Objective A clinical trial of intradiscal injection of hypertonic saline to treat lumbar disc herniation, and observation of its effect, complications and changes in intervertebral disc tissue were performed for clinical application. Methods Discography was performed under local anesthesia, followed by a single injection of 1.0～2.5 ml 10% hypertonic saline. Results 262 cases were included in the study, with 4 years of average follow up. The final outcome ranked excellent in 93 cases and good in 100 cases. As a whole, the effective rate was 75.7% and the improvement rate was 71.5%. The procedure was effective in protrusion and confined extrusion types. 13 cases (6.7%) relapsed after the injection. No complication occurred. 26 cases resorted to surgery because of failure in intradiscal therapy, but no change was found, in the nerve and surrounding tissue of the intervertebral disc attributable to the injection during the surgical operation. The main causes of failure were the marked protrusion or non-contained extrusion, or the combination with spinal canal stenosis. Changes in the nucleus pulposus shown microscopically were similar to those resulted by the action of enzyme injection, but the injury to the disc was much milder.Conclusions Intradiscal therapy with 10% hypertonic saline for lumbar disc herniation is effective, mini-traumatic and safe.

Objective The levels of endothelin-1(ET-1) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)after acute cervical spinal cord injury. Method ET-1 and CGRP were determined by RIA in order to observe the effects of naloxone on levels of ET-1 and CGRP and neuronal death of cervical spinal cord. Result Levels of ET-1 in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)after acute cerical spinal cord injury increased significantly; but the levels of CGRP in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) decreased markedly. The levels of ET-1 in the plasma and cerebropinal fluid(CSF)decreased markedly after the threapy of naloxone; but levels of CGRP in the plama and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)increased sinificantly. Conclusion These deta suggest that the lessening of CGRP and increasing of ET-1 may be some important reson causing death of neuron after acute cervical spinal cord injury, and naloxone can protecet cervical spinal cord neuron by increasing levels of CGRP and decreasing levels of ET-1.

Objective To promote the level of morphological diagnosis and estimate prognosis combining the result of bone marrow histotomy and the swear of 82 cases of malignant hemology disease.

The strategies for automatic extraction of key words from medical news were put forward by adding the MeSH terms into the general classification table in combination with the length of MeSH terms and location-weigh-ted MeSH terms.The key words randomly selected from 100 papers reporting medical news on 10 Websites were in-dexed and verified by machine indexing.The extraction accuracy was 0.34 and the recall rate was 0.30, showing that the strategies can be used for automatic extraction of key words from medical news.

Objective To compare the different expression patterns of survivin and caspase-3 between the larger part and the smaller part of the dissymmetric enlarged prostates in BPH patients, and to clarify the role of apoptosis in BPH etiology. Methods BPH tissues from 25 patients were embedded in paraffin. The specimens constituted of two prostate parts from each patient. One part was from the larger enlarged gland and the other was from the smaller enlarged counterpart. 50 paraf-fin blocks were cut into sections and stained with survivin and caspase-3 polyclonal antibodies against human. All the data was analyzed by SPSS13.0 software. Results Survivin immunoreactivity was localized in prostatic cell nuclei. Survivin expression in larger enlarged parts (22.08±16. 33)0% was significantly higher than the smaller parts (7. 645±5. 45)%(P<0.01). Positive nuclear or cytoplasm staining was also observed in the Caspase-3 immunoreactivity. Caspase-3 expression was higher in smaller enlarged parts (51. 525±27. 27%) than in larger enlarged parts (33. 125±21.01%) (P< 0.01). Survivin expression in larger part of the enlarged prostates was inversely correlated with caspase-3 expression (r=-0. 474, P<0. 05). However, in smaller part of the enlarged prostates, the expression of the two factors had no relation (r=-0. 313,P>0. 05). Conclusions Survivin and caspase-3 expression patterns are different in the two parts of the dissymmetric enlarged prostates. These different patterns indicate apoptosis playing an important role in BPH development.

After the necessity of using medical news information and the advances in its automatic indexing were analyzed, a novel automatic controlled indexing method of medical news text was put forward. The method intro-duced translated MeSH vocabulary as the main indexing words, merging Chinese commonly used word segmentation dictionary, then calculated word frequency for document text which added split token and sorted it, choose top 5 high-frequency words in MeSH vocabulary indexed document after deleting high-frequency words not in MeSH vo-cabulary.

AIM To study the role of survivin on the apoptosis of lung cancer cell line induced bycisplatin (DDP) and etoposide (VP16). METHODS The lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 was chosen in this experiment. The inhibitory effects of chemotherapeutical drugs on A549 cell line were assayed with MTT test. Cultured cells was divided into 3 groups: DDP, VP16 and control. Both DDP and VP16 group were divided into high concentration group and low concentration group, respectively. Expression of survivin gene were detected by reverse transcriptase PCR. Apoptosis was deterinined by flow cytometry. RESULTS Both DDP and VP16 obviously inhibited the lung cancer cell growth with dose and time dependent. Apoptosis and inhibitory rate of survivin gene expression induced by chemotherapeutical drugs was higher than that of control group. The effects also were time dependent. CONCLUSION The inhibition of survivin gene expression may play a critical role on the lung cancer cell apoptosis induced by DDP and VP16.
