BACKGROUND: It is significant to establish a kind of effective, conve nient and reliable animal model of hypertension. At present, dogs, rats and rabbits are usually used to establish hypertensive models at home and abroad, and the renal artery stenosis induced hypertensive models are ex tensively used to research hypertension and its complication for human be ings because they are convenient and reliable, and there are many methods to establish them, but the effects are to be evaluated. OBJECTIVE: To establish convenient and reliable animal models of ex perimental renal artery stenosis induced hypertension. DESIGN: A randomized grouping design and animal experiment. SETTING: Institute of Cerebrovascular diseases, Medical College Hospital of Qingdao University. MATERIALS: The experiments were carried out in Shandong Key Labora tory for Prevention and treatment of Brain Disease from September 2005 to February 2006. Eighty-one healthy Wistar rats divided into 7 groups accord ing to the method of random number table: unilateral renal artery stenosis group (n=18), bilateral renal artery stenosis group (n=17), unilateral renal artery ligation group (n=15), bilateral renal artery ligation group (n=15), uni lateral renal artery stenosis sham-operated group (n=6), bilateral renal artery stenosis sham-operated group (n=4) and normal control group (n=6). METHODS: Unilateral renal artery stenosis group: Right renal artery was clamped with miniature silver clip, and left kidney was resected after 12 days. Bilateral renal artery stenosis group: Right renal artery was clamped with miniature silver clip, and the same treatment was given to the left side after 12 days. Unilateral renal artery ligation group: Right renal artery was ligated with filament, and left kidney was resected after 12 days. Bilateral renal artery ligation group: Right renal artery was ligated with filament, and the same treatment was given to the left side after 12 days. Unilateral renal artery stenosis sham-operated group: Right kidney was exposed, and returned to the original place without any treatment, and left kidney was resected af ter 12 days. Bilateral renal artery stenosis sham-operated group: Right kid ney was exposed, and returned to the original place without any treatment, and the same treatment was given to the left side after 12 days. Normal con trol group: The rats were not given any treatment. The blood pressure and heart rate were determined with RBP-2 hemomanometer for rats. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The successful rate of model estab lishment, blood pressure and heart rate were observed. RESULTS: Totally 81 rats were used, and 61 of them died, all were in volved in the analysis of results without deletion. ① Blood pressures in the unilateral and bilateral renal artery stenosis groups and bilateral renal artery ligation group were obviously higher than those in the normal control group and bilateral renal artery stenosis sham-operated group [(138.0 ±36.5), (154.2±11.6), (160.5±0.7), (101.3±17.6), (108.3±5.7) mm Hg]. ② The changes of heart rate in the renal artery stenosis group were unstable, and the heart rates in the unilateral and bilateral renal artery stenosis groups, bilateral renal artery ligation group, normal control group and bilat eral renal artery stenosis sham-operated group were (367.5±47.2), (420.2 ±47.8), (386.0±4.2), (390.3±42.4), (417.3±27.5) beats per minute, respec tively. ③ The survival rates in the renal artery stenosis groups (22%, 29%) were significantly higher than those in the renal artery ligation groups (0,12%), and it was the highest in the unilateral renal artery stenosis group.CONCLUSION: The method of clamping bilateral renal arteries can establish stable rat models of hypertension induced by renal artery stenosis.

Objective To compare the analgesia effects of Oxycodone hydrochloride with Sufentanil in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) anesthesia induction. Method Sixty patients scheduled for elective LC, ASAⅠ or Ⅱ , were randomly divided into two groups (30 in each): Oxycodone group (group O) and Sufentanil group (Group S). Induction of anesthesia: group O: Propofol 1.0 ~ 2.0 mg/kg, Oxycodone 0.3 mg/kg, Vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg. Group S: Propofol 1.0 ~ 2.0 mg/kg, Sufentanil 0.3 μg/kg and Vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg. The value of HR, SBP, DBP of the two groups were recorded in the operation room (T0), after anesthesia induction (T1), 1 min after insertion laryngeal mask (T2), the instant of pneumoperitoneum establishment (T3), separation of the gallbladder (T4), the time of wake up (T5), leave the recovery room (T6). The numeric pain rating scale (NRS) were recorded at T4, T5, 4 hours later (T7), 8 hours later (T8), one day later (T9). Then recorded the wake time and additional analgetic cases. Recorded the adverse reactions. Results The average HR, SBP and DBP fluctuations in the two groups were not more than 20.0 % of the basal values. There was no significant difference in wake time between the two groups. There were 11 cases of patients, the NRS>4, in Sufentanil group requires additional analgesics after they wake up, more than Oxycodone group (P = 0.040). The NRS score was lower in Oxycodone group than group S in T5, T7, T8, T9, but they had no statistically significant difference. There was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the two groups. Conclusion 0.3 mg/kg Oxycodone and 0.3 μg/kg Sufentanil for anesthesia induction of LC, the anesthesia and analgesia effect is good, can satisfy the clinical anesthesia and postoperative analgesic requirements. The analgesic effect of 0.3 mg/kg Oxycodone may be comparable or better than 0.3 μg/kg Sufentanil.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and treatment-related toxicity of stereotactic body radiation therapy(SBRT)in patients with medically inoperable stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods SBRT was applied to 30 patients, including clinically staged T1 ,T2(≤5cm)or T3(chest wall primary tumors only), N0, M0 ,biopsy-confirmed NSCLC. All patients were precluded from lobotomy because of physical condition or comorbidity. No patients developed tumors of any T-stage in the proximal zone. SBRT was performed with the total dose of 50 Gy to 70 Gy in 10 - 11 fractions during 12 - 15 days. prescription line was set onthe edge of the PTV. Results The follow-up rate was 100%. The number of patients who completed the 1-, and 2-year follow-up were 15, and 10, respectively. All 30 patients completed therapy as planned. The complete response(CR), partial response(PR)and stable disease(SD)rates were 37%, 53% and 3%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 16 months(range,4-36 months), Kaplan-Meier local control at 2 years was 94%. The 2-year overall survival was 84% and the 2-year cancer specific survival was 90%. Seven patients(23%)developed Grade 2 pneumonitis, no grade > 2 acute or late lung toxicity was observed. No one developed chest wall pain. Conclusions It is feasible to deliver 50 Gy to 70 Gy of SBRT in 10 - 11 fractions for medically inoperable patients with stage Ⅰ / Ⅱ NSCLC. It was associated with low incidence of toxicities and provided sustained local tumor control.The preliminary investigation indicated the cancer specific survival probability of SBRT was high. It is necessary to perform similar investigation in a larger number of patients with long-term follow-up.

Objective To evaluate the imaging features of pneumonia caused by A (H1N1) influenza virus. Methods Imaging data of 51 patients with pneumonia caused by A H1N1 influenza were retrospectively reviewed. All patients underwent mobile chest radiographs and 44 patients underwent CT as well. On the basis of the lesion degree in the lung, the patients were classified into mild, moderate and serious types. Results Mild type showed patchy consolidation at chest imaging in 4 patients. Moderate type demonstrated consolidation and(or) ground -glass opacities more than 2 lung fields in 33 patients, including 30 bilateral and 3 unilateral. Serious type displayed diffuse consolidation and ground-glass opacities, probably accompanying with interstitial lesions in the lungs in 14 patients, including 6 patients with ARDS, 2 with infection and 1 with cutaneous emphysema. Conclusion The imaging features of pneumonia caused by A H1N1 influenza mainly manifest as consolidation and ground-glass opacities, probably accompanying with interstitial changes. The imaging findings show various in patients with infection. Some serious patients even develope to ARDS.

OBJECTIVE: Complication incidence of urinary fistula which frequently occurs following renal transplantation is 3%-10%. Thus, poor processing may cause loss of transplanted kidney. This study was designed to retrospectively analyze urinary fistula following renal transplantation and to summarize the processing experience. METHODS: A total of 27 out of 1 203 patients with urinary fistula following renal transplantation (16 males and female 11 and mean age of 43 years) were collected from Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Command of Chinese PLA from December 2000 to March 2009. Totally, 26 patients accepted donor kidney from corpse, and 1 from living body. All patients were treated with expectant treatment (n=17) including inserting 18Fr Foley catheter alone and draining from the native drainage channel of operative site (n=12) and inserting a ureteral stent (single-J) by cystoscope retrograde approach and inserting 18Fr Foley catheter into the bladder (n=5); exploring operation (n=10) including anastomosing ureter and bladder and placing ureteral stent (n=5) and anastomosing ureter and ureter of recipient and placing ureteral stent (n=5); pedicled omentum grafts to cover and surround stoma after suturing (n=6). RESULTS: Only 1 case was failed because kidney vain was injured in the second operation and the kidney was resected. Another 26 cases were cured. Within the 3 month to 7 years follow-up, the urinary fistulas did not relapse, no stegnosis or hydronephrosis, no urinary tract infection and renal function were normal. CONCLUSION: Rapid diagnosis and treatment for urinary fistulas after renal transplantation is imperative. First mostly patients may be cured by expectant treatment. If not then perform exploratory operation. Using peclicled omentum grafts to cover and surround stoma after suturing for complex urinary fistulas can raise achievement ratio of operation.

Transplantation of the microencapsulated recombinant cells is a novel alternative approach to gene therapy of tumors. The semi-permeable membrane of microcapsule protects cells from host's immune rejection, increases the efficiency of gene transfer and reduces the need for frequent injection. Optimization of the preparation and culture is needed to acquire biological microcapsule with high cell viability and protein production. In this work, we studied the effect of different preparation and culture condition on the microencapsulated recombinant CHO cells growth and endostatin production. The result showed that the inoculum cells growth phase and seeding density potently affected the growth and endostatin production of the recombinant CHO cells in the microcapsule. The exponential growth phase recombinant CHO cells with a seeding density of 1 x 10(6) - 2 x 10(6) cells/ mL microcapsules benefited to the cells growth and endostatin production. The time of preparation was another important effect factor of cells viability, the cells viability decreased with the increase of preparation time and the time of preparation should be under 5h for maintaining the cell viability and endostain production. The highest viable cell density and endostatin production was acquired when the microcapsule percentage was 5% in the culture of the microencapsulated cells, the cell growth and endostatin production decreased with the increase of the microcapsule percentage.
