Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of lauromacrogol injection sclerotherapy with ethanol injection sclerotherapy in treating simple liver cysts. Methods A total of 166 patients with simple liver cyst were randomly divided into the lauromacrogol group (study group, n=86) and the absolute alcohol group (control group, n=80). Under ultrasonographic guidance, puncture aspiration of liver cyst was carried out in all patients, which was followed by injection of lauromacrogol for patients in the study group or injection of ethanol for patients in the control group. The therapeutic effect and the side-effect were evaluated. The results were compared between the two groups. Results No serious complications such as bleeding or infection occurred in both groups. During the therapeutic course , 45 patients (56.3%) in the control group felt pain to some degree and 23 patients (28.8%) developed drunk-like symptoms, while no patient in the study group felt any obvious discomfort. One week after sclerotherapy , 20 patients (25%) in the control group complained of distending pain on the right upper abdomen, while only 9 patients (10.5%) in the study group complained of pain, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2= 6.073, P < 0.05). Six months after the treatment, the cure rate of the study group and the control group was 95.7%and 93.5%respectively, and the difference between the two groups was no significant (P > 0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of liver cysts, lauromacrogol injection is safe and effective. Therefore, this technique should be recommended in clinical practice.

Owing to the increasing morbidity and pulmonary infection,management of pulmonary function has become an important problem for COPD patients who undergo surgery.Surgical patient with respiratory disease such as COPD has declined lung function before operation,then increased the risk of post-operative pulmonary complications.Ipratropium bromide can significantly improve pulmonary function.Therefore,we hypothesis the treatment with nebulized ipratropium bromide will benefit the perioperative patients with COPD.A randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled,parallel-group,multi-center trial (Ipratropium bromide in Peri-Operative COPD study,IPO-COPD study)has been conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nebulized ipratropium bromide in Chinese perioperative patients with COPD under general anaesthesia.A total of 192 COPD patients who satisfied the eligibility criteria were randomly assigned(1∶1) to one of the two treatment groups(ipratropium bromide 500 μg or normal saline 4 ml) for 11 days.Measurements will include the change of the forced expiratory volume in 1 second(FEV1),the forced vital capacity(FVC),blood gas analyses and main post-operative pulmonary complications.

Objective:To summarize the experiences of the surgical treatment of tumors in the posterior part of the third ventricle and pineal region. Methods: Twenty-seven patients with tumors in this region treated microsurgically from 1990 to 2000 were analyzed. The surgical indications, approaches, and operative key points were discussed. The prognostic factors were also analyzed. Results:Tumors were removed totally in 11 patients, removed subtotally in 7 and removed partially in 5. Biopsy and ventriculo-peritoneal shunt was performed in 4 patients. Of 17 patients in follow-up, 13 patients survived longer than 5 years. Conclusions: Most tumors in the posterior part of the third ventricle and pineal region can be surgically removed.Sufficient specimen obtained in the operation can confirm pathologic property of the tumor,guiding next chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Objective To apply electrical impedance tnmography that is a new evaluation ap-proach to monitor the development of retroperitoneal injury. We used retroperitoneal inject blood model in pigs to study the feasibility on monitoring retroperitoneal bleeding and to provide premise in theory and practice for clinical application. Methods Five pigs were used on the experiment. We insert a vessel into the retroperitoneal and inject blood to simulate retroperitoneal bleeding. Sixteen electrodes were atta-ched on the abdominal region circumference of pigs and used for electrical current injection and surface voltage measurement. Then the monitoring images were performed by electrical impedance tomography. Results The images of electrical impedance tomography retroperitoneal inject blood model of five pigs were clear, the minimal impedance scale was decreasing significantly as the bleeding volume increasing and the images were changed significantly too. The computerized tomography and the dissecting results confirmed the blood was limited in retroperitoneal. Conclusions The establishments of pigs retroper-itoneal inject blood model was successful. The images of electrical impedance tomography retroperitoneal inject blood model were clear with significant contrast. It's feasible to use electrical impedance tomography system to monitor the retroperitoneal bleeding. This technique may become a useful tool for monitoring ret-roperitoneal injury in intensive care patients.

Induced the mouse embryonic stem(ES)cells into neural cells on silk fibroin via the improved 4-/4+ RA method to explore the effect of the silk fibroin to the ES-derived neurons' growth,adherence and differentiation.Suspended the ES cells into EBs and then transferred them to three different substrates-coated 35 mm dishes including gelatin,Bombyx mori silk fibroin(SF) and Tussah silk fibroin(TSF) to identify the adherence and proportion of ES cells-derived neurons under these three substrates.The results showed that the EBs adhered to the gelatin and TSF are faster than to the SF.The average adhesive rate on gelatin and TSF are 90.3% and 84.4% respectively,and only 38.5% on SF,all the proportion of ?-Ⅲ-Tubulin positive cells is approximately 40%.It may provide important experimental information for tissue engineering,in which ES cells-derived neuron cells and silk fibroin materials are scaffolds,and also offer a source for cell therapy research of neurodegenerative disease.

ObjectiveTo investigate the concentration of water fluoride and the application of water defluoridation projects in Suizhou,and to provide a basis for water improvement and prevention of the disease.MethodsCross-sectional study was carried out to investigate completely the water defluoridation projects built between 1986 and 2009 in the area under Suizhou's jurisdiction; 3 source water and terminal water samples of the projects in use were collected,respectively; 1 water sample was collected,respectively in the 3 projects with out-ofcommission or discarded water sources that used to be major water supply,for detection of fluoride,chloride,total hardness,heavy metals and other indicators.ResultsA total of 21 projects were investigated,14 projects were in normal use (66.7%),7 projects were out of order and abandoned (33.3%).Of the 14 projects normally used,13projects with water fluoride concentration ≤ 1.0 mg/L(92.9%)and 1 project with water fluoride concentration higher than 1.0 mg/L(7.1%),the concentration of water fluoride in the 7 abandoned projects was higher than 1.0 mg/L(100%).Arsenic and lead levels of all the water samples were normal.There were two water samples with iron content exceeded the standard,and one total hardness of water samples exceeded the standard in the normally used 14 peripheral water sources.One chloride content exceeded the standard,one manganese content exceeded the standard,two iron content exceeded the standard and three total hardness exceeded the standard in the seven abandoned projects.ConclusionsSome defluoridation projects are stopped using and abandoned in Suizhou,and the water fluoride exceeds the standard.

Objective To investigate the relationship between apoptosis of bone marrow cells and tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?),Fas/FasL expression in children with aplastic anemia.Methods The concentration of TNF-? in supernatant of cultured bone marrow mononuclear cell(BMMC) was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The expression of Fas/FasL,apoptosis ratio of bone marrow CD34+ cell were evaluated by flow cytometry.Results The concentration of TNF-? in supernatant of cultured BMMC in AA group[SAA (27.9?8.20) ng/L;CAA (23.6?6.78) ng/L] increased significantly compared with control group(t=3.432 P0.05).Apoptosis ratio of CD34+ cell in SAA group[(24.6?9.56)%] and CAA group[(20.9?7.32)%] significantly increased compared with control group(t=3.492,3.458 Pa0.05).The concentration of TNF-? was positively correlated with the expression of CD34+ Fas+ in all types AA children(r=0.542 P0.05).Conclusions TNF-? and Fas/FasL system can be involved in inducing CD34+ cell apoptosis.This may contribute to understanding the decreased number of stem cells and bone marrow failure.
