Objective To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and clinical significance of CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA and LUNX mRNA for detecting micrometastasis by sampling the peripheral blood and regional lymph nodes of lung cancer patients. Methods Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect LUNX mRNA,CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA for micrometastasis by sampling the peripheral blood of 48 lung cancer patients and 44 regional lymph nodes of such patients treated by curative resection. Peripheral blood of 30 patients with pulmonary benign lesions and 10 normal healthy volunteers and lymph nodes of 6 patients with benign pulmonary diseases served as control. Results (1) LUNX mRNA, CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA were expressed in all(35/35) lung cancer tissues. (2) In the peripheral blood from 48 lung cancer patients, 30(62.5%) were positive for LUNX mRNA, 24 (50.0% ) positive for CK19 mRNA and 32(66.7%) positive for CEA mRNA. The positive detection rates of micrometastasis in 44 lymph nodes from lung cancer patients were 36.4% (16 out of 44) for LUNX mRNA, 27.3%(12 out of 44) for CK19 mRNA and 40.9%(18 out of 44) for CEA mRNA. (3) In the 30 blood samples from patients with pulmonary benign diseases, 2 (6.7%) expressed CK19 mRNA, but none expressed LUNX mRNA or CEA mRNA. All the 3 molecular markers were negative in the 10 blood samples from healthy volunteers. In 11 lymph nodes from patients with pulmonary benign lesions, none was positive for any of the three markers.(4)In 44 regional lymph nodes from lung cancer patients,6(13.6%) were positive for metastasis by histopathological examination, with a positive rate significantly lower than that of the RT-PCR ( P

Objective To compare the effects of different levels of controlled low central venous pressure (CVP) on blood loss in patients undergoing hepatic lobectomy. Methods One hundred ASAⅠ -Ⅱ patients, aged 28-78 yr, weighing 39-90 kg, undergoing elective hepatic lobectomy under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into S groups ( n = 20 each) with CVP controlled at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 mm Hg during the course of operationrespectively (groups CVP1-5 ) . Anesthesia was induced with midazolam, fentanyl, etomidate and vecuronium. The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated. Anesthesia was maintained with iv infusion of propofol and remifentanil, inhalation of isoflurane and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium. CVP was maintained at the predetermined levels by restricted infusion or by administration of diuretics or vasoactive agents and so on during operation. The blood loss before, during and after removal of the diseased liver parenchyma ( V1-3 ) was recorded.The liver parenchyma transection area ( TA) was determined and the blood loss per transaction area ( VTA ) was calculated. Fluid infusion and blood transfusion were recorded during the three time periods mentioned above. MAP and HR were recorded before operation, at 5 min after removal of the diseased liver parenchyma was started and at the end of operation. Results Compared with group CVP5, the MAP during removal of the diseased liver parenchyma in groups CVP1,2 , V2 and VTA in groups CVP1-3,and the percentage of patients who needed blood transfusion during operation and the amount of fluid infused before completion of removal of the diseased liver parenchyma in groups CVP1-4 were significantly decreased ( P < 0.05) . Compared with group CVP4 , V2 , VTA and MAP during removal of the diseased liver parenchyma were significantly decreased in group CVP2 and the amount of fluid infused was significantly increased before removal of the diseased liver parenchyma was completed in group CVP,( P < 0.05) .Conclusion When CVP is controlled at 3 mm Hg, the hemodynamics is stable and blood loss is less during hepatic lobectomy.
