Objective To study the inhibitive effect of adenovirus mediated CD gene and 5-FC on proliferative human retinal pigment epithelial (HRPE) cells, and to search for an effective method to take precautions against proliferative vitroretinopathy (PVR).Method Different concentrations of CD and 5-FC were added respectively to the cultured third-growth-generation HRPE cells.Transferance rate was detected by positive HRPE cells marked by X-gal and LacZ. The number of HRPE cells were counted and evaluated by methylthiazol-tetrazollium (MTT) method. Results The adenovirus mediated CD gene could be transfered into HRPE cells with a dose-dependent manner. Positive HRPE cells with CD gene could transform 5-FC to 5-Fu,which could inhibit the increase of HRPE cells effectively. No obvious bystander effect on the growth of HRPE cells was detected.Conclusions The adenovirus may introduce a foreign gene into cultured HRPE cells efficiently. It could be a good method to treat and prevent PVR by medication. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2003，19：168-171)
Objective To explore the effects of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with fluorouracil (FU) on the growth and metastasis of tumor cells in carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum. Methods Fifty male H-22 mice of clean grade were selected and randomly assigned into 5 groups in each group with 10: simple implantation group, pneumoperitoneum group, pneumoperitoneum and NS group, pneumoperitoneum and low concentration (5.0 g/L) of FU group and pneumoperitoneum and high concentration (10.0 g/L) of FU group. All mice were executed after 11 days to observe the weight and the implantation of tumor in abdominal wall. Then the expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results The tumor weight was significantly higher in pneumoperitoneum and high concentration of FU group compared with other groups except pneumoperitoneum and low concentration of FU group (P＜0.05, P＜0.01 ). The inhibition rate of tumor was 64.5% in pneumoperitoneum and high concentration of FU group. The diameter of portsite implantation nodus was significantly bigger in pneumoperitoneum and NS group compared with pneumoperitoneum and low concentration of FU group and pneumoperitoneum and high concentration of FU group (P＜0.01). The expressions of PCNA and VEGF of ascites and portsite implantation nodus were significantly different in every group, respectively (P＜0.05, P＜0.01). Conclusion There is inhibitive effect of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with high concentration of FU on the growth and metastasis of S-180 tumor cells in CO2 pneumoperitoneum, which may be associated with downregulation of PCNA and VEGF expressions.
ObjectiveTo understand the research progress of treatment of hyperkalemia after simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPK), and to provide the basis for the prevention and treatment of hyperkalemia after SPK.MethodThe relevant literatures about hyperkalemia after SPK in recent years were reviewed.ResultsThe pancreas and kidney that maintained the stability of serum potassium in different ways had been confirmed in current studies. The newly transplanted organ dysfunction after SPK and the use of drugs after SPK both caused hyperkalemia. The treatment principle of hyperkalemia after SPK was to take corresponding prevention and treatment measures according to different reasons.ConclusionsSPK is the best treatment for diabetic renal failure. Postoperative hyperkalemia is one of the most common complications, and timely and correct management is of great significance to the survival and prognosis of patients.
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of mytomycin C versus 5-fluorouracil for trabeculectomy. Methods We electronically searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (Issue 3, 2008), MEDLINE (1966 to October 2008), EMbase (1947 to October 2008), CMBdisk (1979 to October 2008).We also handsearched relevant conference proceedings. Data were extracted by two reviewers independently using an extraction form. The Cochrane Collaboration’ s RevMan 5.0 software was used for statistical analyses. Results Nine randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 482 participants (495eyes) were identified. The trials enrolled three types of participants (high risk of failure, moderate risk of failure, low risk of failure). As for high risk of failure, compared with mytomycin C, 5-fluorouracil appeared to increase the rate of postoperative complications (RR –5.74, 95%CI –9.91, –1.58). No significant differences were found in postoperative mean intraocular pressure(IOP) (WMD –?2.31, 95%CI –?7.34, 2.71), success rate (RR 1.13, 95%CI 0.91, 1.39) and visual acuity ≥3-line decrease (RR 1.46, 95%CI 0.43, 4.94). As for low risk of failure, there were no significant differences in success rate (RR 1.10, 95%CI 0.99, 1.22) and postoperative complications (RR 1.00, 95%CI –6.21, 8.21). Conclusion In both groups of high risk and low risk of failure, there are no significant differences in postoperative mean IOP and success rate. However, in the group of high risk of failure, compared with 5-fluorouracil, mytomycin C appears to raise the rate of postoperative complications; the rate of reducing the eyes pressure cannot be concluded based on current evidence. However, as the number of the studied cases is rather small and the period of observation is also limited, long-term follow-up of multi-central RCTs with a larger number of cases are still needed before definite conclusions can be made. Further studies are also needed to better determine the pharmacokinetics and cost-effective analyses involving the use of the two agents for glaucoma filtering surgery.
目的觀察直腸癌術中局部植入氟尿嘧啶緩釋劑（5-FU SRI）的可行性及療效。 方法92例直腸癌患者分成治療組和對照組，治療組術中在瘤床和沿淋巴引流途徑分多點植入5-FU SRI 600 mg，對照組行常規直腸癌根治術，觀察2組患者的手術情況、毒副反應、近期并發癥及遠期療效。 結果2組的手術時間、出血量以及腹膜炎、吻合口漏、腸梗阻和切口感染發生率的差異均無統計學意義（P＞0.05）；2組患者的白細胞計數、肌酐及ALT水平治療后高于治療前（P＜0.05），但2組間差異無統計學意義（P＞0.05）。治療組腹腔局部復發率及遠處轉移率均較對照組低（P＜0.05）。 結論直腸癌術中植入5-FU SRI是安全可行的，是預防術后復發轉移的有效途徑。
