Chinese Journal of General Surgery 2001;0(08):-
Objective To discuss the value of intraoperative cholangiography during laparoscopic (cholecystectomy)(LC). Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 398 patients (undergoing) intraoperative cholangiography during LC from June 1996 to Dec 2004. Results Forty cases of common bile duct stone, 3 cases of cystic duct stone, 53 cases of anomalous bile duct, and 6 cases of bile duct injury were detected. All patients were treated accordingly, and none died. Conlusion The clinical use of cholangiography during LC can help to markedly reduce the incidence of residual bile stones and promptly detect bile duct injury and other serious complications.

Objective To detect the serum levels of epidermal growth factor(EGF)in rheumatoid arthritis(RA)patients,and explore the possible role of EGF in RA.Methods The serum level of EGF was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)in 38 RA patients diagnosed according to dianostic criteria for RA by American Rheumatism Association and 20 healthy controls.Rheumatoid factor(RF),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR)and C-creative protein(CRP)were also measured in these 38 RA patients.The relation beween the serum level changes of EGF and the corresponding clinical indexes in the two groups was statistically analyzed.Results Compared with the healthy individuals,the serum EGF levels of RA patients increased significantly(P 0.05).Compared with simple bone rarefaction patients,the serum levels of EGF increased significantly in the bone erosion patients(P 0.05).The serum levels of EGF in RA patients had no correlation with RF,ESR and CRP levels(P 0.05).Conclusion The evident increase of serum EGF level in RA patients,especially in bone erosion patients,suggests that EGF may partly play a role in the pathogenesis of RA.

Objective To explore the value of MSCT in diagnosis of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Methods 24 patients with CTEPH and 8 patients with pulmonary hypertension by other causes were collected retrospectively.To analyzed the characteristics of CTPA images in patients with CTEPH,summarized the direct and indirect signs,and to compared with non-CTEPH.Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS1 7.0 software.Results According to the CTPA images,744 arteries of 24 patients with CTEPH were evaluated.The direct sign of CTEPH was mural thrombus firstly,accounted for 55.35% of the involved arteries,and then was followed by holo-obstruction,partial filling defect,central filling defect,irregular vessel wall thickening and eccentricity filling defect.There were narrowed lumens in 35.01%,dilated ones in 0.89% and no changes in 45.24%.The common indirect signs of CTEPH were pulmonary broadening (100%),enlargement of right heart (95.83%),mosaic attenuation,pericardial or pleural effusion,ground-glass opacity,infarction and atelectasis or consolidation in order.All patients had different degrees of pulmonary hypertension,and the most common findings of CTPA were widened pulmonary artery and enlarged right ventricle,and then were followed by enhancement of the inferior vena cava and hepatic vein,the expansion of bronchial artery and abnormal septal position.Conclusion CTPA can show the types and direct or indirect signs of CTEPH clearly.The morphological changes of the heart in CT are not enough to differentiate the CTEPH and non-CTEPH,and the severity of CTEPH is not alone decided by the degree of chronic pulmonary embolism.

Objective To investigate the factors affecting pulse transit time during anesthesia. Methods Sixty cases of gastrointestinal surgery under general anesthesia were investigated.The pulse transit time (PTT),BP and HR were measured at the time before and after intravenous anes-thesia induction,and at the time before and after the injection of vasoactive drugs,respectively. Results Compared to at the time before injection,HR,SBP and DBP increased significantly,and PTT decreased significantly (P <0.01 )at the time after injection of atropine and ephedrine.Com-pared to at the time before injection,HR and PTT increased significantly,while SBP and DBP de-creased significantly (P < 0.01 )at the time after injection of nicardipine.While HR and PTT de-creased significantly,and SBP,DBP increased significantly (P <0.01 )with the injection of pheny-lephrine.Obvious negative correlation between SBP and PTT was observed before and after induc-tion;meanwhile,only weak correlation between DBP and PTT was observed,and no obvious correla-tion between HR and PTT was detected.SBP and PTT were well negatively correlated with the injec-tion of atropine,ephedrine,nicardipine or phenylephrine.Conclusion All the PTT changes during anesthesia were found to be negatively correlated with the systolic blood pressure.

AIM: To compare the therapeutic effects of transplantation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSC) through different ways on diabetic mice.METHODS: hUCMSCs were labeled with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) and luciferase (Luc) reporter gene, and then the cells were transplanted into the diabetic mice through pancreas or tail vein to monitor the migration of the hUCMSCs in vivo.The pathological changes of pancreas tissue sections were determined by HE staining.Weight and blood glucose of the mice were measured dynamically.To compare the therapeutic effects, serum insulin levels were analyzed and glucose tolerance test were also performed.RESULTS: In vivo bioluminescence imaging results showed that the hUCMSCs transplanted into pancreatic capsule was mainly located in the pancreas while the hUCMSCs transplanted through vein tail injection was mainly located in the lung.HE staining illustrated that islet cells presented distinctive boundary and no infiltration of inflammatory cells in pancreatic capsule transplantation group was observed, but a little inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrosis formation in tail vein injection group were seen.A significant decrease in blood glucose level and a significant increase in serum insulin level in pancreas transplantation group were showed as compared with vein tail injection group.CONCLUSION: Transplantation of hUCMSCs through different approaches demonstrates different effects.The transplantation of hUCMSCs into pancreatic capsule is more effective on hyperglycemia reversion, insulin secretion and improvement of beta-cell function than that through tail vein.
