Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2015;22(4):489-491
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of TAPP surgery in inguinal hernia repair for the elderly by different mesh materials.Methods 24 elderly patients (32 cases) with inguinal hernia were randomly divided into the two groups.The control group was repaired by the braid mesh,while the other 16 cases in the observation group were repaired by the three dimension mesh.The operative indicators,the VAS pain score,the incidence rate of complications and recrudesce rate were compared between the two groups.Results The operative time,time length of staying and costs of the two groups were close,no statistical differences were found (all P > 0.05) ; VAS scores of postoperative 24h,48h,72h of the observation group were (0.97 ± 0.76) points,(0.62 ± 0.55) points,(0.49 ± 0.37) points respectively,which were significantly lower than those of the control group (t =6.331,6.031,5.882,all P <0.05).The incidence rate of complication in control group was 16.67% (2/12),no statistical difference was found between two groups (x2 =0.000,P > 0.05).No recurrence was found in two groups.Conclusion The three dimension mesh and the braid mesh in TAPP are safe and effective,the three dimension mesh has better performance in pain.
2.The mechanism about the role of RhoA/ROCK singal pathway in portal hypertension
Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2014;20(3):235-240
The hepatic portal system is a unique circulatory system that connects two systems of capillary beds ; one in the wall of the small intestine and spleen and the second in the sinusoidal area of the liver.Therefore,alterations in vasoreactivity (vasodilation and vasoconstriction) play a critical role in the pathophysiology of portal hypertension (PHT).The RhoA/ ROCK pathway exerts an important role in the Ca2+-independent mechanism in vascular smooth muscle (VSM).This mechanism not only modulates the constriction of intrahepatic small vessels and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) but also effects the hyperdynamic circulation due to vascular hyporesponsiveness.Understanding the detailed mechanism and role of the RhoA/ROCK signal pathway in portal hypertension could be of great utility in providing a new target for portal hypertension therapy.

Objective: To preliminarily explore the clinical characteristics and gender difference of patients with variant angina (VA) in China. Methods: A total of 312 patients with spontaneous attack of VA admitted in our hospital from 2003-01 to 2009-12 without stimulation test were retrospectively studied. The clinical features were compared between male and female patients to reveal the similarities and differences of VA by genders. Results: The predilection of VA was in male gender (274/312, 87.8%), the common risk factors including smoking, hypertension and hyperlipidemia; 55/312 (17.6%) patients had allergy history. There were 59/312 (18.9%) patients combining arrhythmia while VA attack; coronary angiography (CAG) found that 155/283 (54.8%) patients were with ifxed coronary stenosis and 22/312 (7.1%) combining coronary myocardial bridge. Nitrates, calcium antagonist and stent implantation may effectively control VA attack. Compared with male, female patients had the lower ratio of smokers (10.5% vs 78.8%),P<0.01, higher ratios of family history of coronary artery disease (CAD) (31.6% vs 11.3%),P<0.01, ventricular tachycardia (13.2% vs 3.6%)P<0.05 and ventricular ifbrillation (7.9% vs 1.8%),P<0.05. Conclusion: VA is a cardiac ischemia caused by coronary artery spasm with high incidence for combining arrhythmia, without in time treatment it may incur myocardial infarction even sudden death. VA patients should receive routine CAG and stent implantation according to the severity of stenosis. Female patients were with less smokers while higher ratios in family history of CAD, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular ifbrillation.

Objective To investigate the effect of acute irradiation by high power millimeter wave on the pathological changes of mouse lung tissue. Methods The BALB/c mice were vertically placed under the high power millimeter wave equipment with working frequency of 34. 1 GHz, and the mean output power were 5,10 and 12 W while the distance between the animal and the bottom of the irradiation horn were 10 mm and 20 mm, respectively. The mice were tied on the platform and continuously received irradiation until death. After immediate dissection, the mouse lung was quickly rinsed with 0.9% NaCl solution, fixed in 10% formaldehyde solution and mounted for paraffin section. After HE staining and image taken with a CCD camera, the Image Pro Plus software and quantitative image analysis by combining the mean optical density and area was used to determine the pathological injuries of the lung. Result Using the HA23. 16 and HA9. 92 pyramid horns with different physical parameter, the mice exposed to irradiation with high mean power of 12 W were dead most quickly, the death time was only about 110 s. Meanwhile, the death time was about 30 min after irradiation with the mean power of 5 W. There was significant hemorrhage in the mouse lung with high power millimeter irradiation, although the hemorrhage degree was different under different irradiation parameters. When the mean power were 10 and 12 W.the hemorrhage degree of lung was extremely high, where the bronchia and blood vessel of lung was markedly broken. A lot of cells of bronchia had been released. However, when the mean power was 5 W, the hemorrhage degree of lung was less observed, while the bronchia and blood vessels had not severe fracture. Conclusions High power millimeter wave wave irradiation has remarkable effect on mice lung. The damage degree of lung tissue is highly correlated with the mean power of millimeter wave irradiation. As the high power millimeter used in this study could result in significant thermal effect, the acute heat-induced response might lead to animal death by causing serious lung injury.
