Liver cancer is the common malignant tumors of threat to human health and life,which makes the high mortality rate of patients with liver cancer.Mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate in the liver microenvironment of new liver cells,and promote tissue repair by secreting neurotrophic factors involved in immune regulation,anti-fibrosis and inhibition of hepatic stellate cells and liver progenitor cells activity and other characteristics of treatment of liver cancer has broad prospects.In this paper,mesenchymal stem cell research progress of the influence of primary liver cancer were reviewed.

Objective To analyze retrospectively the factors related with lymph node metastasis in thyroid microcarcinoma.Methods One hundred and eieghty-seven cases of thyroid microcarcinoma were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from January 2007 to December 2011,who were operated at the first time and confirmed by pathology.According to the occurrence of lymph node metastasis,they were divided into metastasis group and non-metastasis group.The factors related were analyzed retrospectively.Results The total metastasis rate was 26.7％ (50/187),the metastasis rate of central lymph node was 22.9％ (43/187),and the metastasis rate of lateral lymph node was 11.8％ (22/187).Tumor's diameter more than 5 mm,multiple foci and extrathyroidal extension were related to neck lymph node metastasis of thyroid microcarcinoma (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Neck lymph node metastasis was seen most common in central lymph nodes.Tumor size,multiple foci and extrathyroidal extension were related to neck lymph node metastasis of thyroid microcarcinoma,operation therapy should be routinely performed.

Objective To determine the expression of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors (PPARs), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in rats with obstructive jaundice induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) and elucidate the molecular regulation mechanisms of hepatic injury due to obstructive jaundi(c)e. Methods All rats were sacrificed on the 7th day and 19th day after BDL and blood and liver tissue samples were obtained. SOD enzyme activity was detected by SOD kit. RT-PCR was performed to determine the mRNA expression of PPARs in all groups. The detection of PPARs protein and activation of NF-κB were performed using an immunohistochemical method. Results The activities of normal SOD and CuZn-SOD were decreased compared to the sham group (P＜0.01), and the decrease on 19th day after BDL were more significant. The level of PPARs expression in the BDL groups liver except the PPARβ in the BDL 7th group was reduced compared to the sham group (P＜0.01), and the level on the 19th day after BDL were more significantly reduced. PPARs protein expression was significantly inhibited (P＜0.01) in the sham group. SOD in BDL groups had significant positive correlation as compared with PPARs protein expression (P＜0.01), but NF-κBp65 protein expression had significant negative correlation as compared with PPARs protein expression (P＜0. 01). Conclusion PPARs are inhibited in expression level, and this inhibition becomes more significant as the pathological process progresses. PPARs might be key regulatory factors for SOD and NF-κB. The low expression of PPARs might be one of the important molecular mechanisms in liver injury due to obstructive jaundice.

Objective To evaluate the value of retrospective ECG-gated 256 slices spiral CT technique in the scanning of inferior phrenic artery (IPA).Methods 80 patients with underdone abdominal CTA were divided randomly into two groups (40 patients each)as regular abdominal CTA scanning group and retrospective ECG-gated technique group.And further analysis was done to evaluate the display of IPA branches and the image quality.Results 80 patients were all scanned successfully.40 cases LIPA and 40 cases RIPA were showed in the regular group.80 cases showed 1st level branches of IPA,73 cases with 2nd level,59 cases with 3rd and 43 ca-ses showing 4th level.40 cases LIPA and 40 cases RIPA were showed in ECG-gated group.And the numbers of IPA branches levels were 80,79,71,65,respectively.There is no significant difference in the ability of showing the1st level IPA or their image quality between those two groups (P >0.05);and there is a statistical significance in the ability of showing other levels of IPA and their im-age quality.Conclusion It is feasible that we use retrospective ECG-gated 256 slices spiral CT scanning technique to show the IPA. And it could improve the ability of showing the IPA branches as well as the image quality.

ObjectiveTo analyze the cause of and the prevention for the postoperative complications in adult patients undergoing Lichtenstein herniorrhaphy for inguinal hernia. Methods Retrospective review was made on 334 inguinal hernia cases receiving Lichtenstein repair in our hospital. Results Recurrence was found in 1 case(0 3%). Significant postoperative pain occurred in 5 patients. Four cases (1 2%) suffered from superficial wound infection, and 5 cases(1 5%) were complicated with subcutaneous seroma. Conclusions Lichtenstein′s tension free repair for the treatment of adult inguinal hernia has the advantage of less postoperative pain and low recurrence.

Objective To investigate the effects of 7 5% hypertonic saline (HS) on fluid balance after elective major abdominal surgery Methods Twenty two patients undergoing elective major abdominal surgery were assigned to receive either Ringer lactate solution followed by 4 ml/kg of 7 5% HS (study group, n =11) or Ringer lactate solution (control group, n =11) during the early postoperative period in ICU We compared fluid infusion volumes and urine outputs, fluid balance, and body weight change between the 2 groups Results Urine outputs in the operative day and the first postoperative day in study group were significantly more than in control group [(2?650?531)ml vs (2?046?572)ml, t =2 551?7, P

Objective To investigate the blood transfusion paths in elderly patients in order to ensure the blood transfusion safety in the elderly.Methods Clinical data of elderly patients (aged 60 and over) receiving blood transfusion were selected from January 2008 to December 2013.Data of blood transfusion in different clinical department were analyzed.Results From 2008 to 2013,the number of elderly patients receiving blood transfusion and transfusion volume showed the rising trends.Patients in Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery had the most blood transfusion volume among all surgical departments (9.3U/person),and plasma transfusion accounted for the most with plasma and red blood cells in a 3 ∶ 1 ratio.Patients in Department of Internal Medicine had the most blood transfusion volume among all non surgical departments (15.9U/person),and platelets transfusion accounted for the most with platelets and red blood cells in a 3 ∶ 1 ratio.The oldest patients on average receiving blood transfusion in the top 10 was from Department of Emergency (aged 77 years),and the most common cause was gastrointestinal hemorrhage.The youngest patients receiving blood transfusion in the top 10 was from Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery and Department of Gynecology (aged 69 years),and the most common cause was huge pleural mass and ovarian cancer.Conclusions Blood transfusion for elderly patients should be restrict the indications for transfusion strictly,choose the reasonable transfusion time,blood components and volume.Physiological and functional changes and clinical features of elderly patients should be paid attention to at the same time in order to reduce unnecessary transfusions,particularly the dependence on plasma transfusion and unnecessary collocated blood transfusion,to avoid the overload and adverse transfusion reactions.

Objective To summarize our experience in diagnosis and treatment of splenic tumors.Methods A retrospective study of the clinicopathologic data of 92 cases of splenic tumor was performed.Results There were 47 benign and 45 malignant tumors.The preoperative confirmed diagnostic rate by B-US was 85.87%(79/92),by CT was 91.30%(84/92).Splenectomy was performed in 81 cases,tumor resection or partial splenectomy in 7 cases,needle aspiration of splenic cyst in 3 cases and biopsy in one case.The 1-,3-,5-,10-year survival rate of malignant tumor was 68.29%,31.70%,14.63%,0.24%,respectirely.Conclusions Imaging studies are the main diagnostic methods of splenic tumors.Splenectomy is the treatment of choice for primary splenic malignant tumor.Splenic benign tumor does not require any other therapy after operation.Splenic malignant tumor requires adjuvant treatment.

or ≤50 in each patient. 5-year survival curves were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log-rank test. ResultsWT5”BZ Analysis revealed that among node-negative patients, the 5-yerar's survival rate was 23% higher in patients with more than 50 nodes removed than those with less than 50. For node-positive patients, the difference of 5-year′s survival rate between the related two subgroups reached 36%.WT5”HZConclusion The number of lymph node resected has great impact on the long term survival of patients with colorectal cancer.

Objective To study the relation between the surgical extent and number of lymph node dissection and the effect of metastatic lymph node number on the prognosis of proximal gastric cancer. Method Thirty-one patients with proximal gastric cancer underwent D_2 or D_3 operation, and lymph node were harvested from specimen. The number of lymph node dissection in proximal gastrectomy was compared with that in total gastrectomy. Results A total of 1971 lymph nodes were obtained from the 31 specimens, the mean was 63 per case. There were 57 lymph nodes per case for patients with proximal gastrectomy and 71 per case with total gastrectomy,64 per case with left half pancreaticosplenectomy and 63 per case with splenectomy. According to the new 5th N stage system, the 5 year survival of N_1,N_2,N_3 were 36%, 11%, and 0 respectively. Conclusion Along with the wide invasion of the carcinoma wide resection with extended lymph node dissection is mandatory, reserved left half of the pancreas has no influence on the number of harvested lymphnode, the new quantitative N staging is superior to the old in predicting the prognosis.
