Chinese Journal of General Surgery 2016;31(6):449-452
Objective To compare the value for predicting prognosis between ENETS and AJCC TNM staging system in G-NEC patients.Methods Clinical data of 28 G-NEC cases from January 2005 to September 2015 in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital were analyzed and follow-up data were staged by he ENETS and AJCC TNM staging system.The survival curves were drawn using Kaplan-Meier method.Univariate analysis was performed by Log-rank test.Results Evaluated by ENETS TNM staging system on these 28 G-NEC patients,5 cases (18%) were classified at stage Ⅱ,20 cases (71%) were at stage Ⅲ,3 cases (11%) at stage Ⅳ,and significant difference in survival time was found between the three stages (P < 0.05).By the AJCC TNM staging system,1 case (4%) was classified at stage Ⅱ,24 cases (86%) were at stage Ⅲ,and 3 cases (11%) at stage Ⅳ,and significant difference in survival time was found between three stages.Conclusions AJCC TNM staging system is more valuable for predicting prognosis of G-NEC,while the ENETS TNM staging system is more accurate in evaluating G-NEC biologic behavior.

BACKGROUND: The reaction of osteoblasts is important role in the reconstruction of osteocytes, and the mechanism of bone remodeling can be known from the cytological level through analyzing the mechanical reaction of osteoblasts under different loading.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effects of low frequency vibration on the proliferation and differentiation as well as the matrix excretion of cultured human osteoblasts.DESIGN: A comparative observation.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the laboratory of Nanfang Hospital from January to December in 2002. Human osteoblasts were isolated from the iliac cancellous bone of adults.METHODS: The osteoblasts were cultured for 48 hours, and then treated with low frequency vibration of 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 2 and 5 Hz. The proliferation of the osteoblasts was detected with flow cytometry, and the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and content of osteocalcin were assayed by spectrophotometric methods and radioimmunoassay respectively.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Effects of low frequency vibration on the ALP activity and osteocalcin excretion of osteoblasts; ② Effects of low frequency vibration on the proliferation of osteoblasts detected with flow cytometry.RESULTS: ① 0.2 and 0.5 Hz vibrations could markedly increase the ALP activity of osteoblast (P < 0.01), but that of 5 Hz obviously decreased the ALP activity (P < 0.01). 0.1 and 2 Hz vibrations had no obvious effects on the ALP activity of osteoblasts. ② 0.2 and 0.5 Hz vibration could significantly increase number of osteoblasts at S phase from 10.4% to 12.45% and 16.12%, and the proliferative index increased from 20.14% to 26.21% and 28.75%; 0.1 and 2 Hz vibration has not obvious effects in osteoblast proliferation index; 5 Hz vibration obviously decreased the proliferative index value to 13.22% (P < 0.05). 0.1 and 2 Hz vibrations had no obvious effects on the proliferative index of osteoblasts (P > 0.05). ③ 0.2 and 0.5 Hz vibrations could obviously increase the amount of osteocalcin excretion to 1.87 μg/L and 2.47 μg/L(P < 0.05), but 2 and 5 Hz vibrations decrease the amount of osteocalcin excretion (P < 0.05), and that of 0.1 Hz had no obvious effect on amount of osteocalcin excretion (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Low frequency vibrations of 0.2-0.5 Hz could accelerate the proliferation and differentiation as well as the excretions of active materials of osteoblasts, and it plays an instructive role for low frequency vibration to treat fracture.

Objective To evaluate endoscopic minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of sphenoidal and ethmoidical mucoceles. Methods A total of 25 patients diagnosed as sinus mucoceles, 10 in the sphenoid sinus and 15 in the ethmoid sinus, were subjected in this study, who underwent endoscopic marsupialization in our department from 1998 to 2000. Postoperatively, the patients were followed from 1 to 3 years. Results All 25 sphenoidal and ethmoidical mucoceles were satisfactorily approached endoscopically, and operating cavities received satisfactory marsupialization. The symptoms were improved or relieved in 23 patients. None had significant complications. Conclusion Endoscopic minimally invasive surgery is a safe and valuable way in the treatment of sphenoidical and ethmoidical mucoceles.

Objective: To observe the effect of ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) (total ginkgo flavone 50% and qinkgolide 25%) on experimental hyperlipidemic quail.Methods: 60 quail were randomly grouped six:normal group, hyperlipidemic model group and low, middle and high dose GBE groups, as well as lipanthyl group. Except for the normal group, the other five groups were firstly given high fat food for two weeks. Then among them, three groups were treated with GBE(20mg/kg?d, 40mg/kg?d, 80mg/kg?d, respectively) by ig administration, and one group was given lipanthyl(25mg/kg?d)by ig administration as the positve drug, another group was received aqua destillata by ig administration as the hyperlipidemic model. The treatments were consecutively carried out for four weeks. At the end, the vena jugularis externa blood of all the quail was taken and the serum lipid level of each quail was tested.Results: GBE in low dose group could significantly decrease the levels of TC, LDL C( P

Objective To investigate the application of ultrasound localization during craniocerebral operations. Methods Thirty-one cases with intracranial space occupying lesion were surgically treated with guidance of ultrasound, which was applied to real-time localization while revealing skull, tracing during operation and evaluation of the operation's effect before locking up the skull. Results In our group, 31 cases were checked using ultrasound localization during operation. Ultrasound could level the lesion's size and position, which was in accordance with the result of CT and MRI before operation. With the application of ultrasound localization, the lesion could be probed exactly. Conclusions Ultrasound localization during operation is simple, effective and secure, and is helpful to enhance the accuracy of the craniocerebral operations, reduce the blindly exploration, shorten the operation time, and what is more important, reduce unnecessary tissue damage of normal brain tissue, which obviously possess much clinical utilization.

AIM: To observe the curative effect of titanium wiring in treatment of the fractures of Neer Ⅱ type distal clavicle and dislocation of Tossy Ⅲ type acromioclavicular joint. METHODS: From March 2004 to December 2006, 37 cases with Neer Ⅱ type distal clavicle fractures or Tossy Ⅲ type acromioclavicular joint dislocation were treated with titanium wiring in Changzheng Hospital, Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. Titanium wiring (produced by Sofamor-Danek Company in USA) had good histocompatibility, intensity of tension and flexibility. The broken coracoclavicular ligament was repaired directly by titanium wiring in all cases. The outcomes were evaluated according to Herscovici's criteria. RESULTS: All the cases were followed up for 6 to 24 months. All the dislocated acromioclavicular joints returned to normal 2 weeks after operation. Excellent and good rate of shoulder function was 100% according to Herscovici standard. X-ray imaging showed all clavicle fractures united, acromioclavicular joint had no redislocation or titanium wiring breaking. The incisions of all cases had no obvious swelling and exudation. CONCLUSION: When Neer Ⅱ type distal clavicular fracture and Tossy Ⅲ type acromioclavicular joint dislocation are treated with titanium wiring, the acromioclavicular joint can exercise earlier and recover quickly.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum levels of IL-24, IFN-γand IL-4 in patients with condyloma acuminatum (CA) after treatment. Methods Forty-two patients with CA who experienced no recurrence within 3 months after successful treatment were enrolled in this study. Double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (DAS ELISA) was performed to determine the serum levels of IL-24,IFN-γand IL-4 in these patients before and 3 months after successful treatment as well as in 35 normal human controls. Results The untreated patients showed a lower level of serum IFN-γ (9.65 ± 3.70 vs. 15.49 ± 3.85ng/L, P < 0.01) and a higher level of serum IL-4 and IL-24 (15.91 ± 6.14 vs. 10.48 ± 5.08 ng/L, 141.84 ±44.01 vs. 103.20 ± 41.37 ng/L, both P < 0.01 ) compared with the controls. No significant difference was observed for the above parameters between the serum samples from the controls and patients 3 months after successful treatment. Conclusions Cellular immunity is impaired in patients with CA, which may be involved in the immunopathogenesis of CA.
