Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2001;0(05):-
Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic myomectomy in patients with large uterine myoma and the tumor located at special sites. Methods A retrospective study of 142 patients underwent laparoscopic myomectomy was done.In the patients,all the myomas were ≥10 cm in diameter;located at the cervix,uterus posterior wall near to the isthmic uteri,or broad ligament.The procedure was completed according to the volume and location of the tumors.For large myomas,the muscle layer was resected to remove the tumor,after removing the major part of the lesion(cut into pieces before moving out),the rest small parts were cut completely.Ligation was used for large tumors with sufficient blood supply in the surface or subserous myomas.For the myomas located in the broad ligament,the ligament was opened to pull out the tumor,and then the tumor was cut into pieces and resected at the root. Results The procedure was completed by laparoscopy in all of the patients,except in one who received laparoscopy-assisted resection.The removed tumors weighed 44 to 1903 g.The operation time ranged from 30 to 175 minutes.Intraoperative blood loss was 10 to 800 ml.No serious complications occurred.Among the cases,follow-up was available in 68 patients for 2 years.During the period,ultrasonography showed recurrent myoma in 2 patients. Conclusions With the improvement of the skills of laparoscopic myomectomy,indications for the laparoscopic operation can be widened.

Recent studies have demonstrated that resistant starch can decrease blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride, enhance the sensitivity of insulin, and reduce body weight Therefore, it is useful for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. This article reviewed the effects of resistant starch on blood glucose, blood lipid and insulin resistance of diabetes.
5.Research progress on anaerobic bacteria in tuomr gene therapy
Journal of International Oncology 2010;37(9):665-667
Hypoxic metabolism in solid tumor reduces chemoradiotherapy effect and become the obstacle in tumor therapy. Gene therapy is the most promising tumor treatment method, but currently using carriers cannot target tumors accurately. Anaerobic bacteria has become the transferring carrier in tumor gene therapy because it has tendency to hypoxia in solid tumors and can target solid tumors more accurately.
6.The function of protein kinase C in myocardial fibrosis.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2010;45(12):1467-71
Myocardial fibrosis is the common results of the development of a variety of heart diseases which leads to extracellular matrix protein metabolic disorders and causes cardiac remodeling owing to cardiac fibroblasts proliferation, eventually results in malignant arrhythmia, heart failure, and even the occurrence of sudden cardiac death. Effective inhibition of myocardial remodeling could prevent the occurrence of sudden death. To know the protein kinase C (PKC) effective mechanism of regulation on myocardial fibrosis, a new therapeutic target for reversing myocardial remodeling might be provided.

Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(04):-
Ⅳ, change of phosphocreatine (PCr) content was very similar to thatof ATP. Content of ADP, AMP, Cr and HYPO was negatively correlated to ATP content. NAD content was also reduced. In summary, recently proposed hyperkalemic crystalloiddilluted blood protecting myocardium would not be sufficient enough and further improve-ment is quiet neccessary.

Objective To investigate the genetic susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease in China.Methods The pedigree of 5 probands with inflammatory bowel disease (2 with Crohn's disease and 3 with ulcerative colitis) were analyzed including familial history,clinical features,radiographic,endoscopic and pathological findings.A detailed family pedigree and information of the whereabouts of each relative were obtained.Results Crohn's disease was found in 2 families,each with two affected patients (two brothers or mother and a child).Ulcerative colitis was i'ound in 3 families,each with two or more affected patients (an elder sister and younger brother in the first family,mother and a child in the second family and grandparent and 2 grandchildren in the third family ).First-degree relatives were susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease and siblings were affected more frequently.The member of the later generation was younger at diagnosis than the preceding generation. Offsprings had an earlier onset and more severe than affected parents. A high concordance for type and localization was found between males and females.Conclusions The patients with inflammatory bowel disease have genetic susceptibility and a few member may affect.It may result from multigene or autosomal recessive inheritance.

Objective To quantitatively estimate upper motor neuron (UMN) lesion with the triple stimulation technique (TST) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods Fifty ALS patients and 22 normal controls were enrolled in the study. Patients were examined clinically with conventional transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and TST at abductor digiti minimi. Central motor conduction time (CMCT),motor evoked potential ( MEP), resting motor threshold ( RMT), compound muscle action potential ( CMAP), modified ashworth scale ( MAS), Medical Research Council scale and modified ALS scale were assessed and their correlation to disease progress was analyzed. Results The TST amplitude ratio was significantly decreased in ALS patients with UMN signs(28 cases 62. 0% (40. 7%, 75.9% ) ), compared with controls ( 96. 9% ± 2. 6% ) and ALS patients without UMN signs ( 22 cases 95.6% ( 85.4%,100. 0% ) ;Z = -4. 827, -5.435, both P =0. 000). The abnormal rates of the TST amplitude in ALS with UMN signs, ALS without UMN signs and controls were 89. 3%, 27.3% ,9. 1% respectively. The abnormal rates of the TST amplitude, the latency of MEP, CMCT, RMT in detecting UMN lesions were 89. 3%,64. 3%, 53.6%, 64. 3% , 78. 6%, respectively. The TST amplitude was significantly correlated to tendon reflex in right arm ( r = 0. 690, P = 0. 000), with modified ashworth scale ( MAS, r = - 0. 772,P = 0. 000),with diagnostic degree ( r = 0. 483, P = 0. 000), with RMT ( r = - 0. 774,P = 0. 000), the latency of MEP (r = - 0. 444, P = 0. 005 ), motor evoked potential/compound muscle action potential of erb' s ( MEP/ CMAPerb, r = 0. 685, P = 0. 000 ), MEP/CMAPerb in facilitation ( r = 0. 770, P = 0. 000). Conclusions TST appears to be a more accurate and sensitive measure of detecting and quantifying UMN abnormality in ALS patients than the other parameters. TST may reveal the subclinical UMN impairment in ALS and provide an accurate diagnosis assessment for UMN loss in ALS and an objective scale for monitoring the progression of disease.
