ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effectiveness of 125I seed implantation for gastric cancer and to determine whether the therapy could increase the survival rate.Methods Seventy-six gastric cancer patients in stage Ⅱ or Ⅲ were involved and randomly divided into treatment group (n =42) and control group (n =34)by simple random sampling method.The patients in the control group underwent D2 or D3 surgery and the patients in treatment group underwent D2 or D3 surgery plus interstitial implantation of 125I seeds.All patients signed the informed consents.Treatment results were evaluated as CR,PR,NC and PD.CR and PR were considered as effective and the effective rate was calculated.All patients were followed up and the three-or five-year survival rate was calculated,the complications were examined.x2 test was used to compare the significant difference between the two groups.Results The total effective rate in control group was 50.00％ (17/34),lower than that of treatment group (73.81％,31/42; x2 =4.578,P＜0.05).In the treatment group,the three-year and five-year survival rates were 61.90％(26/42) and 42.86％(18/42) respectively,and the corresponding rates in the control group were 11.76％(4/34) and 0(0/34) respectively (x2=19.771,19.094,both P＜0.001).Both of the two groups had few severe side effects.Conclusion Radical surgery plus 1~Iseed implantation is effective and safe for the treatment of stage Ⅱ or Ⅲ gastric cancer and can further improvelong-term survival.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the expression of(hyopxia inducible factor-α,HIF-1α)and gax genes on the intimal hyperplasia for venous autografts in rat.Methods Sixteen Wistar rats were randomLy divided into 2 groups,a control group and an experimental group,8 rats in each group.A rat model of venous autografts was established by transplanting the right external jugulars vein into right common carotid artery in 16rats.The transplanted vein in the experimental group was immersed in solution with recombinant adeno-associated virus(rAAV)and HIF-1α by incubation for 45 minutes at 0℃-4℃ before anastomosis and coated using glue gel in which rAAV-gax added just after anastomosis,the control ones were immersed only in the physiological solution in which rAAV solution without HIF-1α gene added,nothing to be coated except for glue gel only.The vein grafts were taken at 14 days after operation,RT-PCR technique,Western blotting and electric microscopy were used to detect the expression of HIF-1α mRNA and protein,gax mRNA and protein,phenotypic switch of VSMC.Results The expression of HIF-1α mRNA,the experimental group(93.1±22.9)bP,the con trol group(42.7±15.9)bP,P<0.01;the exprossion of gax mRNA,the experimental group(106.9±38.7)bP,the contrd group(50.7±25.8)bP,P<0.01;the exprossion of HIF-1α protein,the experimental group(10.86±2.76)kD,the control group(4.52±1.90)kD,P<0.01;the expression of gax protein,the experimental group(13.65±3.35)kD,the control group(5.40±2.26)kD,P<0.01;VSMC proliferation,the experinental group(21.3±5.4)%,the control group(41.2±8.6)%,P<0.05.Conclusion The present study demonstrated that HIF-1α and gax genes transfection could inhibit proliferation of VSMC and their phenotypic conversion from contractile phenotype to synthetic phenotype in venous autografts.
ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the curative effect of percutem transilluminated with negative pressured on the potaried technique on the treatment of venous ulcer in lower extremity.Methods The clinical date of 300 cases involving 300 legs with venous ulcer in lower extremity,who underwent the percutum transilluminated negative pressured potaried technique using TRIVEXTM Ⅱ potaried system or the percutum transfixion surgical treatment from October 2005 to June 2009,were analyzed.Three hundred cases were randomly divided into potaried group and transfixion group.In potaried group,there were 190 cases involving 190 legs treated with TRIVEXTM Ⅱ potaried system.In transfixion group,110 cases involving 110 legs treated with percutum transfixion.The clinical indexes of skin infection rate and skin necrosis rate,shrinkage rate of wound area and skin depigmentation rate,ulcer healing rate and ulcer recurrence rate were calculated to assess the clinical curative effect on day 5,day 20,day 120 and day 360 after operation respectively.Results The rates of skin infection and skin necrosis were significantly decreased in potaried group compared with transfixion group on day 5 after operation (P0.05).Ulcer recurrence rate was remarkably lower in potaried group than that in transfixion group on day 360 (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate short-term curative effect of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Methods Twelve cases of infra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysms were checked. Results The av-erage bleeding in the operation was 245 millimeter, the avenage hospitalization time was 8.6 days, and the average abrosia time was 1.5 days. White blood cell, hemoglobin, thrombocyte, hepatic function, and renal function were in the normal limits. Prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time were post-poned after operation, and recovered normally within one week. Complications of operations were as follows:1 case of pulmonary infection, 2 cases of abdominal distention, and 1 case of intraoperafive endoleak. The former two kinds of complications alleviated after conventional treatment, and the latter disappeared naturally after 3 months. Conclusion Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is safe, mini-invasive, and has little disturbance for body internal environment.
