2.Transformation of main surgical hole during laparoscopic exploration of common bile duct
Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2015;14(10):784-786
During June 2012 to October 2014, a total of 48 patients with stones in common bile duct diagnosed by ultrasound and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) were randomly divided into two groups (n =24 each).The general group underwent conventional common bile duct exploration by laparoscopy (LCHTD) at left side.For improvement group, the operator timely transfered from left side to right side during laparoscopy.And two auxiliary holes of right side were used for suturing common bile duct.All patients successfully completed common bile duct exploration by laparoscopy.The suturing times of common bile duct were (13.6 ± 2.5) & (7.6 ± 2.7) min (t =11.365, P =0.000), intraoperative bleeding volume (77.52 ± 12.49) & (74.91 ± 13.66) ml (t =2.627,P =0.008), average peak temperature at day 3 post-operation (38.6 ± 0.5) & (37.4 ± 0.5) ℃ (t =9.954, P =0.000) and average postoperative hospitalization length (9.2 ± 3.4) & (7.1 ± 2.1) days (t =8.730, P =0.000).Compared with general group, the suturing time of common bile duct was significantly shorter in improvement group, the average highest temperature at day 3 post-operation were lower and complications (bile leakage, bile duct stricture & biliary tract bleeding) decreased significantly.The main hole conversion during common bile duct exploration by laparoscopy offers the advantages of flexibility, convenience and applicability.

Objective To explore the effects of low serum-albumin on maternal and neonatal outcomes in severe pre-eclampsia. Methods Two hundred and thirty-three women with severe preeclampsia admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2000 to Mar. 2006 were retrospectively investigated and were divided into two groups according to the serum-albumin level: low serum-albumin group (Group A, n= 133) and normal serum-albumin group (Group B, n=90). Maternal and fetal outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results The proportion of women with abnormal retention of fluid (6.8%, vs 0), elevated liver enzymes (60.9% vs 38.9%) renal involvement (30.1% vs 11.1%) and complications (23.3% vs 11.1%) (placental abruption and postpartum hemorrhage) in group A were significantly higher than those in group B (all P<0. 05). Birth weight in group A was lower than that in group B[(2192. 78±795. 31) g vs (2454. 92±776. 24) g, P<0. 05] and neonatal mortality in group A was higher (26.0%vs 13. 6%, P<0. 05). Conclusions Severe pre-eclampsia with low serum-albumin is associated with severe maternal and neonatal outcomes. Appropriate termination of pregnancy should be considered following adequate and careful assessment of maternal and fetal well-being in order to improve perinatal outcomes.

Objective To investigate the incidence and pregnant outcome on vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). Methods From January 2005 to December 2015, clinical data of 507 cases with VBAC in West China Second Hospital were studied retrospectively. There were 370 cases of VBAC from January 2013 to December 2015 as study group (VBAC group), in contrast, 740 cases of elective repeat cesarean section (ERCS group) and 740 primiparas of vaginal delivery without history of cesarean section as control groups, the pregnancy outcome were analyzed between the study group and control groups respectively. Results (1) There were 76 547 total births from January 2005 to December 2015. Among these, 10 178 (13.296%, 10 178/76 547) patients had a single prior low transverse cesarean section, of which 4.981%(507/10 178) had VBAC. The incidence of VBAC was rising from 1.020%-3.704%during 2005-2012 to 6.028%-7.662% during 2013-2015. The rate of scared uterus during 2013-2015 was 18.269% (5 539/30 319), of which 9.26%(513/5 539) chose trial of labor after cesarean section (TOLAC). Successful VBAC occurred in 72.12%(370/513) of patients with TOLAC, and 27.88%(143/513) delivered by emergency cesarean. (2) The following parameters of the successful group and the unsuccessful VBAC group were compared, maternal age (29±4) versus (34±4) years, body mass index at prenatal visit (22.2±1.4) versus (22.6±1.4) kg/m2, gestational age (38.7±0.9) versus (39.6±1.3) weeks, birth weight (3 326±317) versus (3 404±285) g, and the rate of induction of labor 0 (0/370) and 6.29%(9/143), there were significant differences (all P<0.01). There was no statistical difference between two group for lower uterine segment (P=0.947). (3) The duration of labor of VBAC group and 740 primiparas of vaginal delivery without history of cesarean section was compared, (10.3± 1.8) versus (11.5 ± 2.0) hours, there was significant difference (P<0.01). There were no statistical difference between two groups for the following parameters, including postpartum hemorrhage, hospitalization duration, the ratio of 5-minute Apgar score≥8, neonatal admission rate (all P>0.05). (4) The postpartum hemorrhage and hospitalization duration in VBAC group incidence were respectively (194±34) ml and (2.32±0.49) days, and the indexes of the ERCS group were respectively (419 ± 57) ml and (4.14 ± 0.78) days, there were significant differences (all P<0.01). There were no statistical difference between two groups for the ratio of 5-minute Apgar score≥8 and neonatal admission rate (all P>0.05). Conclusions The majority of patients choose ERCS rather than TOLAC. It′s important to assess the indications and contraindications of patients for the successful VBAC, and to monitor maternal and fetal conditions during the delivery process. The premise of TOLAC is a comprehensive understanding of closely monitoring the progress of delivery. Compared with the ERCS, VBAC could reduce patients′ postpartum hemorrhage and hospitalization duration, improve the outcomes of pregnancy, and the cesarean section rate could be reduced.

The anti-aging effect of Yang Shou Dan (YSD) was studied. It was shown that YSD could obviously increase the activity of superoxicde dismutase (SOD) in erythrocyte, decrease lipid peroxides (LPO) in serum and in liver tissue and reduce the content of lipofucin in myocardium of mice. It could also prolong the mean life span, the half lethal period and the longest life time of drosophila melanogater. It is suggested that YSD exerts an anti-aging effect to a certain extent.
