Objective To evaluate Color Doppler ultrasonography follow up for patients of femoropopliteal arteriosclerosis after interventional therapy.Methods We used Color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) in 57 cases' follow-up of endovascular intervention therapy of femoropopliteal arteriosclerosis lesion to monitor and analyze arterial hemodynamics after endovascular intervention therapy.Results An average follow-up of 13 months( range:3 -33 ) was achieved.31 of the 57 cases were found with mild stenosis,8 cases were moderate stenosis,6 cases were severe stenosis,12 cases were complete occlusion.In these 57 cases there were 7 in Fontaine stage Ⅰ,42 cases in Fontaine stage Ⅱ,6 cases were Fontaine stage Ⅲ,2 cases were Fontaine stage Ⅳ.Ankle brachial index (ABI) ABI≥I.0 in 2 cases,0.8≤ABI ＜ 1.0 in 10 cases,0.8≤ABI ＜ 1.0 in 31 cases,and ABI ＜0.5 in 14 cases.There was significant correlation between stenosis and Fontaine stage ( r =0.47,P ＜ 0.01 ),so was between stenosis and ABI ( r =0.66,P ＜ 0.01 ).In this series 29 cases also underwent DSA,and the results between CDU and DSA were significandy consistent ( Kappa value =0.61,P ＜ 0.01 ).The sensitivity of CDU was 92％,the specificity was 75％ and the accuracy was 89.2％.Conclusions CDU can continuously monitor hemodynamics after endovascular intervention therapy.It is a sensitive,non-invasive and effective method to evaluate the clinical efficacy of endovascular intervention.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of extracts from asparagus filicinus rhizome on prolifieration of human osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells and its molecular mechanism .Methods MTT assay was used to detect the cytotoxic activity and growth inhibition of three different extracts from asparagus filicinus rhizome against Saos-2 cells ;plate colony formation assay was per-formed to detect active fraction of asparagus filicinus rhizome on the anchorage dependent growth of Saos-2 cells ;the cell cycle alter-ation was determined by propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry analysis ;the alteration of protein expression level of COX-2 was determined by using Western blotting .Results Ethyl acetate fraction of asparagus filicinus rhizome (AF-A) exerted the potent cytotoxicity on Saos-2 cells(IC50 =26 .7 μg/mL);AF-A induced the inhibitory effect on the anchorage dependent growth of Saos-2 cells in a dose dependent manner(P<0 .05);Saos-2 cells treated by AF-A at the concentration of 30 .0 and 100 .0 μg/mL for 48 h induced the increase of percentages of S phage from (31 .8 ± 4 .8)% in the control group to (43 .7 ± 2 .5)% and(51 .9 ± 1 .9)% ,the difference showing statistical significance (P< 0 .05) .Western blotting showed that AF-A at different concentrations decreased COX-2 protein expression .Conclusion AF-A posseses the inhibitory effect on the proliferation and growth of human osteosarcoma cells in vitro ,and its mechanism might be associated with the induction of S phage arrest and the inhibition of COX-2 protein ex-pression level .

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of superselective renal artery embolization in the treatment of iatrogenic renal hemorrhage. Methods The iatrogenic renal hemorrhage in fifteen patients was first demonstrated by renal arterigraphy to diagnose the rupture site and degree of injury. And then they were treated by percutaneous catheterized superselective renal arterial embolization through guidance of guide wire. Results In all 15 patients, the occlusive ruption of bleeding arteries and disappearance of extravasation staining were found after the superselective catheterized renal arterial embolization. Clinically, the bloody urine turned clear without macroscopic hematuria during 1-3 days in all patients after the procedure. Conclusions Superseclective renal arterial embolization treatment signified a less invasion, less complications, good hemostatic efficacy, and maximal preservation of renal tissue and function for iatrogenic renal hemorrhage. The treatment is worthy to be recommended.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate (PKRP) in treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia in elderly patients aged 80 years and over. Methods Retrospective clinical analysis of 180 case of high risk of benign prostate hyperplasia treated by PKRP in patients aged 80 years and over. Results All the 180 patients underwent the operation successfully. The average time for operation was (45.5±23.3) min and the resected prostate was in an average of (60.3±23.3) g. Neither of blood transfusion during the operation nor aductor reflex and transurethral resection syndrome occurred. International prostate symptom score,residual urine and quality of life decreased from (29.5±5.3) to (10.2±2.8),from (130.5±45.5) ml to (13.5±7.1)ml and from (7.2±1.1) to (1.0±0.5) respectively. The maximum flow rate elevated from (6.2±1.8) ml/s to (24.5±3.1) ml/s. The differences in the above indicators were statistically significant between pre- and post- operation (P＜0.05). Conclusions Transurethral plasmakinetic prostatectomy is a reliable and effective surgical method, especially for the aged patients with benign prostate hyperplasia.

Objective To construct and evaluate a nomogram for predicting the risk of peri-operative complications after radical retro-pubic prostatectomy (RRP) with standard classification criteria.Methods The peri-operative complications and clinicopathological data of 240 patients (50-82 years old) who had undergone RRP for prostate cancer from June 2006 to June 2011 were retrospectively collected.Gleason score:95 cases ＜ 7; 145 patients ≥ 7;Clinical staging:cT1 is 1 case (0.4％),T2a 5 cases (2.1％),T2b 7 cases (2.9％),T2c 162 cases (67.5％),T3a 26 cases (10.8％),T3b 39 cases (16.3％).The peri-operative complications (in 30 days after surgery) were classified by Clavien-Dindo Classification system (the occurrence rates are as follows:rectum injury 1.6％,wound infection 2.0％,deep venous thrombosis 1.2％,urinary leak 5.0％,lymphocele 4.5％,myocardial infarction 5.8％,second look operation 1.6％),and a logistic regression model was used to construct the nomogram.Results BMI,N staging and Blood loss more than 200ml during surgery were independent prognostic factors of RRP morbidity in multivariate logistic regression.The nomogram predicting the risk of peri-operative complications showed relative good concordance index (0.633) and good calibration. Conclusions Based on the clinicopathological factors,a nomogram to predict the probability of peri-operative complications in patients undergone RRP was constructed.This statistical tool may be beneficial in judging operation risk and help consulting with patient before or after surgery.

Objective To compare the screening effects between Wells and revised Geneva scores on suspected acute pulmonary thromboembolism (APTE),and to explore a optimum screening method for APTE in the emergency department of China.Methods The study was carried out by using random,crossed,prospective methods to compare the screening effects between Wells and revised Geneva scores for 167 suspected APTE patients in the emergency department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University.Results The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of Wells and revised Geneva scores for screening APTE in the emergency department were (0.917 ± 0.022 ) and (0.927 ± 0.020),respectively ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The diagnostic concordance between the two score systems for predicting APTE was poor (Kappa value =0.276 ). In addition, the difference between their hierarchical discrimination for the possibility of APTE was statistically significant ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared with revised Geneva score,fewer patients were diagnosed with low clinical probability of APTE and more patients were diagnosed with intermediate or high clinical probability of APTE through Wells score.The patients with low chnical probability of APTE were excluded from pulmonary embolism in Wells or revised Geneva score.At intermediate clinical probability,the accuracy rate of Wells score for predicting APTE (9.64％) was lower than that (32.84％ ) of revised Geneva ( P ＜ 0.05 ).At high clinical probability,there was no significant difference between their accuracy rate [ (67.24％ vs.86.21％),P＞0.05]. Conclusions Revised Geneva score is more suitable than Wells score in screening suspected APTE patients in the emergency department in our country.

Objective To investigate the effects of hydrogen on post - cardiac arrest brain injury in rabbits.Method Sixty New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into two groups,namely experiment group ( group A,n =30 ) and control group ( group B,n =30 ).Inhalation of 2％ hydrogen gas was conferred to rabbits immediately at the end of cardiac arrest modeling for 72 hours in the group A. Air instead was given to rabbits in the group B.Blood samples were collected before cardiac arrest (CA),and 4,12,24 and 72 hours after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in all rabbits for determining the levels of hydrogen,tumor necrosis factor - α ( TNF - α),neuron - specific enolase (NSE) and protein S100β.At the same time,rectal temperature,mean arterial pressure,heart rate and respiration rate were recorded,and the neurologic deficit scoring (NDS) was carried out.The rate of systemic inflammatory response syndrome ( SIRS ) and the rate of survival of rabbits were analyzed. Results There was no significant difference in level of TNF - α activation between group A and group B within12 h of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).In group A,TNF - α level and the rate of SIRS peaked at 24 hours after CPR,which were higher than those in group B,and then decreased gradually,and the rate of survival was higher than that in group B in 72 hours after ROSC,the NSE was lower than that in group B at 24 hours after ROSC.In group B,S100β level began to increase significantly 4 hours after CPR,which was higher than that in group A,the level of NDS in group B was higher than that in group A 72 hours after ROSC.Conclusions Inhalation of hydrogen gas lessened inflammation and alleviated the brain injury after CPR.

To establish an HPLC method to determine osimertinib mesylate,Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 column (4.6 mm × 250 mm,5 μm) was used with a mobile phase consisting of methanol-buffer solution (20 mmoL/L NaH2PO4,pH 3.0 adjusted with 85％ H3PO4) (50 ∶ 50) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min.The detection wavelength was 210 nm,and the column temperature was kept at 35 ℃.The calibration curve was liner over the range from 50％ to 150％ of determination concentration (0.201 1-0.603 2 mg/mL,r =0.999 9).The limit of quantitation (LOQ) and limit of detection (LOD) were 0.32 μg/mL and 0.08 μg/mL,respectively.The contents of osimertinib mesylate in samples were 100.1％,99.5％ and 99.7％.Good chromatographic separation of osimertinib mesylate and its related substances,including synthetic impurities and degradation products,were obtained.The established HPLC method is specific,accurate,simple and durable,and could be used for the determination of osimertinib mesylate.

Objective To summarize clinical experience of one-station therapy for infected seriouslyischemic diabetic foot.Methods The clinical data of 15 patients (15 diseased limbs in total) with infected seriously-ischemic diabetic foot,who were admitted to authors' hospital during the period from June 2015 to April 2016 to receive treatment,were retrospectively analyzed.For all patients,one-station sequential therapy was carried out,which included endovascular revascularization (EVR) to open occluded vessel,surgical debridement and closed negative pressure wound drainage and antiseptic moisturizing wound dressing.The healing rate of infected wound and the limb salvage rate were evaluated.Results The 15 patients included 10 males and 5 females,with a median age of 77 years old.Lower extremity angiography showed that multiple segmental lesions of lower limb were detected in 13 patients and simple leg lesions in 2 patients.According to TASC Ⅱ update classification,leg artery disease of grade D was observed in 13 patients and artery disease of grade C in 2 patients.After EVR therapy,at least one branch of leg arteries was reopened in 14 limbs.Intact arterial arch of pedal-plantar loop (PPL) was seen in 6 patients,semi-arterial arch in 7 patients,and absent of arterial arch in 2 patients.After surgical debridement,the wound was washed by using negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) device as well as serf-made washing equipment.The time to control wound infection was (7.85±2.84) days.After discharge,the patients were followed up every 3-4 days,at the same time wound dressing exchange with antibacterial moisturizing sulfadiazine silver lipid hydrogel was conducted.Wound healing was achieved in 12 patients,and the mean healing time was (3.70±0.87) months.The wound failed to heal in 3 patients,among them below knee amputation had to be performed in 2 patients (13.3％,both patients showed absent of arterial arch of PPL),and the remaining one patient died of cardiovascular event.Statistically significant difference in PPL pathological changes existed between wound healing group and wound un-healing group (P=0.006 7).Conclusion The treatment of infected seriouslyischemic diabetic foot is rather complicated.Being one-station therapy,the sequential managements,which include EVR,NPWT device together with washing equipment and use of antibacterial moisturizing wound dressing,can effectively increase the blood supply to the affected limb,shorten the time to control infection and lower amputation rate.Therefore,one-station therapy should be regarded as the preferred method for infected seriously-ischemic diabetic foot.
