Objective To investigate the effect of carbon dioxid insufflation on cerebral blood flow (CBF) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Thirty patients ASA grade Ⅰ- Ⅱ undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were selected. The values of jugular venous oxygen partial pressure(PjvO2 ) jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2 ), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), oxygen (PaO2) and saturation (SaO2 ) were measured before the insufflation, 10 min and 30 min after the insufnation, respectively. Results Compared with those before the insufflation, SjvO2 and PacO2 were increased significantly, and arterial--jugular venous oxygen content difference (Ca-jvDO2 ) decreased markedly 10 min and 30 min after insufflation (P

Objective To study the surgical treatment of pancreatolithiasis.Methods The clinical data of thirty-seven patients with pancreatolithiasis admitted to our hospital from 1994 to 2007 were reviewed.Results According to the results of imaging examination (BUS,CT,ERCP) and finding during surgery, pancreatolithiasis was classified into three types: TypeⅠ,the stones were mainly located in the head of pancreas, and Whipple procedure was the treatment of choice. TypeⅡ, the stones were mainly located in the body and tail of pancreas, and resection of the tail of pancreas alone or combined with splenectomy was the management of choice. TypeⅢ, the stones were diffusely scattered in the main duct from the head to tail of pancreas, and pancreatoduodenectomy,together with pancreatolithotomy and pancreatojejunostomy with wide anastomotic stoma was the choice of management. There was no mortality in this series. Within 2 weeks after treatment, symptoms ameliorated to different degrees in all the patients. Thirty one patients were followed up for 6 to 72 months, the results were satisfactory.Conclusions The individualized strategy, based on the type of stone location, is of great importance in the management of pancreatolithiasis. The key of surgical treatment of pancreatolithiasis is as follows: removal of pancreatoliths, excision of diseased pancreas, and adequate pancreatic drainage.

Using a novel hybrid technology combined differential ion mobility spectrometry ( DMS) with drift time ion mobility spectrometry DMS-IMS2 , we detected the typical chemical warfare agent simulants dimethyl methylphosphonate ( DMMP ) and methyl salicylate ( MS) . With carrier gas 800 mL/min and DMS RF voltage 1100 V, the chemical warfare agents DMMP and MS could be detected and characterized by DMS-IMS2 under DIMS mode. In addition, DMS-IMS2 is capable to monitor positive and negative ions of DMMP and MS simultaneously, and provides the two-dimensional separation parameters DMS compensation voltage ( CV) and IMS drift time ( Td ) , which provides more information for the identification of two chemical warfare agents. DMS-IMS2 has potential application in on-site detection and instrument miniaturization due to its advantages including small size, low power consumption and rapid response time.

Nuclear receptor transcription factors are ligand-activated proteins that control various biological events from cell growth and development to lipid metabolism, and energy and glucose homeostasis. Nuclear receptors are important drug targets for metabolic diseases. Liver X receptors (LXRs) are nuclear receptor transcription factors that play essential roles in regulation of cholesterol, triglyceride, fatty acid, and glucose homeostasis. LXR-deficient mice have shown the association of LXR-signaling pathway dysfunction with several human pathologies including atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, Alzheimer's disease and cancer. Thus, LXRs are promising pharmacological targets for these diseases. Synthetic LXR agonists may lower cholesterol, but increase triglyceride and induce fatty liver. The naturally occurring LXR ligands, with moderate activity, may serve as nutraceuticals for prevention or treatment of the disorders, while minimizing potential side effects. In this review, recent advances in natural LXR modulators are summarized including agonist, antagonist and the modulator of LXR pathway.

Objective To research the clinical effect of transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate (PKEP) in the treatment of high-risk huge benign prostate hyperplasia(BPH).Methods Fifty-two cases of high-risk huge(＞120 g) BPH in this hospita1 from May 2010 to May 2015 were selected and performed PKEP.International prostate symptoms score(IPSS),quality of life(QOL) score,residual urine(RUV) and biggest urine flow rate(Qmax) were observed after operation.Results The mean operation time was (130.12 ± 12.14) min,the mean intraroperation bleeding amount was (120.24±9.81) mL,the mean hospital stay was (14.52 ± 1.82)d,the mean weight of resected prostate tissues was (113.42 ± 12.53)g.Follow-up lasted for 6 months without serious complications.IPSS、QOL,RUV and Qmax after operation were improved obviously,the difference was statistically significant compared with before operation(P＜0.05).Conclusion PKEP is safe and effective in the treatment of high-risk huge BPH.

Objective To compare and analyze clinical effects of Bipolar transurethral plasma kinetic enucleation of prostate (PKEP) and transurethral resection of the prostate(TURP) on the treatment huge benign prostatic hyperplasia.Methods Nine-six cases of huge benign prostatic hyperplasia were selected in this hospital from March 2012 to March 2015.All the patients were divided into two groups according to different operation method,namely PKEP group and TURP group.Then the operative time,bleeding amount,bladder washing time,hospital stay,complications between two groups were compared,and the international prostate symptom score (IPSS),quality of life score (QOL),maximal urinary flow rate (Qmax),residual urine volume 6 months before and after operation were compared between the two groups.Results The operative time [(100.0 ± 3.5)min],bleeding amount [(161.0 ± 9.2) mL],bladder washing time[(15.2 ± 1.2) h],hospital stay[(10.8 ± 2.6) d],complications (6 cases) in PKEP group were less than that in the TURP group,which were(132.0±4.2)min,(198.0±12.1)mL,(36.8±1.3)h,(13.6±2.9)d,complications (18 cases)respectively(P＜0.05).The IPSS,QOL,Qmax,residual urine volume in both group were significantly improved compared with surgery before(P＜0.05),and there were no significant differences between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion PKEP and TURP both are effective surgeries for the treatment of huge BPH,while PKEP has short operation time,less intraoperarive bleeding and low incidence of complications,it is worthy of further clinical promotion.
