Objective Taken examination of patients with colon polyps by using narrow-band imaging (NBI) com-bined with magnified endoscope, to compare the difference in the opening of the gland morphology and pathological type. Methods 110 patients of colon polyps with 147 pathological histology biopsy samples collected. Using NBI combined with magnified endoscope techniques observe pit patterns and capillary patterns identify adenomatous polyps, and compared with the results of pathological histology, then analyze the adenomatous polyp diagnosis coin-cidence rate, sensitivity and specificity. Results The pit patterns of adenomatous polyps were mostly type Ⅲ, Ⅳ andⅤ. The diagnostic coincidence rate, sensitivity and specificity was 91.16%, 88.37%, 95.08%of adenomatous polyps. It was higher than ordinary colonoscopy (80.27%, 79.07%, 81.97%), and the diagnosis accuracy of intraepithelial neoplasia and early carcinoma of NBI combined with magnified endoscope was obviously higher than that by ordi-nary endoscopy examination, the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions NBI combined with magnified endoscope was superior in observing the opening of pit patterns and capillary patterns, which was helpful to diagno-sis of tumor lesions of colon polyps.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of combined anesthesia of lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve and superior clunial nerve versus spinal-epidural analgesia in total hip replacement. Methods Fifty cases of total hip replacement were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in group A received combined anesthesia of lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve and superior clunial nerve,while patients in group B received spinal-epidural analgesia. Results There were no significant differences in preoperative HR, SBP,DBP and SpO2 between the groups(P > 0. 05). Compared with pre-anesthesia data,HR,SBP,DBP in group A were significantly lower during the anesthesia(P < 0. 05). In group B,there were no significant changes in HR,SBP,DBP and SpO2 during the anesthesia( P > 0. 05). Patients′ heart rate in group A showed significant changes compared with that in group B. The differences in HR,SBP and DBP between group A and B at the same time points were significant(P < 0. 05). Superior rate of anesthesia in group B is higher than that in group A(P < 0. 05). Conclusion Combined anesthesia of lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve and superior clunial nerve has limited influence on the circulatory and respiratory systems,which can be used for total hip replacement.

Objective:To investigate whether the likelihood of balance impairment in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) increases with the presence of disruptive behavior disorder(DBD),and whether the likelihood of co-occurring diagnosis of DBD increases in ADHD children with severer balance deficit.Methods:Three groups of 20 children each,representing pure ADHD,ADHD+DBD,and typically developing control children,were included and group matched by age and gender.Balance functions were assessed with the Balance Master in different conditions.We compared the percentages of children in each group who swayed faster than 85% of the typical control children in all conditions.Results:In the conditions of firm surface with eyes open(FI/EO) and eyes closed(FI/EC),and foam surface with eyes open(FO/EO) and eyes closed(FO/EC),the sway velocities of ADHD only group(0.65?0.26 ?/s,0.65?0.30 ?/s,0.95?0.29 ?/s,and 1.70?0.49?/s,respectively) were significantly higher than those of the typical control group(0.47?0.18 ?/s,0.43?0.19 ?/s,0.76?0.21 ?/s,and 1.27?0.38 ?/s,respectively)(P

Breast cancer belongs to high morbidity malignant tumor for women. Some known aspects to breast cancer were etiological factor, pathogenesis and prescription based upon literature review of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in ancient times, and the valuable references to modern clinical medicine (CM) was offered. Some animal studies and modern clinical trials indicated that curative effect of integration of Chinese and Western Medicine in experimental group was better than that of Western Medicine treatment alone in control group. It aims to offer open-minded idea under syndrome differentiation for professional staff in clinic by arranging, inducing-and summarizing related records on breast cancer.

ObjectiveTo detect the expression levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs),sera and skin tissue fluid from patients with vitiligo vulgaris,and to investigate their clinical significance.MethodsThirty-nine patients with vitiligo vulgaris and 31 age- and sex-matched normal human controls were recruited in this study.Real-time reverse transcription-PCR was employed to assess the expressions of MIF mRNA in PBMCs,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect the concentrations of MIF in sera and skin tissue fluid from these subjects.ResultsPatients with vitiligo vulgaris showed a significantly higher level of MIF mRNA in PBMCs (6.70 (2.64 - 8.65) vs.1.67 (1.24 - 2.45),Z=5.895,P＜ 0.05),MIF protein in sera (32.76 (10.67 - 40.98) μg/L vs.7.89 (6.13 - 9.54) μg/L,Z=5.936,P ＜ 0.05 ) and skin tissue fluid ( 167.80 ( 107.40 - 219.60) μg/L vs.42.44 (32.29 - 49.74) μg/L,Z =4.715,P ＜ 0.05) compared with the normal human controls.The expression levels of MIF mRNA in PBMCs,and MIF protein in sera and skin tissue fluid were also higher in patients with progressive vitiligo than in those with stable vitiligo (7.89 (3.89 - 9.12) vs.5.62 (2.23 - 7.29),Z=2.213,P＜ 0.05; 37.80 (29.50 - 45.70) μg/L vs.22.70 (9.36 - 37.78) μg/L,Z=2.141,P＜ 0.05; 211.50 (131.70 - 248.75) μg/L vs.144.65 (89.13 - 167.30) μg/L,Z =2.100,P ＜ 0.05).In addition,the vitiligo area severity index (VASI) score was positively correlated with the expression levels of MIF mRNA in PBMCs (r =0.486,P ＜ 0.05)and MIF protein in sera (r =0.453,P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionMIF might play a certain role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo vulgaris.

Objective To evaluate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride pretreatment on the expression of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and cell apoptosis in lung tissues in rats with endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI).Methods Forty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 220-270 g,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =8 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),endotoxin-induced ALI group (ALI group),and penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.03,0.10,0.30 mg/kg groups (Pi-3 groups).ALI was induced with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 5 mg/kg which was injected via the caudal vein.In P1-3 groups,penehyclidine hydmchloride 0.03,0.10 and 0.30 mg/kg were injected intraperitoneally,respectively,at 1 h before LPS injection,while the equal volume of normal saline was administered in C and ALI groups.The animals were sacrificed at 4 h after ALI models were successfully established and pulmonary specimens were obtained for determination of the cell apoptosis (by TUNEL),expression of NOS mRNA (using PT-PCR),and Bcl-2 and Bax protein (by Western blot),NOS activity (using chemical colorimetry) and NO content (by using nitrate reductase method) and for examination of pathological changes (by light and electron microscopes).Apoptotic index (AI) and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was calculated.Results Compared with group C,NOS mRNA and Bax protein expression was significantly up-regulated,NOS activity,NO content and AI were increased,Bcl-2 protein expression was down-regulated,the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was decreased (P ＜ 0.01),and the degree of pathological changes of the lung was aggravated in ALI and P1-3 groups.Compared with ALI and P1 groups,NOS mRNA and Bax protein expression was significantly down-regulated,NOS activity,content of NO and AI were decreased,Bcl-2 protein expression was up-regulated,the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was increased (P ＜ 0.01),and the degree of pathological changes of the lung was alleviated in P2-3 groups.There was no significant difference in the indexes mentioned above and results of pathological changes of the lung between group ALI and group P1,and between group P2 and group P3 (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Penehyclidine hydrochloride pretreatment ameliorates endotoxin-induced ALI by inhibiting NOS expression and cell apoptosis in rat lung tissues.

Background and purpose: Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adult. Due to a high tendency for early metastasis the treatment of UM is very difficult. This study aimed to explore an effective approach for the treatment of patients with UM, we designed a strategy that combined HtrA2 gene therapy and radiation therapy. Methods:pIRES-Egr1-Omi/HtrA2 (pEgr1-HtrA2) recombinant plasmids were constructed and transfected into human UM cells (OCM-1) in vitro. The transfected cells were exposed to irradiation. HtrA2 mRNA and protein levels were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot respectively. Assays that evaluated the apoptosis inducibility caused by HtrA2 gene therapy combined with radiation was performed by lfow cytometry. Followingly, the effects of HtrA2 overexpression on the in vitro radiosensitivity of uveal melanoma cells were investigated by clonogenic formation assay. The in vivo effects of HtrA2 gene therapy combined with radiation therapy were evaluated in different groups. Results:The recombinant plasmids could be successfully transferred into OCM-1 cells and transfection of pEgr1-HtrA2 plasmids combined with radiotherapy caused dramatically elevation of HtrA2 compared with non-irradiation cells in mRNA and protein levels, which was associated with increased apoptosis.Furthermore, we observed that the transfection of pEgr1-HtrA2 could significantly enhance radiosensitivity of OCM-1 cell in vitro. In mice bearing xenograft tumors, pEgr1-HtrA2 combined with radiation therapy signiifcantly inhibited tumor growth compared with the other treatment groups (P<0.05). Conclusion:Our ifndings indicate that radiation-inducible gene therapy may have potential to be a more effective and speciifc therapy for uveal melanoma because the therapeutic gene can be spatially or temporally controlled by exogenous radiation.
