Objective To summarize the clinical and pathological characteristics of primary gallbladder carcinoma, analyze factors such as surgical procedures, tumor stages that associated with prognosis, and standardize the diagnosis and treatment strategy for primary gallbladder carcinoma.Methods From January 1986 to October 2009, 197 patients of primary gallbladder carcinoma were treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH). A retrospective study was performed basing on clinical data of these patients, statistical analysis carried out using SPSS version 13.0, Kaplan-Meier estimate employed for the survival analysis and Log-rank test for the group comparisons. Results One hundred and ninety-seven patients were enrolled (73 male and 124 female) with the mean age of 64.4±1.1years. Abdominal pain (77.3%) , obstructive jaundice (33.6%) and fever (19.5%) were the main symptoms of primary gallbladder carcinoma, with accompanying cholecystolithiasis in 99 cases. B-mode ultrasonic examination and CT scan were important for preoperative diagnosis. Nevin stages and surgical modalities were independent prognosis factors. For stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients the survival terms were not different between those receiving radical cholecystectomy and simple cholecystectomy. However, for stage Ⅲ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ patients the survival terms were of statistically different between those in radical cholecystectomy group and simple cholecystectomy group. Conclusions For stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients, simple cholecystectomy is a good surgical procedure. For those at more advanced stages, radical cholecystectomy is the choice of therapy, while simple cholecystectomy also improves the prognosis compared with laparotomy only.

Objective To explore risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with gallstone disease. Methods The clinical data of 429 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients complicated with gallstone disease (case group) and 2145 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients without gallstone disease (control group) were collected from the Health Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2007 to May 2010. According to sure (SBP), diastolic blood pressnre (DBP), fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-CH), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-CH) and body mass index (BMI) were statistically analyzed by fourfold table chi-square test or conditional Logistic regression.Results Univariate analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the levels of SBP, FBG, TC, HDL-CH and BMI between the case group and the control group (x2 =20.323, 4.365, 4.028, 7.049, 7.319, P<0.05). Multivariate analysis confirmed that SBP, TC, HDL-CH and BMI were risk factors for gallstone disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (x2 = 18. 047, 6. 905, 12. 884, 7. 557, P < 0. 05). Conclusion Increased SBP, TC and BMI and decreased HDL-CH may be the risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with gallstone disease.

Objective To summarize the clinical and pathological characteristics of incidental gallbladder carcinoma,analyze the factors such as surgical procedures,tumor stages that associated with prognosis,and standardize the diagnosis and treatment strategy of incidental gallbladder carcinoma. Methods Between January 1991 and October 2009,27 incidental gallbladder carcinoma patients were treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH).A retrospective study was performed based on the clinical data of these patients to evaluate the methods of diagnosis,curative treatment and prognosis. Results Twenty-seven patients were collected (8 male and 19 female) with the mean age of (68.3 ± 1.9)years.Abdominal pain,obstructive jaundice and fever were the main symptoms of incidental gallbladder carcinoma.All the 27 cases underwent open cholecystectomy based on preoperative tentative diagnosis of benign disease,and carcinoma of gallbladder was confirmed by postoperative pathology.In this group(9 lowdifferentiation,9 moderate-differentiation,4 high-differentiation and 5-carcinogenesis from adenoma).Two cases were on the stage of Nevin Ⅰ,5 on Nevin Ⅱ,8 on Nevin Ⅲ,5 on Nevin Ⅳ and 7 on Nevin Ⅴ.The survival terms were of statistic significance between the radical cholecystectomy groups and simple cholecystectomy groups(x2 =4.450,P=0.035); The prognosis of patients on stages Ⅰ、Ⅱ are better than those who are on stages Ⅲ、Ⅳ、Ⅴ (x2 = 6.825,P = 0.014). Conclusion The clinical manifestations of incidental gallbladder carcinoma are diverse,which usually lead to misdiagnosis.Frozen section examination during operation is key to diagnose incidental gallbladder carcinoma.Surgical operation is the first choice of therapy,offering much better prognosis than those received simple cholecystectomy.

Objective To test the reliability and validity of ICF Core Sets for Chinese COPD patients.Methods Fifty-two COPD patients were measured with ICF Core Sets for COPD patients and SF-36. For reliability test, the internal consistency was analyzed and expressed by Cronbach α coefficients and split-half reliability. For va-lidity test, the content validity and criterion validity were analyzed and expressed with Spearman rank correlation coef-ficients. Results For body function, body structure and activity and participation, there were good internal consis-tency (Cronbach α coefficients 0. 698~0.957). For environmental factors Crnnbach α coefficient and split-half reli-ability did not exist. Most items of body function, activity and participation and body structure possessed good content validity. There was concurrent validity for ICF components of body function, body structure and activity and participa-tion with SF-36, FEV1/FVC, COPD grade and health self-assessment. The environmental factors demonstrated poor reliability and validity. Conclusion The ICF Core Sets for COPD patients showed good reliability and validity. It is a good comprehensive functional measurement scale for COPD patients, but it is necessary to test the generality of this result, and some items need to be adjusted.

Objective To investigate platelet-derived growth factor ( PDGF ) protection on blood flow and mitochondrial function of hemorrhagic shock rats. Methods Ninety-six SD rats were randomly divided into six groups including shock group, lactated ringer's solution (LR) resuscitation group,PDGF treatment groups(1,3. 5,7,15μg/kg). Laster-Doppler and oxygen concentration determination method were applied to observe the protective effect of PDGF treatment on animal survival,blood flow and mitochondrial function in liver and kidney. Re-sults As compared with LR resuscitation group,PDGF treatment increased animal survival rate and also improved blood fiow of liver and kindy,mitochondrial respiration control ration(RCR),of which the group with 3. 5μg/kg had the best result. Conclusion This finding sug-gests that PDGF may be a potential agent to treat acute critical such as hemorrhagic shock.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Qingfei-Jiedu decoction in the treatment of Acne. Methods A total of 93 female patients with acne were randomly divided into 3 groups according to random number table, 31 in each group. The observation group took the oral Qingfei-Jiedu decoction, and the Chinese medicine control group took the oral tanshinone capsule, and the western medicine control group took the oral acetic acid ring propyl alcohol progesterone. All 3 groups were treated for 4 weeks. The levels of serum dihydro (DHT), IL-6 and IL-8 were measured by ELISA. The changes of the lesions before and after treatment were observed and the adverse events were recorded during the treatment. The clinical effect was evaluated. Results After treatment, the serum DHT (56.94 ± 15.74 pg/ml vs. 74.48 ± 18.53 pg/ml, t=2.089), IL-6 (22.84 ± 11.77 pg/ml vs. 30.37 ± 14.50 pg/ml, t=2.135), IL-8 (22.64 ± 7.38 pg/ml vs. 29.54 ± 9.65 pg/ml, t=2.057) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the Chinese medicine control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the disappearance rate of skin lesions (65.4% ± 15.0% vs. 44.7% ± 12.9%, 42.7% ± 13.6%, F=6.862) and comprehensive syndrome effective rate (57.2% ± 12.6% vs. 46.3% ± 12.8%, 44.8% ± 11.7%, F=5.322) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the other two control groups (P<0.05). The observation group and the traditional Chinese medicine control group did not have adverse events, but the western medicine control group showed one case nausea. Conclusions The Qingfei-Jiedu decoction can reduce the level of serum DHT, IL-6 and IL-8 in female patients with acne vulgaris, and improve the skin lesion disappearance rates and comprehensive syndrome rates.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma,so as to provide theoretical base for the prevention of gallbladder carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 153 patients with gallbladder carcinoma (gallbladder carcinoma group) who were admitted to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2000 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 300 patients with cholecystolithiasis (cholecystolithiasis group) and 300 patients without gallbladder carcinoma or cholecystolithiasis (control group)were collected and matched at the ratio of 1∶2 to conduct the controlled study.Data were statistically analyzed by the Chi-square test and conditional Logistric regression.Results Univariate analysis showed significant difference in age,history of cholecystolithiasis,postmenopausal age,accumulated menstrual period,giving birth or not and number of birth between gallbladder carcinoma group and control group ( x2 =58.22,180.14,9.59,24.30,18.66,15.17,P <0.05).Age,history of cholecystolithiasis,accumulated menstrual period and number of birth were the independent risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma (x2 =55.76,180.95,24.30,8.54,P < 0.05).The risk of having gallbladder carcinoma in patients who had a history of cholecystolithiasis was 34 times higher than those who did not have the history of cholecystolithiasis (OR =34.22).Late postmenopausal age (51 -55 years old),longer accumulated menstrual period ( ≥30 years),and the number of birth ( 3 times) were associated with higher risk of gallbladder carcinoma (OR =3.96,9.68,3.51 ). Age,course of cholecystolithiasis and accumulated menstrual period and number of birth were the risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma when comparing patients who have history of cholecystolithiasis in the gallbladder carcinoma group with those in the cholecystolithiasis group (x2 =70.66,16.66,11.59,4.69,P < 0.05 ).Age,course of cholecystolithiasis and accumulated menstrual period were the independent risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma ( x2 =64.29,8.82,5.58,P < 0.05).The risk of gallbladder carcinoma increased as the increase of age and course of cholecystolithiasis. The accumulated menstrual period ≥ 30 years was also a risk factor of gallbladder carcinoma. Conclusions Age,history of cholecystolithiasis,course of cholecystolithiasis,accumulated menstrual period and number of birth may be the risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma.For patients with age above 60 years and course of cholecystolithiasis above 3 years,cholecystectomy should be conducted to reduce the incidence of gallbladder carcinoma,and great importance should be attached to female patients with indications mentioned above.
