Objective To study the technique and to evaluate the clinical value of stent implantation by butt joint of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) and endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) for the treatment of obstructive jaundice. Methods 24 patients with obstructive jaundice were treated by butt joint of PTBD and ERCP after the ERCP failure, and the clinical results were evaluated. Results A total of 24 cases with obstructive jaundice were successfully operated by butt joint of PTBD and ERCP. In PTBD, 10 cases were punctured from right side, and 14 cases were from left side. PTBD, ERCP and butt joint were done simultaneously in 16 cases, and separately in 8 cases. The total serum bilirubin decreased by 47.07 in 4 days, and the direct bilirubin decreased by 45.43. Infection of biliary tract was the main complication. Conclusion Stent implantation by butt joint of PTBD and ERCP for the treatment of obstructive jaundice may be chosen to treat the patients who failed in ERCP alone.

Objective To investigate the role of endoscopic color Doppler ultrasonography (ECDUS) in the preoperative localization of insulinomas. Methods Seven patientsd woman) with biochemically diagnosed insulinoma underwent abdominal US, spiral CT and ECDUS in an attempt to precisely localize the tumor before surgery. Surgical and pathological results were considered as the definite localization of tumor. The role of ECDUS in the preoperative localization of insulinomas was compared with that of abdominal US and spiral CT. Results Ten tumors were detected by surgery and pathology. The sensitivity of ECDUS in identifying insulinomas was 8/10 compared with 1/10 for CT and 0/10 for abdominal US. Two tumors not detected by ECDUS had a size below 0. 5cm. Conclusions ECDUS is superior to spiral CT or abdominal US, and should be served as the first choice in the detection of pancreatic isulinomas. ECDUS identification depends on the size of the tumor and 'is hard to detect the tumors smaller than 0. 5cm.

[Objective]To apply interal fixation with new pterygo-shape titanium mesh cage in the treatment of degenarative cervical spondylosis.[Method]Twenty-seven patients of degenarative cervical spondylosis were reconstructed after vertecotomy with the cage including 19 cases of CDH,8 cases of OPLL,18 cases in male and 9 cases in female;single segment degenaration were 21 cases,double segment degenaration were 6 cases.All cases were excluded fracture,dislocate by X-ray and MRI preoperatly.[Result]All 27 patients were followed up for an average time of 10 months(from 6 to 14 months).The anverage time of bone graft fusion was 10 weeks.[Conclusion]The pterygo_shape titanium mesh cage can provide immediate biomechanical stability and prevent the mesh cage displace,subsidence,exodus after operation.The surgical procedure is simple,safety and without illic-bone graft,meanwhile can greatly relieve patients' economy burden.Then the internal fixation is elastic fixation,the bone fusion shows a satisfactory result.

Objective:Animal models were set up to explore the best preventative intra-nasal administration of interleukin 27 (IL-27)to diminish allergic airway inflammation of asthma and the related molecular mechanisms. Methods:Ninety-six female C57/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups,a group of the control group,a group of asthma group,and two groups of the prevention group. Based on being sensitizing and challenging with Ovalbumin ( OVA ) in the asthma model, two kinds of IL-27 administration asthma animal models were set up,one of which was low-dose-multiple preventive administration before OVA sensitization,one was low-dose-multiple preventive administration after OVA sensitization but before OVA challenge. Sacrificed the mice after challenging and analyzed the IL-5 and IL-13 levels in supernatant of Broncho alveolar lavage fluid( BAL) using ELISA;and HE stain and inflammation score were done for the lungs. Sacrificed the mice before challenging and used the lungs to analyze the level of total signal transducer and activator of transcription-1(STAT1) protein and phos-STAT1 based on the method of Western blot. Results: In low-dose-multiple administration before sensitization preventions group,IL-27 inhibits the secretion of IL-5 and IL-13(P<0. 05) and inflammation around bronchial and vascular obviously, and the inflammation score was lower than asthma group ( P<0. 05 ) , while another group has no significant effects ( P>0. 05 ) . The phosphorylation of STAT1 was impaired in mice after OVA sensitization, and preventative administration of IL-27 before sensitization could reverse the impairment of STAT1, whereas another group had no obviously changes. Conclusion:Preventative administration of IL-27 before sensitization can attenuate the airway inflammation in the mouse asthma model via reversing the phosphorylation of STAT1,while the mice which has been sensitized resisting the inhibition of IL-27 due to the impairment of the phosphorylation of STAT1 and already committed Th2-CD4+T cells existed in sensitization-mice airway might be the reason for such IL-27 resistance.
