Objective To evaluate precise hepatectomy for liver metastases of colorectal cancer. Methods The clinical data of 85 patients with liver metastases of colorectal cancer who were admitted to the Cancer Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from October 2006 to October 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Forty-two patients received precise hepatectomy(precise group) and 43 received routine hepatectomy (routine group). Evaluation of the hepatic and renal functions and detection of the tumors' condition were done before carrying out anatomical liver resection for patients in the routine group. Hepatic functional reserve of patients in the precise group was detected by indocyanine green excretion test. Hepatic artery, hepatic vein and portal vein were three-dimensionally reconstructed according to the data of computed tomography. The liver volume and residual liver volume of the patients were calculated. Hepatic resection was guided by intra-operative ultrasound in the precise group. Periand postoperative conditions and the results of follow-up of patients in the two groups were compared. All data were analyzed using the t test or chi-square test. Results No perioperative mortality was observed in the two groups.Time of hepatic blood flow occlusion and blood loss were (35±25)minutes and (685 ± 524) ml in the routine group, and (64±39) minutes and (486±360) ml in the precise group, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups(t=4.116,-2.033, P＜0.05). The volumes of blood transfusion of the routine group and the precise group were (228±398) ml and (160±330)ml, respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups (t=-0.861, P＞0.05). The postoperaive levels of alanine transaminase at day 1 and day 7 were (672±284)U/L and (332±161)U/L in the routine group, and (344±158)U/L and (125 ±93) U/L in the precise group, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (t=-6.541,-7.232,P＜0.05). The length of hospital stay and postoperative mobidity were (18±10)days and 26% (11/43) in the routine group, and (12±6)days and 7%(3/42) in the precise group, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (t=- 3.915, x2=5.251, P＜0.05). The 1-year tumor recurrence rate and 1-year survival rate were 37% (16/43) and 88% (38/43) in the routine group, and 21% (9/42) and 93% (39/42) in the precise group, with no significant difference between the two groups (x2= 0.110, 0. 501, P＞0.05). Conclusion Precise hepatectomy is superior to routine hepatectomy in aspect of minimal trauma, quick recovery, efficacy and safety.

Objective To investigate the effect of early application of aldosterone receptor blockade-spironolactone on cardiac remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods A total of 616 patients were enrolled in this prospective study,who were admitted to the CCU Division of the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2008 to January 2010.Inclusive criteria were as follows:First-onset STEMI according to the diagnostic criteria in ST-segment elevation acutemyocardial infarction diagnosis and treatment guidelines and admitted within 24 hours from onset.Exclusive criteria were as follows:Non-STEMI,only right ventricular infarction and old myocardial infarction; cardiac function Killip Class Ⅳ or hypotensive state; renal dysfunction(serum creatinine ＞ 221 μmol / L); serum potassium ＞5.0 mmol / L; longer than 24 hours from onset and older than 75 years of age.All the patients were randomly divided into a control group of standard therapy and a treatment group of standard therapy combined with spironolactone 20 mg per day.Totally 528 patients were observed completely,including 266 patients in the control group and 262 patients in the treatment group.There was no statistical difference of clinical characteristics between the two groups,including age,gender,past medical history,admission situation,and treatment(P ＞ 0.05).The effect of spironolactone on cardiac remodeling、left ventricular function、renal function and blood levels of potassium were evaluated by detecting echocardiography,serum potassium and serum creatinine at one month and one year follow-up.Results Compared with the control group,the echocardiography indicators such as LVESD,LVEDD,LVEF,LAD-ML and LAD-SI were significantly improved in treatment group at one year(P ＜ 0.05).In treatment group,LVESD,LVEDD,LVPWT,LVEF,LAD-ML and LAD-SI were significantly improved at one year than one month(P ＜ 0.05,and P =0.007 to LVEF),and LVEF was significantly improved at one year than one month in control group(P =0.0277).There were no statistical differences of serum potassium and serum creatinine between the two groups.Conclusions On the basis of conventional treatment,the early combination of low dose spironolactone(20 mg/d)could inhibit cardiac remodeling at late stage and prevent heart failure.

To compare the performances of community family physicians in different patterns of chronic disease management.From June 2011 to April 2012,3 different models (A,B,C) of chronic disease management were employed for a total of 4972 patients.Statistics analyses were performed.The number of participants,session and average effective working time were different.In terms of standard management of hypertension,diabetic management rate and non on-site management rate,model C was superior to models A and B (P ＜ 0.01).And model A had the lowest rate of non on-site management (P ＜0.05).Though with each own advantage,three models are complementary.But model C reflects the residents' self-management concept of chronic disease.

Objective: To investigate the role of miR-455 in cardiac hypertrophy with its potential cellular and molecular mechanism in mice. Methods: The mice model of cardiac hypertrophy was established by transverse aorta constriction (TAC), and 18 male kunming TAC mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:①TAC + miR-455 group,②TAC + GFP (green lfuorescence protein) group and③Sham group (sham operation + GFP).n=6 in each group and all animals were treated for 2 weeks. The hemodynamic and echocardiographic indexes were examined, histo-pathological changes of myocardial tissue were observed by HE and Masson staining. The hypertrophic and ifbrosis gene expressions were measured by RT-PCR, the apoptosis protein level was detected by Western blot analysis. The expressions of miR-455 targeting gene and protein were also determined. Results: Upon 2 weeks modeling, compared with Sham group, TAC+GFP group had increased ratio of heart weight/ body weight (9.78 ± 0.20) mg/g vs (8.25 ± 0.22) mg/g,P<0.01, increased left ventricular diastolic (LVD) wall thicknesses (1.782 ± 0.058) mm vs (1.457 ± 0.050) mm,P<0.05, decreased LVD diameter (3.027 ± 0.052) mm vs (3.142±0.050) mm,P<0.05, increased LVEF (84.167 ± 4.167) % vs (77.000 ± 3.347) %,P<0.05; increased gene expressions of cardiac hypertrophy and ifbrosis, allP<0.05, decreased anti-apoptosis protein and increased promoting apoptosis protein, allP<0.05.

Objective To compare the appearances between chronic mastitis and breast cancer on MRI and investigate the differ-ential diagnostic value.Methods MRI data of 20 patients with chronic mastitis pathologically proved by biopsy or operation were ret-rospectively analyzed.30 cases of breast cancer were contemporaneously chosen as the control group.Morphological feature and dy-namic contrast-enhanced(DCE)manifestation of the lesions were evaluated and statistical difference was compared between mastitis and breast cancer.Morphological feature included configuration,spiculated sign,ring-like enhancement,peri-focal edema,skin thick-ening,nipple involvement and axillary lymph nodes enlargement.DCE manifestation contained calculating early enhancement ratio and drawing time-intensity curve (TIC).Results There were significant statistical differences among configuration,ring-like en-hancement and peri-focal edema between mastitis and breast cancer,respectively.No statistical differences could be found among spiculated sign,skin thickening,nipple involvement and axillary lymph nodes enlargement.Early enhancement ratio in the group of mastitis was 1.1 56±0.635 while 1.253±0.499 in the group of breast cancer and there was no statistical difference between them. There were 1 1 cases with type Ⅰ TIC,6 with type Ⅱ,3 with type Ⅲ in the lesions of mastitis,while 4 with type Ⅰ,1 1 with typeⅡ,1 5 with type Ⅲ in the lesions of breast cancer and significant statistical differences could be found between two groups.Conclu-sion Mastitis usually manifests as non-mass-like lesions on MRI.Ring-like enhancement,peri-focal edema and benign type TIC can be applied to discriminate mastitis from breast cancer.

Objective To explore protective effects of panaxtrial saponins (PTS) on cognition and memory of diabetic rats and to reveal its mechanism by which might involve regulating activity of astrocytes. Methods SD rats (n=24) were ran?domly assigned into control, diabetic and PTS-treated groups (n=8 in each group). Rat diabetic model was induced through streptozotocin injection intraperitoneally. Rats in control group were native rats, and rats in PTS-treated group were diabetic rats that were administered with PTS. Body weight and blood glucose were monitored through the experiments. Three months later, state of cognition was examined by methods of water maze. Hippocampal astrocyte morphology were detected by immu?nohistochemistry, and the expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in hippocampus were revealed by Western blot. Results Compared with control group, diabetic group showed cog?nitive dysfunction, atrophic astrocyte soma, shrinked astrocyte processes, and down-regulation of hippocampal GFAP and GDNF (P<0.05). Compared with diabetic group, PTS-treated group exhibited improved cognition and morphology of hippo?campal astrocyte, and reversed expression of GFAP and GDNF in diabetic hippocampus (P<0.05). Conclusion PTS re?versed astrocytic reactivity as well as expression of GDNF and GFAP in diabetic hippocampus and ameliorated diabetic cog?nitive dysfunction.

AIM:To investigate the ability of a metal complex ammonium tetrathiomolybdate (ATTM) to re-lease H2 S and its cytoprotective effect on an oxidative injury model .METHODS:Released H2 S was absorbed in a reaction flask from ATTM dissolved in the cell medium .Staining with dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate or rhodamine 123 fol-lowed by photofluorography was conducted for the observation of reactive oxygen species ( ROS) and mitochondrial mem-brane potential (ΔΨm) levels, respectively.Cell viability and release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from the cells were measured with commercial kits.RESULTS:Similar to another H2S donor GYY4137, ATTM had an ability to release H2S in the cell medium in a dose-dependent manner .Treatment of human skin HaCaT cells with ATTM at concentrations of 25~400 μmol/L didn’ t significantly alter cell viability .Exposure of the cells to ultraviolet rays or a ROS donor H 2 O2 in-creased the intracellular ROS levels .Treatment with 400 μmol/L H2 O2 significantly reduced the viability of HaCaT cells (P<0.01).However, before the treatment with H2O2, pretreatment with ATTM at 100 and 200 μmol/L markedly pre-vented the H2O2-induced cell injury (P<0.01).In addition, the treatment with H2O2 triggeredΔΨm loss (P<0.01) and LDH release from the cells (P<0.01).Prior to suffering from H2O2 injury, the preconditioning with 200 μmol/L ATTM significantly improved ΔΨm levels ( P<0.05 ) and attenuated LDH release from the cells ( P<0.01 ) .CONCLUSION:ATTM is capable of releasing H 2 S and protecting human skin cells against oxidative injury .
