Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) is now being studied much. Most is about its laboratory trials. We treated gynecologic carcinoma patients with TNF and chemotherapeutic agents. The result showed that their nearly effect was clear, but their longer effect can not be comfirmed. So we should study continuously.

Objective To study the biofilm formation ability and related gene distribution of Staphylococcus (S .) aureus iso‐lated from urinary tract infections to provide the theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of clinical infection .Methods The minimal inhibitory concentration was detected using the agar double dilution method .The bacterial adhesion ability was deter‐mined by flat colony counting method .The biofilm formation ability was analyzed by the 96‐well crystal violet staining method .The biofilm‐associated genes were detected by PCR amplification .Results Eleven clinical strains of S .aureus were high resistant to pen‐icillin and erythromycin ,whereas were all sensitive to vancomycin and nitrofurantoin .All the isolates had a strong ability of adhe‐sion ,but the biofilm formation ability was weak .Among them ,the icaAD and icaBC genes were amplified in 10 S .aureus isolates . Conclusion The adhesion ability and biofilm formation ability of S .aureus isolated from urinary tract infections have the strain differences ,and ica is an important gene of S .aureus biofilm formation .

AIM　To study the effect of desipramin e (DMI) on proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction of rat glioma C6 cel ls. METHODS　Cell proliferation w as measured by MTT colorimetric assay and cells undergoing apoptosis were determ ined by electron microscope and flow cytometry. The expression of bcl-2 was eva luated by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS　DMI could result in the c oncentration-dependent inhibition of C6 cell proliferation and lead to arrest i n G0～G1 phase of cell cycle. The value of IC50 and 95% confidence lim its were 20.7(17.3～24.2) μmol*L－1.DMI（40 μmol*L－1）-indu ced apoptosis showed classical apoptotic morphology and the hypodiploid peak ap peared on the histogram of FCM in a concentration-dependent manner, which could be abrogated by cycloheximide(1.8 μmol*L－1). Meanwhile, DMI (10 μmol *L－1) could down-regulate the expression of apoptosis associated gene b cl-2. CONCLUSION　DMI could inhibit cell proliferation in a con centration dependent manner and induce typical apoptosis of C6 cells.

Objective To evaluate the role of rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACCP) and anti-keratin antibody (AKA) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods Serum levels of RF, ACCP and AKA were examined in 82 RA and 56 non-RA patients and their sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of RA were exmined. Statistical analysis was performed to test the association between ACCP/AKA and number of tender joints and swollen joints, ESR, CRP, disease activity score (DAS) or Ritchie's articular index (RAI). Results ROC curve was performed for each single auto-antibody and various combinations of any two of the above antibodies. The area under the ROC curve was over 0.5 (P<0.05). The specificity of ACCP and AKA was 91.1% and 92.9% respectively. RF, ACCP and AKA were all sensitive markers for the diagnosis of RA and the sensitivity could be as high as 95.1% when one of these markers was positive. There were statistical differences in the number of swollen joints, ESR and DAS between ACCP positive group and ACCP negative group (P<0.05) and statistical significant difference was observed in tender joint count, swollen joint count, ESR and DAS between AKA positive and negative groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Combined test of ACCP, RF and AKA is useful in routine RA diagnosis.ACCP and AKA may be clinical markers for predicting disease activity and prognosis.

Objective To investigate effects of different concentrations of dexmedetomidine on onset time and clinical time-effect of rocuronium in the processes of the total intravenous anesthesia.Methods Sixty patients with elective anesthesia breast modified radical mastectomy,aged 26 to 55 years,were randomly divided into four groups of 15 patients.Group A (control group):uniform within 10 min before induction of anesthesia saline infusion (NS ; 0.25 ml/kg) ; group B:dexmedetomidine given initial dose 0.3 μg/kg uniform within 10 min before induction of anesthesia infusion finished,anesthesia period 0.3 μg/(g · h) continuous infusion until the end of surgery; group C:dexmedetomidine given initial dose 0.6 μg/kg uniform within 10 min before anesthesia infusion finished,during anesthesia with continuous infusion 0.6 μg/'(kg · h) until the end of surgery ; and group D:dexmedetomidine given initial dose 1 μg/kg uniform within 10 min before anesthesia infusion finished,during anesthesia to 1 μg/(kg · h) continuous infusion to the end of surgery.Patients after the burglary were under multi-monitor vital signs monitoring blood pressure (BP),heart rate (HR),oxygen saturation (SPO2),electrocardiogram (ECG),and after intubation monitoring end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2),recording time T0 and T25.Results No significant difference was found at the T0 time in each group.However,the T25 time (48 ± 6) min in group C and (51 ±6) min in group D was significant longer than that (40 ±6)min in group A (P ＜0.05).The mean artery pressure(MAP) of group C and D [(88.76 ± 7.06)mmHg,(87.89 ± 6.95)mmHg] were significantly lower than group A after dexmedetomidine infusion 5 min later(P ＜ 0.05); The HR of groups B and C [(60.80 ± 7.11)bpm,(63.31 ± 5.78)bpm] were significantly lower than group A before induction (P ＜ 0.05).The HR of group D was significantly lower than group A before induction and after infusion 5 and 30 min later[(66.40 ± 9.49) bpm,(60.52 ± 7.45) bpm,(61.32 ± 7.11) bpm,P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Under the status of total intravenous anesthesia,different concentrations of dexmedetomidine did not affect the onset time of rocuronium,but dexmedetomidine given up to a certain concentration could enhance the clinical time-effect of rocuronium.

AIM To study the effect of desipramine (DMI ) on proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction of rat glioma C6 cells. METH ODS Cell proliferation was measured by MTT col- orimetric assay and cells undergoing apoptosis were determined by electron microscope and flow cytometry. The expression of hcf-2 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS DMI could result in the concentration- dependent inhibition of C6 cell proliferation and lead to arrest in GO - G1 phase of cell cycle. The value of Ica and 95% confidence limits were 20.7(17 .3~24 .2) ?mol?L~ 1. DMI(40 ?mol? L-l )-induced apoptosis showed classical apoptotic morphology and the hypodiploid peak appeared on the histogram of FCM in a concentration- dependent man ner, which could be abrogated by cycloheximide(1. 8 ?mol? L- １ ). Meanwhile, DMI (10 ?mol? L- 1 ) could down-regulate the expression of apoptosis associated gene hcl-2. CONCLUSION DMI could inhibit cell proliferation in a concentration dependent manner and induce typical apoptosis of C6 cells.

Robotic system helps surgeons in performing surgery. Currently Da Vinci system is the most popular. Da Vinci system has been used for the stomach and bowel diseases in 27 cases(18 cases of stomach and 9 cases of colon and rectum) in the Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. Accurate preoperative staging is crucial, and Da Vinci system is advantageous in lymph node dissection, preservation of nerve plexus, and complete resection of mesorectum. Adoption of gastrointestinal tract reconstruction technique should depend on the operation and experience in surgery. Though Da Vinci system has limitations and the cost is high, it is believed to be the future trend.
