Objective To review the clinical,histological and diagnostic aspects of 12 documented cases of nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver(NRHL),to make this condition be understood and dealt with better. Method Twelve NRHL cases were diagnosed based on liver biopsy from 300 portal hypertension patients who had been underwent splenectomy.Imaging studies were performed as part of the diagnostic evaluation.Clinical manifestation and biochemical tests were recorded at the time of diagnosis.Management and prognosis were also reviewed.Results Most patients were complicated with autoimmune disease,6 cases were diagnosed systemic lupus erythematosus and 1 was Crohn's disease and 1 suspected ulcerative colitis.Six cases were treated by prednisone and 3 cases by immunosuppressant.Eleven cases had suffered from portal hypertension.All cases had no history of viral hepatitis.Biochemical tests showed mild increase of liver enzyme and relative normal synthetic liver function.The histological finding was nodular in the hepatic parenehyma,with mild periportal fibrosis,intraportal lymphocytic infiltration,narrow and obstruction of branch of portal vein,and lack of hepatocyte necrosis.All cases were diagnosed liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension before operation.Management was directed to portal hypertension and varices bleeding with satisfactory results.Most of them keep a stable condition during the follow-up. Conclusion The NRHL was uncommon and its cause and pathogenesis was unclear,may be related with immune and hepatic blood circulation disorder.It should be considered in patients with unexplained portal hypertension and distinguished it from liver cirrhosis.Liver biopsy confirms the diagnosis.Management directed to portal hypertension may improve clinical condition.

Objective To compare sensitivity and specificity of the acute physiology,age,and chronic health evaluation system Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ),the acute physiology,age,and chronic health evaluation system Ⅲ (APACHE Ⅲ) system in predicting prognosis after cardiac operation.Methods A prospective study of 1 180 consecutive patients entering in a single cardiac postoperative intensive care unit of Anzhen hospital was assigned between November 2013 to January 2014.APACHE Ⅱ and APACHE Ⅲscore was calculated daily at least three days or until death,then compared the calibration and discrimination of the two different system using Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit and receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve.Results In discrimination analysis,ROC value of the first day after operation was(APACHE Ⅱ 0.699 、APACHE Ⅲ 0.734),ROC of the maximum(APACHE Ⅱ 0.836,APACHE Ⅲ 0.862),ROC of the maximum during the first 3 days(APACHE Ⅱ 0.814、APACHE Ⅲ 0.855),ROC of the change between the third day and the first day(APACHE Ⅱ 0.524 、APACHE Ⅲ 0.549).In calibration analysis,we compared the x2 value and overall corrected percentage of the first day value,the maximum value,the maximum value during the first 3 days,the change value between the third day and the first day of the three different system.x2 value of APACHE Ⅱ was(15.688,10.132,8.061,42.253),x2 value ofAPACHE Ⅲ was(13.608,11.196,19.310,47.576).Conclusion APACHE Ⅲ was better than APACHE Ⅱ in prediction of death risk after cardiac surgery.

Sister chromatid exchange in myelogenous cell of mice was measured to evaluate the effects of anti- mutation by the Chinese triditional medicine , Turtle shell and tortoise shell. The results showed both of them have significant anti-mutation activites.

Molecular markers have been widely used in the treatment of breast cancer. Cell proliferation markers Ki-67 antigen representing breast neoplasms proliferative activity is associated with clinic pathological features and prognosis and has an important predictive value in assessing the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. High expression of Ki-67 is a bad prognostic factor of breast cancer, which is highly related to tumor progression, metastasis and prognosis.

Objective To explore the change rule and clinical application value of hemorheologic indexes in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage ( ICH) . Methods The hemorheology indexes of 100 acute ICH patients ( ICH group) were detected within 24 h, and compared with 30 normal controls ( normal control group) . The effect of hemorheology index on history of hypertension, hemorrhage quantity and the hemorrhage location were analyzed. Results Compared with those in normal control group, the indexes of whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were significantly increased and erythrocyte aggregation index, erythrocyte deformability index and hematocrit were significantly decreased in acute stage ( all P< 0. 01 ) . Blood rheology indexes were changed significantly in hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage group (all P<0. 01), the whole blood viscosity (200 s-1 and 50 s-1 ) , erythrocyte aggregation index, hematocrit and erythrocyte sedimentation rate in non-hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage group were changed significantly ( P< 0. 05 - 0. 01 ). Compared with normal the non-hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage group, the whole blood rheology indexes except erythroate sedicmnt ation rate significantly erythrocyte sedimentation rate were significantly changed ( P< 0. 05 ) . As the hemorrhage quantity increased in each groups, the whole blood viscosity ( 200 s-1 and 50 s-1 ) and plasma viscosity of cerebral hemorrhage patients were significantly increased, otherwise the erythrocyte aggregation index was significantly decreased (P<0. 05-0. 01). There were statistical differences compared the indexes of whole blood viscosity (200 s-1 and 1 s-1 ) , plasma viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index and erythrocyte sedimentation rate among each groups of different hemorrhage locations in acute ICH patients (all P<0. 05). Conclusions The blood of acute ICH patients shows a state of concentrated, sticky, aggregation and coagulation that severely affects the prognosis. The patients with hypertension and greater hematoma changed obviously, different hemorrhage location affected differently.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and significance of the re-operation for patients with recurrent primary liver cancer.Methods The clinical data of 58 patients with post-operative recurrence after initial operation for primary liver cancer in our hospital from January 2003 to December 2008 were analyzed.They were divided into re-operation group and the other treatment group,and the 1-and 3-year survival rates were compared.Results The 23 cases of re-operation group were all treated by local radical resection plus hepatic arterial chemotherapy pump implantation,and postoperative chemotherapy was given via hepatic artery chemoembolization pump line.The 35 patients of the other treatment group underwent radiofrequency ablation plus transcatheter hepatic arterial chemoembolization via femoral artery.The 1-and 3-year survival rates in re-operation group was 100% and 82.6% respectively,which was significantly higher than that of the other treatment group(82.9% and 45.7% respectively).Conclusions Re-operation is the treatment of choice for patients with tumor recrrrencr after radical resection of primary liver cancer,provided that the conditions are suitable and the timing of operation is appropriate.

Objective To investigate the effect of strong ion-irradiation and active macrophage on vascular endothelial cells. Methods The vascular endothelial cells(ECV-304) were divided into 3 groups: ECV304(A), ECV-304 with radiation (B)and ECV-304 with active macrophage U937 and radiation(C). The survival rates, cell cycle and apoptosis of ECV-304 were determined 48 hours after irradiation. The concentrations of TGF-?1 and VEGF in the cultured supernatant were determined by ELISA method.The protein expression of the endothelial receptor KDR in ECV-304 cells was detected by immunofluorescence and flow-cytometry while its mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR. Results After high dose of ion-irrdiation, the cellular proliferation activity decreased, apopototic cells increased and the cell ratio in G2/M phase increased.In addition,The secretion of VEGF and TGF-?1 was promoted with the increased KDR expression. Active macrophages could alleviate the decrease of cellular proliferation and the increase of apoptotic cells and cell ratio in G2/M phase induced by ion-irriation.Furthermore,the VEGF secretion and the KDR expression were enhanced and the secretion of TGF-?1 was inhibited by the active macrophages. Conclusions Ion irradiation could induce the decrease of cellular proloferation, the increase of apoptotic cells and the cells in G2/M phase.This might partly be related to the inhibiting roles of TGF-?1 secreted by the ECV-304 cells.Active macrophages might protect the endothelial cells from radiation injury.
