Objective: To explore the effect of therapeutic application of pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy under percutaneous nephroscope ultrasound and holmium laser lithotripsy for complex kidney stone. Methods: 124 patients with complex renal calculus were selected and divided into observation group (62 cases) and control group (62 cases) as randomly number table. The patients of observation group were cured by pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy under percutaneous nephroscope ultrasound while patients of control group were cured by holmium laser lithotripsy. A series of correlative indicators, such as some correlative indexes in during and post operation, complication situation of post operation and kidney function, were compared. Results:The differences about bleeding volume during operation and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups were significant (t=12.475, t=7.659, P<0.05). For clearance rate of calculus and incidence of complication, the differences between the two groups were significant (x2=6.048, x2=7.159, P<0.05). And the differences of separation index of renal pelvis collective system, creatinine and urea nitrogen post treatment between the two groups also were significant (t=8.529, t=7.058, t=10.596, P<0.05). Conclusion: Comparing with the traditional holmium laser lithotripsy, the clinical better effect of pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy under percutaneous nephroscope ultrasound for complex renal calculi is significant. Its series of advantages, such as shorter operation time, faster recovery, safer and reliable for patients and lower incidence of postoperative complication and so on, can effectively relieve the renal function for patients.

AIM: To search for new candidate partners of human cell division cycle gene 14A (hCDC 14A) and explore their functional relationships.METHODS: Yeast two-hybrid screening was employed to find hCDC 14A new partners. Physical interaction between two proteins was verified using Pulldown and co-immunoprecipitation assays. Subcellular localizations were revealed by immunofluorescence. In vivo ubiquitination test implied their potential functional relationship.RESULTS: BRAP2 (BRCA1 associated protein 2) was found to be a new candidate partner of hCDC 14A. hCDC 14A was modified by ubiquitination, and BRAP2 increased this modification in vivo. As expected, hCDC 14A and BRAP2 co-localized on mitotic spindles in HeLa cells.CONCLUSION: BRAP2 may be an ubiquitin E3 ligase of hCDC 14A.
