Objective To explore the relationship between galactose-induced apoptosis of lens epithelial cells and cataractogenesis.Methods Galactose was injected retrobulbarly into Wistar rats.The opacity of lens was examined by slit lamp.The expression of C-MYC was measured by flow cytometer.The apoptosis of lens epithelial cells was observed by TUNEL techniques.Results More than 50 percent of lenses were in the Ⅱ stage of cataractogenesis on the(7 d) after galactose induction;Eighty-seven percent of lenses were in the Ⅳ-Ⅴ stage on the(14 d),and 100 percent of lenses were in the Ⅳ-Ⅴ stage on the(24 d).The rate of apoptotic cell on the(7 d) and on the(14 d) after galactose induction was respectively 5.6%～8.4% and 30.2%～41.8%,and 60% apoptotic cells were observed on the(24 d).The levels of C-MYC expression in lens epithelial cells induced by galactose on the(7 d) and(14 d) were higher than that of normal lenses,but the level of C-MYC expression backed to normal level on the(24 d).Conclusion It was suggested that there are some apoptosis of the lens epithelial cells during galactose-induced cataractogenesis and that the apoptosis of the lens epithelial cells might be caused by higher expression of C-MYC.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of transarterial embolization(TAE) for intraperitoneal hemorrhage due to spontaneous rupture in hepato-cellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods 50 cases with ruptured HCC were divided into 4 groups according to the type of their previous treatment:group A,TAE followed by elective hepatectomy 12;Group B,TAE alone 12;Group C,emergency operation 13;Group D,medical conservative management.Results Celiac arterio-graphy done before the present treatment showed extravasation of contrast material in 6(25%) of the 24 patients in group A and B,and hypervascular tumor was observed in the rest.The hemostasis success rate of group A,B and C were 100%,which were much higher than that of group D(40%)(P

Objective To compare curve-tip angiography guide wire (loach guide wire) and ultrasmooth hydrophilic guide wire (zebra guide wire) in selective common bile duct (CBD) cannulation of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Methods A total of 196 patients were randomly assigned to loach guide wire group to receive cannulation guided by loach guide wire first ( n = 98 ) and zebra guide wire group to use zebra guide wire first ( n =98). If cannulation was not successful after 10 minutes, a further attempt was made for an additional 10 minutes using the alternative guide wire. If still not successful after 10 minutes, other cannulation accessories would be used. The primary and overall selective cannulation time, success rate, and post-procedure abdominal pain and serum amylase were assessed. Results The primary success rate of selective CBD cannulation was higher in the loach guide wire group (93.9%) than that in zebra guide wire group (86. 7%, P ＜0. 05), while there was no significant difference in cannulation time between 2 groups (P ＞ 0. 05 ). The cannulation success rate after crossover was higher in loach guide wire group (76. 9% ) than that in zebra guide wire group (0. 0%, P ＜0. 05). There was no significant difference in post-procedure serum amylase or occurrence rate of post ERCP pancreatitis between 2 groups (P ＞ 0. 05 ).Conclusion Loach guide wire is superior to zebra guide wire in ERCP selective CBD cannulation, which can replace zebra guide wire in difficult cannulation.

Background Various studies demonstrated that the apoptosis of lens epithelial cells(LECs) is associated with the overexpression of the c-myc gene in LECs induced by galactose.Inhibiting the abnormal expression of the c-myc gene in LECs is an effective approach to mitigate the pathogenesis and development of cataract.Objective The goal of this study is to investigate the inhibitory effects of c-myc antisense oligodeoxynucleotide(c-myc ASODN) on the apoptosis of LECs in the eye with galactose-induced cataract.Methods Galactose-induced cataract models were established by the retrobulbar injection of 0.2 mL of 20% galactose once per day.Lipo-antisense oligodeoxynucleotide(Lipo-ASODN,0.2 mL) was retrobulbarly injected 4 hours after the injection of galactose at one-day intervals.The animals were sacrificed and lenses were obtained to evaluate the apoptosis of LECs and the effect of c-myc ASODN on LECs apoptosis induced by galactose was examined by TUNEL assay after 7,14 and 24 days.The ultrastructural changes of LECs were examined under the transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Results A significant difference in the apoptotic rate of LECs was found among the 7 day,14 day and 24 day groups(F_(7 days)=3 418.495,P＜0.01;F_(14 days)=1137.555,P＜0.01;F_(24 days)=2198.871,P＜0.01).The apoptotic rate of LECs in the galactose group was markedly higher than that in the normal saline solution group 7 days,14 days and 24 days after the experiment(P＜0.01).The apoptotic rate of LECs in the galactose+lipo+ ASODN group significantly declined in comparison to the galactose group after 7 days,14 days and 24 days(P＜0.05).TUNEL assay showed the condensation,breakage and irregularity of the nuclei of apoptotic cells in the galactose group.The destruction of the ultrastructure of the cells and organelles were observed under the transmission electron microscope.Conclusion Galactose induces apoptosis of LECs in cataractogenesis.C-myc ASODN inhibits apoptosis of LECs induced by galactose.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for precancerous lesions and early cancer at gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) by comparing endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) with ESD.MethodsData of patients with GEJ precancerous lesions or early cancer,who received EMR ( n =51 ) or ESD ( n =28) were reviewed to compared the en bloc resection rate,R0 resection rate,operation time,complication and recurrence rate between 2 methods.ResultsEn blcc resection and R0 resection rates of ESD group (92.9％,78.6％ respectively) were significantly higher than those of EMR group (45.1％,43.1％ respectively).Local recurrence rate in ESD group (3.6％,1/28) was significantly lower than that of EMR group ( 19.6％ ).Complications including perforation,delayed hemorrhage,stricture were not significantly different between EMR and ESD groups.Mean operation time of ESD group (64.3 ±27.1 min) was significantly longer than that of EMR group (27.6 ± 14.1 min)(P ＜0.05).ConclusionESD,with a higher cure rate and en bloc rate and a lower local recurrence rate,is superior to EMR for precancerous lesions and early cancer at GEJ.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of endoscopic resection of giant gastric stromal tumors without explicit evidence of metastases.Methods A total of 12 giant gastric stromal tumors with no evidence of metastases diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and computed tomography (CT) scan were managed by endoscopic resection.Operation time,blood loss and the incidence rate of perforation were recorded respectively.The diagnoses of tissue specimens were made by pathological examination and immunohistochemistry.In order to assess local recurrence and distant metastases,endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound follow-up examinations were performed routinely at 2,6 and 12 months,and the whole abdominal CT scan was also performed at 12 months after operation.Results Endoscopic resections were successfully performed in 10 of 12 cases (83.3％),among which,6 underwent endoscopic submucosal excavation (ESE) without unexpected perforation and 4 endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFR)with intentional perforation.The rate of intentional perforation was 33.3％ (4/12),and all the perforations could be sealed by endoscopic methods.The blood losses were all more than 100 ml,which could be controlled by argon plasma coagulation,electrocoagulation or hemostatic clips.In the 10 encapsulated tumors,8 could be smoothly removed from esophagus,whose long diameter of the minimum cross section was less than 3.5 cm,however,2 tumors whose diameters were larger than 3.5 cm were taken out after segmentation.In the 10 tissue samples,9 were confirmed as low risk GIST,1 larger than 5 cm was pathologically confirmed as high risk GIST.During 1-year follow-up,no local recurrence or peritoneal metastasis was found.2 tumors,larger than 5.0 cm,could not be removed by endoscopic methods due to uncontrolled bleeding.The rate of uncontrolled bleeding was 16.7％ (2/12).The patients were transferred to surgery,and pathologically confirmed as having high risk GIST.Conclusion For low-risk giant gastric stromal tumors whose diameters were less than 5cm without evidence of metastases,endoscopic resection is considered as a safe and effective procedure.Tumors with long diameter of the minimum cross section less than 3.5 cm are more suitable for endoscopic resection,which can be smoothly taken out through cardia.However,for high-risk GIST larger than 5.0 cm,the rate of uncontrolled bleeding is high,so endoscopic resection should be adopted with discretion.
