1.Correlation between clinical parameters of multi-thermotherapy and therapeutic effect in cancer treatment
Journal of International Oncology 2008;35(11):835-838
Although single thermotherapy has certain curative effect for cancer treatment,it normally leads to the recurrence of tumor in clinical application.Multi-thermotherapy could be an effective approach to solve the problem.Multi-thermotherapy not only kills the tumor cells by heating cells above the physiological temperature,but also induces the anti-tumor immunity of the body to further kill the tumor cells.In order to obrain optimal treatment effect,the time interval of thermotherapy is often set once or twice a week for the consideration of thermotolerance.

Objective To discuss the application of endoscopic techniques in the treatment of calculus of intrahepatic or extrahepatic duct. Methods Laparoscopy in conjunction with duodenoscopy or cholangioscopy was adopted in 96 cases of calculus of intrahepatic or extrahepatic duct, including 72 cases of cholecystolithiasis complicated by choledocholithiasis, 16 cases of simple choledocholithiasis and 8 cases of left intrahepatic duct calculus complicated by choledocholithiasis. The surgical procedures included laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) combined with EST (37 cases), LC combined with cholangioscopic exploration (54 cases), and laparoscopic left hepatic lobectomy combined with cholangioscopic exploration (5 cases). Results Postoperative re-examination revealed no residual calculus in 93 out of 96 patients. Small amounts of biliary leakage occurred in 4 patients and healed spontaneously within a mean time of 10 days. No other severe complications took place. A conversion to open surgery was required in 3 patients, 2 of which were high bile duct stricture and 1 of which were severe portal adhesion. Conclusions Endoscopy in the treatment of calculus of intrahepatic or extrahepatic duct is feasible. Proper application of multiple endoscopic techniques is a safe, effective and minimally invasive means for the treatment of cholelithiasis.

Objective In this research,the relationship between blood estrogen level and periodontitis in rats was studied. Methods Twenty-four female Wister rats were randomly divided into three groups:control group,sham operation group and ovariectomized group. Rat chronic periodontitis model was established by ligating the rat's second molar with a steel wire in the sham operation group and ovariectomized group. Serum estrogen level of the rats was detected respectively. Dental X-ray observation,histological examination and immunohistochemistry were employed for the characterization of rat's chronic periodontitis. Results Compared with both control group and sham operation group,a significant decrease in scrum estrogen level was observed in ovariectomized group (P

Objective To investigate the relationship between infection of helicobaeter pylori(Hp) and iron deficiency anemia(IDA) and to explore effective clinical treatments for patients with Hp associated IDA . Method 1. The Hp infection ratio of 40 chronic gastritis with IDA and 42 patients without IDA were counted up respectively. 2. 36 patients with Hp-positive chronic gastritis were divided into two groups randomly. One group was treated by using Hp eradication therapy in conjunction with oral iron supplement and the other using iron supplement only. The hema-tological parameters before and after treatment are measured and the effectiveness of the treatment was evaluated. Re-sult The Hp infection ratio in chronic gastritis patients with IDA is |figher than that in patients without IDA and the difference is significant. After Hp eradication therapy in conjunction with iron supplement Hb. serum iron and serum ferritin level in Hp associated IDA patients are increased significantly while that for patients treated by using iron sup-plement only have no significant improvement. Conclusion It appears that Hp infection may be related to IDA. When iron supplement treatment has no obvious effect to an IDA patient,lt may suggest a ease of Hp associated IDA. The i-ton supplement treatment has positive effects to IDA patients after Hp eradication.

Objective To compare the difference of entrance dose between CR and amorphous silocon DR system in chest imaging, and to discuss their optimum exposure dose. Methods For CR and DR, different entrance dose was measured by dosimeter in chest phantom. The value of IQFinv was analyzed by CDRAD2. 0 software. Image quality difference between CR and DR was assessed by group t-test. The relationship between image quality and entrance dose was tested by using Pearson correlation analysis. The best IQFinv values in CR and DR system were achieved via ROC curve analysis, and the exposure dose was then calculated. Results There were direct correlation values between entrance dose and the value of IQFinv in CR and DR system, respectively( r =0. 893 ,0. 848 ,P < 0. 01 ) . The linear regression equation for DR was IQFinv =0. 0050 +3. 359, and for CR was IQFinv =0. 005D + I. 651 , where D was entrance dose. The difference of IQFinv value between CR and DR was significant(t = 5. 455 ,P < 0. 05). The best IQFinv value of the two groups from ROC analysis was 3.55. Conclusions With the entrance dose increased, the detection ability of contrast-detail was elevated in the two digital radiography systems. With equal entrance dose, the detection ability of DR in contrast-detail was superior to CR. With equal image quality, DR obviously decreased the radiation dose to the patients.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 320-detector CT in interventional treatment of bronchial artery hemoptysis. Methods CTA and DSA images of 30 patients with bronchial artery hemoptysis were retrospectively analyzed.Spatial anatomical characters of the bronchial arteries,such as the type of branches,origin and opening positions of the bronchial arteries were observed and recorded.Results In 30 patients,6 bronchial arteries distribution patterns were found,and the most common type was R1 L1 (43.3%).83 bronchial arteries were identified using CTA,including 38 on the right and 45 on the left.The right bronchial arteries mainly originated from the intercostal artery (52.6%),while the left bronchial arteries mainly from the descending aorta and aortic arch (82.2%).The opening positions of right and left bronchial arteries were mainly located at the right wall of the descending aorta (78.9%),and anterior wall of the descending aorta (62.2%),respectively.When the cacarina of trachea was used as the reference position,the left and right bronchial arteries were mainly located in the range of above 2 cm to below 1 cm from tracheal bifurcation, accounting for 80% and 89.5%,respectively.Compared with DSA,the sensitivity and specificity of CTA were 97.5% and 100%, respectively.Conclusion 320-detector CT can be used to clearly display the distribution patterns,origin and opening positions of bronchial arteries,and especially to find bronchial arteries with ectopic origin.It is possible to apply 320-detector CT in preoperative routine examination and postoperative evaluation of massive hemoptysis.

Purpose To establish rabbit VX2 tumor model and to explore the relation between perfusion parameters and the expression of the VEGF in the portal vein VX2 implanting tumor emboli. Materials and Methods VX2 tumor was implanted in the portal vein of eight experimental rabbits. Multi-slice CT (MSCT) perfusion scan was performed after tumor formation to measure and compare portal vein tumor thrombus, hepatic blood lfow (HBF) near tumor foci and far away from tumor foci, hepatic blood volume (HBV), probability of surface area product (PS) and mean transit time (MTT). The VX2 tumor emboli were then resected to analyze the relationship between the liver perfusion parameters and VEGF expression using immunohistochemical method. Results MSCT liver perfusion parameters were not statistically signiifcant between foci close to or far away from the tumor (P>0.05). The HBF, HBV and PS within the tumor emboli were higher than that in hepatic parenchyma (P<0.05) and the MTT was higher (P<0.05). There was positive correlation (r=0.711, 0.646 and 0.626, P<0.05) between the HBF, HBV and PS of portal vein VX2 tumor emboli and VEGF expression, and there was negative correlation between MTT and VEGF expression (r=-0.565, P<0.05). Conclusion MSCT perfusion parameters in the portal vein VX2 implanting tumor emboli and the expression of VEGF are positively related. MSCT can evaluate the angiogenesis of portal vein VX2 implanting tumor emboli.
