Objective To compare the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) versus intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) for suspected common bile duct stones (CBDS).Methods 324 patients with suspected CBDS who were admitted to the Hepatobiliary Pancreatic Surgery Department of Shaoxing People's Hospital between June 2010 and June 2014 were retrospectively studied.Either EUS or IOC was used and the diagnostic value of these two imaging modalities was compared.Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of IOC in diagnosing suspected CBDS were 90.6％, 98.4％, 9.5％ and 97.7％ respectively.Its consistency rate was 96.9％.The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of EUS in diagnosing suspected CBDS were 97.1％, 100％, 100％ and 99.1％ respectively.Its consistency rate was 99.3％.Conclusions In diagnosing suspected CBDS, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of EUS were significantly higher than IOC.When compared with IOC, EUS was more sensitive to detect occult CBDS and avoided unnecessary ERCP or bile duct exploration.Patients with negative EUS were less likely to have retained CBDS.

Pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma is a rare exocrine pancreatic cancer,and surgical treatment is the only promising method in survival time extension and life quality enhancement.In July 2013,1 patient with pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma and sarcomatoid change was admitted to the Shaoxing People's Hospital.A cauda pancreatis cystic nidus was detected by computed tomography 1 year ago,and no any other clinical symptoms were detected.The left upper quadrant of the patient was glutted and unwell,and the levels of CA19-9 and CA125 were 3 630 kU/L and 645 kU/L,respectively.The results of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed that a huge cystic and solid tumor was located between the cauda pancreatis,the stomach and the spleen;the tumor was mainly cystic and rooted in the tail of the pancreas;the spleen,stomach and surrounding tissues were infiltrated by the tumor.The results of postoperative pathological examination showed that the tumor was pancreatic adenocarcinoma with squamous epithelial differentiation and sarcomatoid change;the invasive squamous carcinoma dominated stomach wall,and the sarcomatoid change dominated spleen and lymph nodes with partial squamous epithelial differentiation and surrounding lymph nodes metastases.Although the surgical resection was complete and the postoperative thymosin injection and traditional Chinese medicine were implemented,tumor recurred at postoperative month 5,and the patient was dead due to cachexia and pernicious anemia at postoperative month 8.The prognosis of patients with pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma is poor,early detection and surgery are key points for curative effect enhancement.

The fabrication system for the electrochemical microfluidic device was set up based on the pulse driving and controlling of microfluids technology.The nano silver ink and glycerol solution were jetted on the glass substrates to form the microelectrode pattern and the liquid mold pattern for the microchannel.Then the microelectrode and microchannel were obtained through a sintering process and a molding process, respectively.The electrochemical mircrofluidic device was Finally prepared through a bonding process with the microelectrode and the microchannel.The influences of the system parameters on the formation of the droplet were studied, as well as the influences of the droplets diameter and the overlap on the formation of the liquid lines.The minimal width, the thickness and the resistance of the prepared microelectrode were 45 μm, 2.2 μm and 5.2 μΩ cm, respectively.The minimal width of the microelectrode was 35 μm and the surface was smooth.The electrochemical flow detection of glucose concentration was carried out with the device, and the results showed that the glucose concentration had a high linear correlation with the response current, which could be used in the quantitative detection of glucose concentration.The fabrication of the electrochemical microfluidic device based on the pulse driving and controlling of micro fluids technology has many advantages such as simple system structure, lower cost and higher accuracy of the micro droplet and can be used in the preparation of the devices in the biochemical analysis and biosensor areas.

Twenty five patients with incarcerated stone in distal common bile duct were treated with mini-blasting lithotrite under choledochoscope from June 2008 to September 2010.The clinical data of patients were retrospectively analyzed.The successful rate of surgery was 100％.The clearance rate of first procedure was 92％ (23/25),2 cases underwent second procedure and all were successful.There were no severe operative complications including bile duct injury,perforation,hemorrhage or bile leakage.Miniblasting lithotrite is a safe and effective method for treating incarcerated stone in distal common bile duct.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and technique in laparoscopic cholecystectomy and exploration of common bile duct (CBD) in patients who have previous subtotal gastrectomy.Methods From January 2001 to October 2010,22 patients who had a history of subtotal gastrectomy received laparoscopic cholecystectomy and CBD exploration in our hospital.In addition,these patients received cholangioscopic lithotomy,electrohydraulic lithotripsy,T-tube drainage,or primary suturing of the CBD wound.Results The procedures were completed successfully in 18 patients.In 4 patients,conversion to laparotomy was necessary because of multiple stones in a stenosed CBD (n=1),severely congested CBD wall with edema (n=1),CBD carcinoma associated with impacted stones (n=1) or Mirzzi syndrome (n =1).T tube drainage was employed in 16 patients,and primary suturing in 2 patients at the end of the operation.There was no hemorrhage,biliary leakage or abdominal infection.At a mean follow-up of 13 (range 3 to 60) months there was no residual stone,biliary stenosis or cholangitis.In 3 patients Stone recurred,and another 3 patients were lost to follow-up.Conclusions A history of subtotal gastrectomy is not a contradiction to laparoscopic cholecystectomy and CBD exploration.With choledocoscopy,surgery can be safe and feasible even for patients with previous gastectomy.

Objective To evaluate the effects of therapeutic hypothermia on both neurological status and survival rate in patients after cardiac arrest.Methods The data were searched from MEDLINE,PubMed,EMBASE,Cochrane Library,Wanfang database,CNKI and CBM.The randomized and controlled trials were selected for evaluating the main outcomes of neurological status and survival rate in patients after cardiac arrest.Meta-analysis was carried out by using Review Manger 5.0 software.The results were expressed in risk ratio (RR) for dichotomous outcomes data with 95％ confidence intervals (CI),and P ＜ 0.05 was considered to be significant.Results Eight randomized controlled clinical trials with a total of 1 512 patients met our inclusion criteria.The overall risk ratio of favorable neurological status was 1.34 (95％ CI:1.01-1.78,P ＜0.05) and of survival rate was 1.09 (95％ CI:0.98-1.20,P ＞0.05) with therapeutic hypothermia compared with controls,however,when the applications of conventional cooling trials were analyzed,the risk ratio was 1.51 (95％ CI:1.22-1.87,P ＜0.01) and 1.36 (95％CI:1.13 -1.63,P ＜ 0.01),respectively.Conclusions Patients treated with therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest had more favorable neurological status compared with the controls.There was no benefit of therapeutic hypothermia to survival rate identified.Compare with conventional cooling methods,the therapeutic hypothermia could improve neurological status and survival rate in patients after cardiac arrest.

Objective To analyze the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI(DCE-MRI) parameters of Extended Tofts and Exchange model in the differential diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and hepatic metastases of colorectal cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis of 40 pathologically confirmed cases was conducted , including 25 cases of HCC and 15 cases of hepatic metastases of colorectal
cancer,all patients underwent DCE-MRI. Applying liver double blood supplement model , and respectively using Extended Tofts two-compartment model and Exchange model liver microvascular permeability parameters [volume transfer constant of the contrast agent(Ktrans), efflux rate from extracellular extravascular space to plasma(Kep), extravascular extracellular volume fraction(Ve)and blood plasma space volume fraction (Vp)] and the perfusion parameter hepatic arterial perfusion index(HPI) in the lesion parenchyma of HCC and metastases were calculated. We used t test to compare the differences of the parameters measured from the two types of tumors , statistically significant parameters between HCC and metastases were screened which compared with the gold standard of pathological findings in order to draw the ROC curves to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of different model parameters, using χ2 test compared the diagnostic accuracy of optimal parameters between the two models. Results By using Extended Tofts and Exchange model , Ktrans value of HCC were (0.661 ± 0.402)/min and (0.604 ± 0.316)/min respectively, Ktrans value of hepatic metastases were (0.196±0.175)/min and (0.179±0.135)/min respectively;Vp value of HCC were (0.334±0.217) and (0.294± 0.098), Vp value of hepatic metastases were (0.089 ± 0.015) and (0.089 ± 0.022),respectively; HPI value of HCC were (0.680±0.281) and (0.769±0.245) , HPI value of hepatic metastases were (0.326±0.216), (0.373± 0.298), respectively. There were significant differences between HCC and hepatic metastases in Ktrans, Vp and HPI values in both models(P<0.05). There was not statistically significant difference between HCC and hepatic metastases in Kep, Ve values(P>0.05).Drawn ROC curves of Ktrans, Vp, HPI , the Ktrans value (area under the curve of 0.869) among Extended Tofts model parameters was selected as optimal parameter to identify HCC and hepatic metastases; the HPI value (area under the curve of 0.845) among Exchange model parameters was selected as optimal parameter to differentiate these two types of tumors.The diagnostic accordance rate of Extended Tofts model and Exchange model were 80.0%(32/40), 82.5%(33/40), respectively ; There was no significant difference between them(χ2=0.082,P=0.775). Conclusions Parameters including Ktrans, Vp, HPI of the Extended Tofts model and Exchange model in DCE-MRI perfusion can be used to identify HCC and hepatic metastases of colorectal cancer. Among these parameters, Ktrans of Extended Tofts model and HPI of Exchange model have higher diagnostic value in differentiating HCC and hepatic metastases of colorectal cancer.

Objective To observe the impact of mild hypothermia (MH)on the reactive oxygen species (ROS)and expression of cacpase-3mRNA and light chain 3 (LC3,a subunit of immunoglobulin)in hippocampus nerve cells of rats after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods A total of 65 healthy male Sprague Dawley (SD)adult rats were randomly (random number)divided into 2 groups:blank control group (n =5)and CPR group (n =60).Cardiac arrest (CA)was induced in rats of CPR group by asphyxia.The survival rats after CPR were randomly (random number)divided into 2 groups:normothermia CPR group (NT)and hypothermia CPR group (HT).Homeothermia of 37 ℃ was maintained in NT group after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC),and hypothermal intervention to 32 ℃ was carried out in HT group for 4 hours immediately after ROSC.Both NT group and HT group were then randomly divided to 2 subgroups 12 hours and 24 hours after ROSC (NT-12,NT-24,HT-12,HT-24 subgroups).During observation,the neurological deficit (NDS)of rats was scored,then the bilateral hippocampi were obtained from rats'head,and monoplast suspension of fresh hippocampus tissue was made immediately to determine the level of intracellular ROS by flow cytometry.Transmission electron microscope was used to observe the ultrastructure changes of cellular nucleus and mitochondria.Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)was used to determine the expression of caspase-3mRNA and Western-blotting (WB)was used to determine the level of LC3 in frozen hippocampus tissue.Measured data were analyzed with paired sample T test and One-Way ANOVA.Results Of 60 rats with CA,44 were successfully resuscitated (73%)and 33 survived until the end of the experiment (55%).The NDSs of rats in NT and HT groups were significantly reduced in comparison with BC group (F=8.107,P<0.05),while the NDSs of rats in HT-12 subgroup and HT-24 subgroup were significantly increased in comparison with NDSs of rats in NT-12 subgroup and NT-24 subgroup,respectively (t=9.692,P<0.01;t=14.374,P<0.01 ).The ROS in hippocampus nerve cells of rats in NT group and HT group were significantly increased compared to BC group (F=16.824,P<0.05 ),whereas the ROS in HT-12 and HT-24 subgroups were significantly reduced compared to ROS in NT-12 and NT-24 subgroups,respectively (t =9.836,P<0.01;t =7.499,P<0.01).The expressions of caspase-3 mRNA in hippocampus nerve cells of rats in NT and HT groups were significantly increased compared to BC group (F=24.527,P<0.05),while the expressions of caspase-3 mRNA in rats of HT-12 and HT-24 subgroups were significantly reduced compared to NT-12 and NT-24 subgroups,respectively (t =6.935,P <0.01;t =4.317,P <0.01 ).The level of LC3B-II/I in hippocampus nerve cells of rats in NT and HT groups were significantly increased compared to BC group (F=6.584,P<0.05),while the levels of LC3B-II/I in rats of HT-12 and HT-24 subgroups were significantly reduced compared to NT-12 and NT-24 subgroups,respectively (t=10.836,P<0.001;t=2.653,P=0.02).Ultrastructure damage of nucleus and mitochondria in NT group was more evident compared to BC group,and eumorphism of nucleus and mitochondria were maintained in rats of HT group compared to NT group.Conclusions The mild hypothermia reduced the injury of nerve cells and improved the neurological function of rats survived from cardiac arrest likely by reducing ROS production of nerve cells and inhibition the expression of caspase-3mRNA and lowering the level of LC3 leading to reducing cellular apoptosis and massive autophagy in rats survived from cardiac arrest after CPR.
