Objective To assess the value of plug mesh tension free hernia repair in the treatment of abdominal external hernia. Methods 123 tension free repairs of hernia in 115 patients performed in our hospital from April 1988 to May 2000 were retrospectively reviewed. 50 4% (58/115) of cases were complicated by diseases such as cardiopulmonary dysfunction, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, prostate hypertrophy, cirrhotic ascites and thrombocytopenia. Results All patients had healing by first intention with no incisional infection or death , and they were discharged 3～7 days after operation(90% of patients were discharged 3 days after operation).90 4% of patients were followed up with an average of 20 months (1～25 months). There was no recurrence during the follow up.Conclusion Plug mesh tension free repair has the advantages of less trauma, little postoperative discomfort, rapid recovery and low recurrent rate.

Objective To investigate the protein expression of cyclooxygenase(COX)-2 and matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2 and their correlation in human gastric carcinoma.Methods The protein expression of COX-2 and MMP-2 was determined by immunohistochemistry in tumor tissues and adjacent cancerous tissues (3 cm and 6 cm away from tumor margin) of 30 patients with gastric cancer,and in gastric mucosa of 10 healthy individuals.Results Expression of COX-2 was found in cancer cells of 26 out of 30 cases (86.67%),which was significantly higher than that in normal control (0 of 10,P

To clone, express and primarily use human autoantigen Sm D1 in methylotrophic yeast Pichia Pastoris. The gene Sm D1 was cloned by PCR.The PCR product was inserted into the vector pPIC9k. The recombinant plasmid pPIC9k- Sm D1 was transformed into yeast SMD1168 by electroporation. The positive clones were screened in MD plates. The high copy number transformants were rapidly selected by using G418 and were induced by methanol. Supernatants after induction were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and im-munodot. The PCR product was showed about 360 bp in size which was in accordance with predicted. The pPIC9k-Sm D1 showed the same seqencing result with GenBank’s report and restriction enzyme analysis confirmed our prediction. The pPIC9k-Sm D1 positive clone produced an about 16 kD protein which had natural immunogenicity of human autoantigen Sm D1 by SDS-PAGE and immunodot. The sensitivity and specificity of immunodot were 96% and 100%, respectively. The agreement between immunodot and im-munoblot was 98%. Successfully cloning and high-level expression of human autoantigen Sm D1 in methy-lotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris laid a foundation for further research work.

Chronic osteomyelitis is one of the most common disorder in clinic. In recent years due to diabetes, peripheral vascular disease and trauma induced disease increased, the prevalence rate increased. With the development of magnetic resonance imaging and CT imaging technology, it greatly improved the accuracy of clinical diagnosis of chronic osteomyclitis and ability to describe the infection characteristics, and provide a reliable basis for clinical treatment. The current research on chronic osteomyelitis mainly concentrated on the aspects of imaging applications and ways of using antibiotic optimization control inflammation, defect restoration and reconstruction of blood supply and treatment. But the best time to the antibiotic therapy and the use of program is still uncertain, for after debridement, bone grafting time and defect repair function of fast recovery still need further research.

Objective To summarize the clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of autologous urologic neoplasms in renal transplant recipients.Methods A retrospective analysis on the clinical data of 25 renal transplant recipients was done in our center.The onset time of new neoplasms was between 29 to 72 months after transplantation,with an average of 48.2 months.Intermittent hematuria was the first symptom in 23 patients,and the rest two cases were diagnosed through routine examination. The pathological diagnoses of thee cases were renal carcinoma,which were treated by transperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.Eight cases were diagnosed as having renal pelvic tumor,which was treated by radical resection for the renal pelvic carcinoma.Fourteen cases were diagnosed as having bladder cancer,which was treated by transurethral resection of bladder tumor (13 cases) or radical cystectomy (one case).All patients were subjected to surgical treatment.The dosage of MMF,CSA/Tacrolimus was decreased to 1/2-2/3 of their original dosage. Sirolimus was used in place of calcineurin inhibitors in four patients.Immunosuppressive regimes and adjuvant therapy were given after surgery treatment.Results Twenty-five patients were followed up for 12-84 months.Contralateral renal carcinoma combined with lung and chest multiple metastases occurred in one case after radical nephrectomy,who died after targeted therapy 6 months later.Two patients with lymph node metastasis died 14 months and 20 months after surgery respectively.The rest 22 patients were closely followed up,whose creatinine remained 98-163μmol/L.Conclusion More attention should be paid to patients with hematuria after renal transplantation to screen the autologous urinary neoplasms.Patients should be treated with surgical procedures,and immunosuppressive regimens should be adjusted postoperatively.
