Objective To investigate changes of GP73 after hepatectomy and its correlations with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence. Methods Perioperative serum GP73 was monitored in hepatic hemangioma and HCC patients undergoing hepatectomy. Clinicopathologic features and follow-up results were collected to evaluate the relationship between serum GP73 level and patients' prognosis.Results There was no statistical difference between preoperative GP73 and postoperative GP73 in hepatic hemangioma group.While preoperative GP73 in HCC group was 9.9(3.7 - 15.8) relative unit (RU),and that on POD3 (postoperative day 3 ) was 9.1 ( 3.4 - 13.3 ) RU,on POD7 was 74.3 ( 1.7 - 9.0) RU,on POD14 was 3.3(2.1 -5.4) RU ( F =72.606,P ＜ 0.001 ).HCC recurred in 21 cases during follow-up,GP73 in recurrent cases [ 11.0 (8.4 - 13.8 ) RU ] was significantly higher than postoperative trough values while it was not different from their preoperative GP73 level [ 9.9 ( 2.9 - 15.0) RU ] ( Z =1.185,P ＞0.05). The preoperative GP73 level between recurrent subgroup and nonrecurrent subgroup was not significantly different (Z =- 1.546,P ＞ 0.05 ).Preoperative GP73 did not correlate to patients' survival.Conclusions Hepatectomy for HCC leads to a significant decrease of GP73 and postoperative HCC recurrence accompanies reelevation of GP73. GP73 could be used as a postoperative monitor for HCC recurrence.

Objective Nanoknife,also called irreversible electroporation,is a new technique of tissue ablation.Short,microsecond electrical pulses with high voltage are applied to the cell membrane,causing pores to form within the membrane and finally leading to cell death.The current study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of the nanoknife in the ablation of the healthy pig pancreas.Methods Three healthy pigs underwent open pancreatic tissue ablation with nanoknife,and blood leukocytes and amylase were detected before and after treatment.Three pigs were sacrificed and gross specimens were collected on day 5,day 10 and day 15 after the procedure,respectively.HE staining and TUNEL staining were conducted and tissue,cellular and subcellular structures were observed under the ordinary microscope and transmission electron microscopy.Results Three experimental pigs recovered well after the procedure.No significant adhesions were found surrounding the pancreatic tissue,and the ablation zone was slightly harder.Transiently increased leukocyte count and amylase level were observed after the ablation,which decreased to the normal level on day 3 after treatment.Under light microscope,the pancreatic tissues in ablation zone appeared to be significantly different from the normal surrounding regions,with more cell death and more apoptotic cells detected by TUNEL staining.The subcellular structure changes also changed under electron microscope.But the main pancreatic duct and its large branches,together with arteriovenous distributions did not change much.Conclusions Nanoknife pancreatic tissue ablation can induce irreversible damage.In the ablation area,pancreatic duct and vascular structures are kept intact.Within a reasonable voltage range and appropriate electrical pulses setting,nanoknife ablation is safe in vivo experiment.

Objective An analysis was carried out for the reports of traditional Chinese medical syndrome patterns of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients in related reports issued in the recent 35 years, thus to explore the characteristics of syndrome patterns of PsA patients and to supply evidence for the syndrome classification. Methods Electronic retrieval was performed in the reports of PsA syndrome analysis issued in the Chinese medical journals from the year of 1979 to 2013. Traditional Chinese medical syndrome information of PsA patients was extracted from the reports, and then was standardized and classified. SPSS 17.0 software was applied for the analysis of occurrence frequency of syndromes, syndrome elements, tongue and pulse states. Results A total of 84 reports were obtained, and 26 reports met the inclusion criteria. In the 26 included reports, 10 kinds of tongue texture, 15 kinds of tongue fur and 22 kinds of pulse states were present. After the standardization of the syndromes, a total of 39 syndrome patterns were obtained. After combination of the similar syndromes, 14 syndromes were included into the analysis. In the 14 included syndrome patterns, the leading 5 patterns were wind-damp heat arthralgia, wind-heat with blood dryness, excessive heat toxin, wind-cold damp arthralgia, and liver-kidney deficiency. Fourteen syndrome elements were extracted from the syndromes, and 9 were included into the analysis after combination of the similar syndrome elements. The top syndrome elements were heat, phlegm-dampness, wind, dryness, deficiency, and blood stasis. Conclusion The syndrome patterns of PsA patients are various, and the syndrome elements of cold, heat, phlegm-dampness, wind, dryness, and blood stasis play an important role in the pathogenesis of PsA.
