Objective To investigate whether the laparoscopic portoenterostomy is superior to open surgery in the treatment of biliary atresia.Methods A total of 26 children with type Ⅲ biliary atresia underwent laparoscopic portoenterostomy from August 2003 to September 2005(Laparoscopic Group).The operation was performed under 4-port laparoscopy.The hepatic portal was fully exposed and mobilized and the gallbladder was removed.The cut end of the duct was widened by incising along the anterior wall of the hepatic duct following the excision of the narrow segment.By using intraoperative bile duct endoscopy,the optimal level of resection of the common hepatic duct was determined without endangering the orifices of the hepatic ducts or leaving any redundant duct.The Roux-en-Y jejunal loop was fashioned extracorporeally by exteriorizing the jejunum for 40 cm in length distally through the umbilical incision and passed up retrocolically followed by an end-to-side hepaticojejunostomy.They were compared with other group of 34 children,with the same age range and diagnosis,who underwent open portoenterostomy(Open Group) in the same period,in respect of the operative time,the blood loss,the liver functions,complications,the length of hospital stay,the hospitalization expenditure,and the short-term outcomes. Results As compared with the Open Group,the Laparoscopic Group presented a less blood loss(15.4?5.0 ml vs 33.8?19.4 ml;t=-4.709,P=0.000) and a higher hospitalization expenditure(19 153.9?619.5 yuan vs 15 116.7?898.4 yuan;(t=19.607),P=0.000).There were no significant differences between the two groups in the operative time and the length of hospital stay.The serum levels of total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,ALT,and AST were deceased more significantly in the Laparoscopic Group than in the Open Group.Complications happened in 1 case in the Laparoscopic Group(incisional hernia) and in 4 cases in the Open Group(1 case of acute hepatic failure,1 case of incision rupture,and 2 cases of wound infection),the incidence of complications being not significant(?~2=0.395,P=0.530).Follow-up observations at 4 postoperative month found the jaundice had subsided in 13 cases in the Laparoscopic Group(50%) and in 18 cases in the Open Group(53%). Conclusions Laparoscopic portoenterostomy is a minimally invasive,safe,and effective procedure for the treatment of pediatric biliary atresia.

Objective To report the medium-term follow-up results for deep venous thrombosis(DVT) after total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods Between July 2003 and March 2004,55 patients(63 knees)who had had TKA were followed up for DVT.In follow-ups 1 to 2 weeks after TKA,their clinic symptoms,Doppler ultrasonograms and venograms were analyzed.In the following out-patient follow-ups done at every six months,we observed their clinic symptoms and Doppler uhrasonograms for the operated lower extremity.Venography was done only for those who had severe DVT symptoms.Results The venography one week after TKA conformed that DVT occurred in 34 patients(41 knees,61.8%).Two weeks after operation,DVT vanished in 12 cases,but deterio- rated to the proximal part in two cases.The follow-ups averaged 36.6 months(range,32 to 40 months).The results at five time points showed that the incidence of DVT did no decrease with lapse of time(P＞0.05).Conclusion No matter whether DVT occurs in the perioperative period,incidence of DVT in the medium term varies little.

Objective To explore the categories and precautions of complications after laparoscopic total cyst excision with Roux-en-Y hepatoenterostomy for congenital choledochal cyst in children. Methods Laparoscopic cyst excision with Roux-en-Y hepatoenterostomy was performed in 66 cases of congenital choledochal cyst from July 2001 to June 2006. Their median age was 3.8 years (range, 2 months ~ 28 years). The choledochal cyst was classified as cystic type in 61 cases, with a diameter ranged 2.5~18 cm, and fusiform type in 5 cases, with a diameter ranged 1.2~2.2 cm. Nine cases were associated with hepatic ductal stenosis; they underwent a laparoscopic excision of the cyst with a ductoplasty. Results The laparoscopic operation was successfully completed in all the 66 patients, with a mean operation time of 3.8 h (2.6~9.5 h) and a mean hospital stay of 4.5 d (3~8 d). Early complications included 2 cases of bile leakage (spontaneous recovery in 1 case, and an open surgery required in 1 case because of obstructed drainage, with anastomotic leakage identified and re-anastomosis performed during the operation), 1 case of hyperkalemia (10.8 mmol/L at 7 h after operation, resulting in heart failure and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and died of renal failure on the 3rd postoperative day), and 2 cases of stress ulcer (spontaneously relieved). There were no infections of the abdominal cavity or the wound. Long-term complications included 1 case of intestinal obstruction (open exploration showed intestinal adhesion and necrosis, and an enterectomy with enteroanastomosis was given). No anastomotic stenosis and postoperative cholangitis were encountered.Follow-up observations for 6~56 months (median, 21 months) were conducted in 65 survived cases, B-ultrasonography found no bilestone, and liver functions were in normal limits. Conclusions Laparoscopic total cyst excision with Roux-en-Y hepatoenterostomy is a complicated operation with high risks. Some complications are similar to those after conventional operations, such as bile leakage, stress ulcer, and intestinal obstruction. Hyperkalemia is perhaps the most serious one, which maybe related to carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum. It is essential to monitoring hyperkalemia in postoperative period.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the efficacy and safety of high dose methotrexate (HDMTX)chemotherapy in the treatment of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia through blood concentration monitoring.METHODS:27 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who received high dose of HDMTX (1.5～4.0 g/m2)for 55 times were involved in this study,the blood samples were collected timely and the blood concentration of methotrexate was determined,the efficacy of the chemotherapy was evaluated according to blood MTX concentration at the ending of its intravenous drip (12h),the calcium folinate relief scheme was determined from the MTX serum concentration in terminal elimination phase.RESULTS: The times for 2.0 g/m2,3.0 g/m2 and 4.0 g/m2 different dosage of methotrexate groups with blood concentration maintained above osmotic concentration(2?10-5mol/L)at the end of intravenous drip (12h)were respectively 75%,92.1%and 100%of the total chemotherapy times.Only one patient was observed with large area of impairment of skin and mucosa,and no severe irreversible adverse reaction were observed in the other cases.CONCLUSIONS: MTX serum concentration monitoring is helpful for mastering the rational rescue dosage of MTX and calcium folinate so as to ensure the efficacy and safety of the chemotherapy.

Abstract: Objective　To study the characteristics and diagnostic efficacy of Rose-Bengal plate agglutination test (RBPT), standard-tube agglutination test (SAT) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in the diagnosis of brucellosis. Methods　A total of 489 suspected brucellosis patients with complete records, who admitted to Xing'anmeng People's Hospital from March 2020 to May 2021, were selected as the subjects. The diagnostic value of SAT, RBPT and ELISA for brucellosis was analyzed with exposure history + clinical symptoms + serological test/brucellosis isolation and culture as the gold standard. Results　Of the 489 suspected patients, 183 (37.42%) were diagnosed with brucellosis, while 234 (47.85%), 148 (30.27%) and 195 (39.88%) were positive by RBPT, ELISA and SAT, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of RBPT in the diagnosis of brucellosis were 95.08%, 80.39%, 74.36%, 96.47%, and 85.89%, respectively; the values of the above parameters for ELISA were 78.69%, 98.69%, 97.30%, 88.56%, and 91.21%, respectively; those values of SAT were 98.36%, 95.10%, 92.31%, 98.98%, and 96.32%, respectively. The sensitivity of RBPT was significantly higher than ELISA, but the specificity and accuracy were significantly lower than ELISA (all P<0.05). The sensitivity and accuracy of SAT diagnosis were significantly higher than ELISA, but the specificity was significantly lower than ELISA (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference between SAT and RBPT in the sensitivity of diagnosis, but the specificity and accuracy were significantly higher than those of RBPT (P<0.05). Conclusion　RBPT and SAT have high sensitivity in diagnosis of brucellosis, while ELISA has high specificity in diagnosis. RBPT with high sensitivity and convenient operation can be used for primary screening in field detection, and then the other two methods can be used for rechecking, so as to further improve the efficiency and accuracy of diagnosis of brucellosis.

The morphological indexes of the Scuophularia ningpoensis seedlings including the longth, diameter and weight were measured, clustering analysis was used to set up the standard quality grading of seedlings of S. Ningpoensis by SPSS. Field experiment was carried out to measure the indicators of plants growth and development, the yield and the quality. The results showed that the growth and yield of class I seedlings were better than those of class II and III. The content of main active ingredients was affected barely by seedlings classification. To ensure the quality, class II seedlings or above should be used for plantation. The established quality classification standard of S. ningpoensis seedlings was scientific and feasible, and provides the basis for the standardized cultivation of S. ningpoensis.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for implementing relevant policies and measures,and promote rational drug use. METHODS:The cognition(questionnaire)and application(prescription spot checks)about antibiotics and glucocorticoids by 191 rural doctors from 14 township hospitals and 18 health room in area A,B and C(representing the economically developed areas, moderately developed areas and undeveloped areas)were investigated,and the results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS:Total-ly 382 questionnaires were sent out(191 for antibiotics and 191 for glucocorticoids),and 382 were effectively received with effec-tive recovery of 100%;and 2 300 prescriptions were checked. Results of questionnaire showed,there were still some misunder-standings and blindness among the rural doctors'cognition and application about antibiotics and glucocorticoids,the usage of β-lac-tam was not fully grasped,part of the empirical use of antibiotics and drug treatment was still not entirely clear,more than 40%had no clear ideas about the classification and contraindications of hormones,and more than half of them didn't know the Glucocor-ticoids Clinical Practice Guidelines;results of prescription spot checks showed,there were regional differences about the proportion of antibiotics and glucocorticoids,area A had the highest proportion among 3 areas,accounting for 60.9% and 18.9%,respective-ly. And area C showed highest proportion about unreasonable prescriptions,accounting for 22.5%. CONCLUSIONS:The cognition and reasonable use of rural doctors for antibiotics and glucocorticoids still needs to be strengthened. It is suggested to take effective measures,formulate and implement the corresponding supervision system,strengthen antibiotics and glucocorticoids knowledge training for rural doctors and fully implement the the principles of rational drug use to improve the rational drug use.
