Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and the treatment of pancreatic encephalopathy (PE) and Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE). Method A retrospective study was conducted on 596 cases of acute pancreatitis. Results There were 93 cases of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP),among them encephalopathy was discovered in 10 patients (1.7%). All 6 patients of PE developed in SAP (6.5%);3 patients died (3% of SAP,50% of PE). Four cases of WE developed in AP (0.7%);2 patients died (0.3% of AP,50% of WE). Two patients of WE were treated with parenteral thiamine (vitamin B_ 1 ),and they survived. Conclusions PE occurred in early stage of SAP or recrudescence,while WE usually occurred in convalescent stage of SAP/AP. Long fasting,repeated vomiting,and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) without VitB_ 1 were main causes of VitB_ 1 deficiency,which might be the main causative factor in WE.

Eighty six patients with chronic superficial gastritis, atrophic gastritis and peptic ulcer without autoimmune diseases underwent gastroscopy and biopsy in the gastric antrum and body. Hp was identified by histopathological analysis (Warthin Starry silver stains) and rapid urease test (RUT). Lymphoid tissue was observed by HE stain and immunohistochemistry method. Results showed that Hp infection was found in 68 6% of the patients.Lymphoid follicles were present in 35 6% of the Hp positive patients ,and no lymphoid follicles were found in the Hp negative patients.In six Hp positive patients,Lymphoepithelial lesions were found.Hp infection was closely associated with gastric mucosal lymphoid infiltration,lymphoid follicles and active inflammation( P

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic treatment in patients with primary hepatic carcinoma and gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage. Methods Thirty cases of hepatic carcinoma with gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage diagnosed with gastroscopy between January 2008 and June 2015 in Chinese PLA General Hospital and Hainan branch were included. Patients′ clinical data, complications and therapeutic effects of endoscopy were retrospectively analyzed. Results All patients underwent endoscopy successfully. No recurrent bleeding was found in any case after treatment. Eight cases of varicosis nearly disappeared. Six?month follow?up showed three cases of gastrointestinal bleeding, one case of death of bleeding, and no recurrence hemorrhage in 27 others. Conclusion Endoscopic treatment could safely and effectively control the primary liver cancer combined with gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage, hence may provide opportunity for further treatment of liver cancer.

BACKGROUND:With the development of the oral cavity planting technology, dental implants have been strongly retained and stabilized, characterized as both aesthetic appearance and functional achievements. Especial y, they are accepted by more and more patients due to no damage to adjacent teeth. However, diabetes may not only lead to periodontal disease, but also result in delayed healing of the oral mucosa and alveolar bone as wel as infection. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the relationship between diabetes and peri-implantitis, and focus on the maintenance of dental implants for diabetic patients. METHODS:A computer retrieval of PubMed and CNKI databases was performed for relevant articles published from January 1980 to January 2016 using the keywords of“diabetes;peri-implantitis”in English and Chinese, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We confirm that diabetes is a relative contraindication to implant restoration, but the use of a series of methods that ensure the successful osseointegration, including blood glucose control, strictly prohibiting early loading or multi-implant restoration for single alveolar bone, anti-infection, implant surface modification, can make high success rate for diabetic patients. This brings the gospel to diabetic patients who hope to solve the problem of missing teeth by implant-supported prosthesis.

Objective To explore the clinical trait and relationship between clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis in Uygurs women with breast cancer of Xinjiang. Methods The clinicopathological data of 74 cases with breast cancer of Uygurs women were analyzed, multivariate analysis was done by COX proportional hazard model. Results 74 cases have followed up: there-year and five-year survival rates were 75.00 %(48/64) and 43.50 %(20/46)respectively. Multivariable COX regression revealed that patient age, menstruation, status of involved lymph node, TNM and the expression of PR were five important and independent prognostic factors for breast cancer of Uygurs women, the hazard rations of these factors were 0.037, 0.103, 13.851, 18.877, and 0.046, respectively. Conclusions The proportion of breast cancer of Uygurs women was low in patient of Xinjiang, but patient age was young, age of onset were more than half between 36 and 50 years old and mainly belong to Ⅱ, Ⅲ stage of TNM, prognosis was poorly. Patient age, menstruation, status of involved lymph node, TNM and the expression of PR serve as independent prognostic indexes of breast cancer of Uygurs women. Early diagnosis and treatment are very important to improve the survival rate of breast cancer patients

Objective To evaluate the expression of WWOX gene in breast cancer and its relation to hypermethylation of WWOX gene CpG island. Methods The expression of WWOX protein was evaluated by immunohistochemical staining in breast cancer cell line and breast cancer tissues.Methylation specific PCR(MSP)was used to check whether it Was methylated in the promoter and exon 1 of WWOX.Results Deletion in the WWOX expression was observed more frequently in invasive breast tumors,(32.2%)than normal breasttissues(5.4%)(P＜0.01).20.3% of premenopause eases were completely negative for WWOX expression compared to 57.2% of postmenopause breast carcinomas(P＜0.01).Furthermore,23.1% of Stage Ⅰ(6/26),28.6%of Stage Ⅱ(10/35),46.2%of Stage Ⅲ(12/26)tunlors showed negative WWOX protein expression.In breast cancer specimens.methylation rate of promoter and exon 1 CpG island of WWOX gene was 55%and 45%respectively.Whereas.WWOX CpG islands of normal mammary tissues were completely unmethylated in all cases.CpG islands of WWOX promoter and exon 1 were methylated in MDA-MB-231 cell line but not MCF-7 cell.Conclusions Some deletion in WWOX expression is common in breast cancer and methylation of WWOX DNA CpG islands plays a crucial role in the silence of WWOX.WWOX may play a role in the carcinogenesis and development of breast cancer.

Objective To explore the manipulation,feasibility and safety of laparoscopy assisted natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery(NOTES).Methods The technique was performed in 4 female porcine models.Diagnostic laparoscopy was performed first,and followed by transgastric access through the anterior gastric wall under the monitor of laparoscopy.The stoma was extended with the dilation ballon and the endoscope was sent to the abodominal cavity.Such procedures as endoscopic peritoneoseopy,fallopian tube ligation,oophorectomy,eholeeysteetomy and closure of gastrostomy were performed.The drainage tube and antibiotics of 3 days were used after operation according to the bleeding and potential risk of fistula and peritonitis.The animals were feeded on a semiliquid diet.Two weeks later,routine gastroseopy was pedbrmed to examine the healing of luminal incision.Subsequently,all models were sacrificed for the evaluation of the validity of NOTES.Results With the assistance of the laparoscope,endoscopic peritoneoseopy and,fallopian tube ligation,oophorectomy and cholecystectomy,twice for each,were successfully performed in all models.Abdominal drainage were used in two animals'after eholecystectomy.All porcines survived for 2 weeks postoperatively with no weight loss.Autopsic examination showed good healing of transgastric incisions,with little adhesion,no massive heinan'hage,abcesses,or injury to adjacent organs.Conclusion Combined laparoscopy and endoscopy for NOTES is feasible with relative safety.Laparoscopic assistance could facilitate the NOTES procedures at the present stage.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic tissue adhesive injection combined with sequential endoscopic variceal ligation for gastroesophageal varices of Le,g type. Methods Twenty-three patients with gastroesophageal varices of Le,g type were enrolled to General Hospital of PLA from May 2013 to March 2015, who were treated with endoscopic tissue adhesive injection in the fundic and cardiac site in the first session, followed with endoscopic variceal ligation for esophageal varices. The clinical data, procedure complications and efficacy were retrospectively analysed. Results All procedures were successfully performed with no such evident complications as intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, embolization, mediastinal infection or death with an average hospitalization time of 15. 3±4. 09 days. Mild and moderate thoracalgia occurred in 13 patients(56. 5%), low-grade fever in 2 patients(8. 7%, recovered after symptomatic treatment for 1-2 days) . During the follow-up of 2 weeks, the rate of varices disappearance was 56. 5% (13/23) and no recurrent bleeding was observed. Six months after discharge, 10 patients underwent endoscopy again, varices disappeared in 4 and 6 with remains;the 13 others showed no hemorrhage according to follow-up call. Conclusion The therapy of endoscopic tissue adhesive injection with sequential endoscopic variceal ligation for gastroesophageal varices of Le,g type is safe and efficient.

Objective To evaluate the effects of pacing in right ventricular septum (RVS) on hemodynamics among atrioventricular sequential dual chamber pacing Methods Twenty patients with high grade or complete atrioventricular block received permanent dual chamber pacemaker ( DDD ),were randomized into right ventricular septum pacing group (RVS)and right ventricular apex pacing group (RVA)according to the ventricular leads position.The QRS duration of the ECG,the left ventricular ejection (LVEF),the interventricular mechanical delay( IVMD )and the plasma levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)were compared before and after operations.Results Compared with the preoperation,the mean QRS duration ( ( 187.00 ± 15.67 ) ms and (94.00 ±9.17 ) ms),the IV MD ( (43.20 ± 6.79 ) ms and ( 15.00 ± 4.08 ) ms ),the level of BNP ( ( 89.70 ± 8.30) ng/L and (40.00 ± 4.73 ) ng/L) increased( P ＜ 0.05 ) and LVEF decreased significantly ( (53.70 ± 1.34) % and (58.60 ±1.65 )% ,P ＜ 0.05 ) in RVA group,but didn't change in RVS group (P ＞ 0.05 ).After three months following up,the mean QRS duration and the IVMD in RVS group( (119.00 ±7.38 )ms,(19.00 ±4.59)ms) were shorter than that of RVA group( ( 187.00 ± 15.67) ms,(43.20 ± 6.79) ms) ( P ＜ 0.05 ),the LVEF was higher and the plasma level of BNP was lower than that of RVA group ( (57.00 ± 2.00) % and ( 53.70 ± 1.34) %,(44.20 ± 9.18 ) ng/Land ( 89.70 ±8.30) ng/L,P ＜0.05).Conclusions The RVS pacing could keep the normal ventricular activation sequence and biventricular contraction synchrony farthest without side effects on hemodynamics in comparison with the RVA pacing.The RVS pacing is more approaching physiological rhythm than the RVA pacing.
