OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect of low-dose once-daily tadalafil combined with Shuganyiyang Capsules in the treatment of mild-to-moderate erectile dysfunction (ED).

METHODSNinety patients with mild-to-moderate ED were equally randomized to groups A, B and C to receive Shuganyiyang Capsules, tadalafil, and tadalafil + Shuganyiyang Capsules, respectively. The scores of the patients on IIEF-5 and SF-PAIRS (15-Item Short Form of Psychological Interpersonal Relationship Scales) were recorded before and at 1 and 3 months after treatment.

RESULTSThe IIEF-5 scores of groups A, B and C were 10.13 +/- 1.55, 11.00 + 1.60 and 10.73 +/- 1.91 before treatment, and 13.77 +/- 2.11, 17.77 +/- 2.13 and 17.17 +/- 3.84 at 1 month after treatment, significantly higher in B and C than in A (P <0. 001) , but with no remarkable difference between B and C (P =0. 411). At 3 months after treatment, the IIEF-5 scores were 15.77 +/- 2.05, 18.07 +/- 2.24 and 19.37 +/- 3.76 in the three groups, dramatically higher in B and C than in A (P <0.001) as well as in C than in B (P<0.05). The scores on sexual self-confidence, sexual spontaneity and time concerns in SF-PAIRS were 3.90 +/-0.80, 8.67 +/- 1.94 and 14.43 +/- 1.92 before medication, 5.83 +/- 1.02, 9.90 +/- 1.75 and 11.17 +/- 1.68 at 1 month and 6.73 +/- 0.98, 11.07 +/- 2.08 and 10.67 +/-1.60 at 3 months after medication in group A; 4.17 +/- 0.87, 9.37 +/-1.43 and 14.47 +/-1.57 before medication, 6.47 +/-0.78, 10.83 +/- 2.18 and 10.20 +/-1.56 at 1 month and 6.83 +/-0.91, 11.30 +/- 1.88 and 9.47 +/- 1.57 at 3 months in group B; and 4.23 +/-0. 94, 9.50 +/- 1.89 and 14.67 +/- 2.91 before medication, 8.03 +/- 1.67, 13.43 +/-1.10 and 9.70 +/-1.21 at 1 month and 8.93 +/- 1.78, 14.70 +/- 1.26 and 8. 87 +/- 0. 97 at 3 months in group C. Compared with the baseline, the SF-PAIRS scores of the three groups were all significantly improved after treatment (P <0. 05) , and markedly higher in C than in the other two groups (P <0.05).

CONCLUSIONLow-dose once-daily tadalafil combined with Shuganyiyang Capsules is obviously effective in the treatment of mild-to-moderate ED, which not only improves the patients'erectile function, sexual self-confidence and sexual spontaneity, but also reduces their time concerns.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of liver transplantation (LT) for cholangiocarcinoma(CC)and analyze the prognostic factors.Methods From December 2001 to December 2006,234 patients receiving LT for hepatic carcinoma in our institute were enrolled as a basis of comparative study for 6 CC patients undergoing LT during the same period.Results These 6 patients were followed-up from 1 to 56 months.Five patients died and one recurred.The 0.5-,1-and 2-year patient cumulative survival rates were 4/6,3/6 and 1/6,respectively.The 0.5-,1-and 2-year tumor-free survival rates were 3/6,2/6 and 1/6,respectively.The average patient or tumor-free survival time were both(14±4) months.Conclusion The prognosis of cholangioearcinoma patients after LT iS poor.

A total of 68 patients with histologically proven endometrial cancer were preoperatively evaluated with a 3.0 T magnetic resonance (MR) unit.Two radiologists interpreted the depth of myometrial invasion on T2-weighted and diffusion-weighted(DW) MR (b =700 s/mm2) imaging.Myometrial tumor spread was classified as superficial (＜ 50％) or deep (≥50％ myometrial thickness).Statistical methods included Kappa statistics for reader agreement,accuracy assessment and receiver operating characteristic analysis for diagnostic performance comparison.For assessing the depth of myometrial invasion,the diagnostic accuracy,sensitivity and specificity were as follows:T2-weighted imaging-reader 1st,61.8％,60.0％ and 65.2％;reader 2nd,66.2％,64.4％ and 69.6％ ; T2-weighted combined DW imaging-reader 1st,86.8％,84.4％and 91.3％ ; reader 2nd,89.7％,86.7％ and 95.7％.Reader agreement was excellent for T2-weighted combined DW imaging (Kappa =0.818).For assessing deep myometrial involvement,ROC analysis showed that the diagnostic accuracy was significantly higher on T2-weighted combined DW imaging than that on T2-weighted imaging.The AUC (area under the curve) values measured by two readers on T2-weighted and T2-weighted combined DW imagings were 0.626,0.879 and 0.670,0.912 respectively.The addition of 3.0T MR diffusion-weighted to T2-weighted imaging can improve the diagnostic performance of MR imaging in the assessment of myometrial invasion.

Objective To evaluate and compare the curative effect between the microinvasive craniopuncture therapy and the clearance of hematoma by craniotomy with small bone flap in treating patients with moderate cerebral hemorrhage (30-60 ml)in the basal ganglion part of the brain. Methods Ninety-five patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were randomly divided into treatment group (microinvasive craniopuncture therapy) and control group (the clearance of hematoma by craniotomy with small bone flap). The main indexes of evaluation were the neurological impairment degree (NID) on the 14th day after treatment, activities of daily living (ADL) by the end of the third month, the incidence rate of complications, and the case fatality during 3 months. Results On the 14th day after treatment, there was no significant difference between the two groups in the NID and the ADL of patients. The incidence rate of respiratory tract infection, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, electrolyte disorder in treatment group [16.33% (8/49), 6.12% (3/49), 6.12% (3/49), respectively] was significantly reduced than those of control group [56.52% (26/46), 21.74%(10/46), 21.74% (10/46),respectively] during hospitalization (P < 0.05). By the end of the third month, there was significant difference in favorable outcomes (Barthel index 95-100) (χ~2 = 18.7524,P =0.0009) and in improving the ADL (MRS)(t =5.2723,P =0.0001) between the two groups [39.13% (18/46), 4.65% (2/43),respectively]. In ease fatality, there was no significant difference between the two groups [6.12% (3/49),6.52% (3/46),respectively]. Conclusion As compared with the clearance of hematoma by craniotomy with small bone flap, the microinvasive craniopuncture therapy can remarkably reduce the incidence of complications, and improve the ADL of patients with moderate cerebral hemorrhage (30-60 ml) in the basal ganglion, and decrease disability without increasing fatality.
