Objective To investigate the choleenterostomy type and the longterm results in treatment of benign diseases of biliary tract. MethodsA total of 614 cases of choleenterostomy from January 1981 to December 2000 were followed up and analysed. The original diseases: 321 were original hepatolithiasis and/or bileduct stricture (52.3%), 106 congenital cyst of common bile duct (17.3%), 151 iatrogenic bile duct injury (24.6%) and others 36 cases (5.9%). Choledochoduodenostomy was performed in 89 cases and choledochojejunostomy in 525 cases. Five hundred and twentyfour cases have been followed up for 1 to 20 years. The rate of followup was 87.9%. ResultsIn 84.5% of the cases, excellent or good longterm results were achieved. Reoperation rate were 49.4% in cases of choledochoduodenostomy or cystoduodenostomy, 14.2% in sideside (cyst) cholangiojejunostomy and 4.4% in endside cholangiojejunostomy, respectively. Conclusion The choledochoduodenostomy should be abolished. The endside cholangiojejunostomy shoud be the best choice when it is needed to perform choledochojejunostomy in benign bile duct diseases and can promise a satisfactory longterm result.
Objective To study the distribution of P2 Y2 receptor in spine cord, dorsal root ganglia and sciatic nerve in rat, and to provide the basis for clarifying the mechanism of the effect of adenosine triphosphate(ATP) on the peripheral nerve regeneration. Methods Six specimens of the spine cord, dorsal root ganglia and sciatic nerve from SD rats were fixed rapidly in 4% paraformaldehyde which included DEPC, imbedded by paraffin and made into ultrathin section. According to the sequence of P2 Y2 receptor’s gene, DNA needle was adopted to detect the distribution of P2 Y2 receptor by hybridization technique in section under the light microscope after theyhad been stained in NBT liquid(50 mg/ml) and BCIP liquid (75 mg/ml). In thecontrol group, the ultrathin section was only covered with hybridism buffer solution. The result of staining was observed. ResultsHybridization in section showed that P2 Y2 receptor was distributed mainly in the anterior horn cell of spine cordgray matter and Schwann cell of the dorsal root ganglia. No P2 Y2 receptor was observed in the sciatic nerve of both groups. Conclusion P2 Y2 receptor is located mainly in the spine cord and the dorsal root ganglia. Extracellular ATP can affect the cell of spine cord, dorsal root ganglia through P2 Y2 receptor.
Objective To evaluate long-term clinical results in patients who underwent mitral valve replacement and suture tricuspid annuloplasty. Methods We included 401 patients who underwent mitral valve replacement and suture tricuspid annuloplasty in our hospital between January 2006 and March 2011. There were 309 females and 92 males at age of 17-71 (46.2±12.0) years. All patients were investigated by echocardiography at postoperative 5 years. The tricuspid valve procedures consisted of bicuspidization, modified Kay annuloplasty and leaflet repair according to the actual conditions. Results The patients were followed up for 5–10 (7.4±1.4) years. As compared with preoperation, the right atrium (RA, 7.6±13.0 mm vs. 49.3±13.2 mm), right ventrium (RV, 23.2±4.7 mm vs. 22.0±3.6 mm), left atrium (LA, 59.7±19.0 mm vs. 53.6±14.7 mm, left ventrium (LV, 49.3±8.6 mm vs. 47.7±6.2 mm), tricuspid of end-distolic diameters (TEDD, 35.9±5.7 mm vs. 32.8±5.9 mm) and tricuspid of end-systolic diameters (TESD, 9.4±5.7 mm vs. 26.5±4.9 mm) of patients decreased significantly at postoperation (P<0.01). As compared with preoperation, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, 60.3%±8.9% vs. 61.7%±8.3%) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS, 32.6%±6.3% vs. 33.8%±5.5%) raised significantly at postoperation (P<0.01). As compared with preoperation, the constituent rate of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) improved significantly at postoperation (P<0.01). Conclusion Tricuspid annuloplasty adopting TEDD as a surgical indication is reasonable for patients with mitral diseases. Combined and individualized suture tricuspid annuloplasty can obtain better long-term results. It is needed to order aggressive diuretics treatment for patients with postoperative TR.
ObjectiveTo discuss clinical characteristics and nursing countermeasure of pregnant/delivery women with tuberculosis. MethodsFrom January 2012 to December 2013, 52 cases of pregnant women complicated with tuberculosis were included. We offered specific nursing according to the psychological counseling, reasonable administration, diet nursing, fever and prevention of hospital infection on the base of their clinical features, and then analyzed the effect. ResultsIn 52 patients who had undergone the tuberculosis and obsterrics and gynecology treatment, 4 puerperal patients died of severe pneumonia and multiple organ failure; in 48 gestational patients with tuberculosis, 23 early-middle term patients accept termination of pregnancy, and in 25 middle-late term patients, 3 had full-term natural labor, 4 underwent full-term cesarean section, 5 had premature labor, and 13 continued the pregnacy. Sixteen neonatus (including 4 given at the other hospitals) had normal results of physical examination without any deformity, in whom 5 had low body weight (body weight less than 2500 g), with negative results of tuberculin test and the result of 3-moth follow-up was normal. Three months after the anti-tuberculosis treatment, the lesion was obviously absorbed in 25 patients and in 23 patients within half of a year. No patients had hospital infection. ConclusionNursing care of pregnant patients with tuberculosis should strengthen the guidance on the patients health education, improve their compliance and self-protection knowledge. Also should strengthen the basic level medical personnel training and improve the ability of early diagnosis of tuberculosis and early treatment to reduce maternal mortality.

Objective To explore the surgical method and cl inical short-term outcomes of internal fixation combined closed reduction with arthroscope aid in treating patellar fracture. Methods From June 2004 to July 2008, 42 patients with fresh simple patellar fracture underwent internal fixation combined closed reduction with arthroscope aid, included28 males and 14 females, aged 16-59 years (35 years on average). The locations were 19 left knees and 23 right knees. Injury was by traffic accident in 21 cases, by fall ing in 11 cases, by sports in 7 cases and by crush in 3 cases. All the patients had fresh closed fracture, including 38 cases of transverse fracture and 4 cases of stellate fracture. The Lysholm score was 68.60 ± 15.20; the proprioceptive function of the knee joints was (3.72 ± 0.12)°. The time from injury to operation was 3-42 hours (12 hours on average). After the treatment of affil iated injury under the arthroscope, patellar fracture was reduced with manipulation method, fracture was fixed with tensile force screw or modified tension band. Results All incisions obtained heal ing by first intention after operation, 42 patients were followed up for 12-39 months (16 months on average). The X-ray films showed callus at the fracture and the smooth cartilage surface 6-9 weeks (7 weeks on average) after operation. The flexed motion range of knee joint at last follow-up was at normal range in 38 cases, was l imited in 4 cases. Circumference of suffered l imbs 15 cm above the patella was the same as normal ones in 23 cases, atrophied 0.7 cm in 19 cases. There were no breakage of internal fixation and shift of fracture and patellofemoral arthritis at last follow-up. The proprioceptive function of the knee joints was (2.06 ± 0.11)° and the Lysholm score was 95.10 ± 3.92; all showing statistically significant differences when compared with preoperation (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion This treatment method has advantages as follows: mini-wound, early exercises and few compl ications, which can rinse articular cavity and repair the affil iated injury at the same time.
Objective To compare the effect of two types of intermittent pressure on formation of pressure ulcer in rabbit hind l imbs and to investigate the mechanism of gradually changed intermittent pressure produced by waves bed in the prevention of pressure ulcer. Methods Gracil is (3 cm2) in both hind l imbs of 12 adult Japanese white rabbits were randomlyloaded with gradually changed intermittent pressure (50-160 mm Hg, 1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) and sustained pressure (100 mmHg) serving as the experimental group and the control group, respectively. The experiment was terminated after 4 cycles, and a single cycle included 2 hours of compression and 30 minutes of compression-release. Blood velocity of hind l imbs and blood perfusion of wound were detected by bidirectional doppler blood flow detector and laser doppler perfusion imaging detection system before compression and at every 10 minutes in compression-release period of each cycle (0, 10, 20 and 30 minutes). After the termination, gross observation of the wound was conducted, pathomorphological changes of tissues from compressed area were observed by HE staining, and contents of NO, malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in muscle tissue were measured using colorimetry method. Results No significant difference was evident between two groups in terms of blood flow velocity before compression (P gt; 0.05); the blood flow velocity of two groups decreased significantly at 0 minute in every compressionrelease period of each cycle, and no significant differences were noted between two groups (P gt; 0.05); the blood flow velocity of theexperimental group was higher than that of the control group at 10, 20 and 30 minutes (P lt; 0.05). No significant difference was noted between two groups in terms of wound blood perfusion before compression (P gt; 0.05); the wound blood perfusion of two groups decreased significantly at 0 minute in every compression-release period of each cycle, and no significant differences were noted between two groups (P gt; 0.05); the difference between two groups was not significant at 10 minutes in the first cycle (P gt; 0.05), and the experimental group was higher than the control group at 20 and 30 minutes in the first cycle (P lt; 0.05). In the following 3 cycles, the recovery of perfusion in the experimental group was faster than that of the control group (P lt; 0.05). Gross observation showed the experimental group had less effusion than the control group. The experimental group had intact cutaneous appendage, less inflammatory cell infiltration, and no obvious ulcer formation, whereas the control group had obvious skin ulcer, depletion of cutaneous appendage, and more inflammatory cells infiltration. Significant differences were noted between two groups in terms of NO, MDA, and SOD content (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Gradually changed intermittent pressure can maintain the blood perfusion of tissue, reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury and cell apoptosis, and prevent the formation of pressure ulcer.
It has been proved that the bovine seminal plasma contains rich source of NGF around 0.1mg of pure NGF can be isolated from 10ml bovine seminal plasma. Modifying Gregory s method, we first successfully obtained the low molecular weight form of bovine NGF in China.We chose the dorsal root sensory ganglia (DRG) of embryonic chicken as a cultured nerve tissue, the NGF purified from seminal plasma is added to cultural plate with 96 holes. The cultural process was without plus serum and showed the high biological activity. It was found that this method has the advantages of simple technique, satisfactory result. It is an ibeal method for assaying the biological effect of NGF.
Objective To investigate the effects of intermittent negative pressure on the mRNA expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and osteoprotegerin l igand (OPGL) in human BMSCs cultured in vitro. Methods BMSCs were isolated from adult marrow donated by 2 hip osteoarthritis patients with prosthetic replacement in January 2008 and cultured in vitro. The third passage cells were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group was induced by negative pressure intermittently for 2 weeks (pressure: 50 kPa, 30 minutes each time, twice per day) and the control groupwas routinely cultured. After 2 weeks of culture, cell morphology was observed by inverted phase contrast microscope, and the mRNA expressions of OPG and OPGL in BMSCs were analyzed by real-time PCR. Results The cell prol iferation speed of the experimental group was slower than that of the control group. The cell morph changed from shuttle to megagon with some prominences in experimental group and the cell morph kept shuttle in the control. The mRNA expression of OPG in experimental group increased significantly (P lt; 0.01) and the mRNA expression of OPGL in experimental group decreased significantly compared with control group (P lt; 0.01) 2 weeks later. Conclusion Intermittent negative pressure is capable of promoting the expression of OPG, while inhibiting the expression of OPGL in human BMSCs.
Objective To evaluate the effect of transpupillary thermo therapy (TTT) on the treatment of intraocular tumors. Methods A total of 50 patients with intraocular tumors, including 37 choroidal hemangioma, 2 retinal capillary hemangioma, 5 choroidal osteoma, 4 choroidal melanoma, and 2 retinoblastoma (RB) underwent TTT and were followed up for 1~20 months. Results In 30 patients with choroidal hemangioma (average follow-up was 5.1 months), 29 (96.7%) had pigment scarring in different levels and the retinal detachemnts were partly or completely recovered; 1 had no obvious improvement. The visual acuity was unchanged in 24 (80.0%) patients, improved in 41 (13.3%) and declined in 2 (6.7%). In 2 patients with retinal capillary hemangioma, no effect was found. In 5 eyes (4 patients) with choroidal osteoma (average follow-up was 6 months), no change of the tumor was found in 1 and the atrophic spots were seen in 4; the visual acuity was unchanged in 3, improved in 1 and declined in 1. In 4 patients with choroidal melanoma (average follow-up was 8 months), the tumor was shrunken in 1, unchanged in 2, and enlarged in 1; the visual acuity was unchanged in 2 and declined in 2. In 2 patients with RB, RB was totally shrunken in 1 and partly shrunken in 1. Visual acuity of one child patient who was followed up for 20 months could not be examined, and was unchanged in another one who was followed up for 3 months. No severe complications were found in the patients during the treatment and the follow-up. Conclusions TTT is effective for the treatment of some intraocular tumors except retinal capillary hemangioma. It is a kind of potential treatment for intraocular tumors with few side-effect.
