Objective: To investigate the relationship among personality traits,motive of Internet use and tendency of Internet Addiction.Methods: Scale of Internet use,NEO-PI-R and Chinese Internet Addiction Scale(CIAS) were administrated to 207 university and high school students.Results: ①Tendency of Internet addiction was significantly correlated positively with openness(O)and agreeableness(A),and negatively with neuroticism(N).②Tendency of Internet addiction showed significant difference among motive of entertainment,study,information and intercommunication,and those who had higher tendency of Internet addiction would have stronger motive.③Internet addiction could be validly predicted by motive of information,entertainment and personality traits of neuroticism(N).Conclusion: Tendency of Internet addiction is affected by personality traits and motive of Internet use.

It is a consensus to place stent after cutting bile duct in the hepatobiliary surgery in the past.However,as the development of bile physiological research and surgical technique,especially the raise of medical concepts of rapid recovery,the negative effects which are caused by the placement of stent have been taken seriously gradually.Up to now,whether the stent should be placed after the bile duct is cut has no definite answer yet.

Long-term outcomes of surgical bile duct injury (BDI) repair are affected by multiple factors, such as surgeon's experience, severity of BDI, pathological changes of the proximal duct, and the manner and timing of surgical repair. However, the timing of BDI repair is still controversial still. In this article, the authors reviewed the correlation of pathophysiologic changes of the proximal duct, repair timing and outcome discussed in English references. It was shown that pathophysiologic changes of the proximal duct are a major contributor to the timing of BDI repair.

Objective To evaluate the effect of omeprazole in preventing treatment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage with stress ulcer bleeding. Methods A total of 100 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were treated with conventional therapy including dehydration, antihypertensive and supporting treatment. The patients were randomly divided into omeprazole group(n=50) and control group( n = 50). The control group received conventional therapyonly, while the omeprazole group received additional omeprazole 40mg, iv, qd, for 14d. Results Omeprazole group stress ulcer 6 eaess(12.0% ) was significantly lower than the control group 12 cases(24.0% );two groups stress ulcer incidence of severity are increasing with the increase of the disease; the mortalities of cerbral hemorrhage were 6.0 % in the omeprazole group and 16.0 % in the control group and the difference had significant meaning(P＞0.05). Conclusion Omeprazole has significant beneficial effect in preventing upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage after hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To appraise the diagnostic capability of laparoscopic ultrasonography (LUS) for urinary system injury induced by laparoscopic surgery in goats. Methods Animal models of different types of urinary system injury at different sites were established in five goats. One goat without injury was set as a negative control. LUS was used to examine the animals following randomization and single-blind principles. Results The sensitivity of LUS was 76.9% (10/13),specificity was 100%,and the false-negative rate was 23.1% (3/13). No false-positive results were detected in this study. The sham injury was accurately detected through LUS. The scan time of LUS ranged from 19 to 25 min with a mean of 21 min. Conclusions LUS is of value in the diagnosis of urinary system injury.

Objective To explore the feasibility of endoscopic thyroidectomy through the approach of areola of breasts.Methods Endoscopic thyroidectomy via areola of breasts approach was carried out in 26 cases from March 2003 to September 2005.Thyroid nodules were right-sided in 13 cases,left-sided in 10 cases,bilateral in 1 case,and not palpable in 2 cases of hyperthyroidism(grade 1).There were 9 cases of solitary nodule and 15 cases of multiple nodules.The nodules were cystic in 5 cases,solid in 13 cases,and mixed in 6 cases,with 1~4 cm in diameter.Preoperative diagnoses included 9 cases of thyroid adenoma,15 cases of nodular goiter,and 2 cases of primary hyperthyroidism.Results The thyroidectomy was performed successfully under endoscope in 25 cases,with an operation time of 50~210 min(mean,112 min),including 4 cases of tumor enucleation,10 cases of unilateral partial thyroidectomy,8 cases of bilateral partial thyroidectomy,and 3 cases of bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy with isthmus resection.A conversion to open surgery was required in 1 case owing to thyroid carcinoma with trachea involvement.Pathological findings showed 4 cases of thyroid adenoma,18 cases of nodular goiter,2 cases of primary hyperthyroidism,and 2 cases of thyroid carcinoma.The drainage tubes were removed at 24~48 hours after operation.No nerve or parathyroid injuries occurred.The length of postoperative hospital stay was 3~6 d(mean,4.2 d).Follow-up observations in 25 cases for 3~33 months(mean,13 months) revealed no local recurrence.The patients were satisfied with cosmetic effects.The 2 cases of thyroid carcinoma were followed for 9 and 11 months,respectively,presenting no recurrence or metastasis.Conclusions Endoscopic thyroidectomy via areola of breasts approach is feasible and effective,offering satisfactory cosmetic outcomes.

OBJECTIVE To establish SYBR Green Ⅰ fluorescent quantitative PCR assay for the detection of West Nile virus(WNV),which could be used for early laboratory diagnosis.METHODS A fragment of WNV gene was amplified by PCR,then cloned into pMD-18 T vector.The combinant plasmid was sequenced and analyzed by means of BLAST program,and used as the positive DNA in place of WNV.The SYBR GreenⅠfluorescent quantitative PCR assay was established based on positive plasmid.The sensitivity and specificity of the assay were performed.RESULTS The combinant plasmid was confirmed by sequencing and the fragment belonged to WNV.Ten copies of WNV RNA were detected by SYBR GreenⅠfluorescent quantitative RT-PCR assay.Results of the other members of Flaviviridae were negative,which indicated this assay was specific for WNV.CONCLUSIONS SYBR GreenⅠfluorescent quantitative PCR assay established in this study is highly sensitive and specific,and so it can be used for early diagnosis of WNV infection.

Objective To analyze and evaluate the effect addition of albumin to the extracorporeal circulation (CPB) in patients undergoing valve replacement. Methods 62 patients under 60 years of age, with the blood level of albumin nearly normal, undergoing mitral valve replacement or aortic valve replacement were randomly divided into two groups. In 34 patients albumin was added to the priming fluid of extraporeal circulation, and in 28 patients it was not. The pre-operative and postoperative serum albumin levels, the duration of assisting ventilation, and the amount of albumin needed between the time of operation to 7 am of the first postoperative day were compared. In both groups the primary priming fluid consisted of balanced electrolyte solution, hydroxyethyl starch, 5% sodium bicarbonate, and 25% mannitol. Results All the indexes, including the preoperative level of albumin, the amount of albumin needed from operation to 7 am of the first postoperative day, and the albumin level at 7 am of the first postoperative day showed no notable differences. Conclusion For patients with no hypoalbuminemia, mitral valve replacement or aortic valve replacement is safe to withhold the addition of albumin to the priming fluid for CPB.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic mechanisms for differentiated thyroid cancer by using CIK and IL-2, to find out the better adjunctive clinical therapies for thyroid cancer patients after operation, and to evaluate the effects of cytokine-induced kill cell (CIK) and IL-2 on the secretion of thyroxine by thyroid papillary carcinoma. Methods The samples of thyroid papillary carcinoma were taken from the excised tissues of patient with thyroid cancer, and then dispersed with collagenase and trypsin for culturing. The carcinoma cells were then seeded in 24-well cell culture plates at 37℃, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity for 3 days. At the fourth day, the cells in the wells were separately stimulated four times with different dosage of CIK and IL-2, and the stimulation lasted for 72 hours each time. 12 days later, the solution of T3, T4 was detected with radio-immunity kits, TSH was detected with immuno-radiation kits, and the cell proliferation was detected with mono-nuclear cell direct cytotoxicity assay. Results The thyroid cancer cells did not respond to IL-2 in median and low concentrations, but responded to IL-2 in a higher concentration which may depress the secretary function of thyroid cancer cells. IL-2 of high concentrations can obviously decrease the hormone secretion, such as Thyroxine and Thyrotropin, of papillary carcinoma, and improve the CIK's ability of killing cancer. CIK can kill the cancer cells only when companied with IL-2. Conclusion IL-2 of high concentrations can't inhibit the proliferation of thyroid cancer cells, but can depress the secretary function of thyroid cancer cells, which is different from the killing mechanism of CIK.
