Objective: To determine the efficacy of lobectomy and wedge resection in the management of early stage (T 1N 0M 0) non small cell lung cancer. Methods: We analyzed the results of 109 patients with pathologic stage (T 1N 0M 0) non small cell lung cancer who underwent open wedge resection (n=21), video assisted wedge resection (n=30), and lobectomy (n=58) to assess perioperative morbidity and mortality, recurrence rates, survival difference and late pulmonary function among the three groups. Results: There were no differences among the three groups in regard to histologic tumor type, perioperative morbidity and mortality, late pulmonary function. Analysis demonstrated the wedge resection groups to be significantly older and to have reduced pulmonary function despite a higher incidence of treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease when compared with patients having lobectomy. Statistically, the mean hospital stay was significantly less and locoregional recurrences rate higher in the wedge resection groups. Kaplan Meier survival curves were nearly identical at 1 year (open wedge resection, 94%; video assisted wedge resection, 95%; lobectomy, 91%). 5 year survival was 58%, 65% and 70% respectively. Log rank testing demonstrated significant differences between the survival curves during the 5 year period of study (P=0.02). Conclusion: Wedge resection, done by thoracotomy or video assisted techniques, appears to be a viable surgical treatment of stageⅠ(T 1N 0M 0) non small cell lung cancer for patients with cardiopulmonary physiologic impairment. Because of the increased risk for local recurrence, anatomic lobectomy remains the surgical treatment of choice for patients with stage I non small cell lung cancer who have adequate physiologic reserve.

Objective To assess the effect of a noninvasive equipment (the human biological stimulation feedback instrument) for the screening of metabolic syndrome (MS). Methods The samples were selected from the International Health Care Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University College of Medicine. From January to December 2012, according to the inclusion criteria, a total of 5674 consecutive participants (3 437 men, 2 237 women) without medical history of diabetes mellitus underwent general health screening in this hospital, which included questionnaire investigation, all MS components and the risk assessment of the human biological stimulation feedback instrument. MS was defined according to 2004 the Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS) criteria. Results The 5 674 subjects were divided into three groups in accordance with the human biological stimulation feedback instrument risk score: the normal group, metabolic abnormalities low risk group, metabolic abnormalities high risk group. The detection rate of MS corresponding to the three groups was 8.73% (251/2 876), 29.32% (612/2 087), 32.77% (233/711), respectively (trend χ2=372.14,P<0.001). With the increase of risk score, the detection rate of MS increased. A total of 1 096 (male 879, female 217) were diagnosed MS by CDS criteria. The area under the curve (AUC) of the test was 0.674 (95%CI 0.658-0.691, P<0.000 1)for predicting MS. The corresponding cutoff value was 25.00%, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of diagnosis of MS was 77.80%, 56.00%, 30.20%and 91.30%, respectively;409 subjects who had no history of MS and diabetes mellitus follow up for two years, the AUC of the test was 0.719 (95%CI 0.644-0.794)for predicting MS. The corresponding cutoff value was 25.00%, too. And the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis of MS was 78.00%and 59.80%, respectively. The detection rate of MS was positively correlated with the risk score. Conclusion We found that the human biological stimulation feedback instrument is a potential screening approach for early predicting MS in health checkup with simple and noninvasive procedure and high negative predictive value, although its diagnostic efficiency is not so good. And it might have a warning effect on the progress of MS.

Objective To investigate the sleep features in the patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and compare the sleep quality between those IBS patients who were with and without anxiety and depression.Methods Pittsburgh sleep quality index questionnaire (PSQI), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were measured in the 145 IBS patients and 59 regular physical examination volunteers.IBS patients were also divided into two subgroups-patients with or without anxiety and depression based on cutoff scores of SAS and SDS.Comparisons of sleep quality were made between subgroups, and between IBS patients and volunteer controls.Results Compared with the controls,the SAS raw score, SDS raw score and SAS positive incidence in IBS patients were shown statistically significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 ), while the SDS positive incidence had no statistically significant difference(P ＞ 0.05 ).PSQI total scores were significantly higher in the IBS patients without anxiety and depression (P ＜ 0.05), 3 domains (sleep quality, sleep disturbances and daytime function disorder) were also found statistically significant differences ( P ＜ 0.05 ), compared with the controls.The IBS patients with anxiety and depression were statistically significantly different from the controls ( P ＜ 0.05 ) in 6 domains (sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbances, sleep time and daytime function disorder) and significantly higher PSQI total scores( P ＜ 0.05 ).Statistically significant differences (P ＜0.05) were also found in all 7 domains and with higher PSQI total scores in IBS patients with anxiety and depression, compared with IBS patients without anxiety and depression.Conclusions IBS patients were more likely to have sleep abnormality, mainly in sleep quality, sleep disturbances and daytime function disorder and PSQI total scores.The abnormalities of these factors were independent of emotional disorder.However, emotional disorder worsened the sleep disorder in IBS patients.

Objective To compare the effects of rib internal fixation and thoracic external fixation in treatment of traumatic flail chest. Methods Eighty six cases of traumatic flail chest with multiple injuries,admitted to hospital from January 2006 to June 2009 ,were recruited into the study and divided into rib internal fixation and thoracic external fixation groups randomly. The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Rib internal fixations with Ti-Ni shape memory alloy embracing connector were performed in internal-fixation group(n = 45) and thoracic external fixations were performed in external-fixation group(n = 41). The outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results No patient in internal-fixation group developed chest wall deformity,while 19 patients in external-fixation group had chest wall deformity left. The mean times of hospital stay([ 15. 1 ± 1.8]d vs [22. 9 ±2. 8]d,t = - 15. 724,P ＜0. 01) ,ICU stay([5.7 ± 1.5]d vs [ 14. 4 ±2. 9]d,t =- 17.711, P ＜ 0. 01), and mechanical ventilation([ 3.9 ± 1.5 ] d vs [ 1 1.6 ± 2. 3 ] d, t = - 17. 256, P ＜ 0. 01),in internal-fixation group were significantly shorter than those in external-fixation group. The occurrence rate of respiratory complications (including pulmonary inflammation and (or) atelectasis and (or) respiratory failure)in internal-fixation group was significantly lower than those in external-fixation group(35.6% vs. 70. 7% ,x2 =10.641,P ＜ 0.01). Followed-up data of three months after discharge showed that the pulmonary function parameters, such as total lung capacity([ 89. 5 ± 3. 1 ] % vs. [ 79. 1 ± 5. 1 ] %, t = 11. 705, P ＜ 0. 01), forced vital capacity([ 80. 2 ± 2. 8 ] % vs. [ 69. 8 ± 3. 8 ] % ,t = 14. 241 ,P ＜0. 01) ,forced expiratory volume in the 1st second ([74.8 ±4.4]% vs. [71.9 ±3.6]% ,t =3.201,P ＜0.01),peak expiratory flow ([82.8 ±4.4]%vs. [79. 8 ±4. 9]% ,t =2. 885,P ＜0. 01) and forced expiratory flows at 75% of the vital capacity( [68.2 ±2. 2] % vs. [61.9 ± 2. 9 ]%, t = 11. 286; P ＜ 0. 01) were significantly higher in internal-fixation group than those in external-fixation group. Conclusion Rib internal fixation for traumatic flail chest can quickly correct chest wall deformity, stabilize thoracis and eliminate paradoxical chest wall movement. Patients accepted this treatment have a shorter therapy process during the intensive care unit and hospital stay, less pulmonary complications. They also show less long-term restrictive pulmonary functions impairment, when compared to the patients in the thoracic external fixation group. Rib internal fixation with Ti-Ni shape memory alloy embracing connector is a simple and effective therapy.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of surgical treatment of malignant tra-cheal tumor.Methods Two hundred and fifty-eight medical charts about surgical treatment of malignant tracheal tumor between July 1980 and July 2007 were retrospectively reviewed.The main histological type were adenoid cystic carcinoma (104/258) and squamous cell carcinoma (93/258).Operative methods in-cluded circumferential resection end to end anastomosis of trachea (n=157),carinal resection and re-construetion (n=51),sleeve pneumonectomy(n=22),windowing removal(n=23),tracheal allotrans-plantation(n=2),circumferential reflection and anastomosis of trachea with assistance of extracorporeal cir-culation (n=3).Results No patient died from operation in the 258 cases,and the overall 5-and 10-year survival rates were 64.O%(165/258)and 58.1%(150/258),respectively.The morbidity rate was 5.4%(14/258).Conclusiom Surgical excision is the most effective treatment of malimmnt tracheal tumor.Tracheal resection and carinal reflection are the main operative methods in the treatment of malignant tracheal tumor.Decreasing operative complications is the key of successfully surgical treatment.

BACKGROUND:Tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein-8 like-2 (TIPE2), an anti-inflammatory protein, through the T cel receptor (TCR) and TOLL-like receptor signaling pathway, implements negative regulation of adaptive immunity and innate immunity, and thus effectively maintains the stable internal environment of the body.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of transplanting autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) at different time point after myocardial infarction on cardiac function, and to approach its mechanism. METHODS: Thirty healthy Taihu Meishan swine were prepared for myocardial infarction models, and divided into 6 experimental groups, with 5 animals in each group. BMSCs were transplanted into 3 groups through coronary artery at 3 hours, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after myocardial infarction, named G1, G2 and G4, respectively. Meantime, DMEM culture medium was injected in the control group at correspond periods. Each swine was examined by MRI and Doppler before infarction, before transplantation, and at 8 weeks after infarction, respectively, to observe the change of cardiac function. The VEGF values of blood serum in different periods after transplantation were detected. All swine hearts were harvested after 8 weeks (the experimental terminus), and the planting and differentiation of transplanted cells in cardiac muscle were detected by the method of immunity histochemistry. The density of blood vessels in cardiac muscle was acquired simultaneously. RESULTS: There was no statistic difference of cardiac function between G1 and its control groups. The groups of G2 and G4 could improve cardiac function compared to the control groups, and G4 was superior to G2 (P < 0.05). There was no statistics difference of the decreased absolute value of myocardial infarcted area between G1 and the control groups. The myocardial infarcted area of G4 was greater than G2 (P < 0.05). The value of blood serum VEGF rose obviously in the G2 and G4, while G1 and all control groups did not present any marked changes, the rising amplitude of G4 was larger than G2 (P < 0.05). There were not any planting and differentiation of transplanted stem cells in G1 and all control groups at 8 weeks after infarction, but G2 and G4 could display, especially in G4 group (P < 0.05). There was no statistic difference of the density of blood vessels in cardiac muscle between G1 and all control groups at 8 weeks after infarction, but the differences were significant in all experimental groups, which was superior in G4 group to G1 and G2 groups (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: There is disparity of transplanting BMSCs at different time point after myocardial infarction on cardiac function. Transplantation in acute period of myocardial infarction has no significant effect, but transplantation in non-acute period can ameliorate cardiac function. The therapeutic effect of transplanted at 4 weeks is superior to other time point. The MRI can display the location and compass of infarct cardiac muscle, and reflect the variation of cardiac function.

Background and purpose: Multidrug resistance (MDR) of tumor cell is the main reason for clinical chemotherapy failure as well as cancer recurrence and metastasis. This study was to construct a lentiveral vector of RNA interference of MDR1 gene and observe its inhibitive role on the expression of MDR1 in A549 and A549/DDP cells. Methods: Oligos of base pairs for hairpin RNA targeting MDR1 were chemically synthesized. Via annealing and inserting them into the down-stream of H1 promoter of linearized pSUPER, we obtained the siRNA constructs for MDR1, which were afterwards transfected into A549, a human lung cancer cell line expressing high level MDR1, the impact of constructs was observed on the expression and interference efficiency of siRNA against MDR1. The effective sequence of siRNA targeting MDR1 gene was confirmed. Both sense and antisence oligo DNA of the targeting sequence was designed, synthesized and cloned into the PTM vector, containing a promoter and a green fluorescent protein (GFP). The resulting lentiviral vector containing MDR1 siRNA was named PTM-siMDR1 and then transfected into A549 and A549/DDP cells after being confirmed by PCR and sequencing. Results: Restriction digestion and DNA sequencing showed that the siRNA constructs for MDR1 were successfully produced and the expressed siRNA could effectively down-regnlate the expression of MDRI. PCR demonstrated that the lentivirus RNAi vector of MDR1 producing PTM-siMDR1 was constructed successfully. The chemosensitivity of A549/DDP cells to cisplatin were enhanced obviously after trartsfection. Conclusion: The lentivirus RNAi vector of MDR1 can significantly revise the resistance ofA549/ DDP cells with eisplatin after infection.
