Objective To explore the prognostic risk factors of low level malignant obstructive jaundice treated with transhapetic biliary drainage.Methods The clinical data of 142 patients with low level malignant obstructive jaundice received percutaneous transhapetic biliary drainage management from January 2010 to June 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.The study parameters included gender,age,tumor type,preoperative obstructive time,preoperative infection,drainage method,Child-Pugh grade,serum total bilirubin (TBIL),albumin (ALB),serum creatinine (SCr),the postoperative declining degree of bilirubin and postoperative antineoplastic therapy.The prognostic risk factors were evaluated.Results Single variable analysis showed that preoperative infection (P =0.006),Child-Pugh grade (P =0.004),SCr (P =0.043),the postoperative declining degree of TBIL (P =0.001) and postoperative antineoplastic therapy (P =0.015) were the related factors for survival time.The further Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative infection (OR =3.729,95％ CI 1.332-6.363,P =0.040),Child-Pugh grade ≥ 10 scores (OR =0.513,95％ CI 0.375-1.276,P =0.018) and postoperative antineoplastic therapy (OR =0.668,95％ CI 0.210-2.026,P =0.038) were the related factors for survival time.Conclusion In treating of low level malignant obstructive jaundice with transhapetic biliary drainage,the preoperative infection,Child-Pugh grade and postoperative antineoplastic therapy may be the important related factors that affect the patient's survival time,to evaluate the prognosis of these patients has important reference meaning.

Objective To evaluate the role of serine-threonine kinase (Akt)/glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) signaling pathway in isoflurane preconditioning-induced inhibition of mitochondrial permeability transition pore protein (mPTP) opening during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Ninety-six male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 3-4 months,weighing 200-250 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =24 each) using a random number table:control group (group C);I/R group;isoflurane preconditioning group (group IPC);Akt inhibitor MK-2206 group (group MK).Myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery for 30 min followed by 2 h of reperfusion.In group IPC,1.5％ isoflurane was inhaled for 30 min followed by 45 min washout,and then the model of myocardial I/R injury was established.In group MK,MK-2206 300 μg/kg (in dimethyl sulfoxide) was injected intraperitoneally at 30 min before isoflurane inhalation.At 2 h of reperfusion,8 rats were selected and sacrificed,and the hearts were removed for determination of myocardial infarct size.At 2 h of reperfusion,8 rats were selected,and blood samples were collected from the right internal jugular vein for determination of serum cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) concentrations.The rats were then sacrificed,and myocardial specimens were obtained for determination of the expression of phosphorylated GSK-3β (p-GSK-3β) in cytoplasm and mitochondria (by Western blot) and co-expression of p-GSK-3β with adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT),voltage-dependent anion channel or cyclophilin D in myocardial tissues (using co-immunoprecipitation).At 2 h of reperfusion,8 rats were selected and sacrificed,myocardial cells were obtained,and the opening time of mPTP was determined with a laser scanning confocal microscope.Results Compared with group C,the myocardial infarct size and serum cTnI concentrations were significantly increased,and the expression of p-GSK-3β in cytoplasm and mitochondria was up-regulated in I/R and IPC groups,the co-expression of p-GSK-3β with ANT was significantly down-regulated,and the opening time of mPTP was shortened in group I/R,and the co-expression of p-GSK-3β with ANT was significantly up-regulated,and the opening time of mPTP was prolonged in group IPC (P＜0.05).Compared with group I/R,the myocardial infarct size and serum cTnI concentrations were significantly decreased,the expression of p-GSK-3β in cytoplasm and mitochondria was up-regulated,the co-expression of p-GSK-3β with ANT was significantly up-regulated,and the opening time of mPTP was prolonged in group IPC,and the opening time of mPTP was significantly prolonged (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the other parameters in group MK (P＞0.05).Compared with group IPC,the myocardial infarct size and serum cTnI concentrations were significantly increased,the expression of p-GSK-3β in cytoplasm and mitochondria was up-regulated,the co-expression of p-GSK-3β with ANT was significantly down-regulated,and the opening time of mPTP was shortened in group MK (P＜0.05).No co-expression of p-GSK-3β with voltage-dependent anion channel or cyclophilin D was found in myocardial tissues.Conclusion The mechanism by which isoflurane preconditioning inhibits mPTP opening during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion is partially related to activation of Akt/GSK-3β signaling pathway in rats.

AIM: To investigate the effect of tetrandrine (Tet) on proliferation of human pterygium fibroblasts (HPF) in vitro and to search for a new method to prevent the recurrence after pterygium surgery.METHODS: With different concentrations (0 to 160μmol/L) of Tet acting on HPF cultured in vitro, the impact was observed at 24, 48, 72 hours respectively after Tet intervention. The MTT method was used to assay the biologic activities of Tet and inhibitive rate of cell growth. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in each group was detected by immunohistoche-mistry before and after Tet intervention.RESULTS:With different concentrations of 20, 40, 80 and 160μmol/L and acting for 24 to 72 hours, Tet could inhibit the proliferation of HPF in a dose- and time-dependent manner (P<0.05). After the intervention of Tet, the expression of PCNA protein declined. When the concentration of Tet was in the range of 20 to 160μmol/L, it was able to inhibit the expression of PCNA in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Tet could significantly inhibit the proliferation of pterygium fibroblasts, and the inhibitive action was in a dose- and time-dependent manner within a certain range of concentration. But in high concen-tration (>160μmol/L), Tet would have cytotoxity.

AIM: To investigate the efficacy, safety and localization of multilayer amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) for the management of corneal perforation associated with ulceration.METHODS: Six eyes (6 patients) were treated with multilayer AMT for corneal perforation associated with ulceration. The perforation size was 0.5-2mm in diameter. The amniotic membrane (AM) was applied to tamp the perforation, fill the ulcer and cover the surface of ulcer. The follow-up ranged from 5-19 months.RESULTS: The anterior chamber reformed at the first postoperative day in all patients, and kept in normal depth in the follow- up time. The epithelialization of the AM grafts was observed in about 3 weeks after surgery. During the first postoperative month, the corneal thickness at the perforation site gradually increased, and the stromal inflammatory cell invasions surrounding the corneal ulcer were gradually subsided.Two months postoperatively, the ulcer healed with scar with part neovascutarization; the corneal thickness of the ulcer area was stable and recovered almost normal. The vision was not improved in all patients after operation. During-follow up,no severe complications or recurrence of ulceration was noted.CONCLUSION: Multilayer AMT is an effective and safe method for the management of small corneal perforation associated with ulceration, but the ulcer healed with scar.

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of annular bubble conjunctival excision combining with amniotic membrane transplantation(AMT) for vernal keratoconjunctivitis(VKC) with gelatinous swellings(papillae) at the limbus.METHODS: Twenty eyes(10 patients) with VKC, were characterized by gelatinous swellings(papillae) at limbus and were underwent annular bubble conjunctival excision associated with AMT. The follow up ranged 5-21months.RESULTS: After operation, the symptoms were subsided remarkably: itching,discharge and foreign body sensation were almost disappear; photophobia and tearing were obvious in the first week after surgery, but were gradually alleviated, and almost disappear after one month of postoperative.Yellow-brown or filthy red gelatinous protuberances at limbus were cleaned away by operation and did not recur during the follow up. Corneal superficial punctuate keratitis(11 eyes) and corneal ulcers(3 eyes) were healed during the first week after surgery and did not recur. Conjunctival congestion was gradually lessened after surgery, which could not be noted 1months after surgery in 19 eyes, and the conjunctiva around the limbus, where AMT was performed, was whiter than the normal. But conjunctival congestion in 1 eye lasted for about 5mon accompanying with a little of itch, and this eye was treated with eyedrops with improvement but recurrence. No severe complications had been seen during the follow up.CONCLUSION: Annular bubble conjunctival excision combining with amniotic membrane transplantation is an effective and safe method for the treatment of vernal keratoconjunctivitis with gelatinous swellings (papillae) at limbus. But the candidates must be chosen with discretion.

AIM: To investigate the efficacy and safety of annular conjunctival excision combined with amniotic membrane transplantation for the management of earlier Mooren's ulcer.METHODS: Thirty eyes (24 patients) with earlier Mooren's ulcer were treated with this method, followed-up for 5-30mo. The characteristic of these patients was localized periphery corneal ulcer: the ulcer involved 30-120° corneal limbus with depth of 1/3-1/2 cornealthickness and width of 2-5mm.RESULTS: After surgery, symptoms subsided remarkably and immediately in all patients,and almost disappeared after stitches were removed. Corneal melts were controlled. At postoperative 2-3mo, the corneal thickness of the ulcer area became almost stable, which in some patients recovered normal and in others were still thinner than normal, and the average increase was about 1/3 of the corneal thickness. Corneal transparence and vision were improved. During follow-up, no severe complications or recurrence were noted.CONCLUSION: Conjunctival peritomy combined with amniotic membrane transplantation is an effective and safe method for the treatment of earlier Mooren's ulcer.

Objective To investigate the incidence and pregnancy outcomes of premature rupture of membranes (PROM) in pregnant women in Beijing.Methods A retrospective multicenter study of 18 534 cases delivered in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Beijing Friendship Hospital,Daxing MCH Hospital and Tongzhou MCH Hospital from January 2011 to December 2011,was conducted.Results Among 18 534 cases,PROM occurred in 4 504 cases (24.30％),including 3 910 cases of in term PROM (21.10％) and 594 cases of preterm PROM (3.20％).The incidence of premature delivery was 6.17％ (1 144/18 534),and among 1 144 cases of premature delivery 547 cases were PROM (47.81％);the incidence of PROM was 22.75％ (3 957/17 390) in term delivery.The overall cesarean section (CS) rate was 48.50％ (8 989/18 534) and that in pregnant women with PROM was 35.55％ (1 601/4 504),but the CS rate in pregnant women without PROM was 52.66％ (7 388/14 030).The rate of postpartum hemorrhage was 13.12％ (210/1 601)in CS cases and 4.17％ (121/2 903) in vaginal delivery cases (x2 =121.361,P=0.000).The mean hospital stay for PROM was (5.3±2.9) d in CS cases and (4.3±2.3) d in vaginal delivery cases (t =-12.136,P =0.000).Conclusions Without severe maternal or fetal complications,the incidence of PROM is relatively high in Beijing region and PROM may not increase the maternal or fetal complications.Vaginal delivery is the main mode of delivery for PROM.Cesarean section may not cause less neonatal complications,but may lead to more postpartum hemorrhage and longer hospital stay.
