Objective To explore the clinical significance of preserving the intercostobrachial nerve (ICBN) in the radical resection of breast cancer. Method All of 140 cases of breast cancer with Ⅰ - Ⅲ a stage operable eligible,were randomly divided into the experimental group with 79 cases (7 cases were rejected, 1 case was lost) that patients received radical resection of breast cancer with preservation of ICBN,and the control group with 61 cases (2 cases were lost) that patients received routine radical resection of breast cancer based on the time of admission. Analyzed postoperative local recurrence and compared to sensory dysfunction of the two groups. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups of patients in the rate of postoperative local recurrence [0-4.2% ( 3/71 ) vs. 0-3.4% (2/59)] ( P ＞ 0.05 ). The local sensory disturbance of the experimental group [2.8% (2/71 )-11.3% (8/71)] was significantly lower than the control group [54.2%(32/59)-71.2%(42/59)], there was significant difference between the two groups (P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusion Radical resection of breast cancer with preservation of ICBN is an ideal operation in breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the correlation between GSTP1 exon5 A/G polymorphism and clinic phenotype of COPD in the population of the Han nationality from southwest China.Methods Using PCR followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP),genotypes of Ile105Val polymorphism in exon5 of GSTP1 were determined in 91 patients with COPD and 87 healthy control subjects.Results No significant differences were observed in the frequencies of genotypes and alleles of exon5 of GSTP1 between COPD patients and the healthy controls.The frequency of Ile105 in pink puffer patients was much more than that in the blue bloater patients.The CT scores of emphysema in patients with Ile105 was significantly higher than those with Val105.Conclusions The genetic polymorphism of exon5 of GSTP1 may not be associated with the susceptivity of COPD in the populations of the Han nationality from southwest China,but may be correlated with clinical phenotypes and lung parenchyma damage of COPD patients in the present population.

Objective To compare the anticoagulation effect of regional citrate and heparin in patients with sustained low-efficiency hemodialysis (SLED).Method This study was conducted in the teaching hospital of Sichuan University between November 2011 and January 2013.Sixty-three patients suffering from acute kidney injury or end-stage renal diseases (ESRD) were enrolled and further randomized to 2 groups:citrate and heparin anticoagulation treatment groups in SLED.SLED was conducted by Fresenius 4008sARrTplus dialyzer for 8 hours each session,and blood flow was set at 150 ml/min.Prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and platelet (PLT) count were analyzed.Result Sixty-three patients underwent 118 sessions of SLED.Among them,59 patients (93.7％) was discharged after treatment or converted to outpatient intermittent hemodialysis,and 4 patients died of multiple organ failure during hospitalization.Compared with that in the citrate group,both PT and APTT in heparin group was significantly higher [PT:(15.5 ± 2.0) s vs (12.3 ± 2.7) s,P ＜ 0.001 ; APTF:(56.0 ± 10.9) s vs (32.8 ± 6.1) s,P ＜ 0.001 ; respectively] at 2 h during SLED.However,the PT and APTT levels in heparin group decreased afterwards and were similar with those in the citrate groups at 5 h during treatment.There is no difference on PLT counts between these two groups after treatment.Conclusion The anticoagulation effect of regional citrate and heparin was similar in patients when receiving SLED.Regional citrate may be an alternative anticoagulant approach for the patients at high risk of bleeding who require the treatment of SLED.

The paper is to report the study of pharmacokinetics of transdermal administered nicotine in the brain of freely moving rat by using microdialysis with stable labeled isotope as internal standard. The pharmacokinetic behavior of nicotine in Sprague Dawley rat brain was investigated after intranasal administration (3.75 mg). Brain fluid samples were collected by intracerebral microdialysis with DL-nicotine as internal standard. Concentrations of nicotine and DL-nicotine in the sample were measured by HPLC-MS/MS. Main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and analyzed by Das 2.0 pharmacokinetic software. The recovery of nicotine and the delivery of DL-nicotine were the same. The fate of absorption and distribution was two compartment model and the values of t1/2alpha was 170.31 min, t1/2beta was 263.30 min and the AUC(0-infinity) was 2.75 x 10(5) microg x L(-1) min separately. DL-nicotine can be used to calibrate the recovery of nicotine, and the new method of stable isotope microdialysis can be used to study the pharmacokinetics of freely moving rat. It will make sense for the treatment of addiction of tobacco and provide a new thought for the research of pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamic combination.

Objective To summarize the cytological features of breast carcinoma by fine needle aspiration and differential diagonsis of breast hyperplasia and breast flbroadenoma. Methods Cytological features about 175 cases of breast cancer were analyzed,contrasted with 76 cases of breast hyperplasia and 93 eases of fibroadenoma. And 20 cases of low-diagnosis breast cancer were analyzed, compared with 13 cases of excessive diagnosis. Results The followings were found:disorderly arranged cells in 169 cases of breast cancer, about 96.9% in 175 cases,loose distance between the nucleus in 125 cases of all cases (about 71.4%). The percentage of small groups or scattered cells, medium size cells, round nucleus and irregular border nucleus was 34.3% (60/175) ,81.1% (142/175), 88.6% (155/175) and 28.6% (50/175) respectively. The nucleus/cytoplasm ratio was increased in 105 cases of all (about 60%). The nucleus/cytoplasm ratio was obviously reduced in 15 cases of all (about 8.6%). Big nucleolis were observed in 49 cases of all (about 28%). There was significant difference between nucleus size in 136 cases of all (about 77.7%). There was not myoepithelial cell in 168 cases of all (about 96%). The percentage of visible necrosis, scsttered round nucleus and integrity of cytoplasmic was 13.7% (24/175) ,89.7% (157/175), 66.9% (117/175) respectively. The cases of all above features were significantly more than those of breast hyperplasia and breast fibroadenoma (P <0.05). The percentage of large number of cells was 52.6% in 175 breast cancer cases,higher than 5.3% in 76 breast hyperplasia cases. There was a significant difference(P <0.05) between two groups. In 20 cases of low-diagnosis breast cancer the percentage of round nucleus with integrity of cytoplasmic, special arrangement cells was 70% (14 cases) ,35% (7 cases) ,higher than the cases in 13 excessive diagnosis cases. There was a significant difference(P < 0.05) between two groups. Conclusion The cell morphological characteristics of breast caner by fine needle aspiration are large number of cells, loose distance between the nucleus, disorderly arranged cells, small guoups or scattered cells, integrity of cytoplasmic, increased nuclear, round nuclear, irregular border nucleus,increased or decreased nucleus/cytoplasm ratio, big nucleoli, significant difference in nuclear size, no myoepithelial cell, visible necrosis. Most of breast cancer can be distinguished from breast hyperplasia and breast fibroadenoma by above characteristics. All those cytological characteristics are helpful to identify difficult case.
