Objective To evaluate the feasibility and the clinical value of extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in treatment of localized prostate cancer.Methods Clinical data of 26 patients with localized prostate cancer treated with extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were pathologic diagnosed with prostate cancer by preoperative prostate biopsy or transurethral resection of prostate surgery.Gleason grade was from 6-8.Results Twenty-six operations were successfully accomplished ,without converting to open approach.The operative time was 120-270 min(mean was 165 min) ,the intraoperative blood loss was 180-650 ml (mean was 320 ml) ,indwelling catheter time 12-19 d (mean was 14 d).There were 6 cases with little uroclepsia, satisfactory with urination after contract urethral sphincter for 1-3 Months.Pathologically confirmed all prostate cancer;2 cases of positive margins after surgery plus endocrine therapy.All the cases were followed up from 2 to 36 months.The biochemical recurrence was 5 cases who had undergone endocrine therapy.Conclusion Extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is a safe and feasible procedure with little trauma, small bleeding and fast recovery which is well worth popularizing.Replace open surgery may become frist choice therapeutic method for localized prostate cancer.

Purpose To study the expression of HK2 in human prostate cancer (PCa) tissues and its effect on malignant phenotype of prostate cancer cells.Methods HK2 expression in PCa tissues was determined by microarray database and immunohistochemical staining.Subsequently,the change of cellular phenotype was detected by glycometabolism kit,CCK-8 kit,and flow cytometry after HK2 knockdown.Results HK2 expression was elevated followed by prostate cancer development.HK2 depletion inhibited cellular proliferation and aerobic glycolysis,and increased the ratio of early apoptosis.Conclusion HK2 expression increases in the process of PCa malignant progression.It plays a critical role in cellular proliferation,glycometabolism,and apoptosis,the mechanism of which needs further exploration.

Objective To investigate the application value of breast scale membrane marking method to locate breast tumor lesion in neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Methods Before neoadjuvant chemotherapy for 120 cases of breast cancer,adopt scale membrane marking method was used to mark the position and boundaries of breast tumor lesion in the mean time.For non-protuberant breast tumor lesion,scale membrane was adhered directly to the breast and positive mark was made.For tumor lesion with vague boundaries,its boundaries was defined under the direction of ultrasound.For protuberant breast tumor lesion,scale membrane was only adhered to normal mammary skin beyond the tumor lesion and reverse mark was made.After two courses of treatment of TEC scheme,mark was made again and combined with ultrasound,molybdenum target and MRI results to comprehensive judgment of clinical curative efficacy so as to decide whether operation or change to TP scheme for continuous chemotherapy.Before operation,the first marking results were reset and then operation was conducted according to the position and boundaries of the marked tumor lesion.Results There were 26 cases of complete remission,76 cases of partial remission,10 cases of stabile disease and 8 cases of progressive desease.According to mark by scale membrane,breast conserving operations were conducted in 24 cases of complete remission and in 18 cases of partial remission according to position+ boundaries of the tumor lesion and tumor lesion position+ 1.5-2.0 cm beyond the original boundaries of tumor lesion marked by scale membrane,respectively.The simplified radical mastectomy was conducted in other 78 cases according to boundaries of the tumor lesion marked by scale membrane,in which 13 cases had insufficient locally advanced skin edges and adopted abdominal full-thickness free skin flap to cover the wound.Conclusion Tumor lesion location in neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer and scale membrane positioning method have the advantage of precision and non-invasion,which effectively save normal breat tissues and skin around tumor lesion with high patient compliance and tremendously outmatches traditional coordinate method,body surface tattoo method and mental marker method.Scale membrane marking method is easy to be operated with low cost,which is convenient for popularization and generalization.

OBJECTIVETo prepare the low molecular weight chitosan (LMWC) and establish the method for quality control.

METHODUse enzymatic degradation to prepare LMWC with chitosan, and separate by ultrafiltration; the molecular weight and purity were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and colorimetry respectively.

RESULTLMWC was prepared by control the hours of enzymatic degradation and ultrafiltered through filter with cutoff molecular of 10K Dalton and 50 K dalton; the average molecular weight was 20 K dalton and the purity was (96.60 +/- 1.56)%.

CONCLUSIONThe condition of enzymatic degradation is geniality and easy to control, LMWCs with different molecular weight can separate by ultrafiltration efficiently; the quality of LMWC can control with gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and colorimetry.

There is controversy regarding the roles of Ureaplasma urealyticum (U. urealyticum) colonization in the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). This study explored the association between U. urealyticum and bronchopulmonary dysplasia at 36 weeks post-menstrual age (BPD36). Studies published before December 31, 2013 were searched from Medline, Embase, Ovid, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases, with the terms "Ureaplasma urealyticum", "chronic lung disease", or "BPD36" used, and English language as a limit. The association between U. urealyticum colonization and BPD36 was analyzed with RevMan 4.2.10 software, using the odds ratio (OR) and relative risk (RR) for dichotomous variables. Out of the enrolled 81 studies, 11 investigated the BPD36 in total 1193 infants. Pooled studies showed no association between U. urealyticum colonization and subsequent development of BPD36, with the OR and RR being 1.03 (95% CI=0.78-1.37; P=0.84) and 1.01 (95% CI= 0.88-1.16, P=0.84), respectively. These findings indicated no association between U. urealyticum colonization and the development of BPD36.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of NADPH oxidases Nox2 and Nox4 in mouse colitis. Methods Mouse colitis model was established by using six-to-eight-week-old 129S /SV mice. Mice were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group,1. 5％ dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) group and 3. 0％ DSS group (n = 10 for each group). All of them were fed for 7 days to adapt to the environment. After then,the control group was given drinking water only,colitis was induced by giving drinking water consisted of 1. 5％ DSS or 3. 0％ DSS for 6 days. Weight loss,disease activity index (DAI) and histology were used to quantify the severity of colon inflammation. Oxidative stress indicator,malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum was measured by biochemical methods. The mRNA levels of pro-inflammation cytokines (IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α) were quantified by real-time PCR. The protein and mRNA expression of Nox2 and Nox4 in colon tissue of mice was evaluated by immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR,respectively. Results There was no colitis in the control group,while mild and severe enteritis was found in mice in the 1. 5％ DSS group and 3. 0％ DSS group,respectively. The number of goblet cells was decreased significantly in the 1. 5％ DSS group than that of control group (P < 0. 05),and further reduced in the 3. 0％ DSS group (P < 0. 05). MDA was enhanced along with the increased concentration of DSS (P < 0. 05 for both). The expression of Nox2 and Nox4 protein and mRNA was different with the severity of inflammation. The expression of protein and mRNA of both Nox2 and Nox4 were increased in 1. 5％ DSS group compared with the control group (P < 0. 05),and further reduced in the 3. 0％ DSS group (P < 0. 05). Nox2 mostly expressed in the phagocytes and neutrophils; Nox4 mostly expressed in the neutrophils and lymphocytes. Conclusion Nox2 and Nox4 play an important role in the occurrence of mouse colitis.
