Objective To explore the effects of anatomical and nonanatomical hepatectomy on the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A total of 62 HCC patients were enrolled,including 33 cases of anatomical hepatectomy(Group AH)and 29 cases of nonanatomical hepa-tectomy(Group IH).The operation situation and hematocrystallin(HB)loss were record.Fasting venous blood of HCC patients were extracted for detection of circulating AFP mRNA expression.The recurrence, mortality and complication rate were recorded at the same time.Results The operative time of Group AH was significantly higher than that of Group IH,while the bleeding volume and HB loss were lower(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in AFP mRNA expression and recurrence rate.The short-term mortality rate of Group AH was lower than Group IH(P<0.05 ),but their long-term mortality rates were similar(P>0.05 ).There was no significant difference in complication rate between groups.Patients of Group AH got more hepatosis due to liver cirrhosis or fibrosis,while patients of Group IH got more bleeding or infection due to the central tumor.Conclusion Anatomical hepatectomy has advantages in protecting artery and improving prognosis for HCC patients,but it has surgical risks for patients with serious patholog-ical damage in hepatic lobes,and nonanatomical hepatectomy may be considered.

With the development of molecular mechanisms of hepatocelluar carcinoma,targeted therapy has been a research hotspot in recent years.Some target agents of hepatocellular carcinoma have been approved.We summarize the progress of targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma in this paper.

With the improvement of endoscopic retrograde eholangiopancreatography (ERCP) technology, endoscopy is not only applied to diagnosis, but also utilized to therapy for cholangiopancreatic neoplasm. This article is to summarize the application of endoscopic technology on cholangiopancreatic neoplasm.

MicroRNA ( miRNA) is a family of 19 - 24 nucleotides small non - coding RNA in eukaryotic organisms , which can regulate genes at the post - transcriptional level. miRNA has been shown to be involved in a variety of cellular processes such as development, proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis etc, and is closely related to the oncogene-sis. Recent study indicates that several miRNAs play an important role in initiation and progression of hematological malignancies. miRNA expression profiling has identified signatures associated with diagnoses, prognoses and therapy of hematological malignancies. The review discusses miRNA and its biogenesis, functional mechanisms and potential role in the diagnosis , prognoses and therapy of hematological malignancies.

Objective To analyse the imaging characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis(TB) in elder in order to improve its diagnostic accuracy.Methods Radiological and CT fndings of pulmonary tuberculosis in 200 old patients were analysed retrospectively.Results The types of TB in 200 patients were:type Ⅱin 13 cases(6.5%),type Ⅲ in 163 cases (81.5%),accompanied with the pleuritis in 44 cases(22%) and type Ⅳ in 24 cases (12%).The mainly imaging findings included:old lesions in 85 cases(42.5%),exudative and/or multiplicative lesions in 81 cases (40.5%),caseous pneumonia in 47 cases(23.5%),cavitive lesions in 127 cases(63.5%),tuberculoma in 12 cases(6%),miliary nodules in 13 cases(6.5%),TB pleuritis in 68 cases(34%) and enlargement of lymph nodes in 57 cases (28.5%).Conclusion TB in elder is of characteristics of atypical location and unstable morphology.

Exposure of gerbils 120 min to a high concentration oxygen (HCO)atmosphere after 60 min cerebral ischemia resulted in a marked increase in cerebral malondialdehyde (MDA, 4.39?0.26 nmol/mg protein). Much less cerebral MDA was among the other groups (2.63?0.50 nmol/mg protein in sham-operated controls; 3.07?0.52 nmol/mg protein in gerbils exposed to HCO without ischemia; 2.96?0.41nmol/mg protein in ger. bils subjected to 60 min ischemia; 2.79?0.59nmol/mg protein in gerbils subjected to 60 min ischemia and 120 min reperfusion). The contents of cerebral water, sodium, increassd after 60 mln cerebral ischemia. The contents of TXB_2 increased, 6-Keto-PGF_(1?) decreased, the elevation of cerebral water and sodium were more obvious after 120 min repefusion following ischemia. There was no difference in these items except for MDA between the reperfusion groups within air and within HCO.The authors proposed the mechanism that HCO elevates the contents of cerebral MDH might be due to abnormal function of election transport chain of mitochondria.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of early before PCI and immediate application of tirofiban on coronary blood flow and myocardial perfusion in patients with high risk acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS:100 high risk ACS patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 50 cases in each group. Two groups were given tiro-fiban;observation group was given medicine 10 μg/kg within 3 min,4-6 h before PCI,with the velocity of 0.15 μg/(kg·min)till 24 h after PCI. Control group was given medicine at the beginning of PCI,route of administration was same as observation group. The incidence of TIMI blood flow grading,TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG),cTn Ⅰ,PAR and main adverse cardiac events(MACE)were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment. RESULTS:After operation,the patients of 2-3 grade TIMI blood flow and 2-3 grade TMPG in 2 groups were significantly more than before;the patients of 2-3 grade TMPG in observa-tion group was significantly more than in control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). After treatment,cTn Ⅰof 2 groups were significantly increased,while PAR were significantly decreased,with statistical significance compared to before operation (P<0.05);but there was no difference between 2 groups (P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of MACE between observation group(8.0%)and control group(16.0%)(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Early application of tirofiban before PCI can effectively improve coronary blood flow and myocardial blood supply in high risk ACS patients.

Objective:To evaluate the expression of EGFR and gene nm23H1 and their relation to the tumor oncogenesis and progress of cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:SABC immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of EGFR and nm23H1 in cholangiocarcinoma and cholangitis tissue.Results:The positive rate of nm23H1 in cholangiocarcinoma was lower than cholangitis(P

With the wide application of liver transplantation techniques,rapid development of digital imaging medicine and continuous update of surgical implements,the theory of precision hepatectomy still keeps optimizing.Precision hepatectomy is not a surgical implement or surgical technique,but a concept of liver surgery emphasizing less bleeding,minimal invasion,fast recovery and long-term curative effect,which is updating and improving with the development of modern science.Much less intraoperative bleeding,shorter operation time,better postoperative recovery and long-term survival should be the chief pursuit and principle of precision hepatectomy.

Hepatic satellite cell (HSC) is a kind of nonparenchymal cells in the liver,which releases various collagenous fibers and cytoskeletal proteins,playing an important role in the pathophysiological changes of the liver.In normal,HSCs maintain normal tissue architecture via regulating the synthesis and degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins.During liver injury,HSCs were activated.Activated HSCs are the main cells that lead to the accumulation of extracellular matrix,which is the main reason of hepatic fibrosis,cirrhosis and liver failure.Therefore,lucubrating the role and mechanism of HSC in the progress of hepatic disease and investiating the HSC-related therapeutic strategies have practical significances for the prevention and treatment of liver injury and raise of patients' survival rates in clinical practice.
