Objective To investigate the risk factors of gallbladder neoplastic polyps,to determine the proper surgical indications,and to understand more about the clinical characteristics of gallbladder adenoma.Methods The clinical data of 748 patients diagnosed to have polypoid lesion of gallbladder (PLG) and underwent cholecystectomy from January 1998 to December 2012 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine were retrospectively reviewed.Results Among 748 patients,340 had abdominal symptoms.Postoperative histopathology showed non-neoplastic polyps (n =659),gallbladder adenoma (n =68),gallbladder cancer (n =15) and no polyps (n =6).The mean diameters of the nonneoplastic lesions and the neoplastic polyps were (9.38 ± 3.44) mm and (14.55 ± 5.71) mm,respectively (P ＜ 0.01).The average age of the patients with non-neoplastic lesions was (44.14 ± 11.42) years and (47.39 ± 12.82) years in those with neoplastic polyps (P ＜ 0.05).The proportion of solitary PLG was 41.4％ (253/611) and 59.59％ (47/79) for the non-neoplastic lesions and the neoplastic polyps respec tively (P ＜ 0.01).The size of PLG (13.34 ± 4.18 mm vs.20.07 ± 8.19 mm,P ＜ 0.05) and the age of the patient (45.78 ± 11.66 years vs.54.13 ± 15.82 years,P ＜0.05) between the gallbladder adenoma and gallbladder cancer groups were significantly different.Gallbladder adenoma or dysplasia was identified in 66.7％ (10/15) of gal1bladder cancer specimens.Conclusions Patients with PLG and with abdominal symptoms,large size (≥ 10 mm),old age (≥50 y) and solitary polyp are indications for cholecystectomy.Gallbladder adenoma may develop to gallbladder cancer within 10 years.

ObjectiveTo explore changes of serum adiponectin and insulin resistance in patients with endometrial cancer and to evaluate the clinical significance and correlation.MethodsThe serum levels ofadiponectinandfastinginsulinweredeterminedbyELISA, electro-chemilluminometryand radioimmunoassay in 35 patients with endometrial cancer [ all patients divided into two groups,A1 group belonged to without postmenopausal when first visiting (n =20),A2 group belonged to postmenopausal when first visiting (n ＝ 15 ) ] and 30 cases of health control.The result of homeostasis nodel assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index was calculated.ResultsThe levels of adiponectin in A1 group was lower than that ofhealth control group [(6.7±1.1) versus (10.0 ±1.4) ng/L,P＜0.05],and HOMA-IR was higher than that of health control group ( 3.5 ± 1.8 versus 1.1 ± 0.7,P ＜ 0.05 ).While there were not significant difference between A2 group and health control group (P ＞ 0.05 ).Adiponectin and insulin resistance was negatively correlated ( r =- 0.389,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Adiponectin reducing and insulin resistance in reproductive age patients may be the independent factors to promote endometrial cancers.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the levels of intedeukin(IL)-6, IL-15 and endometriosis (EM). Method The levels of IL-6, IL-15 in the peritoneal fluid (PF) and serum of 74 patients with EM (EM group) and 46 patients without EM (control group) were measured by double-an-tibody ELISA. Results Higher levels of IL-6 in PF and serum were observed in EM group [(1017.81±361.98) ng/L,(455.47±161.52) ng/L]than those in control group [(284.63±70.50) ng/L,(149.37± 43.09) ng/L], and there was significant difference (P<0.01). The levels of IL-6 in PF and serum in EM group with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ [(1253.44±189.63) ng/L, (556.50±93.34) ng/L]were significantly higher than those in patients with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ [(582.81±107.75) ng/L, (268.96±63.48) ng/L](P < 0.01). There was positive relationship between the levels of IL-6 in PF and serum (r=0.950, P=0.01). The levels of IL-15 in PF in EM group [(333.45±63.94) ng/L]were significantly higher than those in control group[(203.85± 70.52) ng/L](P<0.01). No significant difference was found in the levels of serum IL-15 between EM group and control group (P>0.05). No significant difference was observed either in the levels of IL-15 in PF and serum between patients with stsge Ⅲ-Ⅳ and stage of EM Ⅰ-Ⅱ (P>0.05). Conclusions The increase of IL-6, IL-15 in PF may contribute to the development of EM. Serum IL-6 levels are of clinical diagnostic value in patients with EM.

OBJECTIVE To learn the epidemiology of respiratory infection in ICU and non-ICU wards,and analyze the difference of drug resistance of Gram-negative bacilli between those two wards in order to provide the basis of empirical therapy for the respiratory infection from the different wards.METHODS The bacteria were identified by VITEK-2 and API system.Antibiotic sensitivity test adopted by K-B method.Data were analyzed by WHONET 5.3 software.RESULTS Totally 2184 strains of Gram-negative bacilli were isolated all from the respiratory tract,among which 655 strains were isolated from ICU ward and 1529 strains were from non-ICU ward.In ICU ward,the first five bacteria were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Burkholderia cepacia,Acinetobacter baumannii,Chryseobacterium meningosepticum,and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia.It showed that non-fermentatives were the main pathogenic bacteria in ICU.In non-ICU ward,the first five bacteria were P.aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumoniae,A.baumannii,B.cepacia,and S.maltophilia.Drug resistant rate of strain from ICU ward was generally higher than that from non-ICU ward,while levofloxacin in ICU ward showed the better activity than in non-ICU ward.CONCLUSIONS The respiratory infection is one of the hazards in nosocomial infection,drug resistant rate of Gram-negative bacilli from respiratory specimen in ICU is generally higher than that in non-ICU,and the main strains are the mlti-resistant non-fermentatives,which should attract the clinician′s more attention.

Objective: To study the influence of gallic acid (GA) on the migration of human gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cells, and to explore its mechanism.Methods: The human gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cells were cultured and divided into control group and 3.125, 6.250, 12.500, 25.000, 50.000,100.000 mg·L-1 GA groups. The inhibitory rates of proliferation of SGC-7901 cells in various groups were examined by MTT assay;the migration abilities of SGC-7901 cells in various groups were measured with scratch assay;the expression levels of vascular of endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in various groups were detected by immunocytochemistry.Results: Compared with control group, the inhibitory rates of proliferation of SGC-7901 cells in different doses of GA groups were significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner(F=59.451,P<0.01).Compared with control group, the wound healing rates in different doses of GA groups were significantly decreased (P<0.01).Compared with control group, the expression levels of VEGF protein in 12.500 and 25.000 mg· L-1 GA groups were decreased (P<0.05).Conclusion: GA could inhibit the proliferation and migration of SGC-7901 cells through down-regulating the expression levels of VEGF protein.

Object To study the effects of artemisinin and its analogue artemisunate on the proliferation of human breast cancer MCF-7 cell line, as well as their mechanism comparatively. Methods The inhibition of cell proliferation was determined by SRB method. Cell cycle was determined by flow cytometry (FCM) analysis. Apoptosis was confirmed by sub-G 1 cells content and DAPI method. Results The cell cycle of MCF-7 was changed greatly when treated 24 h with either 10 ?mol/L artemisinin or 1 ?mol/L artemisunate, the distribution of MCF-7 cells among S phase was reduced greatly, while inereased during G 0+G 1. However, artemisinin had weaker effect on the proliferation of MCF-7 cell, while artemisunate effectively inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7, the IC 50 was 0.31 ?mol/L. Apoptosis induced by 1 ?mol/L artemisunate was stronger than that by 10 ?mol/L artemisinin, too. Conclusion The inhibitory effect of artemisunate on the proliferation of tumor cell is stronger than that of artemisinin in vitro.
