Purpose:To assess the value of the sentinel lymph node by lymphoscintigraphy and gamma detector probe in early cervical cancer.Methods:22 patients with operable invasive early cervical cancer and clinically proven negative pelvic lymph nodes were included in the study. The 99m Tc-dextran ( 99m Tc-DX) of 74 MBq(2 mCi) was injected into the cervix at 2? and 10?. Lymphoscintigraphy and gamma probe detectors were used to detect the SLN. Results:The SLN was identified in 17 of the 22 patients. The sensitivity and the specificity of the SLN detection to predict the metastasis of the pelvic lymph node was 100% and 100% respectively. Conclusions:Identification of sentinel nodes using radionuclide is feasible and possible in women with early cervical cancer.

Objective To explore a best operative method in order to improve operative manipulated skill of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation(SPKT),a model of SPKT was established in dogs.Methods 12 dogs of SPKT were performed in animal model.A renoportal end-to-end anastomoses between the renal and the spleen vein.Only two vascular end-to-side anastomoses between the donor portal vein and recipient ilio-vein,and between the donor celiac arteries and recipient abdominal aorta were constructed.Pancrease was placed in the right iliac fossa and kidney in the left.Pancreatic exocretion goes through bladder drainage.Results Combined resection was successfully performed in 6 dogs and the other underwent simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation.Satisfactory result was obtained in 5 survival dog for a mean of (1 5?0 8)days,although 1 dog died from hypopiesis.Conclusions The model is practically feasible and might be used in studying the problems involved in SPKT,which is effective for the treatment of end-stage diabetic nephropathy.

In the present study, the results were as follows: ( 1 ) Thyro-tropin-releasing hormone ( TRH ) injected into the intracerebroven-tricle increased intragastric pressure & evoked the phasic contraction of stomach significantly. ( 2 ) The increased response was decreased by bilateral destruction of dorsa. motor nucleus of vagus. ( 3 ) The increase was abolished completely by either vagotomy or atropine.The aforementioned results indicate that the action of dors. motor nucleus of vagus is partly involved the central mechanism of gastric movement induced by TRH & the vagal is the efferent pathway.

Angiogenesis is an important link of tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. The tumor angiogenesis targeting strategy for the treatment of cancer has become a hot spot in oncology research currently. Signal transduction of tumor angiogenesis is a complex, multi-factor, multi-way and cross network system. Treatment for a single target is often not sufficient to halt or reverse its highly heterogeneous structure and abnormal shape. Therefore, it will be an important research direction that the combination of different pathways and mechanisms of medications effect on signaling pathway in tumor angiogenesis by multi-target. A number of experimental studies found that qi-reinforcing and blood-activating medication can play a regulating role of multiple targets, multiple pathways in tumor angiogenesis. It had different effect on tumor angiogenesis against tumor invasion and metastasis.Qi-reinforcing and blood-activating medication will have broad prospects in the treatment of tumor and angiogenesis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of sevoflurane anesthesia on aquaporin-9 (AQP-9) expression in brain tissue after focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.MethodsSeventy-five male SD rats weighing 230-270 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n =25 each):group sham operation (group S) ; group I/R and group sevoflurane anesthesia (group SE).All the animals were tracheally intubated under 2.0％ sevoflurane and mechanically ventilated.Anesthesia was maintained with fentanyl infusion at 25 μg· kg-1 · h-1 after a bolus of fentanyl 10 μg/kg and inhalation of 65％ N2O in O2 in groups S and I/R and with inhalation of 2％ sevoflurane in 35％ O2 in group SE.Focal cerebral ischemin was induced by occlusion of middle cerebral artery for 2 h using a nylon thread with rounded tip which was inserted into the right internal carotid artery and advanced cranially until resistance was met.The neurologic function was assessed and scored (0=no deficit,4 =unable to move,unconscious) and brain edema rate (volume of ischemic hemisphere-volume of contralateral hemisphere ÷volume of contralateral hemisphere × 100％ ) and expression of AQP-9 were determined at 6 h,1,2,3 and 5 d of reperfusion.ResultsFocal cerebral I/R significantly increased neurologic deficit scores,brain edema rate and AQP-9 expression in brain tissue in group I/R as compared with group S.Sevoflurane anesthesia significantly attenuated the I/R-induced increase in neurologic deficit scores and brain edema rate and further increased I/R-induced increase in AQP-9 expression in brain tissue.ConclusionSevoflurane anesthesia can reduce focal cerebral I/R injury by up-regulating the expression of AQP-9 in brain tissue.
