Objectives To observe the anesthetic effects of an improved anesthetic method on goat by comparing with the original method, and to provide theoretical and practical reference for anesthesia during the establishment of goat models.Methods A total of 72 goats were selected to make tibial fracture models, 36 were enrolled as group A and others as group B.The group A was injected with Sumianxin and diazepam.The group B was injected with Sumianxin, diazepam and pumped propofol by intravenous pump.The times of animal struggle, total dose of additional Sumianxin, death rate, and recovery time were evaluated.Results The death rate of group A was 16.67% and there was no death in the group B.The times of struggle, the total dose of additional Sumianxin and the recovery time of the group A were higher than group B, showing a significant difference (P<0.05).Conclusions The improved anesthetic method can decrease the times of goat struggle times, reduce the dose of anaesthetics, and lower the death rate.

ObjectiveTo study the correlation between contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) features and Nottingham prognostic index (NPI) in patients with breast carcinoma. Methods The ultrasound features and microvascular imaging manifestation of 91 breast carcinomas confirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed.NPI was typically stratified into 3 major groups:NPI ＜ 3.4 ( n =19 ), NPI:3.4-5.4 ( n =52 ) and NPI ＞5.4(n =21 ). Results With the increase of NPI, the rate of heterogeneous enhancement, perfusion defects, edge enhancement higher than center enhancement, and unclear border increased.The difference among the 3 groups had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no significant difference in enhancement order among the 3 groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).The lesions of the 3 groups were mainly “high enhancement” and there was no significant difference among the 3 groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).With the increase of NPI, the rate of early enhancement and late regression increased.The difference among the 3 groups had statistical significance ( P ＜ 0.05 ).With the increase of NPI, the rate of enlarged and twisted vessels as well as peripheral vessel burr increased.There was significant difference among the 3 groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionCEUS festures and microvescular architecture pattern of breast carcinoma are related to NPI, which is useful in predicating the prognosis of breast carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Rats model of kidney transplantation are common used in the research of organ transplantation and kidney associated diseases. However,the existed modeling methods have various problems in transplanting time or transplantation effect. OBJECTIVE: To establish a lateral kidney transplantation model with simplity,safty,and high success rate. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING: The analysis experiment of animal model was performed at the Department of Urology,Fudan University between March and June,2008. MATERIALS: 60 Wistar rats and 60 Sprague Dawley rats were selected as donors and recipients,respectively. METHODS: The left kidney graft was transplanted heterotopically into the left infrarenal position,to perform donor abdominal aorta and left renal vein end-to-side anastomoses to the recipient abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava. The ureter of kidney allograft was inserted into bladder traced by 5-0 needle. Bilateral native kidneys nephrectomy of the recipient was performed immediately. The operation time and survival rate were measured. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Transplanting time,warm ischemia time,cold ischemia time,arteriovenous anastomosis and operation time,graft failure rate and reason,survival rates. RESULTS: The operation cost 100-140 minutes. The warm ischemia time was about 8-10 seconds,while the cold ischemia time was 40-60 minutes. Operation achievement ratio is 85%. Reasons of failures were analysed as follows: stenosis of the anastomotic stoma and thrombosis (6.67%),hemorrhage of the anastomotic stoma (5%),infection (1.67%),and unknown reason (1.67%). CONCLUSION: The establish method with advantages of convenience and reliability,which can notably shortened time of warm ischemia of the graft and urinary tract reconstruction and decreased complications.

Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is the most common complication after cataract surgery.How to prevent and treat PCO is an urgent problem we need to solve at present.Non-coding RNA(ncRNA) is a kind of RNA, which can not encode proteins.Studies have shown that non-coding RNA is closely related to the occurrence and development of human diseases.This paper has collected the progress of research on different kinds of ncRNA in PCO and may raise new ideas and methods on the prevention and treatment of PCO.

Objective To explore the relative factors with the accidents in the cerebral palsy rehabilitation wards, and preventive measures.Methods The accident cases in the rehabilitation wards were recorded respectively.Results There was a relationship between the rehabilitated patient's accident and their parents, the patients themselves, the surroundings and the staff's consciousness of safety.Conclusion Building the safe management organization, strengthening the safety health education, promoting the surroundings in the wards and training for the staff can reduce the accident rate effectively in the rehabilitation wards.

ObjectiveTo study the characteristic findings on MRI in children surviving premature delivery with cerebral palsy.MethodsThe clinical data and MR imaging in 16 cases surviving premature delivery with cerebral palsy was retrospectively analyzed, compared with 16 healthy and age-matched controls.Results16 cases were final diagnosed as cerebral palsy with spstic diplegia. MRI features of children surviving premature delivery with cerebral palsy included abnormally high signal intensity in the periventricula white matter on T2WI, marked loss of periventricular deep white matter, ventriculomegaly with or without irregular ventricular outline and atrophy of the corpus callossum. These features were consistent with periventricular leukomalacia(PVL).ConclusionPVL was the characteristic findings on MRI in children surviving premature delivery with cerebral palsy. The characteristic findings of PVL was useful in determining the etiology and type of cerebral palsy in children.

Objectives To investigate the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in interleu-kin-15 (IL-15) and treatment response in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods Genomic DNA samples extracted from remission bone marrow cells of ALL patients were genotyped by MassArray. Five SNPs (rs10519612, rs10519613, rs17007695, rs17015014 and rs35964658) in IL-15 and their association to minimal residual disease (MRD) status in the end of induction therapy were studied. Results SNP rs17007695 was associated with the early response in children with ALL(P=0.049) and the incidence of positive MRD after induction therapy in CC genotype carriers was 1.8 times more than that in TT genotype carriers. Haplotype analysis of these five SNPs showed that the frequency of haplotype CACGG in MRD positive group was 2.1 times higher than that in MRD negative group (P=0.035). Conclusions IL-15 gene polymorphism was associated with the early treatment response in Han Chinese children with acute lymphoblastic leuke-mia.

Objective To identify lesion patterns and stroke mechanisms in middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory using early diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) combined with CTA as well as EKG and echocardiography.Methods One hundred and forty-eight acute ischemic stroke patients who had (1) symptomatic lesions located in the unilateral MCA territory on DWI performed within 1 week of symptom onset,and (2) either corresponding MCA disease,internal carotid artery (ICA) disease,MCA & ICA disease or cardio embolism (CE),or (3) neither corresponding MCA disease,ICA disease,nor CE which were taken as group of negative results (NR),were reviewed.Acute DWI lesion patterns were classified as (1) single (small perforator < 2 cm;large perforator ≥2 cm;pial;large territorial;border-zone) and (2) multiple according to principle of single-blind.Results There were 12 types of lesions in MCA territory.Distribution of lesion patterns in different stroke subtypes might be different (χ2= 55.88,P = 0.004).No specific pattern could be found in patients with MCA disease,ICA disease,MCA & ICA disease or CE.Big perforator infarcts might be more common in patients with MCA disease than with ICA disease and CE.Compared with negative group,concomitant perforator and pial infarcts were more common in patients with ICA disease (7/27,χ2=6.61,P <0.05),especially with severe stenosis or occlusion (5/16,χ2=7.32,P < 0.05);No specific pattern could be found in patients with MCA disease or CE.Concomitant perforator,pial,with border-zone infarcts (6/30,χ2= 6.41,P <0.05),and concomitant perforator with border-zone infarcts (4/30,χ2= 5.59,P < 0.05) were more often in patients with severe stenosis or occlusion of MCA.Conclusion Different lesion patterns may indicate different mechanisms of stroke such as hypoperfusion and arterial embolism could be coexistent in MCA territory.The relationship has not been identified perfectly.

Objective To study lymph node micrometastasis in N0 colorectal cancer patients and its clinical significance. Methods In this study, 548 lymph nodes obtained from 62 cases of No colorectal cancer undergoing curative operation were examined by fluorescent quantity polymerase chain reaction assay for the expression of cytokeratin 20 (CK20) mRNA. Results Micrometastasis was detected in 55 lymph nodes (10.0% ) of 24 cases (39%). According to lymph node anatomical locations, micrometastasis was identified in 15. 8%, 5.0% and 3.3% lymph nodes in group Ⅰ ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ (grouped by the distance from the tumor), respectively. Micrometastasis was correlated with invasion depth of primary tumor, but was notrelated to gender, age, tumor size, tumor site and differentiation. Conclusions The expression of CK20mRNA in lymph nodes in patients with No coloreetal cancer could be used to improve the accuracy of clinical staging, and provide information for rational adjuvant therapy.
