Objective To investigate the curative effect and safety of microinvasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (MPCNL) and ureteroscope lithotripsy (URSL) in treatment of children′s (≤6 years old) middle and upper segment ureteral calculi. Methods Eighty children (≤6 years old) with middle and upper segment ureteral calculi were selected, and they were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method with 40 cases each. The children of observation group were treated with MPCNL, and the children of control group were treated with URSL. The operation time, hospitalization time, calculi clearance rate of the first phase, decline situation of the postoperative hemoglobin and hematocrit and complication were compared between 2 groups. Results The operation time and hospitalization time in observation group were significantly shorter than those in control group:(45.43 ± 9.76) min vs. (68.32 ± 11.28) min and (8.12 ± 1.03) d vs. (13.45 ± 2.34) d, the calculi clearance rate of the first phase was significantly higher than that in control group: 100.0% (40/40) vs. 62.5%(25/40), the incidence of complication was significantly lower than that in control group:20.0%(8/40) vs. 60.0% (24/40), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in the decline situation of the postoperative hemoglobin and hematocrit between 2 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions The MPCNL in treatment of children′s middle and upper segment ureteral calculi has short operation time, high calculi clearance rate of the first phase, and low incidence of perioperative complication. Compared with URSL, the URSL is safe and efficient, and it is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To observe the microstructural changes in lesions of alopecia areata (AA) with dermoscopy and to evaluate their correlation with clinicopathological manifestations. Methods The area of alopecia of 62 patients with AA and 44 patients with other types of hair loss were observed by using a noncontact polarized dermoscope (Dermlite, USA). Clinical data on and laboratory findings from these patients were collected. Pathological examination was carried out with scalp biopsy specimens from the alopecia area of 15 AA patients. Results Characteristic dermoscopic signs of AA included yellow dots, black dots, broken hairs, exclamation mark hairs, short vellus hair and newly-grown short hairs. Among these signs, yellow dots showed the highest prevalence (83.9%). Exclamation mark hairs, black dots and broken hairs were rather specific signs for AA, and the prevalence of the three signs was positively correlated with disease activity and positivity rate of hair-pull test. A positive correlation was also noted between the prevalence of elevated thyroid peroxidase antibody levels and positivity rate of hair-pull test (r = 0.269, P ＜ 0.05 ) as well as prevalence of broken hairs (r = 0.445, P ＜ 0.05), and between the prevalence of yellow dots and that of keratinous plug in follicular orifice. There was a negative correlation between the prevalence of newly-grown short hairs and perifollicular mast cell infiltration and between the prevalence of black dots and the anagen/catagen ratio. Conclusions Yellow dots can serve as a preliminary screening marker for AA. Exclamation mark hairs, black dots and broken hairs are highly sensitive for the confirmation of diagnosis of AA, and often predict progressive AA.Dermoscopic signs are well correlated to the histopathology features of AA, and may be useful for the evaluation of disease severity and guidance on the treatment of AA.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of paraplatin used within the cavity for the treatment of malignant serous cavity effusion. Methods Puncturing with catheter of centre vein and permanent catheter, withdrawing proper volume of malignant effusion, 150 ～ 450 mg paraplatin was infused into the serous cavity each time for once or twice a week till the effusion was disappeared or there was no change. Results 76 cases were evaluable for response and toxicity. There were 21 patients with CR, 33 patients with PR and 22 patients with NR. The ORR was 71 %. Among them, the RR in malignant pleural effusion group was 79 %(27/34), 50 %(13/26) in the peritoneal effusion and 87 %(14/16) in the pericardial effusion. Only I ~ II degree bone marrow suppression was observed. Conclusions Paraplatin used within the cavity is more effective and safe for treating malignant serous cavity effusion.

Objective To detect the expressions of apoptosis-related factors and inflammatory cytokines in superficial and deep layers of as well as anagen hair follicles in lesions of early alopecia areata (AA).Methods Scalp biopsy samples were collected from 25 patients with early AA and 15 healthy human controls.Fluorescence-based quantitative PCR was performed to detect mRNA expressions of apoptosis-related genes p53,caspase 3,Fas,survivin and bcl-2,as well as those of inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-4,IL-10,IL-12 and interferon (IFN)-γ.An immunohistochemical assay was conducted to measure the expression of p53 protein in anagen hair follicles.Results Compared with control skin samples,anagen hair follicles in AA lesions showed significantly increased mRNA expression levels (expressed as 2-△△Ct) of pro-apoptotic factors caspase 3,p53 and Fas (6.78,8.01,9.74,respectively,all P ＜ 0.05),but decreased mRNA expression levels of antiapoptotic factors bcl-2 and survivin (0.08 and 0.03 respectively,both P ＜ 0.01),and similar mRNA expression levels of inflammatory cytokines.There was a significant increase in mRNA expression levels of Th1 cytokines IFN-γ and IL-12 (2.75 vs.1.00,P ＜ 0.05; 85.67 vs.1.00,P ＜ 0.01),but a significant decrease in the expression level of the Th2 cytokine IL-10 (0.002 vs.1.000,P ＜ 0.01) in superficial layers of AA lesions compared with those of normal control skin.The degree of changes in mRNA expression levels of IL-10 and IL-12 was significantly higher in superficial layers than in deep layers of AA lesions (P＜0.01 and 0.05 respectively).The immunohistochemical assay showed that the number of p53-positive cells per 100 cells in anagen hair follicles of AA lesions was higher than that in those of control skin (t =23.79,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Anagen hair follicles in AA lesions exhibit high expressions of pro-apoptosis factors,but low expressions of antiapoptotic factors,suggesting that apoptotic factors play a role in the occurrence of AA.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of hydrogen sulfide on myocardial ischemia reperfusion in rats. Methods With sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS) as a donor of hydrogen sulfide ( H2S), we established myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model in rats. The SD rats were randomly divided into control group,myocardial ischemia reperfusion group (I/R group), H2S group,and H2S and glibenclamide (H2S + GLI)group. We monitored the hemodynamics index of rats, including heart rate, arterial pressure, left ventricular pressure. The rate of ventrical arrhythmia was also observed in each group. Results H2 S significantly reduced the ventricular arrhythmia (VA) occurrence (H2S group 66.5% vs I/R group 33.5% (P ＜0.05) and score in myocardial ischemia reperfusion rats (H2S group 2. 6 ±0. 7 vs I/R group 4. 5 ±0. 8(P＜0.05). The KATP channel blocker,glibenclamide,could weaken the antiarrhythmic effects of H2S ( H2S group 2. 6 ±0. 7 vs. H2S + GLI group 4. 0 ± 0. 6, P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusions H2S has the protective effect against myocardial ischemia reperfusion damage. This function may be associated with the KATP signal transduction pathway in cells.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of additional use of Cypate gingival fluid in periodontal basic therapy before surgery in the treatment of pregnancy gingival tumor. METHODS: A total of 86 patients with pregnancy gingival tumor in Second Affiliated Hospital of Qiqihar Medical University during Jan. 2015 to Jan. 2016 were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table, with 43 cases in each group. Control group received ligation and oral micro-electrosurgical surgery according to the volume of tumor. Observation group was given Cypate gingival fluid-based periodontal basic therapy (3-5 mL for gargling, 2-3 min each time, 3-5 times each day, 5 d) and then receive surgery. Clinical efficacies, gingival related indexes (gingival index, sulcular bleeding index, probing depth), quality scores of life, ADR, the occurrence of complications were observed in 2 groups. The followed-up was conducted 1 year after surgery, and the recurrence of gingival tumor was compared between 2 groups. RESULTS: No case was found shedding in the study. The total response rate of observation group was 97. 67％, which was significantly higher than 79. 07％ of control group (P＜0. 05). After treatment, the gingival related indexes of 2 groups were decreased significantly compared to before treatment, while quality scores of life were increased significantly compared to before treatment, observation group was significantly better than control group (P＜0. 05). No severe ADR or complication was found in 2 groups during treatment. Recurrence rate of gingival tumor in observation group was 2. 33％, which was significantly lower than 13. 95％ in control group 1 year after treatment (P＜0. 05). CONCLUSIONS: Compared with surgery alone, additional use of Cypate gingival fluid in periodontal basic therapy before surgery has better clinical efficacy and lower recurrence rate, with good safety.
