Objective To observe the effect of electronic colonoscopy on heart rate,blood pressure,arterial hemoglobin oxygen saturation and electrocardiography in elderly patients.Methods 60 patients were divided into two groups,elderly group (over 60 years old,n=30) and non-elderly group (＜ 60 years old,n =30).The changes in heart rate,blood pressure,arterial hemoglobin oxygen saturation and electrocardiography before and during colonoscopy were compared between the two groups.The increased heart rate was observed in both groups(the non-elderly group:t=10.746,P＜0.001; the elderly group:t=4.892,P＜0.001),and the increment of heart rate was higher in non-elderly group than in elderly group [(6.9±3.7) /min vs.(4.0±3.8) /min,t=2.88,P＜ 0.01].Results Systolic and diastolic pressures were increased in both groups during colonoscopy as compared with pre-colonoscopy(t=3.88,5.88,6.55 and 7.43,respectively,P＜0.01 or 0.001),but there were no significant differences in the increment between the two groups(t=0.31 and 0.32,bothP＞0.05).Arterial hemoglobin oxygen saturation was decreased in both groups during colonoscopy as compared with pre-colonoscopy(t=3.05 and 2.98,P＜0.05 or 0.01),and there was no significant difference in the decrease between the two groups(t=-0.13,P＞0.05).Abnormal ECG can be detected in both groups,but had no statistical significance between the two groups (20.0％ vs.16.7％,x2 =0.11,P＞ 0.05).Conclusions Electronic colonoscopy can be performed relatively safely in the elderly.

Objective To summarize the laboratory, pathologic and imaging characteristics of patients with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) retrospectively for early diagnosis and treatment. Methods Eleven AIP patients were selected in our hospital from 2007 to 2009. Laboratory parameters including complete blood count, tumor markers, hemodiastase and autoantibodies were tested. Abdominal ultrasonography and computerized tomography (CT) scanning were also performed. Results Five patients had elevated hemodiastase and liver enzymes, four patients had hyperbilirubinemia and three patients had hyperglobulinemia. Increased serum CA199 levels (mean 78.4 U/ml) were found in six patients. All of the 11 patients had enlarged pancreas on imaging. Four cases were treated with three months of drug therapy. After the treatment, the pancreas volumereturned to normal size, pancreatic duct and bile duct became normal in size. Seven cases received surgical operation. Pathology examination showed fibrous tissue and folliculus lymphaticus formation in the pancreas,with a large number of lymphocytes and plasma cells infiltration. Two of seven cases were diagnosed with Sj(o)gren's syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis after being followed-up for six to twelve months post-operation.Their symptoms relieved after corticosteroid and immunosuppressive therapy. Conclusion AIP is a special type of chronic pancreatitiswith characteristic laboratory, imaging and histological features. Glucocorticoid and immunosuppressive agents therapy are effective for AIP.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of abdominal Tuina and acupuncture in treating Swiss generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Methods 80 patients of GAD caused by liver depression-qi stagnation were randomly recruited into a treatment group and a control group, 40 patients in each. The treatment group was treated with abdominal tuina & acupuncture; while the control group was treated with acupuncture exclusively. Clinical effects and hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA) score were observed in both groups before and after the treatment. Results ①There was significant difference in total efficacy between the two groups CP<0.05), and the treatment group was better than the control group. ②The HAMA score of the two groups after the treatment was lower than that before the treatment, and the difference was significant (P< 0.05). There was also significant difference of HAMA score between the two groups after the treatment (/><0.05), with the treatment group showing better results than the control group. Conclusion Abdominal tuina combined with acupuncture has sound effects in treating Swiss GAD due to liver depression-qi stagnation.

Objective To explore the clinical features of diabetic macular edema (DME) with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and correlation with visual function. Methods Forty-nine eyes from 40 patients with DME (DME group) and 31 eyes from 31 patients without DME (control group) were examined with OCT,pattern reversal visual evoked potentials (P-VEP),macular perimetry. According to proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), 49 eyes with DME were divided into group A (without PDR, 30eyes) and group B (with PDR, 19 eyes). Results The retinal macular thickness of central fovea in DME group [(299.25±63.87)μm] was more than that in contol group [(204.35 ± 37.94)μm], visual acuity and macular visual field in DME group were significantly different than those in control group, respectively (P ＜ 0.05). The retinal macular thickness of central fovea,visual acuity and visual field were no significant differences between group A and group B (P＞0.05). OCT macular thickness and visual correlation coefficient was -0.437(P＜ 0.05 ); OCT macular thickness and mean defect correlation coefficient was 0.441(P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions OCT can provide a useful tool for monitoring the occurrence and development of DME, can assess the response to treatment. With increasing of the macular retinal thickness, the visual acuity and macular visual field of visual function are more damaged.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of selective salpinography(SSG)and fallopian tube recanalization(FTR). Methods 215 patients with Infertilis Feminis were performed with hysterosalpinoraphy(HSG)SSG and FRT. Anti-infection and physical therapy were then undertaken postoperatively. Results The successful rates of properly performed catheterization and recanalization reached 92.8% and 90.2%, respectively. During the follow-up of six years, 98 cases(51.3%)obtained the ability of intrauterine pregnancy. Conclusions HSG and FTR are simple, reliable, symptomless, very effective for treatment of ovarian tube infertility.

0.05). The mainly side-effects were myelosuppression, nausea, and vomiting. Conclusions:Docetaxel/cisplatin and gemcitabine/cisplatin regimens were well toleranced in advanced NSCLC patients with long term survival.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Caspofunjin on invasive fungal infections in patients refractory to Fluconazole in ICU.Methods The open clinical trial was conducted in 44 invasive fungal infections patients who was refractory to Fluconazole,including 7 cases of confirmed,28 cases of suspected and 9 cases for empire treatment.They were treated with Caspofunjin in a dose of 70 mg in the first day,and then in a dose of 50 mg/d for 10～40 d.Results The cure rate of patients was 42.86%,the effective rate was 76.19%,and the eradication rate was 65.22%.All patients were well tolerated.Conclusion Caspofunjin is effective and safe in the treatment of severe invasive fungal infections.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate (PKRP) and transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods Two groups of BPH patients (78 patients in each group) were treated by PKRP and TURP,respectively. The clinical efficacy and safety indices were reviewed and compared for both intra- and inter-groups. Results In PKRP group,the operative time,intraoperative bleeding, the rates of postoperative temporary urinary incontinence (within 2 months) ,secondary hemorrhage (within 4 weeks),and urethral stricture (within 3 months) were ( 64?21) min, ( 247?84) ml, 26. 9% ( 21/78 ) , 1. 3% ( 1/78 ) and 2.6% (2/78) ,respectively; while in TURP group, these parameters were (78?18) min, (432?132) ml, 48.7% (38/78) , 10. 3% (8/78) and 12. 8% ( 10/78 ), respectively; there were significant differences between the 2 groups (P 0. 05). Conclusions PKRP and TURP have similar efficacy in the treatment of BPH,but PKRP is safer than TURP. Thus,PKRP is a better treatment option for BPH.
