Objective To discuss the causes leading to dissatisfying result after operation therapy for BPH.Methods 42 patients who had not acquired satisfying result after operation therapy for BPH were underwent the urodynamic examination.Results 42 patients were classified into two groups according to their different symptoms:difficuhy to void,32 case8,including 8 cases with low contractifity of detrusor,and 24 cases with Madder outflow obstruction(BOO);incontinence,10 eases,including 6 cases of urgency incontinence and 4 cases of stress incontinence.Condusion We can see that the causes leading to dissatisfying resuh after operation for BPH are mainly the dysfunction of detmsor and BOO,and the result of urodynamic examine can guide us the causes and the next therapy.

Objective: To investigate the effect of function of knee on quality of life (QOL) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Method: Forty patients with knee OA were recruited. Their function, pain and range of motion (ROM) of knee were assessed with Lequesne index, Lysholm knee score (LKSS), visual analogue scale (VAS) and protractor measure respectively. QOL was evaluated with arthritis impact measurement scale (AIMS). Result: The scores of AIMS, Lequesne and VAS in female were significantly higher than that in male. And the LKSS in female was significantly lower than that in male (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between AIMS score and Lequesne index, VAS score and limit of ROM, but a negative correlation between AIMS and LKSS (P<0.05). Conclusion: The function of knee and QOL in female patients with OA were worse than that in male patients. Pain, limited ROM and weaken function in knee could effect QOL in OA patients to some extent. Health education and clinical treatment should be provided to improve the function of knee and QOL in OA patients.

Objective To explore the correlationship between Cystatin C and the cognitive dysfunction, encephalatrophy and the cerebral perfusion in Alzheimer's disease ( AD ) patients, and to analyze the probable mechanisms of the Cystatin C level alterations. Methods For the 61 male and 55 female AD patients,the levels of Cystatin C,Urea,Cr andβ2?microglobulin were detected by biochemistry analysis.The hypocampus volume and Ev?ans index were measured by MRI imaging. The cerebral perfusion was evaluated by magnetic resonance perfusion imaging of arterial spin labeling technique and image processing. The cognitive level of AD patients was done by MMSE scale and MoCA scale. Results The Cystatin C levels in serum of male AD patients were dramatically dif?ferent from female AD patients(male:(0.95±0.20)mg/L,female:(1.32±0.41)mg/L)(P=0.04). For male AD patients,age and Cystatin C had a correlationship among the hypocampus volume((6157.14±355.58)mm3),Evans index(0.33±0.02),MMSE score(21.66±7.97),and MoCA score(21.96±6.19)(age:P=0.040,0.049,0.035, 0.039;Cystatin C:P=0.035,0.038,0.037,0.035),but for female only age((79.52±8.82)years) had a correla?tionship with the hypocampus volume((6319.53±377.74)mm3),Evans index(0.31±0.02),MMSE score(22.93± 6.22),and MoCA score(23.41±8.20)(P=0.044,0.045,0.047,0.046). For male AD patients,the marked correla?tionship was showed between Cystatin C and the index of cerebral perfusion(P=0.034),but for female patients, there's no correlationship(P=0.086) . Conclusion The Cystatin C level is distinctly different in male and female AD patients. The Cystatin C level in male AD patients maybe be an index to predict the degree of the cognitive dys?function and the level of cerebral perfusion.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the infection status and drug resistance of Mycoplasma strains isolated from genitourinary tract. METHODS The IST kit produced by Bio-Merieux was used to culture the Mycoplasma strains and to do drug susceptibility test. RESULTS The Mycoplasma infection ratio was 41.0%,with Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) 71.9%,Mycoplasma hominis(Mh) 2.3%,and mixed infection 25.8%,respectively.The drug susceptibility test showed that drug resistance ratios were as follows: to erythromycin 58.7%,ciprofloxacin 50.0%,ofloxacin 41.3%,pristinamycin 3.3%,josamycin 5.4% and doxycycline 7.6%. CONCLUSIONS Mycoplasma infection in genitourinary tract is mainly due to Uu infection.We should rationally choose and use antibiotics according to the drug susceptibility,and josamycin is very effective.

Objective: To explore pathogeny and clinical effect of physiotherapy in young patients with lumbar disc hemiation (LDH). Method: Eighteen young LDH patients at 20-30 years old were administered comprehensive physiotherapy including lumbar traction, pulsed short wave therapy, pulsed magnetotherapy or low frequency modulated medium frequency electrotherapy. Before and after treatment, lumbar function was assessed with JOA scale. Result: Nine patients had specific trauma history; nine patients had sedentary lifestyle; five patients worked lor more than 8h/d in standing position; four patients had body mass index (BMI) 24-28. There was no significant difference in age, BMI and JOA scores between male and female group (P＞0.05). Patients scored significantly higher after treatment (P＜0.05). The remarkable effective rate of physiotherapy was 72.22%. Conclusion: Trauma, sedentary lifestyle, standing for long time, overweight or obesity are primary risk factors of LDH for youth and should be prevented by health education. Physiotherapy is significant efficient for young LDH patients.

Objective To observe the principles of cell proliferation and apoptosis in the developing mouse cochlear sensory epithelium, and investigate correlation with differentiation of hair cells.Methods The developing inner ears of C57BL/6 embryonic mice,aged from eighth embryonic day (E8) to just natal mice (P0), were observed by transmission electron microscope.Results Cochlear primordium arose at E10. After E14, sensory epithelia began to differentiate. Corti primordium arose at E16, and shapes of supporting and hair cells tend to mature. But the organ of Corti was still poorly developed at P0. Meanwhile Cell karyokinesis of the cochlea arose at E11 ,then gradually increased. But it began to decrease from E14. Cell apoptosis arose at E13.It reached its peak from E14 to E15,then it began to decrease gradually.Conclusion Cell proliferation and apoptosis were inevitable in the developing mouse cochlea.Cell proliferation, cell apoptosis and differentiation of hair cells consequently arose and overlapped each other. Homeostasis between cell proliferation and apoptosis has an important role in the developing mouse cochlear sensory epithelium.

Objectives To observe the clinical efficacy of combined treatment with montelukast and intranasal steroid for chronic adenoid hypertrophy in children. Methods 47 children with chronic adenoid hypertrophy were selected and ran-domly divided into drug combination group (n=23) treated with montelukast combined with intranasal steroids for two months and control group (n=24) treated with intranasal steroids only for two months. Clinical efficacy was compared between two groups by clinical score and the result of fibronasopharyngoscopy. Results The clinical scores were 0 (0, 1.0) and 0(0, 0) at 2 weeks and 2 months after treatment in combination group, and 1.0 (1.0, 1.0) and 0 (0, 1.0) in control group. There were sig-nificant differences between two groups (Z=2.404, P<0.05;Z=2.069, P<0.05). Conclusions The clinical efficacy of combined treatment with Montelukast and intranasal steroid is better than that of treatment with intranasal steroid only in children with chronic adenoid hypertrophy.

Objective To evaluate the morbidity of the post-prostatectomy incontinence of supra-pubic transvesical prostatectomy(SPP) and transurethral resection of prostate(TURP). Methods One hundred and thirtyfive patients were divided into two groups. 82 patients underwent SPP and 53 patients underwent TURP. We ob-served the morbidity and the time lasting of post-prostatectomy incontinence, the severity of post-prostatectomy in-continence as evaluated by Stamey incontinence grading system,patients who had more than one week postoperativeincontinence were received urodynamic tests,then we got the information of their incontinence types. Results We found that patients who underwent SPP had higher morbidity, severity and time lasting than those who underwent TURP. SPP group had much more morbidity of stress incontinence than TURP group, but the same morbidity of ur-gent incontinence after operation as the later. Conclusion TURP may be better than SPP in consideration of the post-prostateetomy incontinence. SPP group has more stress incontinence and it may be caused by complete resection of prostate and damnifieation of the mucous membrane of membranous urethra.

BACKGROUND: The osteoinduction by biomaterials has been proven in various animal experiments. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the osteoinduction of porous calcium phosphate cement on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s. METHODS: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were isolated from rabbits aged 1 week in vitro and labeled by PKH-67 or PKH-26, respectively. Forty-eight adult New Zealand white rabbits were randomized into four groups and porous calcium phosphate cement was implanted into both sides of gluteus maximus in each rabbit. Then, 1 mL PKH-26-labeled bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s (1×1010/L) were injected into the superior gluteal artery branch at each side of gluteus maximus near the femur, and 1 mL PKH-67-labeled bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s (1×1010/L) injected into tissues around the cement (group A); 1 mL PKH-26-labeled bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s (1×1010/L) were injected into the each side of superior gluteal artery branch (group B); 1 mL PKH-67-labeled bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s (1×1010/L) were injected into tissues around the cement (group C); the same amount of normal saline was injected into tissues around the cement (group D). At 3, 7 and 12 weeks after implantation, the cement and its surrounding tissues were extracted and detected by fluorescence microscope and Massion staining. Expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 was analyzed by RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Under fluorescence microscope, PKH-26-labeled bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s attached fast and distributed homogeneously; however, PKH-67-labeled bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s attached slowly and exhibited a gradual y homogeneous distribution. Massion staining showed that ectopic new bone formation appeared to have an upward trend in al groups, and the area of new bones in groups A, B and C were larger than that of group D at different time points after implantation. There was a significantly higher expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 in groups A, B and C compared with the group D at different time points after implantation (P < 0.05), and the expression was the highest in the group A (P < 0.05). In conclusion, the porous calcium phosphate cement can induce bone barrow mesenchymal stem cel s chemotaxis and osteogenetic differentiation. Besides, osteoblasts are differentiated from both the surrounding capil aries and body fluid, and capil ary-derived mesenchymal stem cel s occupy the important position.
