OBJECTIVE:To analyze the non-irrational prescriptions in pharmacy intravenous admixture services to ensure patient's medication safety.METHODS:We examined the prescriptions in pharmacy intravenous admixture services from Sep.2006 to Feb.2007 and analyzed the non-irrational ones regarding incompatibility,improper choice of infusion carriers,improper medication frequency,and the incompatibility of Chinese medicines etc.RESULTS:The non-irrational prescriptions totaled 126 cases,of which,46 associated with incompatibility,38 with improper choice of infusion carriers,25 with improper medication frequency and 17 with incompatibility of Chinese medicines.Most of the irrational drug use behaviors were corrected by informing the clinic these medication errors.CONCLUSION:Examining prescriptions in pharmacy intravenous admixture services can improve the safety and effectiveness of patient's use of intravenous drugs.

Advanced gastric cancer is usually dealt with D2 radical dissection. There are different opinions as to whether it is necessary to perform D3 radical lymphadenectomy.Some scholars thought that properly enlarged radical dissection can improve long-term outcomes for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.In recent years,laparoscopic D1 and D2 radical dissection of gastric cancer could be carried out in many hospitals.However,the technique and related skills for performing D3 radical lymphadeneetomy through laparoscope remains to be explored.Based on our previous experiences,D3 radical lymphadeneetomy using artery suspension method and medial-to-lateral approach for advanced gastric cancer is proved to be safe and feasihle.

Objective: To intensively investigate sporadic CMT patients, we have analyzed the LMNA gene in this study in a series of 32 unrelated CMT patients. Methods: Twelve exons of the LMNA gene were amplified from genetomic DNA. PCR products of each exon were analyzed by single strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP). Results: No abnormal SSCP pattern, suggesting no mutation in our CMT patients, was detected. Conclusion: The CMT diseases resulted from the mutations of LMNA gene were rare.

ObjectiveTo explore the safety and efficacy of endoscopic dilatation combined with submucosal injection of triamcinolone acetonide in treatment of benign esophageal stricture.MethodsThe patients of benign esophageal stricture proved by biopsy were randomly divided into three groups.Group A were treated by expansion only,group B were injected with triamcinolone acetonide submucosal combined with expansion,and we treated group C by another injection a week later on the basis of treatment in group B.A 12 months' follow-up was conducted,the dysphagia score,the cure rate.time to sustained symptom relief,re-expansion time interval and adverse reactions were recorded.ResultsSome patients experienced chest pain and regurgitation after the procedure and all improved by corresponding managements.No complications including massive bleeding,infection,perforation or local tissue atrophy were observed.The dysphagia scores in 3 groups after the procedure were all improved ( P ＜ 0.05 ),and no significant difference was noticed between 3 groups (P ＞ 0.05 ).At the end of the follow-up,the duration of dysphagia remission and the interval between 2 consecutive dilatation in Group A were 14.4 ± 3.2 weeks and 18.2 ± 3.7 weeks,respectively,which were significant shorter than those in Group B ( 19.3 ±3.9 weeks and 24.6 ±4.2 weeks,respectively) and those in Group C (20.2 ±4.2 weeks and 26.1 ±4.5 weeks,respectively),while there was no difference between Groups B and C.The cure rate in Group C (43.5％,10/23) was significantly higher than that of Group A (29.2％,7/24) or Group B (27.3％,6/22),while there was no difference between Groups A and B.ConclusionEndoscopic dilatation combined with submucosal injection of triamcinolone acetonide is safe and may improve the symptoms of dysphagia and delay the re-stenosis for patients with benign esophageal stricture,meanwhile,multi-frequency treatment may improve the cure rate.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility, safety and the long-termoutcomes of laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) for advanced gastric cancer (AGC).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical and follow-up data of 346 cases after LADG from January 2004 to June 2009, compared with 313 cases after conventional open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for advanced gastric cancer at the same period at our hospital. The surgical safety, postoperative complications, survival rate, and the recurrence and metastasis of cancer were compared.ResultsThere was no significant difference at the average time of LADG and ODG procedures (211 ± 56) min vs.(204 ±41 ) min, but blood loss during operation and length of incision in LADG group were significantly less than in the ODG group. The proximal and distal length were, respectively, (6. 3 ± 2. 0) cm and (5. 7 ± 1.7 ) cm in LADG group and (6. 3 ±2. 1 ) cm and (5.6 ± 1.6) cm in ODG group, the difference was not significant. The number of lymph node dissections was also similar: (33 ± 13) in LADG group and (33 ± 16) in ODG group. The incidence of postoperative complications in LADG group was significantly lower than that in ODG group ( 6. 7％ vs.13. 1％, P ＜ 0. 05). During the follow-up period of 6-72 months (average 37 months), the 1-, 3-and 5-year survival rates were, respectively, 87. 2％, 57. 2％ and 50. 3％ in LADG group and 87. 1％, 54. 1％and 49. 2％ in ODG group, the difference was not significant. The differences in recurrence and metastasis between the two groups were not statistically significant.ConclsionLaparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer is not significantly different with open surgery in postoperative survival rate or recurrence. It is less traumatic and of fewer complications.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of laparoscopic-assisted transanal pull-through resection and anastomosis in the treatment of ultra-low rectal cancer.Methods From November 2005 to December 2006,21 patients with ultra-low rectal cancer had undergone laparoscopic-assisted transanal pull-through resection and anastomosis in Southwest Hospital.The perioperative condition,postoperative complications and the result of follow-up were retrospectively analyzed.Results The operation was successfully performed on all the patients.The mean operation time and postoperative hospital stay were(216±25)minutes(170-260 minutes)and(9.4±1.0)days(7-11 days),respectively.The time needed for the recovery of gastrointestina]function was(65±14)hours(38-88 hours).The mean perioperative blood loss was(140±49)ml(80-250 ml).All the patients were followed up for(22±4)months(15-28 months),and no anastomotic bleeding or fistula was observed.Six patients developed mild to moderate anastomotic striclure,1 local recurrence and 1 liver metastasis.Conclusions Laparoscopic-assisted transanal pull-through resection and anastomosis for ultra-low rectal cancer is safe and feasible,and the short-term effect is satisfactory.

The operation path, lymph node dissection and reconstruction of the alimentary tract are the three most technical difficulties of laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy. The essential difference between laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy and open gastrectomy is the operation path. Based on our clinical experience, we investigated reasonable paths for laparoscopyassisted gastrectomy. Patients were placed in a supine position with their legs apart, and the operator stood on the left side of the patient. Five trocars were placed in the abdominal wall in a curved line. The operation was carried out in the order of greater gastric curvature, the lower region of the pylorus and antrum,the upper region of the pancreas, omentum minus, cardia, and arcuate diaphragm. From May 2004 to April 2010, we successfully carried out 761 laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomies with satisfactory outcomes.

Objective: To observe the clinical effect of tuina in rehabilitation following total hip replacement. Methods: 60 cases were randomly allocated into a treatment group and control group, 30 cases in each group. Cases in the treatment were treated with combined mina and rehabilitation, while cases in the control group were treated with rehabilitation alone. All treatment retained for two weeks. The results were observed 7 d, 2 weeks and 6 weeks following the total hip replacement using Harris scale and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA).Results: For Harris scale, there were significant intra-group differences in different time frames (P＜0.05); there were no statistical differences between the two groups 1 d, 7 d and 6 weeks following the total hip replacement (P＞0.05); and there were statistical differences between the two groups 2 weeks following the total hip replacement. For HAMA scale, there were significant intra-group differences in different time frames (P＜0.05); there were no significant differences between the two groups 1 d following the total hip replacement; and there were substantial differences between the two groups 7 d, 2 weeks and 6 weeks following the total hip replacement. Conclusion: In a given unit time, combined mina and rehabilitation is superior to rehabilitation alone in improving the patients' post-operative pain, articular range of motion and anxiety.

Objective: To observe the effect of acupuncture and Chinese mina manipulation therapy in treating knee osteoarthritis, and analyze the alteration of musculus quadriceps femoris strength.Methods: A total of 80 patients were randomly assigned to a treatment group receiving acupuncture combined Chinese tuina manipulation therapy (n=40) and a control group receiving Fenbid treatment (n=40), curative effective score, Lequene & Mery assessment tests, and isokinetic evaluation were recorded before and after the treatment course. Results: The total effective rate was 90.0 % in the treatment group and 87.5% in the control group, without a significant difference between the two groups. Lequene & Mery assessment tests had no significant change. Musculus quadriceps femoris isokinetic evaluation improved significantly after the treatment course in the two groups (P＜0.05), and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture combined with tuina manipulation therapy and Fenbid treatment both can reduce knee pain and joint disability in the short term, though no improvement was shown in the severity of the disease.Acupuncture combined with mina manipulation therapy is better than Fenbid in improving the strength, total work and explosive force of the musculus quadriceps femoris.
