Objective To investigate the analgesic efficacy of intravenous administration of lidocaine in patients following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Twenty-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 30-55 yr,weighing 50-70 kg, scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy, were enrolled in this study. Lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg was injected intravenously immediately before anesthesia. Anesthesia was induced with intravenous fentanyl 2 μg/kg, propofol 2 mg/kg and rocuronium 1 mg/kg and maintained with inhalation of isoflurane (end-tidal concentration 1.5%-2.0%) and intermittent iv boluses of rocuronium after tracheal intubation. Lidocaine was infused abdominal intravenously at a rate of 1.5mg·kg-1·h-1 form the end of ofperation to 24 h after operation. The degree of abdominal pain and shoulder pain was assessed with VAS score at 1, 6, 12 and 24 h after operation. The effective analgesia was defined as VAS score of ≤ 3. The adverse reactions were recorded. Results The effective analgesia rate was 100% within 24 h after operation. No adverse reactions occurred. Conclusion Intravenous administration of lidocaine exerts satisfactory analgesia in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Objective To raise diagnostic rate of protruded lesion of gastrointestinal mucosa and to judge the precise differentiation to the depth of malignant lesion.Methods 12 cases of gastrointestinal diseases were examined by MPS combined with endoscopic examination.Results To the patients suffering protruded lesion of gastrointestinal mucosa with negative biopsy,the MPS provided a sound basis for diagnosis;To the cases of malignant lesion,findings of MPS with regard to the depth were in total concordance with that of surgical biopsy.Conclusion MPS is significanfly superior to conventional endoscopy with pathological biopsy in the differentation of protruded lesion of gastrointestinal mucosa.But in the case of malignant lesion,only the depth of infiltration of gastrointestinal wall can be correctly assessed by MPS.The value is limited in showing whole Picture for larger focus and in the identification of around lymphnodes and whether or no distal metastases in the near organs.

Aim To observe the effects of activation of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 ( ALDH2 ) by ethanol on testis injury of type 2 diabetic rats. Methods Type 2 diabetic rats model were established by high-fat diet combined with low-dose streptozotocin ( STZ ) injec-tions. After the success of modeling, the rats were ran-domly divided into 3 groups ( n =6 ): normal control group (NC), type 2 diabetes group (T2DM) and eth-anol+type 2 diabetes group (EtOH+T2DM). Rats of EtOH + T2DM were treated with low-dose ethanol, then rats of NC and T2 DM were given normal diet for 8 weeks. After 8 weeks, the levels of the fasting blood glucose ( FBG ) , glycosylated hemoglobin ( HbA1 c ) and testosterone were tested, and the ratio of testis weight to body weight ( TW/BW ) was calculated. Morphological changes of testis tissue were observed by optical microscope. The levels of ALDH2 mRNA and transforming growth factorβ1 ( TGF-β1 ) mRNA in tes-tis tissue were measured. The expression of TGF-β1 in testis tissue was observed by immunohistochemical stai-ning, then the positive rate of TGF-β1 was calculated. Results Compared with NC, the levels of FBG, HbA1 c and TW/BW increased significantly and the level of testosterone decreased significantly in T2DM. The morphological observation showed that some semi-niferous tubules atrophied, spermatogenic cells de-creased and arrangemented loosely, Leydig cells de-creased in testicular interstitial. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue decreased significantly, and the level of TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue increased significantly. However, compared with T2DM, the levels of FBG, HbA1c and TW/BW decreased, and the level of testosterone in-creased and the damage of testis tissue was attenuated in EtOH+T2DM. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue increased significantly, and the level TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue decreased significantly. Conclusion Activating AL-DH2 can protect testis in type 2 diabetic rats, which may be related to the downregulation of TGF-β1 ex-pression.

Objective To analyze the subtypes of eae genes in various non-O157 Shiga toxin-pro-ducing Escherichia coli ( STEC) strains isolated in China.Methods The complete nucleotide sequences of 10 eae genes were amplified by PCR and sequenced.The BLASTn software was used to analyze the se-quences for eae gene subtyping.A phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the10 ea e gene sequences to-gether with the gene sequences of 30 different subtypes in GenBank and those of STEC strains of 7 prevalent serotypes (O157 ∶H7, O26 ∶H11, O103 ∶H2, O111 ∶H8, O145 ∶H28, O45 ∶H2 and O121 ∶H19) using MEGA 5.0.Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was performed on the 10 STEC strains with reference to the Escherichia coli ( E.coli) MLST website ( http://mlst.warwick.ac.uk/mlst/dbs/Ecoli) for the typing of multiple loci.A minimum spanning tree ( MST) was constructed using the BioNumerics software to inves-tigate the phylogenetic relationships between the 10 eae gene-positive STEC strains in this study and hemolyt-ic uremic syndrome-associated enterohemorrhagic E.coli ( HUSEC) strains as well as all human STEC strains of O157, O26, O45, O103, O111, O121 and O145 serotypes submitted to the E.coli MLST website data-base.Results The complete nucleotide sequences of eae genes in 10 non-O157 STEC strains were 2.8 kb in length and belonged to 3 known subtypes.The predominant subtype wasβ1, accounting for 60%of the 10 STEC strains (6/10), followed byθandγ1 subtypes with two strains in each type.The eae gene sequences in certain strains were identical to those of the prevalent serotypes.Seven sequence types ( STs) were identi-fied from the 10 STEC strains carrying eae gene.Conclusion The eae genes harbored by the non-O157 STEC strains isolated from different specimens in China were diverse and had close phylogenetic relationships with the highly pathogenic and prevalent STEC strains.This study implied that the STEC strains harboring eae gene had high pathogenic potential.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of the blunt pancreatic injury.Methods The clinical data of 21 blunt pancreatic trauma patients admitted to our hospital in the past 5 years were analyzed retrospectively.Results 3 of 21 patients were simple blunt pancreatic injury, while the other 18 patients were complicated with other abdominal organs injuries.According to the grading criteria, the number of Ⅰ , Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ, Ⅴ grade injury were 4, 7, 5, 3 and 2 cases, respectively, and only 9 patients were diagnosed by CT before operation, and the diagnosis was confirmed during the operation in 11 patients, and 1 was miediagnosed in the first operation.Single drainage or debridement and drainage were performed in 8 cases and distal pancreatectomy with and without spleen were performed in 5 and 3 cases, respectively, and 3patients received pancreaticojejunostomy, 1 received Whipple operation, the other 1 case underwent duodenorrhahy and diverticulation.The mortality rate was 9.5% (2/21), and the complications of pancreatic pseudocyst and fistula developed in 2 (9.5%, 2/21 ) and 5 (23.8%, 5/21 ) cases respectively, and they were cured by drainage, while the other 12 were cured completely.Conclusions The preoperative misdiagnosis rate of pancreatic trauma is high;CT scan should be used to confirm the diagnosis.Careful pancreatic exploration is mandatory and simple and effective surgical procedures with effective drainage is important for treatment success.
