[Summary] Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy ( LSG) as a sole and definitive bariatric surgery has achieved well results in terms of decreasing the body mass index ( BMI ) and percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL ) , therefore reducing the obesity-related complications , but the mechanism remains unclear .As a restrictive surgical procedure , the most important mechanism of LSG might be the reduction of the volume of the stomach resulting in a limited food intake .Therefore, to achieve the best weight loss after surgery , measuring the gastric volume is an indispensable technology .Currently, gastric capacity measurement methods include imaging measurements and intraoperative direct measurement . Imaging methods include upper gastrointestinal radiography , CT three-dimensional reconstruction , MRI and radionuclide scanning , with each having its advantages and disadvantages .In this article, the measurement methods of gastric capacity before and after LSG were reviewed .

Objective To assess the influence of full-thickness continuous suture method and layer interrupted suture method in emergency abdominal operation closure.Methods Two hundred and thirtyseven patients of emergency abdominal operation were divided into full-thickness continuous suture method group (145 cases) and layer interrupted suture method group (92 cases) according to the suture method.The rate of incision liquefaction and infection,time of incision suture were compared between the 2 groups,the patients with incision liquefaction and infection were given bacterial culture.Results The time of incision suture in full-thickness continuous suture method group was significantly shorter than that in layer interrupted suture method group [(18.37 ± 7.42) min vs.(25.92 ± 5.79) min],there was statistical difference (P ＜0.01).There were no statistical differences in the rate of incision liquefaction and infection,the rate of incision primary healing between the 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).In full-thickness continuous suture method group,the rate of incision liquefaction and infection in median incision was significantly lower than that in rectus abdominis incision [18.58％ (21/113) vs.31.25％ (10/32)],the rate of incision primary healing was significantly higher than that in rectus abdominis incision [81.42％ (92/113) vs.68.75％ (22/32)],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).In layer interrupted suture method group,there were no statistical differences in the rate of incision liquefaction and infection,the rate of incision primary healing between median incision and rectus abdominis incision [33.33％ (23/69) vs.26.09％(6/23),66.67％ (46/69) vs.73.91％ (17/23),P ＞ 0.05].The rate of incision liquefaction and infection in median incision of full-thickness continuous suture method group was significantly lower than that in median incision of layer interrupted suture method group,and the rate of incision primary healing was significantly higher than that in median incision of layer interrupted suture method group,there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistical differences in the rate of incision liquefaction and infection,the rate of incision primary healing in rectus abdominis incision between the 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).The bacterial culture result in patients with incision liquefaction and infection showed positive was in 26 cases,in full-thickness continuous suture method group was in 10 cases (6.90％,10/145),in layer interrupted suture method group was in 16 cases (17.39％,16/92),there was statistical difference (P ＜0.05).The mostly bacterial of infection was Escherichia coli.Conclusions The full-thickness continuous suture in median incision can shorten operative time and reduce the rate of incision liquefaction and infection in emergency abdominal operation.Suture technique has important impact on incision healing.

Objective To observe the protecting effect of Tongluoningxinfang decoction on human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Methods To cultivate endothelial cells and prepare serum with Tongluoningxinfang decoction and Fufangdanshenwan,cells were randomly separated into 8 groups,normal group,model group,treat group (high dose,medium dose,low dose),control group (high dose,medium dose,low dose). Except normal group,add 30% H2O2 to the other groups,and make endothelial cells damaged models. Add serum with drugs to treat groups and control groups,and test NO,ET-1 and P-selection (Ps) respectively. Result NO of model group was significantly lower than normal group,all treat groups and all control groups. ET-1 of model group was significantly higher than all treat groups and all control groups. Ps of model group was significantly higher than normal group,treat groups (smedium dose,low dose) and control groups (high dose,medium dose). It had no significant difference compared with model group,treat group (high dose) and control group (low dose). Conclusion Tongluoningxinfang decoction has the same influence as Fufangdanshenwan on secretion of vein endothelial cells. Tongluoningxinfang decoction and Fufangdanshenwan all can prevent vein endothelial cells from damage induced by H2O2.

Objective To study the surgical method of comprehensive correction of secondary unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity using autologous cartilage and supported by septum cartilage and its outcomes.Methods Our surgery adopted an open approach,fully revealed the deformed alar cartilage and deviated nasal septum cartilage.Part of the nasal septum was removed and made it into various cartilage grafts to repair and reconstruct the columella,nasal tip,nasal alar and nasal dorsal by implanted in the corresponding positions.Results 18 patients with congenital unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity underwent the corrective and reconstructive surgery.The postoperative follow-up was 6-12 months,showing that the malformed nasal appearance came back to normal without obvious scar.The 18 patients did not have associated complications.Conclusions The surgery with a supplementary septal graft achieves good effect,the overall appearance of the malformed nose gets obvious changes,and therefore patients and their families are satisfied with the postoperative nasal shape.
