Objective To discuss the clinical effect and safety of transurethral holmium laser resection of bladder tumors.Methods A total of 20 patients with bladder tumors(stage Ta～T2a)was treated by holmium laser resection transurethrally.There were 17 patients with primary tumor and 3 patients with recurrent tumor.The laser power was set at 15～40 W.Small lesions were vaporized directly,while large ones(more than 1.0 cm in diameter and with broad pedicels)were incised from the pedicel,with neighboring tissues 1～2 cm in extent vaporized and cauterized.Results The tumors were removed on one session in all the 20 patients.The operation time was 10～70 min(mean,30 min).No complications such as obturator nerve reflex,bladder perforation,or overhydration occurred.No blood transfusion was required.The postoperative catheterization time was 1～5 days(mean,3 days).No recurrence was found during follow-up examinations for 3 months in 16 patients and 6 months in 4 patients(mean,3.6 months).Conclusions Transurethral holmium laser resection of bladder tumors is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of bladder tumors.

Objective To study the effect of behavioral therapy combined with Paroxetine in the treatment of overactive bladder accompanied by depression and anxiety.Methods Over the past two years,a total of 69 cases of patients with overactive bladder accompanied by depression and anxiety were diagnosed by outpatient,they were divided into experimental group (n=33)and control group(n=36).The experimental group were given behavior therapy and Paroxetine in the treatment of anxiety,depression,while the control group were given behavior therapy.Then the overactive bladder symptom score(OABSS),urgency score,SDS,SAS score before and after treatment of the two groups of patients were statistically analyzed.Results (1)The OABSS score ((3.30± 1.01) vs (7.51 ± 0.69)),urgency score((2.60±0.51) vs (3.93±0.69)),SDS score((43.1±6.2) vs (66.4±4.7)) and SAS score ((41.9±0.6) vs (61.4±3.9)) decreased after treatment of the experimental group.There were statistically significant compared with before treatment(t=17.8773,8.9045,17.2039,16.0273,all P＜0.01).(2) The OABSS score,urgency score decreased after treatment of the control group.There were statistically significant compared with before treatment (t=6.1926,6.3483;both P＜0.01).SDS,SAS score before and after treatment of the control group were not statistically significant (t=1.3105,0.5852,bothP＞0.05) (3) The OABSS score,urgency score,of the experimental group were more depressed than the control group,which were statistically significant (t =3.3830,3.6391,both P＜0.01).Conclusion For overactive bladder patients with anxiety and depression,behavioral therapy combined with Paroxetine is better than behavioral therapy alone.

OBJECTIVETo assess the feasibility and safety of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RLRP) in the treatment of prostate cancer.

METHODSUsing the da Vinci robot surgical system, we performed RLRP for 34 patients with localized prostate cancer and analyzed the intraoperative and follow-up data.

RESULTSThe procedures were performed successfully in all the patients, with the mean operation time of 198 min (range 135-340 min), average blood loss of 257 ml (range 50-700 ml), and 1 case of blood transfusion, but no postoperative complications. Three cases had positive surgical margins. Postoperative examination at 4 weeks showed PSA > 0.2 microg/L in 2 cases, suggestive of residual tumor, for which maximal androgen block therapy was administered. The other 32 patients were followed up for 3-10 (mean 7.5) months, during which the average level of serum tPSA remained < 0.2 microg/L. Urinary continence was found in 94% (32/34) and 97% (33/34) of the patients at 3 and 6 months, respectively, of whom 77% (26/34) and 88% (30/34) had no urinary leakage (0 pad per day).

CONCLUSIONRLRP, with its advantages of less perioperative blood loss, low rate of positive margin, and good urinary continence, is a safe and effective surgical option for the treatment of prostate cancer.

BACKGROUND: Changes of elastic fibers in middle cerebral artery(MCA)is close related withthe aged cerebrovascular disease.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of elastic fibers of MCA in different aging rats.DESIGN: A descriptive and controlled study based on experimental animals.SETTING: Department of anatomy and central laboratory in a university.MATERIALS: Totally 36 healthy Wistar rats with either gender, weighing 200 - 280 g, were selected from the Animal Institute of the third medical military university of Chongqing[certification SCXX (army) 2002-007].INTERVENTIONS: Changes of elastic fibers of MCA of different aging rats were observed with light microscope, transmission electron microscope and image analysis system. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①) Major outcome: changes of elastic lamella in MCA of different aging rats; ②) Secondary outcome: ultramicrostructural changes of internal lamella under the transmission electron microscope. RESULTS: With the increase of age, the folded extent and quantity of internal elastic lamella were decreased, and the content of elastic fibers were also decreased significantly( P ＜ 0.01 ). However, the ratio of collagen fibers to elastic fibers was increased significantly( P ＜ 0.01 ) . In the aging group above 24 months, the internal elastic lamina thinned, delaminated and disrupted, and the lipid deposited in it. Endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells passed through the internal elastic lamina. CONCLUSION: Changes of elastic fibers may be related with the increased susceptibility to the cerebrovascular disease in aged people.

BACKGROUND: Results from clinical trials suggested that clopidogrel and ticlopidine had side effects of granulopenia, and aspirin could inhibit endothelial progenitor cell proliferation. There is no report of effects of these drugs on human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) in stem cell transplantation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of antiplatelet drugs including clopidogrel, ticlopidine and aspirin on hBMSC proliferation and secretion. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The cytology in vitro observation was performed at the Laboratory of Toxicology, Shanghai Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention from March to December 2006.MATERIALS: The second passage of hBMSCs was kindly donated from Shanghai Tissue Engineering Research & Development Center, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital. Clopidogrel (Lot number J20040006) and ticlopidine (Lot number H19980186) were obtained from Hangzhou Sanofi-Synthelabo Minsheng Pharmaceutical CO., Ltd. Aspirin (Lot number 20050059) was obtained from Bayer Vital GmbH. METHODS: The standard culture medium consisted of DMEM-LG, 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin. After being cultured in vitro expanded out to passage 6, hBMSCs were treated with antiplatelet drugs of different concentrations and compared with control group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cell proliferation was assessed by 3- (4, 5-dimethylthiazol -2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) colorimetric assay, level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) of culture medium was detected by enzyme-linked immunoadsordent assay (ELISA), and surface antigens of hBMSCs were analyzed by the flow cytometry. RESULTS: A570 values of hBMSCs treated by clopidogrel or ticlopidine of 0.02,0.1,0.4,2,10,40 μmol/L were higher than control group (P < 0.01), while A570 values of aspirin group of 60, 600, 2 000 μmol/L were lower than control group(P < 0.05). Antiplatelet drugs had no obvious effect on cell surface antigens(CD34, CD105, CD106)expressed by hBMSCs. Treated by high dose clopidogrel or ticlopidine (40 μmol/L), VEGF level from hMSCs was lower than that of control group(P < 0.01), but VEGF level of low dose (0.02 μmol/L) ticlopidine group was higher than control group(P < 0.01), and there was no significantly difference of VEGF level among low dose clopidogrel group (0.02 μmol/L), aspirin group (5, 2 000 μmol/L), and control group(P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Clopidogrel and ticlopidine improve proliferation of hBMSCs, but aspirin inhibits proliferation of hBMSCs. High dose of clopidogrel and ticlopidine suppress VEGF secretion of hBMSCs, while low dose of ticlopidine promote it. Antiplatelet drugs have no obvious effect on hBMSCs differentiation.
