sides along the bronchus.The pleural surface was spared.The CT findings of the spread included centrilobular nodules(n=5),tree-in-bud(n=7),acinar nodules(n=2),ground-glass opacities(n=10)and air- space consolidations(n=13)in the first CT examination.5 cases of the spread lesions only presented centrilobular nodules(single form)and 10 cases presented several appearances(complex form).All of the cases were diagnosed as tuberculosis or pneumonia,and antituberculotic or antibiotic therapy was taken with no effect.The follow-up CT scans showed progression in all cases,and the spread lesions with single form became multiple consolidations.The spread lesions with complex form deteriorated faster than the single one. Conclusion Although the CT findings of the endobronchial spread of the lung adenocarcinoma is specific, the clinical history and laboratory examination also are important for the differential diagnosis with tuberculosis and other infectious diseases.

Objective To retrospectively study pathological characteristics of 1561 patients with colorectal cancer in Nanchang area.Methods Analysis was made regarding the results of colonoscopy and pathological examination in patients from 1990 to 2004.Results Totally 21 853 patients received colonoscopy during the period,and 1561 patients were diagnosed as colorectal cancer.The overall diag- nostic yield was 7.1%.The average age diagnosed was 52 years old.Ratio of male to female was 1.4: 1.The lesion located in rectum accounted for 43.4%.The percentage of cancer in left colon was higher than that in right side (30.5% vs 26.1%,P＜0.05).The proportion (57.5%) of patients with rectal can-cer under 30 years old was the highest in all patients with rectal cancer.Cancer located in sigmoid colon and left side of the colon increased with age.Well and moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma was observed in 83.6% of the patients.Comparing the clinical characteristics of every five years,increasing diagnostic yield was noted from 1990 to 1999,hut the decreased trend was found in last five years.The propor- tions of rectal cancer was also increased in the last fifteen years,and overall proportions of cancer located in left side of colon was decreased.Conclusions The overall diagnostic yield of colorectal cancer in Nanchang area was lower than other province,especially rectal cancer.The proportion of cancer of left side of colon was increased with age.The well and moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma was found increasing in the last fifteen years, while the poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma was decreased.

OBJECTIVETo observe the influence of heat shock preconditioning on the expressions of heat shock protein (HSP) 60 and HSP 70 and on the activities of cytochrome oxidase (CCO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in mitochondria in gastric mucosa of severely scalded rats, and to investigate its protective mechanism on acute gastric mucosal lesion in rats with severe scald.

METHODSOne hundred and forty-four Wistar rats were randomized into three groups, i. e. scald group ( n = 40, acute gastric mucosal lesion was made after scald, other 8 normal rats without scald were employed as blank control); HS group ( n =40, with heat shock preconditioning 20 h before scald), and other 8 rats preconditioned with heat shock but without scald were employed as experimental control I; actinomycin D group ( n = 40, with intraperitoneal injection of 0. 1 mg/kg actinomycin D 30 min before heat shock preconditioning and other treatment as HS group), and other 8 rats with merely actinomycin D injection were employed as experimental control II. Eight rats in each group were sacrificed and laparotomized at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 post-scald hours (PSH) , respectively to determine the index of gastric mucosal lesions (UI ) , the mRNA expressions of HSP70 and protein expression of HSP60 and HSP70, and the changes in the activities of SOD and CCO.

RESULTSUI of the scalded rats increased as the time elapses, reaching the peak (12. 8 +/- 1.9) at 24 PSH. In addition, UI in HS group was significantly lower than that in scald group at each time-point except that at 3 PSH ( P < 0. 05 or 0. 01). The extent of gastric mucosal lesion in rats in actinomycin D group was obviously aggravated compared with that in scald and HS groups ( P <0. 05). The HSP70 mRNA expression in both scald and HS groups was increased at each time-points except for 48PBH, while that in actinomycin D group was increased at 24 PBH and 48PBH. The expressions of HSP70 and HSP60 were greatly increased in HS group compared with those in scald group ( P < 0. 05 or 0. 01) , while those in actinomycin D group were significantly inhibited ( P < 0. 05). The activities of CCO and SOD were gradually decreased in gastric mucosa in scald group, but it was greatly improved by HS preconditioning at 6, 12, 24 PSH ( P < 0. 05 or 0. 01).

CONCLUSIONHeat shock preconditioning is beneficial for the protection of acute gastric mucosal lesion of rats after severe scald, due to increase of HPS60 and HSP70 expression, and increase of CCO and SOD activities in mitochondria.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the infection of HEV in Quzhou area of Zhejiang Province.

METHODSAll sera from blood donors in the central blood bank of Quzhou from April 2006 to April 2007 were used. Anti-HEV IgG and anti-HEV IgM were measured by EIA. RT-PCR was also performed to the samples with positive anti-HEV IgM. Genotype and sequence homology were analyzed after sequencing.

RESULTSThe positive ratio of anti-HEV IgG was 40.60%, in which the male infection ratio was higher than the female significantly (43.09% VS 36.09%; chi2=22.6; P < 0.01). The infection ratio was increased with age. The positive ratio of anti-HEV IgM was 0.43%. The positive ratio of anti-HEV IgG and the titers of antibody were higher in the inferior clinical infectors with positive anti-HEV IgM than the negative ones (P < 0.05). Two samples were positive in HEV PCR among 21 samples with positive anti-HEV IgM. The toxemia ratio was 0.4% of all the donors. And the genotype of the two samples with toxemia were both HEV-IV.

CONCLUSIONThe HEV infection was correlation with age and sex significantly and the infection occurred in the adults mainly in Quzhou area. HEV toxemia was not infrequency in the blood donors.

?AlM: To investigate the outcome and safety of Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation treatment in uncontrolled primary congenital glaucoma ( PCG) .
? METHODS: Twenty - two eyes in 22 children with uncontrolled PCG were reviewed retrospectively and underwent Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation treatment from January 2011 to December 2014. Main checking index included intraocular pressure ( lOP ) before and after operation, corneal diameter and complications.
?RESULTS: Preoperative mean age was 3. 74±2. 24y, and 2. 59 ± 1. 78y apart from the last operation. Postoperative average lOP was 35. 22 ± 6. 36mmHg. Average corneal diameter was 12. 79 ± 0. 75mm. Mitomycin C ( 0. 3 - 0. 5mg/mL ) was used in all operations for 3-5min. Glaucoma valves were implanted in the temporal or nose above the equator sclera. Postoperative lOP was 11. 4±4. 45mmHg at 1wk, and 16. 73± 7. 23mmHg after 12mo. As lOP< 21mmHg for success criteria, lOP of 16 eyes ( 73%) were controlled after 12mo. Preoperative 6 cases had shallow anterior chamber, recovered spontaneously. No serious complication was recorded, such as rejection of glaucoma valve, endoophthalmitis and corneal decompensation.
?CONCLUSlON:Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation in uncontrolled PCG is a safe and viable treatment.

OBJECTIVETo observe analgesic effect of electroacupuncture ( EA) on rats with chronic inflammatory pain and its regulatory mechanism on ispilateral dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and spinal dorsal horn (SDH) Mas-related G protein-coupled C receptor (MrgprC).

METHODSTotally 40 healthy male SD rats were divided into 4 groups according to random number table, i.e., the normal (N) group, the model (M) group, the acupuncture (Acu) group, the EA group, 10 rats in each group. The model of chronic inflammatory pain was established by subcutaneous injecting 0. 1 mL complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) into right hind paw. Paw withdrawal thresholds (PWTs) were measured before modeling, at day 1, 3, 5, 7, and after CFA injection, respectively. Expression levels of MrgprC in ispilateral DRG and SDH were detected by Western blot. The content of bovine adrenal medulla 22 (BAM22) in SDH was detected by immunohistochemical assay.

RESULTSCompared with N group at each time point, PWTs significantly decreased in M group (P <0. 01). Compared with M group, PWTs significantly increased at day 5 of EA and after EA in EA group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Compared with Acu group at each time point, post-EA PWTs significantly increased in the EA group (P < 0.05). Compared with N group, expression of MrgprC in ispilateral DRG and ratio of BAM22 positive cells in ispilateral SDH increased in M group (P < 0.01). Compared with M group, expression of MrgprC in ispilateral DRG and ratio of BAM22 positive cells in ispilateral SDH increased in the EA group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONEA had favorable analgesic effect on chronic inflammatory pain induced by CFA, and its mechanism might be possibly associated with up-regulating MrgprC expression in ispilateral DRG and BAM22 content in ispilateral SDH.
