AIM: To discuss the clinical applications of methods to localize nasal cut ends and the effects of Z-plasty in the surgeries for lower eyelid longitudinal laceration combined with lower lacrimal canaliculi disruption.
METHODS: From September, 2010 to October, 2013, a total of 37 patients ( 37 eyes ) with lower eyelid longitudinal laceration combined with lower lacrimal canaliculi disruption were operated for anastomosis of lacrimal canaliculi disruption and suture of lower eyelid longitudinal. Different methods to search for the nasal cut ends of lacerated lacrimal canaliculi, such as “under a microscope directly”, “guided by probing needle” and“pigtail curved probe”. Then, to repair lower eyelid longitudinal laceration with Z-plasty transposition flaps. Follow up was 3mo~2a after operation.

Armillariella tabescens EJLY2098 was induced to produce ?-mannanase with konjac fine flour (Amorphopallus rivieri) as single carbon source. This induced enzyme was then purified using DEAE ion exchange chromatography and named atMAN47. Zymologic analysis showed that the molecular weight of this ?-mannanase was approximately 47 kD. The enzyme was stable when pH ranged from 5.0 to 6.5 and could be activated by Na+ and Ba2+. With an optimal temperature of 50?C. Action mode analysis of TLC revealed that the enzyme belonged to the endo-?-mannanase family. Being a meta-acid endo-?-mannanase, it was suitable to be applied to feed industry with a promising future as an enzyme preparation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of computed tomography?guided visceral nerve plexus ethanol neurolysis through post?curs of diaphragm approach in the treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer pain using,and study the safety and life quality improvement of patients . Methods A total of 58 patients suffered from pancreatic cancer pain,who were treated in the department of pain medicine of the First Hospital of China Medical University from October 2013 to December 2014,were recruited for the study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the willing of the patients and their families,group A(32 cases)was treated with Visceral Nerve Plexus ethanol Neurolysis,while group B(26 cas?es)was treated with oral opioid drugs. The analgesic effect,changes in the amount of opioid drugs,changes in the PSQI scores and the improvement of quality of life were evaluated before treatment and 1 day(T1),15 days(T15),30 days(T30),60 days(T60)after treatment. Record the adverse reactions in the course of treatment. Results All the patients of group A successfully received visceral nerve plexus ethanol neurolysis,the VAS scores,Karnofsky scores,and PSQI scores of all the observed time points(after the operation)were statistically different compared to those before treatment and group B. Statistically difference was also observed in quality of life between two groups(P<0.05). The amount of opioid drugs of group B was statistically increased than that of group A(P<0.01).The most common side effects in Group A were postural hypotension(6 cases),diar?rhea(2 cases),and intercostal neuralgia,while nausea(20 cases),constipation(11 cases)and dizziness(8 cases)were seen in the Group B. Con?clusion Visceral nerve plexus ethanol neurolysis through post?curs of diaphragm approach by the guide of CT is effective and safe for the patients with pancreatic cancer pain,and the complications were totally acceptable.

This study was aimed to investigate on effect of As(2)O(3) on expressions of COX-2, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in SGC7901 and K562 cells. SGC7901 and K562 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium and were inoculated in culture medium with different concentrations of As(2)O(3) and at different times. Expressions of COX-2, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in SGC7901 and K562 cells were measured by using Western blot, while the levels of COX-2 mRNA and MMP-2 mRNA were measured with fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR. The results showed that the expression of COX-2, MMP-2 and MMP-9 decreased in dose- and time-dependent manners after treating with As(2)O(3). The levels of COX-2 mRNA and MMP-2 mRNA reduced in groups treated with As(2)O(3). In conclusion, As(2)O(3) inhibits expressions of COX-2, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in K562 and SGC7901 cells, suggesting that As(2)O(3) inhibits tumor development through its effect on angiogenesis involved in solid and hematologic malignancies.
