Objective To evaluate the prognostic factors affecting postoperative recurrence and progression in patients with superficial bladder transitional cell carcinoma(SBTCC). Methods From 2000 to 2004,150 patients with SBTCC were treated, of which 120 patients were followed up. The possible prognostic factors including clinical and pathological figures were analyzed by Cox's proportional hazard model in these patients. Results The mean fol-low-up period was 84.7 months. The recurrence rates at 3-year,5-year were 27.5% and 36.7% respectively. The main variables affecting recurrence were histological grades,tumor stage,tumor number and recurring tumor,and the first three were the independent risk factors. The progression rotes at 3-year,5-year were 9. 2% and 17.5%. The main variables affecting progression were histological grade,tumor stage, tumor number and recurring tumor, and the first one was the independent risk factor. Conclusion The main variables affecting progression were histological grade, tumor stage,tumor number and recurring tumor,and the first one were the independent risk factor.

Objective To develop an oligonucleotide array to detect single nucleotide mutations in 23S rRNA gene.Methods Primers and probes targeting A2142G.A2143G and C2182T mutations in 23S rRNA gene were designed tp develop an oligonucleotide array.Samples were performed by an asymmetric PCR and the PCR products were hybridized with the specific DNA microarray chips.Non fluorescence-labeled PCR products were cloned into T vectors.The results of oligonucleofide array were confirmed by direct DNA sequencing and evaluated by minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC).Results The results obtained from oligonucleotide microarray were identical to those of direct sequencing.In 54 Helicobacter pylori samples,oligonucleotide microarray indicated that no A-to-C transition at 2142 was found,and the mutant rate of A2143G was 11.11 % (6/54),the mutant rate of C2182T was 12.96% (7/54).A2143C,A2143T,C2182A and C2182G mutations were not found.The other specimens were wild-type.All the above results were the same as that of MIC tests.Conclusions The oligonucleofide microarray is a reliable and accurate genotyping assay for clarithromycin-resistance of Helieobaeter pylofi.It is high-throughput screening method for gastric mucosa and improve the application of strategy for personalized therapy.

Objective To study the effect of gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist(GnRHa)against car-boplation-induced gonadotoxicity in rats. Methods Forty Wistar rats were divided into four groups which received carboplation, GnRHa + carboplation, GnRHa and normal saline respectively(n=10 for each group). Blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta and the levels of blood follicle stimulation hormone (FSH) and estradiol (E<2>) were determined. Both ovaries and uterus of each rat were removed to measure the amount and the maturity of follicles. Body mass and morphological and pathological features of the rats were also observed. Results Compared with that in control group, the body mass of ovary and uterus decreased (P<0.05), and a significant reduction was observed in the number of ovarian follicles at each grade (P<0.05). The levels of E2 significantly lowered (P<0.05) and the level of FSH markedly ascended in group carboplation. Compared with that in group carboplation, the amount of primitive follicles significantly increased in group GnRHa + carboplation (P<0.05), and carboplation showed markedly protective effect on the ovarian and uterine morphological construction of rats. Conclusion Gn-Rha, appliying to preventing the rat reproduction damage in advance, has the certain protective function.

Aim To examine the effect of ? opioid receptor agonist U50488H on the levels of interleukin-6(IL-6) and interleukin-8(IL-8) from angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ) stimulated endothelial cells.Methods In the in vivo study,the modulation of U50488H(1.5 mg?kg~-1) intravenously on the level of AngⅡ was evaluated.In the in vitro study,endothelial cells from human umbilical vein(HUVEC) were cultured and divided into four groups:Control group,AngⅡ group,and AngⅡ plus U50488H and/or nor-BNI(a selective ? opioid receptor antagonist) group.These groups were treated respectively with phosphate buffered solution(PBS),AngⅡ(10~-9~10~-5 mol?L~-1),and AngⅡ in the presence of U50488H and/or nor-BNI for 0~24 hours.Culture supernatant and endothelial cells were collected at 0,3,6,12 and 24 h.IL-6 and IL8 levels in culture supernatant were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results The level of AngⅡ in the blood was significantly decreased following U50488H intravenously,which was blocked by nor-BNI administration(2 mg?kg~-1).AngⅡ stimulated the productions of IL-6 and IL-8 from HUVEC in the dose-dependent and time-dependent manners.U50488H at 10~-5 mol?L~-1 significantly inhibited this process,and the inhibitory effect of U50488H was blocked by nor-BNI,which itself had no effect.Conclusion ? opioid receptor may play a role in the process of anti-inflammation via down regulation of AngⅡ level and inhibition of the AngⅡ-stimulated IL-6 and IL-8 productions from endothelium cells.

Objective To investigate the application value of MR SWI and DWI in the diagnosis of liver lesions.Methods 1 300 patients underwent 1.5T MRI scan of liver,no pathology or follow-up examination results of patients with focal liver lesions were excluded,147 patients were included and underwent conventional magnetic resonance(MRI),DWI and SWI.By 2 senior radiologists with double blind method of conventional MRI and MRI combined with DWI and SWI image reading,the feature and enhancement pattern of signal intensity were evaluated.Kappa test was used to evaluate the consistency of the diagnosis of 2 physicians.The pathological examination and comprehensive follow-up results were used as the gold standard.The diagnostic accuracy of the two groups was compared.Results 2 doctors had good consistency in the image diagnosis of the two groups.The Kappa values of conventional MRI and conventional MRI combined with DWI and SWI images were 0.912 and 0.936,respectively.The conventional MRI diagnosed primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in 40 cases,bile duct cancer cells (ICC) in 13 cases,liver metastasis (HMs) in 14 cases,cavernous hemangioma of the liver (CHL) in 17 cases.The conventional MRI combined with DWI and SWI diagnosed HCC in 50 cases,ICC in 20 cases,HMs in 20 cases,CHL in 24 cases,the differences were statistically significant (x2 =5.660,5.250,5.560,6.640,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Conventional MRI combined with DWI and SWI can provide additional valuable information and improve diagnostic performance for liver lesions.
