Objective To investigate the effect of ondansetron on the development of neuropathic pain in rats following chronic constriction injury (CCI) on sciatic nerve. Methods This research consisted of 3 parts. ①A single bolus of ondansetron was given intraperitoneally 2 h before nerve injury; ②A single bolus of ondansetron was given intraperitoneally on the 7th day after nerve injury; ③Continuous administration of ondansetron was given daily for 35 d; In each part, male SD rats were randomly divided into ondansetron group (0.5, 2, 8 mg/kg), saline group and sham operated group. The paw withdrawal response to thermal stimulation was tested throughout the 35 d following nerve injury. Results Ondansetron administration before nerve injury had no effect on thermal pain threshold in rats of experimental neuropathic pain. ondansetron administration on the 7th day after nerve injury attenuated the descending of thermal pain threshold but did not alter its descending trend in subsequent time period. Daily administration of ondansetron for 35 d attenuated and further delayed the descending of thermal pain threshold significantly in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion Continuous administration of ondansetron can prevent or at least delay the descending of thermal pain threshold of rats with experimental neuropathic pain after constriction injury.

Background and purpose: Collecting duct carcinomas of the kidney are a rare malignant tumor accounting for<1%of renal malignancies. It is associated with aggressive nature and more than 50%of patients have metastatic disease at the time of initial diagnosis. The diagnosis of collecting duct carcinoma is often dififcult and to some extent is one of exclusion. This study aimed to study the clinicopathologic features of collecting duct carcinoma of the kidney. Methods:We retrieved the data of ifve cases of collecting duct carcinomas of the kidney from pathology ifles, and determined the expressions of CK19, CAM5.2, CK7, Vimentin, CD10, P63 and PaX-8 by pathohistological observation and immunohistochemical examination. Results: The most common symptoms were blood urine, bellyache and abdomen mass. The tumor originated from the medulla of the kidney central zone. Histologically, the tumors demonstrated irregular tubular or papillary architecture with the stroma of inflammatory cells and fibrous tissue proliferation. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for CK19(5/5), CAM5.2(5/5), PaX-8(5/5), Vimentin(2/5), CK7(1/5), and negative for P63, CD10. Conclusion: The correct diagnosis in collecting duct carcinomas of the kidney is based on characteristic morphological features and immunophenotype labeling.

Objective:Since 1996,the esophageal stent of the curved type has been applied clinically by authors in order to solve the defects which the straight tube like stent could not coincide with the shape of the esophageal of the patient.Methods:The curved type stent made of "Z" type stainless steel was implanted after fixing it direction along the selected esophagus.Results:The application of the esophageal stent of the curved type in 29 cases indicated that the stents were coincidence with the folded esophagus,could decreases the pain and discomforts of the patients,and improved the stability of the stents.Conclusion:The esophageal stent of the curved type applied to the folded esophagus is much more effective clinically than the straight tube like type used before.

Background and purpose: Solid papillary carcinoma (SPC) is an uncommon histological pattern accounting for <1% of breast carcinomas. It is a distinctive form of papillary carcinoma characterized by closely apposed expansile, cellar nodules. The present study aimed to investigate the clinicopathologic features, immunophenotype and prognosis of SPC of breast. Methods:We retrieved the data of 32 cases of SPC of the breast from pathology files, and determined the expressions of ER, PR, C-erbB-2, p63, Calponin, CK5/6, Ki-67, Syn and CgA by pathohistological observation and immunohistochemical examination. Results:All the patients were females with a mean age of 67.3 years. The clinical features were a palpable mass or bloody nipple discharge. The tumor was observed as a whitish-grey or yellowish-brown, lfeshy ifrm or soft, nodular circumscribed mass on gross examination. Microscopy showed solid and papillary area inside the capsule wall and that fine delicate fibrovascular septa were discovered amid the solid proliferation. The tumor cells were oval, polygonal, spindled or signet ring-like with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and contained mildly to moderately pleomorphic nuclei. Immunohistochemically, all tumor cells were strongly positive for ER and PR (++-+++), negative for C-erbB-2 and all cases were negative for CK5/6, p63 and Calponin in the cellular nodules. The positive expression rates of Syn and CgA were 68.8%and 78.2%, respectively. The average positive rate of Ki-67 in tumor cells was 7.5%(2%-20%). Twenty-seven patients were available for follow-up examination from 6 to 84 months and 25 patients were alive and disease free. One patient had tumor recurrence, and was alive after reoperation. Another patient died of the tumor metastasis. Conclusion:SPC is predominantly found in elderly females with distinctive pathological features and immunophenotype. SPC often carries an indolent clinical behavior, and even if accompanied by inifltration, very rare cases have recurrence and metastasis after resection, so its prognosis is better.

Objective To investigate the changes of average body weight gain and serum biochemical indexes of C57BL/6J mice (B6 mouse) and their offspings after frozen-thawed embryo transfer of B6 mice.Methods The mice were divided into three groups in this study.In the experimental group I (E-I,30 males and 20 females),2-cell embryos after in-vitro fertilization were collected,and cryopreserved by EFS method,then obtained the offsprings after transplantation of the recovered embryos to oviduct of recipient mice (ICR mouse).In the experimental group II (E-II,26 males and 17 females),when the mice from E-I grew to maturity,the offsprings were obtained from natural mating of mice from E-I.In the control group (20 males and 20 females),the offsprings came from conventional feeding and natural mating.The three groups of mice were raised to 16 weeks old,weighing the body weight at a regular time intervals,and the serum biochemical indexes were obtained from 16-week-old mice.Then the changes of average body weight and serum biochemical indexes of the mice were analyzed.Results The average body weight of E-I mice was significantly higher than that of control group at each week-age (P<0.01).The average body weight of E-II female mice was significantly higher than that of the control group in 12-16-week old mice (P<0.01),but the average body weight of E-II male mice showed no significant differences compared with the control group except for few weeks.The serum biochemical indexes of E-I and E-II mice were changed in all items except for AST,TP and Ca.Conclusions There are some effects on the average body weight gain and serum biochemical indexes of C57BL/6J mice and their offspings after frozen-thawed embryo transfer.

Objective To evaluate the impact of cerebrospinal fluid drain(CSFD) on the incidence of acute spinal cord injury(SCI) following extensive TAAA repair.Methods From February 2009 to July 2016,153 patients underwent extensive TAAA repairs with a consistent strategy of normal thermia,non-circulatory bypass,sequential aortic cross clamping,aortic-lilac bypass,and intercostal artery reconstruction.The repairs were performed with preoperative CSFD (n =78) or without CSFD (n =75).In the former group,CSFD was inserted after the patient has been anaesthetized and continued for 72 hours after surgery.The target CSF pressure was 10 mmHg or less.Results The mean age of patients was (38 ± 10) years and 108 (70.6%) were male.There were 87 (53.8%) patients with previous aortic surgeries and 33 (22%) with Marfan syndrome.The two groups had similar risk factors for paraplegia.Aortic clamp time,operation time and number of reattached intercostal arteries were similar in both groups.In-hospital mortality rates were 1.3% (one patient) and 6.7% (five patients) for CSFD and the group without CSFD,respectively (P =0.086).Ten patients (13.3 %) in the group without CSFD had paraplegia develop.In contrast,only two patients in the CSFD group(2.6%) had postoperative paraplegia(P =0.013).Stepwise logistic regression analysis identified CSFD had spinal cord protection,P =0.026;OR =0.171;95% CI:0.036-0.809).No patients occurred CSF catheter related complications.Conclusion This randomized clinical trial showed that preoperative CSFD placement could be an effective strategy in preventing SCI following extensive aortic aneurysm repair.Care should be taken to prevent complications related to overdrainage.
