Objective To evaluate the the safety and efficiency of precise liver resection for patients with primary liver cancer. Methods 86 patients with primary liver cancer were randomized to receive conventional routine hepatectomy (n=44) or the precise liver resection (n=42). Outcomes were compared between the precise hepatectomy group and the routine group, including, the blood loss, operation time, morbidity and mortality. Results There were significant differences in morbidity rates (7.1% vs. 20.5%; P<0.001), the blood loss [(320±315) ml vs. (613±526) ml;P<0.001) , postoperative alanine aminotransferase (ALT) value (in postoperation 7 d, 82.7 U/L vs.321.7 U/L; P<0.001) and length of hospital stay (12.3 d vs. 18.6 d; P<0.001) between precise hepatectomy and routine groups. The 1 year tumor recurrence rate and 1 year survival rate were 26.2%(11/42) and 78.6% (33/42) in precise liver resection group, 38.6% (17/44) and 65.9%(29/44) in routine liver resection group,with significant difference (P=0.010;P=0.018). Conclusion Precise liver resection is safe and effective in the treatment of liver tumor without much injury to patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of MK-801 on levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID)in Parkinson' s disease (PD). MethodsRat models ( n = 25) of Parkinsonism related motor complications were established and were randomly divided into levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) group (n = 10), MK801 treatment group (n = 10) and PD group (n =5). Another 5 rats were served as control group. The behaviors of LID rats treated with MK-801 were observed. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis were used to determine the expression of β-arrestin1 in the striate of rats.Results After MK-801 treatment, abnormalinvoluntarymovementscores and peakturning weredecreasedin LIDrats.Immunohistochemistry showed that β-arrestin1-positive cells of the lesioned side ((2. 95 ± 0. 44) × 104) in LID rats were decreased compared to the contralateral side ( ( 3.78 ± 0. 37 ) × 104, t = 5. 415, P < 0. 05 ).Western blot showed that the levels of β-arrestinl in PD group ( presented as lesioned side/contralateral side) were ( 81.02% ± 2. 23% ). The levels of β-arrestin1 (64. 88% ± 3. 10% ) were deceased in LID rats compared to PD rats ( t = 9.47, P < 0. 01 ). However, the levels of β-arrestin1 ( 89. 26% ± 1.90% )were increased in MK-801-treated rats (t = 14. 82, P <0. 01). ConclusionsMK-801 reduces LID in PD rats. The beneficial effect of MK-801 may be mediated through the increased expression of β-arrestinl which in turninhibits the overactivation of glutamate receptors.

Objective To investigate cellular and behavioral effects of adenosine A2A receptor antagonist in a rat model of levodopa-induced motor complications.Methods The hemi-parkinsonian rat model was produced by stereotaxically injecting 6-OHDA to right medial forebmin bundle(MFB).Animals were intraperitoneally treated with levodopa 50 mg/kg plus benserazide 12.5 mg/kg twice a day for 22 days levodopa + vehicle.Rotational duration was estimated.After they were sacrificed,the expression of adenosine A2A receptor was observed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.Results CSC,reversing the shortened rotational duration induced by levodopa,prolonged the rotational duration.This effect was maintained fil the end of the treatment.The chronic levedopa treatment induced an upregulation of adenosine A2A receptor expression in the lesioned striatum (IOD,(11.55±2.75)×104).The subsequent CSC treatment decreased the adenosine A2A receptor expression to the level of control (IOD,(6.02±1.29)× 104) and PD group (IOD,(5.60±1.83)×104>,F=33.31,P<0.05).Conclusion These results suggest that adenosine A2A receptor is probably involved in the development of levodopa induced motor complications and adenosine A2A receptor antagonist could be useful in the treatment of motor comphcations in parkinsonian patients.

Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of barbed absorbable suture line in retroperitoneoscopic partial nephrectomy. Methods 45 patients who were suitable for retroperitoneoscopic partial nephrectomy from February 2013 to February 2014 were collected and randomly divided into V-Loc group and the control group. 23 cases of V-Loc barbed absorbable suture line were chosen by suture kidney in V-Loc group.There were 22 cases of coated vicryl plus antibacterial suture and Hem-o-lok clip in the control group. The differences of operative time, blood loss, warm ischemia time, suture time, hospital stay and suture material costs were compared respectively between the two groups. Results All 45 cases of retroperitoneoscopic partial nephrectomy were successfully performed, without conversion to open surgery and important intraoperative complications. Postoperative pathology report showed that there were 37 cases with renal clear cell carcinoma, 3 cases with papillary renal cell carcinoma, 2 cases with chromophobe renal cell carcinoma with negative surgical margin, 3 cases with renal angiomyolipomas. In the V-Loc group and the control group, the average operative time were (90.8±9.6) and (96.9±9.1) min (P>0.05), the mean blood loss were (80.4±24.2) and (99.5±24.8) ml (P>0.05), the mean warm ischemia time were (21.5±3.4) and (25.3±1.9) min (P<0.05), suture time were (10.8±1.7) and (16.8±3.1) min (P<0.05), respectively, postoperative hospital stay were (5.7±1.7) and (7.1±1.9) d (P>0.05), the average cost of renal parenchymal suture material were (1 215.5±101.4) and (2 073.5±301.8) yuan (P<0.05). The warm ischemia time,suture time and suture material costs in the V-Loc group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion The application of barbed absorbable suture line in retroperitoneoscopic partial nephrectomy can shorten warm ischemia time and suture time, and save hospitalization costs, with favorable safety and feasibility.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of preoperative and postoperative intravesical instillation of pirarubicin for the prevention of postoperative recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods From September 2012 to March 2014, 120 patients who were diagnosed as NMIBC and accepted trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt) were collected and randomly divided into two groups, including treatment group (60 cases) and control group (60 cases). 30 minutes before the operation, instillation of pirarubicin (40 mg) was performed in the treatment group, then pirarubicin perfusion was given within 24 h after operation, once a week for 8 weeks, and once a month for 10 months after operation. In control group, instillation of pirarubicin (40 mg) was given within 24 h after operation, and other treatments were the same as the treatment group. The differences of lesion detection probability, the 2-year recurrent rate and the adverse reaction rate were compared between the two groups. Results The lesion detection rates were 42.70 % (38/89) and 1.85 % (2/108) in the treatment group and control group, respectively (χ2=50.303, P<0.05). 119 patients were follow-up for 24 months. The 2-year recurrence rates were 8.47%(5/59), 21.67% (13/60) in treatment group and control group respectively (χ2= 4.033, P< 0.05). The adverse reactions mainly included hematuria (3 cases in treatment group, 3 cases in control group), urinary tract irritation (3 cases in treatment group, 2 cases in control group) and urethral stricture (1 case in treatment group, 1 case in control group). The difference of the adverse reaction incidence between the two groups was not significant statistically [11.86 % (7/59) vs. 10.00 (6/60), χ 2 = 0.106, P > 0.05]. Conclusions The preoperational intravesical instillation of pirarubicin can fix and diagnose malignant lesions in the bladder without adverse reactions, which will improve the rate of tumor resection and prevent postoperative recurrence of tumors.
