Objective:To study the improving effect of dexamethasone on hypoxia and pulmonary edema in rabbits with seawater drowning induced pulmonary edema.Methods: Twenty-four ventilated New Zealand rabbits were instilled by seawater(4 ml/kg body weight) into lower trachea and were then equally randomized into the control group(CG) and the dexamethasone treatment group(DG).Rabbits in DG group were injected with dexamethasone(1 mg/kg body weight) on 20 min after seawater instillation and rabbits in CG group with 2 ml normal saline.PaO_(2),PaCO_(2),static compliance(C_(T)) and dynamic compliance(C_(D)) were observed before and after(20 min and 180 min) seawater drowning experiment;extravascular lung water index(EVLWI) and Evan's blue leakage index(ELI) were also determined in 2 groups.Results: At 180 min after seawater instillation,the PaO_(2),C_(T) and C_(D) in DG group were significantly higher and PaCO_(2)was significantly lower than those in CG group(P

With its excellent character , Holmium:Yag laser had been used in more and more areas of medicine. It's growing success is a result of its excellent performance as both a lithotriptor and a surgical laser on soft tissues. The low level laser power is a good stimulator to the growth of biological tissue and the metabolism of cells.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect and safety of combination chemotherapy with oxaliplatin( L-OHP) plus 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)/folinic acid( CF) in advanced colorectal cancer( ACRC). Methods: 31 patients with ACRC entered the study. L-OHP 130 mg/m2 , iv infusion for 4 hours on day 1; CF 200 mg/m2 , iv infusion for 2 hours followed by 5-FU 500mg/ m , iv infusion for 4 hours from day 1 to day 5, repeated every 3 weeks. Results: There were 10 partial responses, 7 stable disease, 9 progressive disease, the response rate being 38. 5% . The main adverse effect was neuro-sensory toxicity which was seen in 90. 3% of the patients. Vomitting and diarrhea was observed in 58. 1% and 45. 2% of the patients respectively. Bone marrow suppression was mild. Conclusions: L-OHP combination with 5-FU/CF yields an encouraging response with acceptable toxicity in our study. Furthermore clinical reseach is worthwhile.

Cytotoxic substances and ionizing radiation can easily induce DNA damage, and double strand breaks (DSBs) are the main form of DNA damage. DNA damage can activate intracellular DNA damage responses and further induce related biological effects, such as DNA damage repair and cell cycle arrest. Homologous recombination (HR) is the primary DSB repair mechanism in eukaryotes. Abnormal expression of Rad51C, which is a key factor in the HR pathway, may result in DNA repair disorder, genomic instability, and eventually lead to tumor formation. In recent studies, researchers considered Rad51C as a potential target for cancer treatment. We reviewed the research progress on Rad51C in DNA damage repair and radiotherapy.

Objective:Both URL and MPCNL have been widely applied in the treatment of ureteral calculi.In this study,the safety,efficiency and degree of injury were compared between retrograde and antegrade access ureterolithotripsy for the calculi complicated with infection,in order to clarify the indications of the two types of minimally invasive techniques.Methods:A total of 192 patients with upper ureteral calculi complicated with infection were treated with ureterolithotripsy.The operation was performed via retrograde transurethral access in 72 patients and via antegrade percutaneous nephrostomy tract in 120 patients.Results:The success rate of retrograde approach was 93.1%.Mean operating time was 45.9?16.5min(20-90 min) with mean hospital stay of 5.1?1.8(2-6) days.The stone free rate was 84.7%(61/72) at 1 month follow-up.5 patients with residual calculi required combined ESWL.Complications were noted in 5.6%,CRP was 10.59?5.12 mg/L before operation,and was 38.63?4.61 mg/L 24h after the operation.The success rate of antegrade approach was 99.2%.Mean operating time was 62.4?17.6 min(40-120 min) with mean hospital stay of 8.57?2.57(5-15) days.The stone free rate was 100% and 1 complication was noted(0.01%).CRP was 11.29?5.38 mg/L before the operation,34.93?7.82 mg/L 24h after the operation.For the success rate and stone free rate,antegrade approach was higher than retrograde approach(P0.05)between the two groups before operation,but antegrade approach had lower CRP(P

Objective:To observe the therapeutic effects of lung protective ventilation on acute lung injury caused by chest trauma and seawater.Methods: Acute lung injury was induced in 18 healthy dogs by open pneumothorax and seawater and the dogs were then randomly divided into 3 groups: non-treatment group(received no treatment),common treatment group(nasal ventilation,thoracic drianage and intravenous 5% glucose solution) and lung protective ventilation group(mechanical ventilation,thoracic drianage and intravenous 5% glucose solution).Blood samples were taken at different time points to observe the changes of blood gas(PaO_(2),PaCO_(2)and PaO_(2)/FiO_(2)),hemodynamic parameters(heart rate,mean blood pressure,cardiac output) and cytokines(TNF-?,IL-4 and IL-8).Results: After injury,PaO_(2) declined significantly in the dogs,PaO_(2)/FiO_(2) was lower than 300 and the levels of TNF-?,IL-6 and IL-8 were increased obviously.PaO_(2),PaO_(2)/FiO_(2) and TNF-? level were significantly higher in lung protective ventilation group than those in common treatment group(P

0.05). Conclusions TNF-? and TGF-?1 had a very important role in etiology of chronic abacterial prostatitis and they can be the objective parameters in the diagnosis of chronic prostatitis.

Objective To compare and evaluate Organelle-cell fluorescence intensity ratio analysis established in this study with other techniques to determine the subcellular localization of photosensitizers. Methods CCD fluorescence microscopy imaging system was applied and a kind of special organelle probe BODIPY was selected to label Golgi body. Directly observing, pseudo-color fusing, wave-shape comparing, correlation coefficient calcula-ting and Organelle-cell fluorescence intensity ratio analysis were adopted, respectively, to study the intracellular distribution of domestic photosensitizer Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME). Results Fluorescence distributing modes of HMME and BODIPY were similar with each other. There ware yellow space-overlap areas in the fusion image. Wave body of changing curve of gray scale value of all pixels in the straight line in two images corresponding to space coordinate was similar with each other. Correlation coefficient in each pixel between fluorescence intensity of HMME and that of BODIPY was 0.602 4. With increasing of parameter m, namely degree of organelles congregated reducing, the average fluorescence intensity ratio (J_1/J_2) of Golgi complex was decreasing, the two parameters po-ssessed obvious relativity.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the anesthesia management of applying minimally invasive percutaneous neplrolithotripsy for treating hepatolithiasis.Methods The anaesthesia method,anesthetic effect,the time of resuscitation after anesthesia and side -effect of anesthesia in 86 patients who were underwent minimally invasive percutaneous neplrolithotripsy for hepatolithiasis were analyzed.Results All 86 patients were satisfied with anesthetic effect and completed surgery successfully.Among them,48 patients underwent operation with epidural anesthesia,31 patients with general anesthesia and 7 patients with the management of anesthesia monitoring(MAC) plus with local anesthesia.The time of resuscitation after anesthesia in general anesthesia patients was longer than those of epidural anesthesia and MAC.6 patients were delayed recovery and hypothermia after general anesthesia, 4 cases of epidural anesthesia and 1 case of MAC appeared cholecyst -heart reflection,and 2 cases of epidural anesthesia vomiting intraoperation.Conclusion The rational anesthesia method for patients underwent minimally invasive percutaneous neplrolithotripsy for treating hepatolithiasis should consider reasonably heart and lung function, maintain hemodynamics and respiratory stably,pay attention to insulation intraoperation,prevent cholecyst -heart reflection and shorten the operation time,which can reduce the side -effect of anesthesia and were favor for recovery after operation.

Objective To summarize the experience of applying choledochoscopy, duodenoscopy and laparoscopy, one-stage suturing of common bile duct, to treat cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis that failed to respond to ordinary endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST). Methods Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of twenty-five pa-tients with choledocholithiasis complicated with cholecystolithiasis. 25 cases of failure to endoscopic stone extraction underwent LC and laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with primary suture of (BD) from June 2013 to June 2015. Results One patient was converted to laparotomy with small incision. The other one had residual stones and therefore underwent a second EST. After the treatment, two patients developed hyperamylasemia, which was cured by conservative therapy; One patient had bile leakage, which was treated by percutaneous drainage with no serious complications and death. No long-term complication was found in a portion of patients followed up until now. Conclusion In properly selected patients of duodenoscopy management-failed, synchronous treatment of combined application of three endoscopies in laparoscopic surgery with primary suture of (BD) is feasible, effective and safe.
