Objective To investigate the effects of local wet hyperthermia combined with microwave ablationon tumor growth and serum levels of interferon-β(IFN-β)and interleukine-12(IL-12).Methods An experimental mouse model beating mammary carcinoma was established in Balb/c mice and then treated with microwave ablation after 14 d.Seven d after ablation,local wet hyperthermia was administered once weekly for 2 weeks.Tumor growth and lung metastasis,as well as the survival of bearing tumor mice were observed.The serum levels of IFN-β and IL-12 were detected with enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay(ELISA). Results When local wet hyperthermia was combined with microwave ablation tumor growth and lung metastasis were significantly less than when microwave ablation or local wet hyperthermia was used alone(P＜0.05).Furthermore,the survival of bearing tumor mice in combined therapy group prolonged significantly compared with those receiving either therapy alone(P＜0.05).Serum levels of IFN-β and IL-12 were also significantly higher in combined therapy group compared with the other groups (P＜0.05). Conclusions Local wet hyperthermia combined with microwave ablation is more effective than either local wet hyperthermia or microwave ablation alone in retarding tumor growth,which may be related to the enhanced immune response.

Objective To explore the relationship between condition of hypoxia and prognosis in patient with renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC).Methods The expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-lo( HIF-1 α) protein in cancer tissue of 89 RCCC cases was examined by streptavidin-biotin complex immunohistochemistry.Clinical and pathological data and prognosis of 89 cases were analyzed retrospectively.There were 66 males and 23 females,with an average age of 57 years.The patients were divided into two groups,the chronic pulmonary disease (CPD) group ( 19 cases) and non CPD (NCPD) group (70 cases),with 46cases in clinical stage I,15 cases in stage Ⅱ,26 cases in stage Ⅲ,and 2 cases in stage Ⅳ.The relationship between survival time and clinicopathological variables including the presence of CPD,the positive rate of HIF-1α protein,smoking history and hemoglobin level were evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method.And the Cox proportional hazards regression model was build to analyze the correlation between each variable and survival time.Results The 89 cases were followed up for a median time of 19 months (6 to 84 months).Twenty cases died,and 69 cases survived.Between the CPD group and NCPD group,clinical stage,hemoglobin level and the degree of expression of HIF-1 α were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05 ).The median survival time was 44 and 71 months in CPD group and NCPD group,respectively,and the difference was significant ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The median survival time was 43 and 70 months in Hb≤ 110 g/L group and Hb ＞ 110 g/L group,respectively,and the difference was significant ( P ＜ 0.05).The stronger the degree of expression of HIF-lα was,the shorter the overall survival was.And the difference was significant ( P ＜0.05 ).Associated with CPD,hemoglobin level,the expression of H1F-1α were independent factors affecting overall survival of the patients (P ＜0.05 ).CPD and HIF-1 α expression were positively related to disease-free survival time,and hemoglobin level was negatively related to disease-free survival time.Conclusions Systemic hypoxia caused by CPD may aggravate the hypoxie state in the organization of the patients with RCCC.The condition of hypoxia and prognosis in patient with RCCC is negatively correlated.

Objective To construct the prokaryotic expression vector of mouse CD25 extracellular domain and to express it in E coli.Methods Total RNA was isolated from splenocytes of Balb/c mice.The CD25 extracellular domain gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into the PET-32a vector.A positive recombinant,PET-32a-CD25e,was identified by enzyme cleaving and sequencing before its expression in E.coli,and transferred into E.coli BL21(DE3) plysS for its expression.After purification with Ni+ resin and renaturation in vitro,a relative molecular mass(Mr) of the interesting protein was detected by SDS-PAGE and Wes-tern blotting.Effect of the purified interesting protein on the proliferation of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized syngeneic mice was detected by MTT assay.Results The cloned CD25 extracellular domain gene was identified to be functional by sequencing and expression.The purified interesting protein could significantly induce the proliferation and IL-4 secretion of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized mice in vitro.Conclusion Mouse CD25 extracellular domain gene can be successfully expressed in prokaryotic cells with biological activity,which lays a foundation for further relative studies.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the therapeutic effect of thenar perforator flaps for the narrow cicatricial contracture at thumb and the first web.

METHODSFrom Aug. 2010 to Jan. 2012, 9 cases with narrow cicatricial contracture at thumb and the first web, were treated. The defect size after releasing the contracture ranged from 8 mm x 20 mm to 15 cm x 30 mm. The bilateral thenar perforator flaps beside the wound were designed which size was 10 mm x 25 mm to 15 mm x 35 mm. The wounds at donor sites were closed directly.

RESULTSAll the 9 flaps survived completely with primary healing. The patients were followed up for 6-18 months. The flaps had soft texture and good appearance. The shape of flaps and function of the fingers were satisfied after 6-18 months of follow-up. There was no scar contracture at incisions in thenar. The thumb motion was really normal. The abduction of first web was 70 degrees - 90 degrees degrees.

CONCLUSIONSThe thenar perforator flaps is one of the ideal methods for the treatment of narrow cicatricial contracture at thumb and the first web. The main artery is not sacrified.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the endoscopic characteristics of chronic gastritis,duodenitis,peptic ulcer and their histopathologic findings in children,and explore the relationship between Helicobacter pylori(Hp) infection and the severity of histopathologic changes of gastroduodenal mucosa in children. Methods Three hundreds and sixty-six children with chronic upper gastrointestinal symptoms who were examined by gastroscopy were enrolled.The gastric and duodenal mucosal biopsy specimens of all the patients were studied histopathologically. ResultsTypes of chronic gastroduodenal diseases in all these patients were: chronic gastritis(n=206,56.3%),chronic gastritis combined with duodenitis(n=112,30.6%),chronic gastritis combined with peptic ulcer(n=48,13.1%).There was chronic inflammation in gastric mucosa and duodenal bulb mucosa in all the cases examined by histopathologic examination.Hp infection was found in 106 cases(28.96%).The gastric mucosal inflammation was more severe in those with Hp infection than those without(P0.05).The were significant differences in the incidences of inflammation activity,atrophia and nodulus lymphaticus of gastric mucosa between those with Hp infection and those without(P

To analyze the causes and treatments of high intraocular pressure ( > 21mmHg ) of angle - closure glaucoma underwent compound trabeculectomy 1mo after surgery.
●METHODS: This was a retrospective study of our hospital, from March 2010 to March 2013. Thirty-four (38 eyes) of angle-closure glaucoma patients were collected, who underwent compound trabeculectomy with high intraocular pressure ( > 21mmHg) 1mo after operation. We analyzed the causes and summarized the treatments.
●RESULTS:The causes which lead to early postoperative high intraocular pressure included malignant glaucoma (9 eyes of 8 cases), blood clot and connective tissue block under the scleral flap (15 eyes of 13 cases), hyphema after surgery(5 eyes of 5 cases), sclera flap incision was incarcerated with iris tissue ( 3 eyes of 3 cases ), preoperative high intraocular pressure for a long time(5 eyes of 4 cases), 1 eye of 1 case for unknown reason. After proper treatments, intraocular pressures of all patients were bellowed 21mmHg.
● CONCLUSlON: Early postoperative high intraocular pressure of angle - closure glaucoma underwent compound trabeculectomy is caused by various factors, and the early prevention and timely treatment are key points of a successful operation.

Objective To analyze the epidemiology and clinical features of the critical congenital heart diseases in neonates,and to summarize the main points on pre-operative treatments.Methods We retrospectively analyzed all critical congenital heart disease in newborns admitted to CICU from June 2014to June 2015.Depict entity distribution,the main symptoms,and the key points on their treatments,also the indi-cation of intubation and their operation time were summarized.Results In totally 96cases,transposition of the great artery,with and without the intact ventricle septum,was the biggest category and counts for 49%in our group.Severe cyanosis was the main symptom for 62.5% of all cases.Another key symptom was the heart failure(33.3%).Eight-seven cases were intubated during their treatments,in which 41were intubated as soon as they were admitted and 40cases were done in the first 24hours after their admission.One case died before treatment due to interrupted aortic arch.All the rest received operations during their hospital stay. Conclusion Transposition of great artery is the dominating entity in critical congenital heart diseases in new-borns;severe cyanosis is the main symptom.Treatment should be based on each characteristic anatomy and hemodynamics features.Rigorous and dynamic monitoring on the homeostasis and metabolic index determines the indication of intubation and surgery time.
