Objective To study the clinical significance of the serum level of soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) in diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer. Methods The serum level of sE-selectin was measured by ELISA in 84 patients with colorectal cancer and 30 normal individuals as control. The changes in serum sE-selectin level of 54 patients with colorectal cancer were analyzed preoperatively and postoperatively, and the positive ratio of sE-selectin was compared with that of CEA, CA199 and CA242 in patients with colorectal cancer. Results The serum sE-selectin level in colorectal cancer was significantly higher than that of normal control (P0.05). There was statistically significant difference between the patients with and without hematogenous metastasis (P

Object To study the antitumor mechanism of sea algae polysaccharide (SP). Methods The membrane fluidity of the S 180 and H 22 mice was observed by DPH fluorescent probe method. Results SP could increase the membrance fluidity of the S 180 and decrease that of the H 22 . Conclusion SP showed the antitumor effect through returning the tumor cell membrance fluidity to the normal one.

Stone retropulsion during ureteroscopic lithotripsy is a common troublesome problem for most urologists. Stone retropulsion can result in increase in health care cost and increased operative time. With the popularisation of ureteros?copy, additional procedures to treat residual migrated fragments has drawn more and more attention and research. In recent years, many equipment, devices and techniques are designed to resolve this big puzzle. We reviewed the literatures to sum?mary the strategy for preventing stone retropulsion during ureteroscopic lithotripsy.

Objective To assess examinational methods of Multi-slice CT(MSCT)in diagnosis of palatine lesions. Methods 28 cases were performed MSCT examination with the conventional method,extending -tongue method,colliding-tongue method and pronouncing method. All images were reconstructed by means of multiplana reconstruction (MPR) and CT virtual endoscope (CTVE). Results Correct diagnosis were obtained through the complementarity of the methods. Conclusion Reasonable examination methods of MSCT is apt to display palatine lesions.

Results 22 patients were diagnosed correctly by using MSCTA. Compared to DSA and/or surgical results. Sensitivity, specificity and accurate rate were all 100%. Conclusion It is important to strengthen the QA and QC of the 16 slices helical CT angiography in the lower limb.

Objective To verify the best treatment strategy in reducing prostate specific antigen (PSA) progression and death rate in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer by a meta-analysis. Methods The literature search strategy was followed according to the Collaborative Review Group search strategy. Published data of randomized clinical trials comparing radical prostatectomy (RP) plus adjuvant therapy to either RP alone or other treatment were analyzed. Both fixed effect model and randomized effect model were applied and odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was also used as the effect size 'estimate. Results Eight clinical trials were chosen with total in-volved cases of 3826. There were 5 trials compared post radical prostatectomy plus adjuvant hormonal therapy with radical prostatectomy alone. PSA progression was used as the indicator of progression and the combined OR was 0.86 (95%CI 0.48-1.56). There were 3 trails compared the combination of radical prostateetomy with hormonal therapy and radical prostatectomy alone. Disease specific death rate was used as the evaluating criteria and the OR was 0.72(95%CI,0.51-1.02). Conclusion RP plus adjuvant hormonal therapy can reduce PSA progression of patients with locally advanced pros-tate cancer, but it has no significant effect on disease specific death rate.
