ObjectiveTo study the diagnostic value of double balloon endoscopy (DBE) for gastrointestinal disease.MethodsClinical data of 53 patients with suspected intermediate gastrointestinal diseases who underwent DBE procedures were retrospectively analyzed for detection rate,complications and the incidence of adverse reactions.ResultsAll of 53 patients underwent successful DBE,Procedures were performed via mouth ( n =26),anus ( n =9 ) and the combined routes ( n =18 ).And definite diagnosis was made in 46 cases (86.79％),including upper gastrointestinal (above ligament of Treitz) disease in 3 cases (5.66％),intermediate gastrointestinal disease in 41 cases (77.36％ ) and lower gastrointestinal disease in 2 cases (3.77％).All 53 patients were tolerant to the operation and anesthesia.No severe complications like bleeding,perforation,intestinal torsion,mesenteric tear,pancreatitis or anesthetic accident occured.Several patients showed abdominal flatulence,transient abdominal pain.Some patients in oral route reported slight throat discomfort or slight nasal bleeding.Incarceration occurred in 1 case due to friction of endotracheal intubation and the silicone tube,which was released after deflation and removed out.2 patients showed mild diarrhea with low fever,and the symptoms were self-healing without special treatment in 48 h.ConclusionDBE is of high diagnostic value for gastrointestinal diseases with a high safety.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy,adverse events of gemcitabine vs.5-FU with radiotherapy for locally advanced pancreatic carcinomas.Methods Between January 2007 and January 2011,a total of 56 patients with locally advanced pancreatic carcinomas was included and clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.All patients received 3-DCRT radiotherapy with individual dose of 1.8 ～ 2 Gy,5 times per week,and total dose of 45 ～ 50.4 Gy for 25 ～ 28 fractions,and received concurrent chemotherapy (5-FU or gemcitabine).The patients (n =30) in gemcitabine group were treated with gemcitabine (500 rng/m2 at the 1st,8th,15th,22nd day,at 10 mg · (m2)-1 · min-1,through micro-pump) during radiotherapy; 3 weeks after radiotherapy the patients received gemcitabine infusion at a dose of 800 mg · (m2)-1 · d-1,one time per week,for 3 or 4 cycles.The patients (n =26) in 5-FU group were treated with 5-FU (500 mg/m2 at the 1 ～ 5th day per week,IV),the cycle was repeated every 2 weeks during radiotherapy; 3 weeks later the patients received 5-FU infusion at a dose of 800 mg · (m2)-1 · d-1,the 1st ～5th day per week,the cycle was repeated every 2 weeks ; with a total of 3 or 4 cycles.The efficacy and adverse events were observed,and the patients were followed until June 2013,and the median survival,1 year and 2 year survival was calculated.Results Of the 56 patients,the overall response (CR + PR) rate was 73.2％,and it was 65.3％ in radiotherapy with 5-FU group,80.0％ in radiotherapy with gemcitabine group (P ＜ 0.05).The overall one and two year survival rate was 48.2％ and 14.3％,while median survival was 15.2 months,and the corresponding values were 42.3％,11.5％,13.3 months in radiotherapy with 5-FU group,and 53.3％,16.7％,16.6 months in radiotherapy with gemcitabine group,and the survival difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P =0.071).At the end of treatment,the pain-relief rate (VAS score ＜4) of the 56 patients was 83.3％,it was 75.0％ in 5-FU group and 90.0％ in gemcitabine group.In radiotherapy with gemcitabine group,the incidence of 3～ 4 grade myelosuppression was significantly higher than that in radiotherapy with 5-FU group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (20.0％ vs 7.6％,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions For the locally advanced pancreatic carcinomas,radiotherapy with gemcitabine can improve pain-relief and prolong survival compared with radiotherapy with 5-FU,but the incidence of adverse event of myelosuppression is higher.

Objective To investigate the role of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in the diagnosis and treatment of adult biliary ascariasis.Methods Clinical data of 19 cases of adult biliary ascariasis diagnosed and treated with ERCP during Jan 2005 to Dec 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among the 19 adult patients with biliary ascariasis,11 were male,and the mean age was (62.7± 10.8) years.Eight cases lived in the countryside,7 cases in the integration of urban and rural area,and 4 cases in urban area.All cases had histories of eating raw fruits and vegetables.Living worms were found in 9 cases.Four cases were complicated with common bile duct stones.Petrification of residual dead worms in the common bile duct was found in 10 cases.All ascariasis and residual bodies were removed successfully by ERCP.There were no postoperative complications except for 3 cases of hyperamylasemia.Conclusions Adult biliary ascariasis commonly occurs in the elderly,and is frequently complicated with common bile duct stones.ERCP is efficacious in treating biliary ascariasis.

Objective To investigate the effect and significance of microglia/macrophage activation prior to cerebral ischemic preconditioning (CIP) in regulating toll-like receptors 2 (TLR2)/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) inflammatory signaling pathway in early stage after ischemic brain injury in rats.Methods Thirty healthy male SD rats were selected and divided into normal control group,sham operation group,ischemia group,intervention group and treatment group according to random number table,with six rats per group.A rat model of focal permanent cerebral infarct was established by occlusion of middle cerebral artery (MCAO).CIP was performed by local ischemia-reperfusion.Minocycline was used to inhibit microglia/macrophage activation after CIP.Features of microglia/macrophage activation after CIP were detected by immunofluorescence; mRNA expressions of predominant factors (NF-κB inhibitor α,IκB-α;tumor necrosis factor α,TNF-α) of TLR2/NF-κB inflammatory signaling pathway in parietal cerebral cortex by in situ hybridization method; death rate by Kaplan-meier survival curves; neurological deficits by a 5-point neurological scale; brain infarct size by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining.Results Microglia/macrophage started activation at one hour after cerebral ischemic injury in preconditioning group and presented a significant increase at 12 hours.Speed and range of activation were higher in preconditioning group than in ischemic group.IκB-α mRNA in preconditioning group started expression at one hour.TNF-α mRNA in preconditioning group remained a low expression in 12 hours and had a significantly lower peak value as compared with that in ischemic group (P ＜ 0.05).CIP increased rat survival rate significantly,improved nerve function and reduced infarction size when compared with the ischemia group (P ＜ 0.05).Minocycline inhibited nerve protection by CIP significantly (P ＜0.05).Conclusion CIP induces rapid activation of microglia/macrophage in early period of rat cerebral ischemic injury and provides brain protection probably via inhibition of TLR2/NF-κB activity and inflammatory overreaction to cerebral ischemia.
