Objective To investigate the efficacy of prophylactic pancreatic stent placement and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs( NSAIDs) for the prevention of post?endoscopic retrograde cholangiopan?creatography(ERCP) pancreatitis(PEP). Methods A total of 623 patients with high risk factors for PEP were treated with prophylactic pancreatic stent placement ( 145 patients, group A) or rectal NSAIDs( 478 pa?tients, group B) for PEP prevention by using the propensity score matching( PSM) analysis. Incidence of PEP, moderate and severe PEP were investigated. According to risk factors of PEP, indications of prophy?lactic pancreatic stent placement were analysed. Results Of 623 patients with high risk factors, 145 pairs were generated after PSM.Pancreatitis occurred in 32 patients,10 (6?9%) in group A and 22 (15?2%) in group B( P<0?05 ) . Moderate?to?severe pancreatitis developed in 5 ( 3?4%) patients in group A and 14 (9?7%) patients in group B(P<0?05).Risk factors of post?ERCP PEP were cannulation attempts duration longer than 10 minutes, precut sphincterotomy, more than one pancreatic guidewire passages and history of ampullectomy. Conclusion Although the NSAIDs represent an easy, inexpensive treatment, prophylactic pancreatic stent placement is still a better prevention strategy for PEP.Prophylactic pancreatic stents should be recommended to those with risk factors including cannulation attempts duration longer than 10 minutes, precut sphincterotomy, more than one pancreatic guidewire passages and ampullectomy.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of annular electrode lacrimal duct reconstruction in improving the safety and efficacy of nasolacrimal duct stent implantation for treatment of nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
METHODSThis randomized clinical trial was performed to compare the efficacy, success rate of intubation, time used for stent implantation, intraoperative pain, and extubation-assciated complications between nasolacrimal stent implantation with and without annular electrode lacrimal duct reconstruction.
RESULTSA total of 119 eligible patients were enrolled in this trial. The total curative rate at 6 months of follow up after extubation was 70.9% (83/117) in these patients, and was significnatly higher in pateinets with lacrimal duct reconstruction than in those without [80.6% (54/67) vs 58.0% (29/50); χ(2)=7.093, P<0.05]. The total success rate of stent implantation was 98.3% (117/119) in all the patients initially enrolled, and two patients experienced failure of stent implantation and were excluded; the success rate was signfiicantly higher in patients initially enrolled in the lacrimal duct reconstruction group (χ(2)=6.282, P<0.05). The median time required for intubation was shorter in lacrimal duct reconstruction group (12 s vs 33 s; Z=-36.722, P<0.05). The intendity of intraoperative pain was comparable between the two groups (t=0.833, P=0.405). The total rate of puncta injury was 43.6% (51/117) in these patients and similar between the two groups (χ(2)=1.459, P=0.227). The total rate of extubation difficulty was 9.4% (11/117) in all the patients, and was lower in lacrimal duct reconstruction group [4.5% (3/67) vs 16% (8/50); χ(2)=4.463, P<0.05]. Stent breakage in extubation occurred in 4.3% (11/117) of the patients with similar rates between the two groups (χ(2)=2.964, P=0.085). Spearman bivariate correlation analysis showed that the time required for intubation was inversely correlated with the treatment efficacy (r=-0.584, P<0.05) and positively with the occurrence of extubation difficulty (r=0.491, P<0.05); extubation difficulty was inversely correlated with the curative effect (r=-0.511, P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONAnnular electrode nasolacrimal duct reconstruction can increase the safety and efficacy of nasolacrimal duct stent implantation for treatment of nasolacrimal duct obstruction.

Objective Adhesion or too highly located folds upper eyelid and even hlepharoptosis are common complications after double eyelid operation. The method was designed to correct these de-formities. Methods The incision of upper eyelid was designed under the scar. Skin was resected between the former and the new double line, if there was excessive skin. Completely relieve the adhesion until nor-mal tissue was exposed. Expose lateral extension of retro-orbicularis oculi fat pad. An upper pedicle fat flap was formed after cutting tissues off along bilateral borders. Appropriately and transversely cutting lateral portion of the pedicle made it rotate inside downward with enough blood supply. The fat flap was fixed with released orbital fat and the lower edge of fat flat fixed with upper border of supratarsal to restorate the volume. For severe condition, fat granule injection could be used after the skin was sutured. Results 42 cases (80 eyes) were treated in the past two years. The deformities of 32 cases were corrected by the application of retro-orbicularis oculi fat pad. Fat granule injection was applied for the other 10 pa-tients meanwhile. 30 cases (60 eyes) were followed up for 6 to 24 months. The results were satisfactory. Conclusion The methods are performed easily and the results are satisfied. It is worth of recommenda-tion.

Objective:To explore the etiology, clinical diagnosis and treatment strategy of Lesch Nyhan syndrome.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 2 patients with severe dyskinesia, mental retardation and complicated renal calculi who were admitted to the first people's Hospital of Zhengzhou in August 2019. Case 1, male, 9 years old, had multiple urinary calculi for 1 year. The patient came to the local hospital because double multiple kidney stones and bladder stonesa year ago. The patient had been treated with transurethral holmium laser lithotripsy for bladder stones. The results of infrared spectrum showed that the bladder stone was anhydrous uric acid stone. A week ago, color Doppler ultrasound showed multiple kidney stones and bladder stones. The patient was underdeveloped, mentally retarded and had a full-term cesarean section. There was no history of hypoxia, asphyxia and rescue of the patient. He had the following clinical manifestations: In the waking state, he was no language response to any stimulation. The nasolabial fold on the right was shallow and the corner of the mouth was oblique to the left. He lost the large movements such as lifting head, sitting alone, standing. The trunk showed torsion spasticity, limb muscle strength 2-3, limbs showing spastic hypertonia, limb joints stiff, hands showing fist-like, no involuntary movement and muscle fasciculation. The biceps reflex and knee tendon reflex were not elicited, and the pathological reflex was positive. Serum uric acid was 517 μmol/L. The Case 2 came from the same family, male, 6 years old, had the similar symptoms to his elder brother case 1. The family members complained on behalf of the child about intermittent fever for more than 2 years. The imaging examination of case 2 revealed kidney stones. Serum uric acid was 373 μmol/L. Whole Exome Sequencing and Sanger Sequencing were used to find the genetic causes of the two siblings. The NCBI-Homologene database was used to find the homologous sequence of the human HPRT1 gene, and the human HPRT1 gene sequence was compared with other species to analyze the protein conservation. The online website PredictProtein (http: //www.predactprotein) was used to predict the two-dimensional structure of the HPRT1 gene. The reported cases were summarized and same with the treatment plan.Results:A De novo mutation [c.571T>G(p.Tyr191Asp)] was found in the HPRT1 gene of the child, which was inherited from the mother. Lesch Nyhan syndrome can be diagnosed by the results of gene examination combined with clinical manifestations. The amino acid Tyr at the 191 position and the amino acids before and after it were highly conserved. Amino acid 191 was involved in the β-strand of the protein. We treated the patients with the lowest dose of allopurinol and children's conventional dose of potassium sodium bicitrate granules, and low purine diet. After 3 months of treatment, the serum uric acid was decreased, and the urinary calculi did not increase significantly.Conclusions:Combining with the clinical manifestations of children, HPRT1 gene might be the cause of pediatric disease and the two siblings could be diagnosed as Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. For such patients, the lowest dose of allopurinol and children's conventional dose of potassium sodium hydrogen citrate granule combined with diet could be more effective.
