AIM: To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of phacoemulsification and small incision non -phacoemulsification cataract surgery, and provide better options for clinical cataract treatment.
METHODS: According to the different operation methods, 98 cases of simple senile cataract patients in our hospital were divided into control group and treatment group, 49 cases in each. The control group received ultrasonic emulsification operation treatment; treatment group were treated by small incision non -phacoemulsification. Visual acuity, astigmatism values, average operation time, and complications were compared between two groups before and after operation.
RESULTS: There was no significant difference in preoperative corneal astigmatism values of two groups at 3mo between two groups (P>0. 05). On other times, vision and corneal astigmatism were obviously better than those before operation (P<0. 05). The average vision, corneal astigmatism values and complications incidence of two group at operation time and different postoperative time had no statistical difference (P>0. 05). When the lens nucleus hardness was at Ⅰ~Ⅲ level, corneal endothelial cell count of two groups had no significant difference ( P>0.05). When the lens nucleus hardness was at Ⅳ ~ Ⅴlevel, there was statistical difference (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Small incision non-phacoemulsification cataract surgery has the similarly efficacy compared with phacoemulsification. It should be based on the actual situation of the hardness of nuclear to select the appropriate surgical treatment.

OBJECTIVETo report a case of simple congenital bilateral ejaculatory duct absence (EDA) complicated with seminal vesicle cyst and review the relevant literature in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
METHODSWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of a case of bilateral congenital EDA complicated with seminal vesicle cyst, reviewed the relevant literature at home and abroad, and comprehensively analyzed the embryonic development, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital EDA.
RESULTSThe patient was a 23-year-old man, present at the clinic for infertility after married for a year. Vasography and other imaging examinations confirmed simple congenital bilateral EDA complicated with seminal vesicle cyst. Pathologic biopsy showed normal spermatogenic function of the testes.
CONCLUSIONCongenital EDA originates from embryonic developmental defect of the mesonephric duct, and it can be confirmed by vasography. Transurethral incision of the ejaculatory duct and intracytoplasmic sperm injection can be employed for the treatment of bilateral EDA.

Objective To investigate the application value of urine excrement shunt surgery for the treatment of severe metabolic disorders after Sigma rectum pouch of bladder cancer.Methods From July 2011 to December 2013,4 male patients (mean age 72±10 years old,ranged from 58-82 years old),who received radical cystectomy and Sigma rectum pouch due to bladder cancer,were admitted in our hospital.Within four years after the operation,all patients complained about the recurrent fatigue,anorexia and even unconsciousness.The hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis,hypokalemia and renal dysfunction were diagnosed by blood gas analysis and biochemical tests.One week before urine excrement shunt operation,the arterial blood pH,HCO3-,serum potassium,chloride and creatinine were (7.15±0.08),(7.8±4.7)mmol/L,(3.1 ±0.2) mmol/L,(110.3±4.7) mmol/L,(314.8±66.4) μmol/L,respectively.They received urine excrement shunt surgery.The lower abdominal mid-line incision was made and the pouch was isolated from intestinal tract.The abdomen ostomy was made and the sigmoid colon and rectum were re-coincided in order to recover the intestinal continuity.The results of blood gas analysis,electrolytes and renal function after surgery were compared with those before surgery.Results The average operation time was (256.3±26.9) min and the mean volume of bleeding was (147.5±111.2) ml.There was no surgery related complication.Blood bicarbonate was (19.1±4.8) mmol/L one week after surgery,which was significantly improved than that before operation (P<0.05).One month later,blood pH level descended to (7.38±0.05),potassium level was (3.9±0.3) mmol/L,creatinine was (208.8±50.8) umol/L.All of them were significantly improved,compared with those results before surgery (P<0.05).Blood chloride was significantly reduced to (102.4±5.8) mmol/L (P<0.05) after 6 months of operation.Nobody developed severe acidosis and electrolyte disturbances during 6 months to 3 years' follow-up.Conclusions Urine excrement shunt surgery can effectively corrected the acidosis and electrolyte disturbances due to the radical cystectomy and Sigma rectum pouch.It might be a alternative method to treat such kind of severe complications.

In ischemic hypertrophic myocardium, contractile dysfunction can be attributed to the decreased calcium induced calcium release (CICR) in cytoplasm. This study aimed to investigate the electrophysiological properties and the expression of L calcium channel subunits in post-MI myocardium. The ischemic heart remodeling model was established in SD rats. The expressions of calcium channel subunits were determined by realtime RT-PCR. Whole cell patch clamp was used to record the electrophysiological properties of L calcium channel. The results showed that the L calcium channel agonist Bayk 8644 induced the significantly decreased CICR in the rat cardiomyocyte 6 weeks after myocardial infarction (MI). In the post-MI cardiomyocytes, the amplitude of I(CaL) decreased dramatically and the inactivation curve of the current shifted to more negative potential. At mRNA level, the expression of the calcium channel alpha1c, beta2c subunits decreased dramatically in the ventricle of post-MI rats. The expression of alpha2/delta subunit, however, remained constant. It is concluded that the abnormal expression of the L calcium channel subunits in post-MI cardiomyocytes contributes to the ICaL decrease at early stage of the ischemic remodeling in cardiomyocytes, which leads to the decreased CICR in the cell and contractile dysfunction of myocardium.

Objective To evaluate the effect of bioabsorbable membrane in prevention of Frey syndrome after parotidectomy.Methods 105 patients who suffering from benign tumor of parotid gland were divided into experimental group and control group randomly.53 cases in experimental group underwent insertion of bioabsorbable membrane after parotidectomy,while 52 cases in control group underwent parotidectomy without bioabsorbable membrane.After operation 6 to12 months,all 105 patients were evaluated for gustatory sweating by both questionnaire and minor starchiodine test.Results Subjective evaluation of Frey syndrome revealed that the incidence rate of experimental group and control group were 3.8%(2/53),28.9%(15/52)respectively(P < 0.05).Objective evaluation of Frey syndrome revealed that the incidence rate of experimental group and control group were 9.4%(5/53),55.8%(29/52)(13/21)respectively(P <0.05).Conclusion Insertion of bioabsorbable membrane is an effective method for prevention of Frey's syndrome after parotidectomy.
