Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of epirubicin (EPI) and gemcitabine (GEM) alternating sequential intravesical chemotherapy after transurethral resection in the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.Methods 240 patients with primary non-muscle invasive bladder urothelial carcinoma were randomly divided into 2 groups.There were 120 cases for each group,EPI group was given EPI 50 mg (once a week),bladder perfusion,while the EPI+GEM group was given EPI 50 mg (once every other week),GEM 1000 mg (once every other week),alternating sequential perfusion.The follow-up time ranged from 6 to 24 months when the time of tumor recurrence and adverse reactions of chemotherapy were observed and recorded.Results The 2-year tumor free survival rate for EPI group recurrence was 60.0 ％ (72/120),and 75.0 ％ (90/120) for EPI+GEM group.There were statistical significance between the differences of the 2 groups (x2 =5.489,P ＜ 0.05).3 cases in EPI group and 2 cases in EPI+GEM group progressed to muscle invasive bladder cancer,and there was no statistical significance between the differences of bladder cancer progression rates for the 2 groups (2.5 ％ and 1.7 ％) (x2 =0.000,P ＜ 0.05).The main adverse reaction during the treatment was gastrointestinal discomfort (15 cases and 6 cases respectively),no serious haematological toxicity and other adverse reactions were frequent urination,urgency,dysuria and hematuria.The differences between the occurrence rates of adverse reactions for the 2 groups were 25.0 ％ and 11.7 ％,which were statistically significant (x2 =6.252,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion For non-muscle invasive urothelial bladder carcinoma,the curative effect is better to use EPI and GEM sequential intravesical chemotherapy than to use EPI alone,which can not only reduce the 2 years recurrence rate after the operation,but also reduce the incidence rate of adverse reactions.Yet,this method cannot change the progress of bladder cancer.

Objective To construct a stable expression plasmids miR-218,to lay the experimental foundation for the expression and mechanism of miR-218 in human renal cell carcinoma.Methods The primers were designed by Has-miR-218 and the miR-218 fragment were amplified by PCR,and then which was connected with the carrier pcDNA3.1 (+) to build a stable expression plasmids.The recombinant plasmids were trasfected into renal cell carcinoma cell line 769-P,and the expression of miR-218 in these cells were detected.Results The plasmids were constructat successfully,which was determind by enzyme digestion and sequencing results.The constructed expression plasmids pcDNA3.1-miR-218 transfection of human renal cell carcinoma cell line 769-P,miR-218 cxpression level of cells was significantly increased after trasfected by recombinant plasmids carrying miR-218 gene (relative expression quantity was 1.64).Conclusion The miR-218 expression plasmids pcDNA3.1-miR-218 were successfully constructed,the plasmids can be applied to the study of miR-218 function and mechanism in renal cell carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the ankle-brachial index (ABI)and the extent of coronary artery stenosis and the left ventricular function in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD)with metabolism syndrome (MS). Methods A total of 140 patients with coronary artery disease was study subjects. In which, 66 cases complicated MS (MS group), 74 cases without MS (non MS group). ABI and the left ventricular function was examined in an patients. Results ABI was 0.90±0.32 in MS group, and 1.03±0.26 in non MS group, there was significant difference between two groups(P=0.015). Compared with non MS group, significant lower ratio of ABI in MS group [43.9%(29/66) vs 27.0%(20/74)] (P=0.038); whereas much more 3-vessel disease in ABI≤0.9 patients compared with those of ABI > 0.9 patients [86.3%(25/29) vs 37.8%(14/37) ], significant lower of the left ventricular function in ABI≤0.9 patients compared with those of ABI >0.9 patients (P<0.05). Conclusion There is more severe of coronary artery stenosis in ABI≤0.9 patients for CHD with MS, more attention should be payed to CHD patients combined with MS.

Objective To investigate the effects of the serum contained Shuluo sterile powder for injection (SLI) on injury induced by anoxia and hypoglycemia in cultured PC12 cells. Methods Cultured PC12 cells were treated with Na2S2O4 and Earle′ s liquid with glucose free to induce models of anoxia and hypoglycemia. The protective effects of the serum contained SLI on the two kinds of models were evaluated by the activity of lactate dehydrogenate (LDH) and staining with MTT assay. Results The serum contained SLI counteracted the injury induced by anoxia and hypoglycemia to various degrees and prevent the efflux of LDH. Conclusion The serum contained SLI can protect PC12 cells from injury induced by anoxia and hypoglycemia.

Objective To analyze the death causes of cadaveric kidney transplantation recipients. Methods The clinical data of 1400 cases of cadaveric kidney tansplantation between 1978 and 2003 were analyzed retrospectivvely. The death rate, causes and period were analyzed among the died recipients after kidney transplantation. Results 187 patients were died after renal transplantation in this stage with the ratio being 13.36% (187/1400). The death causes contained infection, cardiocerebra l vascular diseases and hepatic failure by turns, and the ratio was 37.97% , 31.56% and 14.97% , respectively. There were 87 ( 46.5% ) death cases w ith normal transplanted-kidney function. Conclusions The leading causes of patients' death were infection, cardiocerebral vascular d iseases, and hepatic failure. About half of these patients were died with normal transplanted-kidney function.

Objective To sum up the experience of renal transplantation in order to improve transplant effect and enhance the long-term survival and recovery rate.Methods The data of renal transplantation of 1 124 cases who received renal transplantation from Jul. 1978 to Oct. 2001 were summarized. All the possible factors that could influence the transplant effect such as pre-operative preparation, HLA match, donors' quality, surgical procedure, immunosuppressive therapy and so on were analyzed. Results The 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rate (%) of patient/kidney was 83.1/ 70.3, 74.6/ 68.6 and 62.6/ 56.1 respectively. The rate of AR was decreased significantly from 3.09?% only with LXM to 0.89?% with LXM test in combination with HLA serological test. The rate of HAR and AR in 130 cases with additional PRA test were lower than those only with LXM test.Conclusions The well pre-operative preparation, the ideal HLA match, the high quality of donor's kidney and transplant operation were keys for successful renal transplantation. Reduction of the complications, individual and combined medication in reason and long-term follow-up were very important in the long-term survival time.
