Objective To summarize the clincical experience of transumbilical Laparoendoscopic Single-site (LESS) nephrectomy and to evaluate its safety and efficacy. Methods From December 2008 to August 2010, we have performed 20 cases of transumbilical LESS nephrectomy by Tri-Port system, of which 9 patients underwent LESS radical nephrectomy (left 8, right 1, stage T1 ), 1 patient underwent LESS radical resection of right ureteral carcinoma, 10 patients underwent LESS simple nephrectomy (left 5, right 5). The Tri-Port system was inserted transperitoneally through a 2 cm umbilical incision. A 5-mm 30° telescope was introduced through the port to visualize the operative field. Flexible equipment and standard laparoscopic equipment were used to perform the procedures.The incisions were extended to about 6cm in order to remove the specimens. Results Conversion to open surgery was necessary in one LESS radical resection of right ureteral carcinoma and one LESS simple nephrectomy, while the remaining 18 cases were successful (the addition of a single 5-mm port was necessary in 2 cases of LESS radical nephrectomy). The mean operative time was 197 min (85-510 min), mean estimated blood loss was 126 ml (50-400 ml), without blood transfusion in the perioperative period, mean postoperative hospital stay was 6.3 d (3-14 d), and mean duration of catheter drainage was 3.6 d (0- 14 d). Conclusions Transumbilical LESS nephrectomy is feasible, safe,minimally invasive and cosmetic. Long-term follow-up and a clinical control study are needed for evaluating clinical outcomes.

Mesenchymal stem cells are a kind of non-hematopoietic adult stem cells with selfrenewal and multilineage differentiation potential, which have special biological characteristics, such as secreting hematopoietic growth factors, reconstructing hematopoietic microenvironment, low immunogenicity, and can be transfected and expressed by exogenous gene. This article summarizes the biological characteristics of MSCs and their models of application to acute radiation disease in animals.

Objective:To design and construct the replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF which can silence the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) by RNA interference and verified its function. Methods:A specific sequence, which was verified to be able to silence CTGF gene with high efficiency, was cloned into pSES-HUS vector to produce the shuttle plasmid pSES-siCTGF. The plasmid after Pme Ⅰ linearization was cotransduced with pAdEasy into BJ5183 E.coli strains to construct recombinant vector Ad-siCTGF. After linearization treatment with Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion Ad-siCTGF was transfected into HEK293 cells via liposome mediation. The recombinant adenovirus was packaged. The titer of the Ad-siCTGF was increased after three times of cross-infection. 4T1 cells were infected with the adenovirus. The silencing efficiency was tested by real-time fluorescence quantitative (RFQ)-PCR and Western blotting.Results:Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion electrophoresis indentified that recombinant adenovirus was successfully constructed. The titer of the recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF was 2.6×10~(10) pfu/mL after amplification and purification. The CTGF mRNA and protein expression in 4T1 cells were decreased by 36.27% and 31.56%, respectively, compared with the control groups.Conclusion:The recombinant adenovirus which can silence the expression of CTGF was successfully constructed. It laid a good foundation for further investigation of the action mechanism of CTGF in tumor cells.

Objective: To study the methylation state within MAGE 1 B′B promoter in gastric carcinoma and the association between demethylation and pathological differentiation, the association between demethylation and clinical stage. Methods: Using methylation sensitive restriction analysis followed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR),we studied 80 specimen that were obtained from surgical samples (including 40 gastric carcinoma and 40 matched adjacent normal gastric mucosae).Results: An demethylation state was identified in DNA from gastric carcinoma specimens.The demethvlation rate is 25%(10/40).In contrast,no demethylation state was identified in DNA from matched adjacent normal gastric mucosae. The differences were Significant statistically. ln our study, the demethylation in poorly, moderately, and well differentiated glandulous cell carcinoma were detected at frequencies of 50%,18.7% and 8.3%,respectively, The differences were significant statistically ( P

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of the clysters No. 1 of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in inflammatory bowel disease on rats and search the new way and evidence for IBD cures.

METHODThe rats were divided into four groups: normal control group (I), model control group (II), Sulfasalazine( SASP) treating control group (III) and traditional Chinese medicine clysters No. 1 group (IV). There were 20 rats per group. Trinitrobenzenesulfonic Acid was used to induce the experimental models. The WBC, RBC, platelets of peripheral blood were monitored. The animals are put to death by dislocation in 4, 7, 14 and 21 d after giving the medicine respectively. The pathological changes of the intestines were observed in different times.

RESULTCompared with group II, the counting of platelets of group IV got rise in seventh day after administration, as of well as the group III. There were no statistical differences in WBC and RBC, compared with group II after the medicine administration for two weeks. There was no witness in effect of SASP for IBD on rats on organize pathology in this experiment. The enema No.1 lightened pathological injure and promoted the effect of restoration of IBD on rats obviously.

CONCLUSIONThe TCM enema No. 1 has anti-IBD activities on inflammatory bowel disease in rats. The foundation is established that the IBD cure on clinic and the basis have been provided the action mechanism of Chinese medicine which is utilized to IBD further.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation of vasectomy with the risk of prostate cancer in Chinese men.

METHODSWe systematically searched the databases CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library for the literature relating the relationship between vasectomy and the risk of prostate cancer in Chinese males up to December 2014. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two investigators independently selected the eligible publications, evaluated their quality, and extracted relevant information, followed by a meta-analysis with the software STATA 12.0.

RESULTSNine studies were included in the analysis involving 1 202 cases of prostate cancer and 4,496 controls. Random-effect model analysis revealed no statistically significant correlation between vasectomy and the risk of prostate cancer (OR = 1.05; 95% CI 0.62-1.79), with an obvious heterogeneity (P < 0.001, I2 = 85.7%). No significant publication bias was found among the included studies (Egger, P = 0.824; Begg, P = 0.348).

CONCLUSIONThe results of our meta-analysis do not support the association of vasectomy with the increased risk of prostate cancer in Chinese population.
