Results: The serum level of E2 was significantly lower in menopausal women with glossdynia than that in control group( P

ObjectiveTo study possible mechanism through investigating the pathological and ultrastructural characters of secondary injury to perihematoma in intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) rats.MethodsSprague Dawley male rats were subjected to ICH models. They were randomly divided into test group and control group. The rats in the test group were divided into 7 subgroups at 1h,3h,12h,24h,48h,72h and 7d after ICH; while those in control group were divided into 3 subgroups at 3h,24h,72h after saline injection. Each subgroup contained 5 rats. 2 rats from each group were stained by 2% triphenyltetrazolium chloride(TTC) to observe the pathological change.3 rats were picked up from each group to do optical microscope and electric microscope investigation on perihematoma tissue and ipsilateral cortex.ResultsHematoma tissue was demonstrated as black brown by TTC staining, no white infarcted area was detected around hematoma. In addition, there was a transitional zone between hematoma and normal tissue under microscopy; the involved tissue looked loose with varied edematous cells. Astrocytes appeared swollen and neural cells looked degenerated and necrosis. Meanwhile, capillary hyperplasia around hematoma with foot plate swollen were detected, no remarkable neural cells change was observed. 24 h after blood injection, astrocytes started to swell, part of them became degenerated and necrosis. Neural cells appeared mild degenerated and blood brain barrier were destroyed. 72 h after ICH, astrocytes showed highly swollen with neural cells degenerated.ConclusionSecondary injury to perihematoma has been identified and the pathological and ultrastructural changes have been observed.

Objective:To study the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), and thrombospondin (TSP) in oral submucous fibrosis(OSF), and to determine the relationship between VEGF and TSP, so as to investigate their roles in the pathogenesis of OSF. Methods:30 patients with OSF, including early (10 cases), middle (10 cases), late stage (10 cases) were studied. 5 healthy volunteers were chosen as control group. Buccal mucosa biopsies were taken in all samples. Expressions of VEGF and TSP were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results:The expression of VEGF increased in early stage compared with normal oral mucous, and decreased in middle and late stage. The expression of VEGF in early stage had statistical difference compared with control group, middle stage and late stage respectively(P<0.05).The expression of TSP upregulated in early and middle, and downregulated in late stage. There were no statistical significant differences among groups(P>0.05). The expressions of VEGF and TSP had negative correlation(r=-0.620,P<0.05). Conclusions: The abnormal expressions of VEGF and TSP may be a pathogenesis factor of OSF.

ObjectiveTo examined how autoregulation is affected by vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) by using transcranial Doppler. MethodsThe moving correlation coefficient between slow changes of arterial blood pressure and mean or systolic flow velocity (FV), termed Mx and Sx, respectively, was used to characterize cerebral autoregulation. Vasospasm was declared when the mean FV increased to more than 120 cm/s and the Lindegaard ratio was more than 3. This occurred in 15 of 32 SAH patients.On the basis of the bilateral transcranial Doppler recordings of the middle cerebral artery in vasospastic patients, Mx and Sx were calculated for baseline and vasospasm. ResultsMx increased during vasospasm (0.46±0.32) and was significantly higher (P=0.03) than at baseline (0.21±0.24) Sx was also increased (0.22±0.26 vs 0.05±0.21,P=0.03). Mx correlated with mean FV (P=0.577, P=0.006) and the Lindegaard ratio (r=0.672,P<0.01).Mx(P=0.006) and Sx (P=0.044) were higher on the vasospastic side compared with the contralateral side.ConclusionThe increased Mx and Sx during cerebral vasospasm demonstrate impaired cerebral autoregulation. Mx and Sx provide additional information on changes in autoregulation in SAH patients.

Objective To investigate survival for primary duodenal carcinoma patients after radical resection and identify risk factors associated with overall survival.Methods Data of 51 patients with primary duodenal carcinomas who underwent radical resection between December 2003 and December 2012 at Beijing Cancer Hospital were included.Survival analysis was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method,univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify variables associated with survival after resection by COX regression model.Results The median overall survival time was 67 months,and the median disease-free time was 40 months,1-,2-and 3-year overall survival rates were 88％,84％ and 67％,respectively.Multivariate analysis revealed that regional lymph-node positive (P =0.032) and CA199 ＞ 37 U/ml (P =0.037) were independent risk factors of patients' overall survival.Conclusions Radical resection improves survival for primary duodenal carcinoma patients.Regional lymph-node positive and CA199 ＞37 U/ml were the most important risk factors of patients'overall survival.

Objective Bisegmentectomy Ⅶ-Ⅷ can be an alternative option for the tumor localized in segments Ⅶ and Ⅷ and infiltrating the main trunk of RHV instead of a right hemihepatectomy.This study was to evaluate the safety and practicability of the removal of segments Ⅶ and Ⅷ of the liver with the resection of the main trunk of RHV without vascular reconstruction.Method 13 consecutive patients underwent bisegmentectomy Ⅶ-Ⅷ with the resection of the RHV between Nov.2006 and Dec.2012 at Beijing Cancer Hospital 1st Department.of HPB Surgery.Results Bisegmentectomy Ⅶ-Ⅷ with the resection of the RHV was performed in all 13 patients successfully without the distal vein reconstruction.The duration of the operations was 90-215 min.Mean blood loss was estimated to be 200 ml (100-700 ml).Indications for a bisegmentectomy Ⅶ-Ⅷ included hepatocellular carcinoma in 6 cases,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in one,liver metastasis in 4 and hepatic hemangioma in 2 as confirmed pathologically.All patients recovered without severe complications.The atrophy of segment Ⅵ due to the venous drainage obstacle was observed in 3 patients without the dysfunction of liver postoperatively.Conclusions It is safe and practicable to perform Ⅶ and Ⅷ bisegmentectomy with resection of the right hepatic vein without vascular reconstruction for liver tumors.

Objective To study the survival outcome and the survival-related factors in patients who received liver resection for multiple (≥4) liver metastases of colorectal cancer.Method The results for patients who received partial hepatectomy for four or more colorectal hepatic metastases carried out in the 1 st Department of HPB Surgery,Peking University Cancer Hospital were studied retrospectively.Results Between 2002 and 2013,of 239 patients,60 patients with four or more colorectal hepatic metastases received partial hepatectomy.The median overall survival was 35.2 months and the 5-year survival was 28.2％ (17/60).There were two actuarial 5-year survivors.The median disease-free survival was 6.9 months,with 1 actuarial disease-free survivor at 5 years.There were no perioperative deaths,and the perioperative morbidity was 36.7％ (22/60).Major (hemi-liver or more) liver resection and 7 or more metastases were independently associated with poor survival outcome.Perineural Invasion (T4) of the primary tumor,size of the largest metastasis (≥4 cm),neoadjuvant chemotherapy,and resection of recurrent disease were also associated with survival outcome.Conclusions Long-term survival could be achieved after resection of multiple colorectal liver metastases.Minor resection for multiple colorectal metastases was superior in survival compared with major resection.Additional survival advantage could be achieved by resection of recurrent disease.

Objective To summarize the epidemiological feature of plague cases oceuwed in China.Methods The epidemiological and clinical data from 1981 to 2006 year in China were analyzed with descriptive study method.Result Nine hundred and seveneteen human plague cases were diagnosed in 9 provinces(regions) from 1981 to 2006 years,105 cases died,the mortality rate being 11.45%,and they distributed in 69 counties (cities or banners).In Qinghai Province 108 cases were diagnosed,the mortality rate was 46.30%(50/108),the cases distributed in 17 counties(cities);137 cans in Guizhou,distributing in 2 counties(cities);517 cases in Yunnan,distributing in 26 counties(cities).Plague cases peaked separately in 1983,1990,1996 and 2000 years,they were 25,75,98 and 254 separately.The principal spreading ways were breathing flying particles,touching,skinning and eating marmot in Qinghai;750 cases were of bubonic plague,among whom 4 cases in Tibet died,the fatality rate was 0.53(4/750);121 cases were of pneumonic prague,among whom 65 cases died,was accounting for 53.72%(65/121);31 cases were of septieaemic plague,and 30 cases died(one cases was cured in Inner Mongolia),accounting for 96.77%(30/31).Others were brain plague,intestinal plague,tonsil plague and plague cellulites,which were cured.Conclusion From 1990,human plague epidemical scope and intensity is enlarging continuously compared with 1980-1990 and there is a trend of going up gradually in China.

Objective To analyze the clinical data of patients with post-hepatectomy haemorrhage (PHH) and to discuss the treatment strategies.Method The clinicopathologic data of patients with PHH between 2005-2014 in the HPB Surgery Ward I,Peking University Cancer Hospital,were studied retrospectively.Results In the study period of 10 years,25 of 1 548 patients who underwent hepatectomy suffered from PHH,and 76％ (19/25) of these patients had underlying liver diseases.The common surgical operations followed by PHH were right hemihepatectomy (11/25),and segment Ⅶ/Ⅷ resection (8/25).The median time for PHH to be diagnosed was 27 h,and the median time from diagnosis of postoperative bleeding to reoperation or intervention was 3.5 h.Using the classification of PHH by the International Study Group of Liver Surgery (ISGLS),there were 1 patient in grade A,16 patients in grade B,and 8 patients in grade C.The perioperative mortality of PHH was 8％ (2/25).The most common bleeding site was from the hepatic artery.Conclusions PHH is a serious complication after liver resection,with low occurrence but high mortality.Most patients with PHH can be managed by conservative treatment.Emergency reoperation is required when instability in vital signs appears.Careful evaluation before operation,strict hemostasis during operation,and close monitoring after operation can effectively reduce the incidence and mortality of PHH.
