Objective To investigate the influence of laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer on (postoperative) micrometastasis of tumor cells.Methods Using cytokeratin,CK-20 mRNA as target gene,the RT-PCR method was used to examine the pre-and post-operative changes in the number of tumor cells in the peripheral blood of 48 cases of colorectal cancer.Results After operation,the number of tumor cells in(peripheral) blood was significantly higher in the laparoscopic surgery group as compared to that of traditional(laparotomy) operation group(P0.05),but was significantly related to positive rate of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)(P

Objective To investigate the effects of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) on interleukin-10 (IL-10) and mononuclear macrophages in a mouse model of gallbladder cancer.Methods Mouse models of gallbladder cancer were constructed by inoculating the human gallbladder cancer cell line GBC-SD subcutaneously in 20 BALB/C mice,and then all the mice were randomly divided into the IFN-γ group and the control group (10 mice in each group).Murine recombinant IFN-γ (0.1 mL,1 × 105 kU/L,diluted with normal saline) was injected into the tumors in the IFN-γgroup,and normal saline was injected into the tumors in the control group.The expression of IL-10 was detected by ELISA,and the numbers of CD14 + cells (mononuclear macrophages),CD64 + cells (M1 macrophages) and CD206+ cells (M2 macrophages) were counted by the immunohistochemistry.All data were analyzed using the Student's t test.Results The mouse models of gallbladder cancer were successfully constructed 1 week later.Nine mice survived in the IFN-γ group,and 7 mice survived in the control group.The tumor weight was (518 ± 138)mg in the IFN-γ group and (669 ± 128)mg in the control group,with a significant difference between the 2 groups (t =2.240,P ＞ 0.05).The volume of the tumor was (456 ± 172)mm3 in the IFN-γ group and (505 ± 146)mm3 in the control group,with no significant difference between the 2 groups (t =1.503,P ＞ 0.05).The concentration of IL-10 was (58 ± 16) μg/g in the IFN-γgroup,which was significantly lower than (102 ± 45) μg/g in the control group (t =2.796,P ＜ 0.05).The number of mononuclear macrophages was 81 ± 16 in the IFN-γ group,which was significantly greater than 50 ± 21 in the control group; the number of M1 macrophages was 66 ± 12 in the IFN-γ group,which was significantly greater than 9 ± 4 in the control group ; the number of M2 macrophages was 15 ± 4 in the IFN-γgroup,which was significantly lower than 40 ± 14 in the control group (t =3.214,13.127,6.914,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions IFN-γ could decrease the concentration of IL-10 in the tumor microenvironment,and it could induce the mononuclear macrophage to infiltrate into the stroma of the gallbladder cancer cells,and most of the monocytes and macrophages were differentiate to M1 macrophages.Gallbladder neoplasms; Interleukin-10; Interferon-γ; Mononuclear macrophages

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of axillary incision and thoracoscopic surgery for spontaneous pneumothorax.Methods 106 cases of spontaneous pneumothorax in our hospital were given axillary incision surgery(axillary incision group) and thoracoscopic surgery(thoracoscopy group).The intraoperative blood loss,operative time,chest tube drainage time,postoperative hospital stay and surgery costs were compared between the two groups,and the occurrence of complications were observed.Results The armpit small incision group,intraoperative blood loss was (44.5 ± 5.2) ml,the thoracoscopic amount of blood loss was (38.3 ± 6.5) ml (t =6.378,P ＜ 0.01) ;armpit operation time of the small incision group was (68.0 ± 5.3) min,thoracoscopic operative time was (60.8 ±6.0)min; armpit chest tube drainage time of small incision group was (2.8 ± 0.8)d,thoracoscopic group of chest tube drainage time was (2.0 ± 0.5) d; axillary small incision group,length of stay was (4.8 ± 0.7) d,the thoracoscopic group hospitalization time was (4.0 ± 0.6) d,(t =3.552,4.215,3.076,all P ＜ 0.05) ; axillary incision surgery costs was (1 550 ± 348) Yuan,the thoracoscopic group cost of surgery was (4 290 ± 573) Yuan (t =-24.823,P ＜ 0.05).Two groups of patients with no surgical complications,chest X-ray review of lung reexpansion good thoracoscopic group one cases of recurrence of pneumothorax,axillary incision group without recurrence (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Axillary small incision and thoracoscopic surgery for spontaneous pneumothorax have the similar efficacy,thoracoscopic surgery is less trauma,faster recovery,shorter hospital stay,but the high cost of surgery,if patients physical condition is acceptable,which can be used axillary incision surgery.

Objective To study the role of esophagogastric junction contractile index (EGJ-CI) in evaluating the function of anti-reflux barrier,and in differentiating patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) from those with functional heartburn (FH).Methods A total of 115 patients presenting heartburn were enrolled in the study from January 2012 to June 2015.All subjects had completed Gerd-Q questionnaire and undergone gastroscopy,24-hour pH-impedance monitoring and esophageal high-resolution manometry.GERD patients were divided into as reflux esophagitis,acid-nonerosive reflux disease (NERD) and weakly acid-NERD groups.Patients with normal esophageal mucosa,normal acid exposure and negative proton pump inhibitor test were enrolled in FH group.EGJ-CI (mmHg · cm) as well as EGJ rest pressure and 4s integrated relaxation pressure (IRP 4s) were measured.Results Among the 115 patients,18 were reflux esophagitis [(49.0 ± 18.9) years,M ∶ F =10 ∶ 8],25 were acid-NERD [(48.7 ± 14.4) years,M∶F=13∶ 12],37 were weakly acid-NERD [(52.0 ±14.8) years,M∶F=15∶22] and 35 were FH [(53.6 ± 14.8),M∶ F =8∶27].No differences of Gerd-Q scores were noticed between the four groups.(1) Negative correlations were demonstrated between EGJ-CI and esophageal acid exposure time (r =-0.283,P =0.002),EGJ-CI and acid reflux events (r =-0.233,P =0.012),EGJ-CI and weakly acid reflux events (r =-0.213,P =0.022),EGJ-CI and non-acid reflux events (r =-0.200,P =0.032).(2)The value of EGJ-CI was significantly higher in FH patients than in the three subgroups of GERD(all P ＜ 0.01).EGJ rest pressure of FH group was higher than that of acid-NERD (P ＜ 0.01).IRP 4s in acid-NERD group was lower than that of FH and weakly acid-NERD (P ＜ 0.05).(3) The area under curve (AUC) of EGJ-CI was higher than that of EGJ-CIT,EGJ rest pressure or IRP 4s (0.686 vs 0.678,0.641 and 0.578).The cut-off value of EGJ-CI to differentiate GERD from FH was 9.74 mmHg · cm with sensitivity 82.86％ and specificity 51.52％.Conclusions The EGJ-CI values are negatively correlated with esophageal acid exposure time,weakly acid reflux events and non-acid reflux events.Thus it might be used as a metric to reflect the anti-reflux function of EGJ.According to the cut-off value of EGJ-CI 9.74 mmHg · cm,patients with GERD can be sensitively differentiated from patients with FH.

Objective To investigate the discrepancy of anorectal function in patients of Parkinson's disease (PD) with constipation and functional constipation (FC).Methods Fifteen consecutive male PD patients with constipation and 45 male FC patients were recruited for the study.All subjects underwent colonoscopy or barium enema in order to exclude organic colon diseases.Every patient underwent anorectal manometry and was categorized into subgroups of either dyssynergic defecation (F3a) or inadequate defecatory propulsion (F3b).Results The ages of PD with constipation and FC patients were (70 ± 11) and (68 ± 11) years old respectively.The rectal resting pressure in PD with constipation was higher than that in FC group without statistical significance [9.0 (4.0,15.0) mm Hg vs 6.0 (3.0,9.5) mm Hg,P=0.082,1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa].The anal resting pressure in PD group was not different from FC group [(51.2±17.2) mm Hg vs (59.7 ± 20.4) mm Hg,P =0.152].During anal squeezing,the maximal contraction pressure and area under the squeeze curve in PD with constipation group were both significantly lower than FC patients [maximal contraction pressure:(136.9 ± 43.8) mm Hg vs (183.0 ± 62.1) mm Hg,P=0.010; area under the squeeze curve:(823.5 ±635.7) mm Hg · s vs (1392.4± 939.9) mm Hg · s,P =0.033].During forced defecation,both of the defecation rectal pressure and defecation anal pressure in PD with constipation group were significantly lower than that of FC patients [22.0(15.0,30.0) vs42.0(31.0,55.0)mm Hg,P=0.000; and (46.3 ±23.3) vs (77.9 ±35.1) mm Hg,P =0.002].The proportions of F3a subtype were 10/15 and 46.7％ (21/45) in PD with constipation and FC patients respectively.There was no significant difference in the constituent ratio (P =0.120).Initial rectal sensory volumes were (91.3 ± 56.9) ml and (67.2 ± 38.9) ml in PD with constipation and FC patients respectively.Even both volumes were higher than the normal controls,there was no significant difference between the two groups (P =0.074).Conclusions Both PD with constipation and FC patients have abnormal anorectal motility and sensation comparing to the FC group,the parameters of anal contraction and defecation are significantly lower,F3b is dominant,and rectal sensory threshold is higher in PD with constipation patients.These parameters could possibly characterize the anorectal manometry for PD with constipation patients,which is helpful to understand the pathogenesis of PD and differentiate from other diseases.

Background Aniridia is a rare congenital hereditary eye disease.Studies determined that PAX6 gene mutation is closely associated with congenital aniridia,but the mutation locus are varied.Objective This study was to identify virulence mutation locus of PAX6 gene of a Chinese family pedigree with autosomal dominant aniridia.Methods A Chinese family affected with autosomal dominant aniridia was collected and examined in Affiliated First Hospital of Zhengzhou University in August 2014.Periphery blood of 10 ml was collected from all the families and 100 unrelated health controls.The genomic DNA was extracted by standardized phenol-chloroform method,and all exons and splicing junctions of PAX6 were amplified by PCR.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was performed to examine the relative expression of PAX6 mRNA in patients and normal phenotype families and heahh controls.This study protocol was approved by Ethic Committee of Affiliated First Hospital of Zhengzhou University and complied with Helsinki Declaration.Written informed consent was obtained from subjects or custodian before any medical examination.Results This Chinese family inclued 3 generations and 9 members,with a classic autosomal dominant inheritance mode.Five patients were found,showing the absence of iris and cataract in 3 adult patients and only absence of the iris in 2 children,and other 4 members showed the normal phenotype.A novel heterozygous PAX6 deletion mutation c.796 del G (p.A266 fs) (GenBank ID:KP255960) in exon 10 was exclusively found in all affected individuals but not in any of the unaffected families or unrelated health controls.PAX6 mRNA level in lymphocytes was about 50％ lower in aniridia patients than in unaffected family members,indicating that this mutation caused nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.Conclusions A novel deletion mutation in PAX6 gene results in an abnormal PAX6 COOH-terminal extension in the Chinese aniridia family.This finding expands the mutation spectrum of PAX6 gene.

AIM:To be one of the primary cause injury to multiple sites of ocular of glaucoma which affects over 70 million people worldwide. We applied data mining techniques, linear and the matrix operations, efficiently calculated the network and estimated the possible function of the“node” genes of the retina and optic of glaucoma, in order to provide new thought and method on the pathogenesis of glaucoma.
METHODS: The data in this study is from Gene Expression Omnibus ( GEO ) which belong to Nation Center for Biotechnology Information ( NCBI) , the quality of the raw data CEL files was processed and analyzed by the Expression software which belong to Affymetrix Inc. , Santa Clare, CA, USA. Significant analysis method ( SAM) which base on the T test was used to identified the significant genes. Based on GRNInfer and Gvedit soft we set up gene networks of optic and retina of mice and further more enriched analysis which based on DAVID and MAS3. 0 online software were processed.
RESULTS:The analysis between the group of the optic nerve heads and retinas in different stage of glaucoma showed that the amount of significant different expressed genes in the optic never head group increased significantly comparing with the group of retina in the early stage of glaucoma, the analysis of the genes network construction show that:the node genes of optic nerve heads included Unc13c、Kif5a、TRPM1、PANX; and the node genes of retina include POU4F1, NEFL, BC03870, CALB2. Metabolic pathways enrichment analysis which based on MAS3. 0 online platform show that there was mainly the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, tyrosine metabolism, melanogenesis, Nitrogen metabolism, Gap junction, Leukocyte transendothelial migration metabolism pathway enriched out in optic nerve head; and there was mainly amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, neurodegenerative disorders, prostate cancer, leukocyte transendothelial migration metabolism pathway enriched out in retina.
CONCLUSION:By understanding bioinformatics result, it seems optic were more sensitive than the retina to high intraocular pressure, and weather high expression of TYrp1 gene can be as a sensitive diagnostic item require more evidence back up. Functional enrich analysis of node gene showed that cytoskeleton reconstructed, molecular motor and nutrients transport function improve in optic; and in retina, the most prominent finding in retina was enrichment function modules were focus on regeneration, repairing and differentiation of cells, which remind that we should reinforce research on reparation of retina of primary glaucoma. Metabolic pathways enrichment analysis show that inflammatory response plays prominent place in optic and retina of primary glaucoma, because of the optic narrow and crowed anatomic shape, nutrient metabolism and substances transfer enrichment modules play an important role in optics of primary glaucoma.

Objective To study the differences of esophageal manometry (M),pH set-up method (P) and X-ray (X) on positioning of the 24-hour esophageal pH catheter and relative factors. Methods Fifty subjects underwent M, then pH catheter was located by P and X. The difference between methods and the relative factors such as body height,lower esophageal sphincter (LES) length etc were analyzed. The difference of less than 2 cm between two methods was accepted. Results The length between the location determined by M,Pand X and nose were (37.9 ±2.9),(40.8 ±4.4) and (40.7 ±5.3) cm, respectively.There was significant difference between P and M as well as between X and M (P＜ 0.01 ). The coincidence rate was 62.0%(31/50) between P and M;84.0%(42/50) between P and X;and 58.0%(29/50) between X and M. Compared with P,M was (2.9 ±3.9) cm nearer to the stomach. Age, body height and LES length were main factors which affect the difference between P and M (P＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05),body height and LES length were main factors which affect the difference between X and M (P＜0.05 or ＜0.01). Conclusions Compared with M, the location determined by P is nearer to stomach. The location of X is varied. Body height and LES length are main relative factors.

Objective To assess the prevalence of Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire (PDQ)personality deviations in patients referred for functional dyspepsia (FD) with reliable and universal psychological measures, and to explore the relationship between co-occurring PDQ-personality deviations and functional dyspepsia. Methods The sample comprised 246 patients referred for functional dyspepsia. Four groups were divided according to their patterns of gastrointestinal symptoms: the FD group, FD with refluxlike symptom group(FD + RS group), FD with irritable bowel syndrome group( FD + IBS group), and FD with reflux-like symptom and irritable bowel syndrome group ( FD + RS + IBS group). Participants were assessed with the Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire for DSM-Ⅳ ( PDQ-4 ) to evaluate the presence of personality deviations. Results Overall 65% patients scored positive for any personality deviation, male and female alike. Cluster C (anxious/fearful) personality was most commonly found in FD patients (142 patients, 57.7% ). The FD + IBS group and the FD + RS +IBS group had significantly higher total PDQ scores than the FD group (23.39 ± 8. 77 and 24. 22 ± 10. 97 vs 18.98 ± 11.88, P ＜ 0. 05, respectively),indicating that FD patients with greater level of personality deviations tend to report other symptoms involving the esophagus and lower gastrointestinal tract. Reflux-like symptom without actual pathological acid regurgitation indicated cluster A (odd/eccentric) personality deviations. Conclusions The current study shows personality deviations are common in patients referred for functional dyspepsia. Negative emotions,maladaptive coping, and lack of social support, may strongly influence their healthcare-seeking behavior.There is no single personality type specific for some kind of gastrointestinal symptom. But FD patients with personality deviations tend to report other symptoms involving the esophagus and lower gastrointestinal tract.
