To study the effect of vascular proliferation and reconstruction in chronic hepatitis B (CHB), immunohistochemical staining and in situ hybridization were used. The expression of transforming growth factor (TGF-?1) and smooth muscle actin (?-SMA) in livers of CHB were observed. The results showed that TGF-?1 and ?-SMA were related with degeneration of hepatocytes, intrahepatic vascular fibrosis and hepatic sinusoidal capillarization. The expression degree and range of TGF-?1 and ?-SMA increased with the exacerbation of liver lesion. These results suggest that vascular proliferation and reconstruction may play important roles during the process of CHB.

Objective To explore the feasibility of laparoscopic subtotal colectomy on the basis of lesion identification with the combined use of laparoscopy and fibrocolonoscopy.Methods The operation was carried out under general anesthesia.The patients were maintained at a supine position.Four 10 mm trocars were introduced at the upper and lower borders of the umbilicus,and the left and right lower quadrants of the abdomen,respectively,and a 5 mm trocar was introduced at the right upper quadrant of the abdomen.The laparoscope was placed at the hypogastrium when performing right hemicolectomy,and at the left lower abdomen when left hemicolectomy.During the operation,a fibrocolonoscope was inserted by way of the severed end of the right colon for lesion identification.The colon was disconnected from the cecum to the sigmoid colon.Then the incision at the left lower abdomen was extended to 4 cm in length,and an extracorporeal ileosigmoidostomy was conducted. Results Pathologic changes of thickening and hardening intestinal walls were clearly observed under laparoscope.Fibrocolonoscopic examinations revealed that the false polyps and ulcers on the colonic mucosa had involved the descending colon and the part of the sigmoid colon.The operation time was 170 min and 190 min,respectively,and the intraoperative blood loss was 150 ml and 200 ml,respectively.Pathological examinations after the operation verified the presence of intestinal tuberculosis.No short-term complications occurred after the operation.The frequency of defecation was 5~6 times daily at short-term postoperative period and 1~2 times daily at 5~6 months after the operation.The patients' body weight increased by 2.5 kg and 4 kg,respectively. Conclusions Combined use of laparoscopy and fibrocolonoscopy can accurately evaluate the affected extent of the lesion.Laparoscopic subtotal colectomy is safe and feasible.

Objective To study the shape differences of upper epidermal cells in leaves of medicinal plants of Swertia L. and establish the new method for identifying them. Methods The epidermis were mounted in ordinary technique, and then scanned and binarized through HPIAS-1000 image analytic system. The waveness of the anticlinal walls (SFC) and the ratio of the Ferets diameter (SLF) of upper epidermal cells were detected. The leaf epidermal cells of 21 kinds of raw materials in 12 plants of Swertia L. from various regions were examined. Results The precision and reproducibility of software system were good, and the shape characters of the upper epidermal cells of the middle lamina in the third node arising from ground are the stablest inside the same species by the magnification 20?10 under microscope. The SFC and SLF of the upper epidermal cells of the same species of plants are relatively constant, conversely that of different species of plants are obviously different and distinguishable from each other. Conclusion The proposed method is a useful technique for identifying traditional Chinese medicinal materials originated from herbs and leaves of plants. HPIAS-1000 is simple, rapid, accurate, and practical for shape analysis of upper epidermal cells of plant leaf.

Objective:To perform textual researches on name, origin and distribution of Maidong to clarify the medicinal varieties and history recorded in ancient literatures and provide evidence for clinical use. Methods:Ancient herbal works were performed textual research, and the resource investigation and modern data were analyzed. Results:According to the ancient herbal records and modern researches, Maidong had lots of alias, while only Maimendong and Maidong were used as the medicine common names. According to the records of main origin, original plant morphological and medicinal characteristics of Maimendong, it was preliminarily concluded that Maidong recorded in the ancient herbal records was mainly produced in Jiande of Zhejiang province, Mianyang of Sichuan prov-ince, Xiangyang of Hubei province and the surrounding areas. The chemical compositions and pharmacological activities of Maidong and Shanmaidong were similar;therefore, they both could be used as the medicines. Conclusion:In the light of the ancient and mod-ern medicinal customs, modern chemistry and pharmacology researches and clinical practice of TCM, it deserves further discussion on whether Maidong and Shanmaidong can be used as multi source varieties of traditional Chinese medicines just like Polygonaceae plants palmatum L. , Rheum tanguticum Maxim, ex Balf. and Rheum officinale Baill. , and Ranunculaceae plants Coptis chinensis Franch. , Coptis deltoidea C.
