To investigate the clinical risk factors of cardiac diastolic dysfunction in type 2 DM, Doppler echocardiographic examinations were performed on 63 male patients.With a routine 2 dimensional echocardiograph, mitral and pulmonary venous flow velocity were recorded. The patients were classified into DM, IGT and NGT based on well standardized criteria of WHO. All analyses were performed by the SPSS/PC or Windows Release 9.0 Statistical Package. The risk factors of impairment of diastolic function were analyzed by regression. Results showed that the levels of blood glucose and insulin were independent risk factors for diabetic cardiac diastolic dysfunction.

Objective To review our clinical experience on 12 patients with retroperitoneal infection who were treated with retroperitoneal laparoscopic debridement.Method This retrospective study included 12 patients with retroperitoneal infection who were treated with retroperitoneal laparoscopic dehridement and drainage.Results All the 12 patients recovered well and were finally discharged home.Conclusions Retroperitoneal laparoscopic debridement and drainage for retroperitoneal infection is a mini-invasive procedure.It was found to be safe,produced minimal bleeding and resulted in rapid postoperative recovery.It can be used as the first choice treatment in properly selected patients.

Objective To summarize the experience and clinical characteristics in liver re- transplantation following adult-to-adult living donor liver transplantation.Methods Due to biliary complication (2 cases),vascular complication (2 cases),chronic rejection (1 case) and hepatitis recur- rence (1 case),liver re-transplantation was performed on 6 patients through modified piggyback liver transplantation.Vascular anastomosis was performed between the hepatic arteries of donor livers and receptor abdominal aorta in 1 case,and the rest were subjected to end-to-end homonymic vascular anastomosis.Results No operative death occurred.Due to primary non-function,1 died after the ope- ration.During the follow-up period,1 had anastomotic stricture of hepatic artery after the operation and was cured by percutaneous venoplasty.The survival of the rest patients was 12,9,6,4 and 3 months respectively.Conclusion Peritoneal adhesion is the operative difficulty for liver re-transplantation following adult-to-adult living donor liver transplantation.

Objective To evaluate total laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization. Methods In this study,40 patients with portal hypertension and hypersplenism underwent total laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization,in which 26 cases had a history of up-GI bleeding. Results Procedures were successful in 36 patients.There was four conversions to open surgery.The operations were completed in a mean time of (224 ± 54) min,with a mean estimated blood loss of (296 ± 209) ml and with no serious complication. Conclusion Total laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization is a safe and effective available minimally invasive procedure in patients with portal hypertension and hypersplenism.

AIM:To investigate the role of danshensu on Smad signal transduction in rat hepatic stellate cells(HSCs)stimulated with transforming growth factor(TGF-?1).METHODS:The rat HSCs was isolated with collagenase by in situ-liver recirculation perfusion and cultured in vitro.MTT colorimetric assay was used to detect proliferation of HSCs treated with different concentration of danshensu.The expressions of ?-SMA and T?R I and II were observed by immunocytochemitry,indirect immunofluorescent staining and Western blotting when HSCs stimulated with TGF-?1 and with different concentrations of danshensu for 24 h.RESULTS:(1)Danshensu at the concentration from 0.0625 mmol/L to 1 mmol/L prevented the proliferation of HSCs in a dose-dependent manner(P
