AIM:To find an efficient and simple surgical procedure of the external dacryocystorhinostomy ( EXT- DCR) in the treatment of chronic dacryocystitis.
METHODS:A total of 270 cases were performed in this retrospective study. A comparison of clinical effects and hemorrhage complications between the experimental group, in which 189 eyes of 167 patients that underwent traditional EXT-DCR without packing, and the control group, in which 121 eyes of 103 patients that underwent traditional EXT-DCR with Vaseline gauze were performed. The postoperative follow-up ranged from 6 to 36mo ( the mean follow-up was 15±3. 6mo).
RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the curative rates between the two groups (97. 9% vs 97. 5%, P>0. 05). But the incidence rate of moderate or severe postoperative nasal bleeding was lower in the experimental group (15. 9%, 30 eyes) than the control group (31. 4%, 38 eyes) and P<0. 01.
CONLUSION: The traditional EXT - DCR without packingis an effective procedure and is more effective in reducing moderate or severe postoperative bleeding when the intraoperative anastomose and the postoperative drainage are well done and the intraoperative bleeding is well controlled.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of anhydrous ethanol and lauromacrogol in the treatment of ovarian endometriosis cyst (OEC), and to provide evidence for more effective use of these two sclerotic drugs.Methods:Thirty-three cysts in 30 patients with OEC, who were admitted to Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province from February 2017 to June 2018, were treated by ultrasound interventional therapy, followed by catheter aspiration, saline cavity cleaning, anhydrous ethanol rinsing and sclerotherapy, and lauromacrogol alcohol 1∶1 mixed solution retained in the capsule (mixed group). The therapeutic effects were observed 6 and 12 months after operation. A total of 30 OEC in 28 cases admitted to the same hospital from 2013 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed after similar treatment steps, but the intracapsular retention fluid was anhydrous ethanol (ethanol group). A total of 28 OEC in 26 patients admitted to the same hospital from 2015 to 2017 were washed with normal saline, then washed with lauromacrogol and retained in the capsule with lauromacrogol (lauromacrogol group). The therapeutic effects of 6 and 12 months after treatment between the three groups were compared.Results:According to the classification of cure, marked effect and inefficacy, there was a weak correlation among the three groups. The mixed group did not tend to be ineffective, while the lauromacrogol group tended to be ineffective 6 and 12 months after treatmen.the difference was statistically significant (adjusted standardized residual >2). According to the total effective (cure+ markedly effective) and ineffective classification, the effective rate of the mixed group was significantly higher than that of the lauromacrogol group ( P<0.016 7). There was no significant difference for the effective rate between the mixed group and the ethanol group, and between the ethanol group and the lauromacrogol group ( P>0.0167). Conclusions:The retention of ethanol-lauromacrogol mixture in the capsule of sclerotic OEC, after pre-rinsing with anhydrous ethanol is helpful to improve the curative effect of OEC and give full play to the therapeutic effect of common sclerosing agents used in ultrasound intervention.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of a dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, saxagliptin, pro?moting the regeneration of islet beta cells in diabetic rats. Methods The male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups including control group (NC, n=10), diabetes group (DM, n=10) and diabetes treated with saxagliptin group (DM-S, n=10). DM-S group was treated with saxagliptin 1 mg/(kg·d) for twelve weeks. The pancreaticβcell function was analysed by hyperglycemic clamps. Immunohistochemistry with anti-PCNA was performed to observe the proliferation rate of pancreaticβcells. Immunofluorescence double staining with anti-insulin, anti-glucagon, anti-DPP-4 and anti-SDF-1 were performed to observe the expression of insulin, glucagon, DPP-4 and SDF-1 in pancreatic tissue. Western blot assay was performed to test the expression of Akt, p-Akt,β-catenin and free-β-catenin protein, and RT-PCR was performed to test the expressionlevels of c-myc and cyclinD1 mRNA in pancreatic tissue. Results Compared with NC group, there were significantly in?creased blood glucose, decreased islet function andβcell mass in DM group. Compared with DM rats, saxagliptin treatment significantly inhibited the expression of DPP-4, decreased the degradation of SDF-1, stimulated the proliferation ofβcells, and ultimately improved the islet function and histopathological changes of pancreas. Conclusion DPP-4 inhibitor saxa?gliptin can significantly improve islet function, which involved in the inhibition of the expression of DPP-4, the decreased degradation of SDF-1 and the stimulation of the proliferation ofβcells.

Objective To investigate the possible mechanisms of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ra) induced weight loss. Methods High fat diet induced obese c57BL/6 mice were divided into normal control group (N, n=8), high fat feeding group (HF, n=32) and GLP-1Ra group treated with GLP-1Ra (liraglutide 200μg/(kg·d) or 400μg/(kg·d) for 8 weeks). Changes of body weight, blood glucose and three acyl glycosides (TG) levels were observed in three groups. HE staining was used to observe the morphological changes. Immunofluorescence staining and real-time PCR were used to mea?sure the expression of UCP-1. Furthermore, the expression of PGC-1αin protein level was observed to explore the possible mechanism of GLP-1Ra induced browning in white fat (WAT). Results After 8-week liraglutide (Lira) administration, the body weights were significantly reduced in obese mice (P<0.05). The levels of blood glucose and TG were significantly high?er in HF group than those in N group, which reduced significantly in Lira (200μg·kg-1) and Lira (400μg·kg-1) administra?tion groups (P<0.05). HE staining showed adipocytes in perirenal and inguinal subcutaneous adipose tissue partly acquired brown-like morphological characteristics. The expression levels of UCP-1 protein and mRNA and PGC-1αprotein were ele?vated in adipse tissues, which increased more in Lira (400) than those in Lira (200, P<0.05). Conclusion GLP-1Ra can induce weight loss through white fat browning by activation of UCP-1.

Objective To evaluate the impact of vagal denervation (VD) that is derived from circumferential ablation of pulmonary vein ostium for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) on the therapeutic results. Methods A total of 50 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation were enrolled in this study. Circumferential ablation of pulmonary vein ostium was carried out in all the patients. The end point of ablation was pulmonary vein electricity isolation. The patients in whom VD occurred during the performance of ablation were regarded as VD- positive group (n = 19), and the remaining patients were used as VD- negative group (n = 31). The recurrence rate of AF six months after the treatment was recorded, and the results were compared between the two groups. Results The end point of ablation was successfully achieved in all the fifty cases. Six months after the ablation, the therapeutic effect of VD- positive group was significantly better than that of VD- negative group (84.21% vs 64.51%, P ≤ 0.05). Conclusion The vagal denervation effect that is derived from circumferential ablation of pulmonary vein ostium in treating AF can significantly increase the success rate of radiofrequency ablation for AF.
