Objective To investigate the factors predicting endoscopic stone extraction complications during operation and 1 week within operation. Methods The clinical data of 136 patients with common duet stones during endoscopic procedures and 1 week within procedures were collected, and the impacts of the number, size of stones, and the first-attack versus recurrent-attack stone, with or without cholangeitis on the complications during operation and 1 week within operation were analyzed, and the effect of nasobiliary drainage was investigated. Results The success rate in single-stone group was high, the incidences of complications during endoscopy including sphincter hemorrhage, cardiac laceration, hyperamylasemia, acute pancreatitis were significantly lower than those in the multi-stones group ( P < 0. 05 ). The group of < 2 cm stone also had high success rate of stone extraction, the incidences of complications including sphincter hemorrhage, stone impaction, cardiac laceration, hyperamylasemia, acute pancreatitis were significantly lower than those in the ≥2 cm group. The first-attack group had low success rate of stone extraction, the incidences of complications including sphincter hemorrhage, stone impaction, hyperamylasemia, acute pancreatitis and biliary infection were significantly higher than those in the recurrent-attack group. The patients with cholangeitis had low success rate of stone extraction, the incidences of complications including sphincter hemorrhage, hypoxemia, hyperamylasemia, acute pancreatitis and biliary infection were significantly higher than those without cholangeitis. After nasobiliary drainage, the incidences of hyperamylasemia, acute pancreatitis and biliary infection significantly decreased while the incidence of sphincter hemorrhage significantly increased. Conclusions The number, size of stones, and the first-attack versus recurrent-attack stone, symptoms with orwithout cholangeitis could predict the complications of stone extraction;post-ERCP nssobiliary drainage could decrease the complications, but increase the possibility of sphincter hemorrhage.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of cigarette smoke promotes non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) NCI-H520 cell line proliferation mediated by macrophages with method of blocking NFκB-p65 pathway by RNAi.Methods To co-culture NCI-H520 cells with primary macrophages or U937 cell line,the Transwell Inserts system was used in cell co-culture model.NFκB activation was confirmed by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and Western blot analysis.U937 cells were transfected with NFκB-p65 shRNA plasmid to abrogate the NFκB activation,by BrdU ELISA,the effect of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) promoted NCI-H520 cells proliferation were assessed,inflammatory factors TNF and IL-6 expressions were analysed by ELISA.Results Exposure of CSE enhanced NFκB-p65 nuclcus translocation and activated the NFκB pathway.CSE did not promote NCI-H520 cells proliferation alone (P ＞ 0.05),but after 4 days coincubation with macrophages,the proliferation of NCI-H520 cells was significantly increased (P ＜0.01),addition of CSE to the co-culture much more enhanced this effect (P ＜ 0.01).After NFκB-p65 was blocked by RNAi,it significantly reduced NFκB-p65 protein expression and inhibited NFκB activation in U937 p65-cells,and markedly inhibited U937 cells induced proliferation of NCI-H520 cells and IL-6,TNF secretion (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Cigarette smoke promotes NCI-H520 cells proliferation mediated by macrophages.Blockade of NFκB pathway with RNAi in macrophages can reduced cigarette smoke induced inflammatory factors secretion in macrophages,and significantly inhibit cigarette smoke promoted tumor proliferation.

The experience in diagnosis and treatment of bleeding complications in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) by transcatheter arterial embolization was summarized. The clinical data of 19 SAP patients complicated with intra-abdominal bleeding in our hospital from Jan. 2000 to Jan. 2003 were analyzed retrospectively and the therapeutic outcome of TAE was evaluated statistically. The results showed that the short-term successful rate of hemostasis by TAE was 89.5% (17/19), the incidence of re-bleeding after TAE was 36.8% (7/19) and the successful rate of hemostatis by second TAE was 71.4% (5/7). It was concluded that the intra-abdominal bleeding in SAP was mainly caused by the rupture of erosive/infected pseudoaneurysm. Mostly, the broken vessels were splenic artery and gastroduodenal artery; In terms of emergence hemostatis, TAE is the most effective method. Surgical hemostasis is necessary if hemostasis by TAE is failed or re-bleeding occurs after TAE.

The proliferation and differentiation of pancreatic duct epithelial cells in remnant pancreas during regeneration after partial pancreatectomy in rats were studied, and the source of pancreatic stem cells was characterized. Partial (90 %) pancreatectomy was performed on 4- to 5-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats, and different duct epithelial cells and acinar cells were detected by immunohistrochemical stain method and scored using 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling index (LI) at various time points after partial pancreatectomy. It was found that at 24 h after partial pancreatectomy proliferation started in the main, large and small duct cells, and persisted in small duct cells to day 5. There was significant difference between the experimental group and the control group (P<0.001). Acinar cells positive for BrdU were greatly increased and reached the peak LI on day 5. The destroyed lobular architecture almost totally recovered on day 7, and the newly islet cells appeared around the pancreatic ducts. These results suggest that regeneration after partial pancreatectomy is involved in proliferation and differentiation of pancreatic stem cells, and pancreatic stem cells may locate in the pancreatic ductules.

Aim To investigate the effects of an angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker,candesartan, on aorta oxidative stress-LOX-1 pathway in salt-loaded stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP).Methods 12-week-old salt-loaded SHRSP were treated with candesartan(1.0 mg?kg-1?d-1)or a diuretic, trichlormethiazide(TCM,1.6 mg?kg-1?d-1) or no treatment(n=6) in each for 2 weeks. Age-matched salt-loaded WKY rats were served as control(n=6).Systolic blood pressure(SBP)was measured weekly throughout the 2-week period by means of the tail-cuff method.Thoracic aortas were extracted and 24 h urine was collected.NAD(P)H oxidase subunits(p22 phox, p47 phox and gp91 phox)mRNA expression in aorta were assayed by real-time PCR. LOX-1 and type Ⅳ collogen mRNA expression were examined by RT-PCR. gp91 phox and LOX-1 protein expression in aorta were assayed by immunohistochemistry.Urinary albumin excretion was examined by ELISA.Results At the end of the 2nd week, SBP was significantly higher in salt-loaded SHRSP than that in salt-loaded WKY rats. Treatment with candesartan and TCM significantly decreased SBP in salt-loaded SHRSP at similar levels.NAD(P)H oxidase subunits (p47 phox and gp91 phox)and LOX-1 mRNA expression in aorta were markedly higher in salt-loaded SHRSP than those in salt-loaded WKY rats.Candesartan and TCM had the effect of reducing the systolic blood pressure at similar levels. Candesartan significantly down-regulated aorta p22 phox, gp91 phox,LOX-1 and type Ⅳ collogen mRNA expression and decreased urine albumin excretion in salt-loaded SHRSP(P

Objective To sum up the experience on diagnosis and treatment of intraabdominal bleeding in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods The clinical data of 37 SAP patients with bleeding complications from Jan 1999 to Jan 2003 were analyzed retrospectively. The causes of bleeding were of erosive (5 cases), infected (20 cases), intra operative/postoperative (10 cases) and coagulopathy (2 cases). Results The mortality was 10% (2/19) for transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE), 30% (7/23) for laparotomy, 50% (2/4) for conservative thepary. The cause related mortality was 0 (0/5), 30% (6/20), 40% (4/10) and 50% (1/2) for erosive, infection, intra/post operative, and coagulopathy respectively. Conclusion In SAP most intra abdominal bleedings are from erosive/infective pseudoaneurysms of splenic artery or/and gastroduodenal artery. The preferred diagnosis methods were CT and selective angiography which often give definite diagnosis. TAE is most effective therapy, when it fails, a surgery is necessary.
