Objective To systematically review the risks and effectiveness of combined caudate lobectomy in Klatskin tumor.Methods A systematic literature search was conducted on PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Scopus,CNKI databases and Chinese Bio Medical Literature (CBM).A systematic review and meta-analysis of the current literatures were conducted based on the PRISMA guideline.Odds ratios were calculated using the Mantel-Haenszel method.The primary outcome variables included safety,effectiveness of combined caudate lobectomy and its impact on long-term survival.Results Nine out of 312 articles were included.Results showed caudate lobectomy did not increase the incidence of postoperative complications (OR ＝ 1.15；95 ％ CI 0.74-1.81；P ＞ 0.05),but improved R0 resection rate (OR ＝ 4.81；95 ％ CI 2.72 ～ 8.53；P ＜ 0.01) and long-term survival in these patients (OR ＝ 0.20；95％ CI 0.11 ～ 0.39；P ＜0.01).Conclusion Combined caudate lobe resection is a safe and effective treatment for Klatskin tumor.

Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH) is a common disease featured by acute hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction(HPV) and chronic hypoxic pulmonary vascular remolding(HPVR) leading to the sustained increasing of pulmonary artery pressure.There are many mediators involved in the HPH but none can illustrate it successfully.Primary work has found 15-lipoxygenase(15-LO) and its catalyzed production 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid(15-HETE)(from arachidonic acid) are up-regulated in pulmonary vascular when exprosed to hypoxia.And it has been found 15-LO/15-HETE involved in many processes of both the HPV and HPVR,indicating 15-LO/15-HETE may be an important mediator of HPH.Advances research on 15-LO/15-HETE may illustrate the mechanism of HPH,and will give some message in looking for a potential clinical target of HPH.

Objective To analyze and solve the difficulties in rapidly expanding the mobile field hospital in earthquake relief mission.Methods Aimed at the difficulties in the speed,advance men were sent out before the expansion.Then the personnel were regrouped in the proceeding of the expansion,and the vehicles entered the district according to the predefined area and order.Results The expanding speed was raised.Conclusion The scheme meets the requirements of the first aid in the mobile field hospital.

Objective To discuss the use management of both war and peace time for medical equipment in field clinics. Methods Medical equipment was sent to different departments which are personal management. Results The usage management can improve the capacity of using and maintaining of medical equipments. Conclusion The management method improves field medical treatment ability of field clinics and adapts the usage management of medical equipments in field clinics.

[Objective]To investigate the capability of synthesis BMP-2-derived peptide on osteogenic induction in bone marrow stem cells(BMSEs),and to evaluate the osteoinductivity of BMP-2-derived peptide in vitro.[Method]After segregating and cultivating four weeks Wistar rats marrow stromal cells in induction group were induced by osteogenasis medium containing 200 gg/ml BMP-2-derived peptide,and in non-inductional group BMSCs were still culture with DMEM medium.Following continue culture for 2~4 weeks,cells film preparation,alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium deposition were measured.Type I collagen(CoM)and osteopontin(OPN)mRNA expression were measured using real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(FQ-PCR)technique.The capability of synthesis BMP-2-derived peptide on osteogenic induction of BMSCs was investigated.[Result]After inductived with BMP-2-derived peptide.BMSCs cultured survived well greatly changed in cell morphology,and showed a biological and morphologie characteristics similar to those of osteoblasts.The lever of alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium deposition increased.Col-Ⅰand OPN mRNA were expressed at higher level.In non-inductional group no conspicuous osteogenic induction was shown.[Conclusion]BMP-2-derived peptide can induce BMSCs to differentiate into osteoblasts.It has the similar capacity of osteogenic induction as nature BMP-2,so BMP-2-derived peptide is an ideal cell agent for bone tissue engineering,and can be available widely.

Objective To evaluate hepatic toxicity of arsenic trioxide(As 2O 3) on rabbits with hepatic Vx-2 carcinoma by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), and its clinical signification. Methods New Zealand rabbits with hepatic Vx-2 carcinoma were managed with normal saline (experimental group 1), normal saline plus lipiodol (experimental group 2), and As 2O 3 plus lipiodol (experimental group 3) respectively by TACE once, whereas experimental group 4 was treated with As 2O 3 by transcatheter arterial infusion(TAI) for 7 days consecutively. The morphological changes of the tumor adjancent hepatic tissue were observed under light microscope and transmission electron microscope. The hepatic function of the rabbits was also determined. Results The hepatic cells of the rabbits in the experimental groups 2 and 3 were injuried in various degrees, but the injury extent was smaller than that in the experimental group 4 (P

Objective To study time-dependent degradation of DNA in lymphocytes in the human bloodstain in order to estimate aging of bloodstain.Methods Lymphocytes were isolated from the human bloodstain placed under room temperature and were analyzed by single-cell gel electrophoresis(SCGE).The percentage of DNA-degraded lymphocytes were calculated in the cloodstain placed at different time intervals from 0 to 72h under fluorescent microscope connected with auto-analysis-image system.Results The percentage of DNA degraded lymphocytes was closely correlated with time lapse within 72h.A regression equation was formulated with R=0.9522(P

Forty patients with pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma treated from 1971 to 1999 in General itospital of PLA were analyzed retrospectively for clinical and pathological features,and image characteristics. The results showed that 60%(24 of 40) of patients were middle aged or elderly women,and 40% (16 of 40) of patients had symptoms.On chest radiography,the tumor presented as a round or nearly round nodule or mass with sharp and smooth margin in 37 cases(92 5%).All patients received operation without complication or mortality.Immunohistochemical findings indicated that the tumor cells were positive for neuroendocrine markers,and neurosecretory granules were found in tumor cells by electron microscopy.There was no recurrence or metastasis at the follow up. It suggested that pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma is a benign neuroendocrine tumor that has a good prognosis if it is treated by operation.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of primary retroperitoneal tumors(PRPT) and to improve the diagnosis and treatment of these tumors.Methods The clinical characteristics, surgical treatment and prognosis in 352 cases of primary retroperitoneal tumors were retrospectively studied, and the factors affecting postoperative recurrence were also investigated. Results The most common clinical manifestations in 352 cases of PRPT included abdominal mass,abdominal pain,abdominal distention, and lumbar pain. The size of the majority of PRPTs was large, and pathological patterns of them were varied. Urinary system, digestive system and large vessels were often involved. The resection rate was 87.99%. Removal of the involving organs or vessels were often necessary to achieve a complete resection of the tumor. The nature of the tumor and completeness of tumor were the major risk factors for postoperative recurrence. Conclusion The clinical manifestations, pathological types, involved organs and surgical treatment are complicated in PRPTs. Complete resection is the only effective method for the treatment of PRPTs, and it is one of the major factors in reducing recurrence.
