Objective: This study is to examine the effects of different protective methods with DHCA on neuron injury of hippocampus. Methods: Sixteen pigs (22-25 kg) were divided randomly into four groups. Group I: DHCA; group II: ACP; group III: RCP; group IV: RCP+Nim. All animals were under deep hypothemia (18℃) and total circulatory arrest for 90 minutes, and then rewarmed 120 minutes until the pharyneal temperature to 36℃. End of the study, left hippocampi were removed and then dissociated. These dissociated cells were stained with Annexin V-FITC and then measured with flow cytometry to analyze neuron apoptosis. The morphological changes were examined by electron microscope. Results: Normal cell percentage was the lowest in group I. Compared with group III, normal cell percentage was higher in group II. There were no significant differences between group II and group IV, or group III and group IV. Early apoptotic cell percentage was higher in group I than that in the other three groups, and it is higher in group II than that in group III. There were no significant differences between group II and group IV, or group III and group IV. Both necrotic cell percentage and dead cell percentage were higher in group I than that in the other three groups and there was no significant difference between the other three groups (P=0.05). Conclusion: Apoptosis, necroses and death of neuron after DHCA is the main cause of postoperative nervous dysfunction. ACP has better protective effect on neuron by decreasing cell apoptosis and death. RCP could also reduce cell apoptosis and death but the effect is not as good as that of ACP. Nimodipine depresses partly calcium influx by blocking up VDCC and its protective effect is slight.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of thyroid microcarcinoma using contrastenhanced ultrasound(CEUS).Methods The CEUS characteristics of 31 lesions in patients with thyroid microcarcinoma which were confirmed by surgery and pathology were retrospectively analyzed.[Results]The enhancement features of 31 lesions were hypoenhancement,morphological irregularity,and lack of a complete envelope.The time intensity curve showed late washed in and late washed out.The start-time of the lesions was later than that of normal thyroid tissue.The enhancement intensities of the lesions were lower than that of normal thyroid tissue.Conclusions The contrast enhancement patternshypoenhancement,suggested that the CEUS might provide a useful,quantitative analysis method for the diagnosis of thyroid microcarcinoma,which can improve diagnostic confidence in thyroid microcarcinoma.

Objective To study the clinic imaging features and the clinic applications of the contrastenhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in the diagnosis of gallbladder carcinoma.Methods The characteristics of CEUS were reviewed in 24 patients with gallbladder carcinoma proven pathologically. Results After injection of SonoVue, all gallbladder carcinoma of 24 cases showed enhancement and these lesions looked clearer than those in conventional ultrasound.The analysis of time-intensity curve indicated the upslope of curve was steep in the lesions,which was flat in normal liver parenchyma around.In 10 cases of thick wall of gallbladder carcinoma, quick and obvious enhancement was seen in 9 cases, 1 case showed poor enhancement during scanning,but thick and tortile blood vessels could be seen in the thickening wall.Quick and uneven enhancement was been seen in both 8 cases of soft-tissue mass and 6 cases of nodules within gallbladder.Five cases of gallbladder carcinoma with liver metastasis revealed more liver metastasis depend on CEUS.Conclusions CEUS plays an important role in diagnosis and improving the diagnostic accuracy for gallbladder carcinoma.

OBJECTIVE To study the nephrotoxicity induced by bakuchiol alone and bakuchiol combined with psoralen and to explore its mechanism. METHODS The cytotoxicities of bakuchiol and bakuchiol combined with psoralen were investigated using human renal tubular epithelial cell lines (HK-2), in presence or absence of hepatic S9 mixture. The HK-2 cells were exposed to culture medium alone (blank control), 0.5% DMSO (vehicle control), aristolochic acid Ⅰ (AAⅠ;positive control), psoralen 5 μmol·L~(-1) group, bakuchiol 5,10,20,30 and 40 μmol·L~(-1) groups, and bakuchiol+psoralen (20+5), (30+5) and (40+5)μmol·L~(-1) groups, respectively. The cell viabilities were examined by MTT assay; cell membrane injuries were examined by detecting lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release rate; and the morphological changes in HK-2 cells were observed with contrast microscope. The rate of cell apoptosis was detected by AnnexinⅤ/PI staining, and cell cycle was detected by PI staining with flow cytometry. RESULTS No cytotoxicity was found in psoralen 5 μmol·L~(-1) group. The HK-2 cell viabilities were significantly reduced after 4, 24, 48 and 72 h of exposure to either bakuchiol 20, 30 and 40 μmol·L~(-1)groups or bakuchiol+psoralen (20+5), (30+5) and (40+5)μmol·L~(-1) groups in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The IC_(50) values of bakuchiol were (26.4±4.8), (21.8±0.6) and (24.1±0.8)μmol·L~(-1) for 24, 48 and 72 h exposure, respectively. The cytotoxicity of bakuchiol was significantly decreased in presence of hepatic S9 mixture. The LDH release rate of HK-2 cell increased significantly after 24 h of exposure to bakuchiol 20,30 and 40 μmol·L~(-1) or bakuchiol+psoralen groups. With the concentration and time increasing, the HK-2 cells became more and more contracted and rounded. In bakuchiol 40 μmol·L~(-1) or bakuchiol+psoralen (20+5), (30+5) and (40+5)μmol·L~(-1) groups, HK-2 cells showed apoptotic characters. In bakuchiol or bakuchiol+psoralen groups, apoptotic cells significantly increased and cells in G2 phase markedly decreased. CONCLUSION Bakuchiol has a significant cytotoxicity in HK-2 cells, and combined with psoralen can not decrease its toxicity. The cytotoxicity of bakuchiol is significantly reduced in the presence of hepatic S9 mixture. The possible mechanisms of the renal cytorotoxicity of bakuchiol are as follows: ① direct damage to the cell membrane; ② inducing cell apoptosis; ③ inhibiting intracellular DNA synthesis and block cell mitosis and proliferation.

Background and purpose: Adenocarcinoma is the main type of lung cancer and the ages of most patients with adenocarcinoma are over-40 years, the young patients with the disease are rare, and the 5-year survival rate of the young male with lung adenocarcinorna is poor. This study was done to explore the survival and prognosis of young male with lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: A total of 110 surgically treated patients with lung adenocarcinoma were analyzed retrospectively to study the relationship between the prognostic factors and survival. Results: The analysis showed that the overall 5-year survival rate of the young male with lung adenocarcinoma was 34.5%, it was 29.0% for smokers and 42.6% for non-smokers(P<0.05). The 5-year survival rates of staging Ⅰ, lI ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 68.8%,35.7%, 14.3% and 0, respectively(P<0.01),the survival rates of the patients with the number of involved lymph nodes>3 compared to ≤3 were 28.5% and 48.1%(P<0.01). Conclusion: Smoking, p-TNM, the number of involved lymph nodes was correlated with the survival, effective smoking control efforts and total lymphadenectomy are important to the survival of lung adenocarcinoma among young males.
