Objective To investigate the technique and instrument improvement of laparoscopic choledocholithotomy with T-tube drainage. Methods A total of 42 cases of gall stones complicated with common bile duct stones entered the study. During the operation, we exposed the common bile duct before the removal of the gall bladder, opened the common bile duct by a self-made bile duct scalpel, removed the stones by open instruments laparoscopically, and performed choledochofiberscopic examinations and T-tube drainages. Results All the 42 operations were successfully accomplished without the conversion to open surgery. The operation time (exclusive of that of LC) was 80～180 min (mean, 96 min). All the patients got out of bed and received liquids within 24 hours after the surgery. The postoperative hospital stay was 5～9 days (mean, 6 days). The T-tube was removed 3 weeks after the operation in the absence of residual stones or stenosis of bile duct under T-tube choledochography. Follow-up for 6～48 months (mean, 23 months) in 38 cases found no recurrence of stones or biliary tract symptoms. Conclusions The modified laparoscopic choledocholithotomy with T-tube drainage, which shortens the operation time, is an effective and safe method for the treatment of common bile duct stones.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the pathogenic distribution and antimicrobial resistance in respiratory ward and provide the rational information to use antibiotics reasonably. METHODS All pathogens isolated from patients in a respiratory ward from 2005 to 2007 and drug susceptibility results were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Totally 264 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated,in which 68 strains of Gram-positive bacteria,165 strains of Gram-negative bacteria and 31 strains of fungi.MRSA prevalence was 77.1% and showed a trend of increase.No vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or Enterococcus was detected.The resistance rate of Streptoccocus pneumoniae to penicillin,erythromycin and levofloxacin was 44.4-66.7%.Enterobacter and Acinetobacter baumannii showed stable susceptibility to imipenem.Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were relatively susceptible to cefoperazone /sulbactam,amikacin,gentamicin,piperacillin/tazobactam,ceftazidine,cefepime,cefoperazone and imipenem. CONCLUSIONS The changes in pathogens and antibiotic resistance in the respiratory ward are consistent with the surveillance data in this country,Gram-negative bacteria are still the most common pathogens and the serious degree of bacterial drug resistance is increasing.Our data are useful for the guidance of rational use of antibiotics.

Objective To explore drug resistance and distribution of multidrug-resistant(MDR)Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tuberculosis)in a county-level hospital,so as to strengthen the prevention and control of health-care-associated infection with M.tuberculosis .Methods Specimens with positive sputum smear were performed M. tuberculosis culture and drug resistance testing,and distribution of MDR tuberculosis patients in the departments before isolation were investigated retrospectively.Results Of 488 patients with tuberculosis,254 were positive for sputum smear,122 M.tuberculosis strains were isolated from positive sputum smear patients,120 isolates were per-formed drug susceptibility testing,results revealed that 86 isolates were drug-resistant strains,46 of which were monodrug-resistant,40 were MDR.Of MDR strains,16 were all resistant to isoniazide,rifampicin,streptomycin, and ethambutol.The percentage of monodrug-resistance,MDR,pandrug resistance was 9.43%,8.20%,and 3.28% respectively.Medical imaging department,ultrasound department,and respiratory disease department were the main units of M.tuberculosis exposure.Conclusion The percentage of MDR M.tuberculosis is high among M. tuberculosis ,surveillance should be intensified,so as to prevent the transmission in hospital.

In the present study, stereological analysing methods were used to measure the nucleus, cytoplasm and secretive granules of mast cells in connective tissue and mucosa. It was found that there existed significant difference between them in nucleus/cytoplasm ratio, volume density, size and sphericity of granules. These quantitative results might be served as the main morphological parameters of distinguishing the two types of mast cells.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the pathogenic distribution and antimicrobial resistance in our hospital in 2006 and provide the rational information to use antibiotics reasonably.METHODS Flora cultivation and isolation were operated with the methods described by the National Clinical Laboratory Operational Regulations.Flora was identified with the VITEK32 automatic identifier,and bacteria-susceptibility test was operated with Kirby-Bauer method.RESULTS Totally 967 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated;they comprised 326 strains of Gram-positive bacteria,541 strains of Gram-negative bacteria and 100 strains of fungi.The main Gram-positive microorganisms included Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis,et al.The main Gram-negative microorganisms included Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Acinetobacter baumannii,Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Pseudomonas aerugiinosa,et al.Specimen samples mainly isolated from sputum(43.85%),urine(22.34%),and secretion(10.03%).G+ microorganisms were sensitive to nitrofurantoin and vancomycin.G-microorganisms except A.baumannii and S.maltophilia were sensitive to cefoxitin,piperacillin/tazobactam,imipenem,and amikacin;the average resistant rates of A.baumannii and S.maltophilia to antibiotics were 68.20% and 64.43%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS The severe degree of bacterial multi-drug resistance is increasing,it is urgent to carry out surveillance of bacterial resistance for reasonabe use of antibiotics and decreasing the morbidity rate and the fatality rate.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical outcomes of posterior lumbar interbody fusion using BTwin expandable spinal spacer with microendoscopic discectomy (MED) for lumbar disc herniation accompanying degenerative instability.MethodsFrom March 2006 to May 2010,87 patients with lumbar disc heniation (only one level) accompanying degenerative instability were managed with posterior lumbar interbody fusion using B-Twin with MED,includeing 49 males and 38 females with an average of 47.6 years(range,37-65).Objective level located in L3,4 in 2 cases,L4,5 in 43,and L5S1 in 41.The patients were treated with single BTwin(Single group,n=51) and double B-Twin(Double group,n=36).Clinical outcomes were evaluated with surgical time,blood loss,visual analogue scale (VAS) scores,Oswestry disability questionnaire (ODI),and the pre- and post-operative disk space heights.ResultsThe patients were followed up for an average of 35.8months (range,12-46).All the patients felt the low back pain and radiation pain disappeared or relieved apparently.The mean preoperative ODI and VAS scores decreased from 78％±3％ to 18％±3％,and (8.70±11.3)to (0.65±10.48) at the final follow-up respectively.Disc space increased from a pre-operative height of (8.76±1.3) mm to a post-operative of (11.8±0.6) mm.ODI,VAS and the disk space heights in all patient showed statistical significance,which revealed no statistical significance between the two groups.However,the operation time,blood loss were statistical difference between the two groups.All the patients achieved solid union or probable union at a mean time of 5.6 months (range,3.9-8.6).ConclusionPosterior lumbar interbody fusion using B-Twin with MED can obtain satisfactory outcomes in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation accompanying degenerative instability.Single B-Twin can get similar clinical outcomes,but shorter surgical time,less blood loss,and less medical costs.

An approach was proposed to evaluate preparation technology by means of fingerprint-peak matching technology of high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD).Similarity and hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) were applied to identify the 15 batches of Xiaochaihu granules from different manufacturers and our laboratory,and peak pattern matching between the composite formulae and Radix Bupleuri Chinensis,which was one of the main ingredients of Xiaochaihu granules,was utilized to evaluate the preparation technology of Xiaochaihu granules via the indexes of the relative deviation of retention time (RT) and UV spectrum feature similarity of their corresponding peaks.Eleven matching peaks were found between Xiaochalhu granules and Radix Bupleuri Chinensis.However,the saikosaponin A and saikosaponin D,which are the important active components in Radix Bupleuri Chinensis,were not found in Xiaochaihu granules from any manufacturers.The peak areas of 11 characteristic peaks of Xiaochaihu granules samples formed a matrix of 11 × 15.The result of HCA showed that Xiaochaihu granules samples were divided into four kinds of category.Xiaochaihu granules samples from the same manufacturer were basically clustered of the same category.The results suggested that the saikosaponin A and saikosaponin D are prone to structural transformation under the condition of decoction and in the presence of the organic acidic components.These active components,existing in raw herb,might transform to a series of non-active secondary saikosaponin due to unfavourable preparation technology.So the conventional decoction-based preparation technology of Xiaochaihu granules might greatly affect its quality and therapeutic effectiveness. This study demonstrates that fingerprint-peak matching technology can not only be used for quality control of this composite formulae,but also provide some guidance for preparation technology of Xiaochaihu granules.

Objective To investigate the effects of the interaction between human hepatoma cells and hepatic stellate cells on their growth state,and study its role of interaction on the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods Human hepatoma cell line HepG2 and hepatic stellate cell line hepatic stallate cells (HSC)-T6 were used and the methods including methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay,flow cytometry (FCM) analysis,immunohistochemistry,and electron microscopy were employed in this experiment.The effects of conditioned medium (CM) of HepG2 on the activation and proliferation of HSC were explored.The effects of activated HSC CM on HepG2 proliferation were investigated.The uhrastructural changes of the two co-cultured cells were observed.Results MTT assay result showed that HepG2/HSC CM could promote HSC/HepG2 proliferation.FCM result demonstrated that HepG2/HSC CM could influence the cell cycle distribution in HSC/HepG2.Immunohistochemistry exhibited that after the treatment of HepG2/HSC CM,the expression ofα-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in HSC and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in HepG2 were increased.When HepG2 and HSC were co-cultured,the ultrastructure of HSC displayed an activated feature.Conclusions HepG2 cells can induce the activation and proliferation of HSC,and the activated HSC can also stimulate the proliferation of HepG2.Interaction between hepatoma cells and hepatic stellate cells may play an important role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.

The therapeutic effectiveness of nutritional support in the treatment of severe chronic hepatitis and posthepatitic cirrhosis was evaluated. 143 patients with severe chronic hepatitis and 83 with posthepatitic cirrhosis were evaluated with SGA for assessing the nutritional status before the treatment. Patients with severe chronic hepatitis were divided into three groups: group A subject to enteral nutrition (EN) and parenteral nutrition (PN), group B subject to comprehensive treatment (CT)+PN; group C subject to CT+EN. The patients with posthepatitic cirrhosis were divided into two groups: group D receiving CT and group E receiving CT+PN+EN. The function of liver and kidney and nutritional status were monitored to assess the therapy in 6 weeks. The results showed before treatment, over 90 % patients had moderate to severe malnutrition. After nutritional support, the liver function (ALT, T-bil) and nutritional status (TP, TC) in group A was improved significantly as compared with that in groups B and C (P<0.05). Compared with group D, the values of TP and Alb were increased significantly in group E (P<0.05), but the levels of ALT, AST and T-bil had no obvious change. It was suggested that most patients with severe chronic hepatitis or posthepatitic cirrhosis had malnutrition to varying degrees. The nutritional support treatment could obviously improve the nutritional status of these patients, and was helpful to ameliorate the liver function of the patients with severe chronic hepatitis. Among the methods of nutritional support treatment, PN combined with EN had the best effectiveness.
