Objective: To investigate the effects of Shen-Mai injection(SM) on perfusion and oxygenation of intestinaltract during repeffusion in shocked rabbits. Methods:Twenty-one rabbits were divided into control group (Ⅰ,n = 6), shock-repeffusion group ( Ⅱ, n = 9) and SM group ( Ⅲ, n = 6). Intestinal intramucosal pH (pHi) of the sigrnoid colon and portalvein blood gas was observed before shock, at 1 hour after shock, 1 hour and 2 hours of reperfusion. Results: pHi and portal vein pH in group Ⅱ were significantly lower than those in group Ⅰ (P < 0.01), but portal vein increased obviously during reperfusion. There was a good linear positive correlation between pHi and portal vein pH. Portal vein in group Ⅱ was greater than that in group Ⅰ and had anegative correlation with pHi. pHi and portal vein pH of group Ⅲ increased signifi- cantly compared with those of goup Ⅱ ( P < 0.05), while of group Ⅲ returned to the level of group Ⅰ . MAP and CO of group m were higher than those of group Ⅱ after 1 hour or 2 hours reperfusion (P<0.05).CO of group m remained at a high level during reperfusion. But SVR of group Ⅲ was lower than that of group Ⅱ during reperfusion. Conclusion: SM im-proves perfusion and oxygenation of intestinal tract during reperfusion.

Objective To summarize the curative effect of ERCP and EST before laparoseopic cholecystec-tomy for treatment of patients with cbolelithiasts concurrent with choledoeholithiasis. Methods A retrospec-tive analysis was carried out for 43 cases of cholelithiasis concurrent with choledocholithiasis from January 2006 to December 2008. Results The procedures were successfully accomplished in 40 patients, the suc-cess rate was 93%. The successful clearance rate of common bile duct stone was 95.2%. Complication oc-curred in 2 cases, including 1 case of papilla bleeding and 1 case of hyperamylesemia. All complications were cured with non-operating treatment. Conclusions ERCP and EST before laparoseopic cholecystectomy is the best treatment and diagnosis method in gallbladder stone with common bile dust stone. It is very impor-tant to improve the success rate of LC, decrease complication and occurrence of the open operation of com-mon bile duct stone.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of reserving gallbladder cholecystolithotomy by using laparoscopy com-bined with choledochoscopy in the treatment of gallbladder polyp and cholecystolithiasis .Methods The clinical data of 108 patients with gallbladder polyp complicating gallstone in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed .The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the operation modes .The treatment group adopted laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy ,while the control group was treated by the traditional laparotomy .The clinical effect ,operation time ,postoperative out-of-bed time ,length of postop-erative hospital stay and occurrence rate of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups .Results The aver-age operation time had no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0 .05) .The average postoperative out-of-bed time and the time of postoperative hospital stay in the treatment group were significantly shorter than that in the control group (P<0 .05) . The occurrence rate of postoperative complications in the control group was higher than that in the treatment group (P<0 .05) . Conclusion The application of laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy in reserving gallbladder choledochoscopy for treating gallbladder polyp and cholecystolithiasis has obvious effect and less complications ,and is worth being popularized in clinic .

Objective To compare the application value of three different planes obtained by automated breast volume scanner for the observation of margin characteristics of breast masses.Methods Two hundred and eight women patients with 237 masses (120 benign and 1 1 7 malignant,confirmed by pathology)were included in this study.The detection rates of mass margin characteristics in three different planes were compared.The diagnostic performance of mass margin characteristics in differentiating benign and malignant breast masses in three different planes was compared by area under the ROC curve (AUC). Results The detection rate of angular margins for malignant masses in sagittal planes(41 .9%)was higher than that in coronal planes(22.2%)and axial planes(26.5%)with statistical difference (P =0.001 ,0.013);the detection rate of spiculated margins for malignant masses in coronal planes(42.7%)was higher than that in sagittal planes (1 1 .1 %)and axial planes (1 7.1 %)with statistical difference (both P < 0.001 ).No significant difference was found between any two of the three planes in the detection rates of margin characteristics for benign masses.The AUC of angular margins in sagittal planes (0.693)was higher than that in coronal planes (0.607)and axial planes (0.624);the AUC of spiculated margins in coronal planes (0.697)was higher than that in sagittal planes (0.55 1 )and axial planes (0.573 );the AUC of indistinct margins in axial planes(0.606)was higher than that in coronal planes (0.552)and sagittal planes (0.552);the AUC of microlobulated margins in axial planes (0.825)was higher than that in coronal planes (0.778) and sagittal planes (0.81 7).Conclusions Three different planes of ABVS have their own advantages for the observation of margin characteristics of breast masses.

AIM:To study the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on the proliferation of human naso-pharyngeal carcinoma ( NPC) cells, and to explore its mechanism by targeting miR-34a.METHODS: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2Z cells were treated with various concentrations of EGCG .The ability of cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay, 5-ethynyl-2-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation assay and colony-forming assay.The cell cycle distributions were analyzed by flow cytometry .The protein levels of P53 and Notch1 were detected by Western blot .The expression of miR-34a and Notch1 mRNA was measured by real-time PCR.RESULTS:EGCG effectively inhibited the proliferation and colony formation of CNE-2Z cells in a dose-dependent manner , which was related to its induction of cell cycle arrest at G 0/G1 phase.The expression of P53 and miR-34a in CNE-2Z cells was significantly increased after treated with EGCG , while the expression of Notch1 at mRNA and protein levels was markedly suppressed .CONCLUSION:EGCG induces cell cycle arrest and suppresses cell proliferation by regulating the P 53/miR-34a/Notch1 pathway in NPC cells.

Objective To study the effects of Apelin on glucose toxicity and islet cells PDX-1 protein expression.Methods The islet β cell line NIT-1 cells were incubated in the medium containing different glucose concentrations(normal glucose concentration group 5.6 mmol/L,high glucose concentration group 16.7 mmol/L,extremely high glucose concentration group 33.3 mmol/L) and +/-Apelin-36 respectively for 3 d.Then the basic insulin secretion amount of islet cells and their secretion amount after glucose stimulation were detected.The intracellular insulin content and the PDX-1 protein and mRNA expression were detected.Results Compared with the normal glucose group,the basic insulin secretion,secretion after stimulation and intracellular insulin in the high glucose group and extremely high glucose group were significantly decreased and PDX-1 protein expression was declined(P＜ 0.05);compared with non-adding Apelin group,the basic insulin secretion,secretion after stimulation and intracellular insulin in the adding Apelin high glucose group and extremely high glucose group were significantly decreased and PDX-1 protein expression was decreased(P＜0.05);the insulin level in islet cells of 6 groups was positively correlated with PDX-1 protein expression and had no correlation with PDX-1 mRNA expression.Conclusion Apelin may participate in the glucose toxic effect by decreasing PDX-1 protein expression,causes the decrease of insulin secretion,thus plays a role in the pathogenesis of diabetes.

Objective To explore the effect of comorbidities on the surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture. Methods The Age,gender,weight,type of fracture,preoperative comorbidities and surgical outcomes of 117 patients aged 80 yr or over who undergoing hip fracture surgery in our hospital were recorded. Patients were divided into rehabilitation group and postoperative in-hospital death group ac-cording to surgical outcomes. The potential predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were identified by univariate model and were then entered into multiple Logistic regression analysis. Results Twenty three patients(19. 7%)had no comorbidity,94 patients(80. 3%)had one or more comorbidities. Ten patients(8. 5%)died in hospital after the operation. Predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were preoperative respiratory diseases and three or more comorbidities. Conclusion Surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture may be predicted by analysing preoperative comorbidities. Preoperative preparations must be sufficient in order to ensure successful operation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between refractory hypertension and renal hemodynamics in end stage renal diseases (ESRD) patients.Methods ESRD patients were classified into:patients with refractory hypertension (group A) and patients with normal blood pressure(group B).Renal hemodynamic indices were ex- amined by duplex ultrasonography.Fasting serum lipid (TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,Lp(a),ox-LDL) and serum parathyroid hormane (PTH) were determined in all patients.Results Significant differences were found in renal hemodynamic indices such as peak systolic velocity (PSV),mean flow velocity (MV),pulsatility index (PI),renal- aortic ratio (RAR) and in clinical index such as Lp(a) and ox-LDL between the two group.Refractory hyperten- sion patients had lower renal hemodynamic indices and higher Lp(a) and ox-LDL levels than in patients with con- trolled BP.Logistic regression analysis revealed that refractory hypertension was related with PSV,EDV,Pl and RAR,but not relevant with sex,age,dialysis time,hematocrit,BUN,creatinine,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C, PTH,MV and RI.Conclusion Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis and severe disorder in renal hemodynamics is likely the cause for refractory hypertention in ESRD patients.The rise of serum Lp(a) and ox-LDL might acceler- ate renal artery atherosclerosis.
