Objective:To determine the prognostic value of DNA ploidy and nuclear morphometry,and its relations to nuclear grading in renal cell carcinoma.Methods:Pathological grading were done in 47cases of renal cell carcinoma in accordance with the system proposed by Fuhrman et al.Feulgen staining were performed in the tumor histological slides,and the technique of image cytometry was used to quantitate nuclear DNA ploidy and nuclear morphological parameters.The results combined with the data of clinical follow up were analyzed.Results:The mean DNA ploidy in grade Ⅰ～Ⅱ was mainly 2C,≥5C cells less than 10%;the 2C cells in grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ were lower than in grade Ⅰ～Ⅱ,≥5C cells were more than 20%.Among the four grades DNA ploidy were statistically different( P

80) via portal vein.After reperfusion 1 h,1 d,3d and 7 d respectively,the concentration of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and catalase(CAT) were tested,and the apoptosis of hepatocarcinoma also was observed using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling(TUNEL) method.Results The results indicated that the SOD concentration in both hepatocarcinoma tissue and normal hepatic tissues decreased following I/R and perfusion with hyperoxic fluid liquid.The concentration of CAT increased following I/R in normal hepatic tissues.In hepatocarcinoma tissue,concentration of CAT decreased after reperfusion for 1 d and reached its lowest point.After perfusion with hyperoxic fluid,the concentration of SOD in both hepatocarcinoma tissue and normal hepatic tissues decreased more quickly following I/R and the low level was still found on 7 d after reperfusion.The concentration of CAT in tissues of both groups decreased and reached the lowest level at 1 h after reperfusion,but it was restored at 3 d reperfusion in normal hepatic tissues,and in hepatocarcinoma tissue was still at lower level until 7 d after reperfusion. After I/R,the apoptotic cells increased in normal hepatic and hepatic cancer tissues,and were most marked in tissues of hepatic carcinoma at 1 d and 3 d after perfusion with hyperoxic fluid.After I/R and perfusing with hyperoxic fluid,the changes of SOD and CAT and apoptosis in hepatocarcinoma tissue were more obvious than that in normal hepatic tissues(P

Ankle sprains are orthopedic clinical common disease, accounting for joint ligament sprain of the first place. If treatment is not timely or appropriate, the joint pain and instability maybe develop, and even bone arthritis maybe develop. The mechanism of injury of ankle joint, anatomical basis has been fully study at present, and the diagnostic problem is very clear. Along with the development of science and technology, biological modeling and three-dimensional finite element, three-dimensional motion capture system,digital technology study, electromyographic signal study were used for the basic research of sprain of ankle. Biomechanical and kinematic study of ankle sprain has received adequate attention, combined with the mechanism research of ankle sprain,and to explore the the biomechanics and kinematics research progress of the sprain of ankle joint.

Objective To investigate the mechanism by which electro-acupuncture (EA) promotes revascularization in the brain after focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.Methods The Sprague-Dawley rat model of focal cerebral ischemia was made by filament occlusion. The rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, and an EA group. The model and EA groups were each divided into 5 subgroups receiving reperfusion 1, 3,7, 14 or 21 days after ischemia. EA was given at the bilateral Hegn point (LI 4) in the EA group. The expression of stromal cell-derived factor-1α(SDF-1α) mRNA was detected using a RT-PCR in the 3, 7 and 14 day subgroups.The immunohistochemical method was employed to detect the expression of SDF-1α protein. Results Compared with the control group, expression of SDF-1α protein increased significantly in the model and EA groups. Compared with the model group, the expression of SDF-1α mRNA increased significantly in the 3, 7 and 14 day subgroups.SDF-1α protein expression and microvessel count increased slightly but not significantly in the 1d subgroup, but the increases were significant in the 3, 7, 14 and 21 day subgroups.Conclusions EA may promote angiogenesis in an ischemic area of the cortex by increasing the expression of SDF-1αmRNA and its protein after focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.

Objective:To observe the clinical treatment effects of Tangkang Xifang in the patients with type 0 diabetes foot ( DF) . Methods:Totally 73 patients with type 0 DF were randomly divided into the treatment group (n=37) and the control group (n=36). All the patients discontinued other medications for 7d before the treatment. Base on the blood glucose control with the traditional treat-ment by metformin hydrochloride (1. 5 g·d-1), the treatment group was additionally given warm water foot bath with Tangkang Xi-fang, while the control group was additionally given warm water foot bath, 30 min per time and twice a day for 60 days. The changes in the clinical symptoms, ankle brachial index ( ABI) , motor nerve conduction velocity ( MCV) and some other indices were measured before and after the treatment. Results:In comparison with the control group (58. 3%), the treatment group had higher total effective rate (86. 5%), and the usage of Tangkang Xifang also significantly improved the physiopathologic syndromes of peripheral artery dis-ease and neuropathy (P<0. 01). The ABI and MCV in the treatment group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion:Tangkang Xifang can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of type 0 DF, which is suitable for the clinical application.

The diversity of diagnostic criteria of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) makes it difficult to compare clinical trial results and exchange clinical experiences. To address this issue, an ITP international working group convened a consensus conference in Italy in October 2007, and some new consensus concerning the terminology, definition, phases, grading of severity, prognosis, and treatment were achieved. The treatment of ITP has been dramatically improved along with the introduction of novel therapeutic agents. Rituximab, a monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody that is able to deplete autoantibody-producing B lymphocytes, has been widely applied because of its high efficacy and safety. Recent evidences suggest that decreased platelet production may also contribute to the development of ITP. Therefore, novel thrombopoiesis-stimulating agents such as thrombopoietin-receptor agonists Romiplostim and Eltrombopag have become new therapeutic options for ITP.

The flow distribution of leukocytes in the microvasculature of rat skeletal muscle during hemorrhagic shock was measured by Microcirculation Image Multiple Parameters Computer Analysis System (MIMPCAS). It was found that the change of leukocyte flow distribution had taken place in V3 during hemorrhagic shock as follows: central axial-flowing leukocytes moved slowly, marginated to the vessel wall then started to roll along the wall, and stuck to the endothelium at last. During transfusion blood flow became faster, sticking leukocytes were rushed out to be rolling along the vessel wall and accelerated to enter the central stream. Total leukocyte -endothelium contact time (TLECT), which is a quantitative index for leukocyte endothelium interaction, is calculated, and it was found that TLECT was prolonged in shock state. The results show that it is not enough to increase blood pressure and shear stress to liberate sticking leukocytes, and it is necessary to search for a new approach to decrease the adhesive force between leukocyte and endothelium. Polygonum cuspidatum may not only increase wall shear rate but also decrease the adhesive force.
