Methods 90 patients with generalized anxiety disorder(GAD) and panic disorder(PD) and 90 healthy persons were tested by psychological questionnaire,the anxiety and depression were assessed by HAMA and HAMD. The average heart rate and HRV index were monitored by 24-hour ambulatory ECG. Results The average heart rate of the anxiety group was higher than the control group, compared with the control group the difference was significant ( P < 0. 05 ); The HRV parameters of the anxiety group were lower than the control group, compared with the control group the difference was significant( P < 0. 05 ) ;The HRV parameters of the GAD group were lower than the control group, the HRV parameters of the PD group were lower than the GAD group, the difference was significant ( P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion The patients with anxiety neurosis had high sympathetic nerve activity function and autonomic dysfunction, the PD patients had higher sympathetic nerve activity function and autonomic dysfunction than the GAD patients.

Objective:To determine the effects of TGF-?1 on the cytoskeleton in cultured human dental pulp cells(HPCs).Methods:Human dental pulp cells were cultured from dental pulp tissue explants digested with collagenase I. Semi-confluent cultures of the cells maintained under serum deprivation were treated with 20 ng/ml of TGF-?1 for 30 min, 1, 6 and 24 h respectively.Then cells were processed for BODYPY-phalloidin direct fluorescence examination of the actin filaments,DAPI direct fluorescence of the nucleus and Rhodamine Red(TM) indirect immunofluorescence of tubulin-?. Confocal laser scanning microscopy was used to investigate the changes of actin filaments and microtubules.Results:Disintegration and reorganization of actin filaments were observed in human dental pulp cells treated by TGF-?1 at 20 ng/ml. Actin filaments assembly was found near the cell membrane,specially after 30 min exposure.Disintegration of actin filaments was most obvious after 6 h treatment.Actin filaments were reorganized after 24 h exposure.Microtubules mainly remained intact in the cells during TGF-?1 treatment.Conclusion:TGF-?1 at 20 ng/ml may induce actin cytoskeletal reorganization in human dental pulp cells.

Objective To explore the experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of urothelial tumor in multiple organs.Methods Clinical data of 10 patients with urothelial tumor in multiple organs were retrospectively reviewed.Urothelial tumors were found in two or more organs at the same time by B ultrasound,IVU,R-P,CTU,MRU,cystoscopy,ureteroscopy and so on before operation.Results 6 cases were operated by radical total nephroureterectomy and partial cystectomy,3 cases were operated by radical total nephroureterectomy and cystectomy with urinary diversion,1 case was operated by partial ureterectomy and total cystectomy.8 of them were alive,1 case was operated by total urethrectomy because of tumor recurrence in the posterior urethra,one died of metastasis tumor 18 months after operation,and the other died 32 month after operation.Conclusions Combined use of various kinds of the diagnostic means (ultrasound,IVU,R-P,CTU,MRU,cystoscopy,ureteroscopy) are important for the diagnosis of urothelial tumor in multiple organs.It needs to select the operate mode according to the tumor staging and grade and the patient's condition.Reinforcement surveillance and close follow up is required after operation.

ObjectiveTo review the major complications in patients after transurethal electrovaporization of the prostate (TUVP) and transurethal plasmakinetic resection of the prostate (PKRP) retrospectively and to analyze the causes and management.MethodsClinical data of 92 cases of patients after TUVP and 226 cases after PKRP were reviewed retrospectively.The patients' relevant circumstances including subjective symptoms,objective indexes and the major long-term complications were followed up about 1-,3-,and 5-year after operation.Different therapeutic methods were chosen according to different causes of the complications.ResultsThere were no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05 ) between TUVP group and PKRP group in IPSS (7.3±2.8,7.2±2.5),QOL (2.6±0.7,2.7 ±0.5),Qmax[ (25.2±3.5),(25.5 ±3.8) ml/s] and PVR [(18.7 ±5.4),(17.8 ±6.3)ml].The incidences of bladder neck restriction was about 1.1％,3.3％,and 2.3％ after 1,3,and5 years in patients after TUVP,and 0.9％,2.7％,and 1.8％ after PKRP accordingly.For urethral stricture,it was about 3.3％,2.2％,and 1.1％ after TUVP,and 3.1％,2.2％,and 0.9％ after PKRP.For residual prostatic hyperplasia,it was about 1.1％,2.2％,and 4.5％ after TUVP,and 1.3％,2.7％,and 3.7％ after PKRP accordingly.ConclusionsTUVP and PKRP are effective and safe treatment options for BPH.The major long-term complications after TUVP and PKRP are bladder neck restriction,urethral stricture and residual prostatic hyperplasia.Regular and long-term follow-up is required for patients after TUVP and PKRP.Different therapeutic methods should be chosen according to different causes of the complications after operation.

Objective The present study was designed to investigate the risk factors affecting bleeding during percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Methods The records of 218 patients with percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedure by a single surgeon were retrospectively reviewed.The mean age was 48 years ( range,19 -70).One hundred and forty six patients had staghore stones,and 7 patients had previous open or percutaneous nephrolithotomy histories.Forty-one patients had concomitant diabetes mellitus,and 89 cases had hypertension.The following factors including age,sex,BMI,diabetes status,hypertension status,stone type,calix of puncture,previous open or percutaneous nephrolithotomy history,number of accesses,size of accesses,operative time,and surgeon experience were analyzed.Univariate analysis and multivariate step regression analysis were used for statistical assessment. Results 207 procedures were successfully performed,and 11 patients failed because of difficulty to establish the accesses.Single-tract was used in 176 cases and multiple-tract was used in 31 cases.163 cases were performed via a 18 F access and 44 cases via a 24 F access.The mean operative time was 78.4 min.The overall blood transfusion rate was 7.7％,and stone type ( P =0.034),diabetes ( P =0.030),number of accesses ( P =0.019 ),size of accesses ( P =0.008) and operative time (P =0.001 ) were the risk factors affecting blood transfusion requirement.The average hemoglobin (Hb) drop after percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures was 11.2 g/L,and stone type ( P ＜ 0.001 ),diabetes ( P =0.015 ),number of accesses ( P =0.016),size of accesses ( P ＜ 0.001 ) and operative time ( P ＜ 0.001 ) were the risk factors affecting Hb drop.The following covariates including Hb drop:age,sex,BMI,previous open or percutaneous nephrolithotomy history,hypertension status,calix of puncture and surgeon experience were not risk factors affecting blood transfusion requirement and Hb drop.Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that diabetes ( OR =1.75 ),stone type ( OR =1.92),number of accesses ( OR =2.45 ),size of accesses ( OR =1.32) and operative time ( OR =1.66) significantly increased risk of bleeding. Conclusions Stone type,diabetes,number of accesses,size of accesses and operative time were the risk factors affecting blood loss during percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of solifenacin in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome in patients who have undergone transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Methods According to the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS), 64 cases with OAB symptoms after TURP were randomly assigned into study and control groups with 32 cases in each group. Patients in the study group were treated with solifenacin (5 mg once daily) for a two week period beginning the first day after catheter removal. Patients in the control group were not treated with solifenacin. The mean urgency episodes, micturition episodes, nocturia, urge incontinence, volume voided per micturition, Qmax and OABSS scores were recorded on the 7th and the 14th day after catheter removal. Treatment-emergent adverse events with solifenacin in the study group were recorded and evaluated as well. All cases were followed-up for 8 weeks after catheter removal. Results There were statistically significant differences (P<0.01) in favor of the study group over the control group in the aspect of urgency, micturition episodes, nocturia, urge incontinence, volume voided per micturition and OABSS scores. The incidences of treatment related adverse events were 12.5% (4/32) in the study group with no serious adverse event observed. Conclusions Solifenacin is effective in the treatment of OAB syndrome after TURP and is well tolerated as well. Application of solifenacin should be recommended earlier after TURP.

For investigating the effect of Jumonji domain-containing protein-3 (JMJD3) on the behavior of lung cancer cell line, A549 proliferation was measured with EDU staining and flow cytometer after JMJD3 expression plasmid and pcDNA3. 1 transfection at 48h. The migration ability of A549 was tested at the same time. The expression of p21 mRNA was measured with RT-PCR. The results showed that JMJD3 transfection increased the EDU positive cells ratio (JMJD3: 40.75% +/- 2.07%, control: 20.97% +/- 1.5%, P < 0.001). G1 phase cell ration also increased after JMJD3 transfection (JMJD3:47. 80% +/- 1.85%, control: 54.60% +/- 0.95%, P = 0.005). The mRNA expression of p21 decreased in JMJD3 group (JMJD3: 35. 89% +/- 3.71%, control: 91.78% +/- 3.74%, P < 0.001). The distances of migration were (0.47 +/- 0.27) cm and (0.96 +/- 0.40) cm after 24h and 48h with JMJD3 tranfection, compared to (0.57 +/- 0.22)cm and (1.08 +/- 0.33)cm in control, respectively (P > 0.05). JMJD3 promoted the proliferation of A549 and decreased the G1 cell numbers, decreased the p21 mRNA, but had no effect on A549 migration.

Objective:To explore the prolonged therapeutic regimen for patients with plaque psoriasis, who showed a positive response to 4-week treatment with tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream, but were not completely cured.Methods:A multicenter, randomized, open-labelled, parallel-controlled clinical study was conducted. A total of 232 patients with plaque psoriasis were collected, who showed a positive response to previous 4-week treatment with 0.05%/0.05% tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream, but were not completely cured with the psoriasis area and severity index[PASI] improvement rate being 50%-90%. At week 5, they were randomly and equally divided into 2 groups: test group receiving treatment with 0.05%/0.05% tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream once a day, and control group receiving a sequential regimen of 0.05% tazarotene gel on weekdays once a day followed by 0.05%/0.05% tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream on weekends once a day. After 2-and 4-week prolonged treatment, the efficacy and safety of the 2 therapeutic regimens were evaluated and compared. Measurement data were compared between 2 groups by using covariance analysis or t test, and enumeration data were compared by using chi-square test. Results:From the 5th to the 8th week, 200 out of the 232 patients completed the treatment. Data collected from 110 patients in the test group and 112 in the control group were enrolled into the full analysis set, and those from both 113 patients in the test group and control group were enrolled into safety analysis set. After consecutive 6-and 8-week treatment, the decline rates of the PASI score were 73.05% ± 16.69% and 78.46% ± 15.40% respectively in the test group, which were significantly higher than those in the control group (66.73% ± 21.77%, 67.02% ± 34.19%, respectively, both P < 0.05) . After 6-week treatment, the proportion of subjects who achieved PASI90 was significantly higher in the test group (14 cases, 12.7%) than in the control group (5 cases, 4.5%, χ2=4.842, P=0.028) ; After 8-week treatment, the proportions of subjects who achieved PASI75 and PASI90 (61.8%, 23.6%, respectively) were significantly higher in the test group than in the control group (48.2%, 12.5%, respectively, both P < 0.05) . During the consecutive 8-week treatment, there was no significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse reactions between the test group (15.0%) and control group (23.9%, χ2=2.822, P=0.093) . Conclusion:For patients who showed a positive response to 4-week treatment with 0.05%/0.05% tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream, but were not completely cured, the continuous use of 0.05%/0.05% tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream for 4 weeks is a superior therapeutic regimen compared with the sequential regimen of 0.05% tazarotene gel followed by 0.05%/0.05% tazarotene/betamethasone dipropionate cream.

Objective To observe the effect of Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum on the cell cycle and apoptosis of colon cancer HCT116 cells,and to explore its possible biological mechanism.Methods Colon cancer HCT116 cells were divided into blank group and Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum group with different concentrations.Cell proliferation and activity detection-8(CCK8)was used to detect the effect of each group on the viability of HCT116 cells at 24,48 and 72 h;Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis and cycle arrest of HCT116 cells induced by different concentrations of Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum;Western blot was used to detect the protein expression level of Cell Cycle Regulatory Protein P21(P21),Cyclin B1,cyclin-dependent protein kinases-1(CDK1),B-lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-related X protein(Bax),phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase(PI3K),phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase(p-PI3K),protein kinase B(Akt)and phosphorylated protein kinase B(p-Akt)after different concentrations of Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum intervention.Results CCK8 showed that compared with the 10%blank group,10%Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum had a significant inhibitory effect on the viability of HCT116 cells only at 48 h(P<0.01);Compared with the 20%blank group,20%Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum could inhibit the viability of HCT116 cells at 48 and 72 h(P<0.01,P<0.05),and the increase of blank serum will not inhibit the viability of HCT116 cell,so 10%blank serum and 48 h were selected as the drug control and intervention time in the subsequent experiment.Flow Cytometry showed that,compared with the blank group,10%and 20%Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum could arrest HCT116 cell cycle in G2/M phase after 48 h of intervention(P<0.01),and induce HCT116 cell apoptosis.At the same time,Western blot showed that Tongxie Yaofang-containing serum could increase the expression of P21 and Bax to varying degrees,and reduces Cyclin B1,CDK1,Bcl-2,p-PI3K,p-Akt expression(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion Tongxie Yaofang can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of colon cancer HCT116 cells,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
