0.05).Conclusion The PAI-1 genotype perhaps may not be one of independent risk factors for both T2DM and FA-IMT in T2DM patients.

Objective To summarize the techniques of anatomical liver resection for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The clinical data of 125 patients with solitary HCC who underwent anatomical liver resection at the Zhongshan Hospital from January 2005 to December 2006 were retrospectively analysed.The inflow and outflow of hepatic segments to be resected were selectively clamped,then the main branches of portal vein and hepatic artery were ligated,and the ischemic hepatic segments were resected en bloc.Kelly forceps were used to crash and clamp the liver cut surface.The stumps of left and right hepatic ducts were continuously sutured with Prolene sutures.For tumors with the size above 10 cm in diameter,hepatectomy with anterior approach and liver hanging maneuver were adopted.Bile leakage was checked by injecting methylene blue or covering a gauze on the liver cut surface.Results The mean blood loss of all patients was 250 ml(100-6000 ml),and 32 of them needed blood transfusion.The morbidity was 23%(29/125).No patient died within 30 days after the operation,and 6%(5/83)of patients were found with residual tumor by postoperative arteriography.Conclusion Anatomical liver resection may improve the safety of operation,prevent the injury of great vessels and thus improve the efficacy.

Objective To evaluate the clinical repair effects of the reconstruction of different vermilion tubercle after primary cleft lip repair.Methods According to the tight lip deformity and dif ferent degrees of defect of the vermilion tubercle and exposing the gums and the crown of the anterior incisors,178 patients after primary repair of the cleft lip from Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Xiangya Hospital,Central South University were classified into the tight lip deformity and four grades of whistling deformities.According to different deformities and defects,the different operative techniques were used as follows:classic Abbé flap and modified Abbé flap were used for tight lip deformity;the bilateral advanced myomucosal flaps of lip were used for the grade Ⅰ;modified Abbé flap was used for repairing the grade Ⅱ and the grade Ⅲ whistling deformities;for grade Ⅳ whistling deformity,we mainly used classic Abbé flap.The follow-up after operation was performed,all patient's Cupid's bow,Cupid's bow peak,the vermilion tubercle and the height and width of the upper lip were observed.The scarring of the upper lip was also observed.Results The follow-up after operation was performed from six months to ninteen years,all the 187 patient's anatomical structures of the upper lip were nearly normal after recovery.The all patients showed an obvious Cupid's bow,Cupid's bow peak,the vermilion tubercle and the height and width of the upper lip.The relation of the upper lip and lower lip was harmonious.The scarring of the upper lip was not obvious 2 years after operation.Conclusions The different repair methods are chosen to repair different deformity and defect that has an important clinical value.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of siege scheme of TCM for acute cerebral infarction bowel and visceral strike (block pattern). Methods Totally 110 patients were randomly divided into TCM siege scheme group (55 cases) and control group (55 cases) by randomized parallel controlled study with foresight and multicenter. The control group was treated with the standardized treatment, and TCM siege scheme group was treated with TCM siege scheme, including mild hypothermia TCM pillow therapy, TCM rectal enema, and other multiple treatments based on the standardized treatment. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), the time of pulling out urine tube and nasal feeding tube, and the number of tracheotomy caused by illness changes of the two groups were compared. Results The baseline data of two groups have good comparability (P>0.05). On 10, 15 d of treatment, the number of lucid people in the TCM siege scheme group was significantly more than that in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, treatment group had less number of tracheotomy, and shorter time of success pulling out urine tube and nasogastric feeding tube (P<0.05). Conclusion TCM siege scheme can improve the consciousness of ischemic stroke in patients with acute cerebral infarction bowel and visceral strike, reduce complications, shows shorter successful pull urine tube and nasogastric feeding, and provides guarantee conditions for further rehabilitation treatment.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane on the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in rats and the role of hippocampal glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3β).Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 250-300 g,aged 2 months,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =10 each):control group (group C) ; PTSD group (group P) ; sevoflurane group (group S) ; lithium chloride (LiC1) + sevoflurane group (group LS).Establishment of PTSD model:the rats received 15 footshocks (1 mA,1 s shocks with a variable intershock interval of 240-480 s) in room A on the first day.On the second day,the rats received 1 footshock after an adaptation of 192 s in room B where its context was completely different from room A,and then they were removed from room B 32 s later.The rats were placed in room B and observed for 512 s on the third day.Group C did not receive any treatment on the first day in room A,while the other three groups received 15 footshocks in room A.In addition,0.8％ sevoflurane was administrated while training in group S,and group LS received intraperitoneal LiCl 100 mg/kg at 30 min before entering room A,and then the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group S.The ratio of freezing was recorded in room B on the second and third days.Four rats in each group were randomly sacrificed at 2 h after training in room A on the first day and their hippocampal tissues were taken to detect the expression of GSK-3β and phosphorylated GSK-3β (p-GSK-3β).Results Compared with group C,the ratio of freezing was significantly increased on the third day and the p-GSK-3β expression was up-regulated in P and LS groups,and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group S.Compared with group P,the ratio of freezing was significantly decreased on the third day and the p-GSK-3β expression was down-regulated in group S,and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group LS.Compared with group S,the ratio of freezing was significantly increased on the third day and the p-GSK-3β expression was up-regulated in group LS.There was no significant difference in the ratio of freezing on the second day and expression of p-GSK-3β between the four groups.Conclusion Sevoflurane can inhibit the development of PTSD in rats,and enhancement of hippocampal GSK-3β activity may be involved in the mechanism.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical characteristics in ABO-incompatible allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(allo-PBSCT).Methods137 patients'clinical courses who accepted allo-PBSCT were retrospectively reviewed. Sixty-five cases of them were ABO-incompatible allo-PBSCT patients,including 32 ABO major mismatched cases,23 ABO minor mismatched cases and 10 ABO major and minor mismatched cases.Seventy-two ABO-identical cases were taken as control group.ResultsCompared with ABO-idential cases,the time of erythrocyte recovery after allo-PBSCT in ABO major and minor mismatched group was delayed [(73.2+10.3) d vs (97.5+10.4) d] (P ＜0.05).In ABO-incompatible group, the time of blood type switching in different ABO-incompatible types were found no significant difference (P ＞0.05) [ABO major mismatched:(45.7±17.3) d,ABO minor mismatched:(41.2+16.1) d and ABO major and minor mismatched:(48.4±20.9) d (P ＞ 0.05)].There were 8 cases who have a delayed time of blood type changing, including 6 cases demonstrated recipient-derived anti-A antibody. ConclusionABO-incompatible has no negative effect on allo-PBSCT.The time of erythrocyte reconstitution was delayed in ABO major and minor mismatched group.A delayed time of blood type switching tends to occur in ABO minor incompatible cases and patients who have anti-A antibody initially.

Objective To examine the epidemiology of kidney stone in Pudong New Area ofShanghai and analyze its risk factors. Methods 12 565 residents with the age above 16 years weresurveyed. All subjects needed to answer a questionnaire concerning their sex,age,geographic loca tions,occupation,education status and family history of renal calculi,etc. Ultrasound examinationwas used to diagnose the kidney stone. Results The average prevalence of kidney stone was 3.15%(396/12565),4. 05%(247/6096)in the men and 2.30%(149/6469) in the women,respectively (P<0. 05). The prevalence increased significantly with age of men,whereas the prevalence was highest forwomen aged 50-59. The prevalence between city and rural was not significantly different before age60 (2.58% vs 2. 62%,P>0. 05),whereas the prevalence were significantly different after age 60(6.28% vs 3.36%,P<0.05). The prevalence of subjects with a family history of renal calculi washigher than that without family history (32.02% vs 2.06%,P<0. 01). The prevalence in manage ment staff and vehicle drivers were the highest. Conclusions The prevalence of kidney stone in Pud ong New Area of Shanghai was lower than that in south of China. The relative risk increased in sub jects of aged men,women aged 50 59,with family history of renal calculi,management staff and ve hicle drivers. An understanding of the epidemiology particularly the interactions among different fac tors,may help lead to approach that reduce the risk of stone formation.
