Herald of Medicine 2015;(7):903-906
Objective To investigate the efficacy of paroxetine hydrochloride on elderly ulcerative colitis with anxiety /depression as adjuvant treatment. Methods The total of 80 cases of elderly ulcerative colitis with anxiety / depression were randomly assigned to the treatment and control groups ( n= 40 cases) . The mild or moderate UC patients in the control group were treated with mesalazine enteric coated tablets 1 g,tid,po or 1 g,qid,po, respectively;upon the complete treatment for 2 weeks, the patients with lower response were added with prednisone acetate tablets 10 mg,qid,po;and the patients in the treatment group were treated with paroxetine hydrochloride tablets starting from 10 mg·d-1 to 20 mg·d-1 3 days later, for 2 months in addition to the basic treatment as those in the control group. No alcohol, no coffee and no irritated foods were allowed during the treatment;regular reexamination was taken once for every 2 weeks. The clinical manifestations and colonoscopy Mayo composite score and Hamilton anxiety / depression ( HAMA/HAMD) score test were assessed for every patient before and after treatment, to detect the improvement after treatment. Results After treatment, the Mayo scores of the treatment group decreased significantly in comparison to the control group,with the total efficiency was markedly higher than that of the control group ( P<0. 05);HAMA and HAMD in treatment group were obviously lower than those before treatment ( both P<0. 01);HAMA and HAMD scores in the control group displayed no variation after treatment. Conclusion The adjuvant therapy of paroxetine hydrochloride remarkably improves the clinical and endoscopic manifestations of elderly patients with ulcerative colitis with anxiety/depression.

Objective Ultra-wideband (UWB) microwave imaging is one of the promising alternatives for breast tumor detection, which can provide the desired high resolution and high sensitivity. Methods For UWB microwave early breast tumor detection, a UWB antenna with small size and compact structure is generally desired. To meet the demands of UWB microwave imaging and detection, a novel compact UWB probe is developed and tested. The probe is a combination of an exponentially-flared TEM horn and a pyramidal back-cavity, where the pyramidal back-cavity is employed to block back and side radiation. To increase the operation bandwidth, a low-frequency compensation loop loaded with resistors and a dielectric material block at the throat of TEM horn are added to the probe. Results The compact probe is fabricated and tested by vector network analyzer E8362B, and the results demonstrate an operation frequency band ranging from 1.36GHz to 20GHz for return loss under -10dB. Conclusion The probe can meet the needs of UWB microwave imaging for the early breast tumor detection.

Objective To investigate the inducible ability of plasmid DNA carrying a RU486 regulatory system.Methotis Plasmid pRS22 containing RU486 regulatory system,liver specific promoter and transgene IL-12 was injected into mice by hydrodynamic injection.RU486 was injected intraperitoneally into mice at difierent time points after plasmid administration.The IL-12 1evel in serum was tested by an ELISA kit.The distribution and inducible expression of pRS22 in mice were assayed by measuring DNA,RNA and protein levels by PCR,RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining.Resuits To determine the duration of the activity of plasmid pRS22,mice injected with 10μg of pRS22 were treated repeatedly with 250μg/kg of RU486 per 7 days after hydrodynamic injection of plasmid.IL-12 expression in serum abruptly increased to peak was detected at 10 h after induction and declined to baseline on day 6.Though peak values of IL-12 decreased gradually after each induction,IL-12 in serum could be induced until 15 weeks after plasmid administration.A total of 5μg of pRS22 was injected into mice to detect the effect of different induction manners on the IL-12 expression.The mice were treated with RU486 per day or per 2 days iil 6 days,respectively.The induction per 2 days resulted in a wavelike pattern of serum IL-12 expression with peak lev-els on the day of induction alternating with lower values on the following day.In contrast,sustained levels of IL-12 could be achieved by administering RU486 per day.Plasmid DNA and GLp65 mRNA were detected in liver of mice with or without RU486 until at least day 28 after plasmid administration.However,IL-12 p35 mRNA was detected only in the liver of mice with RU486 induction.IL-12 immunohistochemical staining in liver demonstrated that IL-1 2 expressed predominantly in the hepatocytes near the surface of liver or between the central vein and portal area after induction with RU486.In contrast,no IL-12 expression was observed in the hepatocytes after induction with sesame oil.Conclusion Tight temporal and spatial control of transgene IL-12 expression could be achieved by RU486 regulatory system driven by liver specific promoter.

Objective To evaluate the curative efficacy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) on bile leaks after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods Data of 12 cases, hospitalized in our hospital from March 2013 to February 2016, with bile leaks after OLT confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging of the pancreas (MRCP) or ERCP were retrospectively analyzed . The curative efficacy of ERCP was evaluated including clinical symptoms of bile leaks and complications, occurrence time and location, diagnosis and treatment process and efficacy. Results In this study, 12 cases were male patients, with the average age of 49.75 ± 8.55 (age from 35 to 62 years old). Among them 11 cases were successfully treated by endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD), and the success rate of endoscopical therapy was 91.7%, the curative rate of bile leaks was 91.7%(11/12). No ERCP related serious complications and death were found in patients. Nine cases combined with biliary strictures and/or biliary duct stone/bile plug were performed endoscopic sphinctrotomy (EST) during the first time of ERCP, and accepted further ERCP treatment after 2 weeks when the bile leaks were healed. All patients with ENBD were carried out well except one case. Conclusion ERCP is a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment method for different types of bile leaks after OLT.
