Objective To evaluate the charateristics of biliary stricture after orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) by ultrasound. Methods Diametes,thickness,characteristic echo of bile were observed by ultrasound in 41 patients with biliary stricture after OLT,and the results were compared with those of 46 patients without biliary complication after OLT.Results The diameter of intrahepatic bile,thickness of bile,incidence of intrahepatic bile dilation or hyperechogenicity in biliary stricture patiens were higher than those in patients without biliary complication,there were significant differences between two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusions The series of ultrasonographic character such as bile dilation,thickeness or hyperechogenicity of biliary wall,thin of bile duct are available to diagnose biliary stricture.

A new phenethanol, (2'R)-4-(2', 3'-dihydroxy-3'-methyl-butanoxy)-phenethanol (1), along with other eleven known benzene derivatives (2-12) were isolated from the roots, stems and leaves of Clausena excavata (Rutaceae). Compounds 3 and 4 are new natural products, and compounds 5-8, 10-12 were isolated from C. excavata for the first time. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses including HSQC, COSY and HMBC experiments. 1 was tested for its cytotoxicities against A549, HeLa and BGC-823 cancer cell lines, and antimicrobial activities against Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that 1 did not exhibit cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities.

Objective To investigate the effect of rehabilitation training on the sensory dysfunction after stroke.Methods Fifty three stroke patients with sensory dysfunction were randomly divided into 2 groups:a con- trol group and a treatment group.The control group composed of 25 patients was intervened with conventional treat- ment,while the treatment group composed of 28 patients with sensory training in addition to the conventional treat- ment.The effect of rehabilitation training of the two groups was evaluated by Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and afer treatment.Results The FMA scores of patients of both groups increased significantly after 2 months of treatment (P

Objective To study the role of ligustrazine injection on collagen-Ⅲ(Col-Ⅲ) and laminin(LN) in pulmonary fibrosis rats induced by bleomycin A5.Methods Seventy Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups at random:normal group,model group,large-dose group,middle-dose group,little-dose group.The other groups were injected bleomycin A5 in intratrache except for normal group.From the second day,large-dose group,middle-dose group,little-dose group were given ligustrazine injection by intraperitoneal injection to 28th day,the dose was dividedly:250,150,40 mg/(kg?d).Col-Ⅲ and LN in serum were detected in 14th,28th days and the content of them in lung tissue homogenate in 28th day were also detected.HE staining was detected on lung tissue.Results The contents of Col-Ⅲ and LN of lung tissue and serum in pulmonary fibrosis rats were significantly upgraded compared with that of normal group(P

To investigate monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes of the stems and leaves of Clausena excavata, an AcOEt fraction of the methanol extract was subjected on column chromatographies including silica gel and RP-18, as well as preparative HPLC. The structures of compounds isolated were identified on the basis of spectroscopic data as excamonoterpene (1), (6R, 9S)-9, 10-dihydroxy-4-megastigmen-3-one (2), (3R, 6R, 7E) -3-hydroxy-4, 7-megastigmadien-9-one (3), (3S) -3-hydroxy-7, 8-dihydro-beta-ionone (4), (3S, 5R, 6S) -3-hydroxy-5,6-epoxy-beta-ionone (5), (6R, 9R) -9-hydroxy-4-megastigmen-3-one (6), (3S, SR) -dihydroxy-6, 7-megstigmadien-9-one(7), (-)-loliolide(8), caryolane-1, 9alpha-diol(9) and 2, 6-dihydroxyhumula-3 (12), 7 (13), 9(E)-triene (10), were isolated from the stems and leaves of C. excavata. Compound 1 is a new monoterpene, named as excamonoterpene. Compounds 2-10 were isolated from this plant for the first time.

Objective To summarize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver. Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical manifestations,imagings, laboratory tests, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of 18 consecutive cases finally established as NRH during the past 26 years. Results 15 of the 18 cases showed portal hypertension, 4 cases showed mono or multiple occupations of the liver, 8 cases suffered from concurrent autoimmune diseases, 3 cases were suspected of blood diseases. Preoperatively, 13 cases were diagnosed as cirrhosis, 2 cases were diagnosed as liver cancer or focal nodular hyperplasia ( FNH). All cases were diagnosed by operative wedging biopsy. 3 cases received splenectomy, 4 cases received disconnection /Phemister surgery, 3 cases received liver occupation/liver lobe resection, 1 case received partial small bowel resection, and 1 case received spleen artery restrictive surgery. Postoperatively, symptoms of portal hypertension relieved obviously. Follow-up study showed most of the patients were stable and prognosis of the NRH was good.Conclusions NRH may relate to the disturbance of liver blood supply, and most common clinical manifestation is portal hypertension, and can combine with immune diseases, hematopathy also can present single or multiple liver occupations. Differential diagnoses include liver cirrhosis, FNH, idiopathic portal hypertension. Diagnosis of NRH relies on liver wedging biopsy. Surgery can relive concurrent portal hypertension.
