Objective To compare the clinical efficiency between laparoscopic and open complete mesocolic excision for right-sided colon cancer.Methods Between January 2011 and August 2012,a total of 134 patients with right-sided colon cancer who underwent CME at Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command were divided into laparoscopic (71) and open (63) groups.The intraoperative parameters,pathology,postoperative course and short-term outcomes were compared between groups.The chi-test and the student t test were used for statistics.Result There were no significant differences in the length of distal (P=0.427) and proximal margin (P=0.515),tumor diameter (P =0.440) and number of lymph nodes dissected (P =0.377).Postoperatively patients were followed for up to 12 months,no significant differences were found in local regional recurrence rates (4.2％ vs 1.6％) (P =0.622) and distal metastasis rates (5.6％ vs 3.2％) (P =0.684) between the two groups.The mean operative time (P =0.134) and postoperative complication rate (P =0.977) were similar.The mean intraoperative blood loss was less (P =0.000),bowel flatus passed earlier (P =0.000) and hospital stay shorter (P =0.000) in laparoscopic than that in open group.Conclusions Laparoscopic CME has the same oncologic clearance effects and short-term follow-up result compared with open CME for right-sided colon cancer,and laparoscopic CME is minimally invasive,less bleeding,less pain and quick recovery.

Objective To study clinical application and complication of heavy silicon oil (Densiron68) in the treatment of traumat- ic proliferative vitreoretinopathy.Design Non-comparatives,retrospective case series.Participants Twenty patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy resulting from ocular trauma were recruited,whose retinal detachment arising from inferior or posterior retinal breaks. Methods Heavy silicon oil was applied to patients during vitrectomy.Silicone oil or gas was applied to patients with redetachment after heavy silicon oil was removed.Main Outcome Measures The rate of retinal attachment,vision,intraocular pressure,inflammatory re- action of anterior segment and silicone oil emulsification period.Results The rate of retinal attachment with one operation using heavy silicon oil was 50%(10/20 eyes)and 15%(3/20 eyes)with further surgery.The average follow-up time was 3.90?1.41 months.At the end of the follow-up,all tamponade agents were removed in 50% patients.Patients' logMAR vision after the surgery was 2.19?0.86,which was better than before the surgery (2.63?1.00) (P=0.037).There was little evidence of high intraocular pressure,excessive inflammatory reaction of anterior segment and cornea endothelial cell damage,but cataract became more serious without exception.Emulsification rate was 100% and the average emulsification period was 2.18?0.87 months.Conclusions Heavy silicon oil tamponade in vitreoretinal surgery for traumatic proliferative vitreoretinopathy has good efficacy and relatively few complications.However,its emulsification period is relatively short,which may constraint its application to a certain extent.

Objective:To explore the correlation between the characteristics of contrast-enhanced sonography of intraoperative glioblastoma multiform (GBM) and molecular markers of isocitrate dehydrogenase-1(IDH1).Methods:A retrospective analysis were performed in 30 patients who underwent neurosurgery and pathologically confirmed to be GBM at Beijing Tiantan Hospital from May 2018 to April 2019. All neurosurgical glioblastoma patients after craniotomy underwent conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) guided navigation. The characteristics of the ultrasound imaging (whether the tumor involves the structure of the corpus callosum, the clarity of the tumor boundary after enhanced ultrasound and whether the tumor has necrotic areas with enhanced ultrasound images) were analyzed. The ratio between tumor necrosis area and whole tumor area (N/W) was measured, and the correlation with IDH1 gene expression was analyzed.Results:There were statistical differences in clarity of tumor boundary after CEUS and tumor necrosis after CEUS between positive IDH1 and negative IDH1 groups(all P<0.05). The positive expression of IDH1 was negatively correlated with the N/W area of the contrast-enhanced ultrasound mode( r=-0.756, P<0.05), suggesting that the expression level of IDH1 gene was negatively correlated with the area of tumor necrosis. Conclusions:Ultrasound contrast agent examination can more accurately distinguish the active proliferation area, hemorrhagic necrosis area and peripheral edema area of glioblastoma. Accurately identifying the extent of tumor necrosis area through ultrasound contrast agent examination can predict expression of IDH1.

Phospholipase D(PLD) is ubiquitous in bacteria,fungi,and mammal.In pathogenic microorganisms,PLD can be pathogenic determinant and play a role in spore generation.In mammalian cells,PLD functions in several signal transduction pathways,such as membrane transportation,mitosis regulation,and actin cytoskeleton regulation.In the process of pathogens invasion host cells,both of the pathogen and host cells’ PLD will be activated and a series of cascade reaction will be generated.During this process,pathogen’s PLD can regulate the polymerization and reorganization of its own actin filaments and induce the polymerization or reorganization of the host cell actin filaments near the foci,thus to promote the phagocytosis of the pathogen by host cell.Investigating the role of PLD activation in the infection will be significance for further understanding the molecular mechanism of pathogen-host cell interaction.

RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a newly-developed method in transcriptome research, it can afford more accurate transcription information and be more quickly by using Next-generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. RNA-Seq has been widely used in various biological fields. Genuine traditional Chinese medicines (TCM), with good quality and therapeutic effect, were always praised highly and used by famous physicians. The geo-herbalism formation of TCM is based on the product of the gene expression at specific space and time. So it has been a research hotspot to analyze the mechanism of biosynthesis through RNA-Seq in the study on the secondary metabolism of medicinal plant. This article mainly illustrates the RNA-Seq and its advantages, it also discusses the potential application in genuine TCM, and it can provide useful information for other researchers.

Objective The results of Aortic valve replacement (AVR). Combined with ascending aortic replacement(group A) or aortoplasty (group B) in patients with aortic valve disease and ascending aortic dilatation were analysed to assess the clinical outcomes and respective indications. Methods Among the two groups, the age, gender, NYHA class, types of aortic valve lesions and left ventricular ejection fraction were not different statically. The ascending aortic diameters in group A[(50.41 ±3.71) mm] and group B [(48.29±2.18) mm] were not statically different. Ascending aortic replacement was performed in Group A. A Dacron tube(diameter 28 ～ 30mm) was routinely wrapped around the ascending aorta after aortoplasty in group B. Results There was 1 postoperative death in group B, blood transfusion volume and postoperative complications were not stasticaly different in the two groups. Cardiopulmonary bypass time [(110.52 ± 27.51) min] and aortic across clumping time [(71.70 ± 17.13)min] in group A were significantly longer than that of group B [(97.31 ± 19.46) min,P=0. 004; (57.13 ±19.46) min, respectively. P=0.025]. Conclusion Aortic valve disease, especially bicuspid valve disease often combines with ascending aortic dilatation or aneurysm. In younger patients, ascending aorta should be actively treated surgically when the diameter is equal or more than 40mm. Aortoplasty with external reinforcement of a Dacron tube is simpler and safer than aortic replacement in patient without aortic atherosclerosis or ulceration, and large aneurysm.

Objective To summary the methods and results of first and second operations on patients with aortic valve disease and non-specific aortitis.Methods The total 34 patients including 23 cases with aortitis and 11 cases with Behcet disease were studied from Jan 2000 to Dec 2010.The first operation was Bentall procedure in 18 cases and AVR in 16 cases.Fourteen of 16 cases who had AVR developed severe paravalvular leakage,and undewent the second operation including 10 aortic root replacement (8 valve-conduit and 2 homograft) and 4 non-anatomic AVR.Results Eighteen patients who had first operation of Bentall procedure all survive without aortic pseudoaneurysm after the follow-up of 6 months to 11 years.Fourteen redo cases all survive except for one case died of repture of aortic pseudoaneurysm 1.2 years postoperatively.Conclusion Preoperative diagnosis in these patients is very difficulty.The first operation of root replacement is of choice.The second operation is very difficulty to handle,root replacement can achieve satisfactory results.Non-anatomic AVR is easy to perform,and good hemo stasis intraoperatively,and is a satisfied alternative method with good results.
