Objective To investigate the effect of different operations for cardia carcinoma on the postoperative anastomotic stoma complications.Methods Between December,2000 and May,2007,the clinical data 156 patients with carcinoma of gastric cardia who received different operations were analyzed retrospectively.Results The thoracoabdominal incision was performed in 57 cases,abdominal incision in 68 and left thoracic incision in 31 cases.The occurrence rate of anastomotic stoma complications in the patients with thoraco-abdominal,abdominal and left thoracic incision was 7.0%(4/57),7.4%(5/68),and 12.9%(4/31),respectively.The occurrence rate of anastomotic stoma complications in the patients using 25 mm end-end autosuture was 4.2%(4/95),in using of the 28mm autosuture group was 16.1%(P=0.0102).Conclusions The occurrence rate of anastomotic stoma complications can be reduced by choosing correct operation methods and using autosuture correctly.

Objective To investigate the eftect of VEGF gene transtection on endothelial progenitor cell derived from murine bone marrow.Methods Wistar rat's bone marrow was obtained, mononuclear cell isolated,and endothelial progenitor cells(EPS)were cultured in EGM-2MV.EPCs were identified by immunocytochemistry and electron microscope.EPCs were transfected by liposome mediated pcDNA3.0-hVEGF165.VEGF protein level was determined in the cultural medium supernatant after VEGF transfection by ELISA.Cultural medium supernatant was used to co-culture with ECV304,VEGF protein activity was evaluated by MTT.EPCs expression of vWF,VEGF,FLK-1 was detected by immunocytochemistry.Results EPCs were effectively enriched by EGM-2MV,and the EPCs obtained express the typical cell surface markers such as CD34,CD133,FLK-1.The concentration of VEGF protein in supernatant reaches 1280 pg/ml in the 7th day after pcDNA3.0-hVEGF transfection.No influence of EPCs proliferation could be found after transfeetion.The cell surface marker expression of VEGF,FLK-1, vWF became higher with time,and the ratios of positive cell were 88.52%,82.65% and 95.97% respectively.Conclusions pcDNA3.0-hVEGF165 transfeet EPCS mediated by liposome could excrete a high concentration of functional VEGF protein.It is helpful for EPC to maintain the characters of endothelial cell after VEGF gene transfection and differentiate to mature endothelial cell.

Objective To assess the clinical value of high-frequency electrocautery in the treatment of massive hemorrhage of presacral venous plexus. Methods The clinical data of 8 patients with presacral venous hemorrhage treated with high-frequency electrocautery from February 2005 to March 2008 were analyzed. Once the presacral venous hemorrhage happened, the bleeding site was pressed with a gauze or finger and the accumulated blood was aspirated. Then, while simultaneously withdrawing the gauze or finger over the bleeding sites, high-frequency electrocautery was applied with a power of 80-100 W to coagulate all the bleeding sites. Results High-frequency electrocautery was used to stop bleeding in the 8 patients, and no electrocautery related complica-tions occurred postoperatively. Conclusions High-frequency electrocautery for massive hemorrhage of presacral venous plexus is simple, efficient and safe.

A canine distemper virus strain was isolated from the lung of dog coming from Aksu in Xing Jiang using lung primary M cell during the CDV molecular epidemiological study. It was demonstrated to be a virulent strain of CDV by a series of systematic identification such as morphology , serology neutralization test, canine infection test, and molecular virology test.

OBJECTIVEThis preliminary study aims to investigate the effects of titanium and titanium alloy micro-nano-dimensional topography on the biological behavior of osteoblasts in vitro.

METHODSElectrolytic etching (EE) method was used to produce micro-nano dimensional titanium surfaces. The surfaces were observed to determine their effects on the adhesion, proliferation, cell morphology, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of osteoblasts.

RESULTSThe surfaces of the titanium and titanium alloy groups exhibited higher adhesion and proliferation of osteoblasts than those of the mechanical group. The titanium surface was covered with a group of cells, a large number of filopodia, and functional particles. The ALP activity of the titanium group was significantly higher than that of the titanium alloy and mechanical groups.

CONCLUSIONEE method in pure titanium and titanium alloy surfaces result in bowl-like nests and nanostructures of different diameters and depths. The diameters of the pure titanium and titanium alloy surfaces range from 30 to 50 μm and 5 to 8 μm, respectively. The former is more conducive to promote the proliferation and differentiation of cells.

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the spatial organization of neurons, astrocytes and vessels in rat brain. METHODS: Cerebral vascular was shown by vivi-perfusion with ink. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunohistochemistry and nissl's staining were performed on the serial sections of frozen brain tissues. RESULTS: Astracytes distributed along the branches of blood vessels, and neurons in the region of the relatively rich blood vessels. Neurons and astrocytes presented regional distribution. CONCLUSION This method can well indicate the spatial organization of neurovascular unit, the regional differences in the distribution may be related to physical activities and the corresponding adjustment function.

Thyroid cancer is the one of the most common endocrine tumors. The biological behaviors and prognoses of the thyroid cancer of different histological types remarkably differ. The highly invasive thyroid cancer responds poorly to traditional therapies. Recent research advances in the molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of thyroid cancer have revealed the roles of many genetic and epigenetic variations such as gene mutation, abnormal gene amplification, and abnormal gene methylation in the development of thyroid cancer, which provides new insights in the molecular diagnosis, prognosis, and target therapy of the thyroid cancer.

Objective To analyze the recurrence and metastasis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after minimally invasive surgery. Methods 123 patients with NSCLC underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy from January 2008 to December 2013 were enrolled in the study. Their perioperative data and follow-up results were analyzed, and postoperative recurrence and metastasis were recorded. Multivariate logistics regression analysis was performed to investigate the influencing factors of postoperative recurrence and metastasis. Results The median operative time was 165 min (60 ~ 430 min) and the median intraoperative blood loss was 95 ml (20 ~ 3100 ml). Postoperative complications occurred in 15 cases (12.2%). All patients were followed up regularly after discharge, and the median follow-up time was 23.5 months (6 ~ 69 months). During the follow-up period, postoperative recurrence and metastasis occurred in 36 cases (29.3%) and 42 cases (34.1%), including 16 cases (13.0%) patients simultaneously appeared recurrence and metastasis. The ipsilateral lung (52.8%) was the most common site of recurrence, followed by mediastinal lymph nodes (38.9%). Bone (28.6%) was the most common site of metastasis,followed by contralateral lung (26.2%) and brain (19.0%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ, mediastinal lymph node metastasis and low differentiation were independent risk factors of postoperative recurrence (P < 0.05) while stage Ⅱ ~ Ⅲ , number of lymph node metastasis ≥ 3, without postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy were independent risk factors of postoperative metastasis (P < 0.05). Conclusions For patients with NSCLC, recurrence and metastasis after thoracoscopic lobectomy occurred mainly in the ipsilateral lung and bone. TNM staging, mediastinal lymph node metastasis, differentiation degree, lymph node metastases, postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy were related with postoperative recurrence and metastasis.
