ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the application value and treatment opportunity of single balloon enteroscopy in children with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome(PJS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 33 children diagnosed with PJS in Hunan Children′s Hospital from January 2011 to September 2021.The patient′s age, gender, family history, clinical symptoms, enteroscopy examination and treatment, number of polyps, intraoperative and pos-toperative complications, surgical treatment, recurrence of surgery, and follow-up data were analyzed, and the chi- square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 33 PJS children aged (9.00±3.13) years, including 21 males and 12 females, were included.All of them received at least once single balloon enteroscopy test.The main manifestations of the children were black spots (33 cases) and multiple polyps in the digestive tract (31 cases). In all the 33 cases, black spots were distributed on lips.Some black spots were also found at the end of fingers (3 cases), at the end of foot toes(2 cases), and at the end of finger toes (6 cases). During the operation, 391 polyps were removed, most of which were jejunum polyps (37.08%, 145/391 polyps). Eleven children with PJS has intussusception, of which intestinal intussusception accounted for 90.91% (10/11 cases). Ten cases (30.30%, 10/33 cases) received surgical treatment, and 72.73% (8/11 cases) underwent surgery for acute refractory intussusception.One case had intestinal perforation and 2 cases were bleeding during the operation, and the 3 cases recovered completely after hemostatic clip sealing and surgical treatment.The incidence of hollow ileum polyps and giant polyps in children aged >8 years was higher than that in children aged ≤8 years[92.55% (149/161 polyps) vs.7.45%(12/161 polyps), 96.20%(76/79 polyps) vs.3.80% (3/79 polyps)]. The differences were statistically significant ( χ2=9.854, 8.711, all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of intussusception among different age groups ( P>0.05). Among the 33 children with PJS, 57.58% (19/33 cases) had recurrence 1-3 years after operation, and no cases of cancer have been followed up so far. Conclusions:Intestinal polyps are common in children with PJS, and the application of single-balloon enteroscopy in children with PJS is reliable and safe.Children over 8 years old are more vulnerable to empty ileum polyps and giant polyps.Therefore, it is advised that children aged above 8 years with PJS should undergo at least once enteroscopy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical feasibility and effectiveness of novel preoperative evaluating tool to achieve accurate and quantitative evaluation of renal vascular anatomy for retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy (RLRN).Methods Two-hundred and fifty one consecutive patients who underwent RLRN for renal tumours from September 2016 to March 2018 were enrolled prospectively,including 154 males (61.4%) and 97 females (38.6%),aged 26 to 84 years with the mean age of 58.7 and mean BMI of 25.8 kg/m2.The tumors were all isolated with the mean size of 5.4 cm.According to presence or absence of vascular correlation events (VCE) and nephrectomy times under endoscope (NTE),all the cases were divided into two groups:the common group (VCE,NTE < 60 min)and the difficult group (no VCE,NTE ≥ 60 min).With the help of preoperative three-dimensional reconstruction,the specific and crucial arteriovenous anatomical features were recorded,which consist of side,count,spatial configuration and density of the vessel to be processed.After univariable analysis,muhivariable analysis with logistic regression was performed for the selected risk factors.Individualized renovasculature evaluation for nephrectomy were established,when the value of risk factors were assigned separately according to its correlation and clinical practice.Results There was no statistical significance between common group and difficult group in the aspects of gender,age,BMI,maximum diameter of the tumor,R.E.N.A.L.score and PADUA score.There were statistical significance between common group and difficult group in the aspects of N (number of total vessels),D (vascular anomalies density),C (3Dconformation),S (sides) of pending renal vessels (x2 =125.700,102.014,97.090,12.603,P <0.05).The correlation of N,D,C were closely related (standardized regression coefficient were 0.742,0.664,0.324,P < 0.05),but S was not significant (P > 0.05).SIREN was preliminarily established as a preoperative evaluating tool to achieve accurate and quantitative evaluation of renal vascular anatomy.Of the 5 components of SIREN,N,D were scored on 1 to 3 points,C was scored on 0 to 3 points,E was scored on 0 to 1 point,and S was not scored but showed in terms of L or R.All of these constitute the assessment content with a full score of 10 points except S suffixed by L or R instead of scores.There was a statistically significant difference during low (2-3 points),middle (4-6 points),and high (7-10 points) groups (x2 =126.927,P < 0.05) according to the comparisons between low and middle,low and high,as well as middle and high (x2 =90.997,7.195,91.679,P < 0.05).Conclusions In virtue of the renal vascular scoring system named after SIREN by 3d reconstructing,the spatial structure information of the renal vascular system can be obtained accurately and expressed directly before operation,the difficulty of vascular treatment can be predicted,the preoperative planning can be optimized,and the accurate quantitative evaluation of renal vascular anatomical structure can be achieved to further improve the surgical safety and efficiency.

Objective@#To explore the clinical feasibility and effectiveness of novel preoperative evaluating tool to achieve accurate and quantitative evaluation of renal vascular anatomy for retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy (RLRN).@*Methods@#Two-hundred and fifty one consecutive patients who underwent RLRN for renal tumours from September 2016 to March 2018 were enrolled prospectively, including 154 males (61.4%) and 97 females (38.6%), aged 26 to 84 years with the mean age of 58.7 and mean BMI of 25.8 kg/m2. The tumors were all isolated with the mean size of 5.4 cm. According to presence or absence of vascular correlation events (VCE) and nephrectomy times under endoscope (NTE), all the cases were divided into two groups: the common group (VCE, NTE <60 min) and the difficult group (no VCE, NTE ≥60 min). With the help of preoperative three-dimensional reconstruction, the specific and crucial arteriovenous anatomical features were recorded, which consist of side, count, spatial configuration and density of the vessel to be processed. After univariable analysis, multivariable analysis with logistic regression was performed for the selected risk factors. Individualized reno-vasculature evaluation for nephrectomy were established, when the value of risk factors were assigned separately according to its correlation and clinical practice.@*Results@#There was no statistical significance between common group and difficult group in the aspects of gender, age, BMI, maximum diameter of the tumor, R. E.N.A.L. score and PADUA score. There were statistical significance between common group and difficult group in the aspects of N (number of total vessels), D (vascular anomalies density), C (3D conformation), S (sides) of pending renal vessels (χ2=125.700, 102.014, 97.090, 12.603, P<0.05). The correlation of N, D, C were closely related (standardized regression coefficient were 0.742, 0.664, 0.324, P<0.05), but S was not significant (P>0.05). SIREN was preliminarily established as a preoperative evaluating tool to achieve accurate and quantitative evaluation of renal vascular anatomy.

ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the factors influencing the mobilization and collection of autologous peripheral blood stem cells.@*Methods@#The clinical data of 62 patients who received autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell mobilization in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from April 2012 to March 2017 were collected. The effects of age, gender, disease type, chemotherapy cycle, disease status, different schemes and the number of CD34+ cells in peripheral blood of patients 1 d before collection on the number of CD34+ cells and the success rate of CD34+ cells collection were analyzed. Measurement data were compared by one-way ANOVA and t test; count data were compared by χ 2 test; multivariate analysis was performed by multiple linear regression analysis.@*Results@#There were statistically significant differences in the number of CD34+ cells between patients with chemotherapy >6 cycles and ≤6 cycles [(2.6±1.3)×106/kg vs. (5.8±2.2)×106/kg; t = 5.221, P < 0.01], and the difference in the success rate of CD34+ cell collection between the two groups was statistically significant [68.8% (11/16) vs. 97.8% (45/46); χ2 = 8.396, P = 0.004]. The difference in the CD34+ cells yield was not statistical significance between male and female patients [(5.4±2.2)×106/kg vs. (4.5±2.8)×106/kg; t = 1.302, P = 0.198)], but the collection success rate in males was higher than that in females [97.6% (40/41) vs. 76.2% (16/21)], and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 = 5.017, P = 0.025). The success rate of CD34+ cell collection in patients with ≥10/μl CD34+ cell in the peripheral blood was significantly higher than that in patients with < 10/μl CD34+ cells 1 d before the collection[97.9% (47/48) vs. 64.3% (9/14)], and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 = 10.668, P = 0.001). The differences in CD34+ cells yield and collection success rate between patients with different age, disease type, disease status and mobilization regimen were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05). Multi-factor analysis showed that > 6 cycles chemotherapy before mobilization was the adverse factor affecting stem cell collection (b = -3.435, P < 0.01).@*Conclusions@#The effective mobilization and collection of autologous peripheral blood stem cells are related to the number of chemotherapy cycles before mobilization. The stem cell mobilization and collection should be conducted as soon as possible when the chemotherapy is ≤ 6 cycles and the patient reaches partial remission or above. In addition, peripheral blood CD34+ cell count should be monitored during mobilization. When the peripheral blood CD34+ cell count is > 10/μl, the collection could be started on the next day to obtain a better collection effect, so as to improve the success rate of collection.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of resveratrol on miRNA-106b in Alzheimer′s disease ( AD ) animal model.Methods Fifty Kunming male mice were divided into five groups by completely randomized block sampling.The five groups included three dosage resveratrol groups , an AD model group and a control group.The AD models were established in one month prior to treatments. Subsequently, from the 31st day various doses of resveratrol were provided intragastricly for 60 days.Then the memory function was observed by the step-down test.Meanwhile, the varying expressions of APP , P62, ApoA1, miRNA-106b, ABCA1 were tested in each group to determine whether there is the binding site for miRNA-106b in APP 3′UTR sequence.Results Compared with the control group by step-down test, the memory function of the AD model group mice decreased in different degree , which in the drug treatment group was higher than that in the model group (P<0.05).Compared with the AD group, the expression of APP (1.131 ±0.035) in the drug treatment group was higher than that in the model group (0.652 ± 0.026), while the P62 (0.412 ±0.022) and ApoA1 (0.534 ±0.032) were lower than the model group ( all P<0.05 ).High and medium dose groups of resveratrol treatment reduced varying degrees of APP (0.733 ±0.018,0.929 ±0.019,F=177.733) levels, and increased P62(0.954 ±0.035,0.633 ±0.015, F=434.5 ) and ApoA1 ( 1.042 ±0.051, 0.824 ±0.034, F=286.582 ) levels ( all P<0.05 ).The expression of miRNA-106b (0.464 ±0.313) and ABCA1(0.293 ±0.042) in the model group was lower than that in the control group (miRNA-106b 1.064 ±0.032, F=238.159; ABCA1 0.781 ±0.027,F=341.61;both P<0.05).The miRNA-106b (0.843 ±0.034, 0.601 ±0.012) and ABCA1 (0.882 ± 0.025, 0.624 ±0.036) levels in the high, medium dose resveratrol treatment groups increased to different extent ( both P<0.05 ).After the drug treatment , luciferase reporter vector experiments showed that the APP 3′UTR sequence contains the binding site of miRNA-106b.Conclusions APP is one of the target genes of miRNA-106b.Resveratrol is capable of improving AD by enhancing the expression of miRNA-106b and down-regulating the target genes including APP , P62 and ApoA1.This provides a new theoretical basis for the clinical treatment of AD.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>The three-dimensional (3D) structure of left atrial appendage (LAA) in atrial fibrillation patients were reconstructed by Mimics 3D imaging system, aiming at guiding for selection of both the size and location of the closure devices and making preliminary risk assessment of LAA closure with Watchman system.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Inclusion criteria were: ten voluntary patients with both atrial fibrillation and indication for LAA closure aging from 40 to 85 years old with contraindication for oral anticoagulants or unwillingness to take long-term oral anticoagulation therapy from May to December 2014. 3D reconstruction of LAA was preoperatively made by Mimics 3D imaging system. With the Mimics 3D reconstruction model and the results of both transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and LAA radiography, the size and location for the closure device were chosen. The devices were planted at the ostium of the LAA.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Ten atrial fibrillation patients were enrolled (average age: (66.3±11.9) years old) and all successfully implanted with the Watchman LAA closure devices. Nine of them were with non-valvular atrial fibrillation with average CHADS2-VAS score (3.2±1.7) and HAS-BLED score (2.7±1.6). The rest one was a valvular atrial fibrillation patient with the history of the percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) without surgical indications of mitral valve replacement (MVR).

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the herbal effects on hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang by method for calming the liver and suppressing Yang and investigate its effects on the lymphocyte protein expression. This approach may lay a foundation for the further investigation of the curative mechanisms of calming the liver and suppressing Yang treatment.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>A total of 48 hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. The treatment group was treated by method for calming the liver and suppressing Yang in accordance with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and the control group with thiamazole tablets for three periods of treatment The therapeutic effects, the score of TCM symptom, electrocardiogram (P wave), thyroid hormones and ultrasound were observed in both groups before and after the treatment. The side effects in the treatment course were observed in both groups. The level of differential protein expression was analyzed by two-dimensional electrphoresis and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionizaton time-of-flight mass spectrometry.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The treatment group has the effect on stepping down the heart rate, cutting down the P wave amplitude changes, regulating the level of thyroid hormones and decreasing the volume of thyromegaly. There are not statistically significant between the treatment group and control group. However, the treatment group has obviously better effect on regulating TCM symptom and decreasing the side reaction than the control group (P<0.05). There are not statistically significant on the total effective between the treatment group and control group. The average spots in lymphocyte for normal people, before and after treating hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang were (429 +/- 31), (452 +/- 28) and (437 +/- 36) spots respectively. Eight down-regulated protein expressions and 11 up-regulated protein expressions were obtained in the hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang and normal people. Five strengthened expressions of protein were also obtained in 8 down-regulated expressions of protein and 8 lower expressions of protein in 11 up-regulated expressions of protein before and after treating the migraine patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang. Ten of the total 8 differential protein spots were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. The functions of these proteins were involved in metabolism associated, transportation, antioxidation, sigal transduction and immume associated protein, etc. according to information provided by NCBI and MSDB database.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>In this study, the TCM complex prescription with herbs for calming the liver and suppressing Yang can regulate the thyroid hormones, improves TCM symptoms, and decrease the adverse reaction. It can possibly regulate lymphocyte protein expression.</p>

Methods Clinical date of 30 systemic ALCL patients from Department Hemotology of Shanxi Cancer Hospital from December 1998 to September 2009 were reviewed. Results The median age of the 30 patients was 36 years old. The male/female ratio was 1.5:1.18 (60.0 %) 18/30 of the patients had B symptoms, 22 (73.3 %) had Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, and 18 (60.0 %) had extranodal disease at diagnosis. 14 (46.7 %) had elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level. The positive rate of ALK was 18 (60.0 %). Compared with ALK negative patients, ALK-positive patients were younger (u = 3.92, P=0.001).ALK expression and LDH level were important prognostic factors by Long-rank test. Conclusion S-ALCL usually occur in younger patients, with good response to chemotherapy and good prognosis. ALK negative and elevated LDH level are correlated to unfavorable prognosis. Combination chemotherapy is the major choice to these patients. High-dose chemotherapy maybe benefit to the patients who have adverse prognostic factors.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the therapeutic effect of calming the liver and restraining the Yang formula in treating patients with mild or moderate degree of essential hypertension (syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang), and to explore its mechanism in lowering blood pressure.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The 348 patients with EH of stage I , II were randomly divided into two groups, the 174 patients in the treated group were treated with the calming the liver and restraining the Yang formula, and the 174 patients in the control group were treated with amlodipine. The treatment course for them all was 12 weeks. The related clincial symptoms score and quality of life score estimated before and after treatment at 4th week, 8th week and 12th week were observed. Before and after treatment, the ambulatory blood pressure (AMBP), heart rate, blood lipid, serum livels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP), Angiotensin-II (Ang II) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) were measured respectively in 40 patients of the treared group and 40 patients of the control group.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>After treatment, the treatment in the treated group showed an effect better than that in the control group in terms of nigh-time blood pressure reducing rate (P < 0.05). The reducing blood pressure variability and total effective rate in the treated group were no significant than that in the control group. In respect of reducing symptomatic scores on dizzy, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, disturbed and dry and bitter of mouth, ameliorating quality of life score, decreasing the levels of heart rate, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) in the treated group were showing marked improvement as compared with that in the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.1). The improvement in the level of Ang II , Hs-CRP and CGRP before treatment in two groups were more significant than that after treatment (P < 0.05). However There were no difference in after treatment between the treated group and the control group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The calming the liver and restraining the Yang formula shows favorable efficacy in lowering blood pressure on the patients with mild or moderate degree of essential hypertension. It can reduce the clincial symptoms, improve the quality of life, regulate blood lipid metabolism. Its mechanism may be related to the functional relieving inflammatory reaction and inhibition the activity of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS).</p>

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of the formulae for calming the liver and suppressing YANG in migraine rat model with syndrome of hyperactivity of the liver-YANG.Methods A rat model of migraine with hyperactivity of liver-YANG was established through electrical trigeminal ganglion stimulation and syndrome of oral administration of Fuzi decoction. The total proteins of the lymphocyte in the rats were separated by immobilized pH gradient-based 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE), and the 2-DE image was analyzed by PDQuest 7.0 software. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionzation-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and the SWISS-PORT and MSDB database were used to identify differential proteins.Results The formulae for calming the liver and suppressing YANG could also improve headache. Well-resolution and reproducible 2-DE patterns of rat lymphocyte from normal, model, and therapy tissues were obtained. Eleven of the total 13 differential protein spots were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. These proteins were alcohol dehydrogenase 3(ADH3), glycogen phosphorylase, ATP synthase D chain, annexin-3, ubiquitin, neutrophil defensin 4 precursor, melanoma-associated antigen E2, heat shock protein-27, annexin-A1, peroxirdoxin-Ⅱ, MU class glutathione S-transferase (Fragment)(GSH). Conclusion Differences occur in the expression of lymphocyte proteins in migraine rats with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-YANG after treatment with the formulae for calming the liver and suppressing YANG, and the 11 identified protein spots may be associated with its mechanism.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of transthoracic echocardiography(TTE) and 64-slice spiral computed tomography(CT) in the diagnosis of complex congenital heart disease(CHD). Methods Ninety-seven patients diagnosed as CHD by TTE underwent 64-slice spiral CT for cardiovascular examination. The results were compared with the results by cardiovascular angiography and from surgery. Results The total diagnosis accordance rated by TEE was 90. 2% and that by spiral CT was 92.5%. There was no difference in diagnosis accuracy rate between TTE and spiral CT. The diagnosis accuracy rate in intracardiae defomities by TTE was 99.2 %, higher than 87.50% by spiral CT. However, the diagnosis accuracy rate in extracardiac defomities and ventricular-arterial connections was 99. 0% by spiral CT, higher than 78. 6% by TTE. The combination of TTE and spiral CT can raise the diagnosis accuracy rate to 99. 1%. Conclusions TTE is of significant value in complex CHD diagnosis,especially in the diagnosis of intracardiac defomities. The combination of TTE and spiral CT can raise the diagnosis accuracy rate of various kinds of complex CHD.
