Object To apply the technique of tissue culture to the rapid propagation of Stemona japo-nica (Bl.) Miq. and lay a foundation for the rapid propagation of its improved breeds. Methods The explants used for culture were stem segments with axillary bud of S. japonica. The media were MS basal media containing different plant hormones. Results The results of the study indicated that shoots could be induced successfully in MS medium supplement with 6-BA 3.0 mg/L and IBA 0.2 mg/L, and the better medium for bud multiplication and root inducement were MS+6-BA 3.0 mg/L+IBA 0.3 mg/L and MS+IBA 2.0 mg/L+AgNO 3 0.5 mg/L respectively. After 30 days' culture, the rate of rooting reached over 50%. The survival rate of transplanting was raised obviously by using 20 mg/L carbendazim treatment. Conclusion The primary plant regeneration system of S. japonica has been established, which makes the industrial production possible.

Objective To evaluate permissive hypocaloric intake in postoperative patients by a prospective, randomized, controlled trial. MethodsForty-two postoperative patients were randomly assigned to receive 117kJ?kg~ -1?d~ -1in control group, and 75kJ?kg~ -1?d~ -1in experimental group intravenously. Blood routine, liver and renal functions were measured one day before and day 1, 3, 5 post operation. Blood glucose level, insulin intervention, infectious complications, hospital stay, and relevant cost were also evaluated. ResultsHypocaloric intake in the experimental group post-operatively did not influence the hemoglobin level, liver function, and other indicators in the serum. The fasting blood glucose and glucose levels after infusion, as well as the volume of insulin intervention were significantly higher in the control group during 4 days of parenteral nutrition. Experimental group had lower relevant hospital cost, while two groups had similar duration of hospital stay. ConclusionPermissive hypocaloric intake shortly after surgery does not influence the patient nutritional status, besides it avoids to some extent the hyperglycemia, reduces the need for insulin intervention .

Objective To investigate the effect of Ulinastatin, a urinary trypsin inhibitor on the outcome of patients undergoing liver resection. Methods In this prospective, randomized, and controlled clinical study, 42 patients undergoing hepatectomy were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. In treatment group Ulinastatin was given on the day of surgery and the three consecutive days. Blood was tested for biochemistry. ResultsSerum ALT and AST levels in treatment group were significantly lower than those in control group 12 hours post-operation, especially in patients undergoing multisegmentectomy. Difference became insignificant at the time point of 60 hours post-operation. Administration of Ulinastatin resulted in faster decrease of serum bilirubin level in patients undergoing small volume hepatectomy, and no effect on coagulative function was observed. Conclusions The protective effects of urinary trypsin inhibitor exist mainly in early stage of major liver resection.

Objective To summarize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver. Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical manifestations,imagings, laboratory tests, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of 18 consecutive cases finally established as NRH during the past 26 years. Results 15 of the 18 cases showed portal hypertension, 4 cases showed mono or multiple occupations of the liver, 8 cases suffered from concurrent autoimmune diseases, 3 cases were suspected of blood diseases. Preoperatively, 13 cases were diagnosed as cirrhosis, 2 cases were diagnosed as liver cancer or focal nodular hyperplasia ( FNH). All cases were diagnosed by operative wedging biopsy. 3 cases received splenectomy, 4 cases received disconnection /Phemister surgery, 3 cases received liver occupation/liver lobe resection, 1 case received partial small bowel resection, and 1 case received spleen artery restrictive surgery. Postoperatively, symptoms of portal hypertension relieved obviously. Follow-up study showed most of the patients were stable and prognosis of the NRH was good.Conclusions NRH may relate to the disturbance of liver blood supply, and most common clinical manifestation is portal hypertension, and can combine with immune diseases, hematopathy also can present single or multiple liver occupations. Differential diagnoses include liver cirrhosis, FNH, idiopathic portal hypertension. Diagnosis of NRH relies on liver wedging biopsy. Surgery can relive concurrent portal hypertension.

Objective To investigate the impact of vascular inflow occlusion of the liver on arterial lactate level and pH value. Methods In this study, 68 patients who underwent hepatectomy from January 2006 to December 2008 were retrospectively studied. The patients were assigned to one of the three study groups according the vascular inflow status: clamping of portal vein and hepatic artery in the hepatic pedicle (n = 20), hemihepatectomy under total hemihepatic vascular exclusion (THVE, n = 22), and non-vascular occlusion (n = 26). Postoperative arterial blood gas analysis including systemic arterial lactate concentration, and liver and renal function tests were performed. Results Systemic arterial blood lactate levels significantly elevated in the portal clamping and THVE groups (5.53 ±2. 31 mmol/L and 5.62 ±2.52mmol/L, respectively), compared to the non-occlusion group (3. 37 ± 1.56 mmol/L, P < 0. 05) ;significant increase in arterial HCO3- level was observed in the THVE group in comparison to the nonocclusion group (19. 68 ± 3. 82) mmol/L vs. (21.65 ± 2. 48) mmol/L, (P < 0. 05). There were no significant differences as to the changes of pH values, liver and renal function tests between the three groups. Conclusions Vascular inflow deprivation may result in significantly increased arterial lactate level. Thus, intense surveillance of blood lactate level with prompt treatment is necessary to prevent postoperative hyperlactatemia and metabolic acidosis.
