Objective To elucidate the effect of postoperative early enteral nutrition support (ENS) on cellular immunity function and nutritional status of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients.Methods Twenty patients with GI cancer were at random divided into two groups: enteral nutrition group (EN-group, 10 cases), parental nutrition group (PN-group, 10 cases). PN-group was given total parental nutrition (TPN).In EN-group,Since the 1st postoperative day Neutrinos(r) was infused, the infused volume was increasingly added from 500 ml/d to 1 500 ml/d, the infused rate was step-by-step increased from 21 ml/h to 63ml/h. T-cell subgroup, NK cell, IL-2, PA, RBP were measured in the day before operation and on the 2nd ?4th ?8th postoperative day.Results ① The serum RBP,PA levels were obviously decreased postoperatively (P

Objective To determine the role of double stapling technique(DST) in anus-saving operations for lower rectal cancer. Methods The clinical data of 96 patients with lower rectal carcinoma treated by DST were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 63 males and 33 females,aged from 22 to 84 (an average of 57.7 yesars). The distance from the lower end to dens line was 4～7cm.Dukes classfication: 24 patients belonged to A class, 30 B class, 30 C class,and 12 D class. Histological type: 47patients had high differentiation adenocarcinoma, 27 median differentiation adenocarcinoma, 17 low differentiation adenocarcinoma,and 5 mucous adenocarcinoma. No one died after the operation but 12 had anastomotic leakage(12.5%)postoperatively and all healed after treatment; 5 patients had anastomotic constriction(5.2%)postoperatively and all healed with expanding anus. Conclusions DST is a safe alternation for anus-saving operation for patients with rectal cancer.Conservative therapy is effective in the treatment of anastomotic constriction and anastomotic leakage.

Objective To evaluate the effect of combination of surgery and transcatheter hepatic arterial chemotherapic embolism(THACE) with or without placement of drug deliery system(DDS) of portal vein for hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT). Methods Fifteen cases of advanced HCC with PVTT were treated by hepatectomy, thrombectomy of portal vein with THACE,and 5 of the 15 cases received postoperative chemotherapy via portal vein. Results All patients survived after operation. The survival rate of 6,12,18 months was 15,12 and 9 cases respectively. Conclusions Operation is still an effective method for advanced HCC , postoperative comprehensive treatment can improve the survival rate.

0.05).(2) The volume range of 25 hepatocellular tumors was 395.16～2747.7 ml using diameter measurement and 203.10～1463.19 ml using MSCT 3D measurement before the operation.There was significant difference of the data in these two groups using t-test (t=7.689, P

Objective To determine the effects of individual antibiotic and immunosuppressive regime on postoperative infection in liver transplant recipients. Method There were 31 cases of liver transplantation from March 2001 to May 2005. The recipients received individual antibiotic and immunosuppressive regime based on the drug susceptibility testing and monitoring of blood drug concentration. The incidence and pattern of infection and the mortality in these recipients were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 15 episodes of infection during recipients' staying in hospital. The common etiologies were Enterobacter cloacae, pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Staph. epidermidis. According to the drug sensitive test, targocid/tienam and tazocin were mostly used in antibiotic regime for treatment of postoperative infection. With monitoring of blood concentration, appropriate application of immunosuppressive agents decreased the incidence of infection from 86.7% before 2003 to 48.4% after 2003 (P0.05). Conclusion Individual application of antibiotic and immunosuppressive regime leads to the suppression of infections and other complications in liver transplant recipients.

Objective To evaluate the potential of interventional regional arterial infusion for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Regional arterial infusion with somatostatin and antibiotic was performed in 20 cases of SAP within 4 hours after diagnosis confirmed,and pressurized infusion lasted for 5 days. Another 28 cases of SAP as control group received drug treatment all over the body. The SAP clinical data such as symptom,mortality,complication rate and stay time in hospital were analysed in two groups. Results There were significant differences in remission,serum amylase,urine amylase and lipase between the regional and total infusion groups. The stay time in hospital,mortality,complication and operation rate were lower in regional infusion group than those of control group(P

AIM: To determine the effect of hydrogen peroxide(H_2O_2) on voltage-gated potassium channel currents(IKv) in pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cells(PASMCs).METHODS: Using whole cell patch-clamp technique,IKv was recorded in freshly isolated rat PASMCs with acute enzymatic digestion method.The effect of hydrogen peroxide on IKv in PASMCs was investigated in normoxia.RESULTS: IKv in PASMCs was increased significantly by H_2O_2 and the increase depended on the concentration in normoxia.Current-voltage relationship curve shifted to the left.CONCLUSION: Hydrogen peroxide is an important K~+ channel opener.

This experiment aimed to investigate the effect of adrenergic system in the subnucleus commissuriu of nucleus solitrius tractus (CNTS) on renal nerve discharges. Norepinephrine (NE) was microinjected into the CNTS of rabbits and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and renal nerve discharges (FRND) were synchronously recorded. The results indicated that (1) microinjection of norepinephine into the CNTS of rabbit could significantly attenuate the frequency of renal nerve discharge, and at the same time decrease markedly the mean arterial pressure. (2) Microinjection of 0.3 nmol yohimbin into CNTS had no significant influence on FRND and MAP, but could attenuate and even reverse the effects of NE on FRND and MAP. These results suggest that microinjection of NE into CNTS may activate the alpha-adrenorecptor located in CNTS and secondarily produce a depressor effect by attenuating the activity of periphenal sympathetic nervous system.
