Objective To study the relationship of expression of metastasis suppressor gene nin23-H1 protein in gastric carcinoma tissue and tumor infiltration and metastasis.Methods The expression of metastasis suppressor gene nm23-H1 protein in 50 gastric carcinoma tissues was detected by SP immunohistocbemistry tech-nology.Results Correlations were presented among expression of nm23-H1 protein, infiltrate grade of gastric carcinoma, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage.Conclusions Expression of nm23-H1 may suppress infiltra-tion and metastasis of gastric carcinoma, Low expression of nm23-H1 protein may be of great reference value in judgement of tumor progression, metastasis and reeidivation.

Objective To Study the expression and clinical meaning of nm23-H1,c-Met and survivin protein in gastric carcinoma tissue.Methods Expression of nm23-H1,c-Met and survivin protein in 50 paraffin block samples of gastric carcinoma were detected by S-P immunohistochemistry technology.The relationship of expression to tumor differentiation degree,infiltration depth,lymph node metastasis,TNM stage,tumor metastasis and reeidivation were analyzed.Results The positive expression rates of nm23-H1,c-Met and survivin protein were 46%,72% and 80%,low nm23-H1 protein expression and high c-Met protein expression correlated tightly with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis of gastric carcinoma,high survivin protein expression correlated tightly with differentiation degree,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis of gastric carcinoma,there was a inverse correlation between nm23-H1 protein expression and survivin,but a direct correlation between c-Met and survivin.Conclusions Low nm23-H1 protein expression and high c-Met and survivin expression has important guidance significance of making a early diagnosis and judging prognosis.Selective gene therapy guided by these may be helpful.

Objective To explore the protective effect of portal vein administration of propofol on hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury(HIRI) and its mechanism.Methods Thirty-two male rabbits were randomly allocated into four groups:Group A(sham operation group),the abdomen was only opened and closed;group B,the hepatic inflow was occluded for 30 min,and reperfused for 60 min;group C,the same managment as group B + propofol injected through jugular vein;group D,the treatment same as group B + propofol injected through portal vein.Drug injection was completed 20 min before hepatic inflow occlusion.Serum ALT and AST,and endothelin-1(ET-1) and nitric oxide(NO)in the hepatic tissue and blood,and the content of ATP in hepatic tissue were determined.Results The level of ET-1 in plasma and hepatic tissue was significantly increased in group B compared to group C and D(P

Purpose To explore the methods of selectively visualizing hepatic portal vein by using three-dimensional fast imaging employing steady state acquisition combined with in-flow inversion recovery labeling pulse at 3.0 Tesla. Materials and Methods Ten healthy volunteers were examined under different TI (1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 ms), and the vessel-to-liver contrast ratio of the main portal vein, right portal vein, and left portal vein were measured. Results Non-contrast-enhanced MRA images of portal vein were obtained successfully in all ten volunteers. The signal intensity of peripheral portal branches gradually increased when TI increased from 1200 ms to 1600 ms, and the highest vessel-to-liver contrast ratio occurred when TI was 1400 ms. Conclusion Non-contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography of the hepatic portal vein can be successfully achieved at 3.0T high field MRI. A fixed TI of 1400 ms is preferable.

The hemolysin production of 19 strains of Streptococcus spp. isolated from pigs in the Jiangsu and Shanghai regions in recent years were examined. Eight isolates of Streptococcus suis type 2 from Jiangsu showed weak hemolysis on blood agar, but a stronger reaction in Todd-Hewitt broth(THB). The hemolysin belonged to the group of thiol-activated hemolysins. Nine strains of Streptoccus equi subsp. zooepidemicus showed strong hemolysis on blood agar and in THB containing 5% new-born calf serum, but no hemolysis in THB alone. This hemolysin was similar to streptolysin S(SLS). Another two isolates were atypical members of Lancefield group C Streptococcus and showed strong hemolysis on blood agar and in THB with 5% new-born calf serum, but the hemolysin was unlike either streptolysin O or SLS.

PurposeTo evaluate multislice spiral CT (MSCT) in diagnosing abdominal anaphylactoid purpura (AAP), and to explore its role in treatment follow-up.Materials and Methods Clinical and MSCT data of 13 patients with confirmed AAP were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent abdominal CT scan and thin layer reconstruction. Upper endoscopy was performed in 8 patients prior to treatment. MSCT was performed in 10 patients and endoscopy in 4 patients posttreatment, then clinical and CT features were compared to pretreatment findings.Results In pretreatment CT scan, single segment bowel involvement was found in 2 cases, multisegmental bowel involvement in 10 cases, and no positive finding in 1 patient. The duodenum and jejunum were involved in 8 patients and stomach in 5 patients. The diseased bowel wall showed swelling and thickening with decreased attenuation and homogeneous luminal narrowing with equivocal lining and double loop sign. Infiltration was found in 10 patients, small ascites in 3 patients. Patients were misdiagnosed as acute pancreatitis in 2 cases, acute cholecystitis, small bowel obstruction and peritonitis in 1 case respectively. Of 13 patients, five patients were cured, and the other 8 patients were improved. The clinical symptoms including rash, abdominal pain, occult blood, leukocytosis, vomiting, melena, urine occult blood were improved (χ2=5.59-18.33,P<0.05 orP<0.01). Post treatment CT showed significant improvement of bowel edema and infiltration (P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in change of ascites (P>0.05).Conclusion MSCT findings of AAP are nonspecific. CT diagnosis is difficult before skin rash. Combining CT characteristics of multisegmental bowel edema and clinical manifestations is helpful. CT examination can effectively follow up treatment response.

Objective: To investigate the alteration of bcl- 2 gene family in the rat brain and the molecular mechanism of neuronal apoptosis following traumatic brain injury. Methods: Male Sprague -Dawley rats were subjected to lateral fluid percussion brain injury(FPI) of mo derate severity. Bcl-2, Bcl-x and Bax protein expression was detected by immun ohistochemistry. Results: (1) The immunoreactivity of Bcl-2 and Bcl-x protein decreased in the hippocampus ipsilateral impact site as early as 6 h post-injury, and this was the main cause of down-regulation of the ratio of Bcl-2+Bcl-x to Bax. (2) During 1-3 d after injury, the Bax protein express i on increased significantly, while the Bcl-2 and Bcl-x protein expression decre ased relatively slow. The decreased ratio of Bcl-2+Bcl-x to Bax was mainly due to the Bax up-regulation. Conclusion: The bcl-2 gene family is involved in neuronal apoptosis after FBI, and the protein expression alteration of the family members leads the neuronal cell to apoptosis.

Objective Comparing the effect of different anesthetic inductions in pediatric pa-tients undergoing bronchial foreign body removal.Methods Thirty pediatric patients,aged 9-58 months,undergoing emergency bronchial foreign body removal,were randomly into 3 groups (n=10 each):group sevoflurane (group S),group propofol (group P),and group ketamine (group K).Pa-tients in group S were inducted with sevoflurane 8% inhalation,group P with propofol 2.5 mg/kg in-travenous injection,group K with ketamine 5 mg/kg intramuscular injection.Three groups of pa-tients breathed spontaneously during operative period and received topical anesthesia of lidocaine be-fore the placement of rigid bronchoscopy.Combination of intravenous target-controlled infusion of propofol (target plasma concentration of 3-3.5 μg/ml)and remifentanil (target plasma concentration of 2-3 ng/ml)was used for maintenance of anesthesia.The rigid bronchoscopy was inserted after pre-oxygenation for 3 min.Rigid bronchoscopy was performed and the placement time,the first place-ment successfully rate,hypoxemia and side effects as well as postoperative awaking time were recor-ded.Results The first placement successfully rate,group S 90%,group P 70%,group K 40%,with significant difference among three groups (P<0.05).The incidence of side effects were not signifi-cant difference in three groups;In group S and group P,the placement time and the anesthesia awa-king time was significant shorter than that in group K (P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with propo-fol intravenous induction and ketamine intramuscular induction,the high concentration sevoflurane in-duction can provide faster induction,shorter waking time,and reduceside effects in childen undergo-ing bronchial foreign body removal.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of affective disorder in Kunming City. Methods: A rep-resentative sample of the Kunming general population composed of 5033 individuals aged 15 years and older was se-lecteed randomly by the method of probability proportional to size (PPS), and then was interviewed with the World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview Version 2.1 (CIDI, version 2.1).The preva-lence of affective disorder was investigated. And the relative factors, onset age and comorbid were also analyzed. Results: The 30-duy prevalence of affective disorder was 0.98%, the 12-month prevalence was 1.22%,and the lifetime prevalence was 1.89%. The results of the single factor analysis showed that the urban residents, the persons who divorced, limited divorced or lost one's spouse, and the unemployed or the higher educated were more vulnerable to depression. The results of the multifactor analysis showed that the rural residents and the males were protective factors to affective disorder. Different subunits of affective disorder had different onset ages. The onset age of 90% bipolar disorder patients was before 25 years old. The patients before 50 years old was risky to dysthy-mia. The patients with major depression had a lifetime risk of onset. Anxiety disorder and pain disorder would in-crease the risk of affective disorder. Conclusion: The findings show that the prevalence of the affective disorder is lower than the same kind survey abroad while it is close to the domestic's. More attention and intervention should been given to the urban population, the females, the singles, the unemployed, and the higher educationed.

Objective To analyze and explore the value of 3 T high resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging for identifying the activity of Takayasu arteritis. Methods Twenty-six consecutive patients with Takayasu arteritis underwent 3.0 T high resolution MR vessel wall imaging on supraortic vessels (according to the classification of Lupi-Herrea , type Ⅰ and Ⅲ were included). Sixteen patients were in active phase and 10 in inactive phase based on the Kerr criteria. The MR vessel wall imaging appearances of Takayasu arteritis were compared between the active phase and inactive phase cases. Results Wall thickening was demonstrated in all involved arteries. There were statistically significant differences between active phase and inactive phase cases in MR appearances including multi-ring thickening of vessel wall (75/80 and 18/50), arterial inner wail enhancement (50/80 and 19/50), obscurity of perivascular fat (55/80 and 18/50,X<'2>=50.39,7.41,13.40,P<0.01). There was also a statistically significant difference in the thickness of carotid artery wall between the two groups [ (3.8±0.2) mm vs (2.5±0.8) mm]. Conclusion 3 T high resolution MR vessel wall imaging is valuable for identifying the activity of Takayasu arteritis.
