Objective:To prove that haemodialysis patients sera medium can induce angiogenesis by oxidative stress. Method: Eleven haemodialysis patients were administered 400mg/d of vitamin E for 6 weeks per os (treated group),and another eleven haemodialysis patients were treated regularly(non-treated group).HUVEC were cultured in 10% treated patients sera medium and 10% non-treated patients sera medium respectively. The plasma level of MDA was detected by TBA method. Angiogenesis were observed under inverted microscope,cell proliferation examinded by MTT,cell migration measured in transwell,and ROS investigated by colorimetry. Results:In treated group,the plasma level of MDA was lower after treatment.There were tube formation(average area as 1 438?m2?112?m2) and more cell proliferation and migration after cells were cultured in non- treated haemodialysis patients sera.The production of ROS was higher than that of cells exposed to treated patients sera medium.Conclusion:Haemodialysis patients sera medium can induce angiogenesis and oxidative stress is the important mechanism.

Objective To evaluate the impact of obesity and spleen length on laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 121 patients with portal hypertension who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization in our hospital.Using BMI,these patients were classified as the obesity and the non-obesity groups.Using length of the spleen,the patients were divided into two subgroups:spleen AC diameter ＞ 20 cm and spleen AC diameter ≤20 cm.Results (1) For the Obesity group,the operation time,the rate of conversion to open operation and the complication rate after operation were higher than the non-obesity group [(184.0 ± 49.0) min vs (142.0 ±39.0) min,26.1％ vs 8.0％,26.1％ vs 6.7％,respectively,P＜0.05].However,the differences were not significant for mean blood loss,intraperitoneal drainage and complication rate after operation.For patients with massive splenomegaly,the obesity group had higher rates of conversion into open operation and complication (42.9％ vs 11.7％,33.3％ vs 8.8％,respectively,P ＜0.05).For patients with non-massive splenomegaly,the differences were not significant between the obesity and non-obesity groups (P ＞ 0.05).(2) For obesity patients,the spleen AC diameter ＞ 20 cm group had a longer operation time and a higher rate of conversion to open operation [(224.0 ± 42.0) min vs (152.0 ± 44.0) min,42.9％ vs 12.0％,respectively,P ＜ 0.05].The length of spleen had no effect on the operation and its complication (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Obesity extended the operation time and increased the rates of conversion to open operation and complication after operation.The spleen length had a major impact on the rates of conversion to open operation and complication after operation for the groups of obesity patients.

Along with the development of modern communication technology,remote patient monitoring,especially remote ECG monitoring is widely applied in medical field.The history of remote ECG monitoring is introduced,and then a Remote ECG Monitoring System which has been applied in our hospital is mainly present,including the system structure,the design of ECG acquisition and the design of acquisition station.

Objective To analysis the clinical radiologic features of intrapulmonary lymph nodes,and to improve the diagnostic rate of intrapulmonary lymph nodes.Methods From May 2008 to September 2011,16 cases of pulmonary nodules were proved pathologically as intrapulmonary lymph nodes,including 9 males and 7 females,with an average age of 58.2 years (39-73 years).All patients accepted chest X-ray and HR CT scan prior to operation,identified of 11 solitary nodules,3 multiple nodules,and other 2 cases of multiple nodules with synchronous ipsilateral lung cancer.We retrospectively review the data as follows:the population and clinical characters,the subjective imaging diagnosis,the imaging characters of the nodule location,size,texture,shape,border,distance from the nearest pleural surface,and the appearance of the surrounding pulmonary parenchyma et al.Results Clinically,six of all the 16 patients are or were cigarette smokers or had an exposure history of inhaled particles,three patients else were all from a same oilfield area although they denied having the Aforementioned history of smoke or exposure.Lung cancer,metastatic tumor,lung cancer intrapulmonary metastasis were the common subjective imaging diagnosis,with a misdiagnosis rate of 56.3％.Radiologically,these intrapulmonary nodules could be seen in the chest X-ray in half of the 16 patients,with a discovery rate of 50％ in chest X- ray screening.The median size of the intrapulmonary lymph nodes was 7.1 mm (4 - 11 mm),all nodules located below the level of the carina,87.5％ ( 14/16 cases) were solid nodules,68.75％ ( 11/16 cases) were round or ovate in shape with a sharp border.87.5％ ( 14/16 cases) were attached to the pleura or within 1 cm from the nearest pleural surface,87.5％ ( 14/16 cases) appeared linear densities extending from the intrapulmonary lymph nodes.The linear denshy referred to the CT imaging feature that a linear soft-tissue density extended from the intrapulmonary lymph nodes,distinct from the normal lung marking like interlobular septa and bronchovascular bundles,with a diameter less than 5 mm; spiculation were detected in only 2 of the 16 patients ; no calcification and mediestinal lymphadenopathy was detect in all the nodules.Pathologically,All nodules contained anthracotic pigment,and follicular hyperplasia were seen in 8 cases.Conclusion Intrapulmonary lymph nodes are rare benign pulmonary nodules possessing certain clinical and radiologic features.Intrapulmonary lymph nodes should be suspected for small subpleural nodules below the level of the carina.

AIM: To study the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential(△?m) and mitochondrial mass in apoptosis of Jurkat cells induced by camptothecin(CPT).METHODS: Jurkat cells were treated with CPT.Annexin V-FITC/propidium iodine(PI) double stainig was used to detected early stage of apoptosis and PI staining for analyzing the cell cycle.Jurkat cells were stained by annexin V-PE/DiOC_6(3) to detect changes of △?m.The mitochondrial mass was measured by cytometry with NAO staining.RESULTS: 6 h after treated with 10 ?mol/L CPT,the rate of early apoptotic cells(22.59?1.04)% had significantly difference compared with control group(3.93?0.73)%(P0.05).Apoptotic peak appeared obviously after treated with CPT,the percentage of late apoptotic cells(13.58?0.97)% had distinctly difference compared with control group(3.18?0.51)%(P

AIM: To investigate the effect of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) on the proliferation of murine T lymphocytes stimulated by Con A in vitro and its related immunosuppressive mechanism. METHODS: Murine T lymphocytes were stimulated by Con A and treated with different concentrations of DHA. Cell proliferation was measured by carboxyl fluoresce in diacetate succinmidyl ester (CFDA-SE) staining. The expression of CD69, CD25 and CD71,which was the marker of early, middle, later activation of CD3~+ T lymphocytes, was measured by flow cytometry (FCM) combined with two-color immunofluorescent staining of cell surface antigen. Fluorescence calcium indicator fluo-4/AM was used to measure the change of the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca~(2+)]_i) of murine T lymphocytes. The distribution of the cell cycle was analyzed by PI staining. The expression of CD69, the early activation antigen on CD4~+CD25~(high) Treg was also measured by FCM combined with three-color immunofluorescent staining. RESULTS: The result of CFDA-SE staining showed that DHA efficiently inhibited the Con A-induced proliferation of T-lymphocytes in a time-and dose-dependent manners. DHA showed modestly increased proportions of CD69 and CD25 on Con A-stimulated CD3~+T cells, but inhibited the expression of CD25 in a dose dependent manner. DHA with Con A, but not DHA alone, caused an increase in intracellular calcium concentration of T cells. The results of FCM analysis with PI staining showed that DHA imposed a total cell cycle arrest in G_0/G_1 and prevented cells entering S phase and G_2/M phase. Furthermore, DHA reduced the expression of CD69 on CD4~+CD25~(high) Treg. CONCLUSION: DHA, which exhibits immunosuppressive effect on the proliferation of murine T-lymphocytes, is promising to be developed as an immunosuppressive reagent.

Objective To investigate the value of liver resection and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) on reactivation rates of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in hepatocellular cancer (HCC) patients with tumor ≤5 cm and determine influential factors.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed in clinical data of hepatocellular cancer patients with tumor ≤5 cm from Shengli Oilfield Centeral Hospital between July 2007 and March 2012,289 cases were assigned to liver resection group (n =157) and RFA group (n =132).Logistic regression was used to evaluate relative factors associated with HBV reactivation for univariate and multivariate analyses.The stratified x2 test was utilized to assess clinical outcomes in HBV reactivation subgroup with or without antiviral treatment.CD3 +,CD4+,CD8 +,CD4+/CD8 + and NK cell proportions were comparatively analysized.Results (1) The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed antiviral therapy,Child-Pugh grade,vascular invasion and treatment (liver resection or RFA) were significant risk factors of HBV reactivation (P ＜ 0.05).(2) HBV reactivation was lower in patients who received antiviral therapy than those who did not (10/109 vs 33/180,x2 =4.497,P ＜ 0.05).The viral reactivation rate for the liver resection group was higher than the RFA group in patients who did not receive antiviral therapy (24/98 vs 9/82,x2 =5.446,P ＜ 0.05),but the difference was not significant in patients who received antiviral therapy (6/59 vs 4/50,x2 =0.153,P ＞ 0.05).(3) The proportions of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD4 +/CD8 + and NK cell after treatment for 7 days decreased in various degrees for both the liver resection and RFA groups regardless of patients with or without antiviral therapy (P ＜ O.05).For the patients without antiviral therapy,the cell proportions in 7 days after treatment were significantly higher in the RFA group than that in the liver resection group (P ＜ 0.05),but the difference was not significant in patients with antiviral therapy (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions For the patients with tumor ≤5 cm,the proportions of immunological cells decreased in liver resection when compared with RFA.Preoperative antiviral therapy may have partial response in immunological suppression,and lowered the incidence of HBV reactivation.

Objective To prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of Computed Tomography (CT)-guided microcoil localization for pulmonary small solid nodules and ground-glass opacity prior to thoracoscopic resection.And to investigate the indication for CT-guided microcoil localization for small solid pulmonary nodules and ground-glass opacity.Methods From December 2012 to February 2014,85 enrolled patients with pulmonary solid nodules and ground-glass opacity underwent CT guided microcoil localization prior to video assisted thoracoscopic surgery.The procedures of localization were performed by trailing method or routine method under CT guided percutaneous pneumocentesis.For Trailing method,the microcoil was placed with the distal part coiled adjacent to the lesion and the proximal end coiled beyond the parietal pleura.By routine method,the entire microcoil was injected adjacent to the lesion.Results CT-guided microcoil placements were successful in all ninety-one lesions,including 15 solid nodules,15 mixed ground glass opacity,and 61 pure ground glass opacity,with an average diameter of 8.75mm(5-26 mm).The Complication rate of the localization procedure was 23.5％ (20/91),with 13 cases of asymptomatic pneumothorax,and 7 cases of pulmonary hematoma.None patient required surgical intervention,nor severe Complication occurred.All patients underwent video assisted thorascopic surgery on the same day or the next few days after microcoil localization.VATS removal of the pulmonary lesions was successful in all patients.However,two of 91 microcoils were found displaced during VATS resection.The success rate of microcoil marking VATS resection for pulmonary small solid nodules and ground-glass opacity was 97.8％.Microcoil marking was required for 84.6 percent of all the resected lesions.Conclusion Preoperatively CT-guided microcoil localization for pulmonary small solid nodules and ground-glass opacity is a feasible safe and effective marking technique for video assisted thoracoscopic resection.The indication for microcoil localization in our study meet the requirement of VATS resection.

Objective To evaluate the peri-operative and survival outcomes of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer Stage A and portal hypertension.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data on patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer Stage A and portal hypertension who underwent surgery at the Shengli Oilfield Central Hospital between July 2008 and June 2015.According to the operative method,the patients were classified as the experimental group (hepatectomy combined with splenectomy) and the control group (hepatectomy).We compared and analyzed the clinical data between these two groups,which included the operation time,blood loss,duration of hepatic portal occlusion,width of surgical resection margin,liver function,PLT,HBV reactivation,time to remove drainage tube,complications,upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage rate and survival outcomes.Results (1) The operation time,blood loss,PLT at 1 week and 1 month after surgery in the experimental group were all significantly higher than the control group [(161.4 ± 38.3) min vs.(119.2±36.4) min,(268.7±72.1) vs.(201.3±61.3) ml,(189.2±51.3) ×109/L vs.(81.9±32.2) ×109/L,(327.4±69.1) ×109/L vs.(84.5±28.5) × 109/L (all P＜0.05),respectively].The time to remove drainage tube,duration of hepatic portal occlusion,width of resection surgical margin,TBil,complications and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage rates of the two groups were not significantly different (all P ＞ 0.05).The HBV reactivation rate,ALT and AST in the experimental group were significantly lower than the control group [3.9％ (2/51) vs.18.2％ (12/66),(45.7 ± 11.4) U/L vs.(58.3±14.7) U/L,(48.1±12.4) U/Lvs.(61.3±15.1) U/L (allP＜0.05),respectively].(2) The 1,3 and 5-year recurrence free survival rates were not significantly different between the experimental and control groups [84.3 ％,34.1％,27.3 ％ vs.78.8 ％,42.1％,9.7 ％ (all P ＞ 0.05),respectively].The 1,3 and 5-year overall survival rates in the experimental Group were significantly higher than the control group [94.1％,66.3 ％,33.5 ％ vs.90.9％,46.7％,16.1％ (all P ＜ 0.05),respectively].Conclusion Combined liver and spleen resection was a safe and efficacious modality to treat patients with BCLC A hepatocellular carcinoma,which reduced the incidence of HBV reactivation and improved the overall survival.

Objective To evaluate a rapid biochip system for the determination of muhidrugresistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates. MethodsA total of 1 186 clinical strains, including 800 rifampin (RFP) resistant isolates, 797 isoniozid (INH)resistant isolates, 791 MDR-TB and 380 susceptible strains, were selected from Beijing Chest Hospital, Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital and Guangzhou Chest Hospital respectively using stratified sampling method. Biochips were used to detect loci of rpoB 511 (T→C), 513 (A→C, C→A), 516 (G→T, A→T, A→G) , 526 (C→T, C→G, A→T, A→G), 531 (C→T, C→G), 533 (T→C), katG 315 ( G→C, G→A) and inhA -15 (C→T). Absolute concentration drug susceptibility test of RFP and INH were performed to serve as the gold standard to calculate susceptibility, specificity and overall concordance of biochip test. All polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products were sequenced to confirm the mutations. ResultsThe concordances between the biochip system and absolute concentration drug susceptibility test were 93.7％ ( 1 108/1 183 ) for RFP, 83. 8％(994/1 186) for INH and 82.4％ (975/1 183) for MDR-TB. Compared with absolute concentration drug susceptibility test, the biochip method displayed a sensitivity of 92. 0％ (733/797) and 77. 4％ (617/797)and a specificity of 97. 2％ (375/386) and 96. 9％ (377/389) for RIF and INH, respectively. For MDR-TB, the biochip system reached a sensitivity of 74. 6％ ( 588/788 ) and a specificity of 98.0％ ( 387/395 ).Among rpoB mutants, mutations were mostly detected at codon 531[64. 5％ (480/744)]. In stains with mutations in katG or inhA, 77.4％ ( 487/629 ) had mutation at codon 315 ( TCG ) of katG only. The sequencing results had a high concordance with that of the biochip method. There were slight differences in 5 strains, among which one strain was detected by biochip as katG 315(G→C) mutant, but was identified by sequencing as wild type, and mutation types other than those detected by the biochip were confirmed in the other 4 strains by sequencing. Conclusion This biochip system is adapted for extensive application in clinical diagnosis, as it allows fast and reliable detection of resistance to isoniazid and rifampin in tuberculosis clinical isolates.
