Objective To evaluate circumferential mucosectomy for the treatment of prolapsed hemorrhoids. Methods Ten patients with Ⅲ or Ⅳ degree of circular prolapsed hemorrhoids were operated on with circumferential mucosectomy using circular stapler. The mean age was 65 years old with hemorrhoids history of 3~25 years. Results Hemorrhoids in 8 of the 10 patients disappeared immediately after operation and 2 disappeared on the second day postoperatively. 3 patients complained local pain and 6 patients suffered from temporary urine retention after operation. No significant edema or bleeding ensued. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 4 days. No recurrence developed at an averaged 2 months′ follow up. Conclusion The new technique provides a significantly less painful choice of treatment for severely prolapsed circular hemorrhoids. However, the long-term outcome remains to be identified.

Objective To investigate the expression of the cytosolic phospholipase A2(c-PLA2),interleukin-1 beta(IL-1?),tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1(TMP-1) in rat brain after injury.Methods The model of traumatic brain injury originally described by Feeney was employed.The mRNA was analyzed by RT-PCR.Results The mRNA of cytosolic phospholipase A2 was increased at 2 hour and its peak was at 7 day.At 14 day,the level of cytosolic phosphalipase A2 mRNA was still in high level as compared to the control group.Likely,the enhancement expression of interleukin-1? was seen at the 1 hour and the peak time was from 5 to 8 hour.At 72 hour,it decreased to normal level.The expression of inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 was increased at the 2 hour,and the highest expression level was seen during 48 to72 hour.It came down to normal level at 14 day after injury.Conclusion The augment of the expression of the cytosolic phospholipase A2,interleukin-1? and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 following traumatic brain injury suggested that they participated in the pathogenesis of the traumatic brain injury,and may played roles in this pathophysiological process.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of T lymphoma invasion and metastasis 1 (Tiam 1) overexpression in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells.
METHOD:
Endogenous expression of Tiam 1 in 8 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell (HNSCC) lines was investigated by real-time RT-PCR. A lentivirus vector containing Tiaml was transfected into UM-SCC-47 cells, a head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line with little endogenous Tiaml expression. Stable clone, obtained by G418 screening, were assayed by RT-PCR and Western blot to validate the gene expression efficiency. The biological behaviors of the transduced cells were determined by cell counting, MTT and in-vitro migration assay.
RESULT:
Tiam 1 gene was highly expressed in M2 cell line and it's low level expression was found in UM-SCC-47. Cell counting and MTT assay showed that over-expression of Tiaml significantly promoted cell proliferation (P < 0.05). The cell monolayers overexpressed Tiaml that resulted in a significant increasment of cell migration in infected head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Tiam 1 gene plays an important role in the growth and migration in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines. It may be a useful marker for metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical application of free superficial iliac circumflex artery skin flaps, as well as the management of donor site defects.
METHODS17 free superficial iliac circumflex artery skin flaps were applied for the traumatic defects or deformities on face, neck, foot, hand, ankle and lower leg, respectively. The donor site defects were closed directly or covered by paraumbilical island flaps.
RESULTSThe 17 flap size ranged from 5 cm x 3 cm to 19 cm x 14 cm. 16 flaps survived completely except 1 flap with partial necrosis, which was closed by free skin graft. The donor site defects were closed directly in 10 cases, and covered by paraumbilical island flaps in 7 flaps without no flap necrosis. The abdomen had a good appearance.
CONCLUSIONSGood appearance can be achieved with free superficial iliac circumflex artery skin flaps for the defects on face, neck, foot, hand, ankle and lower leg. Paraumbilical island flap can be used for the donor site defects.

Objective To investigate the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on complement 3a (C3a)-induced renal tubular epithelial to mesenchymal transition. Methods The HK-2 cells were divided into 6 groups namely control group,EPO group,TGF-β group,TGF-β+EPO group,C3a group and EPO+C3a group.The mRNA and protein expressions of α-SMA,E-cadherin and C3 were investigated by RT-PCR,Western blot and immunofluorescence respectively. Results Compared with control group and EPO group,the mRNA and protein expressions of α-SMA in HK-2 cells were up-regulated after the intervention of C3a or TGF-β (all P<0.05).On the contrast,the mRNA and protein expressions of E-cadherin were down-regulated(P<0.05),the mRNA and protein expressions of C3 were enhanced (all P<0.05).However,all those above effects of C3a or TGF-β were inhibited after the intervention of EPO (all P<0.05). Conclusion EPO is capable of suppressing the epithelial to mesenchymal transition induced by C3a.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Diver CE aspiration thrombus catheter used in patients during the recovery of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 50 AMI patients were enrolled from January 2010 to December 2011. Twenty-ifve patients received PCI and used the Diver CE aspiration thrombus catheter (aspiration group);and the other 25 patients received routine PCI (routine PCI group). The basic characteristics, PCI characteristics, myocardial perfusion indexes and clinical data were compared and analyzed. Results There was no statistically difference between two groups in basic characteristics. Compared with the routine PCI group, higher rate of myocardial blush grade 3 but lower thrombus scores were found in the aspiration group. The incidence of no-lfow or slow-lfow were also lower in aspiration group (all P<0.05). The LVEF after 6 and 12 months were higher in the aspiration group (both P<0.05), no difference in MACE between the two groups. Conclusions Using the Diver CE thrombus aspiration in PCI is a simple and safe by method for treatment of acute myocardial infarction with high thrombosis burden. It can improve reperfusion decrease the rates of no-relfow on slow-relfow and can improve the long-term left ventricular function.

The paper reported an investigation of the pharmacokinetics of SN-38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxy-camptothecin) in rats and the tissue distribution in mice after injection of irinotecan hydrochloride nanoparticles (CPT-11) via tail veins. An LC-MS/MS method was established to determine the concentrations of SN-38 in whole blood of rats and in different tissues of mice. The pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of SN-38 were compared after the intravenous injection of CPT-11 NPs and CPT-11 solution. Compared with irinotecan solution, the elimination half-life of SN-38 was prolonged from 2.17 h to 2.67 h after the intravenous injection of CPT-11 NPs, but its AUC had little change. After the injection of CPT-11 NPs in mice, over time, the concentrations of CPT-11-metabolized SN-38 in CPT-11 NPs were significantly higher in the whole blood, colon and lungs than those in CPT-11 solution, followed by in the spleen and liver, but those in the heart and brain had no change. However, the amount of SN-38 in the kidneys was reduced with time. CPT-11 NPs could prolong SN-38's (one of its metabolites) blood circulation time in rats and significantly increased the concentration of CPT-11-metabolized SN-38 in the whole blood, colon and lungs of mice. CPT-11 NPs made SN-38 efficiently target-bind to the colon and lungs of mice.

Objective To evaluate the effects of chronic exposure to sub-anesthetic concentrations of sevoflurane on memory function and homeostasis of mice.Methods Thirty-six healthy male Kunming mice,aged 40 days,weighing 25-30 g,were randomly assigned into 3 groups (n =12 each):control group (group C),0.1% sevoflurane group (group L) and 0.5 % sevoflurane group (group H).The mice inhaled 0.1% (group L) or 0.5% sevoflurane (group H) between 18:00-6:00 (the next day) every night for 30 days.Water maze test was performed at 27-30 days of inhalation.Blood samples were collected from the left ventricle for blood gas analysis and for determination of blood electrolytes.Results There was no significant difference in swimming time in Water maze test,number of errors and blood gas analysis and blood electrolytes.Conclusion Chronic exposure to subanesthetic concentrations of sevoflurane has no significant effects on memory function and homeostasis of mice.
