Objective To establish a stable and repeatable experimental partial bladder outlet obstruction(p-BOO)rat model and to figure out the impaction of p-BOO on detrusor biomechanical properties.Methods P-BOO animal model was established by partialligation of the bladder neck of male Wistar rats,a urethra stricture by laying a trochar outside of bladder neck.The rats were divided into sham-operation group,P-BOO 6 weeks group(P-B006W)and P～BOO 12 weeks group(PBOO12W)by time.Cystomety was performed in P-BOO6W and the rats were divided into detrusor instability group(DI)and destrusor stability group(DS)on the basis of destrusor stability.The active contraction of detrusor muscle stripes to Carbachol was recorded with tensile foree transducer.The compliance and maximum volume of bladder,bladder leak point pressure were examined by filling cystometry.Results The bladders of P-BOO animal model demonstrated typical post obstruction alterations after P-BOO.The maximum volume increased significantly in DI group(10.8±3.0)ml,DS group(10.3±1.9)ml and P-B0012W group(9.5±2.3)ml as compared with that in sham-operation group(2.1±0.3)ml(P＜0.05).The bladder leak point pressures were significantly higher in DI group(39.4±7.1)cm H2O,DS group(35.9±6.2)cmH2O and P-B0012W group(48.6±9.5)cm H2O as compared with that in sham-operation group(16.2±2.1)cm H2O(P＜0.05).The bladder compliances were significantly higher in 13I group(0.27±0.08)ml/cm H2O,DS group(0.29±0.05)ml/cm H2O and P-BOO12W group(0.21±0.05)ml/cm H2O as compared with that in sham-operationgroup(0.13±0.03)ml/cm H20(P＜0.05).The detrusor contractile force of DI group was significantly lower than that in the sham-operation group and DS group(P＜0.05).No definite contraction wave was detected in the detrusor muscle of P-BOO12W group(amplitude＜0.05g).Conclusions There are 2 different types of the detrusor contraction after P-BOO:DI group with impaired contraction and conversely DS group with compensatory contraction.The contractility of detrusor muscle will be damaged and even irreversible contractile function incapacitation will occur if the obstruction is not removed.The effect of bladder stability tO bladder compliance is inconspicuous and there is close correlation between bladder compliance and bladder capacity.

Objective To evaluate efficiency of brain metastases tumor using X-knife under farctionational stereotactie radiotherapy (FSRT) combine with whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT). Methods Retrospective comparing 51 patients treated by FSRT plus WBRT (FSRT + WBRT group) with 35 patients treated by WBRT alone (WBRT group) on the effecting rate and survival rate. Results The completeness response rate was 49 % and 26 % (P < 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respectively. The effecting rate was 80 % and 71 % (P 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respectively. The middle survival time was (11.0 ± 1.5) months and (6.5 ± 0.5) months (P < 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respeetivley. The 0.5-, 1.0- and 1.5-years survival rate was 63 % and 41 % (P 0.05), 51 % and 23 % (P 0.05) and 24 % and 9 % (P < 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respectively. Conclusions The method with FSRT plus WBRT in the treatment of brain metastases tumor is safe and relieved focal symptom of patients quickly with lesser injury on normal tissue and the survival time be prolonged, it has better therapeutic effects than WBRT alone for treating brain metastases tumor.

Objective To discuss the management of urethral duplication in children. Methods The clinical data of 1 8 children(all are males)with urethral duplication were retrospectivelv ana-lyzed. All the 18 patients were sagittal plane included epispadias in 6,hyposPadias in 4 and Y type in the remaining 8. In 6 cases with epispadias,3 patients underwent excision of the accessorv dorsal ure-thra,3 patients without operation.Urethroplasty was necessary in the patient with a duplicated hypo-spadiac urethra. Of 8 patients with Y-type urethral duplication,7 patients underwent 2 stage repair including displacement of the urethra from the anal canal to the perineum at stage 1 and subsequent urethral reconstruction at stage 2.The ventral urethra which was hypospadias had been excised in the other one. Results All the patients were followed-up. Good cosmetic and functional resuIts were a-chieved in the 3 boys who underwent excision of the accessory dorsal urethra.In the hypospadiac du-plication,2 patients could void spontaneously through a normally positioned granular meatus.One boy presented with urethral stenosis after operated. One boy had a vesicostomy for neuropathic bladder. In Y-type urethral duplications,only 1 patient was successful after 2-stage urethroplasty,3 patients de- veloped urethra stricture or fistula,3 boys need the 2-stage operation,the other 0ne who underwent excision of the ventral urethra could void spontaneously. Conclusions Urethral duplication is a rare congenital anomaly.The clinical presentation varies because of the different anatomical Datterns of this abnormality. Commonly the ventral urethra is most functional and maintained after surgical correc-tion.Surgical management should be individual and depend on the anatomical configuration of the du-plicated urethras.

Objective To explore the current status of healthcare-associated infection (HAI)and antimicrobial use in a children’s hospital.Methods Prevalence rates of HAI and antimicrobial use among hospitalized patients at 0∶00—24∶00 of May 1 ,2014 were investigated by combination of bedside visiting and medical record reviewing. Results A total of 1 027 patients were investigated,8 patients developed 10 times of infection,prevalence rate of HAI was 0.78%,prevalence case rate was 0.97%.HAI mainly occurred in patients in blood center (n =4),the main infection site was respiratory tract(upper respiratory tract,n=2;lower respiratory tract,n=2),antimicrobial usage rate was 62.12%.Antimicrobial usage rate,purpose of antimicrobial use,and combination use of antimicro-bial agents among different departments were all significantly different(all P <0.05).The departments with top 3 antimicrobial usage rates were neonatal center(89.69%),emergency center(76.00%),and comprehensive depart-ment(73.91 %);except department of ophthalmology-otorhinolaryngology-stomatology (preventive antimicrobial use accounted for 57.89%)and department of surgery(therapeutic antimicrobial use accounted for 26.32%),the other departments mainly used therapeutic antimicrobial agents;department of ophthalmology-otorhinolaryngology-stoma-tology,heart center,and neurological rehabilitation center mainly adopted single medication treatment (all >95%), two-drug combination rate in neonatal center accounted for 48.28%,three-drug combination rate in blood center ac-counted for 30.30%.Conclusion Routine surveillance on departments and sites of high HAI incidence should be in-tensified in children’s hospitals,training on knowledge of HAI among health care workers should be strengthened, and antimicrobial should be used rationally.

Objective To compare the treatment efficacy of severe hypospadias between two-stage urethral plate reconstruction procedure and two-stage tubularized transverse preputial island flap procedure. Methods From 2010 December to 2014 December, we retrospectively analyzed 82 cases with severe hypospadias, using two-stage urethral plate reconstruction and two-stage tubularized transverse preputial island flap urethroplasty, respectively.Their mean age in the first operation was 2.4 years, ranged from 2 to 3 years.Hypospadias were penoscrotal type in 32 cases, perineal type in 50 cases.In group A, 42 cases, including penoscrotal type in 15 cases, perineal type in 27 cases, with urethral plate reconstruction procedure underwent two-stage urethroplasty.The transected ventral penile urethral plate and to strip the ventral fibrous tissue were needed in correction of chordee of penis.The patients in group A were underwent the second urethroplasty with urethral plate reconstruction procedure 6-12 months later.In group B, 40 cases,including penoscrotal type in 17 cases, perineal type in 23 cases, who underwent one stage operation in the correction of chordee of penis, only with tubularized preputial island flap forming the part of the urethra.The patients in group B were underwent the second urethroplasty 6 ~12 months later.Results Patients were followed up for 1 to 5 years, mean 3.5 years.No recurrence of penis chordee was noticed.In group A, 6 cases (14.3%) had postoperative fistula.The second fistula repairing was perform 6 to 12 months after the second stage operation.However, still 3 cases were noticed the fistula recurrence, which was cured after the fourth operation.In group B, 3 cases (7.5%) developed fistula, which appeared in the second urethroplasty (P<0.01).They were all treated after the second repairing procedure.In group A, 4 cases were noticed urethral stricture, the urethral stricture rate was 9.5%.The stricture occurred 1 to 3 months after the second operation.After dilation and indwelling catheter, 3 cases resolved the problem. Another case still found the recurrence after 2 months, which the one stage urethral plication and second urethral reconstruction were considered to treat this patient.In group B, 1 cases of urethral stricture, the urethral stricture rate was 2.5%(P<0.01).After dilation and indwelling catheter, this case resolved the problem.In group A, 3 cases had urethral diverticulum, which occurred at a rate of 7.1%, whereas without urethral diverticulum occurred in group B (P<0.01).Those patient with urethral diverticulum accepted the diverticulum removing procedure 3 to 6 months after the second stage procedure.One case was found the urethral fistula, which was treated one year later.The success rate of operation was 69.0%in group A, the success rate of the operation was 90.0%in group B.The difference of the success rate between two groups was statistically significant ( P <0.01 ) . Conclusions With respect to two-stage urethral plate reconstruction procedure in treatment of severe hypospadias, there were the low complication rates of postoperative urinary fistula, urethral stricture and diverticulum in two-stage tubularized transverse preputial island flap procedure.Urethral meatus could be done at the glans of the penis.In addition, the two-stage tubularized transverse preputial island flap procedure provides a good opportunity to practice to master complex hypospadias operation.

Objective To discuss the management of the congenital vesicoureteral junction obstruction (UVJO). Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed of patients who underwent ureteral reimplantation due to UVJO between 2003 and 2008. Of the 73 patients with 83 ureters (male 49 and female 24, age range 8 months to 13 years, median 41 months). Forty-one cases were on the left, 22 were on the right and 10 were bilateral obstruction. The most common presenting symptoms were intermittent abdominal pain and urinary infection. All patients were evaluated preoperatively by ultrasound, voiding cystourethrogram, intravenous pyelogram and diagnosed as UVJO. Reimplantation was done by the Cohen technique in all patients. Results Follow-up of 46 patients ranged 0.5-3.5 years postoperatively, including ultrasound, voiding cystourethrogram, intravenous pyelogram. Hydronephrosis improve in 41 patients, had no change in 5 ureters. Conclusions Symptomatic children or advanced hydroureteronephrosis are definite indication for surgical treatment of UVJO patients. Surgical management could be effective for most of patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of nephroblastomatosis (Nbm) combined with Wilms'tumor (WT). Methods Clinical data of six patients treated for WT combined with Nbm in Beijing Children's Hospital from 2006 to 2010 were reviewed retrospectively.The patients'ages ranged from five to 14 months.Two of the patients were female and four were male.The WTs were left-sided in four cases and right-sided in two cases.The Nbms were ipsilateral with WT in three cases,contralateral in two cases and bilateral in one case. The Nbms were single In three cases and multiple in three cases.WTs were all single and the maximum diameter was 3,4,8,10,11,and 12 cm respectively.Two paitents underwent nephrectomy.Nephron sparing surgery and upper and lower pole nodule biopsy was conducted in two cases,Nephrectomy and contralateral nephron sparing surgery was conducted in an additional two cases.Adjuvant chemotherapy included vincristine,actinomycin and doxorubicin. Results One patient had tumor recurrence 33 months after a 15 month regimen of postoperative chemotherapy. One patient had tumor recurrence and died after nephron sparing surgery 5 months after a 11 month regimen of chemotherapy.Four patients underwent 6 months of chemotherapy,and it was 9,12,and 21 months respectively after stop of chemotherapy.Another patient was still in chemotherapy. Conclusions Nbm is a pre-neoplastic proliferative process with high risk of developing WT.Chemotherapy may reduce the rate of Nbm malignancy.If Nbm is malignant or chemotherapy is invalid,nephron sparing surgery is recommended.

Objective To evaluate the long-term functional results, complications and patient's satisfaction level in patients performed augmented enterocystoplasty and continent urinary diversion using the appendix. Methods From 1999 to 2005, there were 22 children (12 males and 10 females) underwent augmented enterocystoplasty and continent urinary diversion using the appendix. Surgical results were reviewed retrospectively. There were 11 eases with bladder and urethra dysfunction attributed to neurogenic bladder, 2 cases with complex genitourinary malformation associated with an imperforated anus, 2 cases with exstrophy-epispadias complex, 2 cases with posterior urethral valves, 3 cases with failed urethrovaginal fistula repair and 2 epispadias cases with post failure of Young-Dees- Leadbetter bladder neck reconstruction. Upper urinary tract dilatation and hydroureteronephrosis were found in 17 eases (28 units), including grade Ⅱ-Ⅴ vesicoureteral reflux in 15 children (24 units). Simultaneous procedures included ureteral reimplantation in 15 cases and bladder neck closure in 14 cases. The appendix was used as the catheterizable conduit placed in the right lower abdomen and clean intermittent catheterization was performed in all patients. Outcomes were assessed by urodynamic study, IVU, ultrasound, voiding cystourethrography, BUN, Cr and electrolyte test. Results Mean follow-up was 3.6 years, ranging from 1.5-6 years. Complications included stomal stenosis requiring dilatation in 2 cases and leakage in 2 cases without bladder neck closure and 1 case required surgical revision. All patients achieved excellent stomal continence. No metabolic acidosis and bladder stone was noted. Upper urinary tract impairment had not worsened in all patients. Conclusion Augmented enterocystoplasty and continent urinary diversion using the appendix are associated with high continence, compliance and satisfaction rate and a low complication rate in the treatment of pediatric patients with disorders related to bladder and urethral dysfunction.

Objective:To observe the influence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (NOX) 4 inhibitors on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells induced by bevacizumab.Methods:The cultured ARPE-19 cells were divided into blank control group, bevacizumab group, bevacizumab+ VAS2870 group and bevacizumab+ GKT137831 group.Cells were cultured with 0.25 g/L bevacizumab, 0.25 g/L bevacizumab plus 3 μmol/L VAS2870 (a NOX4 inhibitor), 0.25 g/L bevaczumab plus 20 μmol/L GKT137831 (a NOX4 inhibitor) for 72 hours according to grouping.No intervention was administered to the blank control group.The mRNA and protein expression levels of NOX4 and EMT markers including fibronectin (FN), vimentin, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and tight junction related protein zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) were measured by real-time PCR and Western blot assay, and the expression levels in different intervention groups were compared.The expressions of NOX4 and EMT markers were verified by immunofluorescence staining.Results:There were statistically significant differences in the relative mRNA and protein expression levels of FN, vimentin, α-SMA, ZO-1 and NOX4 among blank control group, bevacizumab group, bevacizumab+ VAS2870 group and bevacizumab+ GKT137831 group (mRNA: F=97.07, 195.40, 722.40, 38.56, 70.81; all at P<0.001.Protein: F=23.09, 64.58, 58.19, 26.97, 63.19; all at P<0.001). The relative mRNA and protein expression levels of FN, vimentin, α-SMA and NOX4 were significantly higher and the relative mRNA and protein expression level of ZO-1 was significantly lower in bevacizumab group than those in blank control group (all at P<0.05). The relative mRNA and protein expression levels of FN, vimentin, α-SMA and NOX4 were significantly lower and the relative mRNA and protein expression levels of ZO-1 were significantly higher in bevacizumab+ VAS2870 and bevacizumab+ GKT137831 groups than those in bevacizumab group (all at P<0.05). The immunofluorescence intensity of FN, vimentin and α-SMA was stronger and the immunofluorescence intensity of ZO-1 was weaker in bevacizumab group than blank control group.The immunofluorescence intensity of FN, vimentin and α-SMA were weaker and the immunofluorescence intensity of ZO-1 was stronger in bevacizumab+ VAS2870 group and bevacizumab+ GKT137831 group than those in bevacizumab group. Conclusions:NOX4 is involved in the bevacizumab-induced EMT of human RPE cells, the degree of which can be reduced by NOX4 inhibitors.
