Objective To explore the before taking finasteride on transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate(TUPKVP)patients about IPSS,QOL,Qmax,PVR and other indicators.Methods 180 cases with benign prostatic hyperplasia were randomly divided into observation group and control group,90 cases in each group.Observation group and control group were given conventional therapy and the observed patients took 5 mg of finasteride everyday one week before surgery,all patients were followed up for 1 month.The two groups of TUPKVP patients were compared about IPSS,QOL,Qmax and PVR,intraoperative blood loss,operation time,irrigation fluid volume indicators.Results 180 patients were given successfully TUPKVP surgery.IPSS,QOL,Qmax and PVR contrast were significantly improved after treatment(t=5.11,7.01,3.06,6.17,11.82,4.13,4.52,5.17,all P＜0.05).IPSS,Qmax,PVR of the observation group after treatment was significantly better than that of the control group(t=11.35,5.26,3.12,all P＜0.05),the QOL difference between the two groups after treatment was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).The cure rate of the observation group was 87.8％,which was significantly higher than 63.33％ in the control group(x2=14.56,P＜0.05).Intraoperative flushing fluid volume,intraoperative blood loss,duration of surgery in the observation group were significantly different compared with the control group,(t=21.15、43.12,5.33,all P＜0.05).Conclusion The preoperative taking finasteride can reduce TUPKVP blood loss and flushing fluid volume,shorten operation time and effectively improve the security of the operation.

Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common clinical disease that seriously threatens human health and life. Accurate location of the upper airway obstruction is the key to the diagnosis and treatment of OSAHS. Acoustic pharyngometry uses sound reflection to quickly assess the cross-sectional area and volume of the upper airway. Acoustic pharyngometry represents a simple, quick, non-invasive method for measuring upper airway dimensions which could predict sleep apnea risk. In this article we sought to introduce the application of acoustic pharyngometry in the diagnosis and treatment of OSAHS.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of prenatal ultrasound with magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)in the abnormalities of fetal urinary reproductive system,and explore the value of combining prenatal ultrasound and MRI in diagnosis of fetal urinary and reproductive system abnormalities.MethodsTwenty-seven fetal abnormalities in urinary reproductive system detected by prenatal ultrasound received MRI examination within 24 hours after ultrasound,confirmed by autopsy or clinical follow-up.The results of prenatal ultrasound and MRI were analyzed retrospectively.Results Ultrasound,MRI,autopsy or after birth,postpartum follow-up confirmed 27 cases of Genitourinary system anomalies,including 2 cases of hydronephrosis,renal agenesis in 6 cases,14 cases of renal cystic disease,renal fusion in 3 cases,1 case of renal tumors,ovarian cyst in one case of crown .Fetal ultrasound can diagnose the majority of the genitourinary system anomalies (25/27),MRI can diagnose fetal anomalies of 26 cases of genitourinary system.Conclusion Ultrasound could diagnose the majority of fetal abnormalities in urology reproductive system accurately.However,combining ultrasound and MRI could establish more precise estimation in urology reproductive system,such as the level of obstruction of urinary system in hydronephrosis,the pulmonary hypoplasia secondary to urology system abnormalities,and location of cyst in the renal parenchyma or in the renal capsule.

ve To understand the levels of trace elements in hair of patients with hypertension disease and coronary heart disease. Methods The contents of zinc, copper, manganese and iron in hair were determined among 45 patients with hypertension disease, 36 patients with coronary heart disease and 40 healthy controls by flame-atomic absorption spectrophotometry respectively. Results The contents of zinc and the ratio of the contents of zinc vs the contents of copper in hair of patient with hypertension disease and coronary heart disease showed significantly higher levels compared with those of healthy controls (P

15mm~2)of dural sac cross-sectional area to values smaller than 75 mm~2 was found during examination in axial loading,or if a suspected disc herniation,narrow lateral recess,narrow intervertebral foramen,or intraspinal synovial cyst changed to being obvious at the axial loading examination,they were regarded as additional information.Results After axial loading CT examination,AVI was found in 16 of 40 patients.A significant decrease of dural sac area was found in 13 patients.Intervertebral disc herniation was more severe in 7 patients,lateral recess or interverbral foramen narrowed in 4 patients,no intraspinal synovial cyst was found.After axial loading MRI examination,AVI was found in 19 of 60 patients.A significant decrease of dural sac area was found in 13 patients.Intervertebral disc herniation became severe in 10 patients,lateral recess or interverbral foramen narrowed in 8 patients,no intraspinal synovial cyst was found.AVI was found in 32 of 79(40.5%)patients with sciatica and 2 of 20(10.0%)patients with low back pain(?~2=7.45 P

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect and toxicity reaction of Oxaliplatin com- bined with XeLoda in the treatment of 42 patients with advanced colorectal cancer.Methods All the pa- tients were treated with Oxaliplatin(130 mg/m~2,ivgtt for 2 h,d1)combined with XeLoda(2000 mg?m~(-2)?d~(-1), po,bid,d1 to d14).The regime was repeated every 21 days for at least 3 consecutive cycles.Results The to- tal response rate was 40.5%(17/42)in which 2 got CR and 15 PR.24 patients got Kamofsky score increased. The major toxic effects were alopecia,peripheral neuritis,gastrointestinal tract reactions and myelosuppression. Conclusion Oxaliplatin combined with XeLoda regimen is effective in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer,and its toxicity is tolerable.It is worth studying in the future.

Objective To study morphological changes of rabbit artery endothelial cell injury and atherosclerosis caused by high fluoride and the role of selenium. Methods Twenty healthy male New Zealand white rabbits, body weight (2.0 ± 0.5)kg, were randomly divided into control group(drinking deionized water, fed basic diet), fluoride group(drinking fluoride 100 mg/L deionized water, fed basic diet), selenium group(drinking selenium 1 mg/L deionized water, fed basic diet), fluoride plus selenium group(drinking fluoride 100 mg/L deionized water, selenium 1 mg/L of deionized water, fed basic diet). The experimental period was 6 months. At 0, 3, 6 months of the experiment, serum fluorine and selenium levels were determined. At the end of the experiment,thoracic aorta was collected to observe its pathology and ultrastructural changes. Results Serum fluoride was significantly higher at the 3rd and the 6th month of experiment(all P ＜ 0.01 ) in fluoride group[ (0.589 ± 0.146),(0.772 ± 0.175)mg/L] and fluoride plus selenium group[ (0.502 ± 0.094), (0.693 ± 0.158)mg/L] than in control group[ (0.174 ± 0.002), (0.208 ± 0.031 )mg/L] and serum fluoride was significantly higher at 6 months than at 3 months(P ＜ 0.05 ) in fluoride group. Serum selenium was significantly higher at the 3rd and the 6th month of experiment (all P ＜ 0.01 ) in selenium group[ (0.252 ± 0.022), (0.319 ± 0.052)mg/L] and fluoride plus selenium group[ (0.239 ±0.016), (0.294 ± 0.018)mg/L] than in control group[(0.135 ± 0.014), (0.167 ± 0.019)mg/L], and serum selenium was significantly higher at the 6th month than at 3rd month of experiment in selenium group(P ＜ 0.05). Endothelial cell apoptosis indices were (4.92 ± 1.32)%, (30.30 ± 6.80)%, (6.57 ± 2.14)% and (14.29 ± 2.99)%, respectively in control group, fluoride group, selenium group and fluoride plus selenium group. Their main effect of fluorine and selenium was statistically significant (F = 106.833,20.082, all P ＜ 0.01 ). There were antagonistic effect between fluoride and selenium(F = 30.402, P ＜ 0.01 ). Pathological changes of rabbit aortic endothelial cells in fluoride group included endothelial with attached fibrin and red blood cells, and structural of the cells changed, with serious vascular injury; in fluoride plus selenium group apoptosis of endothelial cells decreased, with reduced number of attached red blood cells and fibrin, endothelial cell structure normal, the extent and scope of vascular damage significantly reduced. Conclusions Appropriate amount of selenium inhibits the apoptosis of endothelial cells induced by high fluoride, reduces aortic structural damage caused by high fluoride, and maintains the integrity of endothelial cells, thereby antagonizes the vascular damage and atherosclerosis induced by high fluoride.
