The clinical data of 143 patients with type Ⅱ a hepatolithiasis with normal function of the sphincter of Oddi were analyzed.The patients were divided into two groups at random.The data of the 2 groups of patients were compared on the operating time,hospitalization,rates of complication,residual stone rates and recurrence rates.The A group patients underwent laparoscopic video choledochoscopic hepaticocholangiolithotomy,T-tube drainage and choledochoscopic lithotomy.The B group patients underwent laparoscopic video hepatectomy and choledochoscopic lithotomy.For most of the patients in the A group,the treatment had the advantages of less trauma,less complications and quicker recovery.There was no significant differences in residual stone rates and recurrence rates between the two groups.As it was difficult to remove stones in the caudate lobes of Ⅱ a type patients in A group due to the sharp angle between the hepatic duct and bile ducts of the caudate lobe,individualized programs should be adopted according to the location of stones on individual patients.

Objectives:To investigate the predictive effect of regional homogeneity (ReHo) from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) in acute phase on memory function of chronic phage in ischemic stroke patients and the effects of residual learning (REL) on the predictive performance of machine learning models.Methods:From June 2019 to June 2021, rs-fMRI data of one-week after stroke (acute phase) were collected from 35 first-time ischemic stroke patients, and their memory scores were assessed by the Rey auditory verbal learning test (RAVLT) at 6 months after stroke (chronic phase). Using ReHo from rs-fMRI data in acute phase of ischemic stroke patients, the support vector regression (SVR) and the REL-based SVR (REL-SVR) were constructed to predict the patients’ memory scores at 6 months after stroke, and the performance of the two models was compared using Pearson correlation coefficient.Results:Based on the ReHo from acute phase, the correlation coefficient between the predicted values and the true scores from the SVR model was r=0.524, P=0.001, while the correlation coefficient obtained by the REL-SVR model was r=0.671, P<0.001. Brain regions with relatively higher weights such as Temporal_Pole_Mid_R (weight value: 1.03), Temporal_Mid_R(weight value: 1.03), Temporal_Inf_R (weight value: 1.03), Occipital_Mid_R (weight value: 0.57), Frontal_Mid_L (weight value: 0.32), Frontal_Sup_Medial_L (weight value: 0.53), SupraMarginal_L (weight value: 1.54), Calcarine_L (weight value: 0.65), Lingual_L (weight value: 0.58), Cuneus_L (weight value: 0.65), Precuneus_L (weight value: 0.83), cerebellum(weight value>1.0) made larger contributions to the prediction model. Conclusions:ReHo in the acute-phase can effectively predict memory in the chronic phase of ischemic stroke patients. Furthermore, REL can improve the performance of the traditional SVR model and achieve higher predictive accuracy.

OBJECTI VE To optimize the extraction technology of the leaves of Dimocarpus longan according to flavonoids and phenolic acids. METHODS The contents of gallic acid ,protocatechuic acid ,ethyl gallate ,quercetin,luteolin and kaempferol in the leaves of D. longan were determined by HPLC. Based on single factor test ,with the ethanol volume fraction ,solid-liquid ratio and extraction time as factors ,using comprehensive scores of the contents of above six components as indexes ,the extraction technology of the leaves of D. longan was optimized by Box-Behnken response surface methodology. RESULTS The optimal extraction technology included ethanol volume fraction of 100%,solid-liquid ratio of l ∶ 7(g/mL),extraction time of 90 min, extraction temperature of 80 ℃. After 3 times of validation tests ,the average comprehensive score was 97.54(RSD=0.33%,n= 3),relative error of which with predicted score (99.05)was 1.55%. CONCLUSIONS Box-Behnken response surface methodology combined with multi-index comprehensive score can be used for the extraction technology of the leaves of D. longan ,and the optimized extraction technology is stable and feasible.

OBJECTIVE To study the anti-inflammatory effect and mechanism of the ethanol extract and the drug-containing serum of Zhuang medicine Stahlianthus involucratus on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 cell inflammation. METHODS The drug-containing serum or blank serum was obtained by intragastrical administration of ethanol extract of S. involucratus (75.35 g/kg) or purified water. Using RAW264.7 cells as objects, RAW264.7 cells were divided into normal control group, LPS group (1 μg/mL), S. involucratus ethanol extract high-dose, medium-dose and low-dose groups (50, 25, 12.5 μg/mL), 4% or 15% blank serum groups, 4% or 15% blank serum+LPS groups, 4% or 15% drug-containing serum groups, 4% or 15% drug-containing serum+LPS groups. After culturing for 24 h, cell viability, the contents of nitric oxide tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukinand IL-6 as well as mRNA expressions of Toll-like eceptor 4 (TLR4) and nuclear factor κB (NF- κB) and protein expressions of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) were all detected in each group. 0771-4953513。E-mail:zhuhuagx@163.com RESULTS After culturing for 24 h, there was no statisticalsignificance in the difference of cell viability. Compared with normal control group, the contents of NO, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, mRNA expressions of TLR4 and NF-κB, and protein expressions of NOS and COX-2 were increased significantly in LPS group (P<0.05). Compared with 4% or 15% blank serum groups, the levels of above indexes were increased significantly in 4% or 15% blank serum+LPS groups (P<0.05). Compared with LPS group, the levels of above indexes were decreased significantly in S. involucratus ethanol extract groups (P<0.05). Compared with 4% or 15% blank serum+LPS groups, the levels of above indexes were decreased significantly in 4% or 15% drug-containing serum+LPS groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The ethanol extract and the drug-containing serum of S. involucratus can significantly alleviate LPS-induced inflammatory reaction, the mechanism of which may be associated with inhibiting the activity of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway, down-regulating the protein expressions of COX-2 and NOS, and reducing the release of inflammatory factors.
