The da Vinci robotic surgical system has the advantages of three-dimensional vision and high degree of accuracy,flexibility and repeatability,which makes surgical procedures such as digestive tract anastomosis easier to conduct under minimally invasive conditions.In this article,the feasibility and principle of digestive tract anastomosis and the procedures of pancreaticojejunostomy and pancreaticogastrostomy by the da Vinci robotic surgical system are introduced,so as to improve the quality of anastomosis and reduce the incidences of postoperative complications.Compared with traditional laparotomy,da Vinci robotic surgical system simplified the surgical procedures and reduced the trauma,which is suitable for digestive tract anastomosis in pancreatic surgery.The method of pancreatic anastomosis should be selected in consideration of the condition of patients,surgical procedure and the experience of surgeons.

Objective To analyze the regulation of NEF3 expression in SH - SY5Y after RA induction. Methods The expression of NEF3 and Brg1 genes was individually detected by realtime RT - PCR and Western blot analyses. Then, the CAT reporter driven by 5' flanking region ofNEF3 gene (pBLCAT3 -2. 8k - NEF3) was co - transfccted with eukaryotic expression plasmids of pBJ5 - Brgl or pBJ5 - Brg1 - NTP into SH - SY5Y respectively. Promoter activity of the NEF3 gene was detected by competitive RT - PCR assay. Results Similar changes in the mRNA expression of NEF3 and Brg1 and that of the protein expression of Brgl were detected in Sh - SY5Y cells af-ter RA treatment for 12 -24h. Wild type Brgl can promote the expression of pBLCAT3 -2.8k -NEF3 promoter after RA induction, but not mutant Brg1. Conclusion Brgl helpes regulating the expression of NEF3 gene possibly via changes in chromatin conformation in the SH -SY5Y cells after RA induction.

An 82-year-old Chinese woman presented with skin eruptions on the thigh and abdomen accompanied by intermittent fever of unknown origin for more than 2 months.No hepatosplenomegaly,lymphadenopathy or neurological abnormality was found with physical examination.There were irregular,tender,indurated,dark-erythematous plaques on bilateral thigh and lower abdomen.along with nonpitting edema and peau d'orange appearance.A significant decrease was observed in the count of white blood cells,red blood cells and platelets,but the serum level of lactate dehydrogenase was elevated.Tumor aspiration and the first pathology yielded no confirmed diagnosis,and the patient had ever been diagnosed with chronic lymphangitis,allergic cutaneous vasculitis and fever of unknown origin in other hospitals.Antibiotic therapy leaded to no improvement,and the lesions gradually spread from the migh to lower abdomen.The second histopathology revealed the presence of atypical lymphoid cells with hyperchromatic nuclei and irregular morphology in the lumens of small blood vessels in subcutaneous tissue.Immunohistochemically,the atypical lymphoid cells were positive for lymphocytotoxic antibody (LCA),CD20,CD790t and bcl-2,but negative for bcl-6,CD10,CD3,CD45RO,CD30,EMA,AEI/3 or CK and vascular endothelial cells were positive for CD34.The diagnosis of intravascular large B-cell lymphoma was made based on the hisstopathological features and immunohistochemical findings.The patient died in two months.

Objective To measure the levels of plasma D-dimer,activated coagulation factor Ⅶ (FⅦa) and activated clotting factor Ⅻ (FⅫa) in patients with chronic urticaria (CU),and to investigate their relationship with the occurrence of CU.Methods Venous blood samples were collected from 50 patients with CU and 50 healthy human controls.Dry-column immune scattering chromatography was performed to detect the plasma level of D-dimer,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to measure the levels of FⅦa and FⅫa.In addition,autologous plasma skin test (APST) was conducted in 43 patients with CU,and autologous serum skin test (ASST) in 41 patients with CU.A correlation analysis was carried out between the above three parameters and disease severity as well as between the results of APST and ASST and plasma level of D-dimer.Results The levels of plasma D-dimer and F Ⅶa were significantly higher in patients with CU than in healthy human controls (both P ＜ 0.05),while no significant difference was found in FⅫa level between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Moreover,the degree of increase in D-dimer plasma level was positively correlated with disease severity in the patients with CU.The plasma level of D-dimer was significantly higher in APST-positive patients than in APST-negative patients (P ＜ 0.05),but not significantly different between ASST-positive and-negative patients (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Coagulation mechanism,especially the extrinsic coagulation pathway,is related to the occurrence of CU.Studies on coagulation mechanism are beneficial to the evaluation of severity,and clinical treatment,of CU.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effects of intradermal needling for pain and tear film stability in patients after pterygium excision. METHODS: A total of 76 patients (98 affected eyes) with primary pterygium were randomly divided into an observation group (38 cases, 53 affected eyes) and a control group (38 cases, 45 affected eyes).In the control group, only pterygium resection was performed, in the observation group, intradermal needling after pterygium resection was applied at Cuanzhu (BL 2), Yuyao (EX-HN 4), Taiyang (EX-HN 5), Sibai (ST 2), Hegu (LI 4), removed after 24 h and changed three times a week. The pain level of 3 days after surgery, dry eye symptoms, the basic tear secretion test (Schirmer-Ⅰ), and the tear-break time (BUT) changes before surgery, 2 weeks after surgery and 4 weeks after surgery were compared between the two groups, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated. RESULTS: The pain level of 3 days after surgery in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (<0.05). The dry eye symptom scores at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after surgery in the two groups were significantly lower than those before surgery (all <0.05), and the dry eye symptom scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both <0.05). The Schirmer-Ⅰ test at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after surgery was significantly prolonged than that before surgery(all <0.05), and the Schirmer-Ⅰ test in the observation group was significantly longer than that in the control group (both <0.05). The BUT at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after surgery in the two groups was significantly longer than that before surgery (all <0.05), and the BUT in the observation group was significantly longer than that in the control group (both <0.05). The total effective rate in the observation group was 89.5% (34/38), which was higher than 71.1% (27/38) in the control group (<0.05). CONCLUSION Intradermal needling can effectively reduce the pain level of patients after pterygium resection, improve dry eye symptoms, promote the secretion of tears and improve the tear film stability.

Purpose To study the status of EGFR mutations and the expression of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 ( ER-CC1) and Ki-67 protein in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to examine the relationship between their expression and clinicopathologic features. Methods EGFR mutations were analyzed with DNA sequencing, and the expression of ERCC1 and Ki-67 protein was examined by immunohistochemistry EnVision. The relationship of EGFR mutations with the expression of ERCC1and Ki-67 and the clinicopathological features were analyzed. Results EGFR mutations were detected in 143 (143/291, 49. 1%) of the 291 specimens. EGFR mutations were found more frequently in women, non-smokers and adenocarcinoma. The difference of EGFR muta-tion rate between the histological subtypes according to the IASLC/ATS/ERS classification of lung adenocarcinoma was significantly ( P=0. 008). The mean tumor diameter was smaller in patients with EGFR mutations than in those with wild-type EGFR (P=0. 020). EGFR mutations were not related to age, lymph node metastasis. However, EGFR mutations were not related to the expression of ER-CC1 and Ki-67 protein (P>0. 050). Conclusions EGFR mutation is closely linked to several clinicopathological factors, such as gender, differentiation, and histological subtype. There is heterogeneity of EGFR mutation in patients with NSCLC. EGFR mutations were not related to the expression of ERCC1 and Ki-67 protein.
