Objective To evaluate the effect of finasteride on perioperative bleeding following transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate (PKRP).Methods A total of 118 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) undergoing PKRP were randomly divided into three groups:40cases received 5mg of finasteride daily for 7 days before surgery as 1 week group,38 cases received 5mg of finasteride daily for 3 months before surgery as 3 months group,the other 40 cases without taking finasteride before surgery as control group.A comparative study of clinical data was made among the three groups.Results The operation was successfully completed in 118 cases.As compared to control group,intraoperative irrigating fluid volume[(31.5 ± 5.6) L vs.(26.4 ± 6.2) L and (24.3±5.2)L],intraoperative blood loss[(173.5± 16.9) ml vs.(163.5± 15.8) ml and (156.4±16.2) ml],loss of 1 gram prostate tissue for resection[(8.6±4.8)ml/g vs.(7.4±5.4) ml/g and (6.6±5.6) ml/g]and operation time(72.5±16.2) min vs.(58.4±17.8) min and (56.7±16.5) min in 1 week and 3 months groups with taking finasteride were decreased (all P<0.05).And there were differences in the above indexes (all P< 0.05) between 1 week group and 3 months groups.Conclusions The use of finasteride before PKRP is safe and reliable to reduce perioperative bleeding in BPH patients.Moreover,taking 5mg of finasteride for three months is of better effectiveness than taking 5mg of finasteride for 1 week.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between glial growth factor (GGF), nerve growth factor (NGF) and growth characteristics of prolactinoma (PRL) and to evaluate pre and postoperative growth of PRL. MethodsImmunohistochemistry was used to analyze expression of GGF and NGF in 86 cases of PRL and to analyze the relationship between expression of GGF, NGF and PRL level, invasion, stroke, microvessel density. Cells were cultured with GGF and NGF to observe cell growth, cell cycle and angiogenesis. The relationship between proliferation, growth rate and GGF, NGF was evaluated by rank correlation and Chi-square test. Results GGF expression was significantly higher in invasive, stroke and recurrent pituitary adenomas ( P < 0.05 ).Microvessel density increased significantly ( P < 0.01 ). NGF expression was significantly lower in invasive, apoplexy and recurrent adenomas ( P < 0. 05 ). Microvessel density decreased dramatically with NGF interruption ( P < 0.05 ). GGF showed a positive correlation with growth rate of PRL. NGF showed a negative correlation with invasion and stroke. ConclusionsGGF is one of the factors facilitating growth and invasion of PRL while NGF can partly restrain proliferation of PRL cells. Expression of GGF and NGF indirectly reflects proliferation activity of PRL and can be used as markers to evaluate invasion, recurrence, treatment response and prognosis of PRL.

The prevalence of metabolic syndrome among the 2057 urban adults in Wuhan was 10.74%, being 13.47% in males and 4.99% in females.The prevalence increased with aging,blood uric acid level and insulin resistance index.

【Objective】 To investigate the unqualified rate of anti-HIV detection of blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, and explore the differences in anti-HIV detection ability and influencing factors in each laboratory. 【Methods】 Through filling questionnaires via e-mail, the anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate and confirmed (WB) positive results (data) from January to December 2018 from 15 blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region were collected. Our laboratory was responsible for data collection and confirmation, and statistics software SPSS22.0 was used for analysis. 【Results】 1) There was a statistically significant difference among the unqualified rate of anti-HIV ELISA(6.77‱~35.71‱) and confirmed positive rate(0.60‱~3.56‱) in 15 blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region (P<0.05); 2) There were significant differencse among the ELISA unqualified rate and the confirmed positive rate of 8 reagents for anti-HIV detection(P<0.01), and the sensitivity of the 4th generation detection reagent and the imported reagent was higher than that of the 3rd generation reagent and the domestic reagent. The anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate of R5 was the highest (19.08‱). 3)There were significant differences in the anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate of R1, R2, R3, R5 and R7 reagents among different blood station laboratories(P<0.05), and there were no significant differences in the anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate of R4, R6 and R8 reagents among different blood station laboratories(P>0.05). 4)The unqualified rate of anti-HIV ELISA of laboratories using different regents showed significant differences(P<0.05), except H, J, M. The unqualified rate of imported reagent was significantly higher than that of domestic reagents of laboratories using imported and domestic reagents combinations(P<0.05), except O. 62.5% (5/8) laboratories using domestic 3rd and 4th generation reagent combination showed significant differences in the unqualified rates among different reagents(P<0.05); 5) The positive rate of single-reagent(62.02%~95.45%)in 15 blood screening laboratories showed significant difference(P<0.001), and A was the lowest (62.02%). 【Conclusion】 The anti-HIV detection ability among 15 blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is quite different. The application of different reagents is the main factor for the difference, and other factors such as personnel, instruments and test strategies also has a great impact on the detection of anti-HIV. It is still necessary to promote the process of homogenization of blood testing quality among blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
