Objective To investigate the effect of sevoflurane on blood pressure in patients with different ages and the optimal concen-tration of sevoflurane. Methods 60 patients underwent selective LC operation with conventional induction and sevoflurane maintenance were divided into three groups:the youth group (34 patients), the middle age group (20 patients) and the older age group (6 patients). The SBP, DBP, MAP, CETsev, number of patients, age of patients before induction and 10 min(T1), 20 min(T2), 30 min (T3), 60 min (T4) after induction were recorded. Results Fluctuate of blood pressure were in the normal range after anesthesia maintenance, and MAP were fluctuated within the range of ± 20% before induction. The age under different CETsev were of no significant difference in each time point (P>0. 05). The age composition ratio in different CETsev were of no significant difference in each time point (P>0. 05). As the time of anesthesia extended, the number of patients under 0% ~1%CETsev decreased from 35 to 11; the number of patients under 1% ~2%CETsev increased from 10 to 20;and the number of patients under 2% ~3%CETsev maintened in 14 approximately. Conclusion The effect of sevoflurane on blood pressure of different ages is approximate. 2% ~3% CETsev is the most optimal concentration during the main-tenance of anesthesia.

BACKGROUND:Removing the posterior ligamentous complexes during posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) may influence motion and load bearing characteristics of the adjacent segments,contributing to the postoperative instability at the adjacent segment,which is one of the important factors for adjacent segment degeneration.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the PLIF plus screw implantation preserving posterior ligamentous complexes under microscope.METHODS:Thirty-six patients with single-level lumbar degenerative disease were enrolled,which were allotted to experimental (n=17) and control (n=1 9) groups,followed by treated with PLIF plus screw implantation preserving posterior ligamentous complexes,and traditional PLIF plus screw implnatation,respectively.The Visual Analogue Scale scores and Oswestry Dysfunction Index at baseline and postoperative 3 months were assessed.The adjacent segment degeneration was observed through radiology during follow-up.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The Visual Analogue Scale and Oswestry Dysfunction Index scores in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P ＜ 0.01),and the postoperative scores in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.01).The adjacent segment degeneration occurred in two cases in the experimental group and 8 cases in the control group during follow-up.Radiology revealed that the internal fixative was stable,none of screw loosening,rupture or pullout.These results suggest that PLIF plus screw implantation with posterior ligamentous complexes can effectively relieve the pain and dysfunction in the lumbar degenerative patients,and reduce the incidence of adjacent segment degeneration.

AIMTo explore the relationship between proliferation and hypertrophy of vascular smooth muscle cells and PDGF-AA and PDGFR-alpha expression in SHRs and the role of [Ca2+]i in it.

METHODSExpress difference of PDGF-AA, PDGFR-alpha, PDGFR-beta in SHR/WKY-VSMC was observed by Western blot. The effect of Ca2+ inhibitor (nimodipine) on proliferation, hypertrophy and free Ca2+ concentration of SHR-VSMC induced by PDGF-AA was observed by Western blot, [3H] incorporation and fluorescent digital image technique.

RESULTSPDGF-AA and PDGFR-alpha expression was markedly increased in SHR-VSMC than in WKY-VSMC, but PDGFR-beta was not different in SHR and WKY-VSMC. PDGF-AA-stimulated PCNA expression, [3H] incorporation and [Ca2+]i increasing were observed in SHR-VSMC. Dose-dependent nimodipine-inhibited PCNA expression, [3H] incorporation and [Ca2+]i increasing induced by PDGF-AA also were observed in SHR-VSMC.

CONCLUSIONSSpontaneously expression increasing of PDGF-AA and PDGFR-alpha in spontaneously hypertension rats (SHRs) may be one of the important factors on vascular reactivity and vascular modeling mediated through proliferation and hypertrophy in SHR-VSMC, and [Ca2+]i play an important role in this process.

OBJECTIVETo study the prevalence of P53 protein expression and p53 gene mutation in laryngeal carcinoma.

METHODSUsing immunohistochemistry P53 expression was detected in 31 patients with laryngeal carcinoma. In 11 P53 negative patients,microdissection-PCR-HA technique was used to determine mutation in p53 exon 5, 6, 7, 8.

RESULTSAmong the 31 patients tested with immunostaining, the overall average positive rate was 64.5%. Positive rates for T3 and T4 tumors were 86.7% vs 43.8% in T1 and T2 tumors.The positive rate was 91.7% in those with cervical node metastasis compared with 47.4% in those without lymph node metastasis. The positive P53 immunostaining was more frequently found in poor differentiated carcinoma (87.5%) and moderate-differentiated carcinoma (66.7%),than in well differentiated carcinoma (45.5%). The abnormal exon 5 or 7 of p53 gene were detected in 2 out of 11 cases, in which P53 was negative.

CONCLUSIONP53 gene mutation is related with TNM grading and cervical lymph node metastasis in laryngeal carcinoma. P53 mutation tents to be correlated to pathologic grading.

Objective To investigate the clinical outcomes derived from Ningmitai combined with tamsulosin to prevent double-J stent syndrome after laser lithotripsy with ureteroscope. Methods 117 patients underwent laser lithotripsy with ureteroscope and then placed a double-J stent for draining were collected from January 2010 to January 2013. Patients with double-J stent placement were divided into four groups determined by dosage regimen. Tamsulosin group (30 cases) was treated with tamsulosin (0.4 mg once daily) lonely, Ningmitai group (29 cases) was treated with Ningmitai (1.52 g, trice time a day) lonely, tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group (30 cases) was treated with tamsulosin and Ningmitai at the same time, operation control group (28 cases) was neither tamsulosin nor Ningmitai. The catheter was removed on the 3rd day post-lithotripsy and then remained double-J stent for 1 month. The scores of urinary tract, pain and the incidence of gross hematuria were assessed. Results The significant differences in the improvement of symptom score (χ2=22.038, P=0.000), pain score (χ2=9.876, P=0.020) and hematuria (χ2=8.000, P=0.046) were found among tamsulosin group, Ningmitai group, and tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group. The number of patients with symptomless, slight symptom in tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group were higher than those of tamsulosin group, Ningmitai group, operation control group (symptomeless:14 vs. 6, 3 and 2 cases;slight symptom:13 vs. 9, 5, 4 cases). The number of patients with>Ⅱpain score (7 vs. 9, 14, 17 cases) and incidence of hematuriag [26.6%(8/30) vs. 56.7%(17/30), 58.6% (17/29), 53.6% (15/28)] were lower in tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group than those of tamsulosin group, Ningmitai group, operation control group. The drug combination of Ningmitai with tamsulosin had the synergism to relived symptom and pain, and showed the more obviousthan lonely use. Conclusion The drug combination of Ningmitai with tamsulosin can be used in clinic for prophylactic purpose to prevent double-J syndrome.

Background and purpose: Gene chip is a nucleic acid sequence analysis method which is based on hybridization. It is a high-through put assay which can widely detect the level of gene expression in different tissues and cell types. This study aimed to compare and bioinformatically analyze differentially expressed genes between higher malignant degree of prostate cancer tissues and prostate inflammation tissues. Methods: The total RNAs were isolated from tissues of prostate cancer and prostate inflammation by TRIzol method and then purified, reversely tran-scribed to cDNA with incorporating biotin labeling probe, hybridized with Affymetrix Human U133 Plus 2.0 (covering 47000 transcripts,representing 38500 distinct genes). Picture signals of fluorescence in gene array were scanned and differential expression of gene in two tissues were compared by Command Console Software 4.0. These differential expressed genes were analyzed by bioinformatics methods finally. Results: According to the fold change ≥2, P<0.05, 1819 differential expression genes including 1025 up-regulated genes and 794 down-regulated genes were discovered. GO enrichment analysis displayed that these differentially expressed genes were mainly involved in cell cycle, cell metabolism, etc. KEGG pathway analysis found that these genes were mainly involved in some metabolism pathways including purine nucleotide metabolism. The interactions between the proteins encoded by these genes were analyzed by STING. Twenty key nodes genes including TPX2, ANLN, NUSAP1, MELK, DLGAP5, KIF11, TOP2A, RRM2 were dis-covered. Then this study revealed CEP55 and ANLN might be related to the occurrence and metastasis of prostate cancer by looking through literature. Conclusion: During the development of prostate cancer, the activation of genes related to cell cycle and cell migration, the abnormalities of genes related to metabolism and the inhibition of genes related to cell adhesion play critical roles in the development of prostate cancer. CEP55 and ANLN were related to the occurrence and prognosis of prostate cancer by systematic analysis which provided a valuable clue for the next experiment.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the treatment for the proximal femur malignant bone tumor by conducting intercalary diaphyseal endoprosthetic reconstruction.Methods Form June 2011 to July 2014,7 patients who had proximal femur malignant bone tumor were treated with intercalary diaphyseal endoprosthetic reconstruction.There were 3 males and 4 females,61.8 years old on the average (ranging from 28 to 76 years).The tumors involved:4 case of the limbs primary malignant tumor,1 case of osteosarcoma,1 case of juxtacortical osteosarcoma,1 case of malignant lymphoma with pathological fracture,and 1 case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma with pathological fracture,as well as 3 cases of the Metastatic breast cancer of the proximal femur.All patients were evaluated by plain radiography,CT and MRI before operation.After these 7 patients were examined with MRI and the level of osteotomy was determined,prosthesis fitting is ready.The exposures of all the tumors were via the femur lateralis surgical approach.According to the general principles of tumor surgery,expose the tumor segment and soft tissue tumors.The segment of involved bone was then removed,with a surrounding cuff of normal tissue overlying the tumor.The level of osteotomy was determined as the result of preoperative imaging measurement.The proximal and distal femur intramedullary canals are reamed.The prosthesis is assembled and installed after the cement used.Results The duration of surgery was from 45 min to 120 min (90 min on average).The blood loss was from 200 ml to 800 ml (400 ml on average).All patients were followed-up for 6 months to 2 years (14 months on average).1 case with osteosarcoma died due to pulmonary metastases 18 months after surgery.The remaining 3 cases with the primary malignant bone tumors did not recur or transfer during the follow-up period.1 case with the metastases was comprehensive treated in another hospital,and survival with tumors.The remaining 2 cases with the metastases did not recur or transfer during the follow-up period.Conclusion The clinical results demonstrated that the intercalary diaphyseal endoprosthetic reconstruction was an ideal treatment for the proximal femur malignant bone tumor.
