BACKGROUND: There have been some prospective, randomized, controlled studies regarding the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer, but controversy exists.OBJECTIVE: To systemically assess the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer.METHODS: A computer-based online research of prospective, randomized, controlled studies addressing laparoscopic gastrectomy versus open gastrectomy published between January 1994 and December 2009 was performed in PubMed, Ovid Medline, Web of Knowledge, EMbase, Chinese Journal Full-text Database and Wanfang Database. Meta analysis of acquired data was performed through the use of RevMan 5.0 software. The inverse variance method was used to test the significance of continous data, while the Mantel-Haenszel method was used for dichotomous data. The chi-square test was used for evaluation of data heterogeneity. Homogenous data was calculated using the fixed effect model, and heterogeneous data was calculated using freedom model. Statistical data was expressed as 95% confidence interval. Funnel plot was used for sensitivity analysis to show potential publication bias.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Five papers that corresponded to inclusion criteria were included in this study. Among 326 cases included, 164 underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy and 162 received open gastrectomy. Meta analysis revealed that laparoscopic gastrectomy took longer operating time and removed fewer lymph nodes than open gastrectomy (both P < 0.01), but for early-stage gastric cancer, laparoscopic gastrectomy was superior to open gastrectomy in terms of blood loss and hospital stay (P < 0.01). But there was no significant difference in terms of time to resumption of oral intake, postoperative complications,postoperative morbidity rate, and tumor recurrence. Sensitive analysis demonstrated that publication bias existed in all indices to different extents with the exception of lymph node. The five papers adopted two different modes to remove lymph nodes, so subgroup analysis was also used. Results showed that for D1 lymph node dissection, laparoscopic gastrectomy took significantly reduced blood loss than open gastrectomy. All these findings indicate that laparoscopic gastrectomy for early stage gastric cancer is feasible and safe.

The paper describes the short and medium term (within 2 to 5 years) priorities that any region in China right now faces in working out and implementing its regional health planning, viz. the coordinated development strategy of medicine and health, medical security and social economy. The authors hold that to achieve the coordinated growth of the health cause and society, it is imperative to overcome in the short run logically related obstacles in four aspects: ineffective solution to the apparent problems followed with interest by both the social and health sectors and lack of effective operating conditions accompanying medical insurance reform, both resulting in the lack of a driving force in the reform within hospitals; difficulty in achieving breakthroughts in the development of the health cause; and the probability of a regional health planning becoming a mere formality because of the above factors. In addition, the fact that reform of medical and health institutions in their setup and ownership of property rights lags behind macroscopic social economic reform obscures the explanation of and solution to the above problems. Based on the research results, the paper sets forth the priorities in short and medium term planning.

Objective To investigate the main technical points of detachable balloon in management of traumatic carotid-cavernous fistulas (TCCF) and evaluate objectively the clinical outcome.Methods A total of 59 patients with TCCF were treated with detachable balloons,which involved 64 embolization procedures.Follow-up ranged from 3 months to 2 years. Results Forty-eight patients with TCCF (81%) were successfully occluded with patency of internal carotid artery.The rest 11 patients were obstructed in both the fistula and the internal carotid artery.Recurrent TCCF was found within three days after embolization in five patients (with a recurrence rate of 8% ) who underwent further embolization,of whom one patient went blind after the procedtre and the eyesight showed no recovery even after another embolization with balloon for successful occlusion of the fistula; one patient presented with intracerebral hematoma at day 3 postoperatively and underwent emergency embolization again to occlude the internal carotid artery and fistula,with slight paralysis of the left limb. Conclusions Embolization of TCCF with detachable balloon is a reliable treatment,which is characterized by slight injury and high safety.However,the disease' s development should be strictly observed after the treatment.In the case of recurrence of symptoms,brain angiography and CT scanning should be rechecked timely and emergency treatment should be performed.

BACKGROUND:Existing evidence has shown that xenogeneic bone derived graft materials have the ability to repair bone defects, but little report is on the comparison of composition of xenogeneic bone and human bone.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the chemical composition, mineral phase, calcium and phosphorus contents, total protein contents, and appearance of the cancel ous bones of the tibia from pig, bovine and human.
METHODS:Cancel ous bones of the tibia from pig, Banna miniature pig, bovine, young and old people were cut into bone particles of 0.5 cm×0.5 cm×0.5 cm. After degreasing or drying treatment, chemical composition, mineral phase, calcium and phosphorus contents, total protein contents of bone particles were detected using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, plasma emission spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Kjeldahl method, respectively. Nano Measurer 1.2 and Photoshop cs6 were used to measure pore diameter and porosity rate based on the results of scanning electron microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The main inorganic phase of five kinds of cancel ous bones was hydroxyapatite and the main chemical composition was phosphate and carbonate. The calcium content of the bovine cancel ous bonewas lower than that of the other cancel ous bones (P<0.05) and the phosphorus content of the cacel ous bone of young man was higher than that of the pig and bovine cancel ous bones (P<0.01). The total protein content in the cancel ous bones of normal pig and Banna miniature pig was higher than that in the other three kinds of cancel ous bones (P<0.05). The pore diameter of five kinds of cancel ous bones was 400 to 600μm and the porosity rate was 60%to 70%. Moreover, the porosity rate of the bovine cancel ous bone was the highest. Therefore, we conclude that there are some certain differences in the organic and inorganic components of the pig or bovine cancel ous bones as compared with humans.
