Objective To summarize our experience in the management of stones impacted at cystic duct during laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC). Methods There were 58 patients with stones impacted at cystic duct during LC from July 1997 to June 2001.Cystic duct was incised to remove stones first,then intraoperative cholangiography was performed.If stones were found in common bile duct,they would be taken out by intraoperative endoscopic sphincterotomy or open operation. Results All the impacted stones in 58 patients were removed successfully.51 coses underwent LC.Intraoperative cholangiography showed there were common bile duct stones in 7 cases.For these 7 coses,5 cases were treated by LC combined with intraoperative endoscopic sphincterotomy and other 2 cases were converted into open operation.No Severe complication occurred. Conclusions Nearly all cases with stones impacted at cystic duct can receive LC by removing impacted stones through incising the cystic duct and intraoperative cholangiography.If there are any stones in common bile duct,they can be removed by endoscopic sphincterotomy.
4.Research of Fructus Arctii and its extracts on the renal pathological changes of STZ-induced diabetic rats
Chinese Traditional Patent Medicine 1992;0(09):-
AIM: To investigate the influence of Fructus Arctii and its extracts to the renal pathological changes of diabetic rat and its protective mechansim METHODS: The rat model induced by 55mg/kg STZ once intraperitoneally was adoped as the diabetic nephropathy of early stage, the extract and the powder of Fructus Arctii were given to the diabetic rat for six weeks. We observed the changes of general condition, and examined the expressions of TGF-? 1 (transforming growth factor-? 1) mRNA and MCP-1mRNA (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1) by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). CONCLUSION: The ethanol extract of Fructus Arctii relieved renal pathological changes of diabetic rat. The mechanism perhaps was related to the reduction in the expression of MCP-1mRNA and TGF-? 1mRNA in kidney; The study proved that the ethanol extract of Fructus Arctii was more effective than its water extract and coarse powder.

Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2006;0(09):-
Objective To investigate the effects of combination of aniso-dosage of Astragalus and Arctium on the glycolipin metabolism and renal lesion in diabetic rats.Method Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats were established as experimental model.The diabetic rats were randomized into model group and mixture-treated group.Astragalus and Arctium were divided into three dosages (low,moderate,high) respectively and combined according to orthogonal experimental design and were administrated to the mixture-treated group.At the 4th and 8th week,parameters of blood,urine and renal tissue were examined.The blood sugar,cholesterol,triglycerol,HbA1c were detected by analysis meter of biochemistry,urine microalbumin by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and 24 h urine protein by colorimetry.The HE and PAS staining were used to observe the change of glomerular ECM.Results At the 4th weekend,the combination of Arctium high-dosage had better effects on decreasing blood sugar and cholesterol.While at the 8th weekend,the effects of mixture were gradually augment with the Astragalus dosage increasing on decreasing triglycerol,24 h urine protein and ECM.Conclusion The compatibility of aniso-dosage of Astragalus and Arctium could rectify the metabolic disturbance of glycometabolism and lipid metabolism,and lessen the renal lesions.The compatibility had different effects on various experiment phases.
6.The role of tracheotomy in children with severe hand foot and mouth disease
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2014;21(7):419-422
Objective To investigate the role of tracheotomy in children with severe hand foot and mouth disease.Methods Eight children with severe hand foot and mouth disease collected from July 2009 to August 2011 in PICU were retrospectively reviewed.Clinical manifestation and laboratory data were analyzed and followed up.Results Eight patients were enterovirus 71 (EV71) positive.Hormones,intravenous immune globulin,mechanical ventilation and vasodilators had been administered in patients with cardiopulmonary failure.They had severe neurologic sequelae,requiring prolonged intubation.MRI imaging of 7 cases showed abnormal brainstem,pons and medulla oblongata,1 case showed swelling of brain tissue.A total of 8 patients underwent a tracheotomy in mean (25.63 ± 8.86) d.The older was 22 months,the younger was 8 months and the mean age was (13.13 ±4.22) months.Four cases died,the other survived.Two cases were successfully decannulation,the other two were still in the tracheotomy.Conclusion Tracheostomy play an active role in reducing airway resistance,clearing airway secretions,providing the opportunity for subsequent rehabilitation.Eight patients were followed up for three years,neurological sequelae could not be restored.Four cases repeatedly suffer from pneumonia,atelectasis,leading to a serious decline in quality of life.
7.Analysis of the Guizhi Tang in Clinical Application
Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2016;40(9):654-656
Objective]To study the discipline of Guizhi Tang in clinical application, understand further indication of Guizhi Tang to improve clinical efficacy. [Method]After consulting medical cases about Guizhi Tang that are from different medical practitioners, analysis on the discipline of Guizhi Tang in clinical application with the help of six meridian syndrome differentiation, zang-fu differentiation and drug efficacy of Guizhi Tang. [Result]Guizhi Tang can be used to cure urticaria, coronary heart disease, nape carbuncle, high fever, half sweating and diarrhea. The cases of urticaria, diarrhea and nape carbuncle all contain symptoms of tai yang disease.The case of high fever is due to discord of ying-wei. The case of half sweating is due to discord of yin-yang. The case of coronary heart disease reflects Guizhi Tang can regulate spleen-stomach. [Conclusion] The medical cases about Guizhi Tang involve the departments of internal medicine, surgery, gynaecology and pediatrics,such as urticaria, coronary heart disease and so on. Using Guizhi Tang should get help from six meridian syndrome differentiation or zang-fu differentiation. When using six meridian syndrome differentiation, doctors should pay attention to difference of tai yang disease and other five meridian diseases. When using zang-fu differentiation, doctors should attach importance to the feature of Guizhi Tang that involves regulating yin-yang, spleen-stomach and ying-wei.

9.Advances on tick-borne encephalitis in children
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;(4):434-438
Tick-borne encephalitis ( TBE) is a well-known central nervous system ( CNS) infection in children. The disease in children is generally milder,although severe illness may occur and even lead to perma-nent impairment of the quality of life due to neuropsychological sequelae. We review the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of tick-borne encephalitis,and summarise biological and virological aspects that are impor-tant for understanding the life-cycle and transmission of the virus. Tick-borne encephalitis virus is a flavivirus that is transmitted by ixodes persulcatus. Tick-borne encephalitis causes acute meningoencephalitis. The serologi-cal diagnosis is usually straightforward. No specific treatment for the disease exists,and immunisation is the main preventive measure.
