Objective To investigate the significance of anti-SmD1 antibody and other auto-antibod- ies in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE).Methods Forty-four SLE patients and 136 other rheumatic dis- eases patients were studied.The later group included Sj(?)gren's syndrome,undifferentiated connective tissue disease,ankylosing spondylitis,and rheumatoid arthritis.Immunoblotting was used to measure,the anti-SmD1 antibody,ANuA and anti-SSA60 000 antibody.ANA and anti-dsDNA were detected by indirect immunofluo- rescence,immunodotting was used to measure the anti-Sin antibody.Results The seropositive rate of anti- StuD1 was 47.7% in SLE patients.It was much higher than that of anti-Sm(P

Objective To explore the relation between thyroid nodular and thyroid calcification .Methods The clinical data of 430 cases with nodular goiter admitted from January 2011 to December 2013 were reviewed.All cases were performed ultrasonography and pathologic examination .Results Of 430 cases,there was thyroid carcinoma in 49 cases(11.4%),including microcalcification in 30 cases(61.2%) and macrocalcification in 3 cases(6.1%);benign lesion in 381 cases(88.6%),including microcalcification in 24 cases(6.3%) and macrocalcification in 39 cases(10.2%).The difference was remarkable (P=0.000).There was remarkable difference in malignant calci-fied nodules ratio between the patients with microcalcification and macrocalcification (55.6%vs 7.1%,P=0.000), between the patients aged 45 years below and above(48.8%vs 22.6%,P=0.007),between the patients with solita-ry and multiple nodules(45.0%vs 16.7%,P=0.005).But there was no statistic difference in malignant calcified nodules ratio between the male and female groups (24.2% vs.39.7%,P=0.130).Conclusion Microcalcification is a highly specific sign to predict thyroid carcinoma in ultrasonography exam .Positive intervention will be performed immediately when calcification appears in thyroid nodules .

Objective To summarize our experiences on open heart surgery through the right subaxillary small incision. Methods Between March 2001 and June 2008,612 patients with congenital heart diseases were treated by open surgery trough a right subaxillary small incision via hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass. The incision was made from the posterior axillary line at the axilla to the middle axillary line a the fifth intercostal space (4-8 cm in length),and then the intercostal muscle was cut at the inferior edge of the fourth rib for the entrance into the chest cavity. In this series,165 patients had ASD,403 had VSD,35 had ASD complicated with VSD,3 showed PECD,and 6 were found as PAPVC. Results The mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was (25.0?5.5) min,402 of the patients (65.6%) need no blood transfusion. The mean hospital stay was (6.0?4.5) d,no patient died in hospital. The 420 patients were followed up for 5 to 80 months (mean 47 months). During the period,cardiac ultrasonography showed good outcomes in the patients. No complications or death were detected. Conclusions Right subaxillary small incision is a safe and minimally invasive method for the treatment of ASD and VSD with quick recovery,less hemorrhage,shorter hospital stay,less complications,and satisfying cosmetic outcomes.

Hemorrhoid refers to soft vein mass formed by varicosity of submucosal veins around the end of the rectum and subcutanceous veins of the anal canal. It is the most common anorectal disease. This article summarized the regular patterns, features and advantages of Professor Yu Hai-Bo's acupuncture-moxibustion therapy for hemorrhoids, in order to guide the acupuncture treatment for hemorrhoids.

Objective To study the expression and significance of P53 and nm23 in colorectal adenocarcinoma.Methods The expression of P53 and nm23 was examined by immunohistochemical technique in 83 cases of colorectal adenocarcinoma.Results In colorectal adenocarcinoma,the positive intensities of P53 and nm23 was associated with tumour depth,histological grade,lymph node metastasis diseases and distant metastasis disease(P0.05).Conclusion P53 and nm23 may play an important role in the development and metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma.It is an useful marker for predictinng the prognosis of colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Objective To observe the effects of cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors and prostaglandin (PG) receptor blocker on hyperalgesia of diabetic rats. Methods Nociceptive paw-withdrawal threshold (NPWT) and thermal latency (TL) of diabetic hyperalgesic rats were tested after subcutaneous injections of COX inhibitors indomethacin and meloxicam, and EP 1 PG receptor blocker SC-19220 into the dorsum of the hindpaw of the rats. Results Indomethacin, a classic inhibitor of COX, produced a significant and long-lasting relief of mechanical hyperalgesia in diabetic hyperalgesic rats. Meloxicam, a selective cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitor, alleviated mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia, but with a shorter duration. SC-19220, a selective EP 1 PG receptor blocker, produced significant relief of mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. Conclusion COX inhibitors and EP 1 PG receptor blocker relieve hyperalgesia of diabetic rats, which suggests that PGs play an important role in inducing and maintaining hyperalgesia in diabatic rats.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the level of H2-Ab1 in the nasal mucosa of mice with allergic rhinitis. METHOD: Twenty-four female 129/sv mice were divided into 2 groups: ovalbumin (OVA) group and control. The allergic rhinitis models were induced by classical method with OVA. After the last challenge, the pathological differences between the two groups were surveyed. The levels of H2-AB1 were measured by ELISA and quantitative real time PCR. RESULT: The expression of H2-Ab1 is higher in subjects with AR than that in controls (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The levels of H2-Ab1 were highly increased in allergic rhinitis group, which might be associated with the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis.

Objective To compare the clinical result of Da Vinci robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy(RDP) and laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy(LDP), and to evaluate the clinical application experience of Da Vinci robotassisted spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy.Methods From March 2013 to June 2015, totally 12 patients undergone RDP and 22 patients undergone LDP in our department were analyzed retrospectively.Results Intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization duration and postoperative fast time in RDP group was less than that in LDP group, the spleen-preserving rate and hospitalization expenses were higher in RDP group(P ＜ 0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of surgery duration and incidence of postoperative complication between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The following-up period was 1-28 months with a mean of (9.94 ± 8.99) months, 1 case of peritoneal infection occurred in RDP group, 1 case of survival with tumor recurrence and 3 case suffered peritoneal infection in LDP group.Others were no metastasis, recurrence or death.Conclusions RDP is safe and feasible, the short-term prognosis is better than that of LDP.It has advantages of cleat 3 D visual field, stability in control,less invasive,and quick recovery.It is worth further clinical use.

Objective To investigate the effect of palliative surgical treatment and minimally invasive biliary drainage of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods Retrospectively collected 244 hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients clinical data in Affiliated Hospital of Qiingdao University between Jan.1,2008 to Dec.31,2011.Survival accoding to different treatment methods was compared using Kaplan-Meier method.The continuous measurement data were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA and the U test.The categorical variable were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact test.Result Among 244 patients, the R1/R2 resection group in 93 patients, the endoscopic retrograde biviar drainage group in 69 patients, the percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage group in 82 patiens.Three groups of median survival time and l-, 2-, 3-year survival rate and median survival time were (13.5 months, 8.9 months, 8.6 months), (63.0％, 24.7％, 7.4％), (33.3％, 3.3％, 0), (32.4％,4.2％, 0), respectively.There was significant difference in the survival time between R1/R2-resections and endoscopic retrograde biviary drainage treatments (P ＜ 0.001).R1/R2-resections and percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage treatments were statistical differences in survival time (P ＜ 0.001).Endoscopic retrograde biviary drainage and percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage treatments were no statistical differences in survival time (P =0.971).Conclusions Palliative surgical treatment for hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients had a more significant effect.Endoscopic retrograde biviary drainage and percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage of minimally invasive jaundice reducing method for prognosis in patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma was same.
