OBJECTIVETo summarize the experience and short-term clinical outcomes of hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery (HALS) in sphincter-preserving surgery for low and ultralow rectal cancer.
METHODSData of 49 patients with rectal cancer who underwent HALS for low or ultralow anterior resection between January 2010 and January 2011 were analyzed retrospectively.
RESULTSThe proximal resection margin was (14.3±6.9) cm and the distal margin was(4.3±1.9) cm. The mean operative time was(128.3±70.9) min. On postoperative macroscopic evaluation, the mesorectum was intact in 42 cases, nearly intact in 7 cases. The circumferential resection margin was more than 2 mm in 42 cases, and less than 2 mm in 7 cases. Forty-six patients underwent R0 resection, and 3 cases underwent R1 resection. The median retrieved lymph node (LN) was 16.20±9.23, and the median positive LN was 1.12±2.19. Postoperative pathological examination showed TNM stage was I( in 12 patients, II(A in 18, II(B in 1, III(A in 2, III(B in 8, III(C in 5, IIII( in 3. The median postoperative hospital stay was (6.25±3.87) d. There were no anastomotic leakage, ileus, intra-abdominal or anastomotic bleeding. There were two wound infections.
CONCLUSIONLow and ultralow anterior resection for rectal cancer using HALS approach is safe and feasible with favorable short-term outcome.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the changes of vasoconstriction and vasodilatation under different temperature conditions and the protective effects of Vitamin E (Vit E) against endothelial injury induced by hypothermia.
METHODSThe tail arterial rings were prepared for isometric tension recording using multi wire myograph system. The effect of temperature on relaxation and construction was evaluated. Incubate the arterial rings with different concentration of Vit E when they were exposed to hypothermia, then acetylcholine (ACh)-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation was investigated to evaluate the activity of endothelial.
RESULTS(1) The hypothermia could enhanced the dose-dependent construction induced by PE in mice tail artery. (2) Exposure to hypothermia also resulted in increase of sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-induced re-After incubation with Vit E, the vascular relaxation responses to ACh increased in an endothelium-dependent manner, when compared with the hypothermia-treated group.
CONCLUSIONThe vascular function of constriction was attenuated by hypothermia, while the relaxation was increased. Vit E could prevent the hypothermia-induced decrease in vascular endothelial cells.

Secondary metabolites are the result of that plant interaction with biological and non-biological factors in the long-term evolution process, and play an important role in plant growth, development and physiology. The effective components of medicinal plant are usually the secondary metabolites in plant cells, and the synthesis of them are affected by a variety of factors, such as environmental impact. Acquirement of the secondary metabolites via callus culture has the advantage of low cost and less environmental impact. The synthesis and accumulation of medicinal plant secondary metabolites are not only controlled by light, temperature and pH, but also infected by germplasm, plant growth regulator and elicitor. This article presents a review of the influencing factors, and provides a basis for further study and development.

To study the effect of steaming and baking process on contents of alkaloids in Aconite Lateralis Radix (Fuzi), 13 alkaloids were analyzed by UPLC-MS/MS equipped with ESI ion source in MRM mode. In steaming process, the contents of diester-diterpenoid alkaloids decreased rapidly, the contents of monoester-diterpenoid alkaloids firstly increased, reached the peak at 40 min, and then deceased gradually. The contents of aconine alkaloids (mesaconine, aconine and hypaconine) increased all the time during processing, while the contents of fuziline, songorine, karacoline, salsolionl were stable or slightly decreased. In baking process, dynamic variations of alkaloids were different from that in the steaming process. Diester-diterpenoid alkaloids were degraded slightly slower than in steaming process. Monoester-diterpenoid alkaloids, aconine alkaloids and the total alkaloids had been destroyed at different degrees, their contents were significantly lower than the ones in steaming Fuzi at the same processing time. This experiment revealed the dynamic variations of alkaloids in the course of steaming and baking. Two processing methods which can both effectively remove the toxic ingredients and retain the active ingredients are simple and controllable, and are valuable for popularization and application.
