Objective To review the diagnosis and treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis. Methods The clinical data from October 1991 to May 2009 of eight cases of squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The symptoms of the patients were hematuria (eight cases), pain (seven cases) and abdominal mass (one case). All patients underwent B-ultrasound and IVU examination and four cases underwent CT scan. Three cases were diagnosed as having a tumor before surgery. Five cases were diagnosed as renal calculus, two of the five cases were diagnosed by intraoperative frozen section. Radical nephroureterectomy were performed in four cases, nephrectomy in three cases and palliative resection in one case. Results Histological classification revealed that six cases were moderately differentiated, one case was well differentiated and one case was poorly differentiated. Two cases had stage pT1/pT2 and six cases had stage pT3/pT4. 2 cases had regional lymph nodes metastasis. Seven cases were followed-up. All patients died of tumor recurrence or metastasis. The median tumor specific survive time was six months (range from two months to 42 months). Conclusions Squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis is often occurs concurrently with urolithiasis which could lead to difficulty in diagnose before operation. As the most of the patients were diagnosed with advanced stage disease, squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis tended to early recurrence and metastasis and the prognosis was very poor.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between early postoperative recovery and frailty after digestive endoscopy-assisted minimally invasive surgery under intravenous anesthesia in the elderly.Methods:This study retrospectively selected hospitalized patients, aged ≥65 yr, scheduled for elective gastrointestinal endoscopic treatment.Early postoperative recovery time was defined as the period from the end of propofol administration to the achievement of a modified Aldrete score of 9.All the patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether the early recovery time after operation was less than 75%: normal early postoperative recovery time group and delayed early postoperative recovery time group.Frailty was assessed using the frailty phenotype (FP score 0-5), and the patient was diagnosed as frail (FP ≥3) or non-frail (FP 0-2). The age, sex, height, weight, smoking history, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status classification, type of operation, and baseline mean arterial pressure and heart rate were recorded.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for delayed early postoperative recovery time after minimally invasive digestive endoscopy under intravenous anesthesia in elderly patients.Results:A total of 214 patients were enrolled and divided into normal early postoperative recovery time group ( n=169) and delayed early postoperative recovery time group ( n=45). There were significant differences in frailty, age, drinking history of more than 10 yr, preoperative ASA Physical Status classification and propofol administration time between delayed early postoperative recovery time group and normal early postoperative recovery time group ( P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis indicated that frailty, age, ASA Physical Status classification Ⅲ, and propofol administration time were independent risk factors for the occurrence of delayed early postoperative recovery ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Frailty, age, ASA Physical Status classification Ⅲ and propofol administration time are independent risk factors for delayed early postoperative recovery time following digestive endoscopy-assisted minimally invasive surgery under intravenous anesthesia in elderly patients.

Objective RY-15, a specific agonist of Sphingosine 1-phosphate Receptor 3, was synthesized for investigating the function and mechanism of S1PR3 in bacterial clearance. Methods Measure the ability of RY-15 with FITC to enter the THP-1 cell after coculture for 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min through confocal microscopy. The function of GY-5 and RY-15 in bacterial clearance was observed by gentamicin protection test. The phosphorylation level of ERK and p-ERK in THP-1 cell was detected by Western Blot after GY-5 and RY-15 stimulation for different times. Results According to confocal microscopy, RY-15 started to enter the THP-1 cell after stimulating for 10 min and the effect of entering cell was very obvious after stimulating for 30 min. Compared to GY-5 group, live bacteria in the macrophage were largely decreased in the RY-15 group( P<0.05). Conmpared to GY-5 group, the p-ERK level raised largely at different poins. Conclusions RY-15, a specific agonist of Sphingosine 1-phosphate Receptor 3, can promote bacterial clearance through entering cell and the phosphorylation level of ERK is a possible mechanism.
