ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of different operative methods for treating rebleeding in patients with portal hypertension(PHT). MethodsThe clinical data of 66 patients with postoperative ebleeding out of 373 PHT cases during the last 30 years was retrospectively analyzed. Their first operations were splenectomy, portoazygous devascularization, various non-selective shunt and combined operation(devascularization combined with shunt), of which, the rebleeding rate were 26.67 %, 17.86 %, 14.58 % and 4.35 %, respectively. Among 55 cases receiving re-operation, there were 42 with distal esophago-fundusectomy, 11 mesocaval shunt(MCS)and 2 re-devascularization. The other 11 cases received nonoperative therapy. ResultsThe mortality, mean follow-up time, rebleeding rate and encephalopathy rate were 9.52% (4/42), 11 years,9.52% (4/42)and 14.29% (6/42)in distal esophago-fundusectomy group;0,7.5 years,0 and 9.09% (1/11)in MCS group. All 2 cases in re-devascularization group died within one postoperative month. All 11 cases in non-operative group were with portal hypertension gastropathy(PHG). ConelusionCombined operation may effectively reduce postoperative rebleeding rate in PHT cases and MCS is a relatively ideal method for treating rebleeding.

Diverticulitis of colon,the inflammation of colonic diverticulars,is connected with dietary,age and disorder of colonic environment.Due to the different cultures between western contries and orient nations,the morbidity,predilection site,clinical manifestation and management are different in diverticulitis of colons.Computed tomography(CT)has been the key diagnosic method,and it is able to guide transfixion pins to treat diverticulitis of colon.After medical treatment,most of patients can be relaxed,and only someone need operations.

The classical prescriptions in Typhoid Miscellaneous Disease can be used to alleviate the common hung cancer symptoms and complications like fever, cough, pain and pleural effusion effectively. The preoperative medication can improve lung cancer patients’ surgical tolerance, and postoperative medication can facilitate patients’ postoperative rehabilitation. And if combined with chemotherapy, they cound reduce toxicity and enhance efficiency, enhance the patients’ immunity and improve their life quality. Research shows that classical prescriptions can improve the immunity of lung cancer model mice, facilitate apoptosis of tumor cell and control its migration. This paper sumed up the clinical and experimental research of lung cancer treatment with classical prescriptions in recent 5 years.

Objective To investigate the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation on the stroke.Methods 120 cases of stroke divided into rehabilitation group(60 cases)and control group(60 cases).They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA),Modified Barthel Index(MBI),and Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS)before and 1 month,3 months and 6 months after treatment respectively.Results The scores of FMA,MBI and SWLS were improved significantly in rehabilitation group,especially in the 1st month,while that of control group presented the tendency of decline.Conclusion Comprehensive rehabilitation is effective on motion function,activity of daily living and quality of life of stroke patients.

Objective By comparing the plasma levels of adiponectin respectively in colorectal carcinoma patients to healthy controls to discuss the relationship between adiponectin and colorectal carcinoma. Methods Plasma samples collected from 38 colorectal cancer cases, 38 healthy controls, respectively, were analyzed with a specific ELISA assay. Results The mean adiponectin levels in colorectal cancer pa-tients and healthy controls were 159.89 and 184.5 pg/mL,respectively. Obviously colorectal cancer patients had significantly lower plasma adiponectin concentrations compared with healthy controls(P=0.001). And a inverse correlation was found between plasma adiponectin levels and tumor size with significantly lower levels of adiponectin in tumors≥5 cm (P=0.04), while no similar relationship was found between adiponectin and p53, Dukes stages(P>0.05). Conclusions Lower plasma levels of adiponectin are associated with color-ectal carcinogenesis closely. And the lower plasma levels of diponectin were positively related to the degree of tumor size. It can presume that adiponectin play a vital role in the process of colorectal carcinogenesis.

Objective To define the indications and evaluate the results of various surgical treatment options in patients with nonparasitic hepatic cysts. Methods The clinical data of 284 patients with nonparasitic hepatic cysts treated in our hospital from January 1995 to December 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Percutaneous aspiration and sclerotherapy were performed in 161 cases and complications occurred in 9 (5.59%), recurrence in 53 (32.92%) and the mortality was 0%.Open surgery was conducted in 71 cases and the complications occurred in 16 (22.54%), recurrence in 8 cases (11.27%) and the mortality was 2.82%. Laparoscopic surgery was employed in 52 cases and complications occurred in 7 ( 13.46%), recurrence in 6 (11.54%) and the mortality was 1.92%.Conclusion There is currently no general agreement in the literature concerning when nonparasitic hepatic cysts should be treated. Laparoscopic surgery was more favorable than other therapeutic options.However, we should choose individually suitable methods according to different clinical symptom of patients.

Objective To study the effect of low molecular weight heparin on the growth and metastasis of hepatocarcinoma in vivo Methods Metastatic model simulating human hepatocarcinoma was established by orthotopic implantation of the tumor tissue into nude mice Animals were randomly divided and submitted to different treatment groups: control group treated with nornal saline, chemotherapy group with 5 FU and CDDP i p , Fragmin group (low molecular heparin), combination group After 5 weeks of treatment, tumor volume、 microvessel density (MVD)、 VEGF smoothmuscle actin (SMA) and metastasis in Fragmin group significantly decreased and tumor inhibitive rate increased ( P

Objective To detect the expression and function of ZNRF3 in different kinds of thyroid cancer tissues and cells.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of ZNRF3 protein in 35 cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma and 10 cases of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma.The expressions of ZNRF3 gene in TPC-1 and 8505C were detected by RT-PCR,and the cell lines were derived from papillary thyroid carcinoma and poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma respectively.After silenced ZNRF3 gene expression with lentivirus,the proliferation ability of TPC-1 cells were detected with CCK-8,the invasion and metastasis ability of TPC-1 cells were detected with Transwell.Results According to results of immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR,the expressions of ZNRF3 in papillary thyroid carcinoma cells and tissues were higher than those in poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma cells and tissues,the differences were statistically significant (4.83±0.44 vs.3.13 ±0.59,t =2.20,P ＜0.05;1.01±0.06 vs.0.21±0.04,t =11.80,P＜0.01).After ZNRF3 geng silencing,according to the results of CCK8,the proliferation ability of TPC-1 cells was significantly enhanced in 72 h,the difference was statistically significant (0.96 ± 0.10 vs.0.64 ± 0.05,t =3.19,P ＜ 0.05);and according to the results of Transwell,the TPC-1 cell's invasion (0.12 ± 0.01 vs.0.09 ±0.00,t =5.48,P＜0.01) and migration (0.22 ±-0.01 vs.0.17 ±0.01,t =4.58,P ＜0.05) also increased,the differences were statistically significant.Conclusion The expression of ZNRF3 in papillary thyroid carcinoma is higher than that in poorly differentiated thyroid cancer.ZNRF3 is tumor suppressor gene in the thyroid tumors.
