With the gradual increase in the diagnosis rate of early gastric cancer, clinicians must consider prevention of gastric anatomical structure and physiological function while ensuring the radical treatment of the tumor. Pylorus-preserving gastrectomy is a function- preserving operation that preserves the pylorus, inferior pyloric vessel, and the vagus nerve in patients with early middle gastric cancer. One of the major controversies at present is the thoroughness of limited lymph node dissection for pyloric-preserving gastrectomy. Various studies have reported that the lymph node metastasis rate of early middle gastric cancer was low, especially in the suprapyloric region, inferior pylorus and the upper pancreatic region. Partial lymph node dissection is required for vascular and neurological protection, which is also safe and feasible in studies reported by major centers. Many clinical studies have been carried out in Japan and Korea, and postoperative follow-up has gradually increased evidence, providing the basis for the safety of lymph node dissection. In large case studies comparing pylorus- preserving gastrectomy with traditional distal gastrectomy, the incidence of postoperative morbidity, such as dumping syndrome, bile reflux esophagitis, weight loss, and malnutrition is low. Sentinel lymph node navigation technology is gradually applied to the diagnosis and treatment of early gastric cancer, and its clinical application value still needs further research.

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of transanal stapler partial rectal resection for rectocele. Methods: From January 2012 to January 2018, 90 patients with rectocele treated in Changzhi Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital were divided into control group (45 cases) and observation group (45 cases) according to the operation method.The control group was treated with closed transrectal repair, while the observation group was treated with partial rectal resection with anal stapler.The operative effect, incidence of postoperative complications, recurrence rate, degree of pain after operation, length of hospital stay and cost of treatment were compared between the two groups. Results: The total effective rate of the two groups was 100.0%.The incidence of complications in the observation group was 2.2%(1/45), which was lower than that in the control group [17.8%(8/45)] (χ²=4.444, P=0.035). The recurrence rate in the observation group was 0(0/45), which was lower than that in the control group [13.3%(6/45)] (χ²=4.464, P=0.035). The hospitalization time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group[(7.01±2.06)d vs.(11.31±2.42)d]. Compared with the control group, the treatment cost of the observation group was higher[(0.836±0.164)×10⁴CNY vs.(0.605±0.136)×10⁴CNY], and the post-operative pain score was lower[(4.24±1.33) vs.(6.45±1.17)](t=9.076, 7.273, 8.369, all P<0.001). Conclusion Transanal stapler partial rectal resection is effective in the treatment of rectocele, with less complications, lower recurrence rate and less pain after operation, but the cost of treatment is higher.

Despite the extremely high mortality and disability rates of intracerebral hemorrhage, there are currently no effective interventions to improve the outcomes. More and more research shows that statins may be a new method for treating intracerebral hemorrhage. However, there is still much controversy about the relationship between statins therapy and intracerebral hemorrhage. This article reviews the recent studies on the relationship between statins and intracerebral hemorrhage.

A Cleanert Alumina-N-SPE column (0.5 g/6 mL) chromatograpy with 5 mL of chloroform-methanol (7: 3) as eluent, instead of aluminum oxide column (100-200 mesh, 5 g, 1 cm) chromatograpy eluted successively with chloroform and the chloroform-methanol (7:3) (20 mL each), was applied to enrich matrine and oxymatrine in Sophora flavescens. Also, the optimization of the HPLC determination conditions with acetonitrile-ethanol absolute-3% phosphoric acid solution (84: 6: 10) as mobile phase, instead of acetonitrile-ethanol absolute -3% Phosphoric acid solution (80: 10: 10) recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010 Edition, was more suitable for determination of matrine and oxymatrine in S. flavescens. This method has advantage of reducing sample handling time and solvent volume and increasing the accuracy and feasibility, which can simplify the procedure for determination of matrine and oxymatrine in S. flavescens.

Level of performance (OR=1.177, 95％CI=0.988-1.402), degree of satisfaction with learning (OR=1.674, 95％ CI=1.341-2.089), and professional interest (OR=2.153, 95％CI=1 . 776-2 . 610 ) were the positive influencing factors for learning immersion (P<0.05) and were positively correlated with learning immersion experience . Grade , source of origin , duty , learning stress , school satisfaction, and life satisfaction had no influence on learning immersion experience (P>0.05). Conclusion Learning immersion experience is at a moderate level among medical students. Improvement of medical students' performance, learning satisfaction,and professional interest helps to improve their immersion experience. Strengthening the attention to work immersion and enhancing learning immersion experience among medical students are beneficial to medical student education and cultivation of qualified medical talents.

To compare the differences between Hengshanhuangqi (HH) and Chuanhuangqi (CH) at molecular level, 1H NMR based plant metabolomics approach was used to reveal the chemical difference between HH and CH. Then, the contents of astragaloside IV and calycosin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside, the marker compounds specified in China Pharmacopoeia, were determined. In addition, the ITS2 fragments of HH and CH were sequenced. Twenty-three metabolites were identified in the 1H NMR spectrum, and the principal component analysis showed CH and HH could be separated clearly. HH contained more aspartic acid, GABA, citric acid, astragaloside IV and calycosin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside, while CH contained more threonine, alanine, acetic acid, choline, arginine, fructose and sucrose. And the astragaloside IV is almost undetectable in CH. In addition, the ITS2 fragment sequences of HH and CH were different at eight bases. Thus, the HH and CH showed significant differences chemically and genetically.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the leading causes of death in the world. With the improvement of clinical therapy, the mortality of acute MI has been significantly reduced. However, as for the long-term impact of MI on cardiac remodeling and cardiac function, there is no effective prevention and treatment measures. Erythropoietin (EPO), a glycoprotein cytokine essential to hematopoiesis, has anti-apoptotic and pro-angiogenetic effects. Studies have shown that EPO plays a protective role in cardiomyocytes in cardiovascular diseases, such as cardiac ischemia injury and heart failure. EPO has been demonstrated to protect ischemic myocardium and improve MI repair by promoting the activation of cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). This study aimed to investigate whether EPO can promote MI repair by enhancing the activity of stem cell antigen 1 positive stem cells (Sca-1⁺ SCs). Darbepoetin alpha (a long-acting EPO analog, EPO_anlg) was injected into the border zone of MI in adult mice. Infarct size, cardiac remodeling and performance, cardiomyocyte apoptosis and microvessel density were measured. Lin^- Sca-1⁺ SCs were isolated from neonatal and adult mouse hearts by magnetic sorting technology, and were used to identify the colony forming ability and the effect of EPO, respectively. The results showed that, compared to MI alone, EPO_anlg reduced the infarct percentage, cardiomyocyte apoptosis ratio and left ventricular (LV) chamber dilatation, improved cardiac performance, and increased the numbers of coronary microvessels in vivo. In vitro, EPO increased the proliferation, migration and clone formation of Lin^- Sca-1⁺ SCs likely via the EPO receptor and downstream STAT-5/p38 MAPK signaling pathways. These results suggest that EPO participates in the repair process of MI by activating Sca-1⁺ SCs.
