1."The ""3B"" in the clinical management of non-neurogenic male lower urinary tract symptoms"
Chinese Journal of Urology 2017;38(5):326-329
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS),consisting storage,voiding and postmicturition symptoms,is a comprehensive definition involving multiple organs.There has been an increasing emphasis on the integrated management of non-neurogenic male lower urinary tract symptoms.Instead of focusing on the enlarged prostate,the current treatment has paid more attention on the entire urinary tract as well as multiple organ factors.Therefore,we provided a literature review and summarized the key points during the management of male LUTS as 3B,namely beyond prostate,beyond surgery and beyond urology.

Aim To explore the potential mechanism of ulinastatin’s antioxidant effect by examining the Nrf2 /HO-1 pathway.Methods OVA-induced asthma of mice was cured by intraperitoneal injection of ulinas-tatin (1 00 kU·kg -1 ·d -1 ).Control mice were given the same volume of PBS (pH 7.4).To investigate the effect of ulinastatin on airway hyperresponsiveness, levels of interleukin IL-4,IFN-γand OVA specific IgE in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). The content of ROS from BALF of mice was tested in double hydrogen rhodamine (DHR)-1 23 method.The level of protein carbonyl and MDA from lung tissue of mice was detected with Protein carbonyl content assay kit and MDA kit.And antioxidative enzyme in mice BALF was tested by antioxidant enzyme kit.The levels of HO-1 in lung tissue from mice were detected by Western blot and Real-time PCR.Nuclear transfer and binding activity of Nrf2 were tested respectively by Western blot,IF and EMSA.Results Ulinastatin could alleviate the airway hyperresponsiveness,dis-tinctly reduce the content of IL-4,OVA specific IgE, ROS,protein carbonyl and MDA,but upraise the ex-pression of IFN-γand antioxidative enzyme such as SOD,GSH and TAOC. Moreover, the antioxidant effect of ulinastatin could be reversed by Znpp,which was the inhibitor of HO-1 .Ulinastatin could obviously induce the expression of HO-1 in protein level in a dose-and time-dependent manner.Ulinastatin could also induce the nuclear transfer of Nrf2 and increase the binding activity of Nrf2 as well as the expression of HO-1 in gene level;Conclusion Ulinastatin could induce the activation of Nrf2 /HO-1 pathway,which may contribute to the protective effects of ulinastatin a-gainst OVA-induced oxidative stress.

Objective To report a 4-year cumulative series (209 cases) of laparoendoscopic singlesite surgery (LESS) in urology and assess its clinical utilization. Methods Consecutive LESS cases done between December 2008 and July 2012 at our institution were prospectively recorded and retrospective analyzed in this study.Demographic data,main perioperative outcomes,and information related to the surgical technique were collected and analyzed.There were 209 patients ( 121 males and 88 females) with a mean age of (52.8 ±14.5) years,a mean B MIof (23.5 ±3.12) kg/m2 and a mean ASA score of (2.0±0.3).20.1% (42 cases) of patients had previous abdominal or pelvic surgeries.29.2% (61 cases) and 12.9%(27 cases) of patients had diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Indications were renal tumors (70 cases,33.5%),adrenal tumors (42,20.1%),renal cyst (22 cases,10.5%),ureteral calculi (22 cases,10.5%),nonfunctional kidneys (19 cases,9.1%),BPH (10 cases,4.8%),and others (24 cases,11.5% ).Surgical conversions were evaluated,as well as intraoperative and postoperative complications.Two periods were arbitrarily dcfined:the first was from December 2008 to Septcmber 2010 (22 mon) and the second.was from October 2010 to July 2012 (22 mon).A comparative analysis between these two periods was conducted. Results There were 209 LESS surgeries included in this study.Most common procedures ( 92.3% ) were done on the upper urinary tract,with 55.5% of the whole cohort being tumor-related indications and only 16.3% being reconstructive procedures.The transperitoneal approaches were preferentially adopted in 80.9% cases,and transvesical access in 5.3% cases. The transumbilical access was used in 46.9% of cases.The overall conversion rate was 8.1%,with 4.3% of cases converted to reduced - port laparoscopy,1.9% to conventional laparoscopy,and 1.9% to open surgery.The intraoperative complication rate was 4.8% ( 10/209 ) and postoperative complications,mostly low grade,were encountered in 11.5%(24/209) of cases.There was a significant increase in the number of LESS cases during the second study period; the rate of some procedures (ie,transumbilical LESS,renal cyst decortication and transvesical single-port enucleation of the prostate) was lower,whereas some other procedures were performed more frequently (ie,tumor-related LESS procedures,radical nephrectomy and adrenalectomy). Conclusions A broad range of urological procedures can be finished with LESS technique in the experienced hands of a laparoscopic surgeons.However,LESS is still in its infancy with a certain risk of surgical complication and conversion.Stringent patient selection criteria should be applied,especially during the learning curve.Complex reconstructive procedures or malignant tumor related indications are not appropriate as the start of this kind of procedure.We need always put patient's safety and treatment efficacy first.

Objective To investigate feasibility and early stage postoperative complications of lapa-roscopic radical cystectomy ( LRC) . Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 63 consecutive pa-tents (58 males and 5 females) who underwent LRC from Oct .2011 to Oct.2013 in our institute.Of these patients, 46 patients underwent ileal conduit , 9 patients underwent ureterocutaneostomy , and 8 patients un-derwent orthotopic ileal neobladder urinary diversion .The average age and body mass index of patients were 67.7±11.1 (33-84) years and 23.3±2.1 (18.8-28.7) kg/m2, respectively.The mean hemoglobin and al-bumin of patients were (130.7±20.3) g/L and (38.9±4.1) g/L, respectively.Comorbidities of hyperten-sion, diabetes, coronary heart disease and decompensated liver cirrhosis were found in 10, 6, 2 and 1 pa-tient, respectively.10 of 61 patients had a history of abdominal surgery .The indications for cystectomy were classified as muscle invasive bladder cancer for 30 patients, unresectable superficial bladder cancer for 19 patients and recurrent bladder cancer for 14 patients.Postoperative data and early stage postoperative compli-cations within 3 months after surgery were collected . Results The median operative time for LRC and uri-nary diversion was 390 (260-480) min, with a median estimated blood loss of 400 (100-1 500) ml.This was one patient converted to open surgery .The mean postoperative hemoglobin and albumin of patients was 108.5±14.7 g/L and 29.5±3.7 g/L, respectively, both of which significantly reduced compared with pre-operative data (P<0.01).The median duration of hospital stay was 15 days.The median time for liquid in-take, abdominal drainage removal and ureteral stent removal was 4 days, 9 days and 2 months after surgery , respectively.Catheter was removed 2 weeks after laparoscopic orthotopic cystectomy .21 (33.3%) of 63 pa-tients suffered from perioperative complications .15 of 46 patients (32.6%) in ileal conduit group had com-plications including ileus ( 5, 1 of 5 need re-operation ) , lymphatic fistulas ( 5) , pulmonary infection ( 1) , pyelonephritis (1), delirium (1), anastomotic leak (1, re-operation was needed) and pneumothorax (1). 2 of 9 patients (22.2%) in ureterocutaneostomy group had complications such as ileus (1) and lymphatic fistulas (1).4 of 8 patients (50.0%) in orthotopic ileal neobladder group suffered from complications like ileus (2, 1 of 2 required re-operation), lymphatic fistulas (1) and arrhythmia (1). Conclusions LRC is technically feasible and safe .It reduces the estimated blood loss and postoperative complications .It is noteworthy to surgeons that serum albumin significantly reduced after LRC , nutrition should be kept balanced after surgery.

Objective To investigate the causes and managements of postoperative complications of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)in treating intertrochanteric fractures. Methods A total of 155 patients with intertrochanteric fractures were treated with PFNA from January 2011 to December 2017.Causes and managements of postoperative complications were analyzed and discussed. Results At an average follow-up of 48 months(range ,12~72 months) ,the rate of good postoperative recovery in hip function was 96.0% . Among 155 patients ,the internal fixation-associated postoperative complications occurred in 15(9.7% )patients.Details were as follows :7 cases had spiral blade breakage into the femoral head or inwardly ,in whom 5 cases received artificial joint replacement whereafter.5 cases had coxa vara ,mainly in patients with obvious posterior fracture of the femoral intertrochanter with obviously bone fragments.3 cases had delayed fracture healing due to the fracture damaging calcar femorale ,or extensive soft tissue dissection during the operation on small trochanter. The Harris function score was 82 points. Conclusions The location of the PFNA spiral blade ,as an important factor ,is correlated with postoperative complications ,while severe osteoporosis ,unstable fractures ,and poor fracture reduction increase the incidence of surgical complications.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been widely used in the treatment ofhypoxia,ischemia,and a series of diseases caused by hypoxia and ischemia.The treatment effect of HBOT on gliomas remains controversial.The presence of local hypoxia in gliomas is the main cause of tumor resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy;HBOT can improve the oxygen content in these areas,and thus,treatment should be as effective as other hypoxic diseases;however,most researchers believe that in the process of gliomas,the efficacy of HBOT alone is limited,and HBOT is usually not used alone.More commonly,HBOT is commonly used as adjuvant therapy in other treatments (such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy).Based on the above contents,we summarized as follows and put forward the views on the current debate.
