  • Effectiveness of Focused Ultrasound Therapy for Non-neoplastic Epithelial Disorders of Vulva

    Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of focused ultrasound therapy for non-neoplastic epithelial disorders of vulva. Methods Totally 90 patients with pathologically confirmed non-neoplastic epithelial disorders of vulva were enrolled in the study and randomized to receive ultrasound therapy(60 patients)or spectrum therapy (30 patients). The short-term effectiveness and recurrence rate were assessed in both groups at 6 months after treatment. Results In the ultrasound group, 29 cases were cured, 25 were significantly improved, 6 were improved and 5 experienced recurrence. Whereas, in the control group, 1 case was cured, 25 were significantly improved, 4 remained unchanged and 21 experienced recurrence. The short-term effectiveness of ultrasound therapy was superior to that of spectrum therapy (Z=-6.191, P=0.000). And ultrasound therapy was associated with a significantly lower rate of recurrence (χ2=-37.02, P=0.000). Conclusions The focused ultrasound therapy appears to be an effective approach in the treatment of non-neoplastic epithelial disorders of vulva.

  • TARGETED COMBINATION AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY EFFECTS OF ANTI-INTERCELLULAR ADHESION MOLECULE 1 TARGETED PERFLUOROOCTYLBROMIDE PARTICLES ON MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION INJURY IN RAT MODEL

    Objective To investigate the targeted combination and anti-inflammatory effects of anti-intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) targeted perfluorooctylbromide (PFOB) particles on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat model. Methods Seventy-six adult Sprague Dawley rats (male or female, weighing 250-300 g) were selected for experiment. The models of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury were established by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 minutes in 30 rats. The expression of ICAM-1 protein was detected by immunohistochemistry staining at 6 hours after reperfusion, and the normal myocardium of 10 rats were harvested as control; then the content of interleukin 8 (IL-8) in serum was tested every 6 hours from 6 hours to 48 hours after reperfusion. The other 36 rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=6): ischemia-reperfusion injury model/targeted PFOB particles group (group A), ischemia-reperfusion injury model/untargeted PFOB group (group B), normal control/targeted PFOB particles group (group C), normal control/untargeted PFOB particles group (group D), ischemia-reperfusion injury model/normal saline group (group E), and sham operation group (group F). The ischemia-reperfusion injury models were established in groups A, B, and E; while a thread crossed under the coronary artery, which was not ligated after open-chest in group F. After 6 hours of reperfusion, 1 mL of corresponding PFOB particles was injected through juglar vein in groups A, B, C, and D, while 1 mL of nomal saline was injected in group E. Ultrasonography was performed in groups A, B, C, and D before and after injection. The targeted combination was tested by fluorescence microscope. The content of IL-8 was tested after 6 and 24 hours of reperfusion by liquid chip technology in groups A, B, E, and F. Results After 6 hours of reperfusion, the expression of ICAM-1 protein significantly increased in the anterior septum and left ventricular anterior wall of the rat model. The content of IL-8 rised markedly from 6 hours after reperfusion, and reached the peak at 24 hours. Ultrasonography observation showed no specific acoustic enhancement after injection of PFOB particles in groups A, B, C, and D. Targeted combination was observed in the anterior septum and left ventricular anterior wall in group A, but no targeted combination in groups B, C, and D. There was no significant difference in the content of IL-8 among groups A, B, and E after 6 hours of reperfusion (P gt; 0.05), but the content in groups A, B, and E was significantly higher than that in group F (P lt; 0.05). After 24 hours of reperfusion, no sigificant difference was found in the content of IL-8 between groups A and B (P gt; 0.05), but the content of IL-8 in groups A and B were significantly lower than that in group E (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Anti-ICAM-1 targeted PFOB particles can target to bind and pretect injured myocardium of rat by its anti-inflammation effects.
