Objective To investigate the value of laparoscopic operation in the diagnosis and treatment of closed abdominal injury.Methods Forty-seven cases of closed abdominal trauma were diagnosed and treated under laparoscope from December 2003 to July 2006.Under general anaesthesia or epidural anesthesia,an incision about 1 cm was made below the umbilicus.Then artificial pneumoperitoneum was established through an open tunnel or the veress needle(according to patient's condition).The camera was inserted through a trocar to clarify the diagnosis.If a confirmative diagnosis was not obtained,one or two additional trocars were inserted for further exploration. When the diagnosis was identified,another two or three trocars were inserted according to the location of lesions and corresponding treatment was performed based on pathogenetic condition.Results All the 47 cases were confirmatively diagnosed under laparoscope,including 15 cases of hepatorrhexis,13 cases of splenic rupture,9 cases of small intestinal rupture,3 cases of mesenteric injury,2 cases of pancreatic injury,2 cases of retroperitoneal hematoma,and 3 cases of intraabdominal multiple organ injury.Laparoscopic treatment was completed in 28 cases,a conversion to open surgery was needed in 17 cases,and conservative treatment was given in 2 cases of retroperitoneal hematoma.No surgical related death or complications happened.Conclusions Laparoscopy can be used in closed abdominal trauma to achieve a high diagnostic accuracy and to give a timely,effective,and proper treatment.

Objective:This paper is to propose a calibration model based on sine function which enables more choices to determine the functional relationship between the absorbance and the concentration of the tested substance.Methods:This paper uses Taylor series expansion and Levenberg-Marquardt to obtain the optimal parameters for the Sine model and then summarizes the characters of the Sine model. On the basis of these characters, this paper compares and evaluates the experimental data processed by the Sine model from four aspects: correctness, precision, linearity and correlation.Results:The generated sine function calibration model achieved deviations within ±3% of the national standard substance, precision ( CV%) less than 2%, and a linear correlation coefficient greater than 0.990 within the measurement range of 32-710 mg/L. The correlation coefficients between the sine model and other well-performing linear calibration models for 104 clinical samples were all greater than 0.990. Conclusions:The performance evaluation of the prealbumin assay kit using the sine function calibration model meets industry standards and shows good correlation with the results of clinical sample measurements. This indicates that the sine function calibration model can serve as a new calibration model for in vitro diagnostic research and clinical applications.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical application value of early enteral nutrition after laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodsA total of 49 patients with HCC undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between November 2013 and June 2014 were included in this prospective study. These patients were divided into the enteral nutrition group and the parenteral nutrition group according to the random number table method. Twenty-five patients were divided into the enteral nutrition group, among them, 20 were males and 5 were females with the average age of (49±17) years old. Twenty-four patients were divided into the parenteral nutrition group, among them, 18 were males and 6 were females with the average age of (51±14) years old. The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval had been received. The patients in the enteral nutrition group were given Ensure nutrient solution orally 24 h after operation for 7 d and the patients in the parenteral nutrition group were given parenteral nutrition 24 h after operation for 7 d. The total human albumin supplemented volume, recover time of gastrointestinal function, length of hospital stay after operation and hospitalization expenses of the two groups were compared. The nutritional support associated complications were observed. The data of the two groups were compared usingt test or Wilcoxon rank-sum test.ResultsThe total human albumin supplemented volume after operation of the enteral nutrition group was (40±11) g, which was signiifcantly lower than (45±10) g of the parenteral nutrition group(t=-16.089,P<0.05). The recovery time of gastrointestinal function after operation of the enteral nutrition group was (25±8) h, which was signiifcantly shorter than (43±11) h of the parenteral nutrition group (t=-36.928,P<0.05). The length of hospital stay after hepatectomy of the enteral nutrition group was (8±2) d, which was signiifcantly lower than (10±3) d of parenteral nutrition group (t=-12.025,P<0.05). The total hospitalization expenses of the enteral nutrition group were RMB 45,000 (37,000-61,000) yuan, which were signiifcantly lower than RMB 49,000 (42,000-67,000) yuan of the parenteral nutrition group (Z=-18.495,P<0.05). Five patients in the enteral nutrition group and 8 patients in the parenteral nutrition group developed abdominal distention and diarrhea, which were alleviated by adjusting doses or infusion speed. ConclusionsEarly enteral nutrition after laparoscopic hepatectomy for HCC is beneifcial to the postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function and may effectively reduce the ifnancial burden of patients. Moreover, its overall curative effect is better than that of parenteral nutrition.

ObjectiveTo analyse the current implementation status of Chinese herbal medicine （CHM） placebo and systematically evaluate the placebo effect in randomised controlled trials （RCTs） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） for the treatment of functional dyspepsia （FD）. MethodsA combination of medical subject terms and free words was used to search six databases， including PubMed， EMBASE， Cochrane Library， Web of Science， China National Knowledge Infrastructure， and Wanfang， for RCTs with CHM placebo group for FD published from January 31st， 1994 to September 30th， 2023. The dosage forms， composition， and methodological quality were collected and evaluated. The quality of the included articles was evaluated by Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool， and meta-analysis was performed on the CHM placebo response rate of patients with FD， and subgroup analysis and meta-regression was performed according to diagnostic criteria， efficacy criteria， duration of treatment， type of placebo， whether it contained active ingredient， and whether it evaluated placebo effects. ResultsA total of 34 publications were included involving 5046 participants， of which 2221 FD patients received CHM placebo treatment. Granules were the predominant placebo preparation， accounting for 71% （24/34）； 32.35% （11/34） of the studies added real CHM to the placebo， and only 12 （35%） of the studies described appearance， odour， and taste. The placebo response rate in FD patients in the placebo group was 41% （95% CI： 0.35 to 0.47； P＜0.01， I² = 87%）； there was significant difference between groups with different diagnostic criteria and different treatment durations （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， but there was no significant difference between the different efficacy evaluation criteria， the different placebo preparation， the presence of a low-dose active ingredient， and the presence or absence of placebo assessment （P＞0.05）. ConclusionThere was a significant CHM placebo effect in patients with FD， with granules as the main preparation of placebop. Different diagnostic criteria and different treatment times may affect the response rate of patients， and the addition of low-dose real medicine to the CHM placebos has not been seen to have an effect on the response rate. Clinical investigators have not paid enough attention to placebos， and there is a lack of uniform standards and norms for the preparation and evaluation of CHM placebos.

ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanism of modified Gegen Qinlian Decoction （葛根芩连汤） in treatment of ulcerative colitis （UC） from the view of intestinal mucosal epithelial barrier damage and epithelial mesenchymal transition. MethodsSixty male C57BL/6J mice were divided into blank group， model group， western medicine control group， and low-， medium-， and high-dose modified Gegen Qinlian Decoction groups， with 10 mice in each group. Except for the blank group， 3% dextran sodium sulfate （DSS） was used to induce colitis model by free drinking for 7 days， and on the first day of modelling， 6， 12， and 24 g/（kg·d） of modified Gegen Qinlian Decoction were given to the low-， medium-， and high-dose groups respectively， 5-aminosalicylic acid （5-ASA） 100 mg/（kg·d） given by gavage to western medicine control group， and 10 ml/kg distilled water were given to blank and model group by gavage， once a day for 7 days. Body mass of mice was recorded and disease activity index （DAI） scores were performed daily. The mice were anesthetized after 24h of the last administration and the colon was taken to observe the length of colon， HE staining was applied to observe the damage of colonic mucosa and score pathological states， Masson staining to detect the deposition of colonic collagen fibers， immunofluorescence to observe the distribution of F-actin in colonic mucosal epithelium， and immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of tight junction protein ZO-1， Occludin， E-cadherin and Vimentin.
