Objective To study the safety and efficacy of retroperitoneal laparoscopic resection of adrenal neurilemmoma.Methods The data of 7 cases with adrenal neurilemmoma undergoing retroperitoneal laparoscopic resection were analyzed.2 cases were diagnosed by ultrasound scan,3 cases had blood pressure elevation,and 2 cases had pain in waist and abdomen.All cases underwent ultrasound and CT scan.The neurilemmoma was located in left adrenal area in 2 cases and located in right adrenal area in 5 cases.Results All the 7 cases were successfully operated.No conversion or severe blood loss happened.The average tumor size was 5.0 cm,ranging from 3.0 to 7.0 cm.The average operation time was 75 min,ranging from 45 to 120 min.The estimated blood loss was 50 ml,ranging from 20 to 100 ml.The patients were discharged 7-8 day after the operation.During the 2-12 months of follow-up,no recurrence or metastasis was found.Conclusion Retroperitoneal laparoscopic resection offers an effective and better treatment for adrenal neurilemmoma,with the advantages of less blood loss,less trauma,and faster recovery.

Objective To discuss the feasibility and value of routine clinical preoperative examination predicting benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods The clinical data of 1630 patients undergoing thyroidectomy for nodular thyroid disease were analyzed retrospectively.The relationship between pathological diagnosis and physical examination,ultrasonographic parameters,the results of laboratory test and nuclear medicine test were examined to build a risk prediction model.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of the formula were tested. Results In 387 cystic nodules 0.78％ were malignant; In 1243 solid nodules 17.2％ were malignant.Among the 1243 cases,characters significantly related to malignancy were:age younger than 40 years,solitary lobe involvement,hypoechoic nodule,irregular margins,solid nodule,microcalcification,macrocalcification,max diameter ≤ 2 cm. The prediction formula was: malignancy indicator =0.80 × age + 0.59 × solitary lobe + 0.72 × hypoechoic + 0.82 × irregular margin + 1.32 × solid nodule + 1.90 × microcalcification + 0.70 × macrocalcification + 0.71 × max diameter.The threshold limit value was 2.8,and the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of which were 74.4％,80.4％ and 75.2％,respectively. Conclusions Benign and malignant thyroid nodules could be differentiated roughly with the combination of patients' general information and the results of routine examination before operation.

Objective:Studies suggested that some growth factors and their receptors play important roles in the treatment and prognosis of lung cancer.In this study we investigated the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),and Ki-67 simultaneously in the tissues of aged patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods:The expression levels of EGFR,VEGF,and Ki-67 in 64 cases of aged patients with NSCLC were detected by immunohistochemistry staining.Results:The positive expression of EGFR,VEGF and Ki-67 in the tissue of lung cancer was 59.4%,57.8% and 92.2%,respectively.It is different significantly while compared with control group of benign tissues.The expression levels of EGFR and VEGF are correlated significantly with the pathologic type,differential degree,TNM stage and lymphatic metastasis.The expression level of Ki-67 is related to differential degree and TNM stage of lung cancer.Conclusion:The method of immunohistochemistry to detect multiple biological markers simultaneously is simple and feasible.It can supply important information for the staging and prognoses of patients with NSCLC,and more than that,it can also provide the theoretic basis for the individualized molecular targeting therapy of NSCLC.

Objective:To assess the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationship of Desmodium styraeifolium from fifteen regions of Guangdong and Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. Methods:The molecular technique ISSR((inter-simple sequence repeat))was applied to investigate the genetic diversity of Desmodium styraeifolium from fifteen regions of Guangdong and Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. The data was analyzed with Popgene 1. 32,and a cluster diagram was presented by UPGMA. Results:Totally 51 amplified fragments were obtained by 7 ISSR primers. The results analyzed by Popgene 1. 32 showed that the Shannon diversity index(I)was 0. 3,the NEI’s genetic diversity coefficient(H)was 0. 246 4,the coefficient of genetic differentiation (GST)was 0. 123 8,and the gene flow(Nm)was 3. 539 7. Conclusion:The above mentioned results exhibit that Desmodium styraeifolium from Guangdong,Guangxi and some wild herbal populations has high genetic diversity. The clustering results illustrate that the genetic distance of Desmodium styraeifolium originated from Guangdong and Guangxi is related with geographic distance.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of salbutamol sulfate by atomized inhalation in the treatment of pe-diatric asthmatic disease. METHODS:156 children with asthmatic disease were randomly divided into control group (78 cases) and observation group (78 cases). Control group was given oxygen inhalation, anti-infection, relieving cough and reducing phlegm,aminophylline and other conventional treatment;observation group was additionally given 0.03 ml/kg salbutamol sulfate, adding into 2 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injection,putting into mask atomizer for nebulization,5-10 min every time,twice a day. They were treated for 5 d. Clinical efficacy,asthma remission time,pulmonary rales disappearing time,average hospitalization days and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:The total effective rate in observation group was sig-nificantly higher than control group,asthma remission time,pulmonary rales disappearing time and average hospitalization days were significantly shorter than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). There were obvious adverse re-actions in 2 groups during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Based on conventional treatment,salbutamol sulfate by atomized inhalation has obvious efficacy in the treatment of pediatric asthmatic disease,with good safety.

Objective To investigate the effects of laporoscopic resection applied to colorectal cancer patients on metabolism. Methods According to patients' choice of operation, either laparoscopic-assisted (n = 22, experimental group) or open(n = 27, control group) resection of colorectal cancer was performed. The levels of electrolyte were assayed preoperatively, postoperatively and on the time of 24 hours after opera-tion. Rseults There was no significant difference in the level of electrolyte before operation between the two groups (P > 0. 05). Compared with the preoperative period, the level of serum potassium in the both groups were significantly increased after operation(P < 0. 05), and 24 hours later, the levels of electrolyte was not significantly different in both the two groups (P > 0. 05). During the postoperative period, the level of serum potassium in the experimental group was lower than the control group(P <0. 05), while the level of HCO_3~- was higher than the control group(P <0. 05), and there were no significant differences in the level of serum sodium, chloride and calcium between the two groups(P > 0. 05). Conclusions Laparoscopic-assisted re-section of colorectal cancer gives lower levels of stress responses compared to open surgery. However, it shows higher effect on the level of HCO_3~- , and must be paid more attention during operative and postopera-tive period.
