Objective To investigate the changes of renal medulla aquaporin 2 expression and morphological changes of epithelia of collecting tube after bile duct recanalizaiton operation.Methods Thirty rats were divided into two groups randomly.Common bile duct ligation was performed on 20 experimental rats with silicon tubes 2 mm in extre-diameter,and sham operation on the other 10 rats.Seven days later,bile duct recanalizaiton was performed on obstructive jaundice group and sham operation on contrast group.Experimental rats were divided into two subgroups randomly.Half of them were killed immediately and the others would be killed 24 hours later.Serum of each rat was collected to detect hepatic function and renal function.Renal medulla was fixed for microscopic examination and was kept in the-80 ℃ refrigerator for aquaporin 2 expression measurement by Western blot technique.ResultsAll of the animals accomplished the experiment smoothly.Golden ascites were found in the rats of obstructive jaundice group.Twenty-four hours after recanalization,serum bilirubin levels decreased 〔(45.95?8.39)?mol/L〕,P

Objective:To investigate the change of expression of AQP 2 in renal of obstructive jaundice rats , and the relationship between AQP 2 and the changing of Cr and BUN.Methods: Legated the common bile duct of rats to form the obstructive jaundice group.Scarified the rats on the 3th,5th,7th,10th,14th day,took blood samples and the kidney of the rats.Test direct bilirubin BUN and Cr in serum,the renal histopathological changes were observed by optical microscopy .The expression of AQP2 in renal of rats was tested by using radio immunological method.Results: Light microscopic examination of kidney showed that swelling epithelium arranged irregularly in 3rd day ,bleb in the 5th day.The expression of AQP2 in renal of rats with obstructive jaundice were greatly less than sham operation.Mesenchyma inflammatory cells infiltrate in 7th day.Local epithelial necrosis and lots of inflammatory cells infiltrate in the mesenchyma in 10th day and 14th day.The expression of AQP2 in renal collective tubule was decreased on the 5th day compared with sham operation ,and the decrease was more as time gone by.The renal function injury can be confirmed though the renal collective tubule change.Cr and BUN in serum began to increase on the 10th day and 14th day.Conclusion: Decrease of AQP2 is earlier than the increase of Cr and BUN ,and it can be the early sign of renal function injury.

Objective:To understand the depressive and anxiety condition of Han and Korean climacteric residents in community.Methods:1262 climacteric residents including 639 Korean and 623 Han residents selected from eight neighborhood communities were investigated with a Health-Investigating Scale(self-made),the Center for Epidemiological Survey Depression Scale(CES-D) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS).Results:According to CES-D,there were totally 127(10.12%) met the criteria of depression,in which 69(54.3%) were Korean and 58 were Han(45.7%).By SAS,391(32.24%) residents in which 240(61.4%) Korean and 151(38.6%) Han had anxiety symptoms.Stepwise multi-factorial regression analysis revealed the major factors related to depression were:nationality,income,drink,personality and employed,those related to anxiety were nationality,personality,drink,income and health.Conclusions:There are more depression and anxiety in Korean climacteric people than in Han.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of laminectomy combined with vertebroplasty in spinal metastases from rapid-growth tumors. Methods:Clinical data of 23 patients with spinal metastases of lung cancer, who were admitted to the Cancer Hospital from July 2008 to May 2012, were retrospectively analyzed. Thirteen male and ten female patients, with an age range from 40 years to 65 years and a mean age of 51.5, were examined. All patients received posterior laminectomy to relieve spinal cord compression. Afterward, vertebroplasty combined with radiofrequency ablation was conducted, followed by the internal fixation of vertebrae (instrumental fixation). Operation time, blood loss, and bone cement leakage rate were analyzed. One month before and after the operation, pain measurement was conducted using visual analog scale (VAS) and neurologic deficit (spinal cord injury) by Frankel Grade. Functional impairment was classified by Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score. Quality of life was assessed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30). Results:The mean operation time was 163±87.36 min. Blood boss was 430±130.35 mL. Bone cement leakage rate was 21.7%. One month before and after surgery, the VAS showed statistical significance (t=25.6, P<0.01). After surgery, 78.3%of all patients exhibited functionally satisfactory Frankel Grade D or E, compared with 43.5%of patients before the operation. KPS score (80 to 100) percentage was 69.6%after surgery compared with 34.8%before surgery. One month after the operation, remission of various degrees was seen in 10 of 18 patients who had sphincteric dysfunction before surgery (55.6%). The EORTC QLQ-C30 score was 85.39±8.99 before and 52.78±15.17 after operation. The quality of life improved significantly (t=11.6, P<0.01). Conclusion:Posterior laminectomy and vertebroplasty combined with radiofrequency ablation for spinal metastases from lung cancer is safe and effective. The treatment can improve pain, function, and life quality of patients with lung cancer spinal metastases.

ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and efficacy of combined treatment with subtotal corpectomy and radiofrequency ablation(RFA) for spinal metastases. MethodsFrom April 2009 to March 2010, 29 patients with spinal metastases who received subtotal corpectomy were analyzed. Sixteen patients (7 men and 9 women) with an average of 57.8 years having received subtotal corpectomy alone were selected for comparison (the subtotal corpectomy group). Thirteen patients (7 men and 6 women) with an average of 58.3 years having received subtotal corpectomy combined with RFA were chosen as subjects of this study (the RFA combination group). There were no significant differences between the two groups with respect to the patient's age, gender, and Tomita type. Pain levels pre-and post-procedure were assessed by the visual analogue scale(VAS), and neurologic deficit were evaluated by the Frankel scale. ResultsThe VAS in RFA combination group were 8.88±0.36, 3.76±0.33, 3.35±0.38 in preoperation, 1 month, and 6 months postoperatively, respectively. The VAS in subtotal corpectomy group were 8.96±0.39, 3.81 ±0.48, 3.41 ±0.42 in preoperation, 1 month, and 6 months postoperatively, respectively. The VAS in both groups showed statistical significance at each time point, there was no statistically difference between the two groups. The operate time in RFA combination group and subtotal corpectomy group were(216.54±113.77) min and(302.50±80.44)min, respectively. The blood loss of the two groups were (1084.62±539.82)ml and (1625.00±724.34)ml, respectively. The recurrent rate of the two groups were 30.8％ and 75.0％, respectively. The RFA combination group were lower in operate time, blood loss and recurrent rates than subtotal corpectomy group. Conclusion Compared with the subtotal corpectomy, the RFA combination can reduce the blood loss, operation time, and the recurrent rates.

Objective To discuss the related factors of early pathological fracture after curettage of benign bone tumors in femoral shaft.Methods The clinical data of 47 patients with benign bone tumors in femoral shaft,treated by curettage with bone graft via the vastus lateralis approach from March 2004 to March 2011,were retrospectively analyzed.Thirteen patients of them presented with early pathological fracture after the curettage.In fracture group,there were 13 cases,11 males and 2 females,and the time from finishing curettage to fracture occurring ranged from 21 to 36 days.In non-fracture group,there were 34 cases,23 males and 11 females.The following data of fracture group and non-fracture group were compared and analyzed,such as specific value of absolute width of tumor and transverse diameter of bone shaft,specific value of defect width of bone window and sagittal diameter of bone shaft,defect length-width ratio of bone window,defect morphology of bone window,classification of bone tumor,violence of causing injury and compliance to medical advice.Results The average defect length-width ratio of bone window in fracture group was 3.72±3.58,in non-fracture group was 2.67±6.35.For classification of tumor,in fracture group 1 case was in incubation period,6 in active period,6 in invasion period; in non fracture group 21 cases were in incubation period,10 in active period,and 3 in invasion period.Four cases in fracture group had poor compliance to medical advice,and 9 in non-fracture group had good compliance.Between two groups,there were no statistical differences in specific value of absolute width of tumor and transverse diameter of bone shaft,specific value of defect width of bone window and sagittal diameter of bone shaft,and defect morphology of bone window.Conclusion When defect length-width ratio of bone window is larger than 4,the classification of tumor causes expanded incisal edge,and the cortical bone was damaged extensively,there are more possibilities for pathological fracture.

OBJECTIVE To analyze for mutations of the PDS gene in patients with sensorineural hearing loss associated with enlarged vestibular aqueduct and analyze the molecular pathogenesis of enlarged vestibular aqueducts. METHODS Eighteen sporadic cases of large vestibular aqueduct syndrome and twelve control individuals with normal hearing were included in this study. Exons 6 and 9 of the PDS gene in all subjects were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and analyzed by direct DNA sequencing. RESULTS Analysis revealed 2 single base changes in exon 6 of one patient with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome. One was a G→C transversion at nucleotide position 611, and the other was a T→G transversion at nucleotide position 612, resulting in a predicted Gly→Ala substitution at position 204. No mutation in exons 6 and 9 of the PDS gene was found in the PDS gene of the control individuals. CONCLUSION Mutations of the PDS gene are responsible for the large vestibular aqueduct syndrome. Analysis of the PDS leftover sequence in patients with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome is the next step in elucidating the complicated causes of this disease.

OBJECTIVE Congenital aural atresia repair is difficult owing to unpredictable anatomy. Benefits may be gained from image-guided surgery(IGS) . its exact role and surgery indication were def ined. METHODS From 2001 to 2004,36 ears with bony type C(Schuknecht classification) congenital atresia were performed. In the IGS group(n=18) ,repair surgery was performed with IGS,while in the control group(Non-IGS,n=18) ,similar intervention was applied without IGS. IGS group:aged from 12-29 years,follow-up from 6 months to 1 year. Non-IGS group:aged from 10-27 years,follow-up from 6 months to 3 years. Intra-and post-operative clinical and audiometric findings were compared. RESULTS All of the patients had congenital bony aural atresia,ossicles malformation,tympanic cavity hypoplasia and facial nerve malformation. IGS revealed a malformed horizontal semicircular canal hidden in the bony atresia plate during the operation while computed tomography(CT) did not show preoperatively. IGS computed tomography images correlated well with intra-operative findings,gave the surgeon more securityand reduced operative time(2 hours and 24 minutes) by 25 minutes. The prepare time increased 20 minutes(15-30 minutes) ,but total time decreased 5 minutes in IGS group. The registration accuracy was 0.6-1.3 mm,average 0.84 mm,which was suitable for the otologic surgery. There were 1 case in IGS group and 3 cases in Non-IGS group happened local aural restenosis after operation. But there were no facial nerve paralysis and hearing injury happened in both groups,and all of the patients got the satisfactory hearing after the hearing reconstruction(the air-bone gap with an average of IGS is 31.8dB,Non-IGS is 30.5dB) . CONCLUSION In our estimation,IGS is valuable for type C congenital aural atresia repair. It serves as an educational tool and a guide both for the experienced and inexperienced surgeons in critical situations where anatomical landmarks are distorted and approach is limited. There is no statistically significant between two groups on hearing improvement after operation.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for early stage lung cancer patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 80 patients with radical resection of lung cancer in Gansu Provincial Hospital between January 2016 and December 2017. The patients were divided into two groups: 43 patients in a VATS group and 37 in a RATS group. There were 51 males and 29 females. Data were processed with STATA v14.0 statistical software. Results There were significant differences in the operative time, duration of hospital stay and operative costs between the two groups. In the RATS group, operative duration was longer (172.21 minutes versus 162.20 minutes, P=0.018), cost was higher (74 076.69 yuan versus 54 814.73 yuan, P<0.001), and required significantly shorter hospital stay (8.27 daysversus 10.76 days, P=0.001) compared with those of the VATS group. There was no statistical difference between the two groups in terms of conversion (3 versus 0, P=0.144), blood loss during operation (61.29 ml versus 90.63 ml, P=0.213), dissected lymph node number (17.38 versus 12.63, P=0.095), drainage volume (1 406.76 ml versus 1 514.60 ml, P=0.617) and the drainage time (7.92 days versus 7.20 days, P=0.440). Conclusion In the early lung cancer patients who underwent thoracic surgery, the postoperative hospitalization time of the RATS group is shorter than that of the VATS group, and the operation time is longer than that of the VATS group. The other short-term surgical indexes are similar to those of thoracoscopic surgery. However, the robot has great advantages in the treatment of patients with difficult lymph node dissection, serious pleural adhesion and complicated anatomical relationship.

Objective    To collect the data of esophageal foreign body patients, and to evaluate the clinical effects of two different surgical methods in our hospital. Methods    The clinical data of 294 patients who were treated in Gansu Provincal Hospital from January 2012 to June 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical data were collected and analyzed by SPSS 22.0. In order to to evaluate the efficacy of flexible esophagoscope (FE) and rigid esophagoscope (RE) in the treatment of esophageal foreign bodies.The patients were divided into two groups: a RE group including 118 patients with 62 males and 56 females at age of  6 (3-37) years and a FE group including 176 patients with 84 males and 92 females at age of 6 (3-59) years. Results    There was no significant difference in age, age stratification, gender and foreign body type between the two groups. There was a statistical difference in the initial clinical symptoms (P=0.041) or in esophageal foreign bodies position (P=0.037) between the two groups. The success rate of foreign body removal was similar between the two groups (P=0.632). The success rate was 88.9% (105/118) in the RE group, 87.5% (154/176) in the FE group. The operation time was significantly longer in the RE group than that in the FE group (10.8 ±17.4 min vs. 17.5±21.6 min, P<0.001). The postoperative hospitalization time in the RE groups was longer than that in the FE group (21.5 ±24.2 hours vs. 12.5 ±21.3 hours, P<0.05). There was a statistical difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups (P=0.034). In the RE group, the main complication was mucosal edema (15.3%). And the rate of bleeding was higher (15.9%) in the FE group. There were 30 patients (25.5%) in the RE group with minor postoperative complications versus the FE group with 40 patients (22.7%); and 1 patient (0.8%) in the RE group with severe complications versus the FE group with 5 paients (2.8%). Conclusion    Based on the analysis of this study, it is found that RE has higher safety. But the indications are strict, the professional requirements of the operator and the selection of patients are stronger. The FE is convenient to use, the operation crowd is wide, and the suitable crowd is wide. Therefore, for specific patients, after improving the relevant examination and preoperative evaluation of patients, clinicians need to choose appropriate surgical methods to ensure the success of the operation, and reduce the postoperative complications as far as possible.
