Objective To assess the clinical value of microguidewire looping technique in superselective catheterization of the acute angled artery. Methods Manipulating the microguide wire into a U shaped loop and simultaneus withdrawal of the microguidewire and microcatheter was performed when the tip of the microguidewire simultaneous got into the target artery and following by slowly and simultaneously withdrawing the microguidewire and microcatheter until the tip of the microguidewire entering into the target artery for a certain length and finally pushed the microcatheter into the target artery slowly. Results Eighteen out of 21 patients with acute angled target artery were successfully catheterized through this approach with technical success rate of 86%, without any complications. Conclusions Microguidewire looping technique is a feasible method for superselective catheterization of the acute angled artery when the routine approach failed.

Aim To observe the effect of DL-buthionine s ulfoximine(DL-BSO) on the radiosensitivity of rat C 6 glioma cells under the a erobic and the hypoxic condition. Methods The source of radiati on was 60Co ?-rays. The rats C 6 glioma cells were treated by radia tion alone or DL-BSO+radiation under the aerobic and the hypoxic condition. Col ony forming assay was used to measure effects of DL-BSO on the radiosensitivity . Results Radiosensitive effect of DL-BSO was time-depedent u nder the aerobic condition. After treatment with 0.1 mmol?L -1 DL-BSO fo r 2, 6, 12 hours, the radiosensitive effect was not observed, whereas an enhance ment of radiosensitivity was seen at 24 and 48 hours. An enhancement of radiosen sitivity was seen at 2～48 hours after treatment with 0.1 mmol?L -1 DL-B SO under the hypoxic condition. The radiosensitive effects related to DL-BSO co ncentration under the aerobic and the hypoxic condition. Conclusion Both under the aerobic and the hypoxic conditions DL-BSO can increase the radio sensitivity of rat C 6 glioma cells. DL-BSO increased the rat C 6 gliom a cells radiosensitivity especially under the hypoxic condition, and radiosensit ive effect of DL-BSO is time and concentration-dependent.

AIM: To investigate the protective effects and its mechanism of Jinkui Gastric Drug(JK). METHODS: The model of gastric mucosal lesion in rats induced by hydrochloride acid-aspirin was used.The indexes of gastric mucosal lesion in JK and control groups were observed.The contents of nitric oxide(NO) and the activity of nitric oxide synthase(NOS) in blood serum and gastric tissue in rats,the levels of 6-keto-PGF_(1?),thromboxane B_2(TXB_2) in blood plasma and epidermal growth factor(EGF) in blood serum were examined. RESULTS: The index of gastric mucosal lesion after administration of JK reduced obviously.The contents of NO and the activity of NOS in serum and gastric tissue increased markedly.The levels of 6-keto-PGF_(1?),TXB_2 and EGF increased significantly. CONCLUSION: JK can protect experimental gastric mucosal lesion and its mechanism may be related to increasing the protective factors.

Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods A total of 45 cases of BPH were treated by transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection of prostate (PKRP) and were followed up for 3-10 months.Results The weight of the resected prostate was 28-105 g with an average of (47?16) g, the operation time was 15-120 min with an average of (50?12) min. No case needed blood transfusion during the operation and no transurethral resection syndrome occurred. The mean catheterization time was 4 d and the mean postoperative hospital stay was 7 d. Peak urine flow increased from (7.3?1.5) ml/s to (16.2?4. 4) ml/s and IPSS decreased from (27.6?1.3) to (5.8?1.0) in 3 months postoperatively. Conclusion Transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection of prostate is effective and safe with less complications.

Aim To study the effect of Rutoside (Ru) on pancreatic acinar cell apoptosis in rats with acute pancreatitis(AP). Methods The AP model in rats was induced by retrograde injection of 3% sodium taurocholate into biliopancreatic duct. Ru (15, 30 and 60 mg?kg~ -1 ?h~ -1 )was administered by intravenous infusion for 6 hours immediately after the induction of AP.The histopathological changes of pancreas were observed under light microscope and electronic microscope.A terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotion nick end labeling(TUNEL) method was used to detect apotosis of pancreatic acinar cell and apoptosis immunohistochemical method. Results Ru (15, 30 and 60 mg?kg~ -1 ?h~ -1 ) improved the histopathological changes of pancreas significantly.The apotosis index of pancreatic acinar cells was significantly higher than that the AP model group. The gray value of Fas was lower than that of the AP model group. Immuno-staining revealed that moderate to strong FasL immunoreactivity was present in the cytoplasm of the acini of all groups.But in AP model group,the gray value of FasL was lower than that in Ru-treated groups.AI was positively correlated with the gray value of Fas,and was negatively correlated with the gray value of FasL and the severity of pancreas damages. Conclusion The protective effect of Ru on AP may be concerned with the induction of apoptosis in injured pancreatic acinar cells.And the Fas/FasL system may contribute to the process.

Objective To improve the diagnosis and treatment of adenocarcinoma of bladder. Methods The data of 20 cases of adenocarcinoma of bladder from 1986 to 2004 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent operation and the diagnosis was proven by histopathologic examination. Results Eighteen cases were primary adenocarcinoma of bladder,8 cases applied to radical cystectomy and 10 cases partial cystectomy. Two cases were urachal adenocarcinoma,and received extended partial cystectomy.Seventeen patients were followed up for 3 months to 5 years. The one-year survival rate was 52.9% (9/17),two-year survival rate 41.2% (7/17),and five-year survival rate 29.4% (5/17). Conclusion Radical total cystectomy is the best choice for primary adenocarcinoma of bladder and extended partial cystectomy for urachal adenocarcinoma. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy after operation can improve the treatment effect.

Aim To investigate effects and the mechanism of rutoside (Ru) on lung injury during experimental acute pancreatitis (AP) . Methods The model of AP was induced by retrograde injection of Sodium Taurocholate(STC)into biliopancreatic duct in rat. Ru (15,30,60 mg?kg -1 ?h -1 ) was administered by intravenous infusion for 6 hours immediately after the induction of AP. Indexes of blood gas analysis, the wet/dry lung ratio and pathological changes of lung tissue were observed and we also measured levels of TNF-?, ICAM-1and NF-?B. Result Ru(60 mg?kg -1 )increased the arterial PO_2, which decreased in AP rats. Ru (30,60 mg?kg -1 ) could decrease the wet/dry lung ratio, and improve pathological changes of lung tissue. Ru(15,30,60 mg?kg -1 ) could decrease levels of TNF-?, ICAM-1, and NF-?B. Conclusion The study indicates that Ru administered by intravenous infusion exerts certain protective effects on lung injury in experimental AP rats by decreasing levels of TNF-?, ICAM-1 and NF-?B.

Total glucosides of paeony ( TGP ) , an extract of Paeonia Lacti-flora Pall were investigated for its effect on the synthesis of leukotriene B_4 ( LTB_4 ) by peritoneal macrophages ( PM?). LTB4, generated by 10~9~15 ? 10~10/L PM? with ionophore A_23187 , were measured with RP-HPLC. Suppression of releasing LTB_4 from PM? by TGP ( 100 mg/L ) was as much as the same dose of Flufenamic acid, but the action of TGP was slower. TGP significantly inhibited the synthesis of LTB_4 by PM? in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration of TGP required to obtain 50% inhibition ( IC_50 ) of formation of LTB_4 was 0.66mg/L. The data suggested antiinflam-matory and immunomodulatory action of TGP were related to its suppression of releasing LTB_4
