OBJECTIVE: To identify anti-hypoxia ingredients extracted from Portulaca oleracea and to find out the possible mechanism of its anti-hypoxia actions. METHODS: Seventy mice were randomly divided into seven groups which were untreated (normal saline), ginsenosides-treated, polysaccharide-treated, acidic components-treated, basic components-treated, alkaloids-treated and flavones-treated groups, and the ingredients of polysaccharide, acidic components, basic components, alkaloids and flavones were extracted from Portulaca olerace. The mice in each group were fed with corresponding ingredients for one week respectively. Then the survival time of mice in hypoxic conditions was observed. Another 90 mice were divided into 3 groups: untreated (normal saline), ginsenosides-treated and flavones-treated groups. The mice in each of these 3 groups were divided into 3 subgroups according to 12-, 24- and 36-hour exposure to hypoxia (10% oxygen and 90% nitrogen), respectively. After exposure to hypoxia, the red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb) concentration and hematocrit (HCT) in mice were determined. The plasma erythropoietin (EPO) levels of mice were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the relative values of EPO mRNA in renal tissue and pallium of mice were determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS: The survival time of mice in hypoxic conditions in flavones-treated group was significantly longer than that in the untreated group. The RBC, Hb concentration, HCT, plasma EPO level and the relative values of EPO mRNA in renal tissue and pallium of mice were significantly higher in the flavones-treated group than those in the untreated group. CONCLUSION: The anti-hypoxia ingredients extracted from Portulaca oleracea are flavones and the anti-hypoxia effects may be obtained by improving the expression level of EPO and accelerating the generations of erythrocyte and Hb.

Objecfive To explore the value of endoscopic uhrasonography(EUS)in diagnosis and preoperative assessment of esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 57 patients with esophageal cancer were examined by EUS.The image features,depth of invasion and lymph node metastasis obtained by EUS were analyzed and compared with postoperative outcomes.Results Esophageal cancer was characterized as an irregular hypoeehoic mass with partial or total destruction of normal esophageal wall structure under EUS.Compared with post-operative pathological findings,the consistent rates of EUS diagnosis in depth of invasion,T staging,and N staging were 84.2%(48/57),87.7%(50/57)and 84.2%(48/57),respectively.Conclusion EUS exhibited high diagnostic accuracy in T staging of esophageal cancer,which is valuable in managements and prognosis of esophageal cancer.

Objective: To investigate the antimotion sickness effects of ginsenosides combined with dexamethasone in rats. Methods: Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: normal saline, scopolamine-treated, ginsenosides-treated, dexamethasone-treated and ginsenosides plus dexamethasone-treated groups. There were 10 rats in each group. The rats in each group were fed with corresponding ingredients respectively, and then the rats were exposed to abnormal acceleration for one hour. The motion sickness index, the level of kaolin consumption and the course and time of spontaneous activity were observed. Results: The motion sickness index and the level of kaolin consumption of acceleration-exposed rats in ginsenosides plus dexamethasone-treated group were significantly lower than those in normal saline group. And the course and time of spontaneous activity of acceleration-exposed rats in ginsenosides plus dexamethasone-treated group were significantly higher than those in normal saline group. The level of body weight increment of acceleration-exposed rats in ginsenosides plus dexamethasone-treated group was significantly higher than that in dexamethasone-treated group. Conclusion: Ginsenosides combined with dexamethasone can significantly increase tolerance to acceleration of rats, and the drug combination can decrease side effects of methylprednisolone, such as body weight loss.

Objective To investigate retrospectively CT,MRI and DSA appearances of giant cell tumors(GCT) of bone in unusual sites,in order to improve the diagnosis of it.Methods CT,MRI and DSA features of GCT in 11 cases proved by surgery and pathology,were retrospectively analyzed.GCTs located in iliac bone in 4,sacral vertebrae in 3,ischial bone in 2, calcaneus and temporal bone in one respectively.Results (1) At CT,the tumors were mainly showed as expanding growth and osteolytic destruction,without periosteal reaction and calcification.(2)At MRI,the tumors were hypo-,isointensity on T_1WI and heterogeneously iso, hyperintensity on T_2WI.Low intensity curvilinear strips inside the tumor on T_1WI and T_2WI were found in 5 patients,and "bright patches sign" on T_2WI were also displayed in 2 cases.(3)At DSA,abundant blood supply to the tumors was demonstrated,the thickened and twisted feeding artery and,"tumor's stain sign" were also found.Conclusion To analyse imaging data synthetically,including CT,MR imaging and DSA,can improve the knowledge of GCT of bone in unusual sites.

Objective To prospectively evaluate the risk factors of complete resection in early gastric cancer (EGC) with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD),and to guide the choice of treatment methods.Methods This study prospectively evaluated the endoscopic features of 66 EGCs,including the lesion size,presence or absence of ulceration,the extent of differentiation,invasion depth and entire margins of the EGC,then compared them with postoperative pathologic results and analysed these factors.Results The lesion size of the high grade intmepithelial neoplasia (H) group and the intramucosal carcinoma (M) group were mainly less than 30 mm (90.9％ vs.88.5％),but 57.1％ of the submucosal carcinoma (SM) were more than 30 mm.There was a significant difference between any two of three groups (P ＜ 0.05).Fourteen EGCs who got ulceration without invasion beyond mucosal muscularis underwent ESD successfully,and the basal or dissected margin had no residual tumor cells confirmed pathologically.And no tumor cell infiltration or lymph node metastasis was discovered.Of 45 EGCs with ESD,the underestimation rate for horizontal extent determined by white light and chromoendoscopy was higher than that of magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (ME-NBI) (15.6％ vs.2.2％,P ＜0.05).Diagnostic accuracy for the extent of differenciation by conventional endoscopy was 93.9％ (31/32,P ＞ 0.1),but it's unable to determine the extent of differentiation by ME-NBI.The accuracy of the group H was 84.8％ (28/33),that of M was 57.7％ (15/26),that of SM was 71.4％ (5/7),and there was a significant difference between group H and group M (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion To achieve complete resection of EGC with ESD,the lesion more than 30 mm,presence of ulceration,undifferentiated type,deep infiltration should be considered as the risk factors,and it's also important to identify the horizontal extent of EGC to avoid unnecessary operation.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS)guided implantation of 5-FU seeds for progressive gastric cancer.Methods A total of 23 patients with progressive gastric cancer and outflow obstruction were enrolled into the study.During the endoscopy procedure, 45-60 5-FU seeds were implanted into the tumors with guidance of EUS, with an average dose of 100 mg.Volumes of tumor were examined with 3D-EUS before and after the treatment.Results A total of 33 procedures of 5-FU implantation were performed.By measurements of 3D-EUS, the numbers of patients with complete respons, partial response, no change, progressive disease were 1, 15, 6 and 1, respectively.In terms of outflow obstruction improvement, significant effect, obvious effect and average effect were achieved in 6, 7 and 9 patients, respectively, with an overall response rate at 91.4%.Conclusion EUS-guided 5-FU seed implantation in progressive gastric cancer is safe,reliable and effective with few complications.3D-EUS may be a new method to evaluate curative effect.

Objective To introduce improved program for traction wire production in endoscopic submucosal dis-section assisted by oral traction. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 40 patients who received en-doscopy intervention. Through the use of improved traction and normal traction, they were divided into experimental group and control group. Then analyze and compare their clinical data like gender, age, traction line installed perfect time, fixed lesions after hemostatic clip off times, one-time complete resection, enbloc resection rate, bleeding and perforation and other complications and other clinical conditions. Results The improvement time was (53.30 ±12.85) s in experimental group, it was significantly shorter than that in control group (105.00 ± 11.68) s ( = 3.42, <0.05). The experimental group fixed lesions after hemostatic clamp off times were significantly less than that in con-trol group (χ2=2.37, <0.05). Conclusions Using innovative methods, adequate preoperative preparation, the op-erator's tacit understanding of nursing cooperation, close attention to the disease after surgery is the key to achieve the desired results of endoscopic surgery.

Objective To study the relationship between gastritis cystica profunda (GCP)and early gastric cancer (EGC),and to explore the diagnosis and treatment of GCP.Methods Clinical data of 17 patients,who were pathologically diagnosed as having GCP,including clinical symptoms,white light endo-scopic findings,magnifying endoscopic features,EUS outcomes and histopathological characteristics were an-alyzed.Results All 17 patients of GCP had no specific clinical symptoms or history of gastric surgery prior to the operation.Eight lesions were located at cardiac,4 at gastric body,4 at gastric antrum and 1 at gastric angle.As to the morphology,3 cases were type Ⅰ,3 type Ⅰ +Ⅱc,9 type Ⅱa +Ⅱc,1 type Ⅱc and 1 type Ⅱb +Ⅱc.The mean lesion size was 1.8 cm.Of 16 patients with preoperative EUS examination,11 patients were found to have cystic changes,with the diagnostic rate being 68.8%(11 /16).All 17 patients underwent ESD,14 (82.4%,14 /17)of which were found to have EGC.Postoperative pathology confirmed low grade intraepithelial neoplasia in 3 cases,high grade intraepithelial neoplasia in 7,intramucosal carcino-ma in 4,submucosal carcinoma in 3 patients.Conclusion EUS plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of GCP.And GCP is highly correlated with EGC,which should be managed in time.
