Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safty of Polymer-free sirolimus eluting-stents(PFSES) in preventing restenosis in porcine coronary model.Methods Bare metal stents(BMS)(n=13),polymer-free bare metal stents(PFBMS)(n=13),polymeric sirolimus-eluting stents(PSES)(n=13) and PFSES(n=13) were implanted in left anterior descending coronary arteries(n=26) and left circumflex coronary(n=26) of 27 swines randomly.Coronary angiography was performed 28 days and 90 days after the procedure.Twelve animals were sacrificed for histomorphologic analysis after 90 days.Results The 28-day(n=24) and 90-day(n=12) outcome by quantitative coronary angiography(QCA) showed significant reduction in luminal loss(LL) in PFSES(LL:0.69?0.49 mm vs 1.27?0.36 mm,P=0.041;0.77?0.44 mm vs 1.33?0.29 mm,P

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safty of bioabsorbable polylactic acid sirolimus eluting-stents(BPSES) in inhibiting neointimal hyperplasia in porcine coronary model.Methods Bare metal stents(BMS)(n=18),mere bioabsorbable polylactic acid polymer coated stents(BPOS)(n=18) and BPSES(n=18) were implanted in left anterior descending(n=18),left circumflex coronary(n=18) and right coronary artery(n=18) of 18 swines in random.Coronary angiography was performed 28 days and 90 days after the stenting procedure and histomorphologic analysis was done in a certain number of animals after 7 days(n=4),18 days(n=6) and 90 days(n=6),respectively.Results The 28-day(n=6) and 90-day(n=6) outcome by quantitative coronary angiography(QCA) showed significant reduction in luminal loss(LL) in BPSES(28-day-LL: 0.54?0.45 mm vs 1.11?0.45mm,P=0.048;90-day-LL:0.42?0.34 mm vs 0.96?0.41 mm,P=0.024)compared with BMS.With similar injury scores,histomorphologic analysis on day 28 showed there was a significant reduction in neointimal tissue proliferation with BPSES compared with BMS control(average neointimal area: 0.90?0.40 mm2 vs 1.88?0.71 mm2,P=0.015).High magnification histomorphologic examination revealed similar inflammation score and endothelialization score between BPSES and BMS.Conclusion Bioabsorbable polymeric sirolimus-eluting stents showed reduction in neointimal hyperplasia with good biocompatibility in porcine coronary model.

Objective To discuss the opportunity of transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) after transrectal prostate biopsy.Methods We analyzed 60 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) who underwent TURP after transrectal prostate biopsy from September 2013 to September 2015.All the patients were divided into either group A or group B in chronological order, with 30 cases in each group.There were no significant differences in age, prostate specific antigen (PSA), prostate volume, hemoglobin level, and international prostate symptom score (IPSS) between the two groups.The group A and group B were treated by TURP at 1 week and 4 weeks after transrectal prostate biopsy, respectively.The parameters including operation time, excised prostate weight, intraoperative total blood loss, bladder irrigation time, and IPSS at 3 months after operation were recorded.Results The operation time, intraoperative total blood loss, bladder irrigation time, and IPSS in the group B were significantly lower than those in the group A [(58.3±6.0) min vs.(62.0±3.3) min, t=2.952, P=0.005;(154.1±15.8) ml vs.(167.4±29.5) ml, t=2.181, P=0.035;(19.2±0.8) h vs.(20.6±2.3) h, t=3.034, P=0.004;(18.3±2.5) points vs.(20.3±2.0) points, t=3.419, P=0.001].The excised prostate weight in the group B was significantly higher than that in the group A [(37.1±4.0) g vs.(33.3±7.8) g, t=-2.341, P=0.024].Conclusions TURP performed at 4 weeks after transrectal prostate biopsy can significantly increase the excised prostate weight, reduce intraoperative total blood loss volume, shorten the operation time and postoperative bladder irrigation time, and improve urinary symptoms.In brief, we recommend that TURP be executed at 4 weeks after transrectal prostate biopsy.

Objective To investigate the effect of glutamine on energy intake and prognosis of severe burn patients in differ-ent pathway.Methods Using retrospective study method,we brought the patients into our study from October 2010 to April 2014 in accordance with the inclusion criteria.Patients who were given the Gln before 5 days after injury through gastric bowel were brought into the EN group,others who were given the Gln after 5 days after the injury through vein were brought into PN groups. A total of 66 patients were included in this study,with 31 cases of EN group and 35 cases of PN group.Total energy intake,external and internal energy intake,nutrients heating,energy intake/energy consumption ratio,blood glucose control,insulin use and viscera damage(the blood urea nitrogen,creatinine,alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,total bilirubin,creatine kinase,lac-tate dehydrogenase),ICU days,hospital stays and mortality were observed in 1,2,3,4 weeks after injury.Results Within a month after the injury,the energy intake of patients in EN group were more than PN group,especially the energy from intestinal canal.Be-sides,the ICU days of patients in EN group were shorter than patients in PN group (all P <0.05).Other indicators of two groups of patients were no significant statistical difference(P >0.05).Conclusion Supplement of Gln may be more conducive to improve the intestinal function in patients with burns may be more conducive to improve the intestinal function in patients with burns,im-prove the degree of tolerance of enteral nutrition,increase energy intake and conducive to improving the prognosis of patients.

Objective To retrospectively analyze CT and MR appearances of hepatic adenoma,and to study the causes of misdiagnosis with review of relative literatures.Methods CT and MRI data of 8 patients with pathologically confirmed hepatic adenoma were retrospectively analyzed.Pre-and post-contrast tri-phase (arterial,portal venous and delayed) CT scans and routine MR .scan were performed in all 8 patients,and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (~1H-MRS) was performed in 2 patients.Results Typical demonstrations were found in 4 patients who were correctly diagnosed.Among the others with atypical findings,3 patients were misdiagnosed as liver cancer and 1 as focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) .The ~1H-MRS curves of 2 adenoma tumor showed that the peak of choline of tumor tissue had no significant difference comparing with that of normal liver tissue around the tumor tissue.Conclusion CT and MRI findings of hepatic adenomas have some characteristics,but atypical manifestations lead to misdiagnose.~1H-MRS may be helpful for the differential diagnosis of hepatic adenoma.

BACKGROUND:Animal modeling has reported that psychological stress can lead temporomandibular joint disease in rats, and there wil be pathological changes.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of psychological stress on the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor and transforming growth factor-β1 in rat temporomandibular joint condylar chondrocytes
METHODS:Forty-eight adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group, 6 rats in the experimental group and 12 rats in the control group. Thirty-six Wister male adult rats in the experimental group were subjected to the fol owing stimulating factors, such as electroshock, keeping stil ness, climate change and food tempting in order to make them under psychological stress. Then, the experimental group rats were executed at 3 weeks after stimulation (3 weeks stimulation group), 6 weeks after stimulation (6 weeks stimulation group) and 6 weeks normal feeding after 6 week stimulation (recovery group), 12 rats were sacrificed at each time point. The 12 rats in the control group were executed at the same time as the last experimental group. The temporomandibular joint specimens were taken to produce slices.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The vascular endothelial growth factor-positive rate of recovery group was significantly larger than that of the 3 weeks stimulation group and the control group (P<0.05);transforming growth factor-β1 positive rate in the 6 weeks stimulation group was significantly greater than that in the control group (P<0.05). It indicated that vascular endothelial growth factor was related with the new blood capil aries repairing tissue, and transforming growth factor-β1 might play a role that stimulates bone resorption in psychological stress.

Objective: To study the effects of total flavonoids of Astragalus on apoptosis of bovine retinal capillary pericytes(BRPs) under high glucose.Methods: The third generation of nearly symphysic bovine retinal vessel pericytes cultivated in vitro were divided into normal control group,high glucose group,and Astragalus total flavonoids groups(0.25,0.5,1.0,2.0 mg/ml) at random.After being incubated for 6 days,apoptosis of BRPs were detected by TUNEL method.TBA method was used to detect the contents of MDA.Xanthine oxidase method was used to detect the SOD activities.Results: Compared with high glucose group,the apoptosis,MDA contents,SOD activity,MDA content/SOD activity of BRPs reduced markedly in total flavonoids of Astragalus groups(0.5,1.0,2.0mg/ml)(P

Objective To set up a clean-up method using gel permeation chromatography(GPC)and ENVI-Carb-SPE.The residues of triadimefon and its metablites,triadimenol A and triadimenol B in ginseng were detected by GC-MS with negative chemical ionization(NCI).Methods The sample was extracted with acetone and the extract was cleaned using GPC and ENVI-Carb-SPE.Based on GC-MS(NCI)the pesticides were separated on a DB-5MS column using a temperature program and were detected with a mass selective detector in selective ion monitoring(SIM)mode.The reference solution was prepared by the blank sample extract to overcome the matrix effect,the external reference method was used to detect.Results Three pesticides were separated within 10 min.The average spiked recoveries in three levels were 90%—105% with relative standard deviations(RSD)below 6%(n=6)in roots and stems.The limits of detection(LOD)of triadimefon and triadimenols were 0.1 and 10 ?g/L.The precision was below 2%(n=6).Conclusion The method is sensitive for the residue analysis of three pesticides and could be used to the triadimefon and triadimenols detection and security control in ginseng.
