Objective To investigate the effects and possible mechanism of Fructus lycii on renal calcium oxalate stone formation in rats. Methods Wistar rats were divided into several groups according to different stone inducer (cigarette smoking, ethylene glycol solution drinking or combination of both), either Fructus lycii infusion interference or not and different interfering concentrations (10% and 25%). Besides, a blank control group was set. After treatment for 40 d, 24 h urine was collected, and renal tissue samples were obtained. The concentrations of calcium, oxalate and citric acid in urine were measured. The deposit condition of calcium oxalate crystals in nephric tubules was observed and scored. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and activity of total-superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) in renal tissues were detected. Apoptosis cells in kidney were observed with TUNEL staining, and index of apoptosis was calculated. Results Compared with blank control group, the urine calcium concentration in group of combination of cigarette smoking and ethylene glycol solution drinking were significantly higher (P<0.01), the scores of calcium oxalate crystals in renal tubules, the levels of MDA in renal tissues and the index of apoptosis of renal tubule epithelial cells in groups of ethylene glycol solution drinking and combination with smoking were higher, while the concentrations of citric acid in urine and activity of T-SOD in renal tissues were lower. Ten percent and 25% Fructus lycii infusion significantly decreased the urine concentrations of calcium in group of combination of cigarette smoking and ethylene glycol solution drinking (P<0.01), decreased the scores of calcium oxalate crystals in renal tubules, the levels of MDA in renal tissues and the index of apoptosis of renal tubule epithelial cells in groups of ethylene glycol solution drinking and combination with smoking, and increased the concentrations of citric acid in urine and activity of T-SOD in renal tissues. There was no significant dose-effect relationship between two concentrations of Fructus lycii infusion. Conclusion Fructus lycii infusion can effectively inhibit the formation of renal calcium oxalate stone in rats with smoking and/or ethylene glycol drinking by reducing the free radicals and apoptosis of renal tissue, decreasing the concentration of elements for stone formation and increasing the concentration of elements for inhibition of stone formation in urine.

Objective To investigate the oxalate-degrading abilities of 10 strains of lactic acid bacteria for yoghourt fermentation. Methods Ten different strains of lactic acid bacteria (L.acidophilus, L.paracasei, Enterococcaceae faecium, B. lactis, B. adolescentis, B. infantis, B.longum, Lactococcus lactis subsp. Cremori, L.bulgaricus and S. thermophilus) were cultured separately in culture fluid containing 5 mmol/L oxalate. Seventy-two hours after culture, the concentrations of oxalate and lactic acid bacteria were detected. Besides, blank control cultured without lactic acid bacteria was established. Results Seventy-two hours after culture, the concentrations of all the 10 strains of lactic acid bacteria were significantly higher than those before culture (P<0.01). Compared with blank control, the concentrations of oxalate in the culture fluid with 10 strains of lactic acid bacteria decreased 72 h after culture, and were significantly different from those before culture for L.acidophilus, Lactococcus lactis subsp. Cremori, B.longum, B. adolescentis and B. lactis (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The oxalate-degrading rate of B. lactis was the highest (29.03%), and that of Enterococcaceae faecium was the lowest (0.23%). The correlation analysis revealed that there was no significant correlation between times of proliferation and oxalate-degrading rates (r=0.435 7, P=0.208 2). Conclusion All of the 10 strains of lactic acid bacteria for yoghourt fermentation have the ability of oxalate degrading, and there is no correlation between lactic acid bacteria proliferation and oxalate degradation.

Objective To compare the effects of kidney calcium oxalate calculus resistant acidophilus milk (KCOCRAM) versus commercially available acidophilus milk (CAAM) on urinary oxalate excretion in rats. Methods Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=10), and were bred with KCOCRAM (KCOCRAM group), CAAM (CAAM group), sterilized KCOCRAM (sterilized KCOCRAM group), sterilized CAAM (sterilized CAAM group) and water (blank control group), respectively for a consecutive 20 d, with 4 mL/d for each rat. The data of body weight and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion volume were obtained 1 d before breeding and every 4 d during breeding. Results During breeding, body weight and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion volume of each group increased with time. There was no significant difference in urinary oxalate excretion volume among sterilized KCOCRAM group, sterilized CAAM group and blank control group (P>0.05). The increase tendency of KCOCRAM group and CAAM group was weaker than that of the other three groups. The urinary oxalate excretion volume was significantly lower in KCOCRAM group than that in sterilized KCOCRAM group from 8 d after breeding, and that was significantly lower in CAAM group than that in sterilized CAAM group from 12 d after breeding (P<0.05). The urinary oxalate excretion volume was significantly lower in KCOCRAM group than that in CAAM group from 16 d after breeding (P<0.05). There was a positive correlationship between body weight and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion volume in each group (r=0.97-0.99, P<0.01). Conclusion Both KCOCRAM and CAAM can reduce urinary oxalate excretion in rats, and the former has a more favourable effect.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) or endoscopic retro-grade cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) combined with la-paroscopic treatment of gallbladder and common bile duct stones. Methods 80 patients suffered cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis were selected from June 2013 to June 2015. According to surgical method, patients were di-vided into EST + LC group (38 cases) and LCBDE + LC + ERCP group (42 cases). Clinical data, treatment effects, postoperative complications rate related indicators of liver function were compared between the two groups. Results The maximum diameter of stones, diameter of common bile duct and the number of stones in LCBDE + LC + ERCP group were significantly longer and larger than EST + LC group, the differences were statistically significant ( <0.05). Compared with EST + LC group, single success rate of ERCP + LC + LCBDE group was higher, operative time was shorter, but its operation cost was higher, the differences were statistically significant ( < 0.05). The suc-cess rate, rate of conversion to laparotomy and hospital stay between the two groups showed no significant difference ( > 0.05). Postoperative complication rate of ERCP + LC + LCBDE was 21.42 %(9/42), and postoperative compli-cation rate of EST+ LC was 26.32 % (9/42), the difference between the two groups were not clear ( > 0.05). The serum direct bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in the two groups were increased slightly after one day of operation, and those indexes returned to normal levels after three days of operation. Conclusion The operation methods of LCBDE+LC+ERCP and EST+ LC are both effective treatment for compli-cated choledocholithiasis. The success rate of LCBDE+LC+ERCP is higher, the operative time is shorter, which is good for larger stones.
