Objective To study the treatment of intra-abdominal hypertension syndrome (IAHS) secondary to fulminant acute pancreatitis(FAP). MethodsWe retrospectively analyse therapeutic results of 14 IAHS cases secondary to FAP during the period of 1998～2003. ResultsFour out of the 6 cases receiving nonoperative therapy died with motality rate of 67.7% (4/6). Two out of the 8 cases treated by early surgery died. The motality rate was 25% (2/8), which was significantly different from that treated conservatively . ConclusionModerate to severe IAHS cases secondary to fulminant acute pancreatitis should undergo exploration in the early phase of disease to improve the prognosis of FAP.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of primary liver cancer(PLC) with bile duct cancer thrombus (BDT). Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with PLC and BDT admitted in the past 8 years were analyzed retrospectively . Results The major clinical manifestations were the symptoms of primary liver cancer and obstructive jaundice. The correct diagnosis rate was 76.2% before operation. The diagnosis rate of B-us, CT, MRI, ERCP and PTC was 14.3%, 9.52%, 14.3%, 71.4% and 100% respectively. The operative procedures included hepatectomy with removal of BDT ( n =10), hepatectomy combined with extrahepatic bile duct resection ( n =5), thrombectomy through choledochotomy with TACE ( n =3), removal of BDT with HAI ( n =3). The 3,5-year survival rate were 43.20% and 24.60% respectively. Conclusions Multi-examinations should be applied in the diagnosis of PLC with BDT. The comprehensive therapy including surgery and other therapies must be adoptted for PLC with BDT.

Objective To explore the effect of nucleos(t)ide analog (NA)antiviral treatment on the pathological differentiation of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)and the prognostic factors of HCC.Methods Totally 127 patients with HBV-related HCC who were hospitalized and received partial hepatectomy in First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from March 2007 to November 2013 were included in this study.Sixteen cases received antiviral treatment before operation and the remaining 111 cases had no history of NA treatment.The differences of histopathological grading were compared between the two groups.Twenty-nine patients received antiviral treatment for the first time after surgery,and the rest 82 patients did not.All these patients were followed up for survival and recurrence.Multivariate analysis was used to explore the prognostic factors for HCC.The categorical variables were analyzed byχ2 test or Fisher exact test.Survival rate was compared with Log-rank test. Univariate or multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of survival. Results The proportions of well-,moderately- or poorly-differentiated HCC in patients with antiviral treatment before surgery were 18.75 %,68.75 % and 12.5 %,respectively.Whereas the proportions in those without treatment were 16.22%,66.67% and 17.11 %,respectively.There was no significant difference in histopathological grading of HCC between the two groups (χ2=0.224,P =0.885 ).The overall median survival time was 39 months.The 6-month,1-and 2-year survival rates were 91 .7%, 77.5 % and 59.3%,respectively.The 6-month,1- and 2-year survival rate of postoperative antiviral treatment were 96.3%,92.4% and 78.5 %,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of no antiviral treatment group (85 .9%,70.0% and 48.5 %,respectively;χ2= 6.967,P = 0.008 ). Univariate analysis showed that tumor number,size,portal vein transfer,AFP level,postoperative antiviral treatment,histopathological grading,TNM staging,BCLC staging,γ-GT and PTA were prognostic factors for postoperative HCC survival.Multivariate analysis showed that AFP level (HR=1 , 95 %CI :1 .0004—1 .002,P =0.004),postoperative antiviral treatment (HR =0.38,95 %CI :0.38—0.15 ,P =0.04)and BCLC stage (B vs A:HR=1 .55 ,95 %CI :0.76—3.18;C vs A:HR=3.63,95 %CI :1 .31 —10.09,P =0.04)were independent prognostic factors.Conclusions Preoperative antiviral treatment has no impact on the histopathological grading of HCC. BCLC stage, AFP level and postoperative antiviral treatment are independent prognostic factors for HBV-related HCC.

Objective To investigate the relationship between NF-kB activity of pancreatic acinar cells(PAC) and blood inflammatory cytokines ( IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-? and ICAM-1) in rat's ANP. Methods Fourty rats were randomly divided into two groups: ANP model group and contrast group. ANP was induced by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the pancreatic duct. NF-KB activity in the cell nuclear and IkBa activity in the cell spasm of PAC were measured by EMSA and Western-blot. Inflammatory cytokines were measured by ELISA. Results ANP model's NF-KB activity increased [(31.4?5.7) ?mol/L vs. (8.3?2.4) ?mol/L.(39. 4 ? 6. 4) ?mol/L vs. (10.7 ?2.6) ?mol/L.

Objective To assess the effect of intravenous infusion of octreotide in prevention of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods The clinical data of 74 cases of pancreaticoduodenectomy performed from January 1996 to July 2003 were retrospectively reviewed. These included 36 cases in control group in which octreotide was not adminstered,and 38 cases in octreotide group in which octreotide was administered by intravenous infusion of 0.5?g/( kg?h) for 12 hours per day from the operative day to postoperative day 7. The study parameters included clinical manifestation,drainage from peritioned cavity and the amount of drainage of pancreatic fluid. Results The drainage of pancreatic fluid at postoperative day 1,3,5 the in octreotide group was significantly less than those in the control group,the average hospital stay and the incidence of pancreatic fistula were significantly lower than those in the control group,and the drainage of pancreatic fluid was significantly increased after the withdrawal of octreotide in the octreotide group. Conclusions Intravenous infusion of octreotide can significantly lower the incidence of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Objective To establish a method of gene mutation detection for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) by using sequencing, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) analysis and T-A cloning. Methods The blood samples of 33 patients with 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) , 2 patients with 17α-hydroxylase deficiency (17-OHD) , the parents of all the patients and 105 healthy children were collected. Genomic DNA were extracted form the blood samples. To detect the gene mutation of CYP21A2,highly specific primers for CYP21A2 gene were designed according to the sequence differences between CYP21A2 gene and its pseudogene. The whole CYP21A2 gene was amplified and sequenced. SNP analysis and TA cloning of PCR products were also carried out. The molecular diagnosis of 17-OHD was based on the amplification and sequencing of CYP17A1 gene. Results The corresponding gene mutations was determined in all the patients based on the method established in this study. Thirteen mutations of CYP21A2 gene were identified in 33 patients with 21-OHD. The 3 most frequent mutation of CYP21A2 gene were IVS2-13A/C >G, p. I172N and chimeric mutation, which accounted for 32% (21/66) ,27% (18/66) and 15% (10/66) respectively. Ninety-one persent mutations of CYP21A2 gene resulted from pseudogene conversion. In 2 patients with 17-OHD, homozygous mutations of CYP17A1 gene, IVS4-6A > G and p. 487_489del were identified separately. All the gene mutations detected in the patients were inherited from their parents. No mutation of CYP21A2 gene or CYP17A1 gene was found in the healthy children. Conclusion A method of gene mutation detection for CAH has been established. It will be beneficial to clinical diagnosis of CAH.
