Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of SB( stag beetle) knife in peroral en?doscopic myotomy( POEM) for achalasia( AC) . Methods A total of 58 cases of AC treated with POEM at department of gastroenterology of the People′s Hospital of Wuhan University from January 2013 to December 2014 were randomly divided into two groups,SB knife group and Dual knife group by using random number table, 29 patients in each group. The complications and therapeutic effects were analyzed. Results All 58 patients with achalasia successfully completed POEM. There were no significant complications in SB knife group such as subcutaneous emphysema, perforation or bleeding.But there were 4 cases of subcutaneous em?physema and 4 cases of bleeding occurred in Dual knife group.The overall incidence of complications was sig?nificantly lower in SB group than that in Dual knife group[0 VS 27?6%(8/29), P<0?05]. The operation time of SB group was(36?32±5?87)mins, which was significant less than that in Dual knife group(56?20± 14?41)mins(P<0?05). The symptom scores significantly increased(P<0?05) and the sphincter resting pressure decreased significantly( P<0?05) after POEM treatment compared with before in the two groups, and there was no statistical significance between the two groups(P>0?05). Conclusion SB knife is safe and effective for achalasia with POEM, which can effectively shorten the operation time and reduce the inci?dence of complications.

ObjectiveTo evaluate Fuji intelligent color enhancement (FICE) chromoendoscopy for diagnosis of early gastric cancer. MethodsFrom February 2010 to March 2011 ,a total of 67 patients with suspected gastric mucosal lesions were enrolled in this study. The lesions were observed with magnifying endoscopy, FICE, magnifying chromoendoscopy and indigo-carmine-magnifying-chromoendoscopy.Suspected gastric mucosal pit patterns and microvascular morphology were compared. Targeted biopsy was performed on suspected locations. Sensitivity, specificity and pathological consistency were compared between the 3 procedures. ResultsOut of 67 patients, 17 were diagnosed as having early gastric cancer.There was no difference among magnifying endoscopy, FICE magnifying chromoendoscopy and indigo-carmine-magnifying-chromoendoscopy in pit pattern findings,however, FICE magnifying chromoendoscopy was superior to other 2 procedures in displaying capillary loop. The sensibility, specificity and pathological accordance rate of FICE magnifying chromoendoscopy were 94. 1% ( 16/17 ), 98. 0% (49/50) and 97.0%(65/67), which were higher than those of the magnifying endoscopy [58.8% ( 10/17), 84% (42/50)and 77.6% ( 52/67 )] ( P < 0. 05 ), and were not different from those of indigo-carmine-magnifying-chromoendoscopy [88.2% (15/17), 96% (48/50) and 94.0% (63/67)] (P >0.05). Conclusion FICE magnifying chromoendoscopy provides rather clear images of gastric mucosa and intrapapillary capillary, thereby improving the accuracy of endoscopic biopsy and then imporving the diagnosis rate of early gastric cancer.

BACKGROUND:Mechanical experiment of finite element numerical simulation is the effective method to research the biomechanical structure of human body. OBJECTIVE:To establish the three-dimensional finite element model of a normal 6-year-old child’s humerus. METHODS:CT images of a 6-year-old child volunteer were imported to the Mimics 10.01 software. The threshold segmentation method was used to rebuild the humerus three-dimensional model. The surface optimization treatment and surface patches dicision were performed on the surface of the model with Geomagic Studio 12.0 software. Then the mesh generation was completed in the software TrueGrid. Final y, the material properties were set and the finite element model was completed. The boundary conditions and constrains were exerted to simulate the three-point-bending test of humeurs. After the simulation, the results were outputted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The humerus finite element model included 3 024 nodes and 18 758 nodes-hexahedron elements. The 0.01 m/s and 3 m/s dynamic loads were loaded respectively, then the central humerus fracture occurred and the load-displacement curve was close to the cadaver test results. The simulation results show that the simulation results of children humerus finite element model are close to the cadaver’s test, and the finite element simulation method can simulate the physical properties of the human skeleton very wel .

Objective To investigate the prevalence of 16S rRNA methylase gene armA and to analyze their effect on the drug resistance in multi drug-resistant strains of Acinetobacter baumannii . Methods A total of 72 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were collected from the Second Xiangya Hospital from Jan. 2008 to Dec. 2008. The size of inhibitory zone of these strains to gentamycin, tobramycin and amikacin were determinate using Kirby-Bauer( K-B) method. The 16S rRNA methylase genes armA were detected by PCR. PCR products were purified and sequenced. Then we used randomly amplified polymorphic DNA method (RAPD) genotyping technology for the establishment of DNA fingerprinting. In addition, we compared drug sensitivity test with RAPD technology. Results Twenty isolates of 72 strains were armA positive and the resistance rates of the strains with armA gene to gentamycin, tobramycin, amikacin were 90.0% , 90.0% and 90. 0% , respectivily. armA positive stains were divided into 7 types using RAPD technology. A genotype was the advantage type. Conclusion The study showed that 16S rRNA methylases gene armA was prevalent in Acinetobacter baumannii which could lead to resistant to almost all aminoglycosides at a high level. And the main form of armA gene prevalence in our hospital was the spread of the same clone strain inside and outside of clinic department.

Objective To compare the therapeutic efficiency of laparoscopic and open radical colorectal surgery in the treatment of colorectal carcinoma. Methods Clinical data of 77 cases undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery from September 2004 to October 2007 were compared with 90 patients treated by open surgery. Results Mean operating time was longer in the laparoseopic group than that in the open group [248 minutes vs. 225 minutes (t = -2. 11 ,P =0. 036)], blood loss was less in laparoscopic group [210 ml vs. 315 ml (t = 2. 82, P = 0. 005)]. Laparoscopic surgery was associated with lower rate of analgesia use [48% vs. 80% (x2 = 18. 69 ,P < 0. 01)], earlier recovery of bowel function [2. 9 days vs. 4. 3 days(t =5.59,P <0. 01)]and shorter hospital stay [12. 5 days vs. 15.5 days (t =2. 32,P=0. 039)]compared with open surgery. The number of removed lymph nodes [14. 2 vs. 15.3 (t = 1.04, P = 0. 3)]and length of reseeted bowel [18. 9 cm vs. 20. 0 cm, (t = 0. 88,P = 0. 383)]were not different between the two groups. The mean follow-up time of the two groups were 28 months, local recurrence rate, metachronous metastases rate and 3-year cumulative survival rate were not statistically different between the two groups. Conclusion Laparoscopic surgery is as effective as conventional open surgery in the treatment of colorectal carcinoma.
