ObjectiveWe report the clinical and pathological features of 8 Chinese myopathy patients with antibodies to the signal recognition particle(SRP).MethodsSerum myositis antibody profiles were tested with immunoblotting.Muscle biopsies were performed for histological,enzyme histochemical and immunohistochemical stainings.The first antibody in the immunohistochemical staining was mouse anti-human monoclonal antibodies including CD8,CD20,CD68,MHC- Ⅰ and CD31.ResultsEight cases showed stark positive of anti SRP antibody,3 of them with positive anti Ro-52 antibody.The muscle biopsies showed necrotic and regenerative muscle fibers associated with infiltration of macrophage,but scattered T lymphocytes in 2 patients.Two of them presented with fiber hypertrophy and proliferation of connective tissue.There were some fibers with positive MHC-Ⅰexpression.Capillaries were almost normal.Conclusion The muscle weakness of myopathy with antibodies to SRP presents as a chronic progressive course and could associate with lung involvement.Fiber necrosis and regeneration are the main myopathological features,which can mimic muscular dystrophy in some cases.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome and relative factors of intervention treatment for atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis in elderly patients.Methods The clinical data of 79 patients diagnosed as atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis by angiography and treated by revascularization were analyzed.Results There were 55(69.6%)successes and 24(30.4%)failures in decreasing blood pressure and 28(35.4%)successes and 51(64.6%)failures in improving renal function after intervention treatment.Predictors of favorable outcome of intervention treatment in decreasing blood pressure were related to lower urine protein,higher glomerular filtration rate,higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure before treatment,lower resistance index(RI)of renal artery,and no complication of cerebral vascular diseases.Predictors of favorable outcome of intervention treatment in improving renal function were related with percentage of angiographic stenosis,category of antihypertension and lower urine protein.The logistic regression analysis showed that the percentage of angiographic stenosis was the most important predictor of intervention treatment for blood pressure control,age and level of serum creatinine before intervention treatment were the most important predictors of intervention treatment for improving renal faction.Conclusion Percentage of stenosis(≥85%),age(133 ?mol/L)can be used as the predictors of therapeutic success for renovascular stenosis in older patients.

Objective To assess the effects of fenofibrate on myocardial remodeling in obese rats by echocardiography.Methods Twenty-six SD rats were fed with high fat chow to establish twenty obese rats models,which were randomly divided into two groups:obesity group (OB group,n =10) and fenofibrate group(F group,n =10).The same week-old SD rats group (n =10) was also randomly selected as normal control group.F group was given fenofibrate 60 mg · kg-1 · d-1 for 8 weeks,the other groups were given normal saline.Echocardiographic scan was performed in each group at the beginning and ending of the experiment.Twenty-four weeks later,all rats were executed and the cardiac muscle was used to histological inspect.Results After the experiment,compared with the control group,the body weight,the ventricular thickness,interventricular septal thickness and the left ventricular mass in OB group were significantly increased than those of control group(P ＜0.01),the E/A ratio was significantly decreased(P ＜0.01).Histological detection showed that myocardial structure was disordered,and that interstitial collagen was deposited in the myocardium.Compared with OB group,the parameters all above in F group were significantly improved (P ＜0.01).Left ventricular mass from echocardiography correlated well with the results from pathologic specimen (r =0.98,P ＜0.01).Conclusions Fenofibrate has beneficial effects on preventing myocardial remodeling.By general echocardiography,the effects can be assessed comprehensively and accurately.

Objective To investigate the effect of video -assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS)and conventional thoracotomy in treatment of thoracic esophagus cancer,to provide the reference for clinical.Methods 90 cases of thoracic esophageal cancer in our hospital from January 2012 to January 2015 were chosen as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into observation group(application of VATS treatment)and the control group (application of traditional open chest surgery).The quantity difference,chest drainage,hospitalization time,complica-tions,recovery conditions and other indicators of bleeding were compared in the two groups.Results The operation time of the observation group[(267.6 ±76.5)min]was shorter than that of the control group[(324.4 ±87.6)min]. The amount of intraoperative bleeding[(235.3 ±79.5)mL],drainage volume[(327.5 ±95.2)mL]of the observation group were less than the control group[(398.2 ±98.3)mL and (752.6 ±156.4)mL].Postoperative hospitalization time[(12.2 ±3.2)d]of the observation group was shorter than the control group[(15.8 ±4.4)d].The differences were statistically significant (t =3.276,8.644,15.575,4.439,all P <0.05).There were no significant differences between two groups in recurrence and metastasis rate,mortality rate and total survival rate (χ2 =0.123,0.212, 0.212,all P >0.05).The complication rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =4.865,P <0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of thoracic esophageal carcinoma,VATS and conventional thoracotomy surgery has good effect,and VATS has small injury,less complication.

Objective:To compare the safety and efficacy of continuous transversus abdominis plane (CTAP) block and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) in abdominal surgery postoperatively.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI and other English and Chinese databases were searched since their establishment to February 2021 with "continuous/modified, transversus/transverse abdominis plane block, TAP block, patient controlled analgesia, patient-controlled analgesia, patient controlled intravenous analgesia, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia, PCA/PCIA/IV-PCA" as the search keywords. According to the analgesia treatment methods, patients were divided into continuous transversus abdominis plane block group (CTAP group) and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia group (PCIA group). Review Manager 5.4 software was used to conduct a Meta-analysis on outcome indicators such as postoperative nausea and (or) vomiting (PONV), dizziness, pain score and recovery status after abdominal surgery. Risk ratio ( RR) was calculated for counting data, Mean ± SD was calculated for measurement data. Heterogeneity was measured by I2, and related data were analyzed by using either a fixed effects model or a random effects model. Results:(1) The results of literature search: A total of 6 randomized controlled trials, including 2 published in English and 4 published in Chinese were analyzed, involving 479 patients. The results of the Meta-analysis: Compared with PCIA, CTAP block had lower incidence of PONV ( RR=0.22, 95% CI: 0.08-0.62, P<0.01), lower incidence of dizziness ( RR=0.27, 95% CI: 0.09-0.79, P=0.02), lower pain scores on movement at 24 h ( MD=-0.75, 95% CI: -1.42--0.08, P=0.03) and 48 h ( MD=-0.68, 95% CI: -1.05--0.31, P<0.001) postoperatively, and earlier time of first mobilization ( MD=-0.49, 95% CI: -0.69--0.30, P<0.001) and first exhaust ( MD=-10.47, 95% CI: -13.53--7.41, P<0.001), with statistically significant differences. However, there were no statistically significant differences in pain scores at rest at 24 h ( MD=-0.25, 95% CI: -0.57-0.08, P=0.14) and 48 h ( MD=-0.15, 95% CI: -0.39-0.09, P=0.22) postoperatively and postoperative length of hospital stay ( MD=-1.01, 95% CI: -2.28-0.26, P=0.12). Conclusion:CTAP block is a relatively safe and effective analgesic method, and it′s more consistent with the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and can be recommended as an alternative method of PCIA.
