OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical efficacy of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) for bilateral ureteral stones with renal colic in emergency.
METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 86 patients suffered with sudden renal colic due to bilateral ureteral stones and treated with ESWL between January 2005 and January 2009.
RESULTSThe success rate was 74.4% after a single ESWL session, and the overall success rate was 82.6%. Significant difference in stone length was observed between successful group and failed group (P<0.01). The stone position did not produce significant impact on the outcome of the treatment (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONESWL is an effective treatment modality in emergency for small-length and short-term obstruction bilateral ureteral stones with remal colic.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the factors affecting the efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for renal calculi.
METHODSBetween January, 2004 and January, 2007, 316 patients (212 men and 104 women) with renal stone underwent ESWL. The correlations of the patients' age, gender, body mass index (BMI), disease course, pain, hematuria, stone size, location, side, number and hydronephrosis to the outcome of the treatment was analyzed. The treatment success was defined as complete clearance of the stones or residual stone fragments <0.4 cm, and ESWL was considered unsuccessful with residual stones>0.4 cm.
RESULTSThe overall success rate was 75.3% (238/316) in these patients. Significant difference in stone clearance rates was observed in patients with stone size of 0.5-1.0 cm (90.3%, 167/185), 1.0-2.0 cma(69.6%, 55/79), and >2.0 cm (30.8%, 16/52) (P<0.05). The success rates differed significantly between cases of pelvic stones (83.1%, 118/142) and those of caliceal stones (69.0%, 120/174) (P<0.05). But in cases of caliceal stones, the success rates were comparable between cases with stones at the upper calyx (71.7%, 43/60), middle calyx (68.9%, 31/45), and lower calix (66.7%, 46/69) (P>0.05). Patients with single stones had significantly higher success rate (82.9%,170/205) than those with multiple stones (61.3%, 68/111) (P<0.05). The patients' gender, age, disease course, pain, hematuria, stone side and hydronephrosis did not produce significant impact on the outcome of the treatment (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONStone size, location and quantity are significant independent factors affecting the outcome of ESWL for renal stones.

5.Expression of P27kip1 in renal cell carcinoma and its clinical significance.
Journal of Southern Medical University 2010;30(8):1883-1889
OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27kip1 in renal cell carcinoma and its clinical significance.
METHODSThe expressions of p27kip1 mRNA and protein were evaluated using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting and immunohistochemistry with tissue chip technique in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissues, adjacent tissues and 786-0 cell line. The relationship between the expression of p27kip1 and the tumor size, the clinical stage, pathological type and stage were evaluated, and the results by the 3 methods were analyzed to evaluate the relationship between the mRNA and protein of p27kip1.
RESULTSThe expression of p27kip1 protein (detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting) in RCC tissue was significantly lower than that in the adjacent normal tissues (P<0.05). The expression of p27kip1 mRNA (by RT-PCR) showed no significant difference between the two groups. p27kip1 protein expression was found to be inversely correlated to the tumor grade and clinical stage (P<0.05). Western blotting and immunohistochemistry showed a high coincidence rate in the detection of P27kip1 protein expression in RCC samples (P<0.001, K=0.828).
CONCLUSIONp27kip1 mRNA expression shows no difference between RCC and normal tissues, while the protein expression is significantly lower in the cancer tissues, suggesting a regulatory mechanism of p27kip1 expression at the transcriptional level. Low expression of p27kip1 protein may promote the development and progression of RCC. p27kip1 protein may serve as a diagnostic and prognostic marker of RCC.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of MN/CAIX in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and assess the value of MN/CAIX in the diagnosis of RCC.
METHODSRT-PCR was employed to detect MN/CAIX mRNA in the carcinoma tissue and peripheral blood of 62 patients with RCC, using normal renal tissue and peripheral blood sample from 32 patients without RCC as control. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect MN/CAIX protein in the tissue specimens of clear cell RCC (n=36), non-clear cell renal neoplasm (n=17) and normal kidney (n=16).
RESULTSThe positivity rate of MN/CAIX mRNA was 82.3% (51/62) in renal carcinoma tissues and 54.8% (34/62) in the peripheral blood from patients with RCC, significantly higher than the rates in the control cases (P<0.05). In cases of clear cell renal cell carcinoma, the positivity rate of MN/CAIX mRNA was 98% (49/50) in the carcinoma tissues and 66% (33/50) in the peripheral blood, significantly higher than the rates in cases of non-clear cell type of RCC (P<0.05). Immunohistochemistry showed a significantly higher positivity rate of MN/CAIX protein in clear cell RCC tissues [97.2% (35/36)] than in non-clear cell renal neoplasm and normal renal tissues (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONMN/CAIX is specifically overexpressed in RCC, especially in clear cell RCC, suggesting its potential in the diagnosis and prognostic and therapeutic evaluation of RCC.

National Journal of Andrology 2011;17(6):542-545
OBJECTIVETo summarize the experience in the application of circumcision anastomat in the treatment of phimosis and redundant prepuce in children.
METHODSA total of 551 children with phimosis or redundant prepuce were treated by circumcision from 2008 to 2010, 342 with circumcision anastomat and the other 209 by traditional circumcision. Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.
RESULTSCompared with traditional circumcision, circumcision with the anastomat showed the advantages of less operation time (P < 0.05), fewer complications, no need for dressing, and better cosmetic appearance, but it also exhibited the disadvantages of longer healing time (P < 0.05) and more obvious postoperative pain (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONCircumcision with the anastomat and traditional circumcision for the treatment of phimosis and redundant prepuce in children each have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the former is more advantageous and more feasible clinically.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the feasibility of oral cytokine gene therapy against tumor using live attenuated Salmonella as a vector.
METHODSA live attenuated AraA- autotrophic mutant of Salmonella typhimurium (SL3261) was used as carrier for eukaryotic expression vectors EGFPN1 and pCMVmIL-12 administered orally in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. After 6 weeks, the mice were challenged with 4T1 or Lewis tumor cells, respectively, and flow cytometry and confocal microscopy were used to detect the expression of green fluorescence protein (GFP) in the tissues. PCR and ELISA were performed to detect the integration and expression of mIL-12 gene, and the survival time of the mice was also recorded.
RESULTSGFP expression and mIL-12 gene integration could be detected in the liver, spleen, intestinal, kidney and tumor tissues of the mice. The serum level of mIFN-gamma, mIL-12 increased significantly in mice with oral mIL-12 administration (P<0.05), which resulted in the survival prolongation of the mice as compared with the control mice (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONOral gene therapy using live attenuated Salmonella can be potentially a simple, effective and above all, safe means for tumor treatment.

BackgroundHuman retinal gliocytes play an important role in proliferative diseases,which are the basis of in vitro studies.Researchers have cultured human retinal gliocytes in the past.In our study,we found that the cells we cultured presented a unique shape different from those by other researchers.ObjectiveThis study was to design to produce a new culture and purification method for retinal gliocyte in vitro.Methods Retinal tissue was isolated from human eyeballs and digested using the two-step digestion method (2% pancreatin and 0.133%collagenase Ⅵ) to harvest the retinal glio cytes.The cells were collected and cultured in endothelial cell-targeted nutrient culture containing 10% fetal calf serum and supplemented with β-endothelial cell growth factor (ECGF) and sodium heparin,and the culture dishes were coated with fibronectin(FN) to promote the attachment of retinal gliocyte.During the culturing process,the gliocytes were identified by the observation of morphological characteristic and regular histological examination.The identification of the cells also was performed by immunochemistry targeting glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP),Vimentin,neuron specific enolase ( NSE ),S-100,CD34,and Ⅷ factor.Results Retinal gliocytes were isolated successfully from the human retina by the two-step digestion method.Primary cultured cells attached after 72 hours and achieved confluency between day 9 and 10 that were aligned petaliform in shape.Regular histological examination after H&E staining showed blue cell nuclei and light red cytoplasm.The target cells presented with strong responses for GFAP and Vimentin and no response for NSE,S-100,CD34 and Ⅷ factor.ConclusionsLarge amount of purified human retinal gliocytes can be obtained by two-step digestion and cultured in endothelial cells-targeted culture medium supplemented with β-ECGF and sodium heparin in plates coated with FN.The cultured cells expressed markers for retinal gliocytes.However,specific features of these cells remain to be further elucidated.
