Objective To evaluate and verify the preventive and therapeutic effects of electroacupuncture (EA) plus pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) in treating mild-moderate female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Method By adopting a single-blind randomized controlled design, eighty-two SUI patients were randomized into an observation group of 40 cases and a control group of 42 cases. The observation group was intervened by EA plus PFMT, while the control group only received PFMT. Before the treatment and after 4-week treatment, the 1 h urine leakage amount, Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICI-Q-SF) and improvement rate were evaluated in the two groups, to analyze the effects of the two methods in improving mild-moderate SUI. Result For mild SUI patients, the 1 h urine leakage amount and ICI-Q-SF score dropped significantly after the treatment in the observation group (P<0.05), and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05). For moderate SUI patients, the 1 h urine leakage amount and ICI-QSF score dropped significantly in both groups after the intervention (P<0.05), the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05), and the improvement rate in the observation group was markedly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion EA plus PFMT caneffectively improve the urine leakage and urination in mild-moderate SUI patients. EA plus PFMT can effectively prevent the aggravation of moderate female SUI, and its effect is better than PFMT alone.

Objective Toinvestigatethevalueofimagingdiagnosisofthe lymphangioleiomyomatosis( LAM ).MethodsFifteen patients with LAM confirmed by pathological assessment were analyzed retrospectively for radiologic findings.They had chest radiograph, chest highresolution CT (HRCT),abdominal CT, direct lymphangiography(DLG), chest CT and abdominal CT after DLG.Results Chest radiograph findings included normal (1),increasing of lung markings (3),disseminated honeycomb or reticular pattern ( 11 ), pneumothorax ( 2 ), and pleural effusion ( 14 ). Chest conventional CT and HRCT showed typical imaging manifestation of PLAM in all cases, including sporadic or disseminated cysts in bilateral lungs. According to the grading standard of pulmonary disease made by Avila et at, there were 3 cases in grade Ⅰ , 5 cases in grade Ⅱ and 7 cases in grade Ⅲ . Fourteen of 15 patients with LAM had positive abdominal CT findings in retroperitoneum and pelvic cavity. Common abdominal CT findings included cystic lymphangioma in 9 of 14 patients, lymphangiomyoma in 13 and both coexisting in 7.One of the14patients alsohadhepaticlipomaandangiomyolipomas.Onepatienthadrenal angiomyolipomas; and one patient had hysteromyoma. All 15 cases underwent DLG, 1 cases had lymphatic obstruction in the lumbar 3 level, the remaining 14 cases had varying degrees of thoracic duct stenosis, or obstruction. Neck trunk, subclavian trunk and bronchial trunk showed lymphatic reflux. On post-DLG CT,thoracic duet outlet obstruction was not demonstrated in 3 cases, the remaining 12 cases showed thoracic outlet obstruction, consistent with the DLG findings.Conclusion HRCT is a useful diagnostic method showing characteristic findings of PLAM. MSCT can help to detect abdominal LAM. DLG and MSCT after DLG have value in displaying obstruction site of thoracic duct or lymphatic trunks and provide guidance for operative treatment.

BACKGROUND: Ganglioside (Gls) is a kind of N-acetylneuraminatecontaining glycosphingolipid, which is abundant in neural tissues and exerts neuroprotective roles, and has been found its changes in content and composition pattern after cerebral ischemia or hypoxia diseases.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen on brain gangliosides after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion and explore the possible mechanism of hyperbaric oxygen treatment to ameliorate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion damage.DESIGN: Randomized-control observation.SETTING: Department of Hyperbaric Oxygen, Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences and Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Basic College, Capital University of Medical Sciences.MATERIALS: Animal models were established at Department of Hyperbaric Oxygen, Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences (Key Laboratory of Beijing) from March to April 2002. All indexes were determined at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Basic College, Capital University of Medical Sciences. A total of 54 SD male rats were selected and randomly divided into 9 groups: shamoperated group; ischemia/reperfusion 6, 24, 48 and 96 hours group; and hyperbaric oxygen 6, 24, 48 and 96 hours group with 6 rats in each group.METHODS: Animal models with cerebral ischemic/reperfusion were established in the other 8 groups, except the sham-operation group. Global cerebral ischemia was induced by a four-vessel occlusion and reperfusion allowed after 20-minute ischemia. The rats in sham-operation group were operated in the same way except of arterial occlusion. The rats in the HBO group were placed in experimental animal chamber. After 5-minute wash by pure oxygen, the pressure of oxygen cabins was increased to 0.1 MPa in 5 minutes and kept stable for 45 minutes, then decreased to ambient level within 10 minutes. The rats in the HBO groups were treated once by hyperbaric oxygen at reperfusion 3, 24, 48 and 96 hours respectively; while the rats in the ischemia/reperfusion group and sham-operation group were placed in normal atmospheric environment. The rats of HBO and ischemia/reperfusion groups were killed by decapitation at the 6th, 24th, 48th and 96th hours respectively, and the brains removed quickly. Gls and its percentage content in each group were detected with high performance thin-layer chromatography plate.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Total content of gangliosde in the whole brain tissue of rats and its percentage content.RESULTS: Totally 54 rats were involved in the result analysis without drop out. ①The contents of Gangliosides in HBO groups at 24 and 48 hours was significantly higher than those in sham-operation group and ischemia/reperfusion group at corresponding time phase (F=12.730,122.246,P < 0.01), but there was no significant difference between ischemia/reperfusion and sham-operation groups (P > 0.05). ② N-acetylneuraminosylgalactosyl-N-acetylgalactosaminyl- (N-acetylneuraminosylα2→8- N-acetylneuraminosyl) -galactosylglucosylceramide (GT1b) proportion in the ischemia/reperfusion 24 hours group was lower markedly than that in the S-O (F=13.575,P < 0.01); Both galactosyl-N-acetylgalactosaminyl- (N-acetylneuraminosyl- α2→8-N-acetylneuraminosyl) - galactosylglucosylceramide (GD1b) and galactosyl- N-acetylgalactosaminyl-(N-acetylneuraminosyl)galactosylglucosylceramide (GM1) in the reperfusion 48 hours group were lower than those in the sham-operation group (F= 4.015,3.979,P < 0.05); (N-acetylneuraminosyl)galactosylglucosylceramide (GM3)in ischemia/reperfusion 24 hours group was much higher than that in sham-operation and any other ischemia/reperfusion groups (F=21.450,P< 0.01 ); An unknown increase of GM3 was found again at the 96th hour;③GM1and GM3 proportion in the hyperbaric oxygen group was higher than that of sham-operation group at the 24th hour (F=3.970,21.450,P< 0.05, < 0.01), and all of GD1a, GD1b and GT1b were lower than that in the sham-operation group at the same times (F= 13.575,5.745,8.783, P< 0.05-0.01), but GT1b was remarkably higher than that in ischemia/reperfusion group (F=8.783 ,P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: The pattern of brain gangliosides changed after transient whole cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. The new mechanism of neuron damage after transient whole cerebral ischemia/reperfusion might be the decreasing of GT1b, GD1b and GM1 with increasing of GM3 proportion. The hyperbaric oxygen treatment could ameliorate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion damage by increasing total gangliosides content and GM1 proportion and accelerating GT1b restoration to normal level. It is unknown that the effect of percentage content of GD1a and GD1b decreased.

Objective To evaluate the effect of modified Maze lines plus pulmonary vein (PV) isolation created by radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) on atrial wall guided by a novel geometry mapping system in the treatment of elderly patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). Methods After regular electrophysiological study, transseptal punctures were achieved twice with Swartz L1 and R1 sheaths. PV angiographies were conducted to evaluate their orifices and branches. A balloon electrode array catheter with 64 electrodes was put in the middle of the left atrium. Atrium geometry was constructed using Ensite 3000 Navx system. Two RFCA lesion loops and three lines (modified Maze) were created on left and right atrial walls. Each lesion point was ablated for 30 seconds with preset temperature 50 (ae) and energy 30W. The disappearance or 80% decrease of the amplitude of target atrial potential and 10 to 20(|), decrease of ablation impedance were used as an index of effective ablation. Results A total of 11 patients (7 male and 4 female, mean age, 68.7±5.1 years) were enrolled. PAF history was 7.9±4.5 years. PAF could not be prevented by mean 3.1±1.6 antiarrhythmic agents in 6.3±3.4 years. None of the patients had complications with structural heart disease or stroke. Left atrial diameter was 41.3±3.6 mm and LVEF was 59.2±3.7% on echocardiography. Two loops and three lines were completed with 67.8±13.1 (73-167) lesion points. Altogether 76-168 (89.4±15.3) lesion points were created in each patient. PAF could not be provoked by rapid burst pacing up to 600 beat per minute delivered from paroxysmal coronary sinus electrode pair.Complete PV electrical isolation was confirmed by three-dimensional activation mapping. Mean procedure time was 2.7±0.6 hours and fluoroscopy time was 17.8±9.4 minutes. Patients were discharged with oral aspirin and without antiarrhythmic agents. During follow up of 6.5±1.8 months, seven patients were PAF symptom free (63.6%). PAF attacks were decreased more than 70% in two patients (18.2%). PAF frequency did not change in another two patients (18.2%). Conclusions Ensite 3000 Navx guided modified Maze lines plus PV isolation on the atrial wall is safe and feasible in the elderly patients. It has the advantages of exact procedural endpoint, shorter X-ray exposure, fewer complications and satisfied long-term effect PAF control.
