Objective To evaluate the effects of conscious sedation analgesia during superficial bladder tumor resection for elderly patients. Methods Forty elderly patients who needed 2 μm laser resection for bladder tumors were treated with target controlled infusion (TCI) remifentanil and propofol. The initial target concentration of remifentanil was 2.5 ng/mL and that of propofol was 1 μg/mL. The target concentration of those two agents was adjusted until loss of painfulness to the operative stimulus. The MAP, HR, SpO2, RR and PetCO2, BIS and scores by OAA/S were compared between pre-and post-surgery at different time points (time before anesthesia, T0; time before analgesia, T1; time when the resection began, T2; 5 minutes after the resection began, T3;10 minutes after the resection began, T4; 15 minutes after the resection began, T5; the end of operation, T6;5 minutes after operation). Results All patients lived through the surgery under a conscious sedation. After the anesthesia, blood pressure, heart rate and breathing rate were declined, while oxygen saturation was unchanged. Conclusion TCI with remifentanil and propofol provides better hemodynamic stability, satisfactory sedation analgesia and faster recovery of surgery.

Upper urinary tract calculi with infection is a quite difficult acute urologic emergency.And what is more, upper urinary tract obstruction after radical cystectomy following urinary diversion may be fatal in the vulnerable patients with this kind of situation.Postoperative anatomy and other factors affect the upper urinary tract calculi, and urinary tract infection greatly increased the risk.But it is particularly difficult to handle with patients with poor general condition and septic shock treatment, so how to optimize the selection program is worth further studying.A 65-year-old man was admitted to hospital for combining with renal and ureteral calculi after radical cystectomy (Bricker) in March 2017.The patient underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor in the outer court because of the discovery of bladder tumor one year before, The postoperative pathology was high-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma and he underwent regular irrigation of the bladder.Because of tumor recurrence, he came to Peking University Third Hospital for further treatment in August 2016, and the examination of urinary tract CT indicated bladder can-cer;for bilateral multiple renal pelvis and renal calices calculi, he was given laparoscopic radical cystecto-my.After four months, due to sudden chill fever, he was hospitalized.After definite diagnosis, anti-inflammatory treatment combined with left nephrostomy was given.The two-stage lithotripsy was performed.After expansion of the original left renal fistula to 24 F(1 F=0.33 mm), 24 F sheath was inducted into the kidney.We introduced a flexible ureteroscopy into the channel down to the ureteral obstruction, where we found a 1 cm oval black brown stone obstructed.A guide wire was inducted through the stones down to ileal conduit in the right lower quadrant.Through the ureteroscopy, we made ureteral calculi broken into powder, and replaced the residual stones into the renal pelvis.Then we used the nephroscopy for lithotropsy in the pelvis, and finally we introduced a flexible cystoscopy for the residual stone.The operation was successful, the operation time was 181 min, and intraoperative bleeding was 10 mL.After operation, no residual stones were found in kidney, ureter, bladder (KUB) plain films.No operation complications were related to the urinary tract.Therefore, multiple endoscopy with combination therapy of upper urinary tract calculi following urinary diversion is safe and effective, and the reasonable choice with the advantages of each instrument can improve the stone clearance rate and shorten the operation time.This can be used as a useful complement to traditional treatment.

Objective To investigate the association of the major histocompatibility complex class Ⅰ chain-related antigens A (MICA)-129 gene polymorphism and soluble MICA (sMICA) levels with ulcerative colitis (UC) in Hubei Han nationality. Methods The genetic polymorphism of MICA-129 was examined using a polymerase chain reaction-sequence based test (PCR-SBT) in 256 UC patients and 460 healthy controls. From the above subjects, 80 patients and 90 healthy individuals were randomly selected for determining serum sMICA concentrations by ELISA. Results The frequencies of variant allele (G) and genotype (GG) in MICA-129 gene were significantly higher in the UC patients than in the controls(76. 8%vs 72. 2%, P =0. 060; 55.9% vs 46. 3% ,P =0. 016). Serum sMICA levels were significantly elevated in the patients compared to the controls[(576. 47 ±279. 02) ng/L vs( 182. 17 ±73. 11 ) ng/L,P <0. 001]. In addition, the sMICA levels were higher in the patients carrying MICA-129 GG genotypes than in those carrying ( GA + AA) genotypes [( 638. 87 ± 347. 15 ) ng/L vs ( 507. 51 ± 152. 87 ) ng/L, P = 0. 035].Conclusions The genetic polymorphism of MICA-129 and sMICA levels are correlated with the UC patients in Hubei Han nationality. Our findings demonstrate that MICA-129 gene may contribute to the pathogenesis of UC.

OBJECTIVETo establish an animal model of acute blunt scrotal trauma (BST) and evaluate the types of lesion by conventional ultrasonography (CUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS).
METHODSWe made acute BST models in 21 healthy male New Zealand rabbits by striking 3 - 12 times the unilateral testes randomly selected with a 0. 5 kg iron ball falling freely from a 30 cm height. Then we evaluated the lesion types in the models by CUS and CEUS and verified our evaluation against pathological results.
RESULTSAcute BST models were successfully established in all the 21 animals, including contusion in 10, hematoma in 6, and rupture in 5, all confirmed by pathology. CUS clearly manifested the morphology, internal echoes, and blood flow of the testes, but had a low rate of accurate diagnosis in testicular contusion for over 6 hours as well as in complex lesions. CEUS revealed an earlier perfusion of the contrast agent and shorter arriving time (AT) and time to peak intensity ( TP) in testicular contusion than in the control testes (P <0.05) , but showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the half time of descending peak intensity (P>0.05). For testicular hematoma, contrast agent clearly presented its outline and a delayed low enhancement in the surrounding tissue, with significant differences from the control in AT and TTP. In severe testis rupture, occasional outflow but no perfusion of contrast agent was observed.
CONCLUSIONBST models can be established in rabbits by repeated strikes of the unilateral testes lesion of contrast agent was observed. with a freely falling iron ball. Simple contusion injury can be induced by less than 6 strikes, while complex injuries can be inflicted by more than 10. Combined application of CUS and CEUS can improve the accuracy of diagnosis of different types of lesion.

AIM: To compare the safety and efficacy of conjunctival autograft transplant ( CAT ) and limbal - conjunctival autograft transplant (LCAT) for primary pterygium.
METHODS: In this prospective, randomized and controlled clinical study, 120 patients ( 120 eyes ) diagnosed with primary pterygium were collected in NO. 474 Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 2014 to January 2015. The 120 patients enrolled in the study in turn, and divided into two group by the odd and even number. The odd number underwent CAT and the even number underwent LCAT.
RESULTS:One hundred and seven patients (107 eyes) completed the follow-up of 1a, including 54 patients (54 eyes) from the CAT group and 53 patients (53 eyes) from the LCAT group. Four patients (4 eyes, recurrence rate 7. 4%) in the CAT group and 2 patients ( 2 eyes, recurrence rate 3. 8%) in the LCAT group developed recurrence. However, there were no significant in recurrence rate between CAT group and LCAT group (P =0. 678).
CONCLUSION: CAT and LCAT might be both effective treatment for primary pterygium for reducing the recurrence rate of pterygium. However, LCAT is the optimal surgical method for primary pterygium.

OBJECTIVETo develop a three-dimensional porous film of human hair keratin (HHK)-collagen sponge complex for use as a dermal substitute.
METHODSThe three components F, B, and Z derived from healthy human hair were weaved into a meshwork and integrated with purified soluble type I collagen extracted from bovine tendons to prepare a highly porous film with vacuum freeze-drying followed by secondary cross-linking with glutaraldehyde. The film was grafted beneath the dorsal skin in 21 SD rats (experimental group), with simple collagen sponge serving as the negative control. The rats receiving surgical operation but without graft served as the blank control. The graft and its surrounding tissue were harvested on days 3, 7 and at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 after implantation for evaluation of tissue compatibility, vascularization and degradation.
RESULTSThe prepared collagen sponge film was semitransparent and porous. Three to 7 days after grafting, inflammatory reaction was relieved gradually, and several fibroblasts and blood vessels were found adherent to the grafts in the experimental groups. At week 4, the wounds healed in the experimental groups, and the fibroblasts were actively secreting collagen and the film degraded obviously with the appearance of elastic fibers. At weeks 6 and 8, new collagen fibers thickened and assumed regular arrangement, and the collagen sponge films disappeared completely. In the control groups, the changes were less obvious and total HHK degradation occurred till week 12.
CONCLUSIONThe degradable and absorbable HHK-collagen sponge film has relatively satisfactory tissue compatibility and can accelerate wound healing by stimulating cell proliferation and vascularization, showing the potential as an optimal dermal substitute.

Objective To investigate the changes of CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T lymphocyte (Treg) and expressions of folkhead helix transcription factor 3 (FoxP3) in intestinal mucosa in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients. Methods Twenty-one HIV infected patients and 17 control subjects without HIV infection were included in this study. The expression of FoxP3, which was considered as a specific marker of CD4+ CD25 + Treg, was detected in intestinal mucosa specimens from HIV infected patients by immunohistochemistry. Meanwhile, the in situ expression of CD4+ T lymphocyte was also determined by immunohistochemistry. The data were analyzed by t test. Results The positive labeling index of CD4+ T lymphocyte in intestinal mucosa was significantly lower in HIV infected patients compared to the controls (11. 56%±4. 44% vs 43. 49% ±8. 90% ,t=-11. 86,P<0. 01). The positive labeling index of FoxP3 in intestinal mucosa was also significantly lower in HIV infected patients compared to the controls (0.46% ± 0.20% vs 1. 18% ± 0. 44% ,t= - 5. 98,P<0.01). Conclusion The depletion of CD4+ CD25+ Treg is accompanied with the depletion of CD4 + T lymphocyte and the reduction of FoxP3 expression in intestinal mucosa of HIV infected patients.
