International Journal of Surgery 2010;37(12):832-836
Immune system is the autologous defense system for people to resist disease. Immunotherapy stimulates the immune system to resist disease, including treatment with immunocyte and vaccine. In recent years, the prognosis and survival quality of tumour patients have been greatly improved through cell immunotherapy by immunoregulation and killing directly on tumor. Immunotherapy becomes the hotspot in research.The study of DN Treg cell on immunotherapy will be of vital significance.

Objective To analyze perioperative process, oncologic state and prognosis of patients with rectal carcinoma treated by lapascopic abdominoperineal resection. Methods 9 cases of rectal carcinoma treated by lapascopic abdominoperineal resection were reviewed retrospectively from December 1993 to February 1996. Results The median age was 50y(30y~67y), median follow-up time 80 months(40m~90m) and median operative time 6h (4 5h~7 5h). 9 cases were operated on by standard radical operation, including abdominal procedures under laparoscope in 8 cases and under the help of mini-incision in 1 case.Complications occurred in 4 cases, including subcutaneous emphysema and urine detention, iliac vein injury, deep vein thrombosis and part mucous necrosis, and perineal wound infection in 1 case respectively. The median number of lymph nodes in the specimen was 13(4~25). 6 patients survived and 3 ones died with the survival rate at 5-year being 77.8%. Conclusions Lapascopic abdominoperineal resection in the treatment of rectal carcinoma is feasible, and it can meet the tumor resection requirements of open radical operation.

Objective To study the clinical application of the complete audiologic evaluation battery consisting of ABR,ASSR and behavioral audiometry in sound field for the identification of sensorineural losses in children.Methods In the study 48 children were divided as group PTA of the children assessed by pure tone audiometry and ABR and ASSR test,and group BA of the children unable to perform on behavioral evaluations.Results The analysis of the audiometric results of group PTA showed significant correlation between the ASSR thresholds and pure tone thresholds(P<0.01) at various frequencies.The correlation coefficients were 0.75,0.76,0.76,and 0.83 at different frequencies.The ASSR-PTA linear regression was utilized.The comparison of the ABR and ASSR results of group BA indicated that 23 ears responded in ASSR but without responses in ABR.Those without ASSR responses also had no ABR There were 116 tests in total four frequencies for the 29 ears.83 responses were obtained from ASSR,89 responses from behavior audiometry and 96 from the use of the both tests.Conclusion The comprehensive audiologic evaluation battery could be used to test younger children with severe heating loss children as compared to the pure tone audiometry alone.More detailed data can be obtained thus from children to assist in rehabilitation in a more effective mariner.

Objective To investigate the relationship between corneal basal nerve change and type 2 diabetic retinopathy based on confocal laser microscopy.Methods Together 118 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) were collected in our hospital from February 2016 to February 2017,including 57 patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR group) and 61 patients without DR (NDR group).For comparison,60 healthy volunteers were selected as the control group.And all the subjects were examined by corneal confocal laser microscopy to analyze the relationship between the morphological parameters of the corneal nerve and clinical variables.Results Corneal nerve fiber density,corneal nerve branch density and corneal nerve branch length in DR group were (20.03 ±4.22) · mm-2,(22.01 ± 7.05) · mm-2 and (9.50 ± 1.76) mm ·mm-2,significantly less than those of the control group and NDR group (all P < 0.05);and corneal nerve fiber curvature was (0.30 ± 0.03),significantly higher than that of the control group and NDR group (all P < 0.05);In DR patients,phase Ⅲ patients had smaller the corneal nerve fiber density,corneal nerve branch density and corneal nerve branch length,but the larger corneal nerve fiber curvature than the phase Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients (all P < 0.05);course of disease of DR group was (12.04 ± 2.48) years,which was significantly higher than that of NDR group (P < 0.05),while fasting C peptide and fasting insulin were (1.41 ± 0.58) μg · L-1 and (20.05 ± 7.91) mU · L-1,respectively,significantly lower than those of NDR group (all P < 0.05);The duration of T2D was negatively correlated with the corneal nerve branch density and corneal nerve branch length (r =-0.322,-0.317,all P <0.05);Fasting C peptide was positively correlated with the corneal nerve branch density (r =0.298,P < 0.05),and negatively correlated with the corneal nerve curvature (r =-0.311,P < 0.05).Conclusion Patients with T2D retinopathy have abnormal morphology of corneal nerve.And confocal laser scanning microscopy is conducive to the early detection of microvascular disease in T2D patients with a longer course of disease or a low level of fasting C peptide.

SUMMARY Mercury intoxication is a rare cause of severe hypertension. A case of mercury intoxication presented with severe hypertension and erythromelalgia was reported. A 10-year-and-5-month-old girl presented with recurrent rash and painful hands for 2 months, with seizure attack and episodic loss of consciousness for one hand half months. The girl was found to have red painful hands, a blood pressure 170/120 mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa), tachycardia and hypokalemia (2.83-3.25 mmol/L, reference value 3.5-5.5 mmol/L). An extensive investigation ensued. Elevated renin-angiotensin and aldosterone were demonstrated in plasma. Cranial MRI T2 weighed images showed widespread white matter signal abnormalities, which particularly involved parietal, occipital and frontal lobes. With hypertension controlled, white matter signal abnormalities weakened. Other symptoms included insomnia, nausea and paroxysmal abdominal pain. The girl was found to have a raised concentration of mercury in urine (0.171 mg/L, reference value

Pancreatic cancer is a commonly malignant gastrointestinal tumor with an significantly increasing incidence.Those patients without nonspecific symptoms at early stage had mostly lost the opportunity of surgical therapy when pancreatic cancer was detected at advanced stage,and its prognosis is poor.Therefore,it is rather important to improve the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.In recent years,proteomics is developing rapidly.Proteomics technologies have been widely used in clinical research.Using proteomics technology screening pancreatic cancer tumor markers becomes the research focus,thus we try to find a kind of or a group of pancreatic tumor markers,so as to improve the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To understand the pathogenesis of primary hypothyroidism associated with polymyositis-like syndrome.Method Four cases were presented and the clinical characteristics were analyzed.Results All of the four patients were male.Complaints of weakness primarily affecting proximal muscles and elevation of muscle enzymes were presented.Primary hypothyroidism was diagnosed after clinical examination.Complaints of weakness and the elevated muscle enzymes were all improved after the substitution of thyroxine.Conclusion Hypothyroidism could cause polymyositis-like syndrome,and thyroid function should be screened when elevation of muscle enzymes is presented.

ObjectiveTo find out the inhibitory effects of CD4 - CD8 - DNT cells on growth of which depresses the pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo.Methods The inhibitory effects of DNT cells on the growth of Panc- 1 were studied in vitro by MTT method.Eighteen BALB/c mice were divided into 3 groups randomly.Human pancreatic cancer xenografts were established in 2 groups randomly.The last group was injected the cell suspension which comprises DNT and Panc- 1 cells ( Panc- 1∶ DNT =1∶ 5 ).When the diameter of tumor was about 5 mm,the first 2 group mice were further divided into 2 groups randomly.One was control,treated with distilled water.The other was treated with celebrex (4 mg/d).The size of the tumors was calculated every 2 weeks and tumor growth curve was depicted.At the end of the treatments,the mice were sacrific and the tumors were harvested.The tumor inhibition rate was calculated.Results( 1 ) MTT study showed that DNT cells produced a dose- dependent inhibition of Panc- 1 proliferation in vitro.(2) The growth of transplanted pancreatic cancer was down-regulated by treatment of DNT cells.ConclusionDNT cells can inhibit the growth of pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo.
