Objective To compare the diagnostic accuracy of intraductal ultrasonography(IDUS) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography(ERC) on extrahepatic bile duct stones. Methods 30 patients with suspected extrahepatic bile duct stones by B Ultrasonography, CT,or MRI,were allocated into this study. ERC was performed first by the use of Fujinon duodenal endoscopy ( ED-410XT, ED-410XU) and then followed IDUS by inserting the Fujinon miniprobe (PL2220-15 or PL2226-15) through endoscopic working channel to detect extrahepatic bile duct, finally the substance in extrahepatic bile duct was proved by endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST)and stone extraction. Results Among 30 cases, the diagnoses by ERC were stone 26 cases,floccule 1 cases and misinterpreted 2 cases so the accuracy and sensitivity of ERC were 26/30(86.7%) and 26/28(92.9%)respectively. For IDUS, the diagnoses were totally in accordance with the results of EST and stone extraction.So the accuracy and sensitivity of IDUS in the diagnosis of extrahepatic bile duct stones were 30/30(100%) and 28/28(100%) respectively. Conclusion (1) IDUS was superior to ERC in the diagnosis extrahepatic bile duct stones. (2) IDUS can compensate the misinterpretation of ERC on extrahepatic bile duct stones.

Objective To investigate the role of endoscopic color Doppler ultrasonography (ECDUS) in the preoperative localization of insulinomas. Methods Seven patientsd woman) with biochemically diagnosed insulinoma underwent abdominal US, spiral CT and ECDUS in an attempt to precisely localize the tumor before surgery. Surgical and pathological results were considered as the definite localization of tumor. The role of ECDUS in the preoperative localization of insulinomas was compared with that of abdominal US and spiral CT. Results Ten tumors were detected by surgery and pathology. The sensitivity of ECDUS in identifying insulinomas was 8/10 compared with 1/10 for CT and 0/10 for abdominal US. Two tumors not detected by ECDUS had a size below 0. 5cm. Conclusions ECDUS is superior to spiral CT or abdominal US, and should be served as the first choice in the detection of pancreatic isulinomas. ECDUS identification depends on the size of the tumor and 'is hard to detect the tumors smaller than 0. 5cm.

Three-parent test tube baby technology is important to solve the mitochondrial genetic disease.Once available,it raises greatly ethical controversy such as breaking traditional family values,hitting the religious belief,existing unknown risks,correctly handling the failed embryo,as well as the influence on the social status of the babies.Regarding these controversy,we can discuss it from several aspects.Because the development of ethics is behind the progress of science and technology,we should affirm the value of three-parent test tube baby technology and balance the development of science and technology with respecting the religious beliefs.Strict supervision system and standard application system reflect our respect for life.Incomprehension to the unknown things should become the motivation of our inquiry.We should face up to our fear of three-parent test tube baby technology,and thus to strengthen research and deepen understanding.Based on the above argument,this paper puts forward the ethical principles that should be followed in the development of three-parent test tube baby technology,namely respect,benefit,no harm and justice.

Objective:To investigate if in vitro chemotherapy can induce the EMT progress in gastric cancer (GC) cells. Method:The GC cell line, SGC7901, was treated using 5-Fu at a concentration of 30 μg/mL. The residual cells after four cycles of 5-Fu therapy were named as SGC7901/Fu. The morphological changes and malignant biological features, including the invasiveness and clone formation ability and the characteristics of cancer stem cell and biomarkers of EMT between SGC7901 and SGC7901/Fu, were compared. Results:The SGC7901/Fu cells displayed a mesenchymal appearance, decreased the expression of epithelial markers, and increased the expression of mesenchymal markers. The 50% inhibitory concentrations in the SGC7901/Fu and SGC7901 cells were (43.8 ± 7.2) and (64.6 ± 5.5)μg/mL, respectively. The number of cells that migrated through the basement-membrane of the Transwell chamber was 51.4 ± 8.7 and 93.2 ± 9.5, respectively. The rate of clone formation was 5.2%± 1.0%and 13.2%± 2.2%, respectively. The portions of the CD44+/CD24-cells were 4.13%±0.81%and 7.97%±0.50%, respectively. All differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion:The residual GC cells underwent EMT progress after 5-Fu treatment, with increased chemoresistance and ability of invasiveness and acquired the property of cancer stem cells.

Objective To explore the effects of Kangshuaiyizhi capsule on ChAT/AchE and NE, DA and 5-HT levels in the brain tissue of aging model rats, and explore its effect of protecting cerebral function. Methods Totally 72 rats were randomly divided into normal group and model group. The subacutely aging model rats were made by injecting D-gal (0.125 g/kg) into abdominal cavity continually, then aging rats were divided by random number table into model group, Naofukang group and Kangshuaiyizhi high-, low-dose group. After intervented with correspongding drugs for 60 days, activity of ChAT and AchE, cerebral cortex NE, DA, and 5-HT levels were detected. Results Activity of AchE was much higher (P<0.05), but level of ChAT, NE, DA and 5-HT in model group were significantly downregulated compared with normal group (P<0.05). After treated with Kangshuaiyizhi capsule, activity of AchE was downregulated, ChAT, NE, DA and 5-HT levels were significantly upregulated (P <0.01, P <0.05). Conclusion Kangshuaiyizhi capsule can regulate cholinergic and monoamine neurotransmitter levels in the brain tissue of aging model rats, and play a very important role in protecting cerebral function.
