Objective To observe the changes of combined therapy on disci intervertebrales and their surrounding tissues and thus to determine its therapeutic effects on lubar intervertebral disc protrusion with magnafic resonance imaging. Methods After combined therapy including physical agents, drugs, traction, manipulation and remedial exercises had been adopted to treat 40 iubax intervertebral disc protrusion patients for 30 days, morphologic changes of disci intervertebrales and their surrounding tissues of these patients were observed by magnetic resonance imaging. Results The effective rate of combined therapy on lubar intervertebral disc protrusion was 82.5%, there were no obvious changes of thickness, salient degree of disci intervertebrales, anteroposterior diameter, transverse diameter and latero-cryptae extent of vertebral canal after the treatment. Conclusion Though the combined therapy can not change the morphous of lobar intervertebral disc protrusion, it may efficiently relief the clinical symptoms of patients with lobar intervertebral disc protrusion.

Objective To explore the pathological characteristics, diagnosis and operative treatment of Mirizzi Syndrome(MS). Methods The clinical data of 95 cases of Mirizzi Syndrome admitted to our hospital in recent 12 years were reviewed retrospectively. Results All of the 95 cases underwent operative therapy. In the 95 patients, simple cholecystectomy was performed in 2 patients, cholecystectomy and choledochotomy with T tube drainage in 58 patients, cholecystectomy and choledoscopic bile duct examination via cystic duct in 15 patients, partial cholecystectomy plus repair of choledochal fistula in 18 patients, and cholecystectomy plus repair of the injured choledochus in 2 patients. 65 cases were folloned up for 1-5 years, and all of them have been in good health. Conclusions Mirizzi Syndrome consists of varied pathology. The selection of rational operation for different types of Mirizzi Syndrome can give satisfactory results.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid level and atrial fibrillation in patients with coronary heart disease.Methods Two hundred and forty-seven inpatients with coronary heart disease were selected.All the patients were divided into simple coronary heart disease group (90 cases),coronary heart disease with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group (85 cases) and coronary heart disease with continuous/permanent atrial fibrillation group (72 cases).The age,history of cardiovascular events,uric acid,echocardiographic characteristics and drug-taking history were carefully recorded.The risk factors of atrial fibrillation in patients with coronary heart disease were analyzed by Logistic regression.Results The level of history of smoking,diastolic blood pressure,body mass index,total cholesterol,high density lipoprotein cholesterol,low density lipoprotein cholesterol,creatinine,fasting plasma glucose,postprandial 2 h plasma glucose,interventricular septal thickness,carotid intima-media thickness and drug-taking history among the 3 groups showed no statistical differences (P ＞ 0.05).The age,systolic blood pressure,uric acid,left atrial diameter (LAD),left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) in coronary heart disease with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group and coronary heart disease with continuous/permanent atrial fibrillation group were significantly higher than those in simple coronary heart disease group,the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly lower than that in simple coronary heart disease group,and there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05).The result of Logistic regression analysis showed high uric acid,high age,expanded LAD and LVEDD were the independent risk factors of atrial fibrillation in patients with coronary heart disease,and uric acid showed the most significant correlation (P =0.001,OR =1.061,95％ CI 1.026-1.096).Conclusion High serum uric acid level maybe a risk factor of atrial fibrillation in patients with coronary heart disease.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is a common bile duct cancer.The radical resection rate of end-stage malignancies reported in literature is about 20％.Half of the patients have lost the chance of operation at the time of care,while the average survival time in the patients who can not be operated is about six months.Therefore,for most patients,looking for a palliative treatment which can prolong the survival time is particularly important.From June 2013 to June 2014,our hospital applied iodine-125 brachytherapy,to treat 7 patients with unresectable hilar cholangio carcinoma.All the patients are still alive,the average survival time of 7 patients is 5.2 months up to now,with median survival time being 7.8 months,and longest survival time being 12 months.With good outcomes,few complications,as well as significantly prolonged survival time,iodine125 brachytherapy is regarded with broad clinical applications.

Objective:To study the expression and physiological significance of water channel proteins in human T lymphocytes.Methods:AQP0-9 mRNA and protein in inactivated and activated human T lymphocytes were analyzed using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis and Western blot.Results:No AQP was expressed in inactivated lymphocytes.However,AQP3 mRNA and protein were expressed in PHA activated T lymphocytes.Conclusion:Water and glycerol transport mediated by AQP3 may be important in T lymphocyte activation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum nitric oxide (NO) and bone metabolism in streptozotocin induced early diabetic (STZ DM) rats. Methods Twenty SD rats were divided into 2 groups, 12 STZ DM rats and 8 controls. Fasting blood glucose, HbA 1c , serum insulin, bone mineral density (BMD) (whole body, lumbar and femoral bone), bone metabolic parameters 〔such as serum calcium, vitamin D 3, parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitonin, osteocalcin, and urinary pyridinoline/creatinine〕, as well as serum NO were measured. Results Compared with the controls, serum NO in STZ DM group significantly elevated 〔(51.3?11.9 vs 38.1?12.0)?mol/L, P

Objective To study the relationship of age and high risk behaviors (HRBs) related to HIV/AIDS among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China. Methods One thousand one hundred and nine anonymous questionnaires were collected from MSM in 1999. Univariate analyses were applied to clarify the relation of the age and HRBs. Results The numbers of accumulative partners and oral intercourse behavior were higher in 35 ~ 44 age group (P

Objective To study donor liver repair in modified piggyback liver transplantation and its ~relationship to postoperative complications. Methods The relationship between donor liver repair and ~development of complications of 14 cases of modified piggyback liver transplantation,which among 17 cases of orthotopic piggyback liver allotransplantation performed in our hospital,were analyzed retrospectively.In the 14 cases,abnormal hepatic artery was repaired in 2 cases,portal vein interposition shunt was done in 1 case;~repaired ligaments were sutured in 10 of 14 cases,and not sutured in 4 cases.Results None of the 14 ~patients died in the perioperative period. The success rate of the operation was 100%. 3 patients had ~intra-abdominal bleeding,postoperatively,and in 2 cases the bleeding was related to donor liver repair. ~Postoperatively ,there was no thrombosis of hepatic artery or portal vein, and no bile duct necrosis, no hepatic outflow tract occlusion. Conclusions Donor liver repair is an important procedure in liver tramsplantation.The quality of donor liver repair is directly related to the difficulty of operative technique during liver ~transplantation ,and to the development of postoperative complications.In donor liver repair during piggyback liver transplantation,reconstruction of the retrohepatic vera cava is very important.The constructed stoma must be compatible with the donor hepatic vein outflow stoma and be able to effectively prevent the formation of eddy blood flow,ensure patency of the outflow tract and effectively prevent thrombus formation.

Serum Ca, P, AKP, plasma iPTH, cAMP, urinary Hyp and BMC were measured in 31 cases of Graves' disease. The results showed that about 66.67% of the patients (including 21 controlled and 10 uncontrolled cases) had a decreased BMC, while serum Ca, P, plasma iPTH, cAMP were within the normal range. The data also showed that about 54.6% of the patients had increased serum AKP, but it would not exceed 25 U if no hepatic disease existed. There were positive correlations between serum T, and urinary Hyp, and between urinary Hyp and serum AKP, but a negative correlation between urinary Hyp and BMC. It was suggested that serum AKP and urinary Hyp could be considered as the indices of negative balance of bone metabolism in Graves' disease, and probably it was induced by excessive thyroid hormone directly.
