Objective To evaluate open surgery vs transurethral management for bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) of small volume. Methods From May 1993 to June 2002,50 patients were surgically treated.Of them 22 underwent open surgery and 28 underwent TURP plus transurethral incision of bladder neck(TUIBN).There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups in age,disease course,preoperative prostate weight and the excised prostate weight.All the surgical procedures were conducted by the same urologist.The efficacy of open surgery and TURP plus TUIBN was comparatively evaluated by IPSS,Qmax and post void residual urine volume(PVR) and hospitalization days. Results The IPSS of those undergoing open surgery decreased from 24.6?3.8 of preoperation to 15.2?3.4 of postoperation ,and the Qmax increased from (8.3?2.9)ml/s to (9.5?3.6)ml/s,and the PVR decreased from(220.0?30.0)ml to(90.0?20.0)ml,and the postoperative hospital stay was 14.2 days.The IPSS of the patients undergoing TURP plus TUIBN decreased from 24.9?4.2 to 5.8?2.7,and the Qmax increased from (8.0?3.1)ml/s to (23.2? 3.8)ml/s,and the PVR decreased from(230.0?28.0)ml to(15.0?4.0)ml,and the postoperative hospital stay was 8.5 days.The postoperative improvement was much greater in the patients undergoing TURP plus TUIBN than those undergoing open surgery as assessed by IPSS,Qmax and PVR (all P

Objective To investigate the relationship between infarct location and prognosis after emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment in patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods Consecutive 121 patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent primary PCI were divided into 3 groups according to the infarct location.Their clinical,ECG,echocardiography and coronary angiography features were analyzed,and the follow-up was made. Results Compared with inferior wall infarction group and inferior wall infarction combined with right ventricular infarction group,anterior wall myocardial infarction group had higher CPK-MB and cTnT,less frequent collateral,reduced ST-segment resolution,higher mortality rates in hospitalization and one year after discharge.On the other hand,inferior infarction combined with right ventricular infarction group had more occurrences of shock and atrial vetricular block or ventricular arrhythmia,more incidence of multivessel disease and thrombus,and higher readmission rate.Conclusion Patients with anterior wall myocardial infarction and inferior wall in

Objective:To study the cytotoxic effects on tumor cell lines Hela,BGC823,MCF-7,L342,H9101,D6 induced by Fas ligand and anti-human DR5 monoclonal antibodies(Anti-DR5 mAb) and the underlying mechanism.Methods:Fas/DR5 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Cytotoxicity exerted by FasL/Anti-DR5 mAb on tumor cell lines was measured by MTT colorimetry and the induced apoptosis was determined by agarose gel electrophoresis.Results:The expression of DR5 on BGC823 and Hela cells were higher and DR5 didn’t express in D6. The expression of Fas on H9101 and L342 were higher and Fas didn’t express in D6. Cell line H9101 and L342 were sensitive to Anti-DR5 mAb and FasL in a dose dependent manner; Cell line MCF-7 and BGC823 were sensitive to FasL but were partially sensitive to Anti-DR5 mAb; Cell line Hela was partially sensitive to FasL but was sensitive to Anti-DR5 mAb; Cell line D6 was insensitive to two apoptosis inductions.Conclusion:Apoptosis induced by Fas ligand and Anti-DR5 mAb vary among tumor cell lines. The underlying mechanism may be relevant to Fas/DR5 mRNA expression,the release of Caspase-8 and Bcl-2.

Objective To explore the causes of death and life expectancy after elimination of main causes of disease in residents of Tianjin. Methods The death registry data of Tianjin residents in 2014 were collected and coded in“international classification of disease, 10th edition”. The crude death rate and life expectancy after elimination of main causes of disease were calculated, respectively. Results In 2014, the crude death rate in Tianjin residents was 70.708 per million, while in male and female were 78.728 and 62.637 per million respectively. The main cause of death in Tianjin residents was non-communicable disease. The top four death causes were heart disease, cancer, cerebrovascular disease and respiratory disease, accounting for 31.5%, 23.6%, 22.2% and 8.3% of the total death. The top four life expectancy lost diseases were heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, cancer and respiratory disease, with a 6.46 year, 3.28 year, 3.11 year and 1.25 year life increase respectively. Conclusion Non-communicable diseases are the major reason of death and life expectancy lost disease in Tianjin residents, which needs urgent effective intervention to control.

Objective: To explore the acute effect of air pollution on mortality for patients with cardio cerebral vascular disease and to provide the basis for disease prevention and control.
Methods: The Mortality for patients with cardio cerebral vascular disease from 2001-01 to 2009-12 was from Tianjin Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the meteorological and air pollution data were from Tianjin meteorological bureau and Tianjin environmental monitoring station respectively. The Single and multiple generalized additive model (GAM) extended poisson regression analysis was performed to calculate the relationship between air pollution and cardio-cerebral vascular disease mortality by controlling the time trends, weather, the day of week and air population.
Results: Results: Single GAM analysis indicated that when the effect of SO2, NO2 and PM10 in the air reached the maximum in the day, the RR values for the mortality in patients with cardio-cerebral vascular disease increased 1.13%[95%CI (0.76-1.51)%], 0.78% [95%CI ( 0.41-1.15)%] and 0.61% [95%CI ( 0.51-0.71)%] respectively; when the average concentration of SO2, NO2 and PM10 increasing 10μg/m3 per day, after 0-5 days, the RR values for the mortality elevated 0.70% [95%CI (0.47-0.94)%], 0.51% [95%CI (0.27-0.74)%] and 0.16% [95%CI (0.06-0.27)%] respectively. Multiple GAM analysis presented that when SO2, NO2 and PM10 increasing 10 μg/m3 per day, the RR values for the mortality elevated 0.77% [95%CI (0.58-0.97)%], 0.41% [95%CI (0.05-0.78) %] and 0.38% [95%CI (0.12-0.64%)%] respectively.
Conclusion: The air pollution could increase the mortality risk in patients with cardio-cerebral vascular disease, it is necessary to establish the prevention system in order to decrease the mortality risk in those patients.
