RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA) on uric acid (UA)-induced apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods:(1) Totally 24 SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group, treatment with 3-MA group, hyperuricemic nephropathy (HN) group, and HN+3-MA group, with 6 rats in each group. According to the body weight of the rats, adenine (100 mg/kg) and potassium oxonate (1 500 mg/kg) were mixed with distilled water to make a suspension, and the rats were given intragastrically once daily for consecutive 21 days to establish HN rat model. The control group and the 3-MA treatment group were fed an equivalent amount of distilled water. At the same time, the 3-MA treatment group and the HN+3-MA group were intraperitoneally injected with 3-MA (15 mg/kg), and the control group and HN group were intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of saline once daily for 21 consecutive days. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay (TUNEL) was used to observe renal cell apoptosis. Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax, and immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression and localization of cleaved caspase-3 in renal tissue. (2) Human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) were stimulated with UA (800 μmol/L), and cells were administrated with different concentrations of 3-MA or Beclin-1 small interfering RNA (siRNA). The apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells was detected by Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining.Results:Compared with the normal rats, the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells in the HN group was significantly increased ( P<0.01), and the expression levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax were significantly up-regulated (both P<0.05). Compared with the HN group, the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells in the HN+3-MA group was significantly decreased ( P<0.01). In addition, high level of uric acid could significantly increase the levels of apoptosis associated proteins in HK-2 cells (all P<0.05), and using different concentrations of 3-MA or transfecting with Beclin-1 siRNA could significantly reduce the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Autophagy plays an important role in uric acid-induced apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. Inhibiting the excessive activation of autophagy may be a new strategy to prevent the progression of HN.

Objective To investigate the imaging characteristics and diagnostic value of tri-phase dynamic enhancement scan with CT for acute renal infarction. Methods The image features of CT plain scan and tri-phase dynamic enhancement scan of 10 patients (19 sides) with acute renal infarction were retrospectively analyzed, and the CTA expression of 6 patients were observed. Results Fourteen acute renal infarction lesions of 10 cases were diagnosed. The CT scan showed there were 4 cases with enlargement of kidney, and the other 6 cases were of no abnormality. The tri-phase enhancement CT scan showed there were 6 cases of unilateral renal infarction and 4 cases of bilateral renal infarction, which totally involving 14 sides. The acute renal infarction lesions lacked of high density region in the corticomedullary in cortical phase, and there were wedge-shaped hypodense area, even low density of full kidney in parenchymal phase and pyelographic phase. The a-cute renal infarction lesions were revealed better in parenchymal phase and pyelographic phase than in cortical phase. Six cases of CTA re-vealed the responsible vessels of renal infarction lesions and the other vascular diseases. Conclusion CT tri-phase dynamic enhancement scan has important value in the diagnosis of acute renal infarction, and CTA can identify the responsible vessels of renal infarction lesions.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the correlation between minimum apparent diffusion coefficient ( ADC) values and consistency of intracranial meningiomas of different parts and nature, providing radiographic evidence of selection for surgical approach. Methods The routine MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging imaging (DWI), ADC maps and ADC value of 23 patients (25 cases) who were confirmed as men-ingiomas through surgery and pathology were retrospectively analyzed and compared with the surgical findings and pathology results. Results ADC values in meningiomas with a hard consistency were significantly lower than those with a soft consistency. Meningiomas with low mini-mum ADC were considered to have a hard consistency. Conclusion The consistency of meningiomas is an important factor in developing the strategy of surgical resection and predicting the degree of removal. The minimum ADC value might have clinical use as a predictor of menin-gioma consistency.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare the efficacy of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (PRFA) and repeat hepatectomy for solitary recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with the diameter≤3 cm. Methods The clinical data of 151 patients with recurrent HCC (diameter≤3 cm) who were admitted to the Cancer Center of Sun Yat-Sen University from January 1999 to December 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Of all the patients, 79received PRFA (PRFA group) and 72 received repeat hepatectomy (repeat hepatectomy group). The survival rate, morbidity and recurrence of the tumor between the two groups were compared. All data were analyzed using t test, chi-square test or Log-rank test, and the survival of the patients were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results The mobidities of the PRFA group and repeat hepatectomy group were 13% (10/79) and 36%(26/72), respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (x2=11.411, P＜0.05). The cumulative 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-year survival rates were 89.7%, 75.2%, 67.1%, 61.5%, 56.6% in the PRFA group, and 86.0%, 67.6%, 53.6%, 44.1%, 40.2% in the repeat hepatectomy group, with no significant difference between the two groups (x2=1.610, P＞0.05). The cumulative 4-, 5-year survival rates of the PRFA group were significant higher than those in the repeat hepatectomy group (x2=4.682, 4. 196, P ＜ 0.05). The local tumor recurrence rate of the PRFA group was 5% (4/79), and the incisal margin recurrence rate was 3% (2/72) in the repeat hepatectomy group, with no significant difference between the two groups (x2=0.565, P＞0.05). Conclusion As a less invasive treatment method, PRFA is superior to repeat hepatectomy for solitary recurrent HCC with the diameter≤3 cm.

Objective To investigate method of in vitro measurement of adult Chinese scapula glenoid version angle with MSCT postprocessing technique. Methods Fifty dry scapula specimens and 50 wet anticorrosive shoulder specimens of adult Chinese were scanned with Siemens Somatom Sensation 16 scanner. The scapula glenoid version angle was measured with postprocessing technique of thick or thin multiplanner reformation (MPR), and the data were analyzed statistically. Results The scapula glenoid version angle of dry scapula specimens and wet anticorrosive shoulder specimens was (-0.40±4.10)°, (-3.00±4.49)° with thick MPR, and (-0.34±4.21)°, (-2.70±4.54)° measured with thin MPR, respectively. There was significant difference of the scapula glenoid version angles between the dry scapula specimens and wet anticorrosive shoulder specimens (P0.05). Conclusion Measuring the scapula glenoid version angle with thick MPR of MSCT is simple and fast. The scapula glenoid version angle is markedly variable between the dry scapula specimens and wet anticorrosive shoulder specimens. The retroversion angle of scapula glenoid is about 3°, which should be considered in the design of shoulder prosthesis.
RESUMEN
Objective: To analyze the therapeutic effect of repeated hepatectomy on recurrent hepatocellu-lar carcinoma and prognostic factors. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic data of 48 patients who underwent repeated hepatectomy for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma between July 1995 and July 2003. Overall survival rate and disease-free survival (DFS) rate were calculated by Kaplan-Meier meth-od. Prognostic factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results: The median survival of 48 patients was 36.4 months. The overall 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 81.3%, 45.8%, and 27.1%, re-spectively. The disease-free 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 70.8%, 25.0%, and 16.7%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that TNM stage of primary tumor, TNM stage of the recurrent tumor, vascular in-vasion, recurrent tumor size (>5cm) and recurrence-free interval were prognostic risk factors for overall surviv-al. While TNM stage of primary tumor, recurrent tumor size (>5cm), TNM stage of recurrent tumor, vascular in-vasion, pathological grading of recurrent tumor, preoperative AFP and recurrence-free interval were prognos-tic risk factors for DFS. Multivariate analysis showed that recurrence-free interval and TNM stage of recurrent tumor were independent prognostic risk factors for overall survival. While recurrence-frae interval and recur-rent tumor size (>5cm) were independent prognostic risk factors for DFS. Conclusion: Short recurrence-free in-terval (≤24 months), recurrent tumor size (>5cm) and TNM stage of recurrent tumor indicate poor prognosis of patients who received repeated hepatectomy for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To observe the granule tissue remodeling under neoepithelium in minitype pigs' full thickness dermal wounds and discuss the relation between the remodeling and possible ulcers or scars. Methods After the establishment of eight full-thickness dermal wound models with the diameter of 4 cm on the back of six minitype pigs, the specimens were collected from wound edge and wound center immediately, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 45 days, respectively after injury for HE staining, immunohistochemical staining and Van Gieson staining and then observed under light microscope to count the cell number, fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells as well as evaluate the quantity and arrangement of collagens. Results The mean wound healing time was (29.3?1.8) days. After 9-25 days, the granule tissues in the wound center contained more cells, fibroblasts, collagen and vascular endothelial cells than those under neoepithelium of wound edge (P 0.01). Meanwhile, the collagen quantity and arrangement style of granule tissues under neoepithelium during wounds healing (12-30 days) assembled those under neoepithelium 15 days after wound healing. Conclusion Granule tissue remodeling exists during the healing of full thickness dermal wound.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the micrometastasis distribution in liver tissue surrounding hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and provide reference for appropriate surgical safety margin.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-six patients with HCC but without clinical metastasis underwent hepatectomy. Their specimens showing ample surgical margin were made into giant sections. Tumor micrometastasis in liver tissue around the primary tumor were examined microscopically. In each specimen, the surrounding tissue was divided into proximal(p) and distal(d) areas. In either area, three lines of demarcation 0.5 cm, 1.0 cm, and 2.0 cm away from the margin of the primary tumor were designated as L(0.5), L(1.0) and L(2.0). Therefore, the surrounding tissue was divided into six zones - Z(p0.5), Z(p1.0), Z(p2.0) and Z(d0.5), Z(d1.0), Z(d2.0). The maximum micrometastasis spread distance (MMSD) and density (D(p0.5), D(p1.0), D(p2.0) and D(d0.5), D(d1.0), D(d2.0)) in each zone were analyzed after search for micrometastasis in the giant sections.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>72.5% (111/153) micrometastases were found in form of microscopic tumor emboli. Their spread distance could be up to 6.1 cm. In 66.7% (24/36) specimens, micrometastases were found in the surrounding tissue. In 91.7% (22/24) of them, the distal MMSD was less than 3 cm. The proximal MMSD was less than 1.5 cm in 92.3% (12/13). The comparison of micrometastasis density in the different zones were D(d0.5) > D(d1.0) > D(d 2.0); D(p0.5) > D(p1.0) > D(p2.0); D(d1.0) > D(p1.0); D(d2.0) > D(p2.0) with significant differences.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>(1) Micrometastases of HCC exist mainly in form of microscopic tumor emboli, (2) The longer the distance from the primary focus, the lower the micrometastasis incidence, (3) In zones more than 0.5 cm away from the primary focus, tumor micrometastasis incidence is significantly lower in the proximal zones than that in the distal zones and (4) For HCC patients without clinical metastasis, a surgical margin of 3 cm wide in the distal area and 1.5 cm wide in the proximal area may reduce the rate of postoperative recurrence.</p>

Objective To explore the clinical diagnosis and management of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver. Methods Forty-two FNH cases treated in the past 9 years were studied retrospectively. The clinical and pathologic data were reviewed. Results Preoperative liver function test and AFP were normal. The preoperative radiography in FNH was usually not specific, with less than 50% cases were suggestive of FNH of the liver. Surgical resection resulted in a permanent cure with no significant postoperative complications. More than one year follow-up found recurrence in one case. Conclusion Clinical, laboratory and radiological findings when combined could help in establishing tentative diagnosis of FNH. Surgery is recommended in cases with equivocal diagnosis or in fear of hepatocellular carcinoma.

RESUMEN
Using the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)with final concentration of 4% as cryoproteclant, the human platelets were stored at - 30℃ and - 80℃ to provide cryopreserved platelets transfusion service. The results of in vivo and in vitro studies showed that DMSO could reversibly inhibit the platelet adhesion and its aggregation induced by the single aggregating agent. The platelet abhe-sion and aggregation could be recovered after washing and removing DMSO. The platelet aggregation caused by the combined aggregating agents wasn't influenced by DMSO. The adhesion, aggregation and resulting hypotonic shock reaction of cryopreserved platelets were used to be lower than those of fresh platelets, independent on the storage timed or 3 months). The quality of the platelets stored at - 80℃ was better than that at - 30℃. Being transfused with the platelets stored at - 80# could raise the platelet counts in patients, and effectively prevent and control the haemorrhage caused by thrombocytopenia.
