Objective To investigate the impact of transplantation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells(hAMSCs)on the histopathological change in paraquat-induced pulmonary fibrosis in rats. Methods Forty-six female SD rats were randomly divided into the sham surgery group and the hAMSCs transplant group. Pulmonary fibrosis model was induced by 2％ of paraquat intragastric administration(100 mg/kg/rat). hAMSCs were injected through caudal vein(2 × 106 cells/mL/rat). The histopathological changes were observed through microscopy after HE and the immunohistochemical staining. Results General conditions in rats received hAMSCs transplantation were better than those of the model rats. More large area and white fibrosis nidus were observed in bilateral lung of model rats,with less dispersal spot or nidus. The construction of lung tissue was disordered in the model rats. The thickness of alveolar wall was found increased. There were large area interstitial hyperplasia and a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrations. The construction of lung tissue was apparently improved. A majority of alveolar wall was monolayer cell. There were only less and small area with interstitial hyperplasia. Inflammatory cell infiltration was significantly decreased. The anti-human nucleus specific antibody positive hAMSCs were observed planted and survived in lung interstitial tissue. And few hAMSCs were observed planted in alveolar wall. Conclusion The transplanted hAMSCs can be planted and survived in lung tissue ,and may play a therapeutic role in araquat-induced pulmonary fibrosis.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between muscle fibrosis and the displacement of the hyoid bone while swallowing among patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after radiation therapy.Methods Twenty-six NPC patients with dysphagia were recruited.Shear wave elastography was performed to assess the fibrosis of the mylohyoid muscle.The horizontal and vertical displacement of the hyoid bone were measured based on the videofluoroscopic swallowing study,and the severity of dysphagia was determined using the penetration-aspiration scale (PAS).The correlation between the modulus value of the mylohyoid muscle and the horizontal and vertical displacement of the hyoid bone were analyzed,respectively.Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve were constructed to assess the diagnostic ability of modulus value for the severity of dysphagia above grade 5 of PAS.Results For patients whose PAS was higher than grade 5,the modulus value of mylohyoid muscle was negatively correlated with the displacement of hyoid bone,while such correlation was absent for patients whose PAS grading were less than or equal to 5.Sensitivity and specificity by modulus value to detect dysphagia were 80％ and 81.8％,respectively,with the best cut-off value of 14.37 kPa.Conclusion The reduction of hyoid bone displacement can be partially attributed to muscle fibrosis for post-radiation NPC patients with severe dysphagia.The modulus value measured by Shear wave elastography could be used as a supplementary way to monitor the development of dysphagia.

Objective To evaluate the swallowing function of patients with dysphagia after brainstem injury using manofluorography (MFG),analyzing the abnormal biomechanical and kinematic parameters as well as any correlation between changes in the pharynx and the upper esophageal sphincter (UES) measured manometrically and changes in the kinematics of the hyoid bone.Methods Thirteen patients with dysphagia after brainstem injury (the patient group) and 13 healthy participants (the control group) underwent manofluorography.Kinematics and biomechanical changes during swallowing were compared between the two groups and the correlations between the observations were analyzed.Results The patient group showed significantly lower maximum pressure and rate of pressure change at the base of the tongue and in the hypopharynx,as well as less hyoid anterior displacement,smaller and briefer UES opening,but significantly higher minimum pressure at UES relaxation.The duration of tongue root elevation and hypopharynx pressure was also shorter than in the control group,on average.There was a negative correlation between hyoid anterior displacement and the minimum pressure on UES relaxation in the control group,and a positive correlation between hyoid anterior displacement and the maximum pressure at the base of the tongue and in the hypopharynx in the patient group.Conclusions The concurrent use of manometry and video-fluorography for evaluating dysphagia can be an objective and effective diagnostic tool for the comprehensive evaluation of swallowing function.

The level of postvoid residual volume (PRV) in research group was significantly higher than that in control group:(83.0 ± 9.4) ml vs. (48.0 ± 8.3) ml, P<0.05. The rate of low compliance bladder and unstable bladder in research group were significantly higher than that in control group:63.3%(38/60) vs. 25.0%(15/60), 66.7%(40/60) vs. 28.3%(17/60), P<0.01. Conclusions Cerebral vascular accident can increase the bladder dysfunction of patients with BPH .

Objective To study the influence of post-void residual volume on prostate specific antigen (PSA) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods One hundred and sixty BPH patients who diagnosed by postoperative pathologic manifestations were selected.The patients were divided into 4 groups according to post-void residual volume with 40 cases each:non post-void residual volume (post-void residual volume ＜ 60 ml) group,less post-void residual volume (60 ml≤post-void residual volume ＜ 120 ml) group,middle post-void residual volume (120 ml ≤post-void residual volume ＜ 180 ml) group,mass post-void residual volume (post-void residual volume ≥180 ml) group.The serum PSA levels of 4 groups were observed.Results The PSA level in mass post-void residual volume group [(8.52 ± 6.72) iμ g/L] was significantly higher than that in non post-void residual volume group [(5.26 ± 4.16) μ g/L] and less post-void residual volume group [(5.93 ± 5.20) μ g/L],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05),there was no statistical difference between non post-void residual volume group and less post-void residual volume group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The serum PSA level in BPH patients with non post-void residual volume has no change,while the serum PSA level in BPH patients with mass post-void residual volume is significantly elevated.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of elastics drawing off balloon catheter for 24 hours on preventing bleeding after transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate (TUPKRP).Methods Seven hundred patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) underwent TUPKRP in the Eighth People's Hospital of Shanghai from Jan.2005 to Jun.2013 were randomly divided into control group (298 cases) and experiment group (402 cases).Patients in control group after transurethral resection of the bladder were given treatment as follow:the bladder was placed with F22 cavity catheter,which were fixed on the medial femoral traction;prostate wound edge was pressed for 2-3 d and saline continuous irrigated bladder for avoiding infection.Patients in experiment group were given the same treatment with control group beside prostate wound pressed for 24 h.The days (1st,3rd,5th) of bleeding after operation,cases of hematuria turn clear,cases of postoperative blood transfusion and operation bleeding were recorded.Results Cases of hematuria disappeared postoperation at 1 st,3rd,5th days after operation were 52,42,24 cases in control group and 34,22,10 cases in experiment group.The differences were significant(x2 =6.608,9.279,7.624 ;P =0.010,0.002,0.006).Cases of blood transfusion and reoperation in experiment group were 6 and 2 cases,lower than that in control group(15,9 cases ; x2 =4.955,5.264 ; P =0.026,0.022).Conclusion The method of elastics drawing off balloon catheter for 24 hours improved the effect of preventing bleeding after TUPKRP.

Objective To investigate the expression of a dismtegnn and metalloproteinase-12 (ADAM12) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in human bladder carcinoma,and to explore their correlation with different grades and stages of bladder cancer.Methods Biopsies of 12 normal bladder and 43 bladder tumors were performed.And immunohistochemistry was conducted to detect the expression of ADAM12 and PCNA in the biopsies.Results Positive expression signals of ADAM12 were detected significantly higher inthe bladder cancer biopsies than that in the normal ones (Z =4.879,P ＜ 0.05),and the expression level of ADAM-12 in lower histological grade was significantly higher than that in the moderate and higher histological grades (x2 =22.3685,P ＜ 0.01).Positive expression signals of PCNA were detected significantly higher in the bladder cancer biopsies than that in the normal ones (Z =4.879,P ＜ 0.05)).Those with lower histological grade had a higher expression level of PCNA when compared with the moderate and higher histological grades (x2 =10.665,P =0.0137).The expression of ADAM-12 was positively correlated with PCNA in bladder cancer (r =1.000,P ＜ 0.0001).Conclusion The over expression of ADAM12 and PCNA maybe play an important role in development of the bladder tumors.And ADAM12 may be a promising biomarker of bladder cancer in the clinical behavior.

Objective To observe the effects of bolus volume on pharyngeal and upper esophageal sphincter pressures and durations in healthy volunteers by using high-resolution manometry (HRM).Methods Twentyfour health subjects were recruited and asked to swallow three volumes of bolus (3 ml,5 ml and 10 ml) in the neutral head position.Pressure and duration measurements were acquired by utilizing a high-resolution solid-state manometer,with an emphasis on the hypopharynx and upper esophageal sphincter (UES).Variables including UES residual pressure,UES relaxation duration,maximum hypopharygeal pressure and hypopharyngeal pressure duration were analyzed across bolus volumes and consistencies by using three-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) to investigate influence of bolus volume.Results UES residual pressure [-1.71 mmHg(3 ml thick liquid)vs.-4.68 mmHg(10 ml thick liquid)],UES relaxation duration[590.45 ms(3 ml thick liquid) vs.702.49 ms (10 ml thick liquid)],maximum hypopharygeal pressure [169.91 mmHg (3 ml thick liquid) vs.204.42 mmHg (10 ml thick liquid)] and hypopharyngeal pressure duration(P ＜0.05) varied significantly across bolus volumes when swallowing water or thick liquid.The UES relaxation duration,UES residual pressure and maximum hypopharyngeal pressure had a direct positive relationship with bolus volume.There was significant differences with regard to UES relaxation duration [685.75 ms(3 ml paste)vs.772.27 ms (10 ml paste)] but not to UES residual pressure (P ＞ 0.05) and maximum hypopharyngeal pressure (P ＞ 0.05) across bolus volume when swallowing paste.Conclusions Difference in hypopharyngeal pressure and duration,UES residual pressure and duration were detected across varying bolus volumes.Consideration of these variables is paramount in understanding normal and pathological swallowing.
