Objective To discuss the efficacy and safety of transurethral plasmakinetic resection of the prostate(PKRP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH).Methods A British made Bipolar plasmakinetic resection system(Gyrus) was employed in this series.Started from the 6 o’clock point,the middle lobe of the prostate was resected,followed by the left and right lobes,which were resected down to the prostate capsule.And then the bladder neck was cut down.The apical tissues were resected to the anterior border of the seminal colliculus.After the operation,a F22 three-channel catheter was indwelled for 3 to 5 days after the operation,and a balloon was place in the bladder neck.Results The procedure was completed successfully in all of the cases with a mean operation time of(85.0?12.0) min,and a median blood loss 115.0 ml(30 to 650).Ten patients received blood transfusion during the operation(200 to 400 ml).No case showed transurethral resection syndrome or obturator nerve reflex.Fourteen patients developed inflammatory stricture of the anterior ureter and was then cured by dilating the urinary tract;15 cases showed transient urinary incontinence and was cured after pelvic floor muscle training for 1 to 3 weeks.Follow-up was available in the patients for 1 to 6 months,during which the mean Qmax of the patients significantly increased compared to that preoperation [from(7.6?2.4) ml/s to(22.6?3.4) ml/s,t=13.582,P=0.000),and the IPSS and life quality score markedly decreased [from 27.3?1.5 and 4.3?0.4 to 7.0?1.2 and 2.1?0.8;t=16.394 and 9.761,P=0.000 and 0.005,respectively] Conclusion PKRP is an effective and safe treatment for BPH.

AIM: To investigate the physiological function of the novel serine protease SNC19 protein and its possible role in cancer invasion and metastasis. METHODS: Monoclonal antibodies directly against SNC19 extracellular domain was prepared. The protein and SNC19 mRNA expression were determined in different kinds of cell lines respectively by Western blot and Northern blot analysis. Cellular migration and adhesion abilities were assayed by monoclonal antibody blocking method. RESULTS: Western blot analysis showed there were two bands of SNC19 protein in BCAP37, COLO205, SW480 cells at about 120 kD and 60 kD while only one band in SW620 cells at 60 kD; Northern blots showed a approximate 3.4-kilobase fragment appearing in most epithelial-derived cell lines with this only form and high levels but no detection was obtained in OV, TCA8113, KB and SGC7901 cells. In antibody blocking experiments, the migration of SW480 cells was significantly inhibited compared with the control and the abilities of (SW480/SW480), SW480/NIH3T3 adhesion increased at the beginning of the experiments, but the difference reduced (along) with the time passed.CONCLUSION: SNC19 protein is closely related with cellular homogeneous and heterogeneous adhesion as well as cellular motility. As a novel serine protease, it may participate both in physiological and pathological processes, such as cell migration, tissue remodeling and cancer invasion and metastasis.

The postoperative clinical score (2.48?0.25) was significantly lower than the preoperative score (6.54?0.93) ( t =21.497, P

Objective To compare the characteristics of remifentanil and sufentanil for tracheal intubation general anesthesia in gyneco-logical laparoscopic operation. Methods 80 patients received gynecological laparoscopic operation were randomly divided into the remifen-tanil group and the sufentanil group with 40 patients in each group, and they were performed total intravenous anesthesia with remifentanil or sufentanil respectively. Compare the changes of heart rate, mean arterial pressure in the two groups before and after induction, at the time of intubation, pneumoperitoneum, and after the operation. And differences in two groups were recorded in the recovery time, extubation time, postoperative pain in 24 hours, exhaust time and postoperative complications. Results Change trend and magnitude in heart rate, mean ar-terial pressure had no significant difference in the two groups (P>0. 05). The recovery time, extubation time in remifentanil group was shor-ter (P<0. 01), postoperative pain in 24 hours in sufentanil group was more mild (P<0. 01). Exhaust time and postoperative complications of the two groups had no significant difference (P>0. 05). Conclusion Remifentanil and sufentanil used in gynecological laparoscopic op-eration can achieve good effect. and effects of the two drugs on hemodynamics were similar. Remifentanil can recieve better effect in terms of recovery time, while sufentanil has better postoperative analgesia effect.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Aidi injection combined with TP regimen in the treat-ment of non-small cell lung cancer. METHODS:62 patients with non-small cell lung cancer were randomly divided into control group and observation group,31 cases in each group. Control group received TP regimen alone,observation group additionally re-ceived 40 ml Aidi injection,dissolved in 500 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injection by intravenous infusion. 21 d was a treatment course,and it lasted 4 courses. The level of inflammatory cytokines before and after treatment and post-treatment quality of life, short-term efficacy,patients’satisfaction and toxicity reactions in 2 groups were compared. RESULTS:After treatment,the level of inflammatory cytokines in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The effective rate of life quality (80.64%) and short-term efficacy (83.87%)in observation group significant were higher than control group(32.25%,64.52%,respectively),the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Satisfaction degree (96.77%) in observation group was significantly higher than control group (77.42%);and the incidences of thrombocytopenia,leukopenia,abnormal liver function were significantly lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Aidi injection combined with TP regimen shows good efficacy and little toxicity in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer,and it helps to reduce the level of inflammatory cyto-kines in patients,improving immune function and the quality of life of patients.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy on hemiplegic spasticity after cerebral infarction treated with plum blossom needle tapping therapy at the key points and Bobath therapy.

METHODSEighty patients were collected, in compliance with the inclusive criteria of hemiplegic spasticity after cerebral infarction, and randomized into an observation group and a control group, 40 cases in each one. In the control group, Bobath manipulation therapy was adopted to relieve spasticity and the treatment of 8 weeks was required. In the observation group, on the basis of the treatment as the control group, the tapping therapy with plum blossom needle was applied to the key points, named Jianyu (LI 15), Jianliao (LI 14), Jianzhen (SI 9), Hegu (LI 4), Chengfu (BL 36), Zusanli (ST 36), Xiyangguan (GB 33), etc. The treatment was given for 15 min each time, once a day. Before treatment, after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, the Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and Barthel index (BI) were adopted to evaluate the motor function of the extremity and the activity of daily life in the patients of the two groups separately. The modified Ashworth scale was used to evaluate the effect of anti-spasticity.

RESULTSIn 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, FMA: scores and BI scores were all significantly increased as compared with those before treatment in the two groups: (both P<0. 05). The results in 8 weeks of treatment in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group (all P<0. 05). In 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, the scores of spasticity state were improved as compared with those before treatment in the patients of the two groups (all P<0. 05). The result in 8 weeks of treatment in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group (P<0. 05). In 8 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate of anti-spasticity was 90. 0% (36/40) in the observation group, better than 75. 0% (30/40) in the control group (P<0. 05).

CONCLUSIONThe tapping therapy with plum blossom needle at the key points combined with Bobath therapy effectively relieves hemiplegic spasticity in the patients of cerebral infarction and improves the motor function of extremity and the activity of daily life.

Teratoma is a true neoplasm composed of tissues from all three germinal layers (ectoderm,endoderm and mesoderm)and may ex-hibit variable levels of maturity.It is not common in the head and neck(5.5%of all teratomas).A case of teratoma treated in our department is reported in this paper.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of mesalazine sustained-release tablets in combination with azathioprine in the small intestine Crohn’s disease therapy.Methods 60 cases of small intestinal Crohn disease patients were randomly divided into two groups and the control group 30 cases.Observation group mesalazine sustained-release tablets 1.5 mg ~2.0 mg/( kg? d ) , 1 ~2 times/d, the other in combination with azathioprine 1 g/times, 2 times/d treatment;control group received azathioprine alone 1 g/times, 2 times/d, both groups were treated for 30 weeks after treatment were compared activity index score, clinical remission rate, mucosal healing rate, blood biochemical parameters before and after treatment, and record adverse reactions during treatment.ResuIts The two groups of patients after treatment than before treatment activity index score decreased significantly (P<0.05), but the observation group were more than the control group decreased significantly (P<0.05); observation group complete remission rate and mucosal healing rates better than the control group (P<0.05);the WBC count, ESR and CRP level were lower than before treatment (P<0.05);AIL two levels and TLB levels were significantly increased compared with that before treatment (P<0.01), but the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05 ); the incidence of adverse observation group were 26.67%, significantly higher than the 6.67%( P<0.05 ) .ConcIusion Mesalazine sustained-release tablets in combination with azathioprine therapy compared with small bowel Crohn’s disease treatment is more effective azathioprine alone, can significantly improve the therapeutic effect, but incidence of adverse reactions is higher.

Objective To investigate the related risk factors of bone cement leakage after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture.Methods A retrospective study was made on 108 patients (114 vertebrae) undergone PVP and PKP between January 2008 and June 2014.There were 32 patients with cement leakage and 76 patients without cement leakage.Between-group differences were analyzed in terms of gender,age,number of one-time treated vertebrae,anatomic dissection,surgical procedures (PKP or PVP),integrity of the posterior vertebral wall,puncture approaches (unilateral or bilateral),technical level of surgeons and bone cement volume.Results Bone cement leakage occurred in 36 vertebrae (with the proportion of 31.6％).Cement leakage was associated with number of one-time treated vertebrae,surgical procedures,fractured condition,and bone cement volume (P ＜ 0.05),but not with gender,age,anatomical site of injury,puncture approaches,and technical level of surgeons (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Bone cement leakage after PKP or PVP correlated with number of vertebrae with one-time therapy,surgical procedures,fractured condition,and volume of bone cement.A good master of technical procedures and indications and suitable injection of high viscosity bone cement can help reduce the incidence of cement leakage.

Objective To investigate the possible existence of HBoV in children with acute respiratory infections in Nanjing area and explore its relationship with clinical characteristics.Methods A total of 397 nasopharyngeal secretion samples were collected from children with acute respiratory infection,admitted from July 2009 to June 2010 in Nanjing Children'S Hospital affiliated to Nanjing Medical University,and 50 cases of children without symptoms of respiratory infection were recruited as control group,whose nasopharyngeal secretion samples were also collected.HBoV was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.MP and CT were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR in those HBoV-positive samples.RSV,ADV,IVA,IVB,PIV-1,PIV-2,PIV-3 and hMPV were detected by direct antigen-specific immunofluorescence assays.HBoV NP-1 fragments were amplified and sequenced in 5 HBoV positive samples randomly selected.The results were compared with the known GenBank sequence,and thereby the phylogenetic tree was established.The epidemiological characteristics,clinical presentation and the final clinical diagnosis of HBoV were analyzed according to the clinical data of the HBoV-positive patients.Results Thirty-three HBoV-positive cases were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method with a positivity rate of 8. 3% ( 33/397 ). Among the 33 HBoV-positive cases, 19 cases (57.6%) were multiple infections with HBoV and other pathogens, the top three of which were MP (27.3% ,9/33 ),RSV (24.2% , 8/33 ) and PIV-3 ( 12. 1% ,4/33 ). Affected children aged from 7 to 36 months old accounted for 75.8% of the total ( 25/33 ). The measured HBoV NP-1 gene sequences of 5 specimens were consistent,indicating a high homology (99% to 100% ) with the stl, st2 and WHL-1. Conclusions HBoV is one of the pathogens of children's acute respiratory infections in Nanjing. HBoV NP-1 gene is highly conserved,with little variation in different seasons and in different regions and therefore can be used as a marker for real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and other methods.
