ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between the prevalence of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) and metabolic syndrome (MS)in the army elderly.Methods Totally 1 230 veterans (aged 70 years and over) from 26 military sanatorium in Shijiazhuang city were studied.The prevalence of BPH and MS was calculated.ResultsThe prevalence of BPH among the elderly was 77.0%.There was a trend of increase in the prevalence of BPH with increasing age (x2 = 50.4,P<0.01).The prevalence of MS among the male elderly was 19.6%.MS was a risk factor for BPH(x2 =24.2,P<0.0001).ConclusionsMS may be one of risk factors for the prevalence of BPH.

Objective To evaluate the image quality of dynamic three-dimensional contrast enhanced ultrasonography(3D-CEUS) in liver tumors.Methods Twenty-five patients were examed with 2D-CEUS and dynamic 3D-CEUS.Contrast-enhanced computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging(CECT/MRI) were performed early or late.Two readers reviewed the images of both modalities and graded the images according to diagnostic criteria as follows:tumor blood fusion in arterial phase(unclear-score 0,moderate-score 1,clear-score 2),tumor boundry and relationship with periphery tissues (unclear score 0,moderate-score 1,clear-score 2).The concordance between the two modalities for showing liver tumors was evaluated by Kappa test.Results Twenty-three of 25 danymic 3D-CEUS were displayed successfully versus total objects in CECT/ MRI.Among them,for showing blood fusion,16 lesions scored 2,7 lesions scored 1,2 lesions scored 0 in danymic 3D-CEUS,meanwhile 18 lesions scored 2,7 lesions scored 1,0 lesion scored 0 in CECT/MRI,the Kappa value was 0.65.For showing tumor boundry and relationship with peripherytissues,16 lesions scored 2,7 lesions scored 1,2 lesions scored 0 in danymic 3D-CEUS,meanwhile 21 lesions scored 2,4 lesions scored 1,0 lesion scored 0 in CECT/MRI,the Kappa value was 0.52.Conclusions Danymic 3D-CEUS was shown to be useful for displaying tumor blood fusion,boundry and relationship with periphery tissues in single liver tuomor,the concordance between dynamic CEUS and CECT/MRI for single liver tuomor was fair.For huge liver tumor and multi-tumors,3D-CEUS can not give overall information.

Objective To compare the application of Goldman , CARPREG and ZAHARA in predicting cardiac outcomes in pregnant women with congenital heart disease. Methods A retrospective analysis of 144 pregnant women with CHD , enrolled in The Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between Jan 1992 and June 2015 was conducted. The mortality and the incidence of cardiac events were counted by three risk estimation methods. The sensitivity and calibration of three systems were compared by using Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of-fit analysis and Aera Under Curve (AUC). Results In terms of mortality rates, the sensitivity of CARPREG was higher than that of Goldman (AUC:0.874 and 0.889 respectively;P = 0.568 >0.05);. In terms of the incidence of cardiac events, the sensitivity of ZAHARA was higher than that of Goldman (AUC:0.912 and 0.773 respectively;P = 0.063 > 0.05); Conclusions All 3 risk estimation methods have good performance in sensitivity of predicting the incidence of cardiac events and mortality in pregnant women with CHD. The ZAHARA has a better calibration in predicting the incidence of cardiac events , and we recommend ZAHARA as the first choice of evaluation system for this kind of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of Kienbock's disease in patients older than 60 years of age.MethodsGender, age at onset, affected side, dominant hand, occupation, and clinical results in 7 wrist of 7 elderly patients with Kienbock's disease were investigated.ResultsKienbock's disease in elderly patients commonly was observed in the dominant hand of manual works and was found more often in women than in men. The age at onset was from 60 to 70. Although radiographic examination revealed development of carpal collapse in all patients.ConclusionThe etiologic factors different from conventional ones might have played a role in aged patients with Kienbock's disease, surgical and rehabilitation treatments are good or excellent.

The method of multiplex PCR was set up to identify two or three transgenes in one reaction such as uidA and bar; uidA and IDx5 or uidA, bar and 1Dx5 genes. Three sets of primer pairs which was specific to each of these three genes respectively were designed and synthesized. Recombinant plasmids pAHC25 and p1Dx5 harboring uidA + bar and 1Dx5 gene separately were used as template DNA in the process of optimizing an multiplex PCR reaction. The optimal annealing temperature for uidA and bar MPCR is range from 57. 1℃-62. 3℃ , for uidA and 1Dx5 is range from 60℃ to 60. 6℃ , and for uidA、bar and 1Dx5 range from 57. 0℃-58. 4℃. The amount of template for MPCR is twice as much as that for simplex PCR, while the concentration of primers is the same with simplex one. Less than 50bp MPCR products can be separated clearly by 10% non-denaturalized polyacrylamid gel electrophoresis. Fourteen transgenic wheat lines were tested by multiplex and simplex PCR respectively, which shows the same results and hence presents that MPCR is the reliable, rapid and high-effective approach to detect foreign genes from transgenic plant.

Objective To investigate the role of Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway in the endotoxin induced acute lung injury (ALI) during the treatment by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).Methods Six SPF male SD rats were isolated and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured.A total of 72 SPF male SD rats with 6-week-old were randomly (random number) divided into 4 groups:control group (n =18) in which phosphate buffered solution (PBS) used instead of lipopolysaccharide (LPS);LPS group (n =18) in which LPS used to induce acute lung injury;LPS + MSCs group (n =18) in which MSCs directly transplanted after injection of LPS;Control + MSCs group (n =18) in which MSCs transplanted after injection of PBS.And then 6 rats of each group were sacrificed at 6 h,24 h,and 48 h separately after injection of LPS.At 24 h after the modeling,lung tissue was taken and the levels of Wrnt signaling pathway components were detected by using immunohistochemistry and Western blot.In addition,quantitative realtime PCR was used to detect the expression of Wnt signaling pathway target genes.Results Compare with the PBS control group,significant decrease in lung dry-to-wet ratio and increase in arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) were found in MSCS transplantation groups.According the immunohistological results,Wnt 5a was significantly increased in the LPS-induced ALI rats and decreased after MSCs transplantation.Moreover,decrease in levels of GSK-3β phosphorylation and β-catenin was found in the lung tissue after MSCs transplantation.In addition,the expressions of Wnt signaling target genes Vegf,Axin2 and Klf4 were decreased significantly after MSCs transplantation.Conclusions In the setting of ALI,the therapeutic effect of MSCs was exerted by decreasing the expressions of Wnt 5a,GSK-3β phosphorylation,β-catenin,and Wnt signaling target genes Vegf,Axin2 and Klf4.Wnt signaling implicated in the therapeutic effect of MSC in the setting of ALI.

Objective To investigate the causes of and prophylactic measure for complications of minilaparotomy cholecystectomy (MC).Methods The clinical data of 10 200 patients receiving MC from Apri1 1991 to March 2006 were analyzed.Results MC was successful in 9 835 cases(96.4%), and in 365 cases(3.6%) the incision was lengthened. Serious complications were 12 cases(0.12%)of bi1e duct injury, 4 cases(0.04%)of colon injury, 8 cases(0.08%)of massive haemorrhage, and 25 cases (0.25%)of bile leakage. Four 4 cases(0.04%) died. Conclusions The key to prevention of complications is a strict selection of MC indications,careful identification of the anatomical structures of Calot's triangle,use of suture ligation of the mesentery of gallbladder triangle and the technique of deep knot-tying and the timely use of extension of the incision.
