0.05).The optimal combination was PCR-CTPP for MDR1 C3435T and PCR-SSP for G2677T/A.Conclusions PCR-CTPP and PCR-SSP are simple,accurate,rapid and economical methods for detection of SNP of MDR1 C3435T and G2677T/A,and can be applied in clinical research.

Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopy in combination with fast track colorectal surgery (FTCS) in the treatment of colorectal cancer in the elderly.Methods A total of 123 patients were randomly divided into 3 groups:the laparoscopy plus FTCS group (n=41),the laparoscopy group (n=41) and the laparotomy group (n=41).Parameters for measuring surgical quality,recovery and postoperative complications were analysed.Results No significant differences were found in age,gender,tumor location,anesthesia ASA classification,American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Tumor Node Metastasis (TNM) staging,Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score or complications between the three groups (P>0.05 for all).There were no differences in blood loss,operative time,time required to resume defecation or number of lymph nodes dissected between the laparoscopy plus FTCS group and the laparoscopy or laparotomy group (P>0.05 for all),but time taken to initiate postoperative ambulation,time taken to resume flatulence,time taken to start intake of liquid food and length of hospital stay were shorter in the laparoscopy plus FTCS group than in the other groups (P < 0.05 for all).The incidence of postoperative complications was 12.2% or 5/41 in the laparoscopy plus FTCS group,which was lower than in the laparoscopy group (34.1% or 14/41) and in the laparotomy group (68.3% or 28/41) (x2 =5.549 and 28.826,P=0.018 and 0.01,respectively),a statistically significant difference was also found between the latter two groups (x2 =9.567,P =0.002).Conclusions Laparoscopy in combination with FTCS is safe and effective in the treatment of colorectal cancer in the elderly.

Objective To investigate the association of genetic polymorphisms in glutathione S-transferases T1 (GSTrl), M1 (GSTM1) and P1 (GSTP1) with aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN) of Chinese people in Wenzhou of China. Methods Fifty-nine patientswith AAN (AAN group) including 29 male and 30 female as well as 157 healthy ethnically matched controls (control group) including 93 male and 64 female were enrolled in this study. The genotypes of GSTT1, GSTMI and GSTP1 were determined by multiple PCR and confronting two-pair primers PCR (CTPP-PCR). Results The genotype frequencies of GSTP1 were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Compared with the healthy controls, the frequency of GSTT1 null genotype was significantly higher in the patients with AAN (66.1% vs 48.4%,P<0.05). Risk of A.AN for individuals with GSTT1 null genotype was 1.747 fold of those without GSTIl null genotype (95% CI=0.818-3.731). The frequency of GSTM1 null genotype, GSTP1 variant genotypes and GSTP1 G allele in the patients and in the controls were 40.7%, 28.8%, 16.1% and 47.8%, 31.8%, 17.5%, respectively, which were not significantly different. No significant differences were found in prevalence of GSTM1 and GSTP1 gene distribution between patients and controls. Conclusion GSTrl gene polymorphism appears to be associated with susceptibility to AAN in Southern China.
