Objective To study and analyze the cause, prevention and treatment for complications in patients with serious hypospadias repaired by one-stage urethroplasty. Methods From 1987 to 2002,275 patients with serious hypospadias were repaired by one-stage urethroplasty, there were 35 cases had complications. The classifications were penoscrotal 148 cases, scrotal 95 cases and perineal 32 cases. The lengths of new urethras were from 3.0 to 8.4 cm, the mean was (4.1?0.7) cm. Thirty-two cases were received endocrinotherapy before urethroplasty. Results The rate of complications was 12.7% for 1～3 years following survey. There were urethral fistulas 24 cases (8.7%),urethral strictures 6 (2.2%), diverticulums 3 (1.1%), chordees 2 (0.7%).The rate of urethral fistulas was the first and urethral stricture was the second, they were higher than those of other complications (P

Objective To establish a oligochip method for detection of HBV Lamivudine drug resistance and evaluate the clinical role of the chip system.Methods 388 HBV DNA positive sera from patients receiving lamivudine treatment and 559 chronic hepatitis B patients not receiving lamivudine treatment,and 359 sera from HBV DNA negative controls were assayed for HBV mutations utilizing oligonucleotide microarray.Meanwhile,these results were contrasted with Quantitative PCR and DNA sequencing method.Results The results of clinical evaluation shows that for the codons 528,552 and 555,the agreements between the microarray and sequencing data are 96.6%,98.5% and 100%,respectively.In the 559 samples,which were detected positive for HBV DNA by quantitative PCR,all but three weak positive samples were positive by the microarray,demonstrating an agreement of 99.7%.All the 359 HBsAg negative samples were shown to be negative for HBV DNA by the microarray method.Conclusions The HBV-Lamivudine oligochip is eligible to detecting wild type HBV and HBV lamivudine-mutants in patient's sera.It has great potential application of administration for lamivudine treatment in HBV patients.

Objective:To study the impact of financial compensation on the competitive strategy selection of public hospitals.Methods:Based on the quality and cost strategy selection framework of public hospitals,the evolutionary game model of strategy selection of secondary and tertiary public hospitals was established,and the influence of different financial compensation methods on the competitive strategy selection of public hospitals was analyzed by matlab simulation.Results:The more public hospitals choose the optimal strategy,the faster they reach the evolutionary stable state of the optimal strategy.The financial compensation of the same unit can change the competitive strategy choice tendency of the secondary hospitals.Regardless of the tertiary or secondary public hospitals,the impact of the compensation quality strategy is greater than the compensation cost policy,but the over-compensation quality strategy will cause the secondary hospitals to deviate from the optimal strategy.The impact of hospital competition costs on secondary public hospitals is much greater than that of tertiary public hospitals.Conclusion:To clarify the positioning and strategy of secondary and tertiary hospitals from the policy;financially increase the investment in the quality construction of tertiary public hospitals and increase the investment in the management level of secondary hospitals;strengthen supervision and management,guide the hospital reasonable competition.

Adopting the cell model of multilayer spherical symmetry and the circuit analysis, the present paper gives the calculated results of the voltages on each of several parts of malignant Tonsillar B-cells and Jurkat T lymphocytes when the first-order Gaussian pulses at different central frequency apposed on them. The relationship between the central frequency and the transmembrane voltages of plasma membrane is also given. The optimum frequency causing electroporation in nuclear envelope is given as well. The paper discusses the reasons of electroporation in membrane and DNA degradation in nuclear. The work provides a reference for usage of transient bipolar electric pulses in cancer treatment.

Nuclear envelope voltages of T cells were analyzed with a lumped circuitry for cells in combination with frequency domain power density of Gaussian pulses and monocycle pulses. According to the differences in geometric and electric parameters between normal and malignant T cells, circuitry analysis was performed. Theoretical evaluations indicated that apoptosis of malignant T cells was of feasibility, which could be applied in cancer therapy. The evaluations were in accord with the published experimental findings.

The clinical evidences of the guideline came from clinical trials based evidence-based medicine. Applied principle of the evidence was: systematic reviews, RCTs, the results from multiple factors ana-lysis, consensus, especially combined with Chinese experience and some lung cancer guidelines used in USA or Europe. All doctors who use the guideline in making therapeutic strategy must combine patients' conditions with the knowledge of biological behavior, dynamic change and response to treatment of lung cancer.

Objective:To select the differential prognostic lactic acid metabolism-related genes(LRGs)of the head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)to construct the LRGs prognostic model of HNSCC,and to clarify the potential mechanism.Methods:The HNSCC gene expression and clinical data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)Databases,the LRGs were identified through GeneCards Database,and R software was used to screen out the LRGs of HNSCC;univariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify prognosis-related genes;two different subtypes were identified based on the prognostis-related LRGs;Kaplan-Meier(K-M)curve analysis was used to compare the prognosis of the patients between two groups;CIBERSORT algorithm was used to perform the immuno-correlation analysis between two groups;multivariate Cox regression analysis and LASSO regression analysis were used to construct the prognostic model;receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)and K-M survival curve were used to assess the relationship between LRGs and survival and prognosis of the HNSCC patients.The prognostic model was validated by GSE27020,GSE41613,and GSE65858 datasets.The experiment were grouped based on risk score,and immune-related analysis and tumor score analysis were performed.Results:The TCGA Database differential analysis results showed that 1 196 LRGs were identified from HNSCC samples;univariate Cox regression analysis selected 27 differentially expressed genes(DEGs)associated with the prognosis of the HNSCC patients.Two different LRGs subtypes(Group 1 and Group 2)were identified according to the prognosis-related genes.The K-M survival curves results showed that the overall survival(OS)of the patients in Group 2 was significantly higher than that in Group 1,and the immune cell expression amount of the patients in Group 2 was also higher than that in group 1.The multivariate Cox regression and LASSO regression analysis results screened out 9 LRGs,including hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1(HPRT1),amyloid precursor protein(APP),glycogen phosphorylase L(PYGL),urokinase-type plasminogen activator(PLAU),cannabinoid receptor 2(CNR2),stanniocalcin 2(STC2),nucleotide binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 1(NLRP1),integrin-linked kinase(ILK),and forkhead box B1(FOXB1);the prognostic model was constructed.The K-M and ROC curve results indicated that the expression levels of above 9 genes were associated with the survival and prognosis of the HNSCC patients,providing good 1-year,2-year,and 3-year survival prediction effect,and the area under ROC curve(AUC)values were all greater than 0.650.Furthermore,the predictive ability of the prognosis model was validated in GSE27020,GSE41613,and GSE65858 datasets.The patients classified based on the risk scores had distinguishable immune statuses.Conclusion:The differentially expressed LRGs of HNSCC screened by bioinformatics methods are related to the survival and prognosis of the HNSCC patients;the prognostic model constructed by 9 LRGs can predict the survival status and treatment response of the HNSCC patients.
