Academic Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University 2008;20(2):138-140
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) via bronchoscope for lung diffuse lesions and peripheral pulmonary lesions. Methods: The results of TBLB were retrospectively analyzed from 256 diagnoses of unknown patients with lung diffuse lesions or peripheral lung lesions. Results: Eighty-nine final diagnosis cases via TBLB only once, the diagnostic rate of double lung diffuse lesions was the highest, [51.06%(24/ 47)], local non-nodule lesions, nodule lesions, cavity lesions were 33.33%(23/69), 29.91%(35/117), and 28.57% (4/14), respectively. Among 24 diagnostic cases of double lung diffuse lesions, there were 6 cases of pneumonia of pulmonary tuberculosis, 9 cases of lung carcinoma, 7 cases of adenocarcinoma; 6 cases of pneumonia, 2 cases of fungous infection, and 1 case of lung hemosiderosis. The diagnostic yield about 58 cases of local lesions was low, among which non-nodule lesions accounted for 33.33% and nodule lesions accounted for 29.91%. In 89 cases of peripheral lung lesions with histological diagnosis, lung carcinoma and pulmonary tuberculosis were frequent diseases, which accounted for 86.52%. Conclusion: TBLB is a reliable, safe, effective and repeatable operation method in diagnosis of lung diffuse lesions and peripheral pulmonary lesions.

Objective To clarify the possible role of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2), intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) and E-selectin in the inflammatory injury induced by cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. Methods The focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion model was induced by a suture occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery. The rats were randomly assigned to four groups: sham operated group; 4 h,22 h and 46 h reperfusion groups. The expression of ICAM-1, E-selectin and COX-2 were detected by immuno-Western blot and immunohistochemical method. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was detected by a commercial MPO kit. Results In the right cortex and striatum of the sham operated group and the 4 h, 22 h and 46 h reperfusion groups, the relative values of COX-2 were 0.7642?0.0763, 1.5382?0.1047, 1.6491?0.3265, 1.8020?0.3719 and 0.7104?0.0891, 2.2061?0.2143, 1.7897?0.3537, 1.8018?0.5703 respectively; the relative values of ICAM-1 were 0.6845?0.0531, 0.9115?0.0422, 0.9426?0.0407, 1.0756?0.0467 and 0.6583?0.0361, 0.9439?0.0746, 0.9975?0.1532, 0.8808?0.0497 respectively. Significant increase of MPO activity and expression levels of COX-2, ICAM-1 and E-selectin were shown from 4 h to 46 h in the striatum and cortex of rats following reperfusion. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the number of ICAM-1 and E-selectin positive vessels was increased in the border of ischemia. The positive cells of COX-2 were almost neurons in the cortex, but in the striatum, the cells were neurons, glias and vessel endothelium. Positive correlation between COX-2 and ICAM-1 expression in the cortex(n=6,r=0.973,P

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of survivin and CD44v6 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their correlation. Methods SP immunohistochemical technique was used to detect the expression of survivin and CD44V6 protein in 53 cases of NSCLC and 13 cases of para-eaneer nor-mal tissues. Results The positive rate of survivin and CD44v6 in NSCLC was 60. 38% and 69. 81% respec-tively,which was higher than that of normal pulmonary tissues adjacent to carcinoma(P <0. 01). The expres-sion of survivin and CD44v6 in NSCLC was related to lymph node metastasis (P < 0. 05), but not to patients' age and gender(P>0.05). The expression of survivin was related to TNM stages and cell differentiation (P <0. 05) ,but not to histology type(P >0. 05). The expression of CD44v6 in squamous carcinoma was significantly higher than that of adenocareinoma (P <0. 05),but the expression of CD44v6 was not related to TNM stages and cell differentiation (P >0. 05). There was no correlation between the expression of survivin and C1)44v6 (r = -0. 058, P >0. 05). Conclusion Survivin might be used to evaluate NSCLC development;CD44v6 might be used for the differential diagnosis of squamous carcinoma in NSCLC;both of them might be helpful to predict the metastasis of NSCLC. They might be two independent events in the process of NSCLC genesis and develop-ment.

Objective:To review the clinical efficacy of botulinum toxin type A(BTX-A)in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia (TN).Methods:The main bibliographic databases were searched from English and Chinese literatures on the topic and the refer-ences of the identified articles were also searched for additional studies.2 reviewers assessed the quality of the included studies and extracted data duplicate.Results:3 Chinese and 1 English reports with 203 participants were included.However,substantial hetero-geneity(I2 =77%)precluded meta-analysis and the results were individually described.3 trials reported that BTX-A was more effec-tive than the control and 1 showed no difference between groups.Adverse effects of BTX-A were reported in 4 reports and were mild to moderate.Conclusion:BTX-A is effective in treating TN with few adverse effects.However,the evidence is weak because of a few studies included and most of them with low methodological quality.Further studies with high quality are needed to testify the evidence.

Objective To explore the joint toxic effect of formaldehyde and benzene on testicles of the mice. Methods 78 Kunming male mice were divided into groups, in the formaldehyde treatment groups were exposed at dosage of 0.2 mg/kg,2 mg/kg,20 mg/kg, in the benzene treatment groups were exposed at dosage of 100.0 mg/kg,200.0 mg/kg,400.0 mg/kg and the in formaldehyde and benzene combined treatment groups were exposed at dosage of 0.1+50.0 mg/kg,1+100.0 mg/kg,10+200.0 mg/kg respectively. The treatments were conducted by peritoneal injection for five consecutive days,once a day,then killed on 6th day. The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD),the contents of maleic dialdehyde(MDA),the contents of copper(Cu),zinc(Zn) in testicles of the mice were determined. Results Compared with those in the negative control groups,the activity of SOD and the contents of Cu, Zn in the testicles of the mice in each treatment group significantly decreased, while the contents of MDA significantly increased (P

Background and purpose:Neuroendocrine neoplasm is one kind of infrequent neoplasms from neuroendocrine cell and peptidergic neurons. This study aimed to investigate the epidemiology and clinicopathological characteristics of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) in Dalian. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed all neuroendocrine neoplasms patients in First Afifliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from 2000 to 2013. The epidemiology characteristics, pathogenic sites and pathological types were reviewed, and the differences between gender and age were also analyzed. The statistics analysis such as independent-samples t test and one-way ANOVA and chi-square test were performed. Results:There were 279 NEN cases, including 166 male and 113 female patients (male:female=1.14:1), detection rate was 0.258%. The mean age of all cases was 59.4±17.1 (20-83), for male 58.9±19.4 (20-81) and female 61.7±15.0 (29-83). There was no statistical signiifcance of detection rate and mean age between male and female patients. Digestive system was the most common occurred site of NEN (71.68%), then was the respiratory system (20.79%). There was no statistical significance of pathogenic sites between male and female.In all case, 132 with neuroendocrine tumor (47.31%), 140 with neuroendocrine cancer (50.18%), 7 with mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (2.51%). There was no statistical signiifcance of pathological types between male and female (P>0.05).Conclusion:Recently, the detection rate of neuroendocrine neoplasms was raised in Dalian, but there was no signiifcance differences in detection rate,pathogenic sites and pathological types between male and female.
