Objective To investigate expression of E-cadherin (E-cad) and ?-catenin (?-Cat) in pancreatic carcinoma and its relationship with the biological behavior. Methods Immunohistochemistry staining (PicTure TM two steps method) was used to detect E-cad and ?-Cat expression in 47 specimens of paraffin-embeded pancreatic carcinoma and 17 normal pancreas around tumors. Results E-cad and ?-Cat were expressed by normal ductal and acinar cells with typical membranous staining at the intercellular junctions. 17 normal specimens of pancreas strongly expressed E-cad and ?-Cat. The loss and reduction rate of E-cad expression in pancreatic carcinoma was 53.2%(25/47). The significant relationship was observed between low E-cad expression and differentiation,high hyperplastic grade and metastasis (P0.05). There was a positive relationship between the expression of E-cad and ?-Cat in the same specimen (r=0.88,P

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologieal features of serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas. Methods Clinicopathological analysis, histochemieal and immunohistochemical studies were performed in 12 cases of serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas with follow-up. Results The patients included 9 females and 3 males who ranged in age from 35 to 70 (mean=51.5). Seven patients were discov-ered by check-up incidentally and 5 for the symptoms as upper abdominal uncomfortable or pain. Tumors varied in size from 2.0 cm to 13 cm in maximal diameter(mean=6.0 cm), and all had a multicystic appear-ance. Histologically, all tumors were composed of numerous microcysts lined by a single layer of cuboidal or flattened cells. The tumor cells contained clear cytoplasm with glycogen and centrally located round nuclei mostly uniform without any atypia. Mitoses were very rare or absent. Histochemically, the tumor cells were positive for PAS and negative for AB-PAS. Immunohistochemieally, the tumor cells revealed diffuse positivi-ty of cytokeratins and epithelial membrane antigen, whereas CEA, CgA, Syn, CD34, Vimentin, P53 and S-100 protein were negative. Follow-up in 10 patients (range from 12 to 71 months) showed no recurrence of serous cystadenomas. Conclusion Serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas is an extremely rare tumor. It is often non-symptomatic. Its diagnosis is mainly dependent on its unique morphological immunohistochemical features. It's biology behavior is necessary to study.

[Objective]To obtain the normal linear parameters of different resection levels of normal proximal tibia in Chinese people, and discuss the influence of the gender and resection level on the design of the tibia prosthesis. [Methods]Thirty-six normal Chinese people (36 left knees, 18 males and 18 females), with an average age of 43 years (range 18～55 years) were enrolled in this study.Original CT image data were used to set up three-dimensional model of Chinese normal knees.The related linear parameters of different proximal tibia sections were measured and compared.[Results]Parameters of mediolateral (ML) ,medial and latera anteroposteriordimensions(MAP/ LAP) and the aspect ratio(AP/ML) of the resect proximal tibia surface were obtained. The parameters were confirmed by statistics analysis.[Conclusion]The geometry and anatomy of the knee in Chinese people have significant differences from the western people.The prosthesis designed by western people should be choosen carefully.Sex and resection levels should be taken into account in designing tibia prosthesis and or choosing the imported prosthesis in the total knee arthroplasty.

[Objective]To investigate the indications,complications and mid-term results of total knee arthroplasties using rotating hinge knee prosthesis. [Methods]Thirty total knee arthroplasties using rotating hinge prosthesis were performed in twenty-eight patients from July 1998 to July 2008.Seven patients were male and twenty-one patients were female.The average age was 62 years(42-75 years).The diagnosis included osteoarthritis in 8 patients,rheumatoid arthritis in 2 patients,traumatic arthritis in 3 patients,Paget's disease patient,serious genu valgum in 7 patients and 10 failure TKAs.All patients were followed up for 12 to 120 months.The patients were evaluated according to knee score system and the complications were observed.[Results]The pain was relieved and function was improved in all knees.The average knee pain score increased from 19.5 to 77.9,and knee function score from 22.5 to 50.5.Range of motion of knees increased from 58.4?to 72.8?.No revision was needed in all patients,The complications included anterior knee pain(8 cases),extension lag(5 cases),prosthesis broken(1 case) and patella tendon rupture(1 case).[Conclusion]The mid-term results of total knee arthroplasty using rotating hinge knee for severe knee deformity are satisfactory.Complications should be prevented carefully.

Objective To study the renal protective effects of ulinastatin in rats with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS). Methods Thirty-six Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups:control group ,model group and treatment group. The MODS models were produced by injecting lipopolysaccharide(LPS) through the sublingual vein into the rats. Ulinastatin was injected into the sublingual vein of the rats in treatment group, LPS was injected into rats in the same way after 10 minutes. On the second hour and the sixth hour after treatment, serum and renal tissue samples were collected from the rats to determine the level of TNF-?,IL-6, IL-1?, iNOS by RIA.The pathologic changes of renal tissue was examined. Results The levels of TNF-?,IL-6, IL-1?, iNOS of serum and renal tissue in treatment group were obviously lower than in model group (P

Objective To summarize the experience of humane care on our voluntary blood donors.Methods From March 1,2017 to March 31,2017,281 blood donors were enrolled,called the intervened group,from the fixed blood donation street-spot to investigate their satisfaction and their willingness to donate blood again or not.Meanwhile,168 donors who were not intervened were also observed,called the control group.Results In the intervention group,182 were former blood donors,and 64.5％ of the respondents believed that the staff was more trustworthy than before.And 78.2％ of the respondents expressed that the communication ability with blood donors was better than before.The incidence of adverse effect of blood donation in the 281 donors was only 0.71％,and all of them were willing to donate again,which was better than the control group.Conclusion Humanistic care during voluntary blood donation is beneficial to improve the quality of service,the satisfaction of blood donation,and help retaining the blood donors.

Objective To investigate the effect of nicardipine on perioperative insulin sensitivity in patients with essential hypertension(EH). Methods Thirty-eight patients undergoing lobectomy continuously after induction of anesthesia in group N, while normal saline was infused in group C instead of nicardipine. Blood samples were taken immediately before induction of anesthesia(T_0), 2 h after skin incision(T_1) ,4 h after surgery(T_2) and 24 h after surgery(T_3). Blood glucose(BG) and plasma insulin (Ins) were measured. The Insulin sensitivity index (ISI) was calculated. Results Values of BG at T_2and T_3 in group C were higher than those at T_0 (P<0. 05). Value of Ins at T_2 in group C was higher than that at T_0 (P<0. 05),which at T_3 in group C was significantly higher than that at T_0 (P<0. 01). ISI at T_2 in group C was lower than that at T_0 (P<0. 05) ,which at T_3 in group C was lower significantly than that at T_0 (P<0. 01). Values of BG and Ins at T_3 in group N were higher than those at T_0 (P<0. 05), ISI at T_3 in group N was lower than that at T_0 (P<0. 05). Value of BG at T_2 was significantly lower in group N than that in group C(P<0. 05). Value of Ins at T_3 was significantly lower in group N than that in group C(P<0. 01). ISI at T_2 and T_3 in group N was min~(-1) infused continuously during and after lobectomy can increase significantly insulin sensitivity and improve postopertive insulin resistance state in EH patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of propofol preconditioning on endoplasmic reticulum stress induced by hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) in HEPG2 cells.Methods HEPG2 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table:control group (group C),propofol group (group P),H/R group and H/R + propofol preconditioning group (group PP).In group C,the cells were cultured routinely for 42 h.In group H/R,after being cultured routinely for 6 h,the cells were exposed to 1％ O2 + 5％ CO2 + 94％ N2 for 12 h followed by 12 h reoxygenation.In group PP,the cells were cultured for 6 h in the culture medium containing propofol 10 μmol/L (final concentration),and then H/R was induced.The cell viability was detected by MTT assay.The expression of immunoglobulin heavy chain-binding protein (BIP),C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and activated caspase-3 was determined by Western blot.The expression of BIP,CHOP and caspase-3 mRNA was determined by RT-PCR.Results Compared with group C,the cell viability was significantly decreased,and the expression of BIP,CHOP and activated caspase-3 protein and mRNA was up-regnlated in H/R and PP groups,and no significant changes were found in the parameters mentioned above in group P.Compared with group H/R,the cell viability was significantly increased,and the expression of BIP,CHOP and activated caspase-3 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in PP group.Conclusion Propofol preconditioning can promote the cell proliferation and attenuate H/R injury to HEPG2 cells through inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Objective: To study the relationships between the expressions of E-cadherin and ki-67 in the tissues of heatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and the prognosis of HCC patients after hepatectomy as well as their clinical pathology. Methods: We examine the expressions of E-cadherin and ki-67 in 255 HCC tissues by tissue microarray and PV-6000 two-step method of immunohistochemistry and analyze the correlations between their expressions and clinical pathological data, 1-year recurrent rate and overall survival time after hepatectomy. Results: The expression of E-cadherin correlated with the tumor size and the 1-year recurrent rate of positive group was higher than that of the negative group. The expression of ki-67 correlated with vascular invasion and differentiation of the tumor, the positive group showed a higher 1-year recurrent rate and a shorter overall survival time. Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the expression of ki-67 was an independent risky factor. Conclusions: The negative expression of E-cadherin and the positive expression of ki-67 predict a higher recurrent rate of early stage. The expression of ki-67 is an independent risky factor which can be used to evaluate the prognosis of patients with HCC after hepatectomy.

For observation of the therapeutic effect of some foods on hyperlipi-demia in men, study was perfomed with subjects of hyperlipidemia by using mushroom, soya bean meat, beans, garlic, spring onions, prawn, chives, walnut seeds, peanut seeds, fishes etc. After 3 months treatment, the average values of serum total cholesterol and triglyceride were decreased significantly. The percentage of serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the total cholesterol was increased from 24.7% to 31.3%; the percentage of serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was decreased from 61.8% to 49.2%. The curative rates of subjects with hypercholesterolemia were 93.3%, and the subjects with hypertriglyceridemia were only 50.0% and 57.1%. The effective rates were 79-87%.
