OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical application value of using needle electrode in transurethral plasmakinetic resection of bladder tumor around ureteral orifice. METHODS: Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 16 cases who had bladder tumors around ureteral orifice and underwent transurethral resection using plasmakinetic needle electrode in Department of Urology, Peking University International Hospital from June 2015 to December 2019. There were nine cases with the tumor of one to two centimeters from the ureteral orifice. The rest of the seven cases had tumor that was within one centimeter from the ureteral orifice, including two cases whose ureteral orifice was invaded by the tumor. All the patients studied were diagnosed before surgery and contraindications were excluded. The plasmakinetic needle electrode was used to treat the tumor with en bloc resection, and all the excised tissue was sent for pathological examination. Intravesical chemotherapy and postoperative follow-ups were performed. Statistical analysis was performed on the operation time, the incidence of obturator nerve reflex, the peri-operative bleeding, the parameters of indwelling ureteral catheter or double-J stent, the incidence of postoperative hydronephrosis, the clinical stage of tumor, and the recurrence rate. RESULTS: The operation was successfully completed for all the sixteen cases. The operation time was 16 to 57 minutes, with an average of (32.6±11.8) minutes. No obvious obturator nerve reflex and perioperative bleeding occurred in all the patients. Ureteral catheters were indwelled prior to the operation of tumor resection in seven cases. Four of the seven cases had the ureteral catheters remained while the rest three were replaced by double-J stent after surgery. Postoperative pathological analysis showed that all the tumors were urothelial carcinoma, including 9 cases of low grade and 7 cases of high grade. Pathological staging: 10 cases were in Ta stage, 5 cases in T1 stage, and 1 case in T2a stage. All tumor bases and lateral margins were negative. All the patients received 3-56 months, with an average of (26.0±18.1) months of follow-up. There was no case of upper urinary tract hydronephrosis or tumor recurrence. CONCLUSION The transurethral plasmakinetic resection of bladder tumor using needle electrode can realize en bloc tumor resection without obturator nerve reflex and reduce the risk of ureteral orifice injury. It is a safe and effective surgical method for treating bladder tumors around the ureteral orifice.

Objective To explore the mechanism of neuropmtective effects of puerarin for the treatment of acute spinal ischenia-reperfusion injury in a rat model.Methods Acute spinal ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced via aortic occlusion in 28 male Sprague-Dawley rats.The animals were randomly divided into four groups,as follows:group negative contrast (NC sham operation),group positive control group (IR+ S ischemia/reperfusion + saline),group puerarin (IR+P ischemia/reperfusion + puerarin),group mscovitine (IR+R ischemia/reperfusion + roscovitine).The motor function,spinal infarction volume,apoptosis indices,and CDK5 and P25 activities were examined.Results Spinal ischemia-reperfusion caused the injury of the spines and was associated with motor deficit,elevation of CDK5 and P25 activities,and increase in the spinal apoptosis and spinal infarction volume.Puerarin improved motor function and decreased apoptosis,spinal infarction volume,and CDK5 and P25 activities.Conclusion The findings of the present study indicated that puerarin treatment-mediated reduction of spinal injury was associated with the inhibition of CDK5 and P25,and that the inhibition was one among the neuroprotective mechanisms of puerarin against acute ischemia/reperfusioninduced spinal injury in rats.

Objective To explore the influencing factors for the purity and viability of primary cultured cortical neurons of rat,and optimize the separating and cultivating conditions of the cortical neurons.Methods The primary cotical neurons were cultured in a serum-free culture system of B27-supplemented neurobasal medium.The differences in purity and viability of primary cultured neurons between embr-yonic rat group and newborn rat [postnatal 24 h and 5 d] group were evaluated by morphology,immunocytochemistry of neuron-specific enolase(NSE) and trypan blue staining.The changes of neurons purity and viability in different trypsin digestion time(0 min,5 min and 15 min) at different environment temperatures(20 ℃ and 30 ℃) were assessed by immunocytochemistry and trypan blue staining.Results The primary cultured neurons from fetal and newborn rats grew well.There was no significant difference in embryonic rat and postnatal 1 d newborn rat group[(91.30?1.03)%,(89.50?1.78)% respectively in purity;and(98.20?0.58)%,(97.10?0.98)% respectively in viability].The neurons from 5-days newborn rat were inferior to that from fetal and 1-day newborn rat in purity and viability[(82.00?1.25)% and(92.87?1.56)% respectively].Shortening operation time and adjusting digestion time according to the environment temperatures could improve neuronal viability:A digestion for 15min at the environment temperature of 20 ℃ or for 5 min at 30 ℃ could acquired cells with higher viability [(98.20?0.58)% and(96.70?0.64)% respectively].Conclusions It is an easy,practical choice to culture priamry cortical neurons from postnatal 1 d newborn rats.Optimizing the separating and cultivating condition(environment temperatures,digest time,et al.) will improve the neurons purity and viability.

There were significant difference of survivin expression in ALL/ANLL patients groups and different WBC groups(P

Objective To observe the change of the level of blood ghrelin in the children with anorexia and its relationship with insulin sensitivity.Methods Height,weight,body mass index(BMI)of 40 children in anorexia group,20 healthy children in control group were measured;the level of blood grelin,insulin and blood glucose were determined;insulin sensitivity index(ISI) was calculated,then the results in both groups were analyzed.Results Levels of height,weight and BMI in anorexia group were significantly lower than those of control group.The ghrelin and ISI levels in anorexia group were significantly higher than those in control group,but the insulin and glucose levels were significantly lower in anorexia group than those in control group,the differences were significant.Ghrelin level showed negative correlation with insulin and blood glucose concentration in both groups and positive correlation with ISI level.Conclusions The decrease of appetite in children with anorexia may not necessarily result from under-secretion of ghrelin.The increase of insulin sensitivity in children with anorexia may be a response to high level of ghrelin secretion.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate clinical significance of waist soft tissue tension detection in treating chronic nonspecific low back pain.

METHODSFrom August 2011 to March 2012,60 patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain were divided into two groups (sliver needle group and TCM fumigation group) according to propotion of 1:1. In sliver needle group, there were 17 males and 13 females aged from 28 to 55 years old with an average age of (45.70 +/- 4.15), treated with sliver needle; In TCM fumigation group,there were 19 males and 11 females aged from 27 to 55 years old with an average age of (43.03 +/- 5.86), treated with TCM fumigation. Changes of force-displacement distance (FDD), specific absorption rate (S) of two groups were observed before treatment, 1 week and 3 months after treatment respectively, VAS scoring and Roland-Morris disability questionnaire (RMDQ) were used to access clinical effects.

RESULTS(1) VAS score of silver needle group was 4.77 +/- 0.78, 1.99 +/- 1.08 and 2.55 +/- 0.94, respectively before treatment, at 1 week and 3 months after treatment,while VAS score in TCM fumigation group were 4.43 +/- 0.61, 2.48 +/- 0.71 and 3.05 +/- 0.86, respectively. VAS score of two groups after treatment were sigificant decrease than that of before treatment (P < 0.05). There was no sigificant differences between two groups before treatment, but sliver needle group performed well in analgesia than TCM fumigation group, and had obvious differences (P < 0.05). RMDQ score of silver needle group was 13.63 +/- 1.96, 5.87 +/- 2.33 and 6.53 +/- 2.89, respectively before treatment, at 1 week and 3 months after treatment, while RMDQ score in TCM fumigation group were 13.40 +/- 2.01, 6.90 +/- 2.31, 9.23 +/- 2.87, respectively. There was no significant differences between two groups before treatment and 1 week after treatment (P > 0.05), and had obvious differences between two groups at 3 months after treatment (P < 0.01). Both groups could obvious improve dysfunction caused by chronic low back pain, and curative effect of sliver needle groups was more endurable. (2) Following-up at 3 months after treatment, FDD of multifidus, erector spinae of effected side and multifidus of healthy in sliver needle group were obvious increased (P < 0.05); In TCM fumigation group, FDD of multifidus and erector spinae on both side were increased at 1 week after treatment (P < 0.05), but had no significant meaning at 3 months after treatment on health side (P>0.05). There was no significant meaning before treatment (P > 0.05), FDD of multifidus, erector spinae of effected side in sliver needle group were obvious increased at 1 week after treatment (P < 0.05); but no obvious meaning on health side. FDD of both side in sliver needle group were obvious increased at 3 months after treatment. (3) There was correlation among differences of FDD in multifidus and erector spinae, VAS score and differences of RMDQ, and Spearman correlation coefficient R was 0.517, 0.811, 0.746 and 0.625; There was correlation between items of soft tissue tension and sympotoms, function and life quality. Conclusion:Soft tissue tension detection can effectively manifest degree of pain and dysfunction of low back, and improve objectivity of therapeutic evaluation for chronic low back pain.

Using the Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus as the indictor bacterium,fourteen antibacterial strains were initially obtained by the bilayer-media screening method from the raw milk samples,and one isolate was found to exhibit the higher antibacterial activity against the indicator. This isolate was further studied on its individual and cultural morphology features,partial physiological and biochemical reaction activities,G+C content,the sequence features of the 16S rDNA and the species-specific N-acetylmuraminidase gene(acmA) ,consequently,it was identified as the Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis strain,named as MB191. An evaluation of the antimicrobial spectra of MB191 was subsequently performed,it showed the remarkable activities against not only the tested Gram-positive bacteria,but also several Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas syringae and P. fluorescens,as well as the yeast Debaryomyces hansenii,which was a distinctive feature that was not reported prior to this study.

·Diabetic Retinopathy ( DR ) has gradually worsening and lingering, which is the leading cause of global young people blindness. With the progression of the disease, patients with diabetes mellitus ( DM) will have different degrees of DR. If you can not prevent and give acute early intervention, once the visual acuity decreased significantly, DR would be difficult to reverse. DR progressively has worsening, the treatment status has no optimistic. Therefore, DR in the early prevention and treatment will be indispensable. This article summarizes some of the early warning of the occurrence and development of biological markers and characteristic indicators in order to provide a basis for the early prevention of DR.
