Objective To investigate the application value of perioperative enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) combined with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) in the treatment of choledocholithiasis.Methods The clinical data of 84 patients with choledocholithiasis who were admitted to the Yijishan Hospital from January 2011 to December 2013 were prospectively analyzed.A single-blind,randomized,controlled study was performed in the 75 patients who were allocated into the control group and the enhanced recovery after surgery group (ERAS group) based on a random number table.All the patients underwent LCBDE,the patients in the control group received conventional perioperative management and the patients in the ERAS group received perioperative management according to enhanced recovery rehabilitation program.All the patients were followed up by outpatient interview till postoperative month 6.The clinical features,liver function and residual stones in the patients were observed.The operation time,postoperative complications,postoperative intestinal function recovery,duration of hospital stay and hospital expenses in the two groups were compared.Measurement data with normal distribution were presented as x ± s.Comparison between groups were evaluated with an independant sample t test.Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test.Results All the 75 eligible patients undergoing successful operation were randomly divided into the control group (35 patients) and the ERAS group (40 patients).The operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss in the control group and the ERAS group were (185 ±46)minutes and (124 ±28)mL,(178 ±37) minutes and (114 ±32)mL,respectively,with no significant difference (t =0.729,1.431,P ＞ 0.05).There were 12,14 and 10 patients in the control group and 5,6 and 4 patients in the ERAS group with postoperative incision pain,vomit and infection,showing a significant difference (x2=5.054,5.966,4.241,P ＜ 0.05).The level of white blood cell,alanine aminotrausferase and direct bilirubin in the control group and in the ERAS group were (11.4 ± 3.5) × 109/L,(128 ± 33)U/L,(38 ±14) μmol/L and (10.6 ± 3.0) × 109/L,(135 ± 35) U/L,(44 ± 16) μmol/L at postoperative day 1,compared with (7.8 ±2.9) × 109/L,(48 ± 14) U/L,(21 ± 8) μmol/L and (6.9 ±2.1) × 109/L,(43 ± 13) U/L,(20 ±7) μmol/L in the 2 groups at postoperative day 4,respectively,showing no significant difference between the 2 groups (t =1.018,-0.872,-1.767,1.553,1.836,1.044,P ＞ 0.05).The postoperative first flatus day,time of food intake,time of postoperative infusion and duration of hospital stay were (42 ± 13)hour,(45 ±14) hours,(6.8 ±2.3)days and (11.3 ±4.5)days in the control group,and (35± 11)hours,(19 ±7)hours,(4.2 ± 1.8) days and (9.6 ± 2.4) days in the ERAS group,with a significant difference between the 2 groups (t =2.741,10.524,5.485,2.077,P ＜ 0.05).The total hospital expenses was (18 729 ± 3 127) yuan in the control group,which was significantly greater than (16 981 ±2 756) yuan in the ERAS group (t =2.574,P ＜ 0.05).The liver function of all the patients was recovered at the postoperative month 1.Four patients with residual stones in the 2 groups were detected by T-tube cholangiography,and were cured by removal of gallstones by choledochoscopy.There were no complications of the abdominal pain,jaundice and fever in all the patients till the end of follow-up.Conclusion ERAS combined with LCBDE for the treatment of choledocholithiasis is safe and feasible,with the advantages of low morbidity,quick recovery,short duration of hospital stay and less hospital expenses.

Objective To explore the possibility and reliability of mutual recognition of renal indexs among 20 clinical labora-tories entitled with state key clinical laboratory,and to supply reference for future national mutual recognition of laboratory examination results.Methods Determined the concentrations of TP,ALB,TC,TG and Roche multiple calibrators and sub-mitted the results.The results were analyzed for robust Z score,percentage difference after calibration,bias at medical deci-sion level to observe the possibility and reliability.Results The bias of TG was out of the least allowable bias,thus they were not appropriate to mutual recognition.Conclusion It remains immature in the mutual recognition of lipids’determina-tions and much work needs to be done in field of internal quality control of the laboratory.

Objective To explore the effective method on the knee osteoarthritis (KOA) of stroke patients.Methods Twenty-four stroke patients with KOA were randomly divided into the treatment group and control group with 12 cases in each group. All patients received facilitation technique exercise, the patients in the treatment group were added with an extra complex therapy of electronic acupuncture, physical and exercise thepapies. All patients of two groups were assessed with visual analogous score (VAS) and Fugl-Meyer Motion Scale (FMMS) before treatment and one course after treatment.Results After treatment, the scores of VAS and FMMS of the patients in the treatment group were significantly better than that in the control group ( P<0.01).Conclusion Multidisciplinary rehabilitation including electronic acupuncture, physical, and exercise is efficiancy to KOA of stroke patients.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the conversion of resin monomer, the change of inorganic component and the influencing factors on the oxygen inhibition layer formed on the cured surface of resin cement. METHODS: Three kinds of resin cement were divided into three groups: (1) light-cured group: RelyX Veneer, NX3 (light-cured), Variolink N; (2) dual-cured group: RelyX U200 Automix, NX3 (dual-cured), Multilink Speed; (3) chemically-cured group, and the above 3 types of dual-cured resin cement cured without illumination could be used as chemically-cured resin cement. Each sample was provided with and without oxygen exposure of two matching surfaces, cured respectively, and the variables of light intensity and illumination time were set in the light-cured group and the dual-cured group. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the samples' surface morphology. Energy dispersive spectrometer was used to analyze the samples' composition of surface elements. Confocal Raman spectroscopy was used to measure the monomer conversion of resin cement and to obtain the thickness of the oxygen inhibition layer. RESULTS: (1) On the surface of cured resin cement, the weight percentage of oxygen element in the aerobic side was higher than that in the anaerobic side (P < 0.05), and the weight percentage of inorganic element was lower than that in the anaerobic side (P < 0.05). (2) The surface monomer conversion of the cured resin cement on the aerobic surface was significantly lower than that on the anaerobic surface (P < 0.05), and the surface monomer conversion on the aerobic surface and the anaerobic surface was the lowest in the chemically-cured group (P < 0.05), the dual-cured group was the highest (P < 0.05), and the light-cured group was between them. With the increase of light intensity or illumination time, the surface monomer conversion increased (P < 0.05). (3) The thickness of the oxygen inhibition layer was the thickest in the chemically-cured group [(40.27±2.81) μm](P < 0.05), the thinnest in the dual-cured group [(21.87±5.42) μm](P < 0.05) and light-cured group [(23.73±3.84) μm] was between them. With the increase of light intensity or illumination time, the thickness of the oxygen inhibition layer of resin cement decreased (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION When resin cement is exposed to oxygen, it will form an oxygen inhibition layer, its surface's inorganic filler is less, the surface monomer conversion is lower. The surface monomer conversion and the thickness of oxygen inhibition layer are affected by curing mode and illumination factors.
