Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of photoselective green laser vaporization of bladder tumor (PVBT). Methods A total of 522 patients with bladder tumor were enrolled in present study from January 2010 to May 2015, including 405 cases of non muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and 117 cases of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). All of patients were treated with PVBT and intravesical instillation of epirubicin. Patients with MIBC received intravenous chemotherapy (kisi-hama and cisplatin). Results The hospitalization time was (7.32±1.28) days, the operation time was (27.08±5.36) min, and the indwelling urinary catheter was (2.42±0.34) days for patients in NMIBC group. During the follow-up period (12-60 months), 38 cases (9.4％) relapsed, of which 3 cases underwent radical cystectomy, and other 35 cases underwent PVBT again. All 405 patients were alive at the end of follow-ups. The hospitalization time was(26.18 ± 1.92) days, the operation time was (38.32 ± 6.54) min, and the time of indwelling urinary catheter was (2.72 ± 0.85) days for patients of MIBC group. During the follow-up period (12-60 months), 19 cases (16.2％) relapsed. Among them, 4 patients underwent radical cystectomy, and other 15 cases underwent PVBT. Six patients died from distant organ metastasis (including 2 cases of pulmonary metastasis and 4 cases of bone metastasis), and other 111 patients survived. Conclusion PVBT is safe and effective in the clinical application, especially for NMIBC and MIBC patients who are unable or unwilling to undergo radical cystectomy.

Objective To investigate the interaction of pullulan acetate nanoparticles (PANs) and bovine serum albumin (BSA),and to provide the basis for in vivo pharmacokinetic study of PANs.Methods Mixed solutions of different concentration of PANs and BSA solution was prepared,the interaction was studied by fluorescence quenching method and circular dichroism (CD) measurement.Apparent quenching constant (Kq) between the PANs and BSA was calculated,and the anti-stress effect induced by urea and heating of PANs-BSA solution was observed.Results The fluorescence spectrum of BSA was affected by PANs on density-related manner,and Kq calculated by the modified Stern-Volmer plot increased from 2.64×104 to 3.55 ×l05 with the concentration of PANs increased from 0.015 mg/ml to 0.25 mg/ml.With the denaturation of urea or heating,the CD spectrum of PANs-BSA and free BSA had the similar variation tendency.Conclusions The fluorescence spectrum display results show that interaction between PANs and BSA exists,but the interaction does not protect the BSA from degeneration by urea and heating.
