OBJECTIVETo search for an optimal protocol and freezing conditions for the cryopreservation of microamount round spermatids of the mouse.

METHODSWe compared the survival rates of frozen-thawed microamount round spermatids of the mouse achieved by vitrification or standard slow freezing with different concentrations of glycerol (5, 7, or 9%) and different lengths of equilibrium time (0, 15, 30, 45, or 60 min).

RESULTSUnder the conditions of 7% glycerol and 30 min equilibrium, both vitrification and standard slow freezing achieved high survival rates of spermatids, and the former obtained an even higher rate than the latter ([72.9 ± 15.4]% vs [58.2 ± 17.7]%, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONA high rate of frozen-thawed microamount round spermatids of the mouse can be achieved by vitrification under the conditions of 7% glycerol and 30 min equilibrium.

Objective To evaluate the value of CT in the diagnoses and treatment of the liquid in the renal sub capsule.Methods The spiral CT images and clinic material of the liquid in the renal sub capsule were concluded in 25 cases.Results The total accuracy of CT showed 100% for the liquid in the renal sub capsule and reliable for the injury of liver and spleen,fracture of lumbar vertebra and abdominal accumulation of water.Conclusion CT diagnoses is the evidance to choose treatment for the liquid in the renal sub capsule with conservation,intervention,or operation.

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the optimal regimen for patients with inoperable locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC).The application of new technologies such as positron emission tomography (PET)/CT and four dimensional CT (4D-CT) enhances the accuracy of radiotherapy and decreases adverse reaction.Induction chemotherapy and consolidation chemotherapy do not show benefit to survival.The targeted therapy and immunotherapy have the potential of improving the outcomes of inoperable LA-NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the influence of nebulized Pulmieort respules inhalation after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS)on the expression of epithelial Na~+ channel(ENaC)protein in nasal mucosa. Methods Forty-four patients with nasal polyps undergoing ESS were randomly divided into Pulmieort respules treatment group(n=21,nebulized Pulmieort respules inhalation for 10 d after ESS)and Rhinocort control group(n=23,Rhinoeort aqueous nasal spray for 10 d after ESS).All the patients were performed biopsy of membrane on the residual middle turbinate 14 d after ESS,eosinophils (Eos)and neutrophils(Neu)per hundred inflammation cells were counted under microscope during ESS and after ESS,and the expression of ENaC protein was detected by immunofluorescence assay. Results The percentages of Eos and Neu decreased in two groups after treatment,and the percentage of Neu in Pulmieort respules treatment group was significantly lower than that in Rhinoeort control group(P<0.05).The expression of ENaC protein after treatment in Pulmieort respules treatment group was significantly lower than that in Rhinoeort control group(P<0.01). Conclusion Application of pulmieort respules after ESS can decrease Neu infiltration and inhibit expression of ENaC protein,which can relieve acute inflammation and edema of nasal mucosa.

ObjectiveTo evaluate and compare the prognosis of idiopathic macular holes (IMH) and traumatic macular holes (TMH) treated by pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Methods The clinical data of 72 IMH eyes and 55 TMH eyes, which were treated by PPV between November 2001 and December 2007,were retrospectively reviewed. The visual outcomes and macular anatomic closure were evaluated, and their relationships with prognostic factors including the size of macular hole (MH), preoperative visual acuity (VA) and duration of disease were analyzed. Results The closure rate of IMH (100. 0%) was significant higher than that of TMH (85.5%) (P=0. 001). The postoperative VA of IMH and TMH were (0. 25±0.02) and (0. 21±0. 21) respectively, both significantly increased compare to their preoperative VA (t=-6. 841, -4. 093; P=0.000). VA-increased IMH and TMH eyes had same VA (χ2=3. 651, P=0.07).Pre-PPV VA≥0. 1 IMH eyes had better outcomes than Pre-PPV VA＜0. 1 IMH eyes (χ2 = 12.04, P=0. 001), while Pre-PPV VA had no effects on TMH outcomes (χ2=0. 371, P=0. 486). IMH eyes with small holes had better outcomes (t=2. 476, P=0. 016), and TMH eyes with small holes had better closure (t= -4. 042, P＜0. 001). The duration of disease had no significant influence on TMH visual (χ2=0. 704,P = 0. 401 ) and anatomic (χ2 = 0. 166, P= 0. 684) outcomes. Conclusions PPV is an effective treatment for MH. The closure rate of IMH is higher than that of TMH. The diameter of MH and preoperative VA are major factors for IMH outcomes, and the duration of disease and preoperative VA have no effects on postoperative VA in TMH.

OBJECTIVE: A series of studies has been reported concerning deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement. This paper is aimed to summarize the occurrence factor and preventive measures for deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement.METHODS: A computer-based online search of VIP database was undertaken by the first author to identify the articles about the deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement published in between January 1994 and October 2009 with the key words of"artificial hip replacement and deep venous thrombosis". Inclusive criteria: ①Occurrence factor of deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement. ②Diagnostic criteria and diagnostic methods of deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement. ③Preventive strategy for deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement. Inclusive criteria: repetitive research or obsolete documents. Totally 25 literatures were included in this paper.RESULTS: The agreement has been basically achieved for pathogenesis and risk factor of deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement. The pathogenesis included blood hypercoagulable state, slow blood flow (or stasis), and vessel wall damage. Meanwhile, elderly, cerebrovascular disease, varicose vein or intravenous surgery, were the risk factors of deep venous thrombosis. Mechanical therapy or medication could be selected for preventing patients against deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement with different features. It was an acceptable method for most patients using mechanical therapy, which could not induce drug adverse reaction, but the clinical efficacy remained uncertain for high-risk patient population, thus, medication should be combined. Low molecular heparin was considered first-choice drugs for preventing deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement, which was characterized by common uses and reliable effects. CONCLUSION: Studies on influencing factor and preventive treatment of deep venous thrombosis following artificial hip replacement has arisen more attention in medical circles. The understanding of pathogenesis, correlation factors and preventive measures plays an important role in decreasing incidence deep venous thrombosis.

Objective To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of intraductal papillomatosis. Methods Fifteen cases of intraductal papillomatosis were analyzed retrospectively. Results Of the 15 cases,preoperative diagnosis of intraductal papillomatosis was made in 8 cases who had received fiberoptic ductoscopy,while the rest of 7 cases who had not undergone ductoscopy were wrongly diagnosed.Postoperative pathological findings revealed 2 cases of partial malignant change and 1 case of contralateral infiltrating lobular carcinoma.Reoperation was required in 3 cases because of relapse,the relapse rate being 20%. Conclusions Intraductal papillomatosis is absolutely different from intraductal papilloma.It presents the potentiality of malignancy,and is subject to relapse after local resection.Fiberoptic ductoscopy may improve the diagnosis rate for this disease.
