Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of argon-helium knife cryoablation combined with radioactive seed implantation in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods:A total of 117 patients with NSCLC admitted to Oncology Department of Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2015 to January 2017 were included in our study.And they were divided into the combination group(n=63)treated with CT guided argon-helium knife cryoablation combined with radioactive 125I seeds implantation and the control group(n=54)treated only with argon-helium knife ablation.The changes of blood routine indexes, tumor markers, tumor ablation target volume and CT value were observed before and 1, 3, 6 months after treatment.Adverse reactions during treatment and the evaluation results of efficacy were compared between the two groups.Patients were followed up for 24 months to observe the recurrence and survival rates between the two groups. Results:In the combination group, seeds of(12.49±4.91)were implanted, and the X-ray exposure was(123.16±42.75)Gy.There was no significant difference in general clinical data between the two groups before treatment( P>0.05). At 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment, as compared with control group the combination group showed the significantly decreased platelet count( t=3.154, 3.586, 2.233, P=0.027、0.019、0.034), while, there was no significant difference in white blood cell count, red blood cell count and hemoglobin level between the two groups(all P>0.05). The levels of carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA), neuron-specific enolase(NSE)and tumor volume were significantly lower in combination group than in control group at 3 and 6 months after treatment( t3=3.142, 2.926 and 4.281, t6=4.094, 5.382 and 4.535, all P<0.05), showing significant improvements of illness.While, the above levels showed no significant differences at 1 month after treatment between two groups( t=1.065, 1.037, P=0.197, 0.255). At each monitoring time, the CT value of tumor target area showed a steady downward trend( P<0.05). During the treatment, the incidence of thrombocytopenia was higher in the combination group than in the control group(47.6% or 30/63 vs.24.1% or 13/54, χ2=6.935, P=0.008), while there were no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative fever, pneumothorax, myoglobinuria, pain, bleeding and nausea and vomiting between the two groups(all P>0.05). After 6 months of treatment, the remission rate was higher in the combination group(73.0% or 46/63)than in the control group(48.1% or 26/54). The survival time and relapse-free time of the combination group were longer than those of the control group[(21.81±4.31)months vs.(18.93±5.94)months, (20.48±5.76)months vs.(16.93±7.14)months, Log Rank χ2=8.229 and 9.656, P=0.004 and 0.002)]. Conclusions:Argon-helium knife Cryoablation combined with radioactive seed implantation can effectively control the local progression of NSCLC, reduce the risk of tumor recurrence, and has high safety.

Sensory, chemical, microbiological quality and bacterial flora on fresh Pseudosciaena crocea were qualitatively and quantitatively investigated. The results showed that total viable counts and total volatile basic nitrogen reached 5. 51?0. 25Log10cfu/g, 7. 84?2. 25mg/100g respectively. 279 strains of bacteria were isolated and 84.2% of them were gram negative bacteria, a small percentages of gram positive bacteria were detected (6. 1% ) . The predominant bacterial floras were composed of Enterobacteriaceae (14. 7% ), Aeromonas spp. (12. 5% ), Acinetobacter spp. (11. 5% ) and Moraxella spp. (11. 1% ) . A few percent of Pseudomonas spp. , Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and other bacteria were also found. The high number of Enterobacteriaceae showed that bacterial contamination on Pseudosciaena crocea, was mainly from cultural water field and polluted seriously by non-borne bacteria, and it should be paid attention to.

Objective To analyze the etiology of cerebral ischemic complications occurring in perioperative period of interventional therapy for intracranial aneurysms,and to discuss its prevention and treatment.Methods From January 2011 to March 2015,a total of 1106 patients with intracranial aneurysms underwent interventional therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University,China.Among the 1106 patients,48 patients developed cerebral ischemic complications;their clinical data and the imaging materials were retrospectively analyzed.The factors associated with complications,the effective therapeutic scheme and the clinical preventive methods were discussed.Three months after the treatment,the recovery of neurological function was assessed with modified Rankin Scale (mRS).Results The causes of ischemic complications were,in order of decreasing frequency,cerebral vasospasm/unable elimination of microemboli (n=19),thrombus (n=16),impaired blood flow of adjacent perforating or distal vascular branches caused by embolization (n=6),intra-procedural hypotension (n=4) and cerebral edema (n=3).Combined treatments,including integrated anticoagulation,anti-platelet aggregation,anti-vasospasm,medication of elevating blood pressure,endovascular intervention,etc.were adopted.The patients were followed up for 3 months.Thirty-four patients (70.8％) obtained a mRS of ≤2 (no serious sequelae),and mRS＞2 (poor prognosis) was seen in 14 patients (29.2％).Conclusion The etiology of cerebral ischemia occurring during interventional treatment of intracranial aneurysms is complicated.It is necessary to take useful measures such as individualized anticoagulation,anti-platelet aggregation,anti-vasospasm,etc.during perioperative period of interventional therapy.The procedure-related complications can be effectively treated with interventional therapy and reliably prevented by careful and skilled surgical manipulation.

Objective To investigate the optimal concentration and site for ozoneadministration to relieve neuropathic pain in rats. Methods Twenty-four adult male rats with sciaticnerve injury (SNI) were randomized equally into 4 groups, and received ozone injections for analgesia atdifferent sites, namely the operative site, the sciatic nerve, the L5 spinal nerve or the operative site inaddition to the L5 spinal nerve. Another 4 groups of rats with SNI (n=6) had ozone injections at theconcentrations of 40, 50, 60, or 70 μg/mL, all administered at both the operative site and the L5 spinalnerve. The analgesic effects of the ozone injections were evaluated using paw withdrawal threshold test inall the rats. Results In rats with ozone injection at both the operative field and the L5 spinal nerve, themechanical pain threshold was significantly increased in comparison with that in rats with injections atother sites (P<0.05), but different doses of ozone simultaneously injected at the two sites did not producesignificant differences in the pain threshold (P>0.05). Conclusion Ozone produces obvious analgesiceffects in rats with SNI-induced neuropathic pain when injected at both the operative site and thespinal nerve, and ozone within the concentration range from 40 to 70 μg/mL has similar analgesic effect.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the therapeutic effects of mitral valve repair for the treatment of the anterior leaflet prolapse of mitral valve.

METHODSFrom November 1998 to October 2007, 210 patients with severe anterior leaflet prolapse of mitral valve underwent valve repair. The condition of valve was preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative assessed with echocardiography.

RESULTSEdge-to-edge repair technique was used in 134 cases (63.8%). The cardiac function was NYHA class I in 168 cases and class II in 40 cases after operation. Patients were followup for 1 - 150 (25.7 +/- 29.0) months, two patients (0.95%) died of postoperative low cardiac output syndrome. Echocardiography examination indicated that the mean JP2 postoperative left atrial diameter was (37.7 +/- 9.2) mm against the preoperative value of (47.5 +/- 12.7) mm (P < 0.05), the mean postoperative left ventricular end-diastolic diameter was (51.7 +/- 7.9) mm against the preoperative value of (67.7 +/- 10.3) mm (P < 0.05), the mean postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction was (62.2 +/- 3.2)% against the preoperative value of (52.2 +/- 6.4)% (P < 0.05), and the mean preoperative regurgitation area was (10.4 +/- 4.1) cm(2) against the postoperative value of (4.1 +/- 1.7) cm(2) (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSOptimal outcome was achieved by appropriate edge-to-edge technique or other mitral valve repair techniques for anterior leaflet prolapse of mitral valve. Edge-to-edge technique is a reliable and efficient surgical technique.
