Objective To observe the effects of recombinant human epidermal growth factor ( rhEGF)on wound healing of perianal abscess after operation. Methods A total of 112 cases of perianal abscess after operation were randomly divided into the study group( n=56 )and control group( n=56 ). Patients in the control group were disinfected routinely and treated by metronidazole or rivanol. In the stud-y group,patients were treated by rhEGF after disinfection of saline. Wound edema score was evaluated at the 3rd,7th and 10th day after the surgery. Healing time of the wound was recorded simultaneously. Re-sults Wound edema scores in the study group[(1. 20 ± 0. 70),(1. 00 ± 0. 67),and(1. 05 ± 0. 69)] were significantly lower than those of the control group[(1. 70 ± 0. 66),(1. 90 ± 0. 74),and(1. 70 ± 0. 73)]at the 3rd,7th and 10th day after operation(P﹤0. 05). Conclusion rhEGF can promote wound healing obviously.

Objective To observe the effect of saline gauze tamponade of calculus bovis sativus on the level of IL-6 and IL-8 in the tissue of patients with perianal abscess after operation,and to explore its possible mechanism of action in promoting wound healing.Methods Patients with 84 cases of anal abscess surgery,were randomly divided into treatment group(n=42)and control group(n=42).Treatment group calculus bovis sativus research pressed into powder,take 0.10~0.15g evenly scattered in the saline gauze on the wound packing,the control group was treated with physiological saline gauze wound.After treatment,3,7 and 10d were treated with local granulation tissue about 0.2cm×0.2cm×0.1cm size,the IL-6 and IL-8 cytokines in local tissues were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results There was no significant difference in the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 between the two groups 3 days after treatment(P>0.05),IL-6 and IL-8 in the treatment group(7,10d)were significantly lower than that in control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Calculus bovis sativus in the treatment group,IL-6 and IL-8 levels were significantly lower than those of the control group,indicating that calculus bovis sativus can reduce local inflammation response,promote healing of wound after perianal abscess operation.

Objective To assess and delineate the dosimetric shortcomings of conventional radiotherapy planning,as compared with the three dimensional treatment planning system, and to obtain a better technique in the treatment of lung cancers.Methods Thirteen patients with stage ⅢA ⅢB non small cell lung cancer were chosen in the present study. Using the Cadplan 6.0.8 treatment planning system , three different methods of radiotherapy planning: conventional planning, conventional and conformal planning, and conformal planning were designed for each patient. The total radiation dose was 66 ?Gy and DVHs were used to assess the dosimetric distribution in the gross tumor volume and the surrounding organs at risk. Results No significant dosimetric disparity in the target volume was found among the three designs, according to anticipated therapeatic requirements. The conformity indices were 0.13,0.24 and 0.35 for these three radiotherapy designs. The mean lung volumes which received radiation dose of≥20?Gy were 32%,26% and 25%.The mean maximum dose at the spinal cord were 42?Gy,49?Gy and 33?Gy.The mean esophageal volume which received radiation of ≥50?Gy were 32%,34% and 22%, and the mean radiation dose to the heart were 18?Gy,15?Gy and 12?Gy,respectively. Conclusions Conventional radiotherapy planning is able to meet the demands of dosimetric requirements for radiation treatment of lung cancers. The three dimensional conformal radiation therapy planning system is able to provide superior delivery of high dose to the target volume without inflicting too high a risk to the surrounding normal tissues and organs.

Objective To reasonably confirm the target of 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) for lung cancer. Methods While a patient was breathing, the motion of the primary lesion in the lung was observed by fluoroscopy. The extent of motion of the primary lesion during irradiation was evaluated by portal films. Three 3DCRT plannings for lung cancer, in which gross tumor volume (GTV) decided by a group of radiation oncologists and implemented, were taken as the standard. The GTV delineated by five radiation oncologits was compared with the standard by computing the radial line measurement variation (RLMV). Results From fluoroscopic observation in fifty-nine patients, the extent of lesion motion was the largest in cephalo-caudal direction, with 14.3 mm for lesions in the lower and 7.1 mm (median) for middle part of the lung. In lateral and antero-posterior directions, it was within 4. 0 mm. The motion error during irradiation was 4. 2 mm in lateral direction and 4.6 mm in cephalo-caudal direction. The random error, system error and total error for set-up uncertainty were 3.4 mm, 6.0 mm, and 6.9 mm. Compared to the standard, the discrepancy of GTV could be as large as 150% . The largest RLMV was observed in the area of lung hilar nodes. Conclusions The target of 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy for lung cancer should be confirmed individually and delineated by a group of radiation oncologists. A more efficient fixing device is needed owing to the large total error for set-up.

Objective To evaluate the protection of 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB),an inhibitor of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP),on severe acute pancreatitis associated adenohypophysis injury in rats.Method Forty Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:sham operation group (SO group,n=8),SAP group (n=12),3-AB pretreatment group (n =12),drug control group (n =8).The bilepancreatic duct was cannulated through the duodenum and SAP model was induced by a standardized pressure-controlled retrograde infusion of 5％ sodium taurocholate (0.1 ml/100 g) into the bile-pancreatic duct.In 3-AB group,3-AB (20 mg/kg) was administered via femoral vein 30 min prior to the operation;other procedures were identical to SAP group.In SO group,pancreas was flipped several times only.In drug control group,3-AB (20 mg/kg) was administered via femoral vein 30 min prior to the operation.Serum amylase,lipase were measured.Pancreas and pituitary tissue were taken for pathological examination under light microscope.PARP and NF-κB antibodies for adenohypophysis immunohistochemical stains.Adenohypophysis cell was observed under electronic microscope.Result Serum amylase,lipase and pancreas pathological scores were significantly higher in 3-AB group compared with SO group (P ＜ 0.05),but lower than that in SAP group (P ＜ 0.05).Adenohypophysis pathological injury was less severe in 3-AB group.Expressions of PARP and NF-κB in adenohypophysis cells were significantly higher in 3-AB group compared with SO group,but lower than that in SAP group (P ＜ 0.05).Ultrastructural change of thyrotroph cell was relieved in 3-AB group.No significant difference was observed between SO group and drug control group in PARP and NF-κB expression nor adenohypophysis pathological injury.Conclusions 3-AB exerts the protective effect against acute pancreatitis associated adenohypophysis injury by inhibition of PARP and NF-κB.

Objective To investigate the changes of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) and NF kappa B (NF-κB) in adenohypophysis in rat model of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP),and their role in the mechanism of adenohypophysis injury in SAP.Methods Forty Wistar rats were randomly (random number) divided into 5 groups:the sham operation group (SO group,n =8),SAP 1 h,3 h,6 h and 12 h groups (n =8 in each group).SAP model was induced by retrograde injection of 5％ sodium taurocholate into the biliopancreatic duct.Serum levels of amylase,lipase and ascites were measured.After sacrifice of experiment rats,pancreas and adenohypophysis tissues were taken for pathological examination under light microscope.Adenohypophysis cells were observed under electronic microscopy as well.PARP and NF-κB expressions in adenohypophysis cell was studied by using immunohistochemisty assay.Results After modelling,serum levels of amylase,lipase and ascites in SAP group increased gradually,which were higher than those in SO group (P ＜ 0.05).Adenohypophysis cell swelling and partial necrosis were observed under light microscope.As the time prolonged,their nuclei became dark and pyknotic more and more,and the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial swelling in adenohypophysis cells were observed under electronic microscopy.The expressions of PARP and NF-κB in SAP group increased gradually,which were higher than those in SO group.Conclusions Significant pathological and ultrastructural injuries were observed in adenohypophysis cells in severe acute pancreatitis.These changes might correlate with PARP and NF-κB signaling pathway.
