Objective To observe the efficacy of prostatic massage combined with α1 receptor blocker in the treatment of type Ⅲ prostatitis. Methods 86 cases were randomly divided into two groups. The treatment group( n =45 ) were given twice-weekly prostatic massage in combination with α1 receptor blocker( terazosin 2mg per night) for 6 weeks. Thc control group(n =41 )were only given terazosin 2mg per night for 6 weeks. AII the patients were asked to complete the National Institutes of Healthe Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index(NIH-CPSI) before and after the treatment. Results 86 cases were evaluated after the treatment. The NIH-CPSI scores of the two groups decreased from ( 29.5 ± 4.2 ) to ( 9.6 ± 3.8), from ( 28.9 ± 3.4) to ( 14.6 ± 3.6) respectively, with statistically significant differences from pretreatment( t = 12.131、6.999, all P ＜ 0.05 )as well as between the combined therapy group and the control group(t = 4.649, P ＜ 0.05). There were no serious side effects during the therapy. Conclusion Prostatic massage combined with α1 receptor blocker can relieve the symptoms in type Ⅲ prostatitis patients and improve their life quality. The combined therapy can produce better efficacy than terazosin used alone.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy for treatment of complicated ureteral calculi. Methods Clinical data of 56 cases with complicated ureteral calculi who were treated with ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy was reviewed. Among them 15 cases were proximal ureteral calculi,41 cases were middle and distal ureteral calculi. Treatment by extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) failed in 25 cases,8 cases complicated with fever. Results In 41 cases with middle and distal ureteral calculi, successful lithotripsy was achieved after the first treatment session,the success rate was 100.0% (41/41). In 15 cases with proximal ureteral calculi ,successful lithotripsy was achieved in 10 cases after the first treatment session,the success rate was 66.7%(l0/15). Calculi migrated to kidney in 3 cases who treated by ESWL for 1-2 times. The failure was due to ureteral kink in 1 case and due to ureteral perforation that required surgical repair in another case. Forty-nine cases were calculi-free after 4 weeks,the calculi-free rate was 87.5%(49/56). Emergency operation was performed in 8 cases complicated with fever. Successful lithotripsy was achieved after the first treatment session in 7 cases. In one patient,calculi migration occurred. Within all 8 cases obstruction was released and fever was allayed after operation.The complication rate was 1.8% (1/56). Conclusion Ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy for treatment of complicated ureteral calculi is a safe and effective method.

Objective:This study aimed to analyze and summarize the clinicopathologic characteristics and treatment protocols of large cell lung carcinoma (LCLC). Methods:Clinicopathologic data of 83 cases with LCLC confirmed by pathology in 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Results:Exactly 83 cases of LCLC accounted for 5.4%of lung cancer in 2012. Sixty-three cases were male and twenty were female. The average age was 60.4 years old. The average maximum diameter of the tumor was 4.6 cm. The common manifestations in imageology were peripheral type. Only four cases were correctly diagnosed by sputum exfoliocytology, biopsy of bronchofibroscope, and paracentesis before surgery. Sixty-three cases (76%) underwent surgical resection, and pulmonary lobectomy was mainly selected. Postoperative pathology diagnosis indicated that 39 cases were classic large cell carcinoma, 31 were large cell neu-roendocrine carcinoma, 2 were combined large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, 8 were basaloid carcinoma, 2 were clear cell carcinoma, and 1 was lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma. Each subtype of LCLC had respective characteristics of pathomorphology and immuno-histochemistry. Lymph node metastasis occurred in 62 cases (75%). Conclusion:The incidence rate of LCLC, which is a highly aggres-sive malignancy, is low. The clinical manifestation and imageology characteristics of LCLC do not have specificity, and its final diagno-sis depends on pathology diagnosis. Operation is the main treatment method. Improving the diagnosis rate of LCLC and further subdi-viding the pathological subtypes are important for a normalized comprehensive treatment of LCLC.

This study aims at the mechanism of foveola formation in bovine trabecular bone under fatigue process and its relation with biomechanical pathogenesis of senile osteoporosis. The scanning electron microscope equipped with fatigue stage was used to observe fatigue micro injury accumulation of cancellous bone. The massive foveola formation in the laminal bone of vertical trabeculae was found in the tensile fatigue test. There existed the collagen avulsion in the foveola. The massive foveola formation was also observed in the lamina bone of the horizontal trabeculae in the compressive fatigue test. The bone collagen fibers were protracted, debound with hydroxyapatite crystal, and then avulsed under tensile and bending stresses. Finally the retraction of the avulsed collagen fibers brought on the massive formation of foveolae in lamina bone. The mechanical capacity of bone also declined greatly. We infer that the direct mineralization of avulsed collagen and foveola in lamina bone would be one of the main processes of self repair in vivo, which brings on the increase in fragility and stiffness of trabeculae of senile osteoporotic bone along with the agelong accumulation of collagen fatigue injury and foveola formation in the lamina bone.

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women,which not only brings serious harm to female health but also substantially increased the burden of social medical care.Therefore it is necessary to adopt effective treatment strategies to control the social harm caused by cancer.Radiotherapy plays a critical role in the adjunctive therapy of breast cancer,which significantly reduces the risk of local recurrence and improves the long-term survival of breast cancer patients.In recent years,intraoperative radiotherapy has become a research hotspot in breast conserving surgery treatment,and is gradually applied in clinic with the advantage of mild side effect and shortening the patients′later treatment time.

OBJECTIVE: To study the efficacy and safety of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule (FZHY Capsule) against liver fibrosis with chronic hepatitis B. METHODS: Multicentric, randomized, double blinded and paralleled control led trial was conducted on patients (aged between 18 and 65) with liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B Indexes observed: (1) hepatic histological changes and HBV markers were observed at 0 and 24th week during the treatment; serological indexes (HA, LN, P-III-P, IV-C) were determined and B ultrasound examination of spleen and liver was taken at 0, 12th, 24th week; liver function (during the period of follow-up, liver function and serological indexes for liver fibrosis were evaluated) were observed at 0, 6th, 12th, 18th, 24th week; (2) indexes for safety: blood and urine routine tests, renal function and ECG were examined. RESULTS: (1) Enrollment and demographic data: There was no significant difference between the trial (110 cases) and control group (106 cases) in demographic feature, vital signs, course of illness, history for drug anaphylaxis, history of previous therapy, liver function, serological indexes for liver fibrosis, liver histological examination (99 cases for test group, 96 cases for control group), HBV markers, and renal function, etc. (2) Histological pathological examination: 93 cases of liver histological examination were taken, of these 50 cases for the trial group and 43 cases for control group which turned out to be at S mean value of 2.33 and 2.11 respectively pretreatment according to criteria for liver fibrosis staging. Post-treatment, the trial showed a significant decrease with S value of 1.80 compared to that of pretreatment; however, there was no significant improvement in control group before and after the treatment with S mean value of 2.14. There was significant difference in reversing rate (decrease at least 1 stage according to criteria for liver fibrosis staging) between the trial (52%) and control (23.3%) after liver biopsy. The trial had a rather good effect on improving inflammatory activity and was superior to control group with a marked decrease of mean value of inflammatory activity and score of inflammation (P<0.05). (3)Serological indexes for liver fibrosis: There was a significant decrease in HA, LN, P-III-P, IV-C content in test group after 12 and 24 weeks' treatment compared to that of pretreatment; the differences of HA, LN, P-III-P, IV-C between 12, 24 weeks' treatment and pretreatment were significantly greater than control group (P<0.01 or 0.05); the effectual was defined as 2 of 4 indexes lowered more than 30% of the baseline, according to this criteria, the trial was 72.7%, while control group 27.4% (P<0.01). (4)Liver function: Obvious improvement of serum Alb, ALT, AST, GGT was seen in 2 groups; compared with control group, marked improvement of GGT and Alb in the trial (P<0.05); the effective rate of serum ALT in the trial group was 72.7%, while control 59.4%. (5)No changes of significant difference between pre- and post-treatment in routine tests for blood and urine, renal function and ECG, etc. There was also no difference in the stable rate of ALT and serological indexes for liver fibrosis between the trial and control group 12 weeks after withdrawal (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Fuzheng Huayu Capsule has good effect on alleviating liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B without any adverse effect and is superior to Heluo Shugan Capsule. Fuzheng Huayu Capsule is a safe and effective medicine for the treatment of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B.
