Objective To observe the clinical effect of moxibustion on body sub-health fatigue state.Methods 120 cases of body sub-health patients were randomly divided into A,B,C three groups,with 40 cases in each group.Group A was treated with moxibustion,group B was treated with acupuncture therapy,and group C (control group) did not receive any measure of treatments.Fatigue scale (FS) was adopted to the three groups respectively for measuring physical fatigue score,mental fatigue score and total fatigue score before and after the treatment.Treatment efficacy was evaluated and analyzed after three weeks of continuous treatment.Results The total score of fatigue scale was 6.10 ± 2.47、6.82± 2.36、and 10.10±2.66 respectively in group A,group B and group C.Compared with group C,the difference in group A and group B was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Compared with group B,the difference in group A was not statistically significant (P＞0.05) ; The Physical fatigue points of group A,B,C was 2.46± 2.06、3.60 ± 2.24 and 5.03 ± 2.66 respectively.Compared with C group,the difference in group A and group B was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Compared with group B,the difference in group A was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusions Moxibustion and acupuncture can effectively improve patients total body sub-health state of fatigue.Moxibustion treatment showed better effects in alleviating physical fatigue,

Objective To investigate the effect of minimally invasive surgery in patients with midge-upper advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Methods 167 patients with middle-upper AGC underwent total gastrectomy+D2 lymph node dissection from January 2009 to December 2013 were enrolled in the study and divided into laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy (LATG) group (n = 57) and open total gastrectomy (OTG) group (n = 110). Baseline data, operative, postoperative data and follow-up result were compared between the two groups. Results There were no significant differences in baseline data between the two groups (P > 0.05); The intraoperative blood loss and incision length in LATG group were significantly lower than that in OTG group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in operation time, ratio of intraoperative blood transfusion, distance between the upper margin and the tumor, the number of lymph node dissection between two groups (P > 0.05); Postoperative first aerofluxus time, ecovery liquid diet time, postoperative hospitalization days and VAS score of pain in 3 d after operation in LATG group were significantly lower than that in OTG group (P < 0.05). There was no significant differences in incidences of postoperative complication between two groups (P > 0.05); There was no patient dying within 30 d after surgery.The median follow-up time was 38.2 months (1~58 months). Postoperative 1, 3 year overall survival rates in LATG group and OTG group were 87.7% and 83.6%, 71.9% and 64.5%, and there were no significant differences between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion For patients with middle-upper AGC, LATG+D2 lymph node dissection has lots of advantages including less intraoperative blood loss, shorter incision, faster postoperative recovery, shorter hospital stay and so on, which is safe and effective, and their short-and long-term results are satisfactory.

Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture of Siguan on contents of hippocampal monoamine neurotransmitter NE, DA and 5-HT in post-stroke depression rats, and throught it to probe the possible mechanism of anti-depressive.Methods 60 rats were divided into five groups randomly, as the normal group, MCAO group, PSD group, Siguan group, and fluoxetine group. Except the normal group, the rats of other groups were used to establish left side of the MCAO models by modified Longa filament method. PSD model was prepared by living alone in combination with mild stimulation by chronic unpredictable after stroke model success 7 days. The Siguan group was received electroacupuncture at Siguan point, and the fluoxetine group was gastrically perfused with fluoxetine, and all rats were received sugar consumption experiment in different period of treatment. After continuous treatment for 21 days, contents of NE, DA and 5-HT in hippocampal tissue were measured with RP-HPLC-fluorescent method. Results At the seventh day, compared with PSD group, the ratio of sugar water consumption(51.09%± 3.68%vs. 38.97%± 4.07%)has a significant increase in the Siguan group(P<0.01), while no significant changes in the fluoxetine group. At the fourteenth day, the ratio of sugar water consumption(68.25%± 4.69%vs. 39.64%± 4.49%)continued to rise in the Siguan group, the fluoxetine group also had significantly increased compared with the PSD group, the two groups were significantly higher than those in the PSD group (P<0.01), but the Siguan group was higher than that of the fluoxetine group(P<0.01).At the twenty-first day, the ratio of sugar water consumption (41.56%± 2.12%vs. 41.56%± 2.12%)increased further in the Siguan group and the fluoxetine group, which was significantly higher than those in the PSD group (P<0.01), but the Siguan group and fluoxetine group had no obvious difference(P>0.05). Compared with the PSD group,the contents of NE(244.93 ± 44.57 ng/g vs. 129.27 ± 11.68 ng/g), DA(86.80 ± 14.64 ng/g vs.44.22 ± 7.60 ng/g), 5-HT(526.31 ± 54.41 ng/g vs.221.56 ± 39.57 ng/g) in the hippocampus tissues were significantly higher than many in the Siguan group and fluoxetine group(P<0.01), but the difference between the two groups was not obvious(P>0.05). Conclusion The symptoms of PSD rats pleasure disappeared can be improved by electroacupuncture atSiguan. Its mechanism may be related with the increased contents of monoamine neurotransmitters in the hippocampus of rats.
