Oligozoospermia and asthenospermia are common causes of clinical male infertility. The number of patients increases year by year and shows a younger trend. Its etiology is complex， the mechanism and unclear pathogenesis and rely on empirical therapy. Therefore， it is necessary for exploring the pathogenesis and developing corresponding drugs to establish reasonable animal models. By comparing different animal model making methods， this paper provides ideas for constructing a more standardized animal model of oligoasthenospermia. At the moment， a lot of molding methods for oligoasthenospermia are available. Combined with the animal experimental articles of oligoasthenospermia in recent years， this study described the modeling with adenine， ornidazole， tripterygium glycoside， hydrocortisone， cyclophosphamide， busulfan， paclitaxel， heat stress， ionizing radiation， high-fat diet， and gene knockout， respectively， and compared the modeling methods in terms of the time， indexes， animal line， and model evaluation. Thereby， the advantages and disadvantages of different models of oligoasthenospermia were summarized， and finds that the existing animal models of oligoasthenospermia still have many shortcomings that need to be further improved. The selection， standardization and innovation of animal models need to be solved urgently， and the coincidence between animal models and clinical patients' traditional Chinese medicine syndromes is not coincident. In view of the existing problems， we should further explore how to build a modeling method in line with clinical characteristics and syndrome types， select the compound model method of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine， copy the model closer to the law of disease development and in line with traditional Chinese medicine syndrome， and provide animal experimental support for exploring the mechanism of disease， developing characteristic drugs and guiding clinical medication.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE：To study the metabolic transformation of total glycosides of Cistanche deserticola in artificial gastric and intestinal juice，and to speculate its metabolic transformation pathway in vivo. METHODS：UPLC/Q-TOF-MS was adopted. The determination was performed on ACQUITY UPLC BEH column with mobile phase consisted of 0.2％ formic acid water-acetonitrile（gradient elution）at the flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 330 nm，and column temperature was 25 ℃. The ion source was electrospray ion source，and mass to charge ratio（m/z）was 50→1 000. In the positive and negative ion mode，the metabolic components of the total glycosides of C. deserticola in artificial gastric and intestinal juice were identified analysis，and combined with the literature，the metabolic pathway of total glycosides of C. deserticola in artificial gastric and intestinal juice was speculated. RESULTS：After the total glycosides of C. deserticola were metabolized by artificial gastric juice，and a total of 69 components were estimated，including 14 prototype components （such as Mustard aldehyde glucoside，daucosstorol） and 55 metabolic components （such as Methyl-O-Kankanoside J，Methyl-O-Kankanoside E），it is speculated that its metabolic pathways were methylation，demethylation，hydroxylation，methoxylation，acetylation，sulfation，and glucuronidation. After the total glycosides of C. deserticola were metabolized by artificial intestinal juice，a total of 90 components were estimated，including 4 prototype components（such as Kankanoside M，Kankanoside L）and 86 metabolic components（such as Methyl-O-Kankanoside， Methyl-O-Kankanoside E）. It was speculated that its metabolic pathways were methylation， demethylation，hydroxylation，dehydroxylation，methoxylation，acetylation，sulfation and glucuronidation. CONCLUSIONS：This study preliminarily speculates that the total glycosides of C. deserticola may be metabolized by methylation，demethylation， hydroxylation and other metabolic pathway in artificial gastrointestinal juice，which may provide reference for the in vivo metabolic transformation of total glycosides of C. deserticola.

Objective To explore the clinical value of uncinate process resection combined with portalsuperior mesenteric vein resection and end-to-end anastomosis in distal pancreatectomy.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 11 patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy combined with portal-superior mesenteric vein resection and end-to-end anastomosis in the Peking University Cancer Hospital (8 patients) and Jilin Guowen Hospital (3 patients) between January 2014 to April 2018 were collected.During the vascular reconstruction,uncinate process of the pancreas was first resected for reducing anastomotic tension,and then end-to-end anastomosis was done after portal-superior mesenteric vein resection.Observation indicators:(1) intraoperative situations;(2) postoperative recovery situations;(3) postoperative pathological examination situations;(4) follow-up and survival situations.Follow-up using outpatient examination and imaging examination was performed to detect patients' postoperative survival,tumor recurrence and metastasis and postoperative venous anastomotic patency up to May 2018.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as x±s.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).The non-recurrence and non-metastasis survival curve,overall survival curve and survival rate were respectively drawn and calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.Results (1) Intraoperative situations:11 patients received uncinate process resection of the pancreas,and successfully underwent distal pancreatectomy combined with portal-superior mesenteric vein resection and end-to-end anastomosis.Eight patients underwent distal pancreatectomy + Appleby combined with celiac axis resection due to pancreatic tumor involving common hepatic artery,including 2 undergoing combined total gastrectomy due to gastric ischemia;2 patients underwent distal pancreatectomy;1 patient underwent distal pancreatectomy + distal gastrectomy due to blood supply obstacle of distal stomach.Operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of 11 patients were (5.8± 1.1) hours and 800 mL (range,200-2 500 mL).(2) Postoperative recovery situations:there was no grade C of pancreatic fistula of 11 patients.Four patients had grade B of pancreatic fistula,including 2 were cured by drainage-tube indwelling of pancreatic wound ＞ 3 weeks,1 was cured by continous washing due to pancreatic fistula combined with infection,and 1 was cured by the second abdominal puncture drainage due to pancreatic fistula with fever;1 of 4 patients was combined with grade C of delayed gastric emptying and cured by conservative treatment,and other 3 patients didn't occur postoperative complications.Of 5 patients diagnosed as biochemical fistula,1 had esophagus-jejunum anastomotic leakage,and 1 had changes of hepatic ischemia in S2,S3 and S4b segments by CT examination and recovered normal liver function at 2 weeks postoperatively,with long-term hepatatrophia in S2 and S3 segments.There was no postoperative death and reoperation in 11 patients.Duration of postoperative hospital stay of 11 patients was (22± 5) days.(3) Postoperative pathological examination results:tumors of 11 patients were located in neck and body of the pancreas,with a maximum diameter of (4.8± 1.7)cm.Among 11 patients,10 were confirmed with moderate-or low-differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma and 1 with anaplastic carcinoma.The length of portal-superior mesenteric vein resection of 11 patients was (2.6± 0.8) cm.Seven of 11 patients occurred different degrees of tumor infiltration in the portal-superior mesenteric vein,and other 4 patients occurred inflammatory adhesion,without tumor infiltration.(4) Follow-up and survival situations:11 patients were followed up for 3.0-37.6 months,with a median time of 15.7 months.During the follow-up,8 patients died of tumor recurrence and /or metastasis,and 3 survived;the non-recurrence and non-metastais survival time and overall survival time were respectively 9.0 months (range,3.0-37.6 months) and 24.6 months (range,3.0-37.6 months).One patient was complicated with anastomotic stenosis and surrounding varices of portal-superior mesenteric vein by postoperative half-year reexamination,anastomotic vein anomalies and venous thrombosis were not found in other patients before local tumor recurrence and / or death.Conclusion The combined uncinate process resection of the pancreas cannot increase the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula,and it could effectively reduce the anastomotic tension in the distal pancreatectomy combined with portal-superior mesenteric vein resection and reconstruction,meanwhile,it can also achieve end-to-end anastomosis after longer vein resection.

BACKGROUNDThe management of Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is controversial due to the early recurrence after curative hepatectomy, and many variables were related to the prognosis. The purpose of this study was to predict the tumor recurrence in early postoperative period of the patients with BCLC stage B HCC.

METHODSFrom January 2004 to January 2012, 104 patients with BCLC stage B HCC underwent hepatectomy. Clinicopathological factors and follow-up data were statistically analyzed to establish a predicting scoring system.

RESULTSThe overall survival rates for one, three, and five years were 69.2%, 52.7%, and 42.3%, and the disease-free survival rates for one, three, and five years were 52.9%, 47.3%, and 37.5%, respectively. The multiple factors analysis showed that the micro-vessel invasion, lymph nodes metastasis, multiple lesions, and the high expression of HMGB1 were independent factors (P < 0.05). A scoring system was established to predict the early recurrence within one year after the surgery for BCLC stage B HCC, according to the analysis results with a specificity of 85.1% and a sensitivity of 80.3%.

CONCLUSIONVariant clinicopathological factors were associated with early postoperative recurrence for BCLC stage B HCC and recurrence early after hepatectomy was more likely in patients with a higher score of the scoring system.
