Results All of the 98 cases were followed up for 6 to 24 months with a mean of 13 months.The recurrence rate was 6.2%.There was no generalized side effect. Conclusions Intravesical instillation of MTZ was efficacious for the prevention of postoperative recurrence of superficial bladder cancer with safety and less side effect.So it can be widely used in such patients.

Objective To study the effects of intrathecally administered morphine and ketamine on nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and nitric oxide content in the spinal cord.Methods Thirty-two male Wistar rats weighing 220-260 g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal chloral hydrate 300 mg?kg-1 . A catheter was implanted in subarachnoid space at lumbal region. Sciatic constriction injury (SCI) was produced by loose ligation of right sciatic nerve trunk with 4-0 cutgut. On the 4th postoperative day the animals were randomly divided into four groups of 8 animals :(1) control group (C); (2) morphine group (M);(3) ketamine group (K) and morphine-ketamine group (KM) . Morphine 20 ?g / ketamine 20 ?g / morphine 10 ?g + ketamine 10 ?g were injected intrathecally every day for 7 consecutive days in group M, K and KM. In control group normal saline was injected intrathecally instead of morphine and / or ketamine. The withdrawal latenvies to radiant heat focused on plantar surface were measured as radiant heat threshold before intrathecal administration of the analgesic (baseline) and 30 min after intrathecal administration of ketamine and / or morphine every day for 7consecutive days. The percentage of maximal possible effect ( MPE % ) was calculated : MPE % = (latency after intrathecal administration-baseline latency) / (radiant heat cut-off time-baseline latency) X 100% . After 7 days of intrathecal administration the animals were decapitated and the spinal cord was immediately removed and the lumbal spinal cord was dissected on ice. NOS activity and nitric oxide ( NO) content were measured by spectrophotometry. Results MPE % was significantly higher in group M and KM than in group C and K ( P

Objective To compare 2 approaches with different culture media which induce hyphal form of Candida albicans.Methods Induction of hyphal form was conducted for 16 C.albicans strains with either RPMI 1640 medium or DMEM medium,at 37 ℃ for 24 h,respectively.The hyphal and yeast forms were counted separately and the ratio of hyphal form to total cells was calculated.Results The ratio of hyphal form to total cells was higher in RPMI 1640 medium than that in DMEM medium at the same incubation time for the majority of strains.The ratio was above 99% for all strains after 7-day incubation with 12 times of passages in RPMI 1640 medium at 37 ℃.Moreover the ratio of hyphal form was significantly higher for fluconazole-susceptible strains than that for fluconazole dose-dependent susceptible and resistant strains in incubation with DMEM medium at 37 ℃.Conclusion Incubation with RPMI 1640 medium at 37 ℃ for 7 days seems a favorable condition to induce hyphal form of C.albicans.

Objective To study the long-term outcome of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in drug refractory heart failure patients through retrospective analysis and to ivestigate the underline reasons of unsuccessful cases in the study. Methods The study comprised a total of 48 patients (mean age 70?18.5 years; 83% male) with New York Heart Association class Ⅲ (86%) or class Ⅳ (14%) heart failure and LVEF≤35%. All patients fulfilled the standard CRT indications with the QRS duration ≥130 and LVEDd≥60 mm. Only one of the 48 patients was implanted with a combination of automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and CRT device. The outcome of CRT was evaluated in terms of QRS duration, LVEF through echocardiography, 6 minute hall walk and tissue doppler echocardiography. Results Within a mean clinical follow-up of 29.0?7.5 month, the QRS duration was significantly shortened by biventricular pacing compared with right ventricular or left ventricular pacing. [(169?26) ms vs (188?40) ms and (222?34) ms vs (212?42) ms, respectively]. The NYHA functional class was improved from class Ⅲ-Ⅳ before the operation to class Ⅰ-Ⅱ at 1 week and 1 month during the follow up period. LVEF increased gradually from (28.30?3.94)% to (37.80?3.98)% after one week and increased to (42.99?7.87)% at the end of the follow-up. There was significant difference in LVEF before and 1 week after the operation (P

BACKGROUND: The choline acetyltransferase (CHAT) is the key synthetic enzyme for acetylcholine, and is the important symbol of the functional activity of the cholinergic system. There was a relationship of the cholinergic neurons damage with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD) and the mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Whether or not the fimbria/fornix transection may affect the expressive variety of ChAT in different cerebral regions of rats (cortex, hippocammpi CA1, amygdala, Meynert nucleus) is very important for the recognition of the pathogenesis of AD and MCI and the establishment of experimental animal model of AD.OBJECTIVE: To observe the expressive variety of ChAT in different cerebral regions of rats with fimbria/fornix transection and discuss exploratorily the methods of simulative experimental AD.DESIGN: A randomized and control study.SETTING: Institute of Cerebrovascular Disease, Affiliated Hospital of the Qingdao University Medical College and the Department of Neurology, No. 1People' s Hospital of Jining.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Institute of Cerebrovascular Disease, Affiliated Hospital of the Qingdao University Medical College from March to December 2003. Totally 14 adult healthy female Wistar rats aged 5 months were randomly divided into model group and control group with 7 in each group.METHODS: ① The bilateral fimbria-fornix of brain in model group were transected on the stereotaxic apparatus to set animal model. After opening the skull, at the coordinates, along the bregma posterior 2.2 mm-2.5 mm and lateral 1.0 mm according to the atlas of Paxinos and Watson, and the dorsal fornix, the anterior part of hippocampus and the fimbria were cut off with a double blade under visual inspection. Rats in the control group were not performed with fimbria/fornix transection, and the other procedures were completed as those in the model group. ② On the 28 day after the surgery, all rats were killed under anesthesia to take out the brain tissues and make coronary sections for histochemical observation in a immunohistochemical way. The expressions of the ChAT positive neurons were observed in the cortex, hippocammpi CA1, amygdala, Meynert nucleus, and the brown neurons under microscopy was the ChAT positive neurons.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Expressions of ChAT positive neurons in the cortex, hippocammpi CA1, amygdala, Meynert of the basal forebrain in the model group and the control group.RESULTS: All the rats entered the final analysis without any loss. The expression of ChAT positive neurons in the cortex, hippocammpi CA1,amygdala, Meynert of the basal forebrain in the model group were distinctly decreased than that in the control group (2.97±1.45, 32.60±7.33, t=10.51,P ＜ 0.01); (6.83±2.41, 50.57±5.85, t=1 8.30, P＜ 0.01); (14.43±6.75, 35.43±10.49,t=4.47, P ＜ 0.01); (5.77±6.62, 48.77±7.10, t=1 1.72, P ＜ 0.01), and the differences were significant.CONCLUSION: Finbria/fomix transection can decrease the expression of ChAT positive neurons in many cerebral regions of rats, and can be used in a method of setting the experimental animal model of AD.
