Objective To evaluate the effect of desflurane on blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery (VmMCA) and cerebrospinal fluid pressure (CSFP).Methods Sixty patients were randomly assigned to two groups. In group A,the anesthesia was maintained with desflurane, and in group B, with isoflurane. In either group, patients were allocated to three subgroups according to different doses(05,08,1.1MAC). CSFP was measured through a lumbar subarachnoid catheter before surgical procedures,from induction to administration of the inhalational agent for 45min.VmMCA was measured by transcranial Doppler at baseline , postintubation and administration of agent for 45min. Results As compared with baseline,CSFP increased gradually and reached to 16.90?4.01mmHg in subgroup 1.1MAC of group A (P0.05). Compared with baseline, VmMCA increased significantly at 45th min following administration of agent in subgroup 11MAC of group A(P005). In group A , a significant parallel correlation existed between the MAC levels and the values of VmMCA or CSFP (r=0.52,P

Objective To confirm whether the open-ended coaxial line is effective in detection of the differences in dielectric properties between colorectal cancer tissues and surrounding normal tissues and evaluation of the depth of tumor invasion. Methods The open-ended coaxial line system at frequencies ranging from 50 to 500 MHz in 98 freshly excised colorectal cancerous specimens obtained from the operating theatre of Zhujiang Hospital, was used to detect both the relative permittivity and conductivity on the serosal surface of the carcinoma nidus, the mucosa of the carcinoma nidus, and the mucosa of the surgical resection margin. Pathological examinations were conducted on each specimen after surgery. Results The values for relative permittivity and conductivity of the colorectal cancerous mucosa were significantly higher than those of the normal mucosa (P < 0.01). For the tumor which had invaded or penetrated the serosa (stage ≥ T3), the dielectric properties of both the cancerous serosa and mucosa were higher than the one restricted to muscularis propria or less intestine wall (stage < T3) over the measured frequency range, and there existed statistical differences at the common frequencies of 213 MHz and 426 MHz. Conclusion The open-ended coaxial line system may result in fast and effective diagnostic differentiation between cancerous and normal colorectal tissues as well as reasonable assessment of the tumor infiltration depth.

We studied the regulatory effects of the estragen receptorbeta (ERbeta) gene on the downstream estrogen signal transfection pathway in colon cancer cells and the possible mechanisms involved. A human ERbeta gene recombinant expression plasmid, pEGFP-C1-ERbeta, was constructed and transfected into the Caco-2 colon cancer cell line, a line with low ERbeta gene expression. The expression of ERbeta mRNA and protein was detected 72 h after transfection. RT-PCR was used to examine the expression levels of the progesterone recepror (PR) gene containing the classic estrogen response element (ERE), the C-fos oncogene containing the AP-1 site (a non-classical ER binding site), the epigenetic modifying genes, such as Dnmt1, Dnmt3a, Dnmt3b, and histone methyltransferase (HMT), and the human mismatch repair gene hMLH1. Methylation-specific PCR was used to detect the changes in the methylated sites of the CpG islands in the promoters of the ERbeta, PR, and C-fos genes. The results indicated that the human ERbeta gene recombinant expression plasmid pEGFP-C1-ERbeta was successfully constructed and transfected into Caco-2 cells. As compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expression of ERbeta gene was increased significantly 72 h after the transfection of pEGFP-C1-ERbeta into the Caco-2 cells. As compared with the control group, the mRNA expression of the PR, C-fos, Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b genes was increased significantly 72 h after the transfection of pEGFP-C1-ERbeta into the Caco-2 cells, but the mRNA expression of the Dnmt1, HMT, and hMLH1 genes decreased significantly (P<0.05). As compared with the control group, different degrees of demethylation occurred in the promoters of the ERbeta, progesterone receptor (PR), and C-fos oncogene 72 h after the transfection of pEGFP-C1-ERbeta into the Caco-2 cells. The methylation index of the estrogen signal transfection pathway in Caco-2 cells was decreased significantly following the expression restoration of ERbeta gene (P<0.05). It is concluded that the restoration or up-regulation of the ERbeta gene in Caco-2 cells may significantly activate the expression of the related target genes in the downstream estrogen signal transfection pathway and may result in the demethylation changes of the pathway. During the process, the expression level and activity of the epigenetic modifying genes and the human mismatch repair gene have changed simultaneously. The regulatory effect of the ERbeta gene on the estrogen signal transfection pathway to a certain extent partly involves demethylation.

Objective To evaluate MRI in the diagnosis of the bone contusion of the knee joint and its clinical significance.Methods Using special coil for knee joint,coronal,sagittal,axial and oblique sagittal plane scanning with fast spin-echo sequence(T_1WI,T_2WI,PDWI+FS)was performed on knee joint in 205 patients in three days after injury.According the distributing bone marrow edema and injury mechanism,bone contusion were classified five types as pivot shift injury,clip injury,dashboard injury, hyperextension injury and lateral patellar dislocation.Results One hundred and forty-five cases of the 205 patients were found bone marrow edema without fracture on X-ray films.Among them,pivot shift injury was found in 43 cases accompanied with anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 30 cases,tear of the posterior horn of the lateral or medial meniscus in 12 and tears of the medial collateral ligament in 8 cases;clip injury in 53 cases accompanied with anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 10 cases,tear of the posterior horn of the lateral or medial meniscus in 15 and tears of the medial collateral ligament in 38 cases;dashboard injury 40 cases accompanied with posterior cruciate ligament rupture in 16 cases,hyperextension injury 9 cases accompanied with anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 2 cases,posterior cruciate ligament rupture in 5 cases.No lateral patellar dislocation was found.Forty-eight of 145 patients had undergone arthroscopy, 43 cases(89.6%)of them were in accordance with MRI diagnosis.Bone contusion were defined as geographic regions of abnormal signal intensity,that is,low signal intensity in T_1-weighted images and high signal intensity in PD-weighted or T_2-weigeted images with fat saturation.Conclusion MRI can accurately display the location and area of bone contusion of the knee joint as well as its adjunctive structure injury and deduce their injury mechanism.MRI should be used routinely for knee trauma.
