Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of ultrashort wave combined with dephlogisticate cholagogue table in treating patients with chronic cholecystitis.Methods One hundred and forty-four patients with chronic cholecystitis treated from January 2009 to October 2011 were randomly divided into 2gtoupe by mechanical sampling method.Treatment group (76 cases) was treated with ultrashort wave and dephlogisticate cholagogue table.Control group (68 cases) was treated with dephlogisticate cholagogue table.The therapeutic effect and the incidence of ache and fever and B-type ultrasonography between two groups were compared.Results The total effective rates were 89.5％ (68/76) in treatment group and 67.6％(46/68) in control group.There was significant difference (P ＜0.01).The incidence of ache and fever,positive rate of B-type ultrasonography in tneatment group [10.5％(8/76),5.3％(4/76),10.5％(8/76)] were significantly lower than those in control group [32.4％ (22/68),14.7％ (10/68),33.8％(23/68)] (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ultrashort wave combined with dephlogisticate cholagogue tabble is an effective method for treating chronic cholecystitis.

The invasion and metastasis of esophageal carcinoma is associated with several tumor marker on oncogenesi and tumor development,including matrix metalloproteinase,cell adhesion molecules CD44,pituitary-tumour transforming genes.Studies have shown that these tumor markera are over-expression in esophageal carcinoma,which affect the progress and prognosis of esophageal carcinoma,and their specificity and value for clinical application need to be futher studied.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of survivin and p63 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of survivin and p63 in the lymphnode tissues from DLBCL patients and lymph node reactive proliferation.Results The positive expression rate of p63 and survivin proteins in DLBCL patients was 63.5 %(33/52) and 76.9 %(40/52), respectively. p63 was not expressed in lymph node reative proliferation. The positive expression rate of survivin in lymph node reactive proliferation was 20.0 %. The expression rates of survivin and p63 between two groups was significant different. The replase rate of groups with positive expression of survivin and p63 were higher than that of the negative groups. The mean survival in groups with positive expression of survivin and p63 were shorter than that of the negative groups. Conclusion Survivin and p63 are useful in therapeutic and prognostic assessment. Patients with poor prognostic can be screened out in the early period of treatment using expression of survivin and p63, which may help to improve the outcome of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
