Objective To establish P2 or P0 peptide-induced experimental autoimmune neuritis (EAN)in the Lewis rats and to explore the optimal type and doses of antigen inoculated to induce EAN and the associated cell-mediated immune mechanisms.Methods Lewis rats were classified into EAN and control groups.The EAN rats were immunized by injection into both hind footpads of inoculums containing 100 or 200 ?g of P2_(57-81)peptide or 200?g of P0_(180-199)peptide and Freund's complete adjuvant(FCA),and the control rats were immunized with FCA only.Clinical scores were compared when they were at peak time of paralysis.Lymphocyte proliferation assay,the ratio of CD_4~+ T cells to lymphatic monocytes and percentage of CD_4~+ CD_(25)~+ T cells to CD_4~+ T cells obtained on day 14 post-immunization were examined.Histopathalogical assessment of sciatic nerves was made.Results Peak clinical scores of P2_(57-81)200 ?g group were dramatically higher than those in P2_(57-81)100 ?g group and P0_(180-199)200 ?g group(both P

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of Sharp-van der Heijde score (SHS)in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods Clinical and X-ray of hands data in 200 patients with RA met the ACR criteria were collected in this study.Clinical DAS28,anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (aCCP)and imaging SHS were used to evaluate the activity of RA quantitatively before and after treatment.Results A moderate correlation existed between SHS and DAS28 (r s =0.61,P =0.00),but there was no significant cor-relation either between SHS and aCCP (r s = -0.1 5,P =0.03)or between aCCP and DAS28 (r s =0.14,P =0.05 ).Significant differences before and after treatment was existed in SHS (t=24.27,P =0.00)and DAS28 (t=1 5.98,P =0.00)respectively.And there was a moderate correlation between the difference in SHS before and after treatment and aCCP (r s =0.66,P =0.00).Conclu-sion The SHS,DAS28 and the aCCP in RA are closely related.Combination of three methods will help to develop the clinical pro-grams,evaluate the efficacy and prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of perimembranous ventricular septal defects (PmVSD) closure solely by femoral vein approach under transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance.Methods:From January 1,2014 to May 31,2016,26 patients with PmVSD in Second Xiangya Hospital were selected,with age at 3.2-6.0 (4.3±0.7) years old and body weight at 15.0-19.5 (16.7±1.4) kg.The diameter of VSD was 3.5-4.8 (4.1±0.3) mm.All patients were treated by percutaneous PmVSD closure solely by femoral vein approach under TEE guidance.The effect of the procedure was evaluated by TEE and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE).The clinical follow-up study was conducted by TTE at 1,3,6 and 12 month (s) after the procedure.Results:Twenty cases were successfully treated with percutaneous PmVSD closure solely by femoral vein approach under TEE guidance,and the success rate was 76.9％.Six patients were converted to perventricular closure under TEE guidance because the guide wire in two cases or catheter in other cases could not pass through PmVSD.The diameter of symmetrical VSD occluder was 6.0-7.0 (6.2±0.4) mm.The procedural time was 12.0-64.0 (26.8±6.3) min.The residence time at ICU was 1.8-2.4 (26.8±6.3) h.The in-hospital time was 4.0-5.0 (4.4±0.5) d.There were 3 patients with immediate post-operative trivial residual shunt and incomplete right bundle branch block (IRBBB).All patients survived with no peripheral vascular injury or complications such as tricuspid regurgitation,pericardial tamponade and pulmonary infection.The residual shunt disappeared in 3 patients and IRBBB became normal rhythm in 3 patients at 1 month follow-up time point.No patients suffered from occluder malposition,residual shunt,pericardial effusion,arrhythmia (atrio-ventricular block),aortic valve regurgitation and tricuspid regurgitation.Conclusion:TEE-guided percutaneous PmVSD closureby femoral vein approach is safe and effective.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and safety of device closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)using only venous access under echocardiography guidance alone.Methods:A total of 102 consecutive pediatric patients underwent transcatheter PDA closure without arterial access,under the guidance of only echocardiography.The patients were followed up by clinical examination,electrocardiogram,and echocardiogram at 1,3,6 12,and 24 months.Results:Transvenous PDA closure under echocardiographic guidance was successful in 99 (97.1％)patients.There were no acute procedural complications or severe adverse events.The duration ranged from 10 to 65 minutes (median,21 minutes).Immediate complete closure of PDA was achieved in 87 patients (87.9％),and 100％ of the patients were completely closed after 24 h.There were no severe adverse events in the period of 1-24 months (median,12 months) follow up.Conclusion:Transvenous PDA closure without fluoroscopy avoids radiation exposure,contrast agent usage and potential arterial complications.It can be used as an alternative procedure,especially for children.

Objective: To summarize our clinical experience and management of an anomalous proximal bile duct joining the cystic duct in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 8 patients who had an anomalous right anterior bile duct joining the cystic duct who were treated at the Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2003 to January 2019. Results: All the 8 patients were diagnosed to have gallstones cholecystitis on preoperative CT, MRI and abdominal ultrasound. There were no suggestions of an anomalous bile duct. A total of 6 patients underwent reoperation after LC due to abdominal pain and biliary peritonitis. These 6 patients were treated with drainage and T-tube insertion. In the other 2 patients, the anomalous bile duct opening which joined the cystic duct were detected during LC. There was one patient converted to open laparotomy with preservation of the cystic duct and underwent common bile duct T-tube drainage. The other patients continued with laparoscopic surgery. The cystic duct was partially resected with removal of gallbladder, followed by common bile duct drainage. The average follow-up period was 3.4 years and the results were satisfactory. Conclusions Biliary duct anomaly is the main cause of iatrogenic proximal bile duct injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It is not uncommon to have the anomaly of insertion of right anterior segmental bile duct to the cystic duct. To avoid iatrogenic biliary tract injury, careful preoperative study of X-ray films, accurate identification of the intraoperative gallbladder triangle anatomical structures. Strict adherence to carry out the three-word procedure of " discrimination, cut, identify" will help to reduce the incidence of biliary tract complications in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Objective:To investigate the expression of low density lipoprotein receptor associated protein 8 (LRP8) in colorectal cancer and its correlation with clinicopathological features.Methods:The surgical specimens of colorectal cancer patients hospitalized in Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 1, 2020 to September 1, 2020 (without adjuvant treatment measures such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy) and 45 corresponding adjacent normal tissues were collected. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of LRP8 in colorectal cancer and paracancer normal tissues. The relationship between LRP8 and clinical characteristics of colorectal cancer patients was determined by univariate logistic regression analysis and Spearman correlation analysis.Results:Immunohistochemical results showed that LRP8 protein was highly expressed in 37 cases (82.22%) and low expressed in 8 cases (17.78%) of 45 colorectal cancer tissues. LRP8 protein was highly expressed in 17 cases (37.78%) and low expressed in 28 cases (62.22%). The expression of LRP8 protein in colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues was significantly different ( P<0.05). Chi-square test showed that LRP8 protein expression was correlated with colorectal cancer stage, perineural invasion, vascular invasion, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) (all P<0.05), but not correlated with gender, age, tumor differentiation, Ki67, CA199, lymph node metastasis, triglyceride, total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein (all P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage, vascular invasion, nerve invasion, serum CEA and LDL levels were the influencing factors of LRP8 overexpression in patients with colorectal cancer (all P<0.05). There was a weak negative correlation between ApoB and tumor stage ( rs=-0.382), lymph node metastasis ( rs=-0.316) and vascular invasion ( rs=-0.311) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Our results indicate that there is a higher expression of LRP8 in colorectal cancer tissues. The expression of LRP8 correlates with the staging of the colorectal cancer, neurovascular invasion, CEA, and low density lipoprotein. Patients with high expression of LRP8 have worse tumor stage and are more likely to have concurrent neurologic and vascular invasion.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of thulium laser enucleation of the prostate-pre-transection urethral mucosa at the apex of prostate and traditional three lobe enucleation of the prostate for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia patients.Methods:The data of 270 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia who were underwent ThuLEP-PAM or ThuLEP in our hospital from May 2020 to September 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the operation methods, the patients were divided into two groups: ThuLEP-PAM group (120 cases) and ThuLEP group (150 cases). There was no significant difference comparing the age [(69.8±7.7) years vs. (71.4±8.0) years], prostate volume [55.5(41.0, 71.0)ml vs. 58.5(45.0, 80.3)ml], the serum PSA [3.0(1.8, 4.6) ng/ml vs. 3.3(2.1, 5.5)ng/ml], international prostate symptom scores (IPSS) [22(17, 28) vs. 22(17, 27)], the quality of life score (QOL)[5(4, 6) vs. 5(4, 6)], the maximum urinary flow rate (Q max)[5.6(3.5, 7.3)ml/s vs. 5.5(4.0, 7.1)ml/s], the residual urine volume [ 31(0, 81)ml vs. 31(0, 102)ml] between the ThuLEP-PAM group and the ThuLEP group. No significant difference was found between the two groups( P>0.05). In the ThuLEP-PAM group, the external sphincter ring was located firstly, and urethral mucosa at the apex of prostate was circumferentially incised at 5 mm proximal of the sphincter ring by laser. Then the urethral mucosa was incised at the left sulcus beside the verumontanum and the prostate surgical capsule gap was exposed. After the middle lobe was removed, the left and right lobes were removed along the urethral mucosa pre-incision line at the prostatic apex. The ThuLEP group was enucleated by traditional three lobes enucleation. Perioperative indicators and postoperative complications during short-term follow-up were compared between the two groups. Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and the symptoms of the lower urinary tract were significantly improved. Comparison the perioperative factors between ThuLEP-PAM group and ThuLEP group included the following: operative time 90(70, 103)min vs. 83(61, 102)min; enucleated tissue weight 27.0(19.3, 36.5)g vs. 27.0(19.0, 39.0)g; decrease of the hemoglobin 9.9(7.4, 12.4)g/L vs. 9.5(7.1, 12.7)g/L; catheterization time 3.5(3.0, 4.0)d vs. 3.5(3.0, 5.0)d; hospital stay 6.0(5.0, 6.0)d vs. 5.0(4.0, 6.0)d. NO significant difference in these parameters was found between the two groups( P>0.05). There also was no significant difference in PSA[1.1(0.8, 1.5) ng/ml vs. 1.0(0.8, 1.6) ng/ml], IPSS score [5(4, 6) min vs. 5(4, 6)min], QOL score [2(1, 3) vs. 2(1, 3)], Q max [20.9(17.5, 22.5) ml/s vs. 20.4(17.8, 22.7) ml/s] and PVR [0 ml vs. 0(0, 6)ml] between the two groups ( P>0.05) after more than 3 months of follow-up. The incidence of incontinence for ThuLEP-PAM(2 cases)were lower than that for ThuLEP(11 cases)( P=0.031), but there was no significant between the two groups in other complications such as blood transfusion, haematuria, post-voidalurinary retention and urethral stricture. Conclusions:ThuLEP-PAM and ThuLEP have similar effect on the improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, both of which have good efficacy and high safety. The biggest advantage of ThuLEP-PAM over ThuLEP is that it reduces the incidence of early postoperative stress urinary incontinence.

Objective:To investigate the clinical utility of 68Ga-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT in the detection of primary and metastatic gastric signet-ring cell carcinoma (GSRCC) and compared the results with those of 18F-FDG PET/CT. Methods:A total of 21 patients (10 males, 11 females, average age 52 years) with primary and metastatic GSRCC who underwent 68Ga-FAPI and 18F-FDG PET/CT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from June 2020 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Pathological results of surgery and (or) biopsy were used as the " gold standard" for final diagnosis. In cases whose surgery or tissue biopsies were not available, clinical and radiographic follow-up results were used as the reference standards. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the SUV max of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI. McNemar χ2 test was used to compare the detection rate between 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT. Results:68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed higher SUV max than 18F-FDG in primary tumors (5.3(2.4, 15.7) vs 2.4(1.8, 2.5); z=2.31, P=0.021), local recurrences (7.8(6.0, 8.9) vs 2.4(1.9, 3.4); z=2.20, P=0.028), lymph nodes metastases (7.7(4.5, 12.2) vs 2.4(1.9, 3.6); z=6.01, P<0.001) and bone/visceral metastases (6.7(5.3, 11.1) vs 2.4(2.0, 3.4); z=11.36, P<0.001). Regarding diagnostic accuracy, 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed higher sensitivities than 18F-FDG for primary tumors (7/9 vs 2/9; χ2=3.20, P=0.063) and local recurrences (7/7 vs 2/7; χ2=3.20, P=0.063). It also demonstrated higher lesion detection rates than 18F-FDG for suspicious lymph node metastases (86%(65/76) vs 32%(24/76); χ2=31.37, P<0.001) and bone/visceral metastases (99%(184/185) vs 39%(73/185); χ2=107.08, P<0.001). Conclusions:68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed higher tumor uptake and lesion detection rate than 18F-FDG in the primary and metastatic GSRCC. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT demonstrates good diagnostic performance for tumor detection, staging, and restaging of GSRCC, which is helpful to further guide clinical treatment strategy.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of holographic image navigation in urological laparoscopic and robotic surgery.Methods The data of patients were reviewed retrospectively for whom accepted holographic image navigation laparoscopic and robotic surgery from Jan.2019 to Dec.2019 in Beijing United Family Hospital and other 18 medical centers,including 78 cases of renal tumor,2 cases of bladder cancer,2 cases of adrenal gland tumor,1 cases of renal cyst,1 case of prostate cancer,1 case of sweat gland carcinoma with lymph node metastasis,1 case of pelvic metastasis after radical cystectomy.All the patients underwent operations.In the laparoscopic surgery group,there were 27 cases of partial nephrectomy,1 case of radical prostatectomy,2 cases of radical cystectomy and 2 cases of adrenalectomy.In the da Vinci robotic surgery group of 54 cases,there were 51 cases of partial nephrectomy,1 case of retroperitoneal lymph node dissection,1 case of retroperitoneal bilateral renal cyst deroofing and 1 case of resection of pelvic metastasis.There were 41 partial nephrectomy patients with available clinical data for statistic,with a median age of 53.5 years (range 24-76),including 26 males and 15 females.The median R.E.N.A.L score was 7.8 (range 4-11).Before the operation,the engineers established the holographic image based on the contrast CT images and reports.The surgeon applied the holographic image for preoperative planning.During the operation,the navigation was achieved by real time fusing holographic images with the laparoscopic surgery images in the screen.Results All the procedures had been complete uneventfully.The holographic images helped surgeon in understanding the visual three-dimension structure and relation of vessels supplying tumor or resection tissue,lymph nodes and nerves.By manipulating the holographic images extracorporeally,the fused image guide surgeons about location vessel,lymph node and other important structure and then facilitate the delicate dissection.For the 41 cases with available clinical data including 23 cases of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy and 18 cases of laparoscopic nephrectomy,the median operation time was 140 (range 50-225) min,the median warm ischemia time was 23 (range 14-60) min,the median blood loss was 80(range 5-1 200) ml.In the robotic surgery group,the median operation time was 140 (range 50-215)min,the median warm i schemia time was 21 (range 17-40)min,the median blood loss was 150(range 30-1 200)ml.In the laparoscopic surgery group,the median operation time was 160(range 80-225)min,the median warm ischemia time was 25 (range 14-60)min,the median blood loss was 50 (range 5-1 200) ml.All the patients had no adjacent organ injury during operation.There were 2 cases with Clavien Ⅱ complications.One required transfusion and the other one suffered hematoma post-operation.However,the tumors were located in the renal hilus for these 2 cases and the R.E.N.A.L scores were both 11.Conclusions Holographic image navigation can help location and recognize important anatomic structures during the surgical procedures..This technique will reduce the tissue injury,decrease the complications and improve the success rate of surgery.
