Background and purpose: miR-210 was closely related to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer, but its mechanism and clinical significance were still not clear. The purpose of this study was to explore the expression of miR-210 in gastric cancer tissues and its clinical significance. Methods: The expression of miR-210 was detected in gastric cancer tissues and the corresponding adjacent tissues. The relationship between the expression of miR-210 and clinical pathological factors and prognosis was analyzed. Results: Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) showed that the expression of miR-210 in gastric cancer was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The expression of miR-210 was closely related to tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage, but was not related to age, gender, tumor dif-ferentiation and depth of invasion. The 5-year survival rate of patients with low miR-210 expression was 48.2%, where-as the 5-year survival rate of patients with high miR-210 expression was 30.4% (χ2=4.216, P=0.040). Conclusion: The expression of miR-210 in gastric cancer was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and maybe related to the development and prognosis of gastric cancer. miR-210 is expected to be a new diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for gastric cancer.

Objective To study the effects of intraoporative radio-frequency ablation on immune functions and survival of patients with multiple large hepatic cancer. Methods Forty five admitted patients with multiple large hepatic cancer from January 2003 to January 2007 were devided into: simple hepatic artery embohzation chemotherapy group (TACE group, n = 20) , local resection of multiple lesion + TACE (LR group, n = 13), and TACE + intraoperative radio-frequency ablation (IRFA group, n = 12). The changes of peripheral blood T-cell subsets were evaluated using flow cytometry, and a comparison of the complete remission rate and survival rate between the 3 groups was made and the survival rate analyzed with Kaplan-Meier method, the validity check with long-rank method. Results CD4+ , NK, and CD4+/ CD8+radio significantly increased 4 weeks after treatment only in IRFA group. The immune function was suppressed during the first week after treatment in local resection group. Tumor complete remission rate in IRFA group, local resection group and simple TACE group were 41.70%, 46. 20% and 25.50% respectively, the difference was not statistically significant between the 3 groups (x2 = 1.81, P > 0.05). the 1.5 year and 2.0 year survival rate in the 3 groups were 75.00%, 69. 20%, 30% (x2 = 7.96, P < 0.05) and 50.00%, 23.10%, 10. 00% respectively (x2 = 18.98 ,P <0.05), the mean survival period of patients in the 3 groups was 26. 56 months, 21.04 months, and 16.41 months respectively (x2 = 14.69, P < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed the overall survival rate in the IRFA group was significantly higher than that of the other 2 groups (x2 = 4.635, P < 0.05). The prolongation of the survival period in patient with multiple macronodular hepatic cancer after IRFA treatment was mainly due to the prolongation of survival period in tumor bearing patients (IRFA group vs LR group, x2= 4.615, P < 0.05). Conclusion IRFA prolongs the survival of patients with multiple macranodular hepatic cancer possibly by enhancing the functions of cellular immunity.

Objective To introduce the application of double liver hanging maneuver in anatomical right hemihepatectomy and share our own experience. Methods Twenty-four patients underwent right hemihepatectomy using double liver hanging maneuver, and the data were collected prospectively after operation. Another 49 patients underwent right hemihepatectomy using the traditional methods,serving as the control group. Results Retrohepatic tunnel was constructed in 27 patients, double liver hanging maneuver was successfully performed in 24 anatomical right hemihepatomy and failed in 3 patients due to the near proximity between the tumor and the middle line. Compared with the control group, blood loss was much less (t=3. 191 ,P<0.05), ALT and liver function recovered more quickly postoperatively and the difference in operative duration between the 2 groups was not significant (t=-1. 695,P>0. 05). There was about 1-2 cm wide space located between retrohepatic IVC and dorsal liver when the 2 tapes were tracted, and no injury in hepatic short veins and retrohepatic IVC occurred during the operation. Conclusion The double liver hanging maneuver can make anatomical right hemihepatectomy more accessible and safe.
