Objective To observe the effect of intravesical chemotherapy in papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) urinary bladder after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt). Methods 44 cases of PUNLMP confirmed by pathological examination from Jan 2004 to Dec 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical manifestation: 24 asymptomatic, 19 gross hematuria and 1 abdominal discomfort. All cases were treated by TUR-Bt and immediately administered by intravesical instillation of 40 mg HCPT once, then 32 cases (A group) underwent additional intravesical instillation of HCPT once, and 12 cases (B group) underwent instillation qw for 8 times. Results PUNLMP cases accouted for 2.28 %(44/1 926) of bladder neoplasms admitted during the same period. There were 32 males and 12 females. 39 patients had multiple tumors, and 5 had single. All of cases were followed up with the medial follow-up time of 82 months (16-136 months), only one case in B group recurred after 14 months, and postoperatively without pathological progression. The difference of recurrence rates between two groups had no statistical significance (P=0.273). Conclusions PUNLMP has low incidence rate and is more common among middle-aging males. Doctors should consider PUNLMP when patients with bladder neoplasm are asymptomatically detected. Immediate instillation combined with additional one postoperatively could reduce the recurrence rate of PUNLMP obviously with satisfying prognosis. However, maintenance instillation does not enhance effect.

Objective To prepared the docetaxel nano liposome (L-DOC) for the therapy of liver cancer HepG2 cells in vitro and in vivo. Methods The film-ultrasonic dispersion method was used to prepare the L-DOC.The diameter and Zeta potential of L-DOC were determined by Nanosizer and the encapsulation efficiency was further measured.CCK-8 method was used to determine the cell viability of HepG2 cell after treating with various concentration of DOC and L-DOC respectively and the cell death type was detected by Flow cytometer.Next, we have studied the relative tumor volume change of tumor-bearing mice and the toxicity in vivo.Results The average diameter of L-DOC was 104 nm and the Zeta potential was about -35.1 mV.The Zeta potential of L-DOC was almost unchanged after standing for 96 hours.The encapsulation efficiency of L-DOC was ( 71.2 ±1.6 )%.The CCK-8 results showed that the cell viability was decreased after treating with various concentration of DOC and L-DOC, but the inhibition effect of L-DOC was better than that of DOC after treating with the same dose, especially for 20μg/mL.It was found that the cell death was induced by apoptosis.The in vivo study results showed that 6mg/kg L-DOC could inhibit the tumor volume better than that of same dose of DOC.In addition, 6mg/kg L-DOC and DOC didn’ t induce in vivo toxicity.Conclusion The L-DOC is prepared by film-ultrasonic dispersion method which has small diameter, great biocompatibility.And it could inhibit the HepG2 cells in vitro and in vivo, especially for no in vivo toxicity.

BACKGROUND: Halofuginone has been proved to ameliorate the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis.OBJECTIVE: To further verify the protective effect of halofuginone on early osteoarthritis.METHODS: Forty-five healthy male C57BL6J mice were randomly divided into three groups (n=15 per group): the mice in sham operation group were only subjected to right knee capsulotomy; in the other two groups, animal models of osteoarthritis were established by cutting off the right anterior cruciate ligament, followed by treated with distilled water (placebo group) or 0.5 mg/kg halofuginone (halofuginone group) via gavage, once daily beginning at 3 days after modeling. Twenty-eight days after treatment, all mice were sacrificed and the right knee was removed. The morphology and structure of the joint tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and safranin fast green staining; the expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was detected by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The structure of articular cartilage in the sham operation group was normal, the cells arranged in neat rows, and the articular surface was not worn. In the placebo group, the articular cartilage layer became thinner, the cartilage surface was worn and even fragmented, and cells arranged in disorder. In the halofuginone group,the cartilage cell layer was clear and tidy, with regular cell morphology. The hyaline cartilage thickness and hyaline cartilage thickness/calcified cartilage thickness were ranked as follows: sham operation group > halofuginone group >placebo group. The calcified cartilage thickness was the highest in the placebo group, followed by halofuginone group,and lowest in the sham operation group. Osteoarthritis Research Society International scores and TGF-β1 positive cells/chondrocytes in the halofuginone group were significantly lower than those in the placebo group, and all above indices showed significant differences among groups (P < 0.05). These results suggest that halofuginone via gavage can partially prevent articular cartilage degeneration in early osteoarthritis mice probably by downregulating the expression of TGF-β1, thus delaying the progression of osteoarthritis.

Objective To study the effects of different temporal resolution of spiral computed tomography (CT)on perfusion parameters and perfusion curve of cervical cervical cancer.Methods Ten cases of cervical cancer were clinically confirmed with CT perfusion scanning.The original data were acquired using temporal resolution of 0.75 s.Then the original data were grouped according to different temporal resolution,namely,1.5 s group,2.25 s group,3 s group,3.75 s group,4.5 s group,5.25 s group,and 6 s group (experiment group). According to the same mathematical model and ROI of the same part,perfusion parameters (BF,BV,MTT,and PS)in each group were calculated respectively and compared with the original data.Results BF and MTT were relatively sensitive to the change of temporal resolution.When the temporal resolution was 3 s,it had a significant impact.PS and BV were not so sensitive to the change of temporal resolution.Temporal resolution of 4.5 s had a significant effect on PS. There was a significant effect on BV until the temporal resolution was 5.25 s. Conclusion Changing the temporal resolution will lead to corresponding changes of perfusion curve and perfusion parameters.Under the premise that it does not affect the diagnosis,properly decreasing temporal resolution (circu-lar scanning temporal ≤2.25 s)of CT perfusion scanning of cervical cancer can reduce the radiation dose effectively.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence,and the factors that influence depressive symptoms among chronic respiratory disease patients in tertiary hospital.Methods:A total of 1713 outpatients and inpatients with chronic respiratory disease were selected from 8 tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu Province from July to September,2014 and screened according to the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale-D (HADS-D).A questionnaire developed by this research group,was used to collect demographic and clinical information.Logistic regression was used to identify factors that were associated with depressive symptoms.Results:The overall rate of depressive symptoms was 46.0％.Multiple logistic analysis showed that spinsterhood (OR ＝ 0.45),higher education level (middle school /high school/technical school OR ＝0.65;college degree or aboveOR ＝0.28),BMI ≥24 (OR ＝0.71) were associated with decreased risk of depressive symptoms (P ＜ 0.05).B MI ＜ 18.5 (OR ＝ 1.52,),average income of family ≥10000 RMB (OR ＝ 1.37-1.96),limited daily activities (OR ＝ 1.72),poorer sleep quality (OR ＝ 1.45),and negative life events (OR ＝ 1.62) were associated with increased risk of depressive symptoms (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:The prevalence of depressive symptoms among chronic respiratory disease patients in tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu Province was higher.Marital status,education level,income,BMI,limited daily activities,subjective sleep quality,negative life events may be the related factors of depressive symptoms of chronic respiratory diseases patients.

Keloid is a disease that is difficult to cure and has a high recurrence rate. In the past, research on keloid focused on keloid cells themselves and the therapeutic strategy limited to local treatment, whereas the role of systemic factors in the process of occurrence and development of disease was usually neglected. Based on the literature reports and clinical evidence, we propose that the pro-inflammatory constitution of keloid patients can serve as a systemic factor to interact with local factors such as skin lesion, and thus leads to the initiation and development of keloid. The classical theory about close relationship between visceral malfunctions and skin diseases described in traditional Chinese medicine has provided supporting evidence. Therefore, we suggest that systemic anti-inflammatory therapy should be included in the design of future keloid therapeutic strategies and be verified by the clinical trials. Additionally, the therapeutic strategies of traditional Chinese medicine including anti-dampness, detoxing and heating removing can also be employed as a part of systemic treatment of keloids.

Objective To observe the value of 3.0T multimodal MRI for preoperative evaluation of T stage and therapeutic efficacy of neoadjuvant for rectal cancer.Methods 3.0T multimodal MRI data,including T1WI,T2WI/diffusion weighted imaging(DWI),dynamic contrast enhanced MRI(DCE-MRI)and intravoxel incoherent motion DWI(IVIM-DWI)of 150 patients with rectal cancer were retrospectively analyzed,and the value of different sequences for evaluating T stage and therapeutic efficacy of neoadjuvant for rectal cancer were assessed.Results The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of T1WI,T2WI/DWI,DCE-MRI and IVIM-DWI for evaluating T1-T2 and T3-T4 stage rectal cancer were all significantly different(all P＜0.05).The diagnostic efficacy of DCE-MRI and IVIM-DWI were all higher than that of T1WI and T2WI/DWI(all P＜0.05).Combination evaluation of DCE-MRI and IVIM-DWI for T stage of rectal cancer had good consistency with pathological results(Kappa=0.943,P＜0.05).Significant differences of volume transfer constant(Ktrans),true diffusion coefficient(D)and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)were found among different T stage rectal cancers(all P＜0.05).Totally 80 patients received neoadjuvant therapy,and significant differences of Ktrans,D and ADC were noticed between patients with good(n=32)or poor efficacy(n=48)(all P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of Ktrans,D and ADC for evaluating therapeutic efficacy of neoadjuvant for rectal cancer was 0.774,0.837 and 0.758,respectively,of the combination of above three was 0.929,higher than that of single indexes(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Combination of 3.0T DCE-MRI and IVIM-DWI was helpful for preoperative evaluating T stage and therapeutic efficacy of neoadjuvant for rectal cancer.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcomes of combined complete preservation of chordal structure mitral valve replacement (C-MVR) with total anatomical arterial myocardial revascularization (TACR) in coronary patients with moderate-to-severe or severe ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR).Methods:This is a retrospective multi-center case series study. Data were retrospectively collected from 127 patients with coronary artery disease with moderate to severe or severe IMR who received TACR with C-MVR from July 2015 to April 2024 in 13 hospitals in China. There were 90 males and 37 females, aged (56.5±10.7) years (range: 33 to 74 years). Perioperative data and follow-up data including left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, and patency rate of arterial grafts of patients were collected. Comparisons were made using paired sample t-test or χ2 test. Results:In this cohort of 127 patients, 67 underwent concurrent tricuspid valve repair. During surgery, 113 grafts of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA), 127 grafts of the left radial artery, 80 grafts of the right radial artery, and 110 grafts of the right internal mammary artery (RIMA) were harvested. The number of the distal anastomosis was 4.2±0.4 (range: 3 to 5). The aortic cross-clamp time and cardiopulmonary bypass time were (97.5±23.4) minutes (range: 90 to 161 minutes) and (145.4±19.2) minutes (range: 101 to 210 minutes), respectively. There was one operative death. Intraoperative placement of an intra-aortic balloon pump was performed in 21 patients to improve the left ventricular ejection. No sternal ischemic occurred. All patients completed follow-up, with a mean follow-up period of (64.3±7.5) months (range: 4 to 110 months). No major cerebrovascular events occurred during the follow-up period, and all patients survived. Left ventricular ejection fraction improved postoperatively (55.0%±5.3% vs. 41.0%±15.3%, t=17.23, P<0.01). The proportion of patients with New York Heart Association functional class ≤2 increased postoperatively (23.6% (30/127) vs. 87.3% (110/126), χ2=103.77, P<0.01). The proportion of patients with Canadian Cardiovascular Society Angina Classification ≤3 decreased postoperatively (4.8% (6/126) vs. 78.7% (100/127), χ2=142.19, P<0.01). The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter decreased postoperatively ((5.70±4.50) cm vs. (6.10±0.23) cm, t=12.15, P<0.01). Coronary multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) follow-up was conducted for (60.5±11.7) months (range: 6 to 109 months) postoperatively. MDCTA confirmed the patency rates of the grafts: 96.4% (108/112) for the LIMA grafts, 88.9% (112/126) for the left radial artery grafts, 93.7% (74/79) for the right radial artery grafts, and 90.9% (100/110) for the free RIMA grafts. No significant differences in graft patency rates were observed between the arterial grafts ( χ2=5.24, P=0.155). Conclusion:The results of this multi-centre study demonstrate satisfactory mid-term results of C-MVR with TACR for the treatment of coronary artery disease with moderate to severe or severe IMR.
