ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effects of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and primary suture combined with choledochoscopy (LBEPS) and laparoscopic common bile and duct exploration T-tube drainage(LCHTD) on cholelithiasis.Methods101 cholelithiasis patients were selected and,grouped by the operation methods.56 cases were treated with LCHTD,while 45 cases were treated with LBEPS.The operation time,blood lose,and postoperative digest function recovery time were ampared betreen two groups.ResultsThe operation time betreen the two groups has no significant difference(P ＞ 0.05 ),while the blood lose,postoperative digest function recovery time in LBEPS group were better than the LCHTD group( all P ＜ 0.05 ),the differences were statistically significant.Meanwhile the LBEPS group had a less complication and re-treatment rate than those of the LCHTD group ( P＜0.05).ConclusionCompared with LCHTD,LBEPS had smaller trauma,less operation complications and faster postoperative digest recovery time,worthy of clinical promotion.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) plays an important role in the development of leukemia.COX-2 inhibitor plays a certain anti-leukemia role in the process.Many studies show that COX-2 inhibitor plays antileukemia role by inhibiting the proliferation of leukemia cell,promoting apoptosis,affecting cell cycle,inhibiting cell metastasis and reversing cell drug resistance and so on.Therefore,the researches about the anti-leukemia mechanisms of COX-2 inhibitor will provide a new target in clinical prevention and treatment of leukemia.

Objective: To optimize the extraction process for polysaccharides from the stems of Acanthopanax gracilistylus by smashing tissue extraction (STE) and to further investigate their cytotoxicity and immunological activities. Methods: Extraction process for the polysaccharides from the stems of A. gracilistylus was optimized by using the spherical symmetrical design test, and three factors were considered (material-liquid ratio, extraction temperature, and extraction time). The test compared STE with two traditional extraction methods, reflux extraction and ultrasonic extraction. The bioassay tests of cytotoxicity and immunological activities on polysaccharides extracted were studied in vitro. Results: The optimal extraction conditions for polysaccharides from the stems of A. gracilistylus were as follows: material-liquid ratio was 1:13.2, the extraction temperature was 80°C, and the extraction time was 420 s. With the best extraction conditions, the yield of polysaccharides from the stems of A. gracilistylus was 0.78%. The yield by STE was higher than those by reflux extraction and ultrasonic extraction in this research. In addition, the bioassay results showed the polysaccharides had no significant toxicity on RAW 264.7 cells at the dose of 10-20 μg/mL and facilitated the secretion of nitric oxide (NO) in the cells supernatant at the dose of 10-40 μg/mL in vitro. Conclusion: These results establish a steady and convenient extraction technology for polysaccharides from the stems of A. gracilistylus using STE method, indicating the polysaccharides have immunological activity to some extent, which provides a theoretical basis for the reasonable development of A. gracilistylus resources.

Objective:To investigate the corrosion fatigue strength of laser-welded specimens fabricated from commercially pure titanium (TA2) and titanium alloy(TC4). Methods:TA2 and TC4 were mechanically processed into a certain size and joined by laser welding. A fatigue testing machine was used to test tensile load and fatigue strength after soaked in synthetic saliva. The fatigue fracture surface was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results: The fatigue strengths of the laser-welded test specimens showed no significant differences compared to specimens in air. SEM examination showed that there were no defects such as corrosion pits. Conclusion: There are no significant differences between either laser-welded metal in the corrosion fatigue strength for dry specimens and specimens in synthetic saliva.

Objective To investigate the effect of nuclear factor ?B(NF-?B)decoy on the chemokine expression in bladder cancer cell line. Methods Human bladder cancer cell line EJ,NF-?B decoy ODN were used as a NF-?B inhibitor(scrambled NF-?B decoy was used as control).NF-?B DNA binding activity was detected by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA);and p65 subunit of NF-?B was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.Chemokines including IL-8,MCP-1,RANTES were detected by RT-PCR. Results EMSA showed that NF-?B decoy inhibited NF-?B activation induced by TNF-?.RT-PCR or Western blot test suggested that p65,IL-8,MCP-1 and RANTES were upregulated by TNF-? and downregulated by NF-?B decoy.However,mutated decoy ODN had no effect on them. Conclusions Chemokines can be detected in bladder cancer.They are activated by TNF-? and inhibited by NF-?B decoy.

Objective To investigate the changes of cardiac structure and function in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), analyze the related risk factors of heart failure, and improve the awareness of the effect of diabetes on the heart. Methods Randomly selected 170 cases of T2DM patients As the object of study, 170 cases of non diabetic patients as con-trol group, according to whether complicated with heart failure were divided into heart failure patients and non heart failure patients.Comparison of each group left ventricular posterior wall thickness, left ventricular end diastolic diameter, left ven-tricular end systolic diameter, left ventricular ejection fraction, E/A ratio Differences, analysis of the related risk factors of heart failure by logistic regressive.Results T2DM group left ventricular posterior wall thickness, left ventricular end diastolic diameter and left ventricular end systolic diameter increased , Left ventricular ejection fraction decreased, E/A ratio de-creased, were statistically significant difference compared with the control group (p <0.05).These differences are mainly come from non heart failure patients.Logistic regression showed that factors in patients with diabetes duration, HbA1c, com-pliance and complications of hypertension, coronary heart disease, is a risk factor for heart failure complicated with T2DM (all p<0.01).These may be the risk factor for diabetic patients with heart failure.Conclusion Diabetes can cause cardiac remodeling, systolic and diastolic dysfunction maybe some T2DM patients.They did not show symptoms of heart failure in the clinical, but their Cardiac structure and function are abnormal.We should pay attention to the cardiac function examination and early evaluation, prevention of risk factors, to avoid the occurrence of heart failure.

Objective To provide anatomic evidence for the application of the lateral thigh perforator flap.Methods Dissected five fresh Chinese adult lower limbs specimens which were injected with red latex via arterial cannula.On the lateral area of middle and distal thigh,obseved the number,distribution,course,category,length of pedicle and external diameter of the flaps' perforators on specimens.Results On the lateral area of middle and distal thigh 19 perforator arteris were observed in these specimens,averagely there were (3.8 ± 1.3) cutaneous perforators in each flap.Perforators mainly origined from the third perforator artery of profunda femoris,secondly from the second,fourth perforator artery and superior lateral genicular artery.Cutaneous perforators of the third perforator artery of profunda femoris pierced the flap on (13.8 ± 1.5) cm proximal of the fibulae capitulum,while the cutaneous perforators of superior lateral genicular artery on (8.6 ± 1.3) cm proximal of the fibulae capitulum.Averagely internal diameter of cutaneous perforators was (0.7 ± 0.2) mm at the point where the perforators pierced deep fascia.The diameter of the profunda femoris was (1.9 ± 0.2) mm,and the pedicle length was (12.2 ± 0.6)cm.The diameter of superior lateral genicular artery was (1.5 ± 0.2)mm,and the pedicle length was (6.8 ± 1.1) cm.There were inosculated branch in these perforators which came from profunda femoris and superior lateral genicular artery.Conclusion The anatomic characteristic allowed this flap would likely be clinically useful in repairing soft tissue defects in extremity limbs as a free or pedicled flap,which the cutaneous perforators invariably appeared on the skin of lateral areat of middle and distal thigh ; the flap could obtain enough length of the pedicle from its origination ; the vessel has large caliber supporting a substantial cutaneous territory.
