Surgery is the treatment of choice for pancreatic carcinoma.However,only 20％ of patients are eligible for surgery,and local control of disease and survival are not good.Although non-surgical treatments result in poor outcome,chemotherapy has been shown to be an effective treatment.The role of irradiation has not been well-established.Modern irradiation technology has shown promising results but there is still lack of strong prospective research evidence to support its widespread use.Irradiation brings along problems which need to be resolved,including target motion,definition of irradiation target,optimal fractionation,total treatment time and the treatment sequence of surgery,chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Objective To explore the effects of exercise nursing intervention on renal transplant recipients.Methods A convenient sample of 64 renal transplant recipients during rehabilitation period were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 32 cases in each group.The experimental group received routine care and rehabilitation exercise,while the control group just received routine care.The body mass index(BMI),blood pressure and heart rate were measured in the two groups.Results Before intervention the differences of BMI,heart rate,blood pressure between the two groups were not statistically significant.However,after intervention,the BMI and blood pressure of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group,but there was no significant differences in heart rate.Conclusions Rehabilitation exercise nursing intervention contributes to raise recipients' quality of life and promote whole rehabilitation.

Objective:To observe whether murine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)implantation improves the survival of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)-bearing mice,and to investigate whether MSCs can differentiate to hepatocytes in HCC microenvironment in a mouse model of orthotopic HCC and its effects on tumor cells.Methods:Murine bone morrow MSCs were obtained through adherent culture method combined with magnetic cell sorting CD45-,CD11b-cells,labeled with CFSE in vitro.Phenotypes of MSCs were analyzed by flow cytometry.A murine model of orthotopic HCC was induced by intrahepatic injection of 5?105 murine H22 hepatoma cells in a BALB/c mouse.In this experiment,twelve BALB/c mice were randomly divided into MSCs implantation and saline administration groups on the 7th day after establishment of orthotropic HCC.CFSE labeled MSCs were injected into tumor and/or normal liver tissue in MSCs implantation group.The life span of HCC-bearing mice was observed.After three weeks,albumin was determined by immunohistochemistry.The livers of HCC-bearing mice were observed by light microscopy.Results:In MSCs group,the mean survival time was 25 days(95%Confidence interval:22-28 d),while,in the control group,mean survival time was 21 days(95%CI:20-23 d).However,the statistical difference was not obvious between the two groups(P=0.0713).It showed that the CFSE labeled cells mainly localized in the border of tumor,also a few in the tumor bed,and expressed albumin.Interestingly,there was a larger area of necrosis in the tumor bed,compared with that in the controls.Conclusion:It can be concluded that MSCs not only could engraft in livers of carcinoma-bearing BALB/c mice,but also could differentiate to hepatocyte-like cell.At the same time,MSCs might induce tumor cells necrosis.Further mechanism need to be studied.

Objective To make an inquiry into how to reconstruct a lifelike ear, and which is one of the most thorny problem in plastic surgery. Methods The operation was divided into two stages: the first stage was that an expander was put into a patient's opisthotic subscutaneous region and lobe of the ear was transposed or laid aside; the second stage was that the expander was taken off by a 2.5～3.0 ㎝ incision at the top or bottom of the expanded flap. The reniform incision except the preauriclar pedical part which was 0.5～0.6 ㎝ away from the expander edge was slit until the deep fascia and dissected forword at the same layer in order to form a "bag-shape" flap. Then, an auricle model was put and fixed and aspirating tube was inserted in the "bag". The back of the reconstructive ear was repaired with the full thickness graft. Results It made operating procedure simple, negative pressure plasty looked good, the blood circuit of flap was increased and occurrence rate of complication reduced. The operation had been performed on 18 patients with a satisfactory results. Conclusion The success rate of the procedure is higher and the shape of the reconstructed ear is more lifelike than that of the traditional one.
