Objective To compare the influences of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia(CSEA)and general anesthesia(GA)on patients who underwent laparoscopic gynecological operation.Methods A total of 60 patients of ASA Ⅰ~Ⅱ,were divided into two groups:the CSEA group and the general anesthesia group.Each group consisted of 30 patients.Glucose and cortisol levels were determined before anesthesia,10 minutes after anesthesia,10 minutes after pneumoperironeum and 10 minutes after abdominal deflation.Results No significant differences existed between the two groups on age,weight,operation time,pneumoperitoneum time,time to regain consciousness after operation,HR,SpO2,ECG and MABP(P>0.05)No significant difference was found in cortisol level between two groups at various time points(P>0.05).In the general anesthesia group,glucose level at 10 minutes after pneumoperitoneum was significantly lower than that before anesthesia(P<0.05),but no significant difference was found in glucose level between the two groups at other time points(P>0 05).At the same time,significant difference was found in postoperative complication rate between two groups(P<0.01).Conclusion Both CSEA and general anesthesia can effectively inhibit the patients'stress response in laparoscopic gynecological operation.

Objective To evaluate long-term changes in health-related quality of life (QOL) of patients with local advanced prostate cancer after intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) combined with androgen deprivation therapy.Methods The patients who met the criteria for this study were enrolled and were treated with IMRT combined with androgen deprivation.The total dose of radiation was 68.2Gy(2.2Gy per fraction).QOL was evaluated before and 3,12,36,48 and 60 months after treatment using the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite(EPIC),a validated tool that assesses four primary domains (urinary,bowel,sexual and hormonal).Results From 2002 to 2007,87 patients were enrolled.At each follow-up time point,the number of cases was 87,87,86,81,75,65,56 and 47,respectively.The median follow-up time was 76.8 months.Compared with baseline assessment,all of four domain scores were declined in follow-up assessments.The mean score of urinary,bowel and hormonal domains were significantly reduced.At 3 months after treatment,the scores of bowel domain were lowest,in which the total,function and symptom scores were 75.7,78.4 and 72.8,respectively.However,there was no statistically significant difference in the mean sexual domain score.The mean change scores in urinary incontinence and obstructive were-13.0±8.3 and-6.12±3.9,respectively.Conclusions IMRT combined with androgen deprivation therapy was well tolerated in patients with local advanced prostate cancer.QOL was decreased in urinary,bowel and hormonal toxicity,most of which could be tolerated in five years.

Background and purpose: Docetaxel plus prednisone chemotherapy can improve the patients' survival for castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Angiogenesis inhibitors can also inhibit the growth of tumor. The curative effect of combined treatment is still not clear. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of docetaxel plus prednisone combined with thalidomide in treating castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients with bone metastasis. Methods:A total number of 78 CRPC patients were selected in Fuzhou General Hospital from Dec. 2008 to Jun. 2015. Seventy-eight patients were divided into two groups: 40 patients in chemotherapy group (docetaxel plus prednisone) and 38 patients in combined treatment group (docetaxel plus prednisone combined with thalidomide). A total number of 78 subjects were evaluated by the effective rate, the remission rate of bone pain, the prostate specific antigen (PSA) progression-free surviv-al, the overall survival and adverse effect. Results: The response rate (65.79%) and the remission rate of bone pain (86.84%) in combined treatment group were both higher than those in chemotherapy group (40.00% and 60.00%, P<0.05). The PSA progression-free survival (4.13 months), progression-free survival (4.25 months) and the overall survival (18.06 months) in combined treatment group were all longer than those in chemotherapy group (3.54, 3.75 and 16.26 months). The PSA pro-gression-free survival was significantly longer in combined treatment group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the overall survival between two groups (P>0.05). The rates of adverse effects including peripheral neuritis and lethargy in combined treatment group (26.32% and 55.26%) were higher than those in chemotherapy group (5.00% and 17.50%, P<0.05). Conclusion: Thalidomide combined with docetaxel plus prednisone in CRPC patients with bone metastasis can prolong the PSA progression-free survival and overall survival. The adverse effects are mild. It may become a new choice of treatment for CRPC.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of heat-sensitive moxibustion plus point-toward-point needling in treating poststroke strephenopodia.Method Eighty patients with poststroke strephenopodia were randomized into a treatment group intervened by heat-sensitive moxibustion plus point-toward-point needling and a control group intervened by rehabilitation, 40 cases in each group. In addition to the basic treatment, the treatment group was given heat-sensitive moxibustion plus point-toward-point needling, and the control group was given rehabilitation treatment. Holden's Functional Ambulation Classification (FAC), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) of the lower-limb motor function, and Tinetti Gait Assessment (TGA) were adopted for evaluation of the two groups, and the clinical efficacies were compared.ResultThe effective rate was 90.0% in the treatment group versus 77.5% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); after the treatment,there was a significant difference in comparing the Holden's FAC between the two groups (P<0.05); the FMA score changed significantly after the treatment in both groups (P<0.05), and there was a significant difference in comparing the FMA score between thetwo groups after the treatment (P<0.05); the TGA score changed significantly after the intervention in both groups (P<0.05), and there was a significant difference in comparing the TGA score between the two groups after the intervention (P<0.05).ConclusionHeat-sensitive moxibustion plus point-toward-point needling can produce a significant efficacy in treating poststroke strephenopodia, as it can enhance the effective rate and improve the lower-limb motor function.

【Objective】 To investigate the feasibility of laparoscopic simple prostatectomy (LSP) in the treatment of large volume benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). 【Methods】 Clinical and follow-up data of 30 patients with large volume BPH treated with LSP in our hospital during Feb.2019 and Dec.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent extraperitoneal LSP operation. The perioperative and 1-12 month postoperative follow-up data were analyzed. 【Results】 The average prostate volume was (92.4±38.9) mL, operation time (125±45) min, and weight of resected prostate (60.25±16.90) g. The hemoglobin decreased by (12.21±7.25) g/d after operation. No blood transfusion was needed. There was no need for bladder irrigation after operation in 21 cases (70%), and 9 cases (30%) had bladder irrigation time of (0.95±0.49) d. The postoperative catheter indwelling time was (6.92±2.51) d, and hospital stay (5.36±1.63) d. During the follow-up of (9.25±5.4) months, there was 1 case of postoperative intestinal obstruction (Clavien-Dindo grade II), 1 case of transient urinary incontinence (Clavien-Dindo grade I), and 1 case of delayed hematuria (Clavien-Dindo grade I). No urethral stricture occurred. The maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), post-void residual urine volume (PVR), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and quality of life (QoL) 3 months after operation were significantly improved compared with those before operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in sexual function before and after operation (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 LSP is safe and effective in the treatment of large volume BPH. It has advantages of complete resection of glands, minor bleeding and short postoperative bladder irrigation time. However, it still needs to be confirmed by a prospective control study of large samples.
