Objective To observe dynamic responsive regularity of specific IgM and IgG antibodies in SARS patients. Methods 145 specimens of plasma from 25 cases of clinically diagnosed SARS patients were examined in the study. ELISA was employed to detect IgM and IgG antibodies against SARS coronaviral antigens. Nested RT-PCR was used to qualitatively determine SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Results 49.0% (71/145) and 54.5% (79/145) of the samples were positive for IgM and IgG antibodies, respectively. Both antibodies were found to be detected in 84.0% of the patients. The antibodies were found to be detectable from the 2nd to 4th week after the onset of disease in most patients, and there was a fendeney of sising in positive rate until the 5th week after the onset. Thereafter, the detectable rate of IgM antibody began to decline, while that of IgG antibody remained to rise. Positive rate for serum SARS-CoV was 15.8% (18/114) for all samples or 40.0% (10/25) of patients. Most virus-positive samples were those which were collected within 4 weeks after disease onset. Conclusions Anti-SARS-CoV IgM/IgG antibody and detection of virus in plasma could serve as practical diagnostic indicators for SARS. In most cases, when the serum was pasitive for antibody the serum virus positive rate would soon declined. However, concomitant existence of antibody and viral sequence in plasma was observed in a few patients.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(MPCNL) for impacted upper ureteric calculi.Methods Retro-urethral catheterization was conducted in the diseased ureter under cyctoscope.After a channel from the skin surface into the middle calyx was established under the guidance of X-ray or B ultrasonography,pneumatic lithotripsy was conducted to break up stones under ureteroscopy.Results The success rate of pneumatic lithotripsy was 100%.The rate of postoperative macroscopic hematuria was 55.1%(27/49).The symptom lasted one to three days in 26 cases,and 1 case had apparent hematuria with blood clot flowing out from nephrostomy tube,which lasted 8 days.10.2%(5/49) of cases was complicated with postoperative pyrexia.The stone-free rate in one week and one month postoperatively was 93.9%(46/49) 98.0%(48/49),respectively.Follow-up observations in 49 cases for 1-12 months(mean,5 months) showed no major complications.Conclusions MPCNL for impacted upper ureteral calculi has the advantages of simple performance,less complications and satisfactory efficacy.

Objective To study the growth effect of human cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 treated by norcantharidin (NCTD) and preliminary illustrate the potential mechanism.Methods The human cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 was detected by MTT assay,flow cytometry,immunocytochemistry after the treatment of NCTD in vitro.Results NCTD displayed inhibitory effect on growth of QBC939 from different doses of 0.125,0.75,2.5,10,120 μg/ml after 48 h (P ＜0.05).It was in a dose and time dependent manner.Dose-effect curve was drawn and IC50 value was (3.66±1.14) μg/ml.The flow cytometric profiles showed that the rate of cell apoptosis enhanced following increasing the concentration of NCTD[(8.6±0.4) ％,(17.6±0.3) ％,(22.9±0.4) ％,(25.5±0.9) ％ and (31.1±1.5) ％,respectively]and cells blocked in the G2/M phase after treatment with 2.5 μg/ml NCTD[(14.1±1.0) ％ and (5.7±0.3) ％].The expression of the protein caspase-3 elevated after different concentrations of NCTD co-cultured with QBC939 compare with contrast group.Conclusion NCTD has an inhibitory effect on proliferation of QBC939 cell line,and the mechanism might be related to the induction of cell apoptosis and blockade of cell cycle.

Objective: To explore the feasibility and safety of comprehensive staging surgery via laparoscopic operation and its clinical significance. Methods: A retrospective analysis of medical records was conducted in 35 inpatients diagnosed of ovarian cancer (stage I, n = 29; stage II, n = 4; stage III, n = 2) in Department of Gynecology of Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 2010 and January 2013. Of the 35 patients, 15 underwent comprehensive staging operation via laparoscopic operation and 20 via open operation. The general conditions during and after operation and the postoperative survival were observed and compared between the two groups. Results: All operations completed successfully in 15 patients in the laparoscopic operation group, and no perioperative complications were observed. The intraoperative blood loss and the rate of postoperative analgesia in the laparoscopic operation group were both less than those in the open operation group (P < 0.05), but the differences in duration of operation, number of abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes resected, recovery time of gastrointestinal function, rate of postoperative complications, rate of postoperative recurrence, rate of increase in pathological stage, hospitalization expenses, duration of hospital stay after operation and the rate of chemotherapy after operation were not statistically significant between the two groups (P > 0.05). There was also no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Comprehensive staging operation for ovarian cancer especially for early-stage cancer is feasible and safe. It has the merits of smaller wound, less blood loss during the operation and more rapid recovery. Copyright© 2014 by TUMOR.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of adult abdominal migraine (AM), and improve the understanding and the accuracy of diagnosis of this disease.Methods:A case of adult AM diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in October 2019 was reported, and patients diagnosed with AM in the medical literature from January 2004 to May 2020 were searched and summarized.Results:A total of 634 articles were retrieved, among which 14 articles reported 17 adult AM patients,totally 18 adult AM patients (11 females),including the case diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Only two cases were diagnosed within one year after the onset, and the other cases were diagnosed several years later, of which the longest diagnostic delay was 37 years. The location and nature of abdominal pain were diverse. The median frequency of episodes was 2.5 times per month. Sixteen patients had a duration of 2-72 hours per attack, and the longest one lasted for four days. Fourteen patients had nausea, 13 had vomiting, and seven had headache. Fifteen patients had a personal or family history of migraine. Sixteen patients′ episodes were separated by weeks to months. Because nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were not beneficial to adults with AM, abortive triptan therapy was recommended and anesthetics were considered when necessary. All patients responded to prophylactic migraine therapies.Conclusions:Adult AM is a rare disease. Patients with unexplained, recurrent and moderate to severe abdominal pain, combined with headache, a personal or family history of migraine, are highly suspected of having AM. Early diagnosis and prophylactic migraine therapies could contribute to good prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the charateristics of biliary stricture after orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) by ultrasound. Methods Diametes,thickness,characteristic echo of bile were observed by ultrasound in 41 patients with biliary stricture after OLT,and the results were compared with those of 46 patients without biliary complication after OLT.Results The diameter of intrahepatic bile,thickness of bile,incidence of intrahepatic bile dilation or hyperechogenicity in biliary stricture patiens were higher than those in patients without biliary complication,there were significant differences between two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusions The series of ultrasonographic character such as bile dilation,thickeness or hyperechogenicity of biliary wall,thin of bile duct are available to diagnose biliary stricture.
