The length and diameter of trachea,bronchus and segmental bronchi were mea-sured from 70 cases (50 adults and 20 children).The length of the segmental bronchi of left lower lobe is always longer thanthat of left upper lobe.The length of the segmental bronchi of right lung showed a regular decreasefrom lower lobe to upper lobe.Using the multivariate statistical analysis the correlations between internalindices such as the length,diameter etc and external indices such as the height dia-meter of chest etc were also studied.

Objective To observe how exogenous estrogen influences the distribution and the expression of NOS positive neurons in the supraoptic nuclei of hypothalamus in the overiectomized female rats. Methods The 2-3-month-old female rats(n=40) were selected as the healthy and nulli-copulatory experimental animals. Rats were divided into following groups: normal control group(n=10), ovariectomized control group(n=10), and two experimental groups that have been injected with estrogen for post-operative 40 days(n=10) and for post-operative 70 days(n=10). Finally, all the animals were infused and the brains were removed. Immunohistochemical (SABC) method was adopted to count the number of NOS poitive neurons and observed the NOS poitive neuronal morphology under the light microscope. The image analysis system was used to test the average gray value of immunoreactivity in NOS positive neurons. Results In the ovariectomized control group, the density of NOS positive neurons in supraoptic nucleus was significantly increased and their shapes were bigger than that of the normal control group(P<0.05). The density and the form of the NOS positive neurons in supraoptic nucleons had no apparent difference between the estrogen for post-operative 40 days group and the ovariectomizeed control group(P>0.05).In the group after estrogen-injection 2 months compared with the normal control group, and the ovariectomized control group, both of the NOS positive neurons' density and the size become significantly decreased, and the staining of cells was lesser in the group injected with estrogen for post-operation 70 days. Conclusion The present results suggest that exogenous estrogen may influence the distribution and the expression of NOS positive neurons in supraoptic nucleus of hypothalamus of ovariectomized female rats.

Background and purpose: Bladder cancer is the most common urological malignancy in our country which seriously threatens human health, and its incidence increased year by year. This study aimed to investigate the effects of hinokitiol on the proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy in human bladder cancer cell lines. Methods:CCK-8 assays were performed to analyze the effects of hinokitiol on the proliferation of J82 cells. Apoptosis rate was determined by lfow cytometry. Cleaved caspase 3, LC3 and P62 protein expression was determined using Western blot. EGFP-LC3 microscopy assay was performed to assess autophagy. Results: Hinokitiol significantly inhibited the proliferation of J82 cells and induced cell apoptosis via caspase pathway. The apoptosis effect of hinokitiol could be partially antagonized by Z-VAD-FMK. Hinokitiol induced autophagy of J82 cells, increased LC3 expression and down-regulated P62 expression. 3-MA is able to rescue Tet-induced cell death. Conclusion:Hinokitiol can inhibit the proliferation of J82 cells and induce cell apoptosis via autophagy activation.

Objective To assess the efficacy of dorsal vein complex(DVC)ligation free in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Methods The data of 25 patients underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy that performed by the same surgeon in our hospital from January 2012 to January 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them,14 cases underwent sutured DVC,11 cases received sutured DVC. Results All the operations were completed with laparoscope and without convert to open surgery. The mean operation time was 246±24.7 min and 236±26.1 min in DVC liga?tion and DVC ligation free,the blood loss was 337.5±120.2 mL and 322.2±104.9 mL in DVC ligation and DVC ligation free,the blood transfusion rate was 14.3%and 18.2%in DVC ligation and DVC ligation free ,the urinary incontinence rate of 6 months after operation was 21.4%and 9.1%in DVC ligation and DVC ligation free,no significant difference was found in the operation time,blood loss,blood transfusion rate and urinary in?continence rate among the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusion DVC ligation free is a safe and effective technique during laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and may simplify the operative procedure and without increase of the risk of bleeding ,which can be more conducive to the early re?covery of postoperative urinary control.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy(ELRP)for prostate cancer patients, and to summarize the experience of surgical treatment. Methods The clinical data of 50 prostate cancer patients who underwent ELRP by the same performer from January 2010 to June 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Results All cases were all successfully completed ,no case was converted to open surgery. The average operation time was 238.8 min,average operative blood loss was 409.1 mL,and intraoperative or postopera?tive blood transfusion was 6(12%). The mean postoperative catheterization time was 23.7(17?38)d. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 15 (10?34)d. The postoperative recovery time of eating was 2?4 d,and the ambulation time was 1?3 d. Totally 3 cases(6%)had lymph node metasta?sis,and 7 cases(14%)had positive surgical margin. Totally 9 cases(18%)had surgery?related complication. Patients were followed up for 6 to 58 months,with an average of 12.5 months. One case(2%)had biochemical recurrence,and the tumor?free survival rate was 84%. At the end of fol?low?up,all of the patients were continent. Conclusion ELRP is safe and effective for the treatment of prostate cancer. With the development of minimally invasive techniques,the applications of RP are increasingly widespread. However,large?scale and long?term follow?up studies are still needed for high?risk prostate cancer patients.
