Objective To inspect the correlation of synthetic effect criteria to sensitivity,reliability of late stage lung cancer curative effect verdict and median survival time. Method Using size change of tumor,symptom change related to tumor,Karnofsky score,body weight etc.as synthetic effect criteria and nstituting clinical synthetic effect criteria,to assess the curative effect of late stage lung cancer patients who received different treatment in department of tumor of Xiyuan Hospital between March 1997 and March 2000, to analysis medium survival time, and being compared with RR of tumor.Result 52 patients entered this experiment, in which 42 patients were assessable (follow up), 13 patients were effective(30.95％ ),17 were patients stable(40.48％ ),12 patients deteriorated (28.57％ ).The result of tumor objective remission rate: CR is 0,PR is 16.67％ (7 patients),NC is 64.29％ (27 patients) and PD is 19.05％ (8 patients).There was apparent difference between two effect criteria(P< 0.05).The mean survival time of this group is (9.3± 1.6)months,median survival time is 10.5 months(2～ 8months),survival rate of one year is 33.33％ (14 patients).In the patients who live longer than median survival time, most of them survive associated with tumor existence who are in NC of tumor objective remission rate, but also in the effective column of synthetic effect criteria. Compared with tumor objective remission rate,the synthetic effect criteria have more apparent correlation to survival time. Conclusion In the assessment of late stage lung cancer,synthetic effect criteria has better sensitivity and reliability,and emphasize survival quality,at same time it reflect the reaction of tumor and host to treatment,it reflect prognosis of tumor preferably and have better correlation to the survival time. It can be used as clinical effect criteria of late stage lung cancer after further consummation.

Objective To explore the effect of TNF related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) in apoptosis induced by LPS. Methods After LPS injected mice blocking TRAIL with soluble death receptor 5 (sDRS), detecting ALT, AST and LDH of mice serum at different times, apoptotic effects of LPS to mice hepatocyte were detected by HE and flow eytometry (FCM) with Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. The expres-sion of DR5 in mice hepatocyte was assayed with immunohistochemistry and FCM. Results Apoptotic effect was promoted by up-regulated DR5 expression on hepatocyte. Blocking TRAIL with sDR5 markedly amelio-rated the hepatocyte damage and reduced apoptosis. Conclusion These results establish a critical role for TRAIL in apoptosis during disease process of LPS.

The anti-tumor activity of curcumin against androgen-independent prostate cancer cells in vitro and the possible mechanism were investigated. After curcumin treatment, the effect of curcumin on the proliferation of prostate cancer PC-3 cells was assessed by CFSE staining. Flow cytometery (FCM) was performed to analyze the cell cycle and the induction of apoptosis of tumor cells. A luciferase reporter gene assay was used to determine the effects of curcumin on the activities of intracellular NF-κB and AP-1 signaling pathways. The results showed curcumin could effectively inhibit the proliferation of PC-3 cells in vitro (P<0.05). Cells were arrested at G(2)/M phase. After curcumin treatment, the percentage of apoptotic cells was significantly higher than in control group (P<0.05). The results of the luciferase assay revealed that curcumin selectively inhibited the activities of the NF-κB and AP-1 signaling pathways in PC-3 cells significantly. It was suggested that curcumin could exert anti-tumor activity against androgen-independent prostate cancer cells in vitro by inhibiting cellular proliferation and inducing apoptosis, which was probably contributed to the inhibition of transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1.

Objective To investigate the effects of breviscapine injection on intestinal injury induced by intestine ischemia-reperfusion(IIR). Methods 48 males SD rats with 8-week old were randomly divided into 4 groups:Sham,intestine ischemia-reperfusion(IIR),EB+IIR,TP+IIR. Breviscapine injection 20 mg/(kg·d) was given intraperitoneally in EB + IIR group. TPCA-1(12 mg/kg)was given intravenously 30 min before surgery in TP+IIR group. Rats were subjected to superior mesenteric artery occlusion consisting of 45 min of ischemia and 6 h of reperfusion;sham laparotomy served as controls. Intestine pathology was assayed by H&E staining. Con-centrations of TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 in intestinal mucosa were determined by ELISA. The protein expressions of IκB-α,NF-κB ,ICAM-1of intestine tissue were assayed by western blot. Results IIR induced serious intesti-nal injury ,evidenced as poor intestine pathology ,elevation of TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 levels in intestinal mu- cosa,accompanied with IκB-α/NF-κB/ICAM-1 pathway activation. However,breviscapine injection pretreatment could inhibit IκB-α/NF-κB/ICAM-1 pathway activation,leading to reduction of TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 concen-trations in lung,finally attenuate ALI induced by IIR. Conclusion Breviscapine injection pretreatment could atten-uate inflammation in intestine after IIR injury via inhibiting IκB-α/NF-κB/ICAM-1signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the cause of varicocele (VC) recurrence and investigate the efficacy of sub-inguinal microsurgical varicocelectomy (MV) for recurrent VC.Methods:All of 16 inpatients diagnosed as recurrent VC, in the Department of Andrology of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from 2015 April to 2019 April, were performed sub-inguinal MV. The age of the inpatients was 18-36 years old, median 27 years old.5 cases were originally performed retroperitoneal high ligation of spermatic vein and other 11 cases were originally performed laparoscopic varicocelectomy. During the review one to three years after the previous operation, all of 16 patients were diagnosed as VC recurrence. The complains of these patients during the review included male subfertility (10 cases) and scrotal pain (12 cases), in which 6 cases’ complains were male subfertility with scrotal pain. After admission, 13 patients were classified as Grade Ⅲ (left in 8 cases, bilateral in 5 cases) and 3 patients as Grade Ⅱ (all left). The median of their visual analogue scale (VAS) was 2.5. Color doppler flow imaging (CDFI) grading showed: Grade Ⅲ in 12 cases (left in 7 cases, bilateral in 5 cases), Grade Ⅱ in 4 cases (all left). Particularly, 12 of them were Graded as Ⅲ simultaneously accompanying with Nut-cracker Phenomenon (NCP). Preoperative tests showed that the average serum testosterone was (16.2±4.9)nmol/ml, the average sperm concentration was (11.8±3.9)×10 6/ml and the progressive motility rate (PR) was (24.4±4.2)%. All of the patients were performed sub-inguinal MV using general anesthesia and supine position. The spermatic cords were clearly exposed and padded up by inserting gauze strips under them. During the operation, the field was magnified 4-6 times with the microscope. Then all of the dilated external and internal spermatic veins were ligated, at the same time the internal spermatic artery and lymph vessels were well preserved. During these operations, 11 patients underwent left-side MV, while other 5 did bilateral MVs. During these MVs, we found twisted and dilated external and internal spermatic veins in all cases and well preserved the internal spermatic arteries and lymph vessels. The number of ligated left and right external spermatic veins were(2.1±0.6) and (1.4±0.5)respectively and the number of ligated left and right internal spermatic veins were (10.1±1.1) and (6.6±0.5) respectively. We also found out(1.3±0.5) internal spermatic arteries and (3.0±1.0)lymph-vessels on left side. On right side, there were (1.4±0.5) internal spermatic arteries and (2.6±0.5) lymph-vessels respectively. At last, we summarily analyzed the pre-operative and post-operative VAS, serum testosterone, CDFI and semen analysis data. Results:All of the 16 sub-inguinal MVs were successfully performed. All patients were reviewed comprehensively 6 months after MV. The reviewed results showed that the post-operative VAS was significantly reduced ( Z=-2.994, P<0.05), palpable scrotal vessels disappeared and Valsalva tests were negative. No obvious reflux of internal spermatic veins were detected by CDFI. Interestingly, the sperm concentration and motility were both significantly improved 6 months after MV ( P<0.05), while there was not remarkable increase of the serum testosterone after MV ( P>0.05). During the follow up, no testicular atrophy, hydrocele and other complications were found. Up to submission, five of the ten patients who presented for male subfertility have impregnated their wives. Conclusions:The most possible cause of VC recurrence could be the omission of the external and internal spermatic veins, particularly in the grade Ⅲ VC patients or VC accompanied with NCP. The sub-inguinal MV, which can discover more twisted spermatic veins and at the same time preserve the spermatic artery and lymph-vessels, shows better clinical efficacy than other procedures.

Objective To investigate the effect of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on remifentanil-in-duced hyperalgesia after cesarean section under general anesthesia,and its effect on serum homocysteine(Hcy)level and postpartum depression.Methods A total of fifty patients undergoing cesarean section under general anesthesia were randomly divided into the esketamine group and the control group(25 cases in each group).The two groups were given esketamine 0.2 mg/kg and the same amount of normal saline by slow in-jection 10 min after fetal delivery.Then,the extubation time,visual analogue scale(VAS)score within two hours after operation,and consumption of morphine while in the post-anaesthesia care unit(PACU)were compared between the two groups.The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS)scores were compared at one day before surgery,one day,four days,and one month after surgery.Serum Hcy levels were measured at one day before surgery,one day and four days after surgery.Results There was no significant difference in extubation time between the two groups(P>0.05).Compared with the control group,it took a longer time for patients in the esketamine group to have a VAS score≥4 for the first time,but the time from morphine injection to a VAS score<4 was shortened(P<0.05).The amount of morphine used in the esketamine group was lower than that in the control group in PACU(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the VAS scores of the esketamine group decreased at 15 min,30 min,45 min,one hour,and 90 min after surgery(P<0.05),while there was no statistical significance difference in VAS scores at two hours after surgery(P<0.05).EPDS scores in the esketamine group were lower than those in the control group at one day and four days after surgery(P>0.05),but there was no statistically significant between the two groups at one month after surgery(P>0.05).Serum Hcy level in the esketamine group was lower than that in the control group at one day and four days after surgery(P<0.05).Conclusion The subanesthetic dose of esketamine during caesarean section under general anesthesia can effectively relieve remifentanil-induced postoperative hy-peralgesia and prevent the occurrence of postpartum depression.
