Objective In order to research the operative method for preservation of healthy lung in the middle lobe carcinoma.Methods From June,1994 to August,1999,16 cases lobectomy of middle lobe cancer were performed.12 of 16 cases were received middle lobectomy with bronchial wedge-shaped resection,6 of which were followed by partial pulmonary artery resection,2 of which,with pulmonary artery sleeve resection,3 of 16 were cured by the middle lobe sleeve lobectomy,one of which was done with combined partial pulmonary artery resection.One of 16 received both middle and lower lobectomy,simultaneously,completed upper pulmonary vein and lower pulmonary vein reconstruction.Results 16 cases operation were all successful.The survival rate in 1 and 3 years were 88% and 50%,respectively.Conclusion Bronchovascular resection and reconstruction applied to treat the middle lobe cancer not only could maximal remove the focal lesion,but also reserve the healthy lung fully,and expanded the surgical indication.

BACKGROUND:Rheumatoid arthritis is a common chronic systemic autoimmune disease which is characterized by synovial lesions and bone erosion. The clinical treatment is stil a difficulty.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of exogenous hydrogen sulfide on the articular lesions in rheumatoid arthritis rats.
METHODS:Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups:control group, model group, high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide intervention group, low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide intervention group. At 2 and 4 weeks after intervention, the arthritis index, levels of serum inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrotic factor-αand interleukin-1β), pathological change of synovial tissue, average absorbance of knee joint specimens using col agen-II immunohistochemical staining were measured.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The arthritis index, levels of serum inflammatory cytokines and inflammatory infiltration of synovial staining in the model group and two intervention groups were higher than that in control group, the high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide intervention group was significantly higher than the model group (P<0.05) while the low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide intervention group was lower than the model group (P<0.05). The average absorbance of knee cartilage specimens using col agen-II immunohistochemical staining was lower in the model group and two hydrogen sulfide intervention groups compared with the control group, the high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide intervention group was significantly lower than the model group (P<0.05) while low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide intervention group was higher than the model group (P<0.05). Hydrogen sulfide has a regulatory effect on rheumatoid arthritis, high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide aggravate arthritis and cartilage degradation, low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide reduce arthritis and protect cartilage.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for determination of trace platinum in zolpidem tartrate. METHODS:Graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry(GFAAS)was adopted for direct determination after dissolving sample in 1% Hydrochloric acid solution. Horizontal platform graphite tube was performed with detection wavelength of 244.79 nm,slit width of 0.2 nm and current intensity of hollow cathode lamp of 6 mA. The mode of background correction was zeeman effect,the peak height was used as measurement pattern,and the injection volume was 20 μl. RESULTS:The linear range of platinum was 0-100 ng/ml(r=0.999 0);RSDs of precision and reproducibility tests were no more than 2.0%;recovery was 97.78%-103.07%(RSD=1.6%,n=9);the detection limit was 1.48 ng/ml. CONCLUSIONS:This method is simple and rapid with good precision and accuracy,and can be applied for the determination of trace platinum in zolpidem tartrate.

Mastitis is one of the most widespread infectious diseases that adversely affects the profitability of the dairy industry worldwide. Accurate diagnosis and identification of pathogens early to cull infected animals and minimize the spread of infection in herds is critical for improving treatment effects and dairy farm welfare. The major pathogens causing mastitis and pathogenesis are assessed first. The most recent and advanced strategies for detecting mastitis, including genomics and proteomics approaches, are then evaluated .Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of each technique, potential research directions, and future perspectives are reported. This review provides a theoretical basis to help veterinarians select the most sensitive, specific, and cost-effective approach for detecting bovine mastitis early.
