AIM: To study the protective effect of medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe on endothelial cells which were damaged by H2O2. METHODS: The effects of medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe on cell viability, concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA), NO, endothelin-1 (ET-1) and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were determined for human umbilical vein endothelial cells (ECV304) damaged by H2O2. RESULTS: The medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe significantly improved the structural change of ECV304 cells damaged by H2O2, suppressed the production of MDA and the content of ET-1, increased activity of SOD and the rate of animate cells, and promoted secretion of NO. CONCLUSION: The medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe can resist the injury of ECV304 caused by H2O2, playing a role in the protective effect.

Objective To elxplore the effect of combined with tamsulosin and trazodone medication in treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis(CAP,type Ⅲ). Methods118 cases of CAP were treated with oral levofioxacin + tamsulosin + trazodone for 4 ～ 12 weeks.Statistical analysis was conducted for total scores(including pain score,urinary symptom score and life quality score)according to NIH-CPSI. ResultsThe symptoms were improved in most cases.Before and after treatment,the total scores were of all cases(26.81 ± 3.69)VS(13.41 ± 5.31),the pain score was(12.81 ±2.52)VS(8.91 ±3.51),the urinary symptom score was(5.76 ± 1.89)VS(2.79 ± 1.38),and the life quality score was(9.12 ±3.21)VS(4.28 ±2.46).There was statistically significant difference between them (all P＜0.01). ConclusionLevofloxacin combined with tamsulosin and trazodone medication in treatment of CAP could produce obvious effects.

Objective To study dynamic response of serum lipid after fat meal in old persons with fasting TG≤1 70 mmol/L. Methods Using fat meal of 63 9 g/m 2 body surface area, TG, TC, HDL C and LDL C of both elderly and control groups in fasting status and 2, 4, 6 and 8 h after fat meal were determined. Results The TG value after fat meal was significantly higher than that in fasting status( P 0.05). Conclusions The expurgation of triglycerides is delayed in elderly people, meaning that the capacity for fat removal is decreased, and it is possibly the main cause of TG increase in the elderly.

[Objective] To investigate the curative effect of the red rice in treating the experimental fractures in the rats.[Methods] 64 Wistar rats suffered with single fracture in the forearm were randomized into two groups,one red rice group and the other normal saline control group.On the twenty-first day and 42 day after operation,the qualitation and morphometric observation of the bone tissue were performed.[Results] After the treatment of the red rice,the bony union of the fractured bone in the rats was obviously accelerated.The morphometric index of the bony tissue was higher than the control group with the statistical significance.The remodeling of the bony callus,the emergence of the lamellar bone and recanalization of the medullary cavity could all be enhanced by the use of the red rice.The mineralized bony callus area,the osteoblast index and the matrical calcification were obviously higher than those of the control group.[Conclusions] The growth of bony callus,the index of the osteoblast,the metrical calcification and the remodeling of the bony callus could all be enhanced by the red rice and therefore the bone union could be accelerated.

Objective To summarize the management experience for difficult access during rigid transurethral ureteroscopy.Methods Rigid transurethral ureteroscopy was conducted in 640 patients with ureteral stones from January 1995 to November 2004.Difficult ureteroscope access was encountered in 72 patients and overcame by adjusting the pressure of hydraulic irrigation,changing the position of patient,dilating the ureter,or performing the percutaneous nephrostomy.Results Of the 72 patients with difficult retrograde access,successful ureteroscopy was achieved in 54 patients and conversions to open ureterolithotomy were required in 18 patients.Intraoperative complications included partial mucosal laceration in 10 patients and ureteral perforation in 6 patients.Follow-up examinations with intravenous pyelography for 13~36 months(mean,16 months) in 56 patients revealed patent ureter.Conclusions The key to successful retrograde access of rigid ureteroscope lies in the acquaintance with normal and pathologic anatomy and physiology of the ureter and urologist's operative skills and experience.
