1.Progress in the thermoablation of colon cancer with liver metastasis
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(2):142-146
Thermoablation is a local treatment effectively used to prevent metastasis of colon cancer in the liver and can retain peripheral normal liver tissues. Ablation therapy is less invasive, easier to use, and more repeatable than surgery. This form of therapy also allows the local control of unresectable diseases. Furthermore, thermoablation can be applied as an alternative therapy for small re-sectable lesions in patients who manifest insufficient hepatic function after surgery or those with severe complications. Ablation therapy can artificially increase the surgical margin, thereby increasing the resection rate in patients. Multiple lesions in the liver and surgically inaccessible or unresectable diseases can also be removed. However, several limitations, including the local recurrence of the disease and treatment-related complications in patients, are also observed. The treatment outcome of thermoablation therapy can be further im-proved because this technique is used as a part of multimodality treatment.

AIM: To compare the effectiveness on 10g/L cyclopentolate and 10g/L atropine on cycloplegia in children before optometry.
METHODS:Eighty eyes of 40 children among 4-12 years old with refractive error were recruited in this study. 10g/L cyclopentolate eye drops were topically administered once per 5min for 3 times and optometry was performed after 45min. Three days after that, 10g/L atropine sulfate eye gel then was used 3 times per day for consecutive 3d and again the refractive diopter was obtained at the 4th d. The differences of the results in retinoscopy refraction were compared between 10g/L cyclopentolate eye drops and 10g/L atropine sulfate eye gel.
RESULTS: Therefraction results of those given 10g/L cyclopentolate eye drops and 10g/L atropine sulfate eye gel were no statistical different in both 4-8 years group and 9-12 years group with myopia (≤-3. 00D) (P=0. 411, 0. 924). The differences of refraction results of both the drugs were significant in 4 - 8 years group with low hypermetropia, medium hypermetropia and high hypermetropia (P=0. 007, 0. 007, 0. 009). No significant difference was found in 9 - 12 years group with low hypermetropia (P= 0. 592), given 10g/L cyclopentolate eye drops and 10g/L atropine sulfate eye gel, but the differences of refraction results of both the ophthalmic preparations above were significant in 9-12 years group with medium and high hypermetropia (P=0. 039, 0. 012).
CONCLUSION:Both 10g/L cyclopentolate eye drops and 10g/L atropine sulfate eye gel have the cycloplegic effects, but their cycloplegic effects are significant different among hypermetropia children. Thus, the reasonable cycloplegic should be chosen according to the specific situation.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common disease in males, which is characterized by persistent discomfort or pain in the pelvic region. As currently used drug therapies fail to produce satisfactory results, it is an urgent task to find new and effective methods for the treatment of CP/CPPS. In recent years, many reports are seen on the extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) for CP/CPPS. ESWT can significantly improve the symptoms of pelvic pain and urination disorders in CPPS patients, and its therapeutic effect is attributed to the improvement of angiogenesis and block of pain nerves.

Objective To explore the effects of citicoline injection into Zusanli point (ST36) on learning and memory function of rats after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods The model was induced with the improved Feeney method. The rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: sham-operation group, control group, acupuncture point saline injection group, intraperitoneal drug injection group and acupuncture point drug injection group with 8 rats in each group. The rats in the acupuncture point drug or saline injection group were treated with acupuncture injection of citicoline or saline daily. The rats in the intraperitoneal drug injection group and control group were treated with intraperitoneal injection of citicoline or saline daily. The treatment continued for 14 d. The learning and memory function was evaluated with the Morris water maze test and passive avoidance test. Results Acupuncture point injection of citicoline can significantly shorten the escape latent period of TBI rats in Morris water tests and extend the latent period of learning and memory of TBI rats (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture point injection is effective on the recovery of learning and memory function of rats after TBI.

Objective To compare cardiac output continuously measured by transesophageal echocardiograph (TEE)with Flotrac /Vigileo system.Methods Thirty -six patients,aged 30 -60years,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status ⅠorⅡscheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH )were included in this study.The radial artery puncture on the left connecting the Flotrac /Vigileo system monitoring was established before anesthesia and ultrasonic probe was inserted into the esophagus after anesthesia induction.The depth of the probe was located at the middle esophagus with monitoring of transesophageal echocardiography(tee).At the same time the value of CO after anesthesia,before and after pneumoperitoneum were recorded and the application of SPSS 13.0 software package for statistical analysis was made.Monadic linear correlation and regression analysis were both used in measured CO. Results Each point,the determination of transesophageal echocardiography(tee)between the CO and the determination of the Flotrac /Vigileo CO,had high correlation(r =0.850,P =0.002).The CO at the time of T2 monitored by TEE group and Flotrac /Vigileo group were (3.3 ±0.2)L/min,(3.2 ±0.2)L/min,which were significantly lower than (5.6 ±0.3)L/min,(5.4 ±0.3)L/min(t =2.248,2.178,P =0.032,0.029).But there were no statistically significant differences at other time respectively(tT =0.102,0.199,0.201,0.124,0.198,PT =0.918,0.887,0.894, 0.908,0.898;tF =0.098,0.189,0.214,0.119,0.112,PF =0.953,0.874,0.898,0.913,0.932).Conclusion The correlation of CO monitored by transesophageal echocardiography(tee)and Flotrac /Vigileo was good,which can be safely and efficiently used in intraoperative monitoring of patients.

OBJECTIVETo comparatively study the effects of Rhubarbs from different regions on blood lipid and antioxi dation of hyperlipidemia rats.
METHODSMale rats were randomly divided into 9 groups ( n = 8) and fed with high-fat diet to replicate the hyperlipidemia model. Meanwhile, Rheum tanguticum was administrated intragastrically at two doses (3.0 g/kg and 1.0 g/kg), once a day for continuous 28 days. The effects of Rheum tanguticum planted in Gannan (RT-GN), Rheum tanguticum planted in Xinin (RT-XN) and Rheum plmatum planted in Lixian (RP-LX) were evaluated through detecting the parameters of blood lipids, blood viscosity and antioxidant system.
RESULTST-GN, RT-XN and RP-LX in the range of 1.0-3.0 g/kg could decrease the blood levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and malonaldehyde (MDA) in blood. Besides, they could reduce blood viscosity, increase high density lipoprotein (HDL) level and upregulate the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). Interestingly, their effects on blood viscosity was obviously in a dose dependent manner. In addition, the effects of RT-GN on LDL, MDA and blood viscosity were not significantly different from those of RT-XN and better than those of RP-LX.
CONCLUSIONThe RT has better hypolipidemic effects than the RP, but RT-GN and RT-XN are not different from the above effects.
