Objective To investigate the value of lapa ro scopic surgery in the diagnosis and treatment of bile duct diseases in newborns and infants. Methods Clinical records of 9 newborns or infants with bile duct diseases diagnosed and treated under laparoscope from January 20 03 to August 2004 in this hospital were reviewed retrospectively. Resul ts Laparoscopic exploration in the 9 cases found 2 cases of congenital choledochal cyst, 5 cases of biliary atresia, 1 case of cholestasis, and 1 case of congenital bile duct hypoplasia. Cholangiography was successfully performed i n 8 cases. Two patients with choledochal cyst received an excision of the cyst a nd Roux-en-Y hepatico-jejunostomy. Among the 5 patients with biliary atresia, he patic porto-enterostomy was performed via open approach in 3 patients and via la paroscopic approach in 1, and surgery was refused in 1 patient. Open hepatic por to-enterostomy was also used in the patient with bile duct hypoplasia. The patie nt with cholestasis underwent a biliary tract irrigation. Conclusions Laparoscopy is simple and reliable in the diagnosis of bile duct disease s in newborns and infants. For the treatment of bile duct diseases, laparoscopic techniques have advantages of minimal invasion, good cosmetic results, less blo od loss, quick recovery, and reliable clinical effects.

Objective To explore the feasibility of tw o- port laparoscopy in the treatment of congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Methods A total of 21 infants with confirmatively diagnosed con genital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis were given a two-port laparoscopic pylorom yotomy. The procedure was performed using two trocars: a 5 mm trocar at the lowe r border of the umbilical ring was placed for the insertion of camera, and a 3 m m trocar was introduced below the costal margin at the midclavicular line to pas s the hook electrode and curved forceps. Results No conversion s to open surgery were required. The operation time was 23~65 min (mean, 31.3 mi n). The patients were discharged from hospital at 4~6 postoperative days. No com plications occurred. Follow-up for 2~7 months (mean, 3.2 months) showed a norma l development in all the 21 patients. Conclusions Two-port lap aroscopic treameat for congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in infants is ef fective.

Objective To compare the differences in the use of effects of improved and traditional abdominal positioning locator card in the empty nest elderly diabetic patients with insulin pen injection. Methods 100 discharged cases of empty nest elderly diabetic patients with insulin treated were enrolled. They were divided into two groups by random digital table method, 50 cases in traditional positioning card injection group and 50 cases in improved positioning card injection group. Usage rate of two sets of locator cart, adverse reactions in local skin injection and blood glucose control were observed for 12 months. Results After 12 months, 44 cases occupied 88%in improved positioning card injection group were not about using positioning card while 30 cases occupied 60%in traditional positioning card injection group. The difference was statistical significance (P<0.05). After 12 months, only 3 cases in improved positioning card injection group appeared local injection site reactions which was significantly lower than 31 cases in the traditional positioning card injection group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);12 months later, fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2 hour postprandial blood glucose (2 h PBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c) of improved positioning card injection group and traditional positioning card injection group [(7.0 ±1.5) mmol/L and(7.8±1.9)mmol/L,(10.7±2.1)mmol/L and(12.3±2.2)mmol/L,(7.1±1.3)% and(7.7±1.5)%] were all decreased significantly than before. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). FBG,2 h PBG, HbA1c of improved positioning card injection group were decreased more significantly than that in traditional positioning card injection group and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The standard rate of HbA1c [64% (32/50)] in improved positioning card injection group was higher than that in traditional positioning card injection group [42%(21/50)]. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The modified abdominal injection locator card can improve patients′positioning card usage rate, optimize insulin injection technique, reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions in local skin injection and improve the control of blood glucose.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether aldosterone infusion induces glomerular or podocyte injury in rats and to evaluate the effects of eplerenoen (EPL), andodipine (CCB) and telmisartan (ARB) on aldosterone- induced injury. MethodsThirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 5 groups: control, subcutaneous infusion of aldosterone (1.5 μg/h, ALD group) and aldosterone infusion plus eplerenone (100 mg·kg-1·d-1, EPL group), amlodipine(10 nag·kg-1·d-1 CCB group), telmisartan (3 mg·kg-1·d-1, ARB group), respectively. Systolic blood pressure(SBP) and urinary albumin excretion ratio(UAER) were measured at day 0, 7, 14, 21, 28. Blood samples were harvested to detect plasma angiotensin Ⅱ, plasma aldosterone, serum sodium, serum potassium and serum creatinine at day 28. Glomerular damge was quantified by morphological glomerular injury score (GIS). Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR were performed to evaluate podocyte lesion, and apoptosis ratio of pedocyte (ARP) in a glomerular cross section was analyzed by TUNEL. ResultsALD infusion progressively increased SBP and UAER compared with CTL (P<0.01). SBP was significantly reduced in EPL, CCB or ARB-treated animals, meanwhile, UAER was decreased in EPL and ARB group, but not in CCB group. The ALD-infused rats exibited hypernatremia and hypopotassaemia, which were blocked by EPL adminstration but not by CCB or ARB treatment. ARB group had a significant increase in plasma angiotensin Ⅱ compared with ALD, CCB and EPL groups(P<0.01). The ALD-infused animals developed hyperaldosteronemia compared with CTL, but with no difference of plasma aldosterone among ALD, EPL, CCB and ARB-treated rats. Treatment with EPL prevented an increase of GIS and ARP compared with CCB and ARB (P<0.05, P<0.01). Protein and mRNA expression of nephfin was up-regulated in ALD group (P< 0.01), but was significantly prevented by EPL treatment(P<0.01), whereas CCB and ARB therapy had no such effect. Conclusion ALD infusion significantly induces glomerular and pedocyte injury which is blocked by EPL but not by CCB or ARB independently on systemic hemodynamics.

Objective To evaluate the effect of angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ ) on the change of nephrin phosphorylation both in Ang Ⅱ-infused rat model and cultured podocytes.Methods Thirty Wistar rats were subcutaneously embedded with osmotic minipumps and randomly divided into 3 groups according to receiving either Ang Ⅱ at a dose of 400 ng· kg-1· min-1 or Ang Ⅱ +telmisartan at a dose of 3 mg·kg-1 ·d-1,or normal saline as a control group.Blood pressure and 24-hour urinary albumin were measured at 0 d,7 d,14 d,21 d and 28 d of the experiment.Renal histomorphology was evaluated through electron microscopy.The concentrations of Ang Ⅱ both in blood plasma and kidney were detected by radioimmunoassay.In vitro,cultured murine podocytes were exposed to Ang Ⅱ (10-6 mol/L) pretreated with or without losartan (10-5 mol/L) for different time periods.Nephrin and its phosphorylation expression were analyzed by Western blotting.The distribution of F-actin was presented by FITC-phallodin labeling.The change in phenomenon of F-actin was evaluated by cortical F-actin score index (CFS).Results (1)Ang Ⅱ-infused rats exhibited increased Ang Ⅱ concentration,significant hypertension and marked albuminuria.(2)In Ang Ⅱ-infusion group,nephrin expression was decreased (P<0.05).Ang Ⅱ-receiving rats displayed diminished phosphorylation of nephrin.(3)In vitro,the phosphorylation of nephrin was significantly reduced after Ang Ⅱ stimulation for 3-6 hours (P<0.05).(4)Ang Ⅱ stimulatation resulted in irregularly arrangement of F-actin followed by the redistribution of F-actin to podocyte periphery and formation of F-actin ring,in which the CFS obviously increased compared to control (P<0.05).Conclusions Phosphorylation of nephrin is important for the survival status of podocytes.Ang Ⅱ-induced nephrin dephosphorylation may be an important molecular mechanism for Ang Ⅱ-induced podocyte cytoskeleton rearrangement and foot process effacement.
9.Research progress in genetic abnormalities and etiological factors of congenital anorectal malformation.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2016;19(1):113-117
Congenital anorectal malformation (ARM) is one of the most common gastrointestinal congenital diseases, accounting for 1/4 in digestive tract malformation, and is one of the congenital malformations in routine surveillance by the World Health Organization. Because of the variety of risk factors and the complexity of the pathological changes, etiology of ARM is still not clear. It is mostly considered that ARM is resulted from hereditary factors and environmental factors in the development of embryogenesis. Through animal experiments, scholars have found that Hox, Shh, Fgf, Wnt, Cdx and TCF4, Eph and ephrin play crucial role during the development of digestive tract. When the genes/signaling pathway dysfunction occurs, ARM may happen. In addition, ARM is related to the external factors in pregnancy. Because of the complexity of related factors in the development of human embryogenesis, the research progress of human ARM is very slow. This paper reviews relevant literatures in genetic factors and environmental factors, in order to provide the theoretical basis for the treatment and prevention of ARM.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the incidence of postoperative complications of children with intermediate or high anorectal malformations treated by one-stage modified posterior sagittal anorectoplasty(PSARP) by meta-analysis.
METHODSCases with intermediate or high anorectal malformations treated by one-stage modified PSARP nearly a decade at home and abroad were collected by searching in Wanfang Data, CNKI, and PubMed database, then all the papers that recorded the number of cases of postoperative complications were screened out according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Meta package in RevMan 3.2.5 software was used to perform the meta analysis for rate, and logit conversion method was applied to calculate the merger of the rates. Firstly, heterogeneity inspection was carried out. If the result was P>0.05, it was the homogeneity between the instructions included in the literatures, the fixed effect model was chosen. If the results was P<0.05, the random effect model was chosen. Then rank correlation test was used to estimate the number of research to evaluate publication bias. If P was 0.05 or less, the difference was statistically significant.
RESULTSThirteen related articles were selected and added up to 566 cases with intermediate or high anorectal malformations treated by one-stage modified PSARP. The merged rate of the complications was 28%(95%CI: 19% to 40%). The three highest rate of complications were 8%(95%CI:4% ~ 14%) of corrupt dung, 7%(95%CI:5% ~11%)of fecal incontinence and 5%(95%CI:3% ~ 10%) of rectal mucosa prolapse.
CONCLUSIONThe most common postoperative complications of children with intermediate or high anorectal malformations treated by one-stage modified PSARP are rectal corrupt dung and fecal incontinence.
