Objective To study the feasibility and outcome of minimally invasive percutaneous antegrade and transurethral antigrade ureteroscope technology in treatment of ureterovesical anastomosis obstruction in transplanted kidney.Method Endo-incision, dilation and indwelling internal ureteral stents by minimally invasive percutaneous antegrade and transurethral antigrade ureteroscope tech -nology were performed in 16 transplanted kidney patients with ureterovesical anastomosis obstruction. Renal function was valuated.Results Retrograde ureteroscope balloon dilation and indwelling an internal ureteral stent were carried out in one case. Percutaneous endo-incision, dilation and indwelling internal ureteral stents under ureteroscopy were preformed on 13 patients. Two patients accepted open operation because the length of the obstruction segment was more than one cm. After a follow-up of 1-24 months, internal drainage and renal function were normal in 13 patients. Serum creatinine ranged from 45 ?mol/L to 113 ?mol /L. The renal function of 3 patients didn’t recover completely and the serum creatinine was 158-315 ?mol /L.Conclusion Minimally invasive percutaneous antegrade and transurethral antigrade ureteroscope technology in treatment of ureterovesical anastomosis obstruction in transplanted kidney were relatively effective, and safe and simple to manipulate.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of imiquimod 5% cream applied with different treatment courses for preventing the recurrence of condyloma acuminatum lesions.Methods A randomized,controlled clinical trial was conducted.Patients with condyloma acuminatum were divided into 3 groups (Group A,B and C).Group A was treated with CO2 laser only.Group B was given topical im- iquimod 5% cream three times a week over 4 weeks after laser treatment of visible warts.Group C was giv- en topical imiquimod 5% cream three times a week over 8 weeks after laser treatment of visible warts.All patients were followed up for 6 months.Results A total of 90 patients with anogenital warts were enrolled in,and finished the study.The recurrence rates of the Group A,B,and C were 64.29%,50%,21.88%,re- spectively,in 6 months of follow-up.The recurrence rate was statistically lower in Group C than in Group A and B (P=0.0033),and in Group C than in Group B (P=0.0457).Adverse reactions occurred in 73.33% and 84.38% of patients in Group B and C,respectively,which included erythema,itching,pain, burning,erosion,ulceration and flu-like symptoms.There was no significant difference of the frequencies of adverse reactions between Group B and C (P＞0.05).Conclusion The recurrence rate of anogenital warts declines significantly in patients treated with imiquimod 5% cream for 8 weeks,but not in the 4 weeks group,after laser therapy.The frequencies of adverse reactions are not significantly different in both groups.

[Objective]To evaluate the curative effect of the one-stage anterior radical debridement,titanium mesh cage bone fusion and inernal fixation for the treatment of thoracolumbar spinal tuberculosis.[Method]Twenty-two thoracolumbar spinal tuberculosis cases from January 2003 to February 2006 were analyzed retrospectively,among whom 12 were male and 10 were female,age ranging from 19 to 76 years with a mean of 36 years.T_9~L_5 vertebrae were involved in,in detail 1 was involved in single vertebra,17 were involved in 2 vertebrae,3 were involved in 3 vertebrae,1 was involved in the type of jumping style,M=2,Q=0.All cases received one-stage anerior radical debridement,titanium mesh cage bone fusion and internal fixation along with strict anti-tuberculosis chemical therapies.The improvement of symptoms and neurological function,angles reduced by the surgeries and bone fusion,angles lost as well as the subsidence of the titanium mesh during the long-term follow-up were observed and compared statistically.[Result]No recurrence was found in the follow-up period extending from 6 months to 24 months with an averaging of 12.5 months.All the incisions acquired primary healing.The systematic and local symptoms were released postoperatively.Neurological function recovered in different degrees(P

Aim to explore the adverse drug reactions (ADR) characteristic and calculate the ADR incidence of Dengzhan Xixin injection (DZXX). A multicenter, large sample, and prospective cohort study was conducted from August 2012 to December 2014. A total of 31 724 patients using DZXX were observed. A total of 31 724 patients with 15 ADR cases among 31 724 patients, accounting for 0.06% , were reported. There were 8 male patients ADRs and 7 female patients with ADRs. ADRs included skin rashes, itching, headache, red face, abdominal pain, etc. 1 case with rhubarb radix scutellariae allergies. These ADRs happened from 5 min to within 0.5 h after DZXX were used to treat patients. ADR patients discontinued treatment, of which 2 patients used promethazine for recovery and improvement. There were 2 cases with different DZXX concentration, out of the normal range. DZXX injection could cause some ADRs. Users must not ignore these and be careful of its related side effects. This study was a cohort with large sample, which should produce strong evidence for clinical practice. However, there was still weak evidence to conclude that it was a safe Chinese medicine injection in clinical practice.

AIM: To investigate the serum levels of interleeukin-6(IL-6), interleukin-8(IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1)in female patients with pre-menstruation recurrent aphthous ulceration(RAU). METHODS: Serum levels of IL-6,IL-8,TNF-? and sICAM-1 in 21 pre-menstruation RAU patients were examined using ELISA technique, and compared to 10 healthy individuals and 22 the female RAU patients unrelated to menstrual cycle. RESULTS: The serum levels of IL-6,IL-8,TNF-? in patients with pre-menstruation RAU were not only significantly higher than that in the normal control group( P

It is well known that Tn5B1-4(commercially known as the High Five)cell line is highly susceptible to baculovirus and provides superior production of recombinant proteins when compared to other insect cell lines.But the characteristics of the cell line do not always remain stable and may change upon continuous passage.Recently an alphanodavirus,named Tn5 Cell Line Virus(or TNCL Virus),was identified in High Five cells in particular. Therefore,we established a new cell line,QB-Tn9-4s,from Trichoplusia ni,which was determined to be free of TNCL virus by RT-PCR analysis. In this paper,we describe the development of a novel cell clone,QB-CL-B,from a low passage QB-Tn9-4s cell line and report its susceptibility to ACMNPV,and the level of recombinant protein production. This cell clone was similar to its parental cells QB-Tn9-4s and Tn5B 1-4 cells in morphology and growth rate;although it also showed approximately the same responses to AcMNPV infection and production of occlusion bodies,there were higher levels of recombinant protein production in comparison to QB-Tn9-4s(parental cells)and High5 cells.

Induced pluripotent stem cell is a landmark in the stem cell study field, which has rapidly developed in the past 10 years.By obtaining induced pluripotent stem cells from somatic cell, and then differentiating into cardiomyocyte, various cardiomyocyte disease models could be established,which can be used for research of disease mechanisms, drug screening and gene therapy.This review introduces the successfully established cardiomyocyte disease models from human induced pluripotent stem cells, and points out the problems and prospects.

Objective:To explore the role of peripheral blood monocyte subsets in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA),we therefore decided to compare the percentage of monocyte subpopulations in peripheral blood,as well as cytokines secretion function,to that of healthy controls. Methods:22 patients with RA and 22 cases of healthy controls ( HC) were drew 3 ml fresh venous blood into a tube containing heparin. The percentage of monocyte subsets,expression of Toll-like receptor(TLR)2,HLA-DR,triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1) on intermediate monocyte and mean fluorescence intensity(MFI) of intracellular tumor necrosis factor-α ( TNF-α) were evaluated with the methods of flow cytometry ( FCM ) . The correlation between percentage of monocyte subsets and serum cytokines was explored. Statistical significance between parametric data was determined by the students't-test. Results:Compared to HC controls, the percentages of intermediate monocytes were significant higher in RA patients [ ( 11. 7 ± 1. 6)% vs (4. 6±1. 2)%,P<0. 05],as well as the expression(MFI) of TLR2 (750. 2±110. 3 vs 526. 8±98. 6) and TREM-1 (58. 4± 12. 1 vs 40. 3±10. 2) on intermediate monocytes (P<0. 05). The expression of HLA-DR on intermediate monocytes of RA patients had no difference with HC controls (P>0. 05),while MFI of intracellular TNF-αin intermediate monocytes of RA patients were significant higher than that of HC controls (46. 3±6. 4 vs 36. 7±8. 3,P<0. 05). In addition,RA patients showed a positive correlation between the percentage of CD14highCD16+ monocytes and DAS28 scores(r=0. 538,P=0. 009),as well as the serum levels of TNF-α,IL-17 ( r=0. 471,P=0. 027;r=0. 593,P=0. 003). Conclusion:Monocyte subpopulations from RA patients are abnormally skewed toward to in-termediate monocytes which has high expression of TLR2 , TREM-1 and the function of TNF-α secretion. Therefore, intermediate monocytes may play a role in the pathophysiology of RA. By modulating polarization or blocking monocyte cell surface receptors could be a new treatment of RA.
