Objective To observe the serum concentration of S100βprotein (S100β)and neuron specific enolase (NSE)in patients undergoing supratentorial tumor resection with ulinastatin treat-ment.Methods Twenty-four patients with supratentorial tumor resection,aged 18-65 years,ASA Ⅰor Ⅱ,were randomly divided into the control group (group A,n =12)and ulinastatin group (group U,n =12).Patients in group U received ulinastatin (2 kU/kg)at the beginning of the surgery,with the continuous dose of 1 kU·kg-1 ·h-1 till the end of the operation.Group A received equivalent volume of saline solution as the vehicle control.Blood samples were taken from the artery and jugular venous bulb before induction of anesthesia (T1 ),skin incision (T2 ),1 h after dura openning (T3 ),at the closure of dura (T4 ),at the end of operation (T5 )and 24 h after operation (T6 )to analyze the concentration of S100β and NSE.The concentration of S100β and NSE were determined by ELISA. Results The concentration of serum S100β and NSE increased more significantly higher at T3-T6 in group A than group U (P <0.01).The concentration of serum S100βand NSE in group U were lower than those in group A at T3-T5 (P < 0.01 ).Conclusion Ulinastatin reduces the concentration of serum S100βand NSE during surgery,indicating it alleviates brain injury during supratentorial tumor resection.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic significance of thin layer reconstruction with spiral CT on the pulmonary hamartoma. Methods Accepted both routine CT examination and thin layer construction,2 1 pulmonary hamartoma cases confirmed by pathology were analyzed retrospectively.The margin and inner features of the lesions were observed and recorded.Significant analysis was performed by using SPSS17.0 Pearson chi-square test and Fisher exact test,with P<0.05 as the significant difference criterion.Results Comparison of the display rates by routine CT and thin layer reconstruction:①the same display rate of lobulation were 57.1%(12/21);②the same display rate of calcification were 42.9% (9/21);③the display rates of fat density were 14.3%(3/21)by routine CT and 42.9% (9/21)by thin layer reconstruction.The difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.200,P<0.05);④the display rates of blood vessel throughing were 14.3%(3/21)by routine CT and 47.6% (10/21)by thin layer reconstruction.The difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.459,P<0.05).Conclusion Displaying the inner features of pulmonary hamartoma better than routine CT,the thin layer reconstruction can improve the diagnostic accuracy significantly.

Preoperative serum specimens were collected from 249 endometrial cancers and 99 uterine leiomyomas and their concentrations of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4),CA 125 and CA 19-9 were detected.The indices of diagnostic evaluation were calculated.Preoperative serum concentrations of HE4,CA125 and CA19-9 in endometrial carcinoma group were significantly higher than those of control group.The areas under curve of HE4,CA125 and CA19-9 were 0.736,0.615 and 0.661 respectively and that of combiued markers was 0.774.At a 90% specificity,the sensitivities for HE4,CA125,CA19-9 were 55.0%,26.9% and 30.1% while that of combined markers was 56.2%.HE4 is an ideal tumor marker for endometrial cancer and combined detection improves diagnostic rate.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of Delphian lymph node (DLN) dissection in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) .Methods:The correlation of DLN detection and metastasis in 208 PTC patients with various clinical and pathological features was analyzed retrospectively. The value of DLN metastasis in predicting PTC high-risk features was evaluated, and the tendency of surgical selection for PTC with DLN metastasis was also discussed.Results:① Of 208 PTC patients, DLN was detected in 144 patients (69.23%) . The detection rate of DLN was related to gender, number of central lymph nodes (excluding DLN) removed and metastasis (all P<0.05) . Male, greater number of nodes in the central compartment (excluding DLN) was more favorable for DLN detection. ② The rate of DLN metastasis was 18.27% (38/208) . In the univariate analysis, DLN metastasis was significantly associated with the following variables:gender, whether it is microcarcinoma, isthmus involvement, number of lesions, extrathyroidal extension, tumor size, number of central lymph nodes (excluding DLN) removed and metastasis (all P<0.05) . In the multivariate analysis, tumor size larger than 1 cm, isthmus involvement and greater number of central lymph nodes (excluding DLN) metastasis were independent risk factors of DLN metastasis ( P<0.05) . ③ The sensitivity of DLN metastasis to predict extranodal invasion, central and lateral lymph node metastasis was 54.54%, 37.36% and 62.86%, with specificity of 78.69%, 92.45% and 55.56%, respectively. ④ Patients with DLN metastasis were more likely to receive total thyroidectomy, bilateral central lymph node dissection, and lateral cervical lymph node dissection. Conclusions:Due to high rate of DLN detected and metastasis, DLN should be routinely dissected. Patients with DLN metastasis predict high risk characteristics of PTC and extensive lymph node metastasis, which is of clinical significance for lymph node dissection.
