Chinese Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology 2015;(6):636-639
Purpose To assess the potentia1 of DNA image cytometry and urinary cyto1ogy in screening for urothe1ia1 carcinomas,and to find the idea1 method of ear1y diagnosis of urothe1ia1 cancer. Methods Voided urine specimens from 121 patients with urothe1ia1 carcinoma were random1y co11ected as test group and 95 patients with symptomatic uro1ogic disease but not urothe1ia1 carcinoma as con-tro1 group,a11 of the specimens were ana1yzed by both urinary cyto1ogy and DNA image cytometry. Results Urinary cyto1ogy had a higher sensitivity but 1ower specificity in diagnosis of urothe1ia1 carcinoma than that of DNA cytometry. Urinary cyto1ogy yie1ded an o-vera11 sensitivity of 85. 10%,specificity of 76. 80%. DNA cytometry revea1ed a sensitivity of 81. 80%,specificity of 81. 10%. Among the 121 urothe1ia1 carcinoma,there were 103 b1adder cancers,18 patients with upper urothe1ia1 carcinoma. For different types of urothe1ia1 carcinoma,both of the two methods demonstrated good sensitivity in the high 1eve1 tumor. And DNA cytometry had exce11ent sensitivity in the diagnosis of urothe1ia1 carcinoma in invasive b1adder cancer and upper urinary tract cancer,and both were more than 94%. Conclusions In 1ight of its high1y good sensitivity and specificity in urothe1ia1 carcinoma,especia11y in invasive b1adder cancer and upper urinary tract cancer,DNA cytometry shou1d be used to eva1uate suspect urothe1ia1 ce11s in urinary cyto1ogy specimens. Com-bined with the conventiona1 urinary cyto1ogy,the detection for urothe1ia1 carcinoma wou1d be significant1y improved.

In order to observe the effects of the supernatant of WEHI-3 cell culture which contains IL-3 (interleukin 3), we have Performed some experiments by adding WEHI-3 supernatant to murine bone marrow cells culture. Cell culture of six days shows that the supernatant of WEHI-3 can promote adherence and proliferation of the stromal cells. There are 1.334?10~6 stromal cells/L in the culture which contained 20% WEHI-3 supernatant. Four kinds of stromal cells can be identified under both light microscope and SEM. Fibroblast-like cells which tend to be spindle-shaped with many filament-like and microvilli-like dendrites on the cell surface; Riticular-like cells which are irregular with some folds on the dendrites surface occasionally; Macrophage-like cells which are round with many phagocytic granules in the cytoplasm, and are characterized by positive ANAE staining, and many lamina-like folds and long filament-like dendrites on the cell sufrace; Fat cells are few in number, the cell body is ovoid with lipid droplet, and show strong cytoplasmic staining for Sudan black B, the cell surface is smooth. At the same time we have also observed the close contact between the hematopoietic cells and the stromal cells. In the culture without WEHI-3 supernatant, we have found few small adhered cells with less cytoplasm and weak enzyme activaties under light microscope, and with atrophied cell body and flat surface under SEM. The cell count of the stromal cells in normal culture is 58.83/mm~2. The results showed that WEHI-3 supernatant can promote the growth and proliferation of the stromal cells of murine bone marrow with some histochemical changes.

Objective To evaluate the effect of consecutive diet nursing intervention on elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods 56 elderly type 2 diebetes patients were randomly selected in control group and were given conventional type 2 diabetes management. The other 56 patients in experimental group were not only given routine care, but also 3 months of consecutive diet nursing intervention. At the 1st and 3rd month, assessment of blood glucose test and quality of life were conducted by all patients conducted. T test, chi-square test were used in the statistics. Results In experimental group, the controlling effect of fasting plasma glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose have been significantly improved. 3 months after the consecutive diet nursing intervention, fasting plasma glucose of control and experimental groups were (7.18±0.89) mmol/L and (6.37±0.74) mmol/L (P=0.027). After 1 months of the consecutive diet nursing intervention, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose of control group and the experimental group were (11.69 ± 1.58) mmol/ L and (9.03 ± 2.13) mmol/ L (P = 0.028) respectively. After 3 months of intervention, the number were were (12.12±2.36) mmol/L and (8.36±1.65) mmol/L respectively (P<0.01). In the experimental group, the therapeutic dimension of quality of life has been gradually decreased and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusions Consecutive diet nursing intervention can effectively improve the blood glucose control of elderly type 2 diabetes patients.

BACKGROUND:Transforaminal endoscopic discectomy needs to dissociate the ligamentum flavum, and if
combined with the continuous dilator and working channel, it can keep the intact ligamentum flavum no matter how smal the incision may be (even 3-5 mm).
OBJECTIVE:To present the technique of interlaminar endoscopic lumbar discectomy with ligamentum flavum splitting.
METHODS:We performed operations on 16 male and 14 female patients by interlaminar endoscopic lumbar
discectomy with ligamentum flavum splitting. The average age of the patients in the study was (48±15) years. The chief complaint before surgery was radiculopathy confined to one leg. The anatomic operative level was L 3-4 in
one case, L 4-5 in 13 cases and L 5-S 1 in 16 cases. The ruptured disc migrated superiorly in four cases and
inferiorly in seven cases, and intraoperative electromyo-graphic monitoring was performed in al surgeries. The
ligamentum flavum was split, and after withdrawing the working channel, the ligamentum flavum could reset itself. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The total operation time was 20-40 minutes, and the fol ow-up period was
(149±108) days. There were no abnormal signals on the intraoperative electromyography in any cases, and the reported symptoms were immediately improved in al patients after the operation. Fol ow-up magneticresonance imaging showed a disappearance of the ruptured disc without defect in the ligamentum flavum. There were no operation-associated complications in al the patients. Interlaminar endoscopic lumbar discectomy with
ligamentum flavum splitting is a feasible approach.

Objective To investigate the influence of hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) on blood pressure (BP) and the incidence of rebleeding in patients with hypertensive intracranial hemorrhage (HICH)Methods One hundred and twenty patients with HICH were treated for 60 min with 100% oxygen at 2.0 absolute atmospheres (ATA) daily when the condition was stable and BP was controlled ideally. Blood pressure was measured before the patients were sent into the HBO chamber and remeasured following completion of each HBOT session and 1 hour later. Rebleeding was monitored during and after each HBO session . Results HBOT caused a significant elevation of systolic BP in 25.83% (31/120) patients and a significant decrease in 16.67% (20/120) patients (P <0. 05 ),whereas the rest 57.5% (69/120) patients had no significant changes,when the BP was measured right after the HBOT session. The mean diastolic BP increased in 69 (57. 50% ) patients and decreased in 4. 17%(5/120) patients (P < 0. 05 ), whereas we found no significant changes in the rest 46 (38. 33% ) patients. No differences were found in the comparison of BP before and 1 hour after the HBOT session and no one suffered from rebleeding during and after HBOT session. Conclusions HBOT may cause temporal blood pressure changes in most patients with HICH, however, it will not cause an increasing incidence of rebleeding if the patient's condition is stable and the blood pressure has been well controlled.
