Objective To investigate the therapeautic effects of ulinastatin on ulcerative colitis(UC) and it's possible mechanism.Methods Forty adult Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups;normal group(group A),UC group(group B),SASP(salicylazosulfapyridine) therapeautic therapeutic group(group C),ulinastatin(UTI) therapeautic group(group D). UC models were induced by trinitrophenylmethylnitramine(TNBS), Group A and Group B received 0 9% saline solution instead of ulinastatin and SASP as a control.Serum level of tumor necrotic factor-?(TNF-?),malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD) and pathological change were measured respectively after drugs treatment for two weeks.Results Both UTI and SASP decreased the level of serum TNF-?,MDA ,increased the level of serum SOD ,and relieved mucosa lesion and pathological change in UC rats . UTI was better than SASP in the treatment of UC.Conclusions UTI has apparent therapeautic effects.The mechanism may be associated with inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines and clearance of free radicals.

Selective salpingogram(SSG)and hysterosalpingography(HSG)have achieved fairly reliable diagnostic value. SSG and transcervical fallopian tube recanalization(T-FTR)possess rather credible therapeutic value,long-term effect and low risk. Recanalization rate and pregnancy rate,combining with the measurement of tubal perfusion pressures(TPP)and development of ultrasonic technology,can evaluate the therapeutic effect and safety more generally and objectively. Researches in the future should lay emphasis on developing non-radiologic technique,promoting diagnostic veracity,reducing side effects,and establishing randomly control trials together with consolidating the standardized evaluation criteria.(J Intervent Radiol,2007,16: 714-717)

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and surgical treatment of peripheral solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN).Methods From January 2007 to October 2012,the clinical data of 69 cases of SPN treated were analyzed prospectively.And postoperative pathologic examination results as the gold standard to determine spiral CT enhanced check the accuracy and consistency test (Kappa test).Results Twenty-eight cases were diagnosed as malignant SPN by preoperative CT,25 cases were diagnosed as malignant SPN by postoperative pathology.The accuracy of CT judgment SPN benign and malignancy was 89.3％ (25/28),the Kappa value was 0.503.All patients were followed up for 6-12 (9.6 ± 1.4) months.There was no recurrence or enlargement.Conclusions Enhanced spiral CT scan is more economical and practical way for identifying benign and malignant SPN.Malignant SPN diagnosed by CT should be considered having surgery and auxiliary thoracoscopy combined with intraoperative rapid freezing to determine the surgical approach.

Objective To compare the efficacy of transumbilical-ultrafine gastroscope sympathectomy for severe palmar hyperhidrosis using two distinct levels of T3 and T4.Methods A total of 84 cases with severe primary hyperhidrosis were randomly allocated to undergo either T3 sympathectomy treatment (T3 group, n =42) or T4 sympathectomy treatment (T4 group, n =42) with no difference between the two groups.The operation time, postoperative hospital stay, patient's hands hyperhidrosis, axillary hyperhidrosis,complications were recorded at follow-up in 1,3,6,12 months.Results Operation on 84 patients were successful with mean operative time of T3 group being 55.02 ± 10.61 min and T4 group being 55.36 ± 10.51 min(P ＞ 0.05).The mean postoperative hospital stay were both 1.5 days.Patients were followed up for diaphragmatic hernia, umbilical hernia, Horner's syndrome and other serious complications for 12 months.No postoperative recurrence of palmar hyperhidrosis, severe compensatory sweating occurred in either group.The number of improved patients in T3 group's palmar hyperhidrosis,axillary hyperhidrosis, and foot hyperhidrosis were :42/42 cases, 10/16 cases, 21/29 cases, while those in T4 group were: 42/42 cases,16/17 cases 18/28 cases.Axillary hyperhidrosis improved to a larger extent in T4 group than in T3 group (P ＜0.05).There were 16(15 mild and 1 moderate)compensatory sweating in T3 group and 7(6 mild and 1 moderate) compensatory sweating in T4 group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion T3 and T4 thoracic sympathectomy using transumbilical-ultrafine gastroscope for primary palmar hyperhidrosis are safe, effective, and feasible.T4 sympathectomy is more effective in improving axillary hyperhidrosis than T3 and shows lower occurrence of postoperative compensatory hyperhidrosis.

For unresectable advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),besides sorafenib,alternative drugs and treatment modalities are required.Clinical studies of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC),transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE),and system chemotherapy have shown favorable efficacy and tolerance in advanced HCC patients.In addition,the potential efficacy of sorafenib combined with focal treatment is also an interesting issue.As more therapies become available,decision-making for treating advanced HCC becomes increasingly complex.In our opinion,diverse treatment modalities should be utilized for the best interest of patients.Based on predictive biomarkers,we should develop a precise patient stratification system to select suitable candidates for each treatment modality in future studies,as is useful for improving prognosis of patients with advanced HCC.

Objective To clarify if estrogen increases gastric mucosal injury in portal hypertensive rats and its role in the pathogenesis of portal hypertensive gastropathy. Methods Forty SD rats were divided into 4 groups:P + E, P, S + E and S groups. P + E and P groups received portal vein ligation and the S + E and S groups underwent sham operation. P + E and S + E groups were given estrogen intramascularly. All rats were maintained on their indiuidual treatment for 14 days. One hour before the sacrifice rats were orally lavaged with 2 ml 99% ethanol. Gastric mucosal blood flow, degree of gastric mucosal injury and mucosal NO production were determined. Results The P + E group had the highest gastric blood flow of (103?14) U compared with the other 3 groups (P

Objective To investigate the effect of pre- hospital emergency care programs in children with febrile seizures,in order to reduce damage by febrile seizures and obtain the best firstaid effect. Methods 112 cases of children with febrile seizures were treated in pediatric department of our hospital from April 2009 to February 2011.The parents of 75 children patients were given guidance of prehospital emergency care,they were set as the pre-hospital emergency care group.The other 37 cases were set as the non-pre-hospital emergency care group,routine emergency care was given until the medical personnel arrived at the spot.The conditions of aspiration,tongue bite injury,another episode of febrile seizures and brain damage were recorded in two groups of children. Results Only one case of aspiration and three cases of febrile seizures occurred in the pre-hospital emergency care group by misoperation of parents.Non brain damage and tongue bite injury occurred.The incidence rate of improper consequences was 5.3％in the pre-hospital emergency care group,lower than that of the non-pre-hospital emergency care group,51.4％. Conclusions To give pre-hospital emergency care guidance to parents of children patients by mobile phones before the health care workers reach the spot can significantly reduce accidental injury of children,stabilize the emotion of parents,decrease the impact of seizures on children,all the above has a positive effect on follow-up treatment.
