Objective To explore the temporal expressions of TIMP-1 and their relationship with injury time during electric injuris of hearts of rats.Methods Immunohistorichemical and image-analysis techniques were employed in 220V-electric injury of hearts during different time.ResultsWeak expression of TIMP-1 are deteced at 0.5h after electric injury,which increased subsequently,and peaked at 24~72h post-injury.Then decreased to pre-injury level at 12d.Conclusion The time-dependent expression of TIMP-1 during electric injury may be used for the estimation of injury time.

AIM: This study aimed at investigating the effects and mechanism of total alkaloids from Rhizoma Coptidis (TA) on ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury in rats. METHODS: The experimental gastric damages were established by intragastric ethanol, and the protective effects of TA were evaluated by calculating lesion indices contents and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity from rat gastric mucosa were measured to explore the interrelation between therapeutic effects of TA and these factors. The expressions of neuronal nitrogen monoxide synthase (nNOS), endothelial NOS (eNOS), and inducible NOS (iNOS)from ethanol-damaged gastric mucosa in rats were analysised using immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: TA significantly inhibited the gastric injury induced by ethanol ,in dose-dependent manner,and the effect of TA was superior to that of Berberine (Ber). TA obviously antric mucosa. TA significantly suppressed ethanol-induced decreasing nNOS and eNOS expression and elevation of iNOS expression in rat gastric mucosa. CONCLUSION: Rhizoma Coptidis is a potent candidate in therapeutic drugs of human alcohol-induced gastric injury. Its anti-injury effects involve in Ber and other ingredients of TA. The protective mechanisms of TA involve in inhibiting generation of oxygen-derived free radical, accelerating scavenging of free radicals, relieving lipid peroxidation, and maintaining NO content in normal level by inhibiting decreasing of nNOS and eNOS expression and elevation of iNOS expression.

Objective To explore the management strategy of hepatic trauma. Methods From January 1997 to January 2008, a retrospective study was performed on 112 cases of hepatic trauma. Base on the classification of AAST,non-operative treatment was used in 40 hemodynamic steady patients (grade Ⅰto Ⅱ), hepatic repair was therapeutic method to grade Ⅱ to Ⅳ (48 cases), while hepatectomy or plus selective ligation of hepatic artery were chosen for grade Ⅳ to Ⅴ (13 cases). Peripheral hepatic tamping or plus selective ligation of hepatic artery were effective therapeutic approaches to grade Ⅳ to Ⅴ (11 cases) according to damage control surgery. Results In the operative case.s, 60 cases were cured, 12 died. All non-operative cases were cured. Conclusions Non-operative management is widely becoming one of the most important strategies in the treatment of hepatic trauma with stable hemodynamics. Surgical intervention is still the principal measure of treatment for severe hepatic trauma. According to specific condition, appropriate operative procedures, damage control surgery and prompt management of associated injury will earn a higher success rate.

Objective To analyze the clinical and pathological features of collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) of the kidney. Methods 11 patients with CDC were analyzed,among which 6 were males and 5 were females.Their age ranged from 22 to 67 years old with a mean age of 55.4 cases were found by routine health examination,4 cases were presented with gross hematuria and 3 cases had flank or abdomen pain.The CT scan showed an unclear boundary mass in kidney,with tumor sizes from 2.1 to 8.5 cm ( mean 5.6 cm).Only medullary involvement was present on CT in 3 cases,Medullary and cortical involvement in 5 cases,Medullary and pelvic involvement in 2 cases,and all involvement in 1 case.Infiltrative lesion has expanded kidney but maintains reniform contour.Contrast-enhanced CT scan showed lesion mild to moderate enhancement compared with surrounding parenchyma. Results Radical nephrectomy was performed in 8 cases and palliative nephrectomy in 3 cases.All patients were finally diagnosed by pathology.Grossly,the tumor is often appears gray or white.In HE staining,tumor showed prominent tubular or tubulaopapillary structures with desmoplasia and inflammatory reaction.Occasionally,some tumor cells take on a hobnail appearance.Immunohistochemical examination showed UEA-1 positive in all cases,EMA positive in 9 cases,PNA positive in 8 cases,and HMW-CK positive in 7 cases.Only 2 patients showed positive CD10.7 patients died within 6 to 47 months (mean 12.5 months),2 survived with tumor free for 9 months and 8 years respectively,one lost of follow-up,and one patient with distant metastasis is receiving postoperative chemotherapy. Conclusions Collecting duct carcinoma of the kidney is a rare histological type of renal cell carcinoma,whose final diagnosis depends on histopathological examination.Rapid progression,highly malignant,poor prognosis are the characteristics of this disease.

Objective To explore the causes of deep vein thrombosis in lower extremities (DVT). Meth-ods Retrospective analysis of 411 patients with DVT being treated in our hospital from 2004 to 2009. Results 301 (73.2%) cases were with definite causes and 110( 26.8%) cases without definite causes. 195 cases occurred follow-ing operations and 68 cases following wounds and fractures. 122 cases accompanied with medical conditions ,50 cases occurred following pregnancy or child birth,39 cases suffered from cancer, 19 cases suffered from infection of lower extremity or local lesion,67 cases had past history of DVT. Conclusions Suggest that surgery, wound and fractures, postpartum, cancer, chronic illness inducing long-term bed stay and past history of DVT might correlate with DVT.

Objective To explore a quick and feasible method of screening malaria parasite by using a Sysmex XE-2100 hematology analyzer though alarm information on high eosinophil count and atypical eosinophil distributions in the WBC scattergram. Methods Sysmex XE-2100 hematology analyzer was used for complete blood cell analysis. Microscopic review was used when high eosinophil count and atypicaleosinophil distributions in the WBC scattergram were found. If the review showed normal eosinophil cells, wecontinued to focus on red cell for searching malaria parasite. Results Among 1 501 specimens showing higheosinophil counts and atypical eosinophil distributions, nine cases with normal eosinophil cells were indisaccordance with the hematology analyzer, six of them showed high eosinophil count in the Sysmex XE-2100 hematology analyzer, whose distribution was located close to neutrophil clusters in scattergram. The otherthree had an abnormal WBC scattergram. There was no gap between eosinophil clusters and neutrophilclusters, which brought no classified results. But all the nine specimens had been found the trophozoite,schizont and merozoite in blood smears. Conclusions There were great possibility of the existence of themalaria parasite in specimens when hematology analysis showed high eosinophil count and atypical eosinophildistributions in the WBC scattergram in a Sysmex XE-2100 hematology analyzer, although these alarm wasnot comfirmed by microscopic review. This method provides not only a simple and reliable way for quickscreening malaria parasite but also has a great value in preventing the undetected ratio on malaria parasite.
