Objective To investigate forte and technique in radical correction of gastric eardia carcinoma (esophagojejunostomy and gastric stump esophago anastomosis). Methods 753 Patients with gastric cardia carcinoma admitted to our hospital from 1998 to 2007 treated with radical correction by jejuno-osophagus an-astomosis and esophagogastric anastomosis to digestive tract reconstruction, circular staplers were used in all cases. Results There was no death (no leakage、bleeding and stricture of anastornotic entrance stenosis)in these cases by thoracoabdominal approach 6 cases, anastomotic leakage 0 case, pero-eutting 2 cases, steno-sis 4 cases, infection of abdominal cavity 1 case, diaphragmatic hernia 1 case, pathologic diagnosis of exam-ple after operation , the upper cut positive 1 case, the lower cut negative in all cases. Conclusions in rad-ical correction gastric cardia carcinoma, the application of circular stapler makes this procedure simple, reli-ability, safety and time saving, descends the ratio of radical correction of gastric cardia carcinoma by thora-coabdominal approach, decreases surgical trauma, decurtate the period of recovery following an illness, pre-vent the complications of post-operation such as the leakage and stricture of anastomotic entrance. But the applieation of circular stapler is not absolutely trustworthy, there are also any ratio of leakage ,haemorrhage and stricture of anastomotic entrance, the technique worth summarizing and investgating in the future.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane on β-amyloid (Aβ)-induced cognitive dysfunction and oxidative stress response of hippocampal tissues in rats.Methods Ninety-six male adlut SpragueDawley rats,weighing 250-300 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =24 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) ; group Aβ ; 1.3 ％ sevoflurane group (group S1) and 2.6 ％ sevoflurane group (group S2).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal.10％ chloral hydrate 350 mg/kg.Cognitive dysfunction was induced by injecting Aβ1-40 2 μ1 into the bilateral hippocampi in Aβ,S1 and S2 groups.The equal volume of normal saline was given in group C.At 22 days after injection,C and Aβ groups were exposed to 30％ oxygen for 4 h,and S1 and S2 groups inhaled 1.3 ％ and 2.6 ％ sevoflurane,respectively,for 4 h.Eight rats were chosen at days 1,3 and 7 after exposure and cognitive function was assessed by Morris water maze test.The swimming speed,escape latency and exploration time at the original platform quadrant were recorded.The rats were then sacrificed after the end of the behavioral test and blood samples were taken for determination of serum S100β protein concentration.Hippocampi were immediately isolated and the homogenate was prepared for determination of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly prolonged and exploration time at the original platform quadrant was shortened,the serum S100β protein concentration and MDA content were increased,and SOD activity was decreased at each time point in group Aβ (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the variables mentioned above between Aβ and S1 groups (P ＞ 0.05).The escape latency was significantly prolonged and the exploration time at the original platform quadrant was shortened,the serum S100β protein concentration and MDA content were increased,and SOD activity was decreased at each time point in group S2 as compared with Aβ and S1 groups (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the swimining speed among the 4 groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Inhalation of 2.6 ％ sevoflurane for 4 h can aggravate the cognitive dysfunction induced by Aβ in rats and aggravation of oxidative stress response may be involved in the mechanism.

BACKGROUND:Experiments have shown that the col agen substrate has the capability of stimulating cartilage generation, but the stimulating role of different types of col agen substrates remains controversial. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of type I and type II col agen on the biological characteristics of human chondrocytes cultured in vitro. METHODS:Human chondrocytes at passage were cultured onto the ordinary culture plates (ordinary plate), type I col agen-coated culture plates (type I plate), and type II col agen-coated culture plates (type II plate). cellgrowth curves were determined by MTT method after cells were cultured for 10 days. By ELISA, PCR, and 1,9-dimethyl methyleneblue technology, type I and type II col agen and glycosaminoglycan contents were quantitatively detected in cartilage cells 28 days after culture. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of cartilage cells was the highest in type II plate, which was twice of that in type I plate and five times of that in ordinary plate. Cartilage cells in type II plate secreted the least amount of type I col agen, which showed significant differences compared with the ordinary plate (P<0.01) and had no statistical y significant difference with type I plate (P>0.01). Cartilage cells in type II plate secreted the most amount of type II col agen and glycosaminoglycan, showing significant differences compared with the other two plates (P<0.01). The cartilage cells cultured in col agen plates are better than that cultured in ordinary culture plate, type II col agen culture plate is better than type I col agen culture plate in maintaining cellshape, extending the dedifferentiation pattern, and promoting celldifferentiation.

Small intestinal neuroendocrine carcinoma is poorly differentiated,highly malignant,and originated from the diffuse neuroendocrine system.It diffusely expresses the general neuroendocrine differentiation markers.The disease can be manifested as carcinoid syndrome,but most of the patients were with occult onset and absence of specific clinical symptoms,which led to difficult diagnosis before operation.On June 18,2012,a patient with manifestation of recurrent vague abdominal pain received capsule endoscopy at the Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital.The capsule endoscope was retained in the distal small intestine,and malignant ileum lesion was revealed during the surgical exploration.Finally,poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma with abdominal wall metastases was identified by pathological examination.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of three different methods of digestive tract reconstruction after total gastrectomy.Methods:A total of 106 cases underwent the uncutted Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy with a jejunal pouch(group A,n=38) ,Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy with the J-type jejunal pouch(group B,n=31) ,and Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy with the Orr-type jejunal pouch(group C,n=37) respectively.The clinical data were retrospectively studied.The digestive tract reconstruction time,the post-operative complication incidence rate,postprandial symptoms,food-intake quantity,weight,serum nutritional parameters and emptying time of the gastricsubstitute were compared respectively.Results:The reconstruction time was the shortest in group A,which was significantly shorter than that in group B(P0.05) ,Group A was significantly lower than group B and C in the incidence of roux stasis syndrome.The Visick score of group A were superior to those of group B and C in 6 and 12 months after operation.The food intake gain of group A and B were superior to that of group C 6 and 12 months after operation.There were no significant differences among 3 groups in the term of weight,Hb and ALB loss and prognosis nutritional index(PNI) 6 months postoperatively.Weight and ALB loss in group A and B were lower than those in group C 12 months postoperatively,but PNI was higher in group A and B than those in group C.Emptying time of the gastric substitute was prolonged both in group A and B 12 months postoperatively.Conclusion:The uncutted Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy may act as an adoptable method of digestive tract reconstruction after total gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
