Objective:To discuss the application of water-aided colonoscopy in the enteroscopy, and compare with traditional air insufflations colonoscopy so as to analyze the efficacy and safety of clinical enteroscopy.Methods: 248 patients accepted with non-anesthesia colonoscopy were enrolled in this study and they were divided into two groups (water-aided group,n=124, air insufflations group,n=124) as the random number table. All clinical data of two groups were collected, and the bowel preparation statuses of patients was evaluated when the colonoscopes were taken out. During detection, the success rate of intubation, the entrance time of colonoscope, the withdrawal time of colonoscope and the total time of examinations were recorded. After detection, the pains score of patients were recorded and evaluated, and a series of auxiliary operation in the process, such as the change of body position, abdominal compression and the adjustment for hardness were recorded. Results: The differences of bowel preparation status scores of left colon, transverse colon, right colon and the whole colon between two groups were not statistically significant(t=0.98,t=0.85,t=1.07,t=1.51;P>0.05). The difference of success rate of intubation between two groups was no significant(x2=0.73,P>0.05). The entrance time, the withdrawal time of colonoscope and the total time of intubation of water-aided group were significantly higher than these of air insufflations group, while the VAS of water-aided group was significantly lower than that of air insufflations group(t=5.78,t=3.85,t=5.64, t=10.25;P<0.05). Besides, there were no significant differences in the usage rates of abdominal compression, hardness adjustment and total usage rate of auxiliary operation between two groups(t=0.92,t=1.58, t=2.07;P>0.05).Conclusion: The water-aided colonoscopy can relieve pain of patients, and it doesn't affect the success rate of intubation for cecum.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy of POEM treating patient with achalasia of cardia and observe the risk factor of effecting curative efficacy.Methods: 66 patients with achalasia of cardia who were treated by using POEM were enrolled in this study, and series of indicators of esophagus dynamics including LESRP, LESP, LESRR and LESL were detected in pre and post operation. Clinical symptom score system(Eckardt score) of achalasia of cardia was adopted to evaluate the effect of surgical treatment for patients at the pre and post operation 7d, and the diameter of widest part of esophagus at pre and post operation 7d were detected. The incidence rate of pneumoderm, substernal ache, pulmonary infection, pleural effusion, tunnel bleeding, postoperative reflux and esophageal perforation and other complications were analyzed and the relative risk factors of effecting curative effect were observed.Results: The LESRP and LESP of patients with achalasia of cardia of post-operative 7d were significantly lower than that of pre-operative 7d(t=12.74,t=17.56,P<0.05), while the LESRR and LESL of post operative 7d were significantly higher than that of pre-operative 7d(t=9.10,t=14.86,P<0.05) , respectively. And the Eckardt score and widest diameter of post-operative 7d were significantly lower than that of pre-operation(t=19.49, t=7.83,P<0.05), respectively. Besides, the incidence rate of complication of patients in post-operation was 48.48%. As the results of Logistic regression, age, Chicago type and Ling type were the risk factors that affect curative effect of POEM for achalasia of chardia. And as the analysis, the prognosis was better when the patient's age was less than 60 years, Chicago II type and Ling type.Conclusion: POEM can significantly improve the indicators of esophagus dynamics, and the complication will be few and the curative effect will be exact in middle and short term of post-operation by using this method. Therefore, it is a safe and effective surgical mode.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare Tacrolimus niosomes (Tac-NS) and evaluate their characteristics in vitro. METHODS:Tac-NS were prepared by a film hydration-ultrasonic method. Using the comprehensive score of encapsulation efficiency (EE%), drug-loading amount,mean particle size and PDI as the evaluation index,orthogonal design was used to optimize the concentration of sorbitan monostearate(Span-60),mole ratio of Span-60 to cholesterol,mole ratio of Span-60 to SDC. The morphology,mean particle size,PDI,Zeta-potential and EE%of Tac-NS were investigated. Accumulative percutaneous penetration(Q)and accumula-tive retention amount(Qs)of Tac-NS and physical mixture of Tac and NS were compared by percutaneous penetration test in vitro. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was as follows as Span-60 0.025 mol/L,mole ratio of Span-60 to cholesterol 10∶1,mole ratio of Span-60 to SDC 15∶1,drug-loading amount of 5%. Tac-NS was spherical and distributed evenly,but hardly congregated.The mean particle size,PDI,Zeta-potential and EE% were (233.0 ± 6.48) nm,0.266 ± 0.021,(-41.7 ± 0.32) mV and (76.83 ± 4.61)%,respectively. The results of in vitro permeability study showed that Qs of Tac-NS was 2.4 times of physical mixture;in ad-dition,Q of the two were similar. CONCLUSIONS:Tac-NS,owning high EE%,small particle size,uniform distribution and ide-al permeation effect,is prepared successfully.
