OBJECTIVETo compare the effectiveness and safety of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and transurethral enucleative resection of the prostate (TUERP) in the treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).
METHODSA total of 630 BPH patients with indication of surgery were randomly assigned to receive TURP (n = 305) and TUERP (n = 325), respectively. There were no significant differences preoperatively in age, prostate volume, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and Qmax between the two groups (P > 0.05). The prostate resection rate, operation time, postoperative complications, and quality of life (QOL) of the patients were recorded and statistically analyzed.
RESULTSCompared with TURP, TUERP showed a significantly higher rate of prostate resection ([47.0 +/- 13.3] vs [60.1 +/- 12.3]%, P < 0.05), shorter operation time ([57.9 +/- 15.9] vs [40.4 +/- 14.2] min, P < 0.05), and shorter bladder irrigation time ([2.7 +/- 0.6] vs [2.2 + 1.1] d, P < 0.05). Significant differences were found between the pre- and post-operative levels of serum sodium and hemoglobin in the TURP group ([141.2 +/- 3.5 ] vs [136.9 +/- 4.7] mmol/L, P < 0.01; [137.6 +/- 8.8] vs [124.8 +/- 9.6] g/L, P < 0.01), but not in the TUERP group. Three months after operation, IPSS, QOL, and Qmax were all markedly improved in both groups (P < 0.01), but with no significant differences between the two groups (P >0.05).
CONCLUSIONTUERP is better than TURP in the treatment of BPH for its advantages of higher resection rate of the prostate, shorter operation time and bladder irrigation time, less intraoperative blood loss, fewer postoperative complications, and faster recovery.

To screen anti idiotypic single chain variable fragments(anti Id scFv)against hepatitis C virus NS4A(HCV NS4A)so as to lay a foundation for developing anti Id scFv vaccine againist the hepatitis C virus. The recombinant phage antibody library was panned by hepatitis C virus NS4A monoclonal antibody which was coated in a microwell plate. After five rounds of biopanning, 82 clones specific to HCV NS4A antibody were determined with the enzyme linked immunoadsorbent assay(ELISA). The specificity of anti idiotypic scFv was identified by ELISA and competitive inhibition assay. The DNA sequence of the positive clone was determined. The result showed that HCV NS4A anti Id scFv had a specific combination character with hepatitis C virus NS4A monoclonal antibody. The DNA sequence data showed that the anti Id scFv coding gene included 789 bp. The results suggested that the anti Id scFv fragments to HCV NS4A monoclonal antibody could be successfully selected by recombinant phage antibody library screening technique, which might pave a way for the study of new preventive and therapeutic strategy of hepatitis C using anti Id scFv.

To screen HCV core mimotopes,HCV core monoclonal antibody was used as immobilized molecule,and a 12 mer phage peptide library was biopanned and positive clones were selected by enzyme linked immunoadsorbent assay(ELISA), competitive inhibition assay, and DNA sequencing. 10 positive clones were chosen for DNA sequencing. From the experiment and sequencing comparison results,one epitope was confirmed as a mimotope of HCV core protein. The study might provide a new approach for HCV therapy and vaccine development.

Purpose:To establish a human large cell lung cancer multi-drug resistance cell line H460/cDDP and explore its biological characteristics. Methods:A resistant human larget cell lung cancer cell line (H460/cDDP) was established by intermittent high dose cisplatin selection from the parental cell line H460. Drug sensitivity was detected by MTT assay. The changes of its biological characteristics were determined using light microscopy, Trypan Blue staining rejection, cell counting, chromatosome analysis; Neoplasia formation test in nude mouse was performed to investigate its in vivo characteristic. Results:H460/cDDP cell line was developed after about 6 months and the resistance index to cisplatin was 10.21. H460/cDDP cells exhibited cross-resistance to 5-Fuorouracil, adriamycn, etoposide and methotrexate. Compared with the parent cells, the morphology wac changed; doubling time prolonged (from 20.78h to 36.46h), while the chromatosome number and caryotype were similar. After being frozen, deposited and resuscitated repeatedly, its biological characteristics remained stable. It had neoplasia formation ability in vivo, but the forming time was longer than its parental cell. Conclusions:The newly established multi-drug resistant large cell lung cancer cell line H460/cDDP cell line possessed the typical multi-drug resistant phenotype. It was stable and had neoplasia formation ability in vivo,suitable for research.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between anemia and severity of coronary artery lesions.Methods: A total of 227 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease(CAD) were studied.According to their hemoglobin levels,all patients identified positive by selective coronary angiography(CAG) were divided into two groups,anemic group and non-anemic group,their clinical types and severity of coronary artery lesions were compared.Results: The proportion of anemia in unstable angina and infarction group was higher than those in stable angina group,similarly the proportion of anemia was also high in severe stenosis,occlusion and three-branch stenosis groups than that in other groups.Conclusion: Anemia is possibly one of the predictive factors suggesting CAD's clinical types and deterioration of coronary artery stenosis.

Objective: To evaluate the protective effect of epidermal growth factor (EGF) on intestinal barrier functionin rats with acute pancreatitis. Methods: Thirty-two male SD rats received injection of sodium taurocholate solution(3. 5 mg?L-1) into the pancreatic duct were randomly divided into control group (n=16) and treatment group (n=16). Animals incontrol group received total parenteral nutrition (TPN), animals in treatment group were fed on the same TPN formula ascontrol group and injections of EGF at a dose of 0. 2 mg' kg l' day--'. Rats were sacrificed on d 1 and d 5 of TPN. Concen-tration of xylose and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-dextran in superior mesenteric vein (SMV), protein and DNA contentin je junal mucosa were determined. Samples from SMV, mesenteric lymph nodes, pancreas, liver, spleen were harvested forcultures. Results: FITC-dextran concentration in treatment group was significantly lower than in control group [(3. 4?0. 7)vs (7. 5?0. 9) mg. L-1, P<0. 0l]. Protein and DNA content in je junal mucosa in treatment group were significantly higherthan in control group [(2. 65?0. 23) vs (1. 12?0. 18) mg? cm-1, (0. 25?0. 07) vs (0. 12?0. 04) mg?cm-1, P
