Objective To study the effects of chronic intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) on the functions of vital organs. Methods From January 2004 to January 2008, 30 chronic massive ascites related IAH patients were enrolled including 12 colonic cancer cases, 7 pancreatic cancer cases, and 11 gastric cancer cases. Control group included 30 cases of gastrointestinal carcinoma without ascites hence no IAH. The specific malignances in this group were colonic cancer in 15 cases, pancreatic cancer in 8 cases, and gastric cancer in 7 cases. Age, gender and cancer stage were matched between the two groups. Symptoms in digestive, respiratoy and circulatory system and liver and kidney functions were recorded and KPS scores were compared respectively. Results The symptoms of abdominal distention in chronic IAH group and control group were presented respectively by 15 cases(50%) and 5 cases (17%) (P < 0.01). Symptoms of heart-throb or hypotension in the two groups by 10 cases (33%) and 3 cases (10%) respectively(P<0.05). Symptoms of asthma or chest distress in the two groups by 9 cases(30% ) and 1 cases (3%) respectively (P< 0.01). Liver function were abnormal in 16 cases (53%) and 6 cases (20%) respectively (P < 0.01 ), kidney functions were abnormal in 14 cases (47%) and 1 case( 3% ) respectively ( P <0.01 ) . There were 22 cases (73 %) and 7 cases (23 %) respectively ( P < 0.01 ) in the two groups with KIS score being lower than 40. Conclusions Chronic IAH causes malfunctions of vital organs deteriorating patients general status and even leading to abdominal compartment syndrome.

Objective To study clinical feature of diagnosis of pancreatic cancer,in order to reach early diagnosis.Methods 70 cases of pancreatic cancer from ours in-patients 1990 to 2000 were reviewed and analyzed.Results The number of patients with stage Ⅰ～Ⅱ were only 8 cases(11 4%). 40 patients (57 1%) hospitalized within one month after they felt ill.19 cases(29 1%) were diagnosed as pancreatic cancer within one month,including 5 patients(26 3%) with stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ .Abdominal pain(73 4%),jaundice(10 1%) and discomfort of upper abdominal(5 8%) were the most common initial symptoms.misdiagnosis were 40(57 1%) cases .The most common misdiagnosis were chronic gastritis(21 4%),chromic cholecystitis(7 14%) and peptic ulcer(5 71%).The serum levels of CA199,CA125 were higher in 16/18 cases (88 9%) and 6/7 cases (85 7%) respectively. Three cases in stage I or II were found higher serum CA125 and other tumor marker normal.Five patients were diagnosed as diabetes within five months before the diagnosis of the cancer.Conclusions For most of the patients with pancreatic cancer ,usually they were definite diagnosis in moderate or advanced stage. So the status of the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is disappointed . Hospitalizing late,being misdignosed and developing quickly were the main causes;The most common misdiagnosis are chronic gastritis, cholecystitis and peptic ulcer;elevation of serum CA199 and CA125 are sensitive to diagnose pancreatic cancer. Detections of CA125 and hyperglycemia may favour earlier diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To study the recurrence of colon adenoma after endoscopic high-frequency electric polypectomy.Methods The data of 238 patients undergoing endoscopic polypectomy between 2000 and 2008 were retrospectively analyzed.The cumulative recurrence rates at 0-2 years,＞2-5 years and ＞5-8 years after polypectomy,median recurrence time and main risk factors for recurrence were identified based on the features of adenomas detected on initial colonoscopy.Results The cumulative recurrence rates of adenoma at the surveillance examination were 61％,81％,and 84％ for the three intervals,respectively.On multivariate analysis,gender,age,extra-colonic tumor history,alcohol drinking history and adenoma number at initial examination were the independent risk factors of adenoma recurrence.Conclusion We suggest a 2-year surveillance interval for Chinese patients with colonic adenoma after the initial endoscopic polypectomy,a 20-month surveillance interval for males over 60 years old who have more than 2 sdenomas at the initial colonoscopy,and an even shorter interval for those with exira-colonic tumor history or alcohol drinking history.

The effectiveness of rhIL-11 on thrombocytopenia induced by carboplatin in rhesus monkeys was investigated. Thrombocytopenia was induced in monkeys by i.v. administration of carboplatin at a dose of 15 mg/kg(-1)/d(-1) for three consecutive days. rhIL-11 (50 or 100 micro g/kg(-1)/d(-1)) or Neumega (100 micro g/kg(-1)/d(-1)) were administered s.c. for 14 days beginning one day following the final dose of carboplatin. The results showed that rhIL-11 significantly improved mean platelet nadirs and shortened the mean duration of platelet counts less than 50% of pre-treatment values. Administration of rhIL-11 also resulted in moderate increase of the reticulated platelet, leukocyte and reticulocyte counts in peripheral blood and megakaryocytic and erythroid progenitors in bone marrow. rhIL-11 did not enhance ADP-induced platelet aggregation. These results indicate that rhIL-11 has a potent thrombopoietic effect in vivo and could be an important agent to reduce the severity and duration of thrombocytopenia following chemotherapy.

Objective:To study the efficacy and influencing factors of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in the treatment of cholesterol gallstone, so as to provide reference for the treatment of cholesterol gallstone by internal medicine.Methods:From March 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018, at outpatient department of gastroenterology of 9 Beijing medical centers including Peking University People′s Hospital, the Sixth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, Beijing Huaxin Hospital, PLA Rocket Force Characteristic Medical Center, Peking University Aerospace Center Hospital, Beijing Youan Hospital of Capital Medical University and Beijing Tiantan Hospital of Capital Medical University, Beijing Tongren Hospital of Capital Medical University, and Beijing Shijitan Hospital of Capital Medical University, the data of patients with cholesterol gallstone treated by UDCA were collected. The inclusion criteria were that the largest diameter of stone was ≤10 mm and the stone was not detected under X-ray. The treatment plan was taking UDCA orally for 6 months at a dose of 10 mg·kg -1·d -1. The basic information of patients, the ultrasound examination results before treatment and 6 months after treatment, and scores of biliary abdominal pain and dyspepsia symptom were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of the efficacy in gallstrone dissolution by UDCA, and Wilcoxon signed rank test was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 215 patients were enrolled. The complete dissolution rate of gallstone was 19.5% (42/215) and partial dissolution rate was 50.7% (109/215), and the total effective rate was 70.2% (151/215). The complete dissolution rate of sandy stone was significantly higher than that of lumped stones (37.0%(17/46) vs. 14.8%(25/169); OR=3.377, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.621 to 7.035, P=0.001). In lumped stones, the complete dissolution rate of the stones with diameter ≤5 mm was significantly higher than that of the stones with diameter >5 mm (37.5%(9/24) vs. 11.0%(16/145); OR=4.837, 95% CI 1.823 to 12.839, P=0.002). The complete dissolution rate of patients with higher body mass index ( OR=0.872, 95% CI 0.764 to 0.995, P=0.043) and longer disease course ( OR=0.942, 95% CI 0.912 to 0.973, P<0.001) was low. The results of multivariate logistic analysis indicated that long disease course of gallstone ( OR=0.940, 95% CI 0.908 to 0.974, P=0.001), rough gallbladder wall ( OR=0.438, 95% CI 0.200 to 0.962, P=0.040) and lumped stone ( OR=0.236, 95% CI 0.101 to 0.550, P=0.001) were independent risk factors of influencing the efficacy of stone dissolution by UDCA. As for lumped stones, the independent risk factors included long disease course of gallstone ( OR=0.926, 95% CI 0.877 to 0.978, P=0.006) and stone diameter >5 mm ( OR=0.142, 95% CI 0.043 to 0.470, P=0.001). After 6 months of UDCA treatment, score of biliary abdominal pain decreased from 0 (0 to 6) to 0 (0 to 0) and the score of dyspepsia symptom decreased from 1 (0 to 2) to 0 (0 to 0), and the differences between before treatment and after treatment were statistically significant ( Z=-8.50, and -9.13, both P<0.001). Conclusions:UDCA has a certain efficacy in cholesterol gallstone dissolution and can ease biliary abdominal pain and dyspepsia symptom. Long disease course of gallstone, rough gallbladder wall and stone diameter >5 mm are independent risk factors of poor efficacy in gallstone dissolution by UDCA.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of aquatic treadmill training on abdominal muscle thickness and balance function in patients with hemiplegia after stroke. MethodsFrom March to October, 2021, 60 patients with hemiplegia after stroke were randomly divided into control group (n = 20), suspension group (n = 20) and aquatic treadmill group (n = 20). On the basis of comprehensive rehabilitation training, the control group received treadmill training, the suspension group received skyrail suspension walking training, and the aquatic treadmill group received treadmill training in water, for four weeks. The curative effect was evaluated by musculoskeletal ultrasound with muscle thickness of bilateral external oblique, internal oblique and transverse abdominal muscles. And they were assessed with Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patient (PASS) and Timed 'Up & Go' Test (TUGT) before and after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, the thickness of external oblique and internal oblique muscles on the unaffected side, the PASS score and the TUGT time improved in all the three groups (|t| > 2.135, P < 0.05); while the thickness of external oblique, internal oblique and transverse abdominal muscles in the aquatic treadmill training group increased (|t| > 5.567, P < 0.001). The PASS score, the TUGT time, and the thickness of external oblique and internal oblique muscles on the affected side improved more in the aquatic treadmill training group than in the control group and the suspension group (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe aquatic treadmill training is more effective in strenghthening abdominal muscle to improve balance function.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of simple knee trainer on active knee flexion in patients with hemiplegia after stroke.Methods From March, 2020 to May, 2021, 46 hemiplegics after stroke in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 23) and experimental group (n = 23). Both groups accepted routine rehabilitation training, and the experimental group accepted knee flexion exercise training in sitting position through the simple knee trainer, for eight weeks. They were measured active knee flexion angle in sitting position and maximum flexion angle in walking before and after training, as well as Holden Functional Ambulation Category (FAC).Results Both active knee flexion angle in sitting position and maximum flexion angle in walking significantly increased in both groups after training (|t| > 6.991, P < 0.001), and increased more in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 2.185, P < 0.05). The grade of FAC also improved in both groups (|Z| > 2.828, P < 0.01), and no significant difference was found between groups (Z = -0.821, P = 0.412).Conclusion The application of simple knee trainer can effectively improve the active range of motion of knee, which may be used in clinic- and community-based rehabilitation.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship among spontaneous turning direction, balance ability and fall risk in patients with stroke during walking. MethodsFrom December, 2021 to November, 2022, 94 patients with stroke were recruited from Beijing Bo'ai Hospital. They were assessed with simple Timed 'Up and Go' Test (TUGT, TUGT1), TUGT with a cup in hand (TUGT2), and TUGT with calculation task (TUGT3). The spontaneous turning directions at the turn point were recorded, and the patients were divided into no-same group (n = 34) and same group, and the same group was further divided into affected group (n = 33) and unaffected group (n = 27), according to the spontaneous turning direction. After a spontaneous turning of each TUGT, the patients were asked to finish another TUGT turning to the opposite direction. And then, they were assessed with single leg standing test, Functional Reach Test (FRT), 360° turning test and the Morse Fall Scale (MFS). ResultsThere were the most patients with left hemiplegia in the affected group (χ² = 7.995, P < 0.05). The time of TUGT1, TUGT2 and TUGT3 was the most in the affected group and the least in the unaffected group (F > 4.009, P < 0.05), and it was more in the affected group than in the unaffected group as post-hoc test (P < 0.05). The one leg standing time (H = 9.403, P = 0.009) and FRT distance (F = 4.300, P = 0.016) were the least in the affected group and the most in the unaffected group, and it was less in the affected group than in the unaffected group as post-hoc test (P < 0.05). The turning time (F = 4.134, P = 0.019) and turning steps (F = 5.611, P = 0.003) were the most in the affected group and the least in the unaffected group, and it was more in the affected group than in the unaffected group as post-hoc test (P < 0.05). The score of MFS was the most in the affected group and the least in the unaffected group (H = 8.192, P = 0.017), and it was more in the affected group than in the unaffected group as post-hoc test (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe stroke patients spontaneously turning to the affected side during walking usually are poorer in balance function, and in a risk of fall.
