Erectile dysfunction was one of the most frequently postoperative complications after radical prostatectomy,which has been deeply concentrated by patients and urologists,along with more and more people were diagnosed as localized prostate cancer.Widely being used for erectile dysfunction after radical prostatectomy,the efficacy and safety of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors have been confirmed by many clinical studies.However,the influences of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors on the occurrence and progression of cancer are still not completely revealed at present.Additionally,the efficiency of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors on biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomny is still controversial,though it has been demonstrated that phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors is not associated with the occunrence of prostate cancer based on recent clinical studies.We will review the possibly mechanisms of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors in oncologic occurrence,especially in the occurrence of prostate cancer and its biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy.

There is a close relationship between high trans fatty acids intake and occurrence of metabolic syndrome. Trans fatty acids intake may lead to metabolic disorders. It affects lipid level, induces visceral obesity and insulin resistance, triggers systemic inflammation, and significantly increases cardiometabolic risks. If the chain of trans fatty acids-metabolic syndrome-cardiovascular disease is understood, a new effective way to prevent metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular events may be provided.

Objective To present 3 cases of neurilemmoma of adrenal gland. Methods The clinical pathological manifestations,diagnosis and treatment of 3 cases of neurilemmoma of adrenal gland were reviewed. Results Tumor resection was undertaken in all the three and the diagnosis was assessed on pathological study. All the 3 patients have been in good condition and tumor free on 3～5 years of follow up. Conclusions Tumor resection is the treatment of choice with good prognosis.Radiotherapy may be considered as an adjuvant treatment for malignant ones.Definite diagnosis depends on pathological studies.

[Objective]To improve the preparative method of catilage derived microcarrier and evaluate the micromechanism and biocompatibility of this metarial for injectable tissue engineering cartilage.[Methods]Fresh porcine articular cartilage were obtained and shattered in the iso-osmia liquid in 4℃.After gradient centrifugation,150-300 ?m size cartilage micelles were gathered and were subjected to 1% Triton X-100 once and physiological saline twicely.The structure of specimens were observed and assessed by inverted phase contrast microscopy,environmental scanning electron microscope.And the composition of these specimens were stained with haematoxylin-eosin,safranin-O,toluidine blue and immunohistochemistry of collagen type Ⅱ.The microcarriers were seeded with rabbit bone mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) and cocultured with Rotary Cell Culture System(Rotary Cell Culture System,RCCS TM).[Results]The cartilage particles had fiocculus apparence.There were numerous villus on the surface of these cartilage micelles,which were stained positive with the immunohistochemistry of collagen type Ⅱ.The inner part of these cartilage micelles were stained positively with safranin-O and toluidine blue.After coated with BMSCs and cultured in the RCCSTM,the cells grew well on the surface of the cartilage micelles and the latter could be disperse again after blowed with pipette.[Conclusion]The cartilage micelles,which have large surface area and good boicompatibility,is a new kind of microcarrier for injectable tissue engineering cartilage.

Objective To study the expressions of phosphatese and tensin homolog deletedin chromosom ten (PTEN),Fas/FasL system and matrix metalloproteinnases-2 (MMP-2) in human gastric cancer.Methods Seventy-five cases of gastric carcinoma were selected from paraffin wax embodied specimens with full clinicopathological data,and another 15 cases of normal gastric mucosa specimens were selected as the control group.SP immunohistochemistry was used to measure the expressions of PTEN,Fas/FasL and MMP-2 in them.The data was statistically analyzed by ?2 test and relative analysis.Results The expressions of PTEN,Fas/FasL and MMP-2 were correlated with the lymphatic metastasis,degree of infiltration,clinical TMN stage and pathological histological differentiated degree of gastric cancer (P

Aim To study the protective effect of caffeic acid on brain damage induced by chronic aluminum overload in rats.Methods The brain injury model of rats was established via intragastric administration of aluminum gluconate(element aluminum 200 mg?kg-1) once a day,5 d a week for 20 weeks.The 5-LO inhibitor caffeic acid(30 mg?kg-1,10 mg?kg-1) was intragastrically administered 1 h after aluminum administration.Pathomorphological changes of hippocampal neuron and the spatial learning and memory function were observed.The MAO-B,AChE and SOD activities,and the MDA contents of brain tissue in rats were measured.Results Chronic aluminum overload could markedly induce spatial learning and memory function impairment,and hippocampal neuronal injury in rats.The MAO-B and AChE activities,and the MDA content significantly increased,while SOD activities significantly decreased in chronic aluminum overload rats.The administration of the caffeic acid can significantly prevent rats from learning and memory function impairments and hippocampal neuronal death,and blunted the decrease of SOD activities and increased MDA contents induced by chronic aluminum overload in rats.Caffeic acid also obviously decreased the MAO-B activities and AChE activities of chronic aluminum overload rats.Conclusion Administration of caffeic acid can prevent the rat brain from damage induced by chronic aluminum overload.

Objective To analyze the diagnosis of variant acute myocardial infarction.Methods Clinical datas were retrospectively analyzed in 27 cases with variant acute myocardial infarction.Results 27 patients were diagnosed with myodial infarction by ECG and myocardial enzymea.Conclusion Variant acute myocardial infarction is often misdiagnosed as acute abdomen,cerebral aarterial infarction the disease of neck.but its clinical manifestation especially ECG and myocardial enzymes are changeable,and it needs full analysis,early diagnosis and therapy.
