Objective To study the reasonable treatment to the patients with raptured intracranial aneurysms of hunt-hess Ⅲ-IV grade in the cerebral vasospasm stage. Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms of hunt-hess Ⅲ-IV grade were analyzed retrospectively. All of the patients were clipped closed by microsurgery (36) or embolized intervention(44) in 3～18 days after disease. According to the time of surgical intervention after disease,they were divided into 42 patients with early(3～10 days) surgical group and 38 patients with advanced(11～18 days) surgical group. The different operative methods and different treatment periods were compared in order to evaluate the effect to the prognosis, the DIND incidence and the ruptured again aneurysms during operation incidence. Results There was no statistical significance in the effect about early or advanced surgical intervention to the prognosis, the DIND incidence and the ruptured again aneurysms during operation incidence (P > 0.05). There was no statistical significance in the effect about advanced interventional embolization or clipping closed by microsurgery to the prognosis,the DIND incidence and the ruptured again aneurysms during operation incidence(P > 0. 05). There was statistical significance in the effect about early interventional embolization or clipping closed by microsurgery to the prognosis,the DIND incidence and the ruptured again aneurysms during operation incidence(P< 0.05). The interventional embolization had better prognosis,more lower DIND incidence and more lower ruptured a-gain aneurysms during operation incidence than the clipping closed by microsurgery. Conclusion The patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms of hunt-hess Ⅲ-IV grade in the cerebral vasospasm stage should be earlier intervened surgically,then it seems that interventional embolization is more reasonable which is worth referencing in clinic. The good operation habits during operation and the effectively strengthening management after operation had positive significance to ensure operative effect and to improve prognosis.

Objective To study the possible reasons and the processing strategy of brain injury operation complicated with intracranial hemorrhage.Methods The clinical data about 22 patients who were digged skull operation because of brain injury and complicated with intracranial hemorrhage in operation in neurosurgery from 2007 June to 2008 February were retrospectively analyzed,and different types intracranial hemorrhage were classified.Results In 22 patients,12 patients were complicated with epidural hematoma,in which the patients (9/12,75.0%) complicated with opposite hematoma were common;5 patients were complicated with intracerebral hematoma,in which the patients (3/5,60%) complicated with ipsilateral hematoma were common;4 patients were complicated with acute subdural hematoma,and all the patients complicated with opposite hematoma;1 patient was complicated with sub-flap hematoma.Conclusions In the patients who are complicated with intracranial hemorrhage because of digging skull operation to brain injury,epidural hematoma are most,then intracerebral hematoma,subdural hematoma,sub-flap hematoma.The important measures of preventing secondary intracranial hemorrhage are definiting force mechanism and distinguishing fracture line before operation,gradiently decompressing,completely removing crushing brain tissue,protecting reflux veins,rigorously stopping bleeding during operation.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of microRNA-205 (miRNA-205) on proliferation of laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2. METHOD: The expressions of miRNA-205 in 27 cases laryngeal carcinoma tissues and adjacent normal tissues were detected by Real-time quantitative PCR, the expression of PTEN protein was detected by Western blot. The expressions of PTEN were detected by Western blot after miRNA-205 inhibitor or miRNA-205 mimics was transfected into Hep-2 cells and Hep-2 cells proliferation was measured by CCK-8 kit. RESULT: The expression level of miRNA-205 was significantly higher in laryngeal carcinoma tissues than in adjacent normal tissues (P < 0.01), and the expression of PTEN protein was lower in laryngeal carcinoma tissues than in adjacent normal tissues (P < 0.01). The proliferation rate of Hep-2 cells was decreased significantly and the expression of PTEN protein in Hep-2 cells was increased significantly after miRNA-205 inhibitor was transfected into (P < 0.01), and the proliferation rate of Hep-2 cells was increased significantly and the expression of PTEN protein in Hep-2 cells was decreased significantly after miRNA-205 mimics was transfected into (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION miRNA-205 might promote the proliferation of Hep-2 cells by regulating the expression of PTEN.

Objective To analyze the effect of intravenous dripping of 3% sodium chloride solution on prevention of diluted hyponatremia during transurethral vaporization of the prostate (TUVP). Methods Eighty-five cases with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) accompanied with typical lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were divided into two groups during undergoing TUVP operation: the control group(n=38) given Ringer's solution dripping (3ml/min) and the concentrated sodium chloride injection group(n= 47) given 3% sodium chloride solution dripping (2～4ml/min). All of the operations were taken via Wolf electric resection system, and the operation time was≥60 min. The complete blood count and serum electrolyte were determined before operation and 60 minutes after operation beginning, and the data were compared between the two groups. Results The decrease amplitude of serum sodium was obviously smaller in concentrated sodium chloride injection group[(1.45±5.14)mmol/L] than that in the control group[(7.79±6.64) mmol/L] 60 minutes after operation beginning (P<0.05). Conclusions Giving 3% sodium chloride solution by intravenous drip during TUVP may reduce the severity of diluted hyponatremia and postpone the occurrence of hyponatremia, and thereby decrease the risk of transurethral resection syndrome.
