Objective To evaluate operation and chemotherapy in patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma. Methods Forty-four patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma collected from February 1993 to August 2007 were treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy with repeated course. The retroperitoneal lymph node in ten patients were resected and two patients operated after chemotherapy. Results Resected tissue in eight patients after chemotherapy were necrosis and fibrosis, two patients were viable cancer. All patients were followed up for two to eight years. Five year survival rate was stage ⅡA 100 %(11/11), stage ⅡB 91.67 % (22124), stage Ⅱc 77.78 %(7/9). Conclusion For raising survival rate and controlling disease development of the patients who suffered from stage Ⅱ testieular seminoma,the repeated courses of chemotherapy should be given as early as possible.

The paper discussed the working platform for medical ethics education,for the purpose of making such education regular,normalized and popular among the staff.Such means as better organization,innovative media,reinforced implementation and repeated examination will encourage hospital staff to develop better medical ethics for better quality of care and elevation of hospital culture and social satisfaction.

Objective To observe the immunologic function of critically ill newborn and the relative function of nuclear factor kappa B(NF-?B).Methods The critically ill group contained 50 cases,and 25 cases from healthy newborns were used as control group.Blood samples were collected in each case,levels of cytokine interleukin(IL)-4,interferon(IFN)-?,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-? and NF-?B were detected.Result Compared with control group,NF-?B of the critically ill newborn activated and the cytokine were disorder,and IL-4 and TNF-? increased,but IFN-? decreased.Conclusions Critically ill newborn exist immune functional disorder.Furthermore,NF-?B activation may be involved in the process in infants with critically illness.

Objective To observe the granule tissue remodeling under neoepithelium in minitype pigs' full thickness dermal wounds and discuss the relation between the remodeling and possible ulcers or scars. Methods After the establishment of eight full-thickness dermal wound models with the diameter of 4 cm on the back of six minitype pigs, the specimens were collected from wound edge and wound center immediately, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 45 days, respectively after injury for HE staining, immunohistochemical staining and Van Gieson staining and then observed under light microscope to count the cell number, fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells as well as evaluate the quantity and arrangement of collagens. Results The mean wound healing time was (29.3?1.8) days. After 9-25 days, the granule tissues in the wound center contained more cells, fibroblasts, collagen and vascular endothelial cells than those under neoepithelium of wound edge (P 0.01). Meanwhile, the collagen quantity and arrangement style of granule tissues under neoepithelium during wounds healing (12-30 days) assembled those under neoepithelium 15 days after wound healing. Conclusion Granule tissue remodeling exists during the healing of full thickness dermal wound.

Objective To explore the association between the genetic polymorphism of hypoxia inducible factor 1 α (HIF-1α) G1790A and the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods A total of 189 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with radical radiotherapy were followed-up for 3 years.The patients were divided into cured group with 135 cases and recurrence group with 54 cases by clinical follow-up results.PCR-RFLP was used to determine the mononucleotide genotypes of HIF-1α G1790A.Results The observed genotype frequencies of HIF-1α gene 1790 (G→A) for GG, GA and AA were 70.04% , 20.74% , 2.22% in cured group and 59.26% , 38.89% , 1.85% in recurrence group, respectively.The allele frequencies for G and A were 87.4% , 13.9% in cured groups and 78.7% ,21.3% in recurrence group, respectively, without significant difference in distribution of allele frequencies between the two groups(x2 =6.919, P =0.077).Conclusions The genetic polymorphisms of HIF-1α G1790A might be related with the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of estrogen receptor(ER)and progesterone receptor(PR)in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICCA)and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ECCA)comparatively.MethodsThe expression of ER and PR was detected in 24 specimens of ICCA and 34specimens of ECCA by immunohistochemistry assay.ResultsThe positive rates for ER and PR expression were 29 ％(7/24)and 46 ％(11/24)in ICCA specimens,respectively.3 cases among 9 cases of high histological grade,3 cases among 11 cases of middle histological grade and 1 case among 4 cases of low histological grade expressed ER positively,while 2 cases,7 cases and 2 cases expressed PR positively,respectively.The expression of ER and PR expressions showed no statistically significant differences between different histological grades of ICCA.ER and PR were all negative in 34 specimens of ECCA.Conclusion ER and PR show significant different expression between ICCA and ECCA,with exclusive positive expression in ICCA.ER and PR might be involved in the pathogeuesis of ICCA.

Objective To determine the effects of hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α) expression on postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy in esophageal carcinoma. Methods 95 cases with esophageal carcinoms who received radical operation were analyzed with followed-up data from 1995 to 1998.Expression of HIF-1α in 45 patients with esophageal carcinoma who received radiotherapy after radical operation were deternlined by immunohistochemical method in contrast with 50 patients with esophageal carcinoma received surgery alone.Kaplan-Meier method and COX proportional hazard model were used to analyze.Results The positive expression of HIF-1α in esophageal carcinoma was observed mainly in the nucleus of tumor cells.The positive expression rate of HIF-1α in esophageal carcinoma was 58.9%.The expression of HIF-1α had no relationship with age,sex,histologic subtype and T stage,but had positive relationship with recurrence and distant metastasis.There was significant difference between patients with positive and negative HIF-1α protein expression in surgery alone and postoperation radiotherapy group. COX model analysis showed that HIF-1α had separate and significant impacts on prognosis in surgery group and surgery plus radiotherapy group. Conclusion Over expression of HIF-1α protein suggests a poor prognosis,and has tendency to resist radiotherapy in esophageal carcinoma.

Objective To survey the clinical ability of diagnosis and treatment of diabetic foot among district medical clinical staffs.Methods 55 medical staffs were questionnaired about the diabetic foot knowledge before and after a technical training course.Results (1) After training,the clinical ability of diabetes physical examination,the features of diabetic foot identification,diabetic foot prevention and treatment,diabetic foot health education and the muhidisciplinary team of diabetic foot organization improved.The medical staffs got to know how to organize a multidisciplinary team of diabetic foot.The difference was significant(P＜0.05).(2)The professional category of medical personnel(OR=19.464,95％ CI=1.837-206.243),the history collection and physical examination of diabetic foot (OR=34.825,95％ CI=3.486-347.875)were the influent factors of antibiotic selection when diabetic foot were infected.Conclusion Targeted diabetic foot training is effective to improve the clinical diagnosis and treatment level of district medical staffs.

Objective:To compare the steam distillation( SD) and supercritical CO2 ( SFE-CO2 ) method in the extraction of vola-tile constituents from such 3 traditional Chinese drugs as cnidium monnieri, radix sileris and atractylodes lancea in compound Kuhuang prescription. Methods:Essential oil was extracted from the 3 traditional Chinese drugs by SD and SFE-CO2 method, respectively. The components were identified by GC-MS, and their relative contents were calculated with peak area normalization method. Results:To-tally 36 components were isolated and identified using SD extraction and 31 components were identified using SFE-CO2 extraction, a-mong them, 22 components were the same and their relative molecular weight mainly concentrated within 200-230. Conclusion: SFE-CO2 method can extract effective components from the 3 traditional Chinese drugs in compound Kuhuang prescription with higher selec-tivity, which is the more suitable extraction method for essential oil from the prescription.
