Objective To study the therapeutic methods of cholecystic duct stones. Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 158 cases of cholecystic duct stones treated in the recent 6 years was made. Results 97 of the 158 cases of cholecystic duct stones were removed by open surgical operation and 61 cases by laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).In 49 of the 61 cases treated with LC,the cholecystic duct stones were removed together with removal of the gallbladder, and 12 by duodenoscopy after LC. Conclusions One should strive to extract the cholecystic duct stones while removing the gallbladder. If the stones or stone fragments escape into the common bile duct, they could be removed through a choledochotomy at the time of the open operation ,or by postoparative duodenoscopy in cases undergoing LC. The latter method of treatment is associated with minor trauma, quick recovery and definite therapeutic results.

Objective To cleave double-stranded RNA(dsRNA) into small interference RNAs(siRNAs) that can target multiple sites within an mRNA.Methods A549 cells were isolated to incubate with 5 g/L IL-1? for different times to detect the time-dependent expression of COX-2.To generate the long dsRNA,the COX-2 gene(728 bp) was amplified by PCR with a specific forward primer that contained a T7 promoter and a specific reverse primer that contained an SP6 promoter.Then,sense strand RNAs were generated by T7 RNA polymerase and antisense strands RNAs were generated by SP6 RNA polymerase.These single strands RNAs were annealed by the standard method.We mixed dsRNA with Dicer in reaction buffer.We recovered siRNAs using RNA Purification Column.Transfections with diced siRNAs were performed using the TransMessenger Transfection Reagent in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.COX-2 mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively.PGE2 was measured by ELISA.Results IL-1? induced COX-2 protein expression in A549 cells.We recovered siRNAS that have been generated in vitro by Dicer.D-siRNAs significantly suppress the expression of COX-2 in human pulmonary epithelial.Conclusion D-siRNAs significantly suppress the expression of COX-2 in human pulmonary epithelial.

Objective BOLD-fMRI was used to observe the activated auditory cortex evoked by pure tone stimuli in patients with sensorineural hearing loss and this paper is to discuss the objective measure for patient with sensorineural hearing toss. Methods BOLD-fMRI examinations were taken in 22 patients with unilateral moderate to severe sensorneural hearing loss and 15 control subjects. The volumes and intensities of the two hemispheres of the activated auditory cortex were analyzed quantitatively. Results Significant activation was found in the temporal lobe in control subjects, and significant differences in the volume and intensity were noted between the contralateral and ipsilateral activated auditory cortexes in them (P<0.01), exhibiting clearly eontralateral predominance. When the normal ear of patients with sensorineural hearing loss received signals, there was no significant difference be-tween contralateral and ipsilateral activated auditory cortexes (P>0.05). Conclusion When the normal ear of pa-tients with sensorneural hearing loss was stimulated by pure tone, the contralateral hemisphere predominance disap-peared. This result seems to show the plasticity of auditory cortex of patients with unilateral hearing loss.
