For a long time, limited by the factors such as laparoscopic technology, and limited medical resources , the residents accepting standardized training are lack of mastery of the technology . Meanwhile, it is the key to the training of personnel training and reserve in the field for residents to contact the laparoscope as soon as possible and carry out scientific and effective training. Therefore, based on the traditional method, we have developed a new type of laparoscopic teaching system for the standardized training residents and increased and integrated the LAP GAME R operations training system and the real-time multimedia teaching platform. The preliminary practice effect is good.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of nalmefene combined with monosialotetrahexosylganglio-side sodium in the treatment of patients in brain tumor operation. METHODS:64 patients in brain tumor operation were randomly divided into observation group and control group,32 cases in each group. Control group received brain cell protection,reducing in-tracranial pressure,anti-infective,vasodilator and other conventional treatment;observation group additionally received 0.7μg/(kg· h) nalmefene combined with 100 mg/d monosialotetrahexosylganglioside sodium from the first day of operation,for continuous 7 d. The plasma cortisol,adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) before and 3,7 d after treatment,changes of serum IL-6,TNF-αand Barthel index (BI) in 2 groups were observed,improvement of neurological function and ADR were observed;Karnofsky (KPS)score was determined after 90 d follow-up used to assess the patient’s ability to take care of themselves. RESULTS:After treatment,plasma cortisol and ACTH content,serum TNF-αand IL-6 levels in 2 groups significantly decreased than before,the dif-ference was statistically significant(P<0.05);cortisol,ACTH and TNF-α levels 3,7 d after treatment,IL-6 level 7 d after treat-ment in observation group decreased more significantly than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). After treatment,BI score in 2 groups significantly increased,and observation group increased more significantly than control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). 7 d after treatment,improvement rate of neurological function was 50.00%,which was significantly higher than that of the control group(18.75%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). There was no significant ADR occurred of 2 groups in the study. Following-up for 90 d,the KPS score in observation group with not less than 70 points accounted for 71.88%,which was significantly higher than the control group(46.87%),the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Nalmefene combined with monosialotetrahexosylganglioside sodium can promote the recovery of patients in brain tumor operation,reduce cortisol,ACTH,IL-6 and TNF-α levels and improve prognosis of patients.

OBJECTIVE To assess the ultrasonographic features and clinical significance of the complications of the thyroglossal cysts. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the ultrasonographic findings in 41 cases with complications of the thyroglossal cyst, which was confirmed surgically and pathologically. 43 cases with simple thyroglossal cyst consisted of the control group. The location, size, internal echo, internal septa, wall thickness, posterior acoustic feature, boundary, vascularity, and fistulas of the lesion were analyzed and compared with the control group. RESULTS Most of the inflammatory thyroglossal cyst showed thickening walls, indistinct boundaries, posterior echo enhancement, and peripheral vascularity on ultrasound images. There were significant differences of the thickness of the cyst wall, indistinct boundary, and peripheral vascularity between the two groups. CONCLUSION The characteristic findings of thyroglossal cyst with inflammation are thickened wall, indistinct boundary, and peripheral vascularities. Ultrasonography can be useful tool in determination of the appropriate time of the operation to reduce the recurrence rate.

Objective To investigate the changes in cortical excitability and inhibitory circuits of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) or behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).Methods Forty-four patients with AD,30 patients with bvFTD and 44 healthy controls were enrolled in the study.The epidemiological data of all subjects were collected.Each participant received a neurological evaluation and neuropsychologic tests which included Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE),Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD).Neurophysiological evaluations including resting motor threshold (rMT),active motor threshold (aMT) and cortical silent period (CSP) were conducted by means of TMS.Neurophysiological parameters were compared among groups.Results There were significant differences in MMSE,ADL and HAMD assessments among 3 groups,but no significant differences between AD and bvFTD groups.There were significant changes in left rMT(46.52％ ± 8.77％,52.00％ ± 7.30％ and 52.14％ ± 8.27％,F =6.295,P=0.003),left aMT(29.68％ ±7.01％,35.13％ ±8.46％ and 35.39％ ±7.24％,F=7.735,P=0.001) and right rMT(47.82％ ±7.94％,52.07％ ±8.77％ and 53.12％ ±8.61％,F=4.772,P=0.010) among 3 groups.AD patients showed significantly reduced left rMT and aMT comparing to bvFTD patients (P =0.017 and 0.008 respectively) and controls (P =0.005 and 0.002 respectively).In addition,AD patients had a significant decrease in right rMT comparing to controls (P =0.011).There were no statistically significant differences in TMS parameters between bvFTD patients and controls.Conclusions AD is associated with hyperexcitability of the motor cortex,whereas the lack of changes in motor cortical excitability is found in bvFTD.TMS technique may be helpful in differential diagnosis between AD and bvFTD.

Objective To explore preliminarily the role of the E2 subunit of pymvate dehydrogenase (PDC-E2) modified by xenobiotics (e.g.2-octynic acid,2-OA) in the pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC).Methods Patients of PBC (102 cases),primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC,34 cases) and healthy controls (HC,50 cases) were selected.The anti-PDC-E2,anti-2-OA and anti-lipoic acid (LA) antibody in the peripheral blood of the 3 groups were tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).By inhibitive ELISA (iELISA),30 of the 102 PBC patients with anti-PDC-E2 antibody but without anti-2-OA antibody were selected to detect whether there was any new epitope on the PEC-E2 conjugated with 2-OA.The chi-square test and Fisher exact test were taken to analyze the enumeration data.The two-tailed unpaired t test with Welch's correction was used to compare the measurement data.Spearman rank correlation analysis was also employed for proper test.Results The positive rate of anti-PDC-E2,anti-LA and anti-2-OA antibody in PBC patients was 94.1％(96/102),73.5％(73/102) and 53.9％(55/102) respectively,all of which were statistically significantly higher than those in healthy controls group but were of no significant difference between PSC and healthy controls group.There was no significant relevance between the levels of Anti-LA and anti-2-OA antibody in the PBC group (r=-0.065,P=0.520).The iELISA results showed that the antibody,which only identified the epitopes on 2-OA-PDC-E2 induced by the 2-OA conjugation with PDC-E2,existed in 40％(12/30) of the PBC patients,and more interestingly,this antibody was predominantly appeared in PBC patients at their early clinical stage.Conclusion There are anti-LA antibody and anti-2-OA antibody in PBC patients,which have shown no significant association with each other.It is very likely that new antigenic conformational epitopes on PDC-E2 modified by 2-OA would emerge,which might led to the immune response in the individuals who are susceptible to PBC,and thus contribute for the breaking of PDC-E2 immune tolerance,and PBC occurrence finally.

Objective To explore the difference of gene expression profiling between normal basilar arteries and basilar arteries of cerebral vasospasm (CVS) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rabbits. Methods cDNA chip of normal basilar arteries and basilar arteries of CVS after SAH in rabbits were downloaded from GEO database. The chip was analyzed and screened by Bioconductor software, and function enrichment and pathway analysis of the differentially expressed genes were analyzed by Cytoscape software. Then 6 adult male Japanese rabbits were used, and randomly divided into normal control group (n=3) and SAH model group (n=3). Rabbit SAH models were established by cisterna secondary-blood-injection method. RNA data of normal basilar artery specimens on the 0 day and basilar artery specimens after SAH on the 5-day were used to validate the parts of differentially expressed genes by qRT-PCR. Results A total of 4356 differentially expressed genes were found in normal basilar arteries and basilar arteries of CVS after SAH in rabbits. Among them, 920 genes were considered to be significant with P-value<0.05, such as GRIK1, MYH13, ZNF45, SAA3, RLN1, MSR1 and others. Function enrichment analysis indicated that the differentially expressed genes were involved in regulation of Ca2+transmembrane transporter activity, negative regulation of ion transmembrane transport, regulation of potassium ion transport, positive regulation of JAK-STAT signaling cascades and other biological processes. Pathway analysis showed that calcium signaling pathway, cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and other signaling pathways maybe related with the differentially expressed genes. qRT-PCR verification showed that the expression of MSR1 in SAH model group was consistent with that of the chip result. Conclusion The gene expressions of basilar arteries of CVS after SAH in rabbits are significantly different, and MSR1 gene can be used as a potential target for studying the pathological mechanism of CVS.

Objective To evaluate the urodynamic and functional characteristics of 26 patients who had underwent orthotopic contient globular ileal neobladder. Methods The clinical date of 26patients who underwent radical cystectomy were reviewed. The neobladder pressure, capacity, urethral pressure and urinary flow rate were collected at 3-12 months after operation. Results The neobladders average pressure was less than 15 cm H2O when the volume was 400 ml. The pressure was 22.4 cm H2O at 100% capacity. The mean pressure of contractions was less than 40 cm H2O. The mean filling pressure after operation was relative stable while the difference between 3 months and 6 months was statistically significant. The difference between 6 and 9 and 12 month showed no statistical significance. The mean post-void residual was 42 ml. A mean voiding flow rate of 19. 6 ml/s could be obtained by Valsalva. Conclusion The neobladder not only could offer adequate capacity at low pressures but also could give a satisfied continent.

BACKGROUND: Thoracolumbar segments (T11-L2) prone to damage due to its special anatomical and biomechanical characteristics. Therefore, fully understanding the shape of pedicle of vertebral arch and finding the visible, constant, and the point of insertion of the pedicle axis is very important to the safety of pedicle screw placement.OBJECTIVE: To measure the surgically relevant parameters of thoracolumbar pedicles between Han and Uygur males using computed tomography (CT) scan to provide some anatomic reference data for pedicle screw fixation.METHODS: The vertebral bodies and pedicles of adult males were scanned (60 cases of Han people and 60 cases of Uygur people) from T10-L3 with CT. The parameters were processed by three-dimensional reconstruction. Transverse pedicle width, pedicle axis length, transverse pedicle angle, and sagittal pedicle angle were measured by using length and angle measurement tool of browser in bone-window CT images. The age and stature information were recorded. All the data above were processed by SPSS 13.0 software.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The mean transverse pedicle width of T12 and L1 in Han was bigger than that in the Uygur. (2) The mean transverse pedicle angle of T12 and L2 in Han was bigger than that in the Uygur. (3) The mean pedicle axis length and sagittal pedicle angle of T11 and L1 in Han were bigger than that in the Uygur (P < 0.05). (4) There were some differences among some parameters of the thoracolumbar pedicles between the Han and Uygur people.Data from any study only can be used as a guide for pedicle screw fixation. Preoperative CT evaluation may provide an individualized strategy to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications caused by misplacement.
