Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of fast track surgery in laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Methods: All patients received elective gastric cancer resection, and were divided into three groups: group Ⅰ (open gastrecomy, n = 30) , group Ⅱ (open gastrecomy with fast track surgery, n = 30) , and group Ⅲ (laparoscopic gastrecomy with fast track surger-y ,n =30) . Clinical data and gut function were assessed in three groups. Results: There were no significant differences in postoperative complication and the number of lymph node harvest between 3 groups. Blood loss was less in group Ⅲ than group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (P <0.01) ,but its operative time was longer and its cost was more than other two open surgery groups (P < 0. 01). Recovery of bowel function in group Ⅲ was faster,and postoperative hospital stay was shorter than group Ⅰ (P<0.01). However, recovery of bowel function and postoperative hospital stay in group Ⅲ was not different from group Ⅱ (P > 0. 05). Conclusion: Postoperative hospital stay can be shorter and recovery of bowel function can be faster in laparoscopic gastrectomy with fast track surgery plan compared to traditional care group. But when using fast track surgery plan, laparoscopic gastrectomy was not superior to open surgery.

Objective To investigate the injury mechanism, fracture characteristics, treatment strategy and prognosis of Pilon fracture without fibula fracture. Methods 28 cases of Pilon fracture without fibula fracture (29 fractures) treated in our hos?pital were adapted from January 2009 to December 2014. 22 cases were male, 6 were female, aged 46 years old (23-75). Cause of injury:tumble in 14 cases, fall from high place in 8 cases, traffic accident in 5 cases, bruise in 1 case. 10 cases had associated in?juries, and 2 cases were open injuries. The OA/ATO fracture type, Rüedi&Allgower fracture type, and characteristics of fractures were summarized. The appropriate treatments were selected, and the operative method, operative time, surgical approach, fixation, fracture healing time, ankle Mazur score, Burwell?Charnley reduction score and postoperative complications were recorded. Re?sults On the mechanism of injury, 28 cases mostly had a median?low energy injury mechanism with little open injuries. On the fracture characteristics, there was a 96.6%anterior distal tibia articular fracture involved with no other specific fracture character?istics occurred. The treatment of the fracture mostly received a single operative approach to complete open reduction and internal fixation operation. The average operation time was 119 minutes, the average fracture healing time was 7.1 months, the excellent and good rate of ankle Mazur score was 86.2%and the satisfactory rate of Burwell?Charnley fracture reduction score was 93.1%. Skin infections occurred in 3 patients after operation. After effective antibiotic and correct clinical treatment, the incisions got healed in these 3 patients. Conclusion Pilon fracture with intact fibula mostly is caused by median to low energy injury when an?kle at neutral or varus position, most with anterior distal tibia articular fracture by foot dorsal flexion. Generally use a single anteri?or approach can complete open reduction and internal fixation operation with satisfactory clinical treatment. This kind of fracture could achieve good reduction, good bone healing, good function and little complications after correct treatment.

The paeonol proniosomes ointment and ordinary ointment were administered to rats. Physiological saline served as perfused solution. The perfusion rate was 5 mL x L(-1) and the microdialysis samples were collected every 20 min intervals. The paeonol concentration in perfused solution was determined by HPLC. Investigation of the pharmacokinetics of paeonol proniosomes ointment and ordinary ointment by the skin-blood synchronous microdialysis coupled with HPLC is reported in this study. The results show that the recovery was (54.80 +/- 1.50)% in vitro and (54.58 +/- 4.61)% in vivo. The results showed that paeonol proniosomes ointment significantly raised the drug concentrations in skin more than the paeonol ordinary ointment. The paeono proniosomes ointment has less drugs into the blood as the ordinary ointments in blood, but its blood drug concentrations were steadier. The paeonol proniosomes ointment may be developed into a new preparation.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the marginal microleakage of porcelain-fused-to-metal crown using four different cements.
METHODSSixteen porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns were built and randomly divided into 4 group, luted onto standard prepared human forward molars using four different cements (glass ionomer cement, resin-modified glass ionomer cement, PanaviaF, Super-Bond C&B adhesive luting system). After temperature cycling test, all the crowns were then submerged in 2% fuchsin for 24 h. The marginal microleakage at tooth cement interfaces was observed using light stereomicroscopy and evaluated in classification index. The marginal microleakage grade of 4 groups were analyzed by SPSS 13.0.
RESULTSThe PanaviaF demonstrated the least marginal microleakage, Super-Bond C&B adhesive luting system, resin-modified glass ionomer cement showed an intermediate level of marginal microleakage, glass ionomer cement was associated with severe marginal microleakage (total, Chi2 = 157.60, P < 0.01; among the different groups, P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONAdhesive resin luting system which is the first selection in clinical is better than glass ionomer cement and is good at porcelain-fused-to-metal crown.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the ultrasonographic features of congenital intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt (CIPSVS) and to assess the clinical value of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of CIPSVS.
METHODSSix cases of CIPSVS diagnosed in our hospital between March 2010 and March 2012 and confirmed by enhanced computed tomography (CT) were retrospectively reviewed. Five of the six cases had follow-up data that was included in the analysis.
RESULTSAmong the six CIPSVS cases, only one was classified as Park's type II and the rest were classified as Park's type III. Five cases involved the right lobe of the liver and only one case involved the left lobe. The lesion shapes included cystic, tubular, and irregular with clear contour and appeared to be anechoic on CT scan. The lesions ranged in size from 1.1*0.6 cm to 2.0*1.7 cm. For all cases, the color Doppler ultrasound images showed blood flowing from the portal vein to the hepatic vein, and single-phase spectrum was detected in the diversion channel. The differences observed in level of lesion size and blood flow velocity at the shunt from the time of examinations at diagnosis and subsequent follow-up did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.223 more than 0.05 and P = 0.930 more than 0.05 respectively).
CONCLUSIONAlthough cases of CIPSVS are rare, they share some specific sonographic features that may help in diagnosis. Color Doppler ultrasound findings have high diagnostic accuracy and may represent a preferred modality for follow-up monitoring.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the functional role of hippocampal mossy fiber sprouting in the pathophysiologic mechanism of initiation and propagation of epilepsy.
METHODSThe authors examined hippocampal mossy fiber synaptic reorganization and the changes of hippocampal neurons in P77PMC rats at different stages in the course of recurrent seizures using Timm's method of silver sulfide staining and Nissl staining and observed the effects of recurrent audiogenic seizures (AGSs) on seizure behavior of P77PMC rats.
RESULTSFrequent recurrent AGSs could cause neuronal loss in CA(1) region of hippocampus and hippocampal mossy fiber sprouting got into the inner molecular layer of dentate gyrus in P77PMC rats, and could decrease the latency of IV/V grade of AGSs, increase the durations of AGSs. The mean A of CA(1) region of hippocampus in Nissl staining after 50 times of AGSs was 35.3 +/- 0.8, which was markedly lower than that of the control (44.1 +/- 0.5; F = 333.89, P < 0.001). The mean A of the inner molecular layer of dentate gyrus in Timm's staining after 50 times of AGSs was 49.3 +/- 4.6, which was markedly higher than that of the control (26.8 +/- 1.7; F = 76.83, P < 0.001). After 30 and 50 times of AGSs, the latent periods of IV/V grade of AGSs were 12 +/- 8 (t = 3.805; P < 0.02) and 17 +/- 7 (t = 5.927; P < 0.002) seconds shorter than the initial period of stimulation respectively on average, and the durations of AGSs were 19 +/- 18 (t = 2.644; P < 0.05) and 10 +/- 7 (t = 3.780; P < 0.02) seconds longer.
CONCLUSIONHippocampal mossy fiber sprouting and neuronal loss not only presents in limbic seizure, but also in AGS, the seizure can be initiated in brainstem but rapidly generalized;in AGS-prone rats, recurrent AGSs can cause mossy fiber synaptic reorganization and neuronal loss in hippocampus, and can also enhance seizure susceptibility of P77PMC rats. In the course of recurrent AGSs, enhanced seizure susceptibility happened before hippocampal mossy fiber sprouting. Their temporal relationships indicate that the anatomical changes may be preceded by functional changes of elevated excitability in the brain.
