Objective To introduce a method for fast establishment of pig models with secondary hypersplenism, and using this model to study the effect of radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Methods Congestive splenomegaly was created by CT- guided percutaneous embolization of splenic vein and its collateral branches in pigs. Then radiofrequency ablation was employed in the models to observe the changes of peripheral blood as well as the spleen changes in its morphology and histopathology. The blood cell count for peripheral venous blood was determined once a week, and the spleen size was measured by CT scanning. Results One week after splenic vein embolization, the counts of peripheral erythrocytes and platelets showed a reduction, which became more obvious in three weeks (P < 0.05). Erythropenia, thrombocytopenia and splenomegaly could last for over six weeks. At the second week after the procedure , pathologically the spleen assumed passive congestion appearance. The thermal energy produced by radiofrequency ablation could cause local splenic coagulation necrosis, splenic vessels occlusion and splenic thrombotic infarction due to diffuse micro-vascular thrombosis. Conclusion To establish an animal model with secondary hypersplenism, the method of CT-guided percutaneous embolism of splenic vein is simple and reliable. The animal models can be used for surgical or interventional researches. Radiofrequency ablation is an effective intervention means.

AIM:To investigate efficacy of ranibizumab combined with laser treatment for patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and macular edema.METHODS: We selected 67 patients (67 eyes) with BRVO and macular edema in our hospital from March 2013 to June 2016, they were randomly divided into observation group (n=31) and control group (n=36).The observation group was treated with ranibizumab combined with laser treatment.The control group was treated with macular grid photocoagulation.We observed best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), centre macular thickness (CMT) and macular leakage of two groups.RESULTS: The BCVA of observation group at 1, 2 and 3mo after treatment were 0.41±0.07, 0.42±0.05 and 0.48±0.05, significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05).The CMT of observation group at 1, 2 and 3mo after treatment were 203.11±59.13μm, 201.41±56.22μm and 204.22±60.13μm, significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05).The blood vessel leakage of observation group at 3mo after treatment was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05).No leakage ratio in the observation group was 71%.There were no postoperative infection, aseptic endophthalmitis and other complications in the two groups.CONCLUSION: Ranibizumab combined with laser treatment in patients with BRVO and macular edema has better curative effect, can improve the visual acuity of patients, eliminate macular edema, and is safe and reliable.

Objective To study the effect and prognosis of multiple channels percutaneous renal ureteral calculi removal in the treatment of patients with complex renal calculi.Methods One hundred and forty-four cases patients with complex renal calculi accepted treatment in Dongda Hospital of Shanxian County from June 2012 to March 2015 for research.According to the random number table method,the patients were divided into the observation group and the control group,72 cases in each group.The single channel type was used in the control group,while multi-channel type operation was use in the observation group.Indicators related to the operation,stones clearance rate,changes in the degree of hydronephrosis,and the major complications after treatment of the two groups were compared.Results The operation time of the observation group was (104.82 ±8.54) min,significantly longer than that of the control group ((90.23 ±7.68) min),but the duration of hospital stay,fistulation tube indwelling time and the residual stone surface area were (6.84±1.25) d,(5.23±2.16) d and (223.16± 113.49) mm2 respectively,significantly less than that of the control group ((8.33±2.13) d,(6.74 ± 2.19) d and (429.54 ± 107.88) mm2 respectively),the differences were statistically significant(P =0.000).The stone removal rate of the observation group was 86.11％ (62/72),significantly higher than that of the control group(72.22％ (52/72)),the difference was statistically significant (P =0.040).There was no significant difference in terms of the total stone clearance rate and the degree of kidney water after treatment between the two groups (P＞0.05).The total complication rate of the observation group was 11.11％(8/72),of the control group was 9.72％ (7/72),and the difference was not statistically significant(P ＞0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of multi-channel operation for complex renal calculi is better,safe and feasible,but should reduce the number of channels as much as possible,so as to reduce the damage to patients effectively.

Objective To investigate the relationship between alexithymia and event-related potential P300 in patients with somatoform disorders.Methods Forty-two patients aged 18 to 65 years fulfilling ICD-10 diagnosis criteria for somatoform disorders were recruited as experiment group.Forty normal healthy persons were selected as control group.The Toronto alexthymia scale-20 (TAS-20) was employed to investigate the alexithymia of the subjects.P300 potentials was employed to investigate the cognitive ability of the subjects.A comparison was made between the patients and the healthy subjects.Results The latencies of N1,P2,N2 and P3 were significantly longer in patients with somatoform disorder than those in the normal controls (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01),the amplitudes of N2 and P3 were significantly lower in the patients (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).The three factors scores and the total score of TAS-20 test in patients with somatoform disorder were significantly lower than those in the normal controls (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).There was significant correlation between the latency and the three factors scores and the total score of TAS-20 as well as between the amplitude of P300 and the three factors scores and the total score of TAS-20:the latencies of N1,P2,N2 and P3 recorded at Pz was positively correlated with the factors scores (r =0.32 ～ 0.48,P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01),and the amplitudes of N1,P2,N2 and P3 recorded at Pz was negatively correlated with theTAS-20 scores (r=-0.31 ～-0.51,P＜0.05 or0.01).Conclusions There existed significant correlation between the alexithymia and cognitive impairment in patients with somatoform disorders.Both alexithymia and event-related potential P300 can be used as a clinical evaluation index for patients with somatoform disorder.

Recent studies have confirmed that both CD40 molecule and its ligand CD40L played important roles in various stages of atherosclerosis.The critical cell component of atherosclerosis- endothelial cells,macrophages,and smooth muscle cells on which there are expressions of CD40 and CD40L.The combination of both induces human vascular endothelial cells expressing various active media,participating in the formation of atherosclerosis.However,blocking the CD40-CD40L pathway can prevent atherosclerosis or prevent the plaques from progressing.CD40L may participate in thrombosis and activation of platelet.The soluble CD40L levels increase persistently in patients with acute cerebral infarction and acute coronary syndrome.Some drugs may down-regulate CD40L level.It has provided a new approach for preventing the occurrence of vascular events.

Objective NKT cells are very important as a kind of non-specific immune cells. Much attention in antitumor significance has been received in the study of its effect on malignant diseases. The aim of this study was to detect the expression of NKT cells and its CD+8 NKT subsets in peripheral blood of esophageal patients and normal person, and to analyze the changes in the expression of NKG2D and NKG2A receptorsand its clinical pathological factors. Methods By flow cytometric analysis, 53 patients with esophageal carcinoma and 39 normal controls were analysed for peripheral blood of NKT cells and CD+8 NKT subsets, and the expression of NKT cells NKG2A and expression of NKG2D receptor. The clinical pathological factors were collected for the comparative analysis. Results Compared with the normal control group, the expression of NKT cells in peripheral blood of esophageal patients increased [(4.32±0.73) %, (5.97±1.29) %] (t =3.562, P <0.01), and the expression level of its surface receptor NKG2D reduced [(17.56±5.92) %, (15.12±1.56) %] (t =3.892, P <0.05), but the express levels of NKG2A [(4.02±1.41) %, (5.99±4.59) %] in creased (r = 4.015, P <0.05), those expression change with the development of the esophageal cancer. Conclusion The increased expression of NKT cells and CD+8 NKT subsets in the peripheral blood of patients with esophageal carcinoma refletcs that the immune feedback of patients' antineoplastic effect is strengthened. The decresed expression of the active receptor NKG2D and the increased expression of the inhibitory receptor NKG2A on NKT cells might be one of mechanisms leading to the reduction of NKT cell activity and immune escape of patients with esophageal carcinoma. The changes of surface receptors of NKT cells may be associated with the development of the esophageal cancer.
