Objective To evaluate the influence of the CT enterography (CTE) in different scan phases of small intesti?nal wall and arteriovenous vessels, and to confirm the diagnostic efficiency thereof. Methods A total of 286 patients under?went CTE were collected, and their CT image of three scan phases, including 20 s, 40 s and 60 s after injection, were record?ed. Values of reinforcement of the intestinal wall and arteriovenous enhancing degree in all phases were collected. A statisti?cal analysis was used to confirm the best phase for showing the structure. The diagnostic efficiency of the best phase of CT image was evaluated for the clinical diagnosis of small intestine and vascular lesions. Results (1) The CT value of the small intestinal wall in the intestinal phase was significantly higher than other two phases (P<0.05). There was no significant dif?ference in CT value between arterial phase and portal phase. (2) Comparison between three phases of CT values of ileum showed that artery:arterial phase>intestinal phase, and there is no statistical difference between the intestinal phase and oth?er two phases. The result of CT value of ileum vein showed that intestinal phase>portal phase>arterial phase (P<0.05). (3) The sensitivity was 95.8%, the specificity was 94.9%, the accuracy was 95.1%, the positive predictive value was 79.3%and the negative predictive value was 99.1%using CT image of intestinal period for diagnosing small intestinal diseases. (4) The intestinal period showed small intestinal lesions and confirmed by pathology including 22 cases of small intestinal lympho?ma, 10 cases of stromal tumor, 1 case adenoma, cavernous 3 cases hemangioma and 8 cases of Crohn's disease. The diagno?sis of hemangioma should be combined with arterial phase. Conclusion Small intestinal wall and blood vessels have better display performance in the intestinal phase of multiphase CT enterography, using the arterial phase and intestinal phase scan?ning, we can make an accurate diagnosis for the majority of small intestinal diseases.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of lumbar discectomy,radiofrequency ablation and annuloplusty performed with Disc-FX system under the guidance of C-arm in treatment of discogenic low back pain.Methods Twenty-eight patients with discogenic low back pain,with VAS score greater than 7,aged 27-73 yr,underwent lumbar discectomy,radiofrequency ablation and annuloplusty performed using Disc-FX system under the guidance of C-arm.The patients were followed up for 2 months after surgery and pain was assessed using VAS score.VAS scores were recorded before surgery,and at 7 and 14 days and 1 and 2 months after surgery.The effective analgesia was recorded according to VAS scores.The therapeutic effect was evaluated according to Macnab standard 2 months after surgery.Results VAS scores were significantly lower at each time point after surgery than before surgery (P ＜ 0.05).The rate of effective analgesia was 93 % at 2 months after surgery.The excellent and good rate of the therapeutic effect evaluated was 93 %.One female patient developed injury to lumbar venous plexus,and no patients developed infection of intervertebral disk,nerve root injury or spinal cord injury.Conclusion The excellent and good rate is 93 % when lumbar discectomy,radiofrequency ablation and annuloplusty performed using Disc-FX system is used for treatment of discogenic low back pain under the guidance of C-arm,with fewer side effects.

OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation of CD44 with epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT) and metastasis in nasopharyngeal cancer cells, and explore the possible mechanism of CD44 regulates EMT and metastasis in nasopharyngeal cancer cells. METHOD: The CD44 and EMT-associated proteins in 5-8F and 6-10B nasopharyngeal cancer cell lines were assayed by Western blotting. The erasion trace test was performed to observe the migratory ability of 5-8F and 6-10B nasopharyngeal cancer cells. Using lipid-mediated DNA transfection technique, the low metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer cells 6-10B were transfected in vitro with plasmid which contained CD44 gene, and then new nasopharyngeal cancer cells were obtained. The CD44 and EMT-associated proteins in 6-10B, empty vector transfected and CD44-transfected cells were assayed by Western blotting. The erasion trace test was performed to observe the alteration of migratory ability of nasopharyngeal cancer cells before and after CD44 transfection. RESULT: The expression of CD44 and EMT-associated protein MMP-9 in 5-8F was higher than that in 6-10B, but EMT-associated protein E-Cadherin in 5-8F was lower than that in 6-10B. The migratory ability of 5-8F was higher than that of 6-10B. The expression of CD44 and MMP-9 were significantly higher in the CD44-transfected nasopharyngeal cancer cells than in the control groups. Compared with control groups, the migratory ability of CD44-transfected nasopharyngeal cancer cells was significantly increased. CONCLUSION CD44 positively regulates the metastatic ability of nasopharyngeal cancer cells, which is relevant to the process of EMT.

[Objective] To explore the efficacy of disposable flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy (FURL) with flexible vacuum-assisted ureteral access sheath (FV-UAS) in the treatment of 2-3 cm upper urinary tract stones, so as to provide reference for the treatment selection. [Methods] Clinical data of 178 patients with upper urinary tract stones who received FURL or minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (MPCNL) at our hospital during Apr. 2022 and Oct. 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into FV-UAS group (n=90, received FV-UAS combined with diaposable FURL treatment) and MPCNL group (n=88, received MPCNL). The general information, perioperative data, and postoperative stone-free rate (SFR) of the two groups were compared. [Results] All operations were successfully completed. The operation time was significantly longer in the FV-UAS group than in the MPCNL group [(66.5±6.7) min vs. (63.9±7.4) min, P=0.015]. However, the intraoperative hemoglobin reduction [(7.3±3.1)g/L vs.(11.4±5.9)g/L], postoperative hospital stay (P<0.001) [(2.2±0.7)d vs.(5.4±1.3)d], and visual analogue score (VAS) [(2.7±0.9)vs.(5.6±1.1)] were significantly lower in the FV-UAS group than in the MPCNL group (P<0.001). The incidence of persistent gross hematuria was significantly higher in the MPCNL group than in the FV-UAS group (12.5% vs. 3.3%, P=0.023). The FV-UAS group had a similar postoperative immediate (83.3%) and final SFR (95.6%) to those of the MPCNL group (89.8%, 96.6%, P>0.05). [Conclusion] The combination of FURL with FV-UAS for 2-3 cm upper urinary tract stones has a higher SFR and a lower complication rate.Patients experience endurable pain and fast recovery, which is worth promoting and applying in clinical practice.

[Objective] To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of flexible ureteroscope lithotripsy (FURL) combined with flexible vacuum-assisted urethral access sheath (FV-UAS) and traditional UAS in the treatment of 1-2 cm lower renal calyceal stones, so as to provide reference for clinical practice. [Methods] Clinical data of 157 patients with 1-2 cm lower renal calyceal stones treated with FURL during Mar.2021 and Oct.2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 80 treated with traditional UAS, and 77 with FV-UAS.General and clinical information of the two groups were compared. [Results] The immediate stone-free rate (SFR) (84.4% vs.67.5%, P=0.013) and final SFR (88.3% vs. 75.0%, P=0.032) of the FV-UAS group were significantly higher than those of the traditional UAS group, with significant difference.The incidence of postoperative complications such as fever, renal colic, and perirenal hematoma was significantly higher in the traditional UAS group than in the FV-UAS group (15.0% vs.5.2%, P=0.042). After treatment with anti-infective and analgesic drugs, both groups were improved, and no severe sepsis or septic shock occurred after surgery.The hospitalization expenses of the FV-UAS group were significantly lower than those of the traditional UAS group [ (18 341±1519)yuan vs.(19 152±1826)yuan, P=0.003]. [Conclusion] Compared to the traditional UAS, the combination of FURL and FV-UAS for the 1-2 cm lower renal calyceal stones has a high SFR and low incidence of complications.Patients experience less pain, recover faster and spend less.It's a new treatment option for inferior calyceal calculi.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate treatment modalities and prognosis differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) with tracheal invasion.

METHODSClinical data were reviewed and analyzed in 50 patients treated for DTC with tracheal invasion between January 1990 and June 1998. The different surgical modalities were applied according to the extent of tracheal invasion: shave excision (20 cases), tracheal sleeve resection or tracheal partial resection (23 cases), total laryngectomy or laryngeal closure surgery (7 cases). Thirty-eight cases received postoperative (131)I therapy. Survival rate was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier analysis.

RESULTSThe 5-, 10- and 15-year survival rates of all the cases were 90.0%, 74.0% and 56.0%, respectively. The 5-, 10- and 15-year survival rates were 94.7%, 81.6% and 65.8% respectively in 38 cases with postoperative (131)I therapy and were 75.0%, 50.0% and 25.0% respectively in 12 cases without postoperative (131)I therapy, with statistically significant differences in 5-, 10- or 15-year survival rates between the patients of two groups.

CONCLUSIONSThe tumors can be resected radically by corresponding surgery based on the extent of tracheal invasion. Postoperative (131)I therapy can enhance the survival rate of the patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma involving in trachea.
