Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of deep needling at Tianshu (ST25) with electroacupuncture in treating post-stroke constipation. Method Forty-eight patients with post-stroke constipation were randomized into an electroacupuncture (EA) group and a medication group, 24 cases in each group. The EA group was intervened by deep needling at Tianshu with EA, while the medication group was by Cong Rong Tong Bian oral liquid. After 1 treatment course, the constipation symptom score was observed and the clinical efficacy was calculated. Result After 1 treatment course, the symptom score, total effective rate, recovery plus markedly-effective rate of the EA group were superior to that of the control group, and the inter-group differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Deep needling at Tianshu with EA can significantly enhance the clinical efficacy in treating post-stroke constipation and improve the quality of life.

Objective This study was to evaluate a new radical resection of hepatic hydatidosis. MethodSince 1999, total subadventitial cystectomy through the intraadventitial space of the hepatic hydatid cyst was performed on thirty patients with 45 liver hydatid cysts. Results The procedure was successful in all cases with no intraoperative rupture of the cysts. The average blood loss per cyst was 20?ml. There was no operative mortality, nor postoperative complications. Twenty one cases were followed up for an average period of 11 months with no recurrence. Conclusions The results indicate that the new procedure is a safe and radical alternative for the treatment of hepatic hydatidosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different ways of fluid resuscitation on uncontrolled traumatic hemorrhagic shock. MethodsThe retrospective analysis of data from 220 casualties with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock admitted from September 2006 to October 2010 was carried out.There were two ways of fluid resuscitation used to treat casualties with hemorrhagic shock,conventional fluid resuscitation (group A) and limited fluid resuscitation (group B).The systolic pressure was maintained at 90 ～ 135 mm Hg in the group A and at 70 ～ 90 mm Hg in the group B.The data of body temperature,central venous pressure,quantity of blood transfused,urine output,renal function,hemoglobin,blood osmotic pressure (Osm) ,MODS and DIC rates,treatment costs and mortality of two groups were statistically analyzed and compared. Results After analyses of above mentioned variables except renal function and comparison made between two groups,the method of limited fluid resuscitation was much superior over conventional fluid resuscitation (P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no noticeable difference in rate of compromised renal function between two groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ). Conclusions In the case of uncontrolled exsanguination,the method of limited fluid resuscitation can maintain blood perfusion of vital organs,reduce the blood loss and decrease the incidence of MODS and mortality.

Objective To investigate the means of different anterior surgical approaches for cervicothoracic vertebral tumors, tumor excision procedure and reconstruction. Methods The clinical manifestation of tumors, different operative approaches, surgical procedures and prognosis of 7 cases admitted in our hospital from March, 1999 to May, 2002 were reported. Results After a follow up of 3 to 28 months, neurological function was improved significantly in all cases. One case with angiosarcoma and 2 cases with metastatic adenocarcinoma (C7, C6 7, T1) died of metastasis in other multiple locations and system failure in 3, 8 and 13 months after surgery respectively. No recurrent tumor focus was found at the operative sites during the follow up period. Conclusion The operative approach, surgical procedure and cervicothoracic spine anterior reconstruction should be selected according to the nature and location of tumors.

Objective To investigate the improved approach and bile duct approach of laparoscopic biliary tract exploration for the treatment of the elderly patients with common bile duct stones. Methods Ninety-two elderly patients with common bile duct stones were enrolled and randomly divided into the improved group and the conventional group ,with 46 cases in each group. The time of hemorrhage ,the time of common bile duct suture,the recovery time of gastrointestinal function,the time of hospitalization,body temperature,albumin and total bilirubin levels,complications and recurrence of stones were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results The time of hemorrhage,the time of common bile duct suture,the recovery time of gastrointestinal func-tion and the time of hospitalization in the improved group were lower than those in the conventional group(P<0.05, respectively). The body temperature of patients in the improved group was lower than that in the conventional group on 3 days after surgery(P<0.05). The overall incidence of postoperative complications in the improved group was lower than that in the conventional group (P < 0.05). No recurrence of stones was observed in both two groups. Conclusion The improved approach for laparoscopic common bile duct exploration surgery results in less bleed-ing,short common bile duct suture time,rapid postoperative recovery,less body temperature fluctuations and less complications,deserving popularization.

Background:Colorectal polyps are common gastrointestinal diseases,which are closely related to the development of colorectal cancer. Aims:To investigate the clinical features of high-risk people with intestinal polyps in colorectal cancer screening. Methods:People in Hongkou District,Shanghai,who were positive in fecal occult blood test or of the high risk category in colorectal cancer questionnaire from April 2013 to December 2014 were enrolled,and colonoscopy was performed at Branch of Shanghai First People’s Hospital. The overall detection rate,gender,age,location of lesion, morphology,and pathology were analyzed. Results:A total of 985 patients with colorectal polyps were recruited in this study. The overall detection rate of polyps was 48. 7% . The prevalence of colorectal polyps was significantly higher in males than in females(58. 7% vs. 38. 9% ;χ2 = 79. 788,P < 0. 01). The detection rates of colorectal polyps in different age groups were statistically significant(χ2 = 23. 820,P < 0. 01). Detection rate of polyps was significantly higher in left colon than in right colon(62. 4% vs. 37. 6% ;χ2 =190. 643,P <0. 01). The overall detection rate of protruding lesion 0-Ⅰwas 94. 5% ,and slightly elevated lesion 0-Ⅱa was 48. 3% . Detection rate of adenomatous pylops was significantly higher than non-adenomatous pylops(59. 3% vs. 47. 1% ;χ2 = 27. 326,P < 0. 01). The histological results were differed between two examination in 119 patients. Only 17. 8% of the patients operated were followed up by colonoscopy,and polyps recurred in 62. 3% of them. Conclusions:A higher incidence of colorectal polyps is found in people with high risk of colorectal cancer screening. High quality colonoscopy examination and effective operation in time can reduce the incidence of colorectal cancer.

Objective To explore the application and value of three-dimensional reconstruction technology in diagnosis and surgical therapy of ground-glass opacity.Methods We analyzed 188 cases with GGO during October 2012 and October 2014 in Shanghai First People’s Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao tong University School of Medicine respectively.Several relative parameters based on three-dimensional reconstruction were selected to differentiate GGO pathology .By ROC curve anal-ysis, optimal cut-off points were determined.Volume-doubling time(VDT) was calculated among 104 cases which had been following up at least for three months and compared among AAH, MIA and IAC.Results Cases’ mean age was 56.66 ± 9.673years(ranged from 27 to 82 years) with 67 males and 121 females.The diameter(P<0.001), total volume(TV)(P<0.001), the maximum CT attenuation(MAX)(P<0.001) and standard deviation of distribution of CT attenuation within the whole GGO(STD)(P=0.015) of malignant group were significant larger than those of benign ones except for average CT at-tenuation(AVG)(P=0.094).The AUC were just 0.64-0.80 when differentiated benign group from AIS, benign group from MIA and AAH from MIA in comparison to 0.70-0.95 when it comes to differentiating benign group and AAH from IAC .Ad-ditionally, the optimal cut-off points were 13.5-15.5 mm in diameter, 400-600 mm3 in TV, -110 -20 Hu in MAX and 120-160 in STD.The mean VDT was 865.00 ±111.33, 464.67 ±44.40 and 238.36 ±76.71 for AAH, MIA and IAC re-spectively(AAH/MIA P<0.001, MIA/IAC P=0.003).Conclusion The diameter, TV, MAX and STD of GGO based on three-dimensional reconstruction could discriminate GGO availably .Combined utilization of HRCT and three-dimensional re-construction has a valuable significance in diagnosis and treatment of GGO .
