Objective To construct the recombinant plasmid carrying antisense GA cDNA, and evaluate the effect of antisense GA gene on the biological characteristics of colon cancer cells. Methods The recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.0/GA containing antisense GA gene was constructed by gene recombination technique. The recombinant plasmid was transfected into colon cancer cells by lipofectamine. The effect of antisene GA gene on the biological characteristics of colon cancer cell line DH52 was evaluated by MTT and electron microscopy. Results The recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.0/GA was successfully constructed. The growth rate of colon cancer cells decreased, and microstructure of the cells appeared typical apoptotic changes after transfection. Conclusion Antisense GA gene could inhibit the growth of colon cancer cells possibly by suppressing GA gene expression and decreasing GA activity in the colon cancer cells.

Hepaticbililary surgery interventional therapy is a technique which applied to hepaticbilliary diseases for diagnosis and treatment presently.With the development and widespread of interventional therapy technology,there are increasing demands for interventional doctors.But the interventional therapy with invasive and radioactive makes itself impossible for interns to have much chance of actual practice,which becomes the "bottleneck"of the technology development of teaching.Computer-assisted instruction has become an important approach in medical education.It is possible that multimedia courseware can break through the "bottleneck".So we decide to design and make a kind of multimedia courseware adapted to hepaticbililary surgery intentional therapy to improve quality and efficiency of teaching

Objective To observe the effect of low molecular weight heparin(LMWH)on hypercoagulability in extensive severe burn patients.Methods 9 patients were assigned as LMWH treatment group(TG),and another 12 burn patients with the similar extent of burn injury admitted in the same period were assigned as routine treatment group(RTG).All the treatments were the same except 5000U LMWH was given via subcutaneous injection per 12 or 6 hours to the TG group for 3-7days.The patients in normal control group(NCG)consisted of patients receiving plastic surgery.The following coagulation parameters were determined before and after the heparin treatment:prothrombin time(PT),thrombin time(TT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),international normalized ratio(INR),fibrinogen(Fib)and platelet(PLT).Results INR,APTT and PLT in both TG and RTG groups were significantly lower compared with that in NCG before treatment,and Fib in two former groups were higher than that in NCG.Compared with those values before treatment,Fib decreased and PLT increased significantly after LMWH treatment in TG.However,there were no significant changes in other parameters in TG after LMWH treatment.Severe side effects such as haemorrhage were not found in patients in TG.Conclusion LMWH could ameliorate hypercoagulability following severe burns.

Objective To document the feasibility and safety of percutaneous lung cancercryotherapy(PLC)guided by Computer Tomography(CT).Methods 798 CT-guided PLCs in 634 cases with lung cancer from August,2001,to April,2006.CT-visualized immediate ice formation beyond tumor margins was compared to tumor size and location.PLC feasibility and safety was evaluated for the complications postcryoablation.Results All the patients underwent PLC using local anesthesia with minimal or no sedation.Iceball formation was well seen as negative Hounsfield units within soft tissue masses.Tumor size and location were independent determinants of ice coverage:96.4%(n= 343)for masses 4 cm in diameter(P

ObjectiveTo observe the influence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on collagen metabolism of normal human skin fibroblasts and its biological role in the formation of hypertrophic scar.Methods Fibroblasts were isolated and cultured in vitro,and then exposed to different doses of LPS (0.005,0.01,0.05,0.1,0.5,1.0 μg/ml) from E.coli.055:B5 respectively.The expression of proccllagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲand collagenase mRNAs was tested by RT -PCR.Fibroblasts from hypertrophic scar tissue obtained from the same patients in the same culture passage were used as control.ResultsCompared with control group,the expression of procollagen typeⅠ,Ⅲ mRNAs in normal skin fibroblasts increased (0.323 ± 0.041,0.303 ± 0.063,0.391 ± 0.071,0.344 ± 0.086,0.488 ± 0.059,0.401 ± 0.087,0.616 ± 0.107,0.434 ±0.084,0.823 ±0.092,0.542 ± 0.082),while the expression of collagenase mRNAs of normal skin fibroblasts depressed(0.598 ± 0.068,0.556 ± 0.049,0.441 ± 0.043,0.372 ± 0.083,0.260 ± 0.027 ).When LPS was set to the concentration of 0.005 μg/ml,it showed a concentration dependent manner.However,when the concentration of LPS was set to 0.5 μg/ml,the expression of procollagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲ and collagenase mRNAs of normal skin fibroblasts began to decrease (0.451 ± 0.063,0.374 ± 0.072,0.360 ± 0.062).When the concentration of LPS was set to 1.0 μg/ml,the expression of procollagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲ mRNAs (0.162 ± 0.025,0.171 ± 0.061 )were inhibited and the expression of collagenase mRNAs began to increase (0.444 ±0.114).When the concentration of LPS was set to 0.1 μg/ml,the expression of procollagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲ and collagenase mRNAs of normal skin fibroblasts(0.823 ±0.092,0.542 ±0.082,0.260 ±0.027)was similar to that of hypertrophic scar tissue fibroblasts(0.829 ±0.049,0.569 ±0.038,0.277 ±0.059).ConclusionsThis result supported that LPS may be an important factor in collagen metabolism of normal skin fibroblasts and it plays an important role in hypertrophic scar formation.

Objective To characterize the CT features of primary mediastinal seninoma. Methods CT scans of 10 cases with pathologically proved primary mediastinal seminoma were retrospectively reviewed.Results 9 of the 10 cases with the maximal dimension of 6. 5 ～ 18.2 cm( mean = 12. 3 cm) were located in the anterior mediastinum and 1 tumor was located in the middle mediastinum. All of the 10 tumors were solid masses and none of cavity, loculus, fat, calcification or fluid was detected. Areas of low density in the center of tumors were seen in 9 cases. Tumors encircling macrovascular or pericardium were seen in 7 cases. Chest wall invasion was detected in 2 cases. Enlarged lymph nodes in supraclavicular or mediastinum were identified in 4 cases. Lung diseases were found in 5 cases. Bilateral pulmonary metastasis was seen in 1 case. Pleural effusions were detected in 4 cases. Pericardial effusions were evident in 5 cases. Conclusion Most of the primary mediastinal seminomas are solid and large mass without calcification or fat. The tumors are usually located in the anterior mediastinum and areas of low density are usually seen in the center of tumors. Some tumors involve in adjacent structures. Seminoma has some features on CT.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical effects of alprostadil combined with nitric oxide in the treatment of congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension and its effects on immune function. METHODS:In retrospective study,40 cases of congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery department of our hospital during Aug. 2009 to Feb. 2015 were selected and divided into nitric oxide group(single group)and alprostadil+nitric oxide group(combination group)according to therapy method,with 20 cases in each group. Both groups received conventional surgery. Single group was given extrinsic inhalation of nitric oxide(volume fraction of 20×10-6)after surgery;combination group was addi-tionally given intravenous pump of alprostadil 5 ng/(kg·min) for consecutive 72 h,on the basis of combination group. The heart rate,left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),mean arterial pressure,pulmonary arterial pressure,T lymphocyte and immunoglob-ulin(Ig)of children before and after treatment,and the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in above indexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,heart rate,LVEF, mean arterial pressure,the levels of CD3+,IgA,IgM and IgG in 2 groups had no significant change,but CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,Treg/CD4+ were increased significantly;pulmonary arterial pressure,the levels of CD8+,Th1,Th2,Th1/Th2 and Th17/CD4+,supple-ment C3 and supplement C4 were decreased significantly,compared to before treatment. Above indexes in the combination group was significantly better than the single group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Alprostadil combined with nitric oxide could significantly reduce the pulmonary hypertension in children with congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension,improve the level of T lymphocytes,and decrease the levels of supplement C3 and supplement C4 with good safety.

Chronic cough can occur in children of all ages, and the incidence rate and consultation rate increase each year.Clarifying the cause of chronic cough is the key to treatment.At present, there are no convenient, operable and unified standards for etiological analysis of chronic cough in the world.Therefore, the etiological analysis of chronic cough has always been a hot topic in clinical research.With the development of diagnosis and treatment technology, the role of pulmonary function and exhaled nitric oxide in the diagnosis of chronic cough has attracted attention.This article reviews the application value of pulmonary function combined with exhaled nitric oxide in etiology analysis of chronic cough in children, to provide reference for etiology analysis of chronic cough in children.

The level of serum fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF-21) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was determined by ELISA.The results showed that serum FGF-21 level in these patients was higher than that in type 2 diabetic patients [(266.55 ± 21.24 vs 220.32 ± 22.68) ng/L,P＜ 0.01].Serum FGF-21 levels in both groups were significantly higher than that in normal control group [(173.52 ± 16.18) ng/L,P＜0.01].Serum FGF-21 level was positively correlated with waist circumference,blood glucose,and triglyceride.FGF-21 may contribute to the development of NAFLD in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To assess the clinical value of multi-slice helical CT perfusion on the post-operative follow-up of glioma.Methods CT perfusion image was applied to 32 patients with glioma after operation.Various perfusion parameters,include cerebral blood volume(CBV),permeability surface(PS),relative cerebral blood volume(rCBV)and relative permeability surface(rPS)were measured on recurrent area,nonrecurrent area and normal cerebral area respectively.SPSS 12.0 statistical software was used.Independent t test was used to compare the differences.Results In the recurrent group(16 cases),the value of CBV in creased in 12 cases and was normal in the other 4 cases.The value of PS increased in all the cases of recurrent group.The value of rCBV exceeded 2.6 in 10 cases,among which the biggest value of rCBV was 4.01.The mean value of rCBV was 2.67 and the mean value of rPS was 6.32;In the non-recurrent group(16 cases),the value of CBV was nearly normal in 7 cases,increased in 2 cases and decreased in the remaining 7 cases.The value of PS was nearly normal in 11 case,decreased in 3 cases and increased in the remaining 2 cases.The values of rCBV were all less than 2.6 and the biggest value of rCBV was 2.14.The mean value of rCBV was 0.99 and the mean value of rPS was 1.42.The statistic significance was obtained for all the parameters when compared the recurrent group with the non-recurrent group(P＜0.01)and with the normal cerebral area(P＜0.01).When compared the non-recurrent group with the normal cerebral area,none of the parameters had statistic significance(P＞0.05);The statistic significance was obtained for rCBV and rPS when compared the recurrent group with the non-recurrent group(P＜0.01).Conclusion CT perfusion image is valuable in determining glioma recurrence after operation.
