Objective To observed the effect of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in combination of submicrobubble on ablation of breast tumor VX2 in rabbits.Methods Submicrobubble was prepared,and the appearance,distribution,diameter,and zeta potential were measured.The rabbits were injected with the tumor tissue suspension in bilateral breast tissues.HIFU(150 W,120 W,5 s,3 s) combined with submicrobubble to damage rabbit breast VX2 tumors.The coagulation necrosis was assessed by HE staining.The grayscale changes of the target area before and after HIFU irradiation were recorded automatically by computer.Results The diameter of the submicrobubble was 498.9 nm on average.HE staining showed the area of coagulation necrosis was significantly larger in the HIFU + submicrobubble group than the HIFU + PBS group.The injury range of 150 W irradiation was larger than that of 120 W irradiation,given the same irradiation time.The injury range of 5 s irradiation was larger than that of 3 s irradiation,given the same irradiation strength.The gray scale change in the target area was significantly higher in the HIFU + submicrobubble group than the HIFU + PBS group.Conclusions The submicrobubble exhibited sound imaging performance,and it can be use in the ultrasound therapeutics in the future.

Objective To evaluate the effects of pretreatment with different doses of phosphocreatine on hepatic ischemia-repeffusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods.Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-250 g,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =6 each):sham operation group (group S),hepatic I/R group (group I/R),and pretreatment with different doses of phosphocreatine groups (groups P1-3).Hepatic I/R was induced by 90 min occlusion of the hepatic artery and portal vein entering the middle and left lobes of the liver followed by 4 h reperfusion in anesthetized rats.Phosphocreatine 50,150 and 450 mg/kg were injected via the tail vein at 60 min before ischemia in groups P1-3,respectively.In groups S and I/R,the equal volume of normal saline was given instead.Blood samples were taken from the abdominal aorta at 4 h of reperfusion for determination of plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST),TNF-α and IL-1β concentrations.The rats were then sacrificed and the livers were removed for determination of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity (by ELISA),intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression (by immunohistochemistry),and cell apoptosis (by TUNEL) and for microscopic examination (by electron microscopy).Results The MPO activity in liver tissues,plasma ALT and AST activities,TNF-α and IL-1β concentrations and the number of apoptotic cells were significantly higher in groups I/R and P1-3 than in group S,while lower in groups P1-3 than in group I/R (P < 0.05).The parameters mentioned above were decreasedin turn in groups P1-3 (P < 0.05).Conclusion Phosphocreatine pretreatment can attenuate the hepatic I/R injury in rats in a dose-dependent manner and inhibition of the inflammatory responses is involved in the mechanism.

BACKGROUND:Treatment methods for high anal fistula include fistula removal, incision and thread drawing, selective mucosal flap displacement, fibrin glue closure, fistula liagtion between sphincter, most of which show many advantages, including long-term healing, a low success rate, high recurrence rate, and high postoperative complication rate.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effect of acelular extracelular matrix in the treatment of high anal fistula, and to explore a minimaly invasive treatment for high anal fistula.
METHODS: Totaly 100 cases of high anal fistula were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 50 cases in each group. Treatment group were treated with alogenic acelular extracelular matrix, and control group were treated with traditional low incision with high thread-drawing. Then, we observed and compared the operation time, bleeding volume, postoperative pain score (visual analog scale score), postoperative pain
duration, anal incontinence severity score (Wexner score), wound healing time, one-stage success rate, cure rate, recurrence rate.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the control group, the treatment group showed lower scores in the operation time, bleeding volume, wound healing time, visual analog scale score, postoperative pain duration, and anal incontinence severity score (P < 0.05), but higher scores in one-stage success rate and cure rate (P < 0.05). There was no difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups. These findings indicate that the alogenic acelular extracelular matrix for treatment of high anal fistula exhibits smal trauma, quick recovery,
short course of treatment, high cure rate and has no damage to the anal function and appearance.
