Objective To investigate the 5-year efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for the treatment of morbid obesity.Methods The clinical data of 31 patients with severe morbid obesity and related complications who were admitted to the Shengjing Hospital of Chinese Medical University from January 2006 to December 2007 were retrospectively analyzed.The 31 patients received laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and were followed up for 5 years to observe the perioperative condition,incidence of long-term complications,application of hypoglycemic drug and insulin before and after operation,the body mass index (BMI) was detected 6 months,1,2,3,4,5 years after operation,and the decrease of excess weight loss (EWL) was analyzed.The remission rate of complications,incidence of complications and the patient satisfaction score were recorded.The count data were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability.Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated measure ANOVA,a Greenhouse-Geisser adjustment was used to correct serial dependency.Results Twenty-five patients were followed up for 5 years postoperatively.Of the 25 patients,4 (16.0％) had gastroesophageal reflux disease,and were cured by medical treatment; 1 patient (4％) had anastomotic stenosis; the percentage of EWL of 2 patients (8.0％) was under 60％ ; 4 patients (16.0％) had occasional obdominal pain.The percentage of patients with diabetes mellitus was decreased from preoperative 9.7％ (3/31) to postoperative 4.0％ (1/25),with a significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The percentage of patients with fatty liver was decreased from preoperative 93.5％ (29/31) to postoperative 32.0％(8/25),with significant difference (x2=19.10,P ＜ 0.05).The percentage of patients with hyperlipidemia was decreased from preoperative 77.4％ (24/31) to postoperative 12.0％ (3/25),with significant difference (x2 =35.51,P ＜ 0.05).The level of BMI was decreased from preoperative (38.8 ±4.2) kg/m2 to postoperative (28.5 ± 3.1) kg/m2,with significant difference (F =113.36,P ＜ 0.05).The percentage of EWL was increased from preoperative 42％ ± 11％ to postoperative 69％ ± 16％,with significant difference (F =41.71,P ＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the patient satisfaction score between each year within the 5 years (F =0.92,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is effective in losing weight with few long-term complications.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of Rainbow Therapy on brain injury syndrome and cerebral palsy in children.Methods115 children with brain injury syndrome and cerebral palsy were treated by Point Massage Motorpathy (PMM)and patterning. ResultsCompared with control groups,the neurological development quotient (NDQ)of cerebral-palsied children increased by 28.2 in the group A (P<0.01),16.0 in the group B(P<0.01) and 18.7 in the group C(P<0.01) after 6 months therapy.The group A was significantly higher than that of the gruop B and C (P<0.01). Conclusions The Rainbow Therapy is effective for brain injury syndrome and cerebral palsy in children.It is important that the treatment should be started as early as possible.It is a convenient method that can be carried out at home.

Objective To examine whether ghrelin has beneficial effect on survival of pancreatic INS-1 beta cell.Methods Rat INS-1 cells were cultured separately in 5.6 mmol/L glucose (NG group),33.3 mmol/L glucose (HG group),33.3 mmol/L glucose plus 10 nmol/L acylated ghrelin (HG+AG group),and 33.3 mmol/L glucose plus 10 μmol/L unacylated ghrelin(HG+UG group).After being incubated for different hours,cell suvival rate was determined by MTT.Activity of caspase-3 was estimated by spectrophotometry,activity of GRP78,and cytochrome c was analyzed by confocal microscopy.Results Both acylated ghrelin and unacylated ghrelin inhibited the rise in activity of GRP78,caspase-3,and cytochrome c induced by sustained high glucose.Conclusions These findings indicate that ghrelin is able to inhibit endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial dysfunction of INS-1 β-cell caused by persistent high glucose,and the effect of ghrelin is not affected by acylation.

Objective To explore whether a single bout of exhaustive exercise can activate autophagy in mice skeletal muscles and to investigate the effect and possible mechanisms of exercise-induced autophagy on antioxidant defense function in vivo.Methods Thirty healthy 4-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a control group(n=6) and an exercise group(n=24).The latter was subjected to a single bout of exhaustive treadmill exercise.Gastrocnemius muscles of 6 mice on both sides were then isolated right after,as well as 6h,12h and 24h after the running.The manganese super oxide dismutase(MnSOD),total superoxide dismutase(T-SOD) and Copper-Zinc superoxide dismutase (CuznSOD) activities were determined using the xanthine oxidase method and the content of the total anti-oxygen capability(T-AOC) using the colorimetric method.The expression of Beclin1,P62 and Bcl2 mRNAs,as well as their proteins were determined using the fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blotting.Results The expression of Beclin1 mRNA in gastrocnemius muscles of the exercise group increased more significantly than that of the control group right after the exercise,as well as 6 hours later(P＜0.01).P62 mRNA expression also increased significantly(P＜0.01) 24h after the exercise.In contrast,the expression of P62 protein at 0h,12h and 24h after the exercise decreased more significantly(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01) than that of the control group.Similarly,the expression of Bcl2 protein at 0h,6h and 12h increased significantly(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The MnSOD and CuznSOD activity increased significantly right after the exercise(P＜0.05).The T-SOD activity decreased significantly(P＜ 0.01) 6h after the exercise.T-AOC content increased significantly 6h,12h and 24h after the exercise (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The P62 protein expression was negatively correlated with T-AOC content.Conclusion The single bout of exhaustive treadmill exercise can activate the expression of such autophagyrelated factors as Beclin1 mRNA and P62 protein and increase the autophagy to a certain extent to maintain antioxidant defensive function of the skeletal muscle.
