ABSTRACT
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of detecting cytokine expression with Crohn's disease(CD) by Luminex liquid chip.Methods A total of 76 patients with CD and 50 healthy volunteers as healthy control group were recruited in this study.The expression of cytokines IL-2,IFN-γ,TNF-α,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10 and IL-17A were detected by Luminex liquid chip according to the instruction of MILLIPLEX MAP Kit.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to detect the levels of anti-saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies(ASCA).Then the relationship and differences among these groups were analyzed.Results Except IL-17A,the level of IL-2,IFN-γ,TNF-α,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10 was higher in the CD group than those in control group.The serum levels of IFN-γ,TNF-α and IL-6 in patients with active stage of CD group were significantly higher than those with remission stage and healthy control group.The level of TNF-α and IL-6 in moderate and severe stages were higher than those in slight stage.The serum level of ASCA had significant difference between CD group and control group.Compared with ASCA negative group,the ASCA positive patients have a higher level of IL-6 and TNF-α.ConclusionThe cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-α is correlated with CD severity,which is important for inflammatory activity and progression of CD.Altogether,these results demonstrated that the dynamic change of cytokines had a clear relativity in stage of CD,which is very imperative for diagnosis and clinical appraisal of CD.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the expression of Gankyrin in gastric carcinoma and preancerious lesions (including chronic atrophic gastritis and gastric epithelial dysplasia)and its clinicopathological significance.Methods Immunohistochemical assay was performed to de-tect the Gankyrin expression in 30 casess of normal gastric mucosa,60 cases of chronic atrophic gastritis,30 cases of gastric epithelial dyspla-sia,and 84 cases of gastric carcinoma.Moreover,the relationship between Gankyrin expression and clinicopathological features of gastric car-cionma was analyzed.Results Gankyrin expression was detected in normal gastric mucosa,chronic atrophic gastritis,gastric epithelial dys-plasia,and gastric carcinoma tissues in varying degrees,and the difference of Gankyrin positive rates was significant in different gastric leions mentioned above (P <0.05).The rate of Gankyrin expression in gastric carcinoma was significantly related with the clinical stage and metas-tasis.There’s no relationship between Gankyrin expression and the age,gender of patients,size,histologic grade of gastric carcinoma.Con-clusion Gankyrin participates in both the carcinogenesis and development of gastric carcinoma.Moreover,Gankyrin is a potential target for the diagnosis,prevention and treatment of gastric carcinoma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the diagnosis measures and treatment methods of white line hernia. Methods Analyze the clinical data of 12 cases of white line hernia who were treated by surgery. We performed peritoneal adipose tissue before resection on hernia without hernial sac type. And for those with hernial sac type, apothesis of material in hernia were firstly made, then ligated the hernia sac neck and resection were made. Then according to the white line defect size, we used pure involution suture and Onlay without tension patch repair to repair defect in the white line. Results Surgery of all the 12 cases were successful. 2 cases of them merged postoperative renal dysfunction and infection, and after hemodialysis and anti-infection treatment, they both recoverd well without recurrence. Conclusion There is no spe-cific symptoms and signs in white line hernia, but incarceration and strangulation may cause life threaten, so we should pay more attention to it. For symptomatic, large, difficult, incarcerated or strangulated white line hernia,we should take timely surgical treatment.
