Objective To explore the efficacy of different bulbourethral sling procedures in the treatment of male acquired urinary incontinence.Methods A retrospective study of 105 patients with acquired urinary incontinence was performed.The patients underwent 3 different bulbourethral sling procedures under urodynamic monitoring between October 2000 and June 2013.Mean age was 54 years (range 15-81).Urinary incontinence was secondary to post-prostatectomy in 70 patients and posterior urethroplasty in 35.Preoperatively,10 patients were completely urinary incontinence and 95 patients were stress urinary incontinence.Mean duration of urinary incontinence was 3 years (1-12).The surgical techniques were composite device suspension in 54 patients,pedicled rectus abdominalis muscle and fascial flaps suspension in 10 and transobturator sling in 41.Results The patients were followed up for 3-128 months (mean 54 months).The urethral catheter was left in situ for 5-7 days in 103 patients.Of the 103 patients,5 patients were difficulty in voiding but corrected by indwelling of urethral tube for another 1 week in 4 patients and transurethral bladder neck resecting in 1.In the remainder 2 patients,the maximum urethral pressure was 110 and 158 cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0.098 kPa) at the end of surgery and both patients were able to void on day 14 and 21 respectively and achieved complete continence.In this study,complete continence was achieved with good voiding in 74 patients (70.5％),completed control of urination rate was 81,4％ (57/70) in group of prostate and 48.6％ (17/35) in group of posterior urethroplasty.Twenty-six patients were improved and 5 patients were failed.Conclusion Bulbourethral sling procedure under urodynamic monitoring is an effective option in the treatment of male acquired urinary incontinence,especially for patients of incontinence of post-prostatectomy.

Objective The therapeutic effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on the collageninduced arthritis model (CIA) was observed and its immunological mechanism was analyzed. Methods EGCG was administered to CIA mice and PBS was admitted as negative control. The severity of CIA was evaluated by clinical scores and histopathological assessment (H-E staining). Immunological mechanisms inv-suppressive effect on IL-17 secretion of CD4+T cells (EGCG group: 0.41%; PBS group: 4.05% ) and inhibitive activity of C Ⅱ -reactive splenocytes proliferation. There was statistical significant difference between IKB expression and down-regulate phosphorylated IKB expression in lymph node cells of CIA mice.Conclusion EGCG can significantly ameliorate the severity of CIA. The therapeutic mechanisms may be related to inhibition of C Ⅱ -reactive splenocyte proliferation and IL-17 secretion and via inhibiting the activity of NF-κB by inducing the expression of IKB and by suppressing the expression of phosphorylated IKB in CIA mice.

Objective To evaluate the early change of left ventricular (LV) systolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) by ultrasound speckle tracking imaging. Methods Ninety-five subjects were included:40 T2DM with normal LV ejection fraction (LVEF≥50% ,group A),20 T2DM with abnormal LVEF (LVEF<550 %) (group B), and 35 normal controls. Two-dimensional strain images were acquired from LV short-axis view. LV peak systolic global and segmental radial strain and circumferential strain at the levels of mitral annulus, papillary muscle and apex, and LV systolic global and segmental rotation at the levels of mitral annulus and apex and LV peak systolic global twist were assessed. Results In group A, compared with control group, LV peak systolic radial strain parameters were not significant difference (P >0.05), peak systolic circumferential strain of part segments, average peak strain of each plane and global strain were reduced (P <50.05～0.001) ,and LV peak systolic rotation of all apical segments, peak systolic global rotation at the levels of mitral annulus and apex,and peak systolic global twist were significantly increased (P <0.05～0.001). Compared with control group and group A,all LV systolic radial strain and circumferential strain parameters, LV systolic global and segmental rotation and peak systolic global twist in group B were significantly reduced (P <0.05 ～ 0.001). Conclusions Speckle tracking imaging could be used to evaluate the early change of LV torsional deformation and LV systolic function in T2DM.

Objective To investigate the genotype of Trichophyton rubrum isolated from children and adults with dermatophytosis,and to explore the relationship between the genotype and location of lesions as well as drug susceptability of T.rubrum.Methods Dermatophytes were isolated from 67 children and 88 adults who had been diagnosed with dermatophytosis by microscopy and fongal culture.DNA was extracted from the clinical isolates of T. mbrum and random amplification of polymorphic DNA(RAPD)assay was performed with two random primers.i.e.,OPA11 5'ACCCGACCTC3'and OPD18 5'GAGAGCC AAC3',respectively.PCR products were subjected to electrophoresis to identify the genotypes of clinical isolates.Broth microdilution method was applied to assess the in vitro susceptibility of T. rubrum isolates to eight antifungal agents:fluconazole,itraconazole,terbinafine,ketoconazole,liranaflate,butenafine,econazole and bifonazole.Results T. rubrum was isolated from 47 children and 62 adults with dermatophytosis.RAPD assay yielded clear and stable DNA band profile.With primer OPA 11,these T.rubrum isolates were classified into 4 genotypes,i.e.,Ⅰ a,Ⅱ a,Ⅲa and Ⅳa.Both type Ⅰ a and Ⅲa represented 41.94%of the T. rubrmn isolates from adults,while type Ⅰa 65.96%of those from children;there was a significant difference in the genotype distribution between the two groups(P＜0.05).Also,the genotype distilbution was statistically different for tinea corporis and tinea pedis(P＜0.01,＜0.05 respectively)between adults and children,however,no significant difierence was observed for onychomycosis and tinea cruris(both P＞0.05).In vitro susceptibility test showed that all antifungal agents were effective against these T. rubrum isolates.Among these antifungals,terbinafine had the highest efficacy,and fluconazole exhibited the lowest effect against these isolates.Moreover,a higher efficacy was observed for ketoconazole and fluconazole against T. rubrum of type Ⅰ a than against other types of T. rubrum,and for bifonazole against T. rubrum isolates of type Ⅱ a than against other types.while the efficacy of itraconazole was lower against T. rubmm isolates of type Ⅲ a than against other types.Conclusions T. rubrum is the main pathogenic microorganism in adults and children with dermatophytosis.In adults,Ⅰ a and Ⅲ a are the predominate types of T. rubrum associated with dermatophytosis,while Ⅰ a is the common type in children.All the 8 antifungals tested have a good efficacy for various genotypes of T. rubrum,whereas the efficacy of fluconazole,itraconazole,kctoconazole,terbinafine and bifonazole varies with the genotypes of T. rubrum.
