Objective To evaluate the curative efficacy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) on bile leaks after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods Data of 12 cases, hospitalized in our hospital from March 2013 to February 2016, with bile leaks after OLT confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging of the pancreas (MRCP) or ERCP were retrospectively analyzed . The curative efficacy of ERCP was evaluated including clinical symptoms of bile leaks and complications, occurrence time and location, diagnosis and treatment process and efficacy. Results In this study, 12 cases were male patients, with the average age of 49.75 ± 8.55 (age from 35 to 62 years old). Among them 11 cases were successfully treated by endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD), and the success rate of endoscopical therapy was 91.7%, the curative rate of bile leaks was 91.7%(11/12). No ERCP related serious complications and death were found in patients. Nine cases combined with biliary strictures and/or biliary duct stone/bile plug were performed endoscopic sphinctrotomy (EST) during the first time of ERCP, and accepted further ERCP treatment after 2 weeks when the bile leaks were healed. All patients with ENBD were carried out well except one case. Conclusion ERCP is a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment method for different types of bile leaks after OLT.

Objectives To study the signiifcance of ifbrin related markers such as ifbrin monome (FM), D-dimer (D-D), fibrinogen and fibrin degradation products (FDP) in diagnosis of pre-disseminated intravascular coagulation (pre-DIC) state in children with severe pneumonia. Methods A total of 213 children with severe pneumonia in pediatric intensive care unit were divided into pre-DIC group and case control group according to the occurrence of pre-DIC. And 40 healthy children were included as normal control group. FM、D-D、FDP、prothrombin time (PT)、activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT)、ifbrinogen (FIB)、platelet count (PLT)、thrombomodulin (TM) levels were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the above indexes. Results All the markers but FIB showed signiifcant difference among the three groups (P<0 . 05 ). The differences of FM、D-D、FDP、APTT in paired comparison among the three groups were also signiifcant (P<0.01), Pre-DIC group had the highest level and case control group was the second. Pre-DIC group had higher PT than that of the other two groups (P<0 . 05 ), but PT levels in normal control group and the control group are of no signiifcant difference (P>0 . 05 ). Compared with those in normal control group, TM and PLT levels were signiifcantly higher in the other two groups (P<0 . 01 ), but the differences of TM and PLT in pre-DIC group were not signiifcant in comparison to those in case control group (P>0 . 05 ). FM、D-D、FDP had larger area under curves (AUC) for pre-DIC than other indexes ( 0 . 84、0 . 76、0 . 64 , respectively). The AUC for the joint detection of the three indexes was 0 . 85 . Conclusions Fibrin related markers such as FM、D-D and FDP are valuable indexes in diagnosis of pre-DIC state in children with severe pneumonia, the joint detection of the three indexes would help to improve diagnostic accuracy.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of young rectal carcinomain in order to improve the diagnostic level and therapeutic efficacy at the early stage.Methods Clinical data,including clinical manifestations,misdiagnosis,clinical pathology and prognosis which from 47 cases of young rectal carcinoma were analyzed retrospectively and compared with those from 99 cases of old rectal carcinoma.Results The average course of disease was 6.98 months in young patient group,it was shorter than that in old patient group(9.16 months).The misdiagnosis rate of young group(61.70%) was significantly higher than that in old group(28.28%)(P 0.05).Conclusion Compared with the old patients,advanced stage and poorly differentiated carcinoma are more common in young patients with rectal carcinoma.But the 5-year survival rates of the young and old patients are similar.In addition,T stage and lymph node metastasis are the independent prognostic factors.Therefore,early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to improve the survival rate in young patients with rectal carcinoma.

AIM: To study the effects of Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription (composition; ginseng, radix astragali, plantaginis semen, lignum sappan, chuanxiong, salvia miltiorrhiza, radix aconiti lateralis preparata, bitter orange, cassia twig) of TCM on the congestive heart failure in rats. METHODS:The rats were given doxorubicin hydrochloride by intraperitoneal injection to establish the model of congestive heart failure and were randomly divided into control group, congestive heart failure model group, Xinbao treatment group ( XB treatment) and Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription treatment group (QXYTM treatment). Normal saline, liquid medicine Xinbao and liquid medicine Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription were administered respectively to four groups by gavage. Radioimmunoassay, semi - quantitative RT - PCR and flow cytometry methods were used to determine the expressions of plasma atrial natriuretic peptide ( ANP) , renal medulla aquaporin - 2 ( AQP2 ) and heat shock protein70 (HSP70) in congestive heart failure rats before and after treatment. RESULTS: In congestive heart failure rats treated with Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription, the cardiac output and left ventricle systolic pressure increased significantly, the left ventricular end diastolic pressure decreased, and the maximum ascending and declining rate of left ventricular pressure ameliorated, thus the hemodynamics was effectively improved. Meanwhile, the level of plasma cardionatrin decreased, the abnormal expression of renal medulla AQP2 was markedly restored, and the transcription and expression of HSP70 gene were also increased. CONCLUSION: Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription promotes the recovery of the pathogenetic conditions of congestive heart failure in rare. The mechanism may be in association with a decrease in plasma ANP level, correction of renal medulla AQP2 abnormal expression and enhancement of HSP70 expression.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance and mechanism of WW domain containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene and p73 gene abnormal expression in acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL).MethodsCase-control study was used in the research.Forty-eight cases of bone marrows from ALL patients were collected,including 32 cases newly diagnosed,11 cases with complete remission and 5 case with relapse.Thirty-one cases of bone marrows from non-leukemia patients were used as control group.All the samples were collected from First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from July 2010 to July 2011.The doctors punctured patients' bone marrows 3 milliliters from the left of posterior superior iliac spine.Samples were bottled up with EDTA anti-coagulation tube.1 milliliter bone marrow was used to extract genome RNA with purity from 1.8 to 2.0.And then,the level of WWOX and p73 gene transcripts were tested immediately using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Meanwhile genome DNA was also extracted from the other 2 milliliter bone marrow with purity from 1.7 to 1.9,which was used to detect the promoter methylation of WWOX gene and the first exon methylation of p73 gene by methylation PCR (MS-PCP).x2 test and Fisher's exact test were used to compare tbe methylation status of WWOX and p73 gene.Results In 31 controls,expression of WWOX and p73 gene mRNA was 94.00％.The total expression frequency of WWOX gene mRNA in 48 ALL samples was 48.00％ (23/48),much lower than control (x2 =17.434,P =0.000 ).There was significant difference (x2 =10.471,P =0.001 ) between newly diagnosed cases 34.38％ ( 11/32),complcte remission cases (90.91％,10/11 ) and control.The total expression frequency of p73 gene mRNA in 48 ALL samples was 56.00％ (27/48),much lower than control (x2 =12.697,P =0.000).There was significant difference (P =0.012 ) between newly diagnosed cases 43.75％(14/32) and complete remission cases 90.91％(10/11).It was unmethylation in 31 controls.The total methylation frequency of WWOX gene promoter region in 48 ALL samples was 44.00％(21/48),much lower than control (x2 =18.473,P =0.000).There was significant difference (P =0.012) between newly diagnosed cases 56.25％ (18/32),complete remission cases 9.09％ (1/11 ) and control.The total methylation frequency of p73 gene the first exon region in 48 ALL samples was 35.00％(17/48),much lower than control (x2 =13.990,P =0.000).There was significant difference (P =0.033) between newly diagnosed cases 46.88％ (15/32),complete remission cases 9.09％ ( 1/11 ) and control.There was a negative correlation between the expression of WWOX gene mRNA and its methylation status(r =- 0.678,P =0.000),the same as p73 gene ( r =- 0.577,P =0.000).ConclusionsThe abnormal methylation of WWOX and p73 gene may be the major mechanism of gene silence in ALL,which leads to no expression of WWOX mRNA or p73 mRNA.And the abnormal methylation of WWOX and p73 gene may be relevant with the process of occurrence and development in ALL.It may be an effective and significant to detect methylation status of WWOX gene and p73 gene for the diagnosis and treatment of ALL patients.(Chin J Lab Med,2012,35:820-825)
