Objective:To compare and analyze the value of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of 1.5T magnetic resonance (MR) in differential diagnosis for localized prostate cancer, chronic inflammatory response and benign hyperplasia.Methods: 80 patients with localized prostate cancer were enrolled in the research. The signal to noise ratio (SNR) of DWI, ADC value and semi-quantitative classification of DWI on lesions were measured, and the diagnostic efficiencies of them were compared by using ROC curve.Results: In the 80 patients with localized prostate cancer patients, there were 52 malignant lesions and 43 benign lesions in peripheral band, and there were 31 malignant lesions and 46 benign lesions in central gland. The ADC values of prostate cancer in peripheral band and central gland were 0.91±0.12 and 0.86±0.15, respectively, and they were significantly lower than that of normal tissue (1.68±0.23 and 1.28±0.31) and benign lesions (1.24±0.21 and 1.12±0.16). The semi-quantitative classifications of DWI for benign lesions were significantly higher than that for malignant lesions in peripheral band and central gland, respectively (x2=20.88,x2=12.14;P<0.05). For the diagnostic efficiency of ADC, the sensitivities of benign and malignant lesions in peripheral band and malignant gland were 91.3% and 79.1%, respectively, and the specificities of them were 89.6% and 70.2%. And they was significant higher than the corresponding sensitivities (71.2% and 51.3%)and specificities (78.4% and 65.8%) of DWI imaging.Conclusion: Both of DWI and ADC of 1.5T magnetic resonance are the important indexes in differential diagnosis for prostate cancer, chronic inflammatory response and benign hyperplasia, while ADC value is better than DWI image in the clinical efficiency.

[Objective]To discuss the basic principles and methods of surgical protocols in treating multilevel cervical disc herniation.[Method]The surgical protocols patients underwent operation based on patient's changes in radiology.Protocols varied from anterior approach discectomy,partial corpectomy with bone grafting and plate fixing;titanium mesh+plate;titanium mesh+plate in major segment and decompression with trepan+cage in secondary segment;combined anterior and posterior surgical procedure.[Result]Totally 96 cases of cervical spondylosis in different types were observed.After average 32 months of follow-up,an overall excellent and good rate in 90% of the cases was obtained.[Conclusion]To choose the appropriate surgical protocol for different multilevel cervical disc herniaion or degenerative myelopathy patients,every treatment should rely on patient's symptoms and changes in radiology.We must check out which vertebra is major segment or secondary segment,generalized or localized,with or without developmental stenosis of cervical spinal canal.Most patients can achieve satisfied prognosis by anterior approach decompression with bone grafting and plate fixing.Intervertebral bone grafting and plate fixing is preferred to single level degenerative.Anterior decompression with approach discectomy,partial corpectomy with bone grafting and plate fixing is preferred to 2 or 3 level degenerative.Combined anterior and posterior surgical procedure is the best method to treat generalized degenerative or obvious stenosis of cervical spinal canal,and continuous type OPLL.In conclusion,the key to excellent prognosis of cervical spondylosis is choosing the right operation for the right patient.

Objective To study the effect of premature physeal fusion of t ri radiate cartilage on hip development. Methods Ten rabbits aged 4 to 5 weeks were used by partial excision of triradiate physeal cartilage on the right hip of ea ch rabbit, and the opposite untreated hip served as control. Postoperative analy sis consisted of radiographic and histological studies. Radiographs of both hips were taken at 2 days and 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks after surgery to evaluate the dev elopment and stability of hips. All rabbits were sacrificed at 12 weeks postoper atively. The gross and microscopic histological changes of the hip joints were s ubsequently assessed. The statistic analysis was performed by paired student’s t test worked out by SPSS software. Results On the operated hips, bone bridge fo rmed 3 weeks after operation at the site of triradiate cartilage. The medial ace tabular walls became thick, and the acetabula were shallow. At 6 and 9 weeks pos toperatively, the thickness of acetabular walls increased gradually, and irregul ar sclerosis appeared on the acetabular roof. The density of femoral head increa sed in 6 of 10 rabbits. At 12 weeks postoperatively, the acetabular cavity was m ore shallow, and the femoral head appeared flat. Subluxation of hip was observed in 5 rabbits. There was significant difference in approximate acetabular index (AAI), acetabular head index (AHI) and the thickness of acetabular wall between the operated and control hips. The mean value of AAI and AHI on the operated hip s at 12 weeks significantly decreased as compared to that at 2 days. Gross inspe ction confirmed that the acetabular cavity on the operated hips was characterist ically shallow with a marked increase thickness of medial wall. The femoral head became flattened, and the cartilage of both acetabulum and femoral head were th inned. Histological study showed thinning and partial loss of the joint cartilag e layer and irregularity of cartilage cells on the operated hip joints. There we re increased amounts of fibrovascular cells deep to the cartilaginous layer. In addition, the femoral head exhibited a zone of necrosis in its superior pole wit h thinning of the epiphyseal plate. On the control hips, structure of acetabulum and femoral head appeared normal congruity. Conclusion Acetabular triradiate ca rtilage injury might result in bony bar formation and premature fusion of physis . Its main pathologic changes are widening of the acetabular medial wall, shallo wness of the acetabular cavity, and subsequent hip dysplasia and dislocation.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of trans-umbilicus two-port laparoscopic procedures in pediatric surgery.Methods Sixty children (age, 3 months～14 years; mean, 3.5 years) with indirect inguinal hernia and 40 children (age, 2.5～14 years; mean, 6.3 years) with appendicitis underwent supra-high ligation and appendectomy, respectively, by using mini laparoscope from January 2003 to December 2003. During the supra-high ligation, the camera and forceps were respectively introduced via the left and right side of umbilical ring, and a hernial-ring needle with suture was brought in at the site of body surface projection of internal ring to apply external knotting. During the appendectomy, laparoscopic instruments were put through the site of right McBurney’s point, and explorations for contralateral hernia or other digestive tract malformations were applied simultaneously. Results All the operations were completed smoothly. The mean operating time was 8.5 min and 55.7 min in hernia repair (per side) and appendectomy, respectively. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 1～2 days in children with indirect inguinal hernia and 5～7 days in children with appendicitis. Follow-up for 3～12 months showed no recurrence of hernia except for 1 case of intraoperatively misdiagnosed latent hernia, which relapsed 2 months after the surgery. Postoperative abdominal cavity infection took place in 2 cases of perforated appendicitis. Conclusions Trans-umbilicus two-port laparoscopic technique is simple to perform, safe and minimally invasive. The technique has fewer complications and gives satisfactory cosmetic results, being highly recommended.

Objective To determine the effects of Che A and CheY proteins of Campylobacter jejuni regulating the bacterial chemotaxis in vitro and colonization in vivo. Methods By using pET42a plasmid and E. coli BL21DE3 as expression vector and expression strain, respectively, prokaryotic expression systems of cheA and cheY genes of C. jejuni strain NCTC11168 was constructed. Rabbits were immunized with the target recombinant expression proteins, rCheA and rCheY, to prepare the antisera. rCheA-IgG and rCheY-IgG in the antisera were separated using DEAE-52 ion exchange column. pBluescript- II -SK was applied to construct suicide plasmid which used to generate cheA gene knock-out mutant (cheA-). A chemotaxis model in vitro of C. jejuni based on DOC-HAP, the chemotactic ability of cheA' mutant as well as the effect of rCheA-IgG and closantel inhibiting the bacterial chemotaxis were demonstrated. The phosphorylation levels of CheA and CheY after DOC treatment were examined by using either rCheA-IgG or CheY-IgG capture method. The difference of colonization ability between cheA- mutant and wild-type of C. jejuni in mice were checked and then compared. Results The constructed prokaryotic expression systems could efficiently express rCheA and rCheY. The data from PCR and sequencing confirmed the cheA gene knock out from cheA- mutant chromosome. cheA- mutant lost its chemotactic ability towards DOC. Both the rCheA-IgG and closantel could inhibit the chemotaxis of wild-type of C. jejuni (P < 0.05 ). When treatment of DOC, the phosphorylation levels of CheA and CheY in wild-type of C. jejuni rapidly decreased (P < 0. 05 ). The colonization ability in murine jejunum of cheA- mutant was also lower than that of the wild-type ( P<0.05 ) . Conclusion Chemotaxis-associated two-component signaling system (Che-TCSS) of C. jejuni are composed of CheA and CheY, and the two proteins are activated by dephosphorylation. CheA in the Che-TCSS play a critical role in chemotaxis in vitro and colonization in vivo of C. jejuni, and this protein can be used as a target for developing novel anti- C. jejuni drugs.

Objective To analyze the sequences of two component signaling system PhoP/PhoQ encoding genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains sensitive or resistant to aminoglycoside antibiotics and to determine the correlation between the PhoQ/PhoP and the resistance. Methods The segments of entire pimQ and phoP genes of P. aeruginosa were obtained by PCR and then sequenced after T-A cloning. Two prokaryotic expression systems of phoQ and phoP genes were constructed and the target recombinant expres-sion products rPhoQ and rPhoP were extracted by Ni-NTA chromatography. Rabbits were intracutaneoualy immunized with rPhoQ and rPhoP to obtain antisera and double immunodiffusion test was used to detect the titers of antisera. The phoQ genes of aminloglycoside antibiotics-resistant P. aeruginosa strains were knocked out by using Red recombination system, and phoQ mutants were identified by PCR plus sequencing and Western blot assay. Tube dilution method was applied to determine MIC values of wild and mutant strains of P. aeruginosa to four different aminoglycoside antibiotics. Results In comparison with the corresponding sequences in GenBank, the similarities of nueleotide and putative amino acid sequences of the cloned phop and phoQ genes were 98.7%-99.6% and 98.7%-100% , and 98.4%-99.8% and 99.1%-100%, respec-tively. Both rPhoQ and rPhoP were successfully expressed using pET-42a and E. coil BL21 DE3 system, and their rabbit antisera with 1 : 4 and 1 : 8 double immunodiffusion titers were also obtained. The deletion of phoQ genes and absence of the products in the two phoQ mutants were confirmed by PCR, sequencing and West-ern blot assay. MIC values of the four different aminoglycoside antibiotics to the two mutants were 1/512-1/2048 as those of their wild strains. Conclusion PboQ/PhoP is a sequence conserved two component sig-naling system of P. aeruginosa, and this system mediates resistance of the microbe to aminoglycoside antibiotics.

This study was aimed to observe the effect of Tao-He Cheng-Qi Decoction (THCQD) on tissue injury of different organs among rats with sepsis. A total of 100 Kunming male SD rats of clean grade were randomly divided into five groups, which were the normal control group, model 6 h control group, model 12 h control group, THCQD 6 h group and THCQD 12 h group. The normal control group received no treatment. The classic CLP method was ap-plied in the establishment of sepsis rat model in other groups. Intragastric administration of saline 1 ml/100 g (weight) was given to each rat in the model group every day. Intragastric administration of THCQD 1 ml/100 g (weight) was given to each rat in the THCQD group every day. The model was established after 7 days. Tissue speci-mens of lung, heart, kidney, liver, and small intestine were collected at 6 h and 12 h after modeling, respectively. Pathomorphological changes of each group were observed by light microscopy and electron microscope. The results showed that compared with the model group at the same time point, pathomorphological changes of tissues of the lung, heart, kidney in THCQD group were not significant. However, pathomorphology of tissues of the liver and small intestine changed significantly in the THCQD 12h group. And there were statistical differences (P < 0.05) between two groups in the score of pathomorphology. It was concluded that THCQD had protective effect on tissues of the liv-er and small intestine among rats with sepsis. However, the mechanism is not clear and requires further research.
