This paper summarizes the observation and nursing of patients with postoperative complications following percuta-neous transhepatic cholangogrphic drainage(PTCD) and biliary tract stent implantation for malignant obstructive jaundice. A-mong thirty-two patients,eight had postoperative complications,including two with biliary tract hemorrhage,four with biliary tract infection,one with pneumothorax and one with bile leakage. All the thirty-two patients recovered well in clinical symptoms and quality of life. To attach importance to psychological nursing and postoperative health education are the key points in nursing care of patients with PTCD,which play important roles in alleviating clinical symptoms,improving treatment outcome and pro-moting the patients' quality of life.

BACKGROUND: Research has proved that nifedipine can improve the functions of vascular endothelial cells. However, it still needs further study on its mechanism on dilating vessels.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of controlled-release nifedipine to nitrogen monoxide(NO) and induced nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR).DESIGN: Comparative observational study based on experimental animals.SETTING: Experimental animal centre in a medical college.MATERIALS: This study was completed in Experimental Animal Centre of Shandong University during April to May 2002. Twenty-one recombinant inbred rats of clean class with body mass of(300 ± 2) grams were provided by Experimental Animal Centre of Shandong University. They were randomly divided into three groups: control group, normal group and low dose group,each with 7 rats.METHODS: Saline(10 mL/kg), 10 mL/kg and 3 mL/kg controlled-release nifedipine solution(0. 3 g/L) were poured into stomach to rats in control group, normal dose group and low dose group once everyday for 15 days respectively. Eyeball was removed to collect blood and heart and lung were removed at the same time to test the content of NO and iNOS in serum after last administration.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Content of NO, comparison of iNOS activity between groups.RESULTS: There was significant difference on NO content between normal dose group and control group, low dose group after 15 days' administration ( P < 0. 01 ) . Compared with control group and low dose group, there was significant difference on the iNOS activity in heart and lung of normal dose group(P <0.01, P <0.05).CONCLUSION: While nifedipine reduces the blood pressure, it can also improve the content of NO and resist the increasing activity of iNOS casued by increased blood pressure.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of ornidazole in the treatment of trichomonal vaginitis. Methods:Totally 112 cases of trichomonal vaginitis from February 2011 to December 2012 in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the ob-servation group and the control group with 56 cases in each. The control group was treated with metronidazole tablets 200mg, po,tid, and the observation group was treated with ornidazole tablets 500mg, po,bid. The treatment course was 7 days. The clinical effect, score of clinical symptoms and incidence of adverse reactions of the two groups were compared. Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was 96. 4%, which was higher than that of the control group (82. 1%), and the difference was statistically signifi-cant (P<0. 05). The symptom scores of the two groups were significantly improved after the treatment (P<0. 05), however, the score between the two groups showed no significant difference (P>0. 05). The incidence rate of adverse reactions in the observation group was 10. 71%, which was significantly lower than that in the control group (37. 5%), and the difference was statistically signifi-cant (P<0. 05). Conclusion:The clinical curative effect of ornidazole in the treatment of trichomonal vaginitis is notable with faster onset, shorter treatment course, lower adverse reaction rate and better patient tolerance,which is valuable in the clinical promotion.

To compare the efficiency of methods of DNA extraction from lungs of Pomacea canaliculataused in PCR assay, 80 P.canaliculata collected in field were divided into 8 groups and the lungs of each snail were separated from the soft body. Six methods of DNA extraction from lungs of P. canaliculata were used to extract DNA from lungs, i.e. With Qiagen, Tiangen,and Omega commercial DNA extraction kits, guanidine thiocyanate method, Chelex 100 resin method and Chelex-silica particle method. The 16S rDNA of C.canaliculata was amplified by PCR and the concentration of PCR-products relative to marker was determined in order to evaluate the efficiency of each method. It was demonstrated that each method was valid to extract DNA from lungs used in PCR assay, but the concentrations of PCR-products were different. The concentrations of PCR-products obtained by Qiangen kit, Omega kit, Chelex 100 resin method and Chelex-silica particle method were significantly higher than those of other 4 methods of DNA extraction, in which Qiangen and Omega kits were suitable for small sample size. In term of efficiency and cost, Chelex 100 method and Chelex-silica particle method were feasible for large sample scale, while the guanidine thiocyanate method was preferred due to its fast extraction and low cost, but on account of its toxicity, it is used in urgent status or in large scale of sample extraction.

Objective To investigate the different clinical behavior and the diagnosis and trearment of primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT). Methods Clinical data of 53 patients with PHPT treated in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from May 1977 to April 2004 were collected and analyzed. Results 53 patients with PHPT were confirmed by operation and pathology. The majority of the patients were aged 20~50 years. There were more female than male patients. There were various clinical manifestations, and the duration of illness was (protracted). Many cases were misdiagnosed. There were bone pathologic changes of varying extent in all (patients), stones in urinary system plus bone pathology in 11 cases, serum level of calcium was raised in 51 patients(96.2%) and (parathyroid) hormone (PTH) was elevated in all examined 48 cases. Ultrasound, MIBI and CT were done before operation after 1991, and accurate preoperative localization diagnosis was (obtained). Minimally invasive (parathyroidectomy) (MIP) was successfully completed in 39 of 45 cases, and the primary operation cure rate was 97.4%. At postoperative follow-up of 10 months to 10 years, with the (exception) of 15 cases of severe bone deformity that had no obvious improvement, the other symptoms and signs were all relieved to varying (extents), the laboratory markers returned to normal, and there was no permanent hypoparathyroidism or (recurrent) nerve injury or other complications.Conclusions Early diagnosis of PHPT and effective early (treatment) by surgical removal of the pathologic lesion can alleviate the occurrence of severe bone changes and deformity. The preoperative combined use of imaging localization technique and overall assessment can improve the accuracy of diagnostic localization of the lesion.

Objective To explore the role of TGF-βand TGIF in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Methods The expression of TGF-β and TGIF was detected by immunohistochemistry method in the ectopic and eutopic endometrium of 30 cases with endometriosis (ec-topic endometrium group and eutopic endometrium group) and in the normal endometrium of 40 cases without endometriosis (control group). Result The expression of TGF -β in ectopic endometrium group was significantly higher than that in eutopic endometrium group and control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of TGF- βbetween eutopic endometrium group and control group(P > 0.05). The expression of TGIF in ectopic endometrium group was significantly lower than that in eutopic endometrium group and control group( P <0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of TGIF between eutopic endometrium group and control group(P > 0.05). There were negative correlation between the expressions of TGF - β and TGIF in ectopic endometrium group and eutopic endome-trium group(rs= - 0.769, - 0.549, P < 0.05). Conclusion The abnormal expression of TGF-β and TGIF in ectopic endometrium of pa-tients with endometriosis may be associated with the genesis and progression of endometriosis.

Objective:To investigate the change and related factors of nitric oxide,nitric oxide synthase level and cerebral blood flow(CBF) in panic disorder.Methods:30 patients with panic disorder,30 patients with generalized anxiety disorder and 22 normal controls entered the study.Serum level of NO and NOS were assayed.Cerebral blood flow were measured with TCD.Results:The concentration of NO was significantly lower in panic disorder group in comparison with GAD group.There was no significant difference in NOS level between panic disorder group and the control group.Cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the left and right middle cerebral artery and mean cerebral blood flow velocity in the right middle cerebral artery were lower than normal control group and the difference were very significant.Cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the right vertebral artery was lower than those of GAD and NC group.The concentration of NO in panic disorder was correlated with HAMA score negatively.Cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the left middle cerebral artery was correlated with mean Cerebral blood flow velocity in the left middle cerebral artery,peak CBF velocity in the right middle cerebral artery and psychological anxiety positively and correlated to cerebral blood peak mean velocity in the right middle cerebral artery,peak CBF velocity in the right anterior cerebral artery,age and female negatively.Cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the right middle cerebral artery has positive correlation with mean cerebral blood flow velocity in the right middle cerebral artery and peak CBF locity in the right anterior cerebral artery and negative correlation with cerebral blood mean flow velocity in the right anterior cerebral artery. Mean cerebral blood flow velocity in the right middle cerebral artery was correlated to cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the right middle cerebral artery,mean cerebral blood flow velocity in the left middle cerebral artery,cerebral blood mean flow velocity in the right anterior cerebral artery and NO level positively and age,cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the left middle cerebral artery and cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the right anterior cerebral artery negatively.Cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the right vertebra artery has positive correlation with cerebral blood mean flow velocity in the right vertebra artery and cerebral blood mean flow velocity in the left middle cercbral artery and negative correlation with cerebral blood peak flow velocity in the left anterior cerebral artery and cerebral blood mean flow velocity in the right anterior cerebral artery.Conclusion:The change of NO and cerebral blood flow may be one of the neurobiological mechanisms in panic disorder.To assay the level of NO and measure cerebral blood flow might become approach of diagnosis for panic disorder.

Objective To discuss the effect and the method of treatment of anti-cardiolipin antibody (ACA),ANA and ENA on abnormal delivery women,and their relationship with abnormal delivery.Methods The concentrations of plasman ACA,ANA,ENA and the times of abortion in abnormal delivery for 193 cases of abnormal delivery women and 100 cases of normal pregnancy were quarnlitatively detected and satistically analyzed.The 81 ACA positive patients were treated orally with aspirin,25 ACA and ANA/ENA positive patients were treated with aspirin combined with prednisone,and 3 ANA/ENA positive patients with prednisone treatment oral.Results The number of ACA and ANA positive patients was closely related to the types of abmormal delivery. The ANA and ENA positive patients was related to the times of abortion. There was no difference in the outcome of treatment between both therapies of aspirine and aspirine combined with prednisone in abnormal delivery women.Conclusions ACA is an important factor in causing abnormal delivery. No matter what ANA and ENA are in ACA positive patients,their can be treated with aspirin alone.
