Objective To observe the biochemical indicators and lifestyles of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD),and analyse the risk factors of induced NAFLD.Methods A total of 258 in-and out-patients of NAFLD were included in the present study,the control group consisted of 213 examinationers with nonfatty liver disease.All samples were being blood biochemical indicator detection and lifestyle survey.Results Some blood biochemical index of NAFLD patients such as TC(5.48 ± 1.10) mmol/L,TG(2.31 ± 1.25) mmol/L,ALT (51.35 ± 26.18) U/L,AST (42.37 ± 28.32) U/L,FPG (5.62 ± 3.24) mmol/L,GGT (58.47 ± 43.25) U/L and UA (398.51 ± 96.85) μmol/L were higher than those of the control group (t =3.423,5.250,7.402,4.348,3.326,6.683,3.891,all P ＜ 0.01) ; and the incidence of hyperlipidemia,hypertension (21.71％),diabetes (22.09％),BMI(26.85 ± 3.45) or metabolic syndrome (44.57％) etc.Those indexes in NAFLD patients were significantly higher than those in the control group (x2 =8.14,10.55,58.48,t =10.73,all P ＜ 0.01).By multivariable Logistic regression analysis,TG,WI,BMI,HOMA-IR,lack of exercise,high-fat diet were independent risk factors for NAFLD (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Patients with NAFLD is closely correlated to metabolic abnormalities,reasonable diet and a healthy lifestyle is an effective way of prevention and treatment of this disease.

Objective To evaluate the prophylactic effect of pancreatic duct stent (PPDS),NonSteroid Anti-Inflammtory Drugs (NSAIDs),and joint PPDS and NSAIDs on post endoscopic rectrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) Pancreatitis(PEP) in choledocholithiasis patients.Methods A total of 200 choledocholithiasis patients were randomly divided into 4 groups,prophylactic pancreatic duct stent(PPDS) group (A),NSAIDs group (B),joint PPDS-NSAIDs group (C) and routine ERCP without prevention for PEP(group D).VAS score,levels of amylase in serum and CRP were measured before and 4 h,24 h,48 h after ERCP.Incidences of hyperamylasemia and PEP were observed.Results (1) Incidences of hyperamylasemia 48 h after ERCP were 6％ (3/50),6％ (3/50) and 4％ (2/50) in group A,group B and group C respectively,which were significantly lower than that of group D (11/55) (P ＜ 0.05).(2) Incidences of PEP 48 h after ERCP were both 2％ (1/50) in group A and group C,which were lower than that in group D (10％,5/50,P ＜ 0.05).Group B (4％,2/50) was lower than that of group D but there was no statistical significance(P ＞0.05).(3) VAS scores of all groups at 4 h,24 h and 48 h after the operation were significantly higher than before (P ＜ 0.05).Group B score was significantly lower than that of group D (P ＜ 0.05).Scores of group A and C at 4 h were lower than those of group D (P ＜ 0.05),and those at 24 h and 48 h were also lower but with no statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05).(4) Serum CRP levels at 4 h,24 h and 48 h were significantly higher than those before in each group.Serum CRP levels of group B and C were significantly lower than that of group D at 4 h,24 h and 48 h.Serum CRP level of group A was significantly lower than group D at 4 h,24 h.CRP level at 48 h of group A was lower than that of group D,but there was no statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Both prophylactic pancreatic duct stent and NSAIDs (Parecoxib Sodium) can reduce incidence of hyperamylasemia after ERCP common bile duct lithotomy.Single or joint use of prophylactic pancreatic duct stent can prevent PEP.Furthermore,prophylactic pancreatic duct stent and NSAIDs (Parecoxib Sodium) can reduce pain and inflammation after ERCP common bile duct lithotomy.NSAIDs only (Parecoxib Sodium) is more effective than prophylactic pancreatic duct stent only and joint use of both.

[Objective]The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of severe aortic valve incompetence on the pharmacodynamics of cisatracurium.[Methods]Thirty patients were enrolled in this study:15 patients with severe aortic valve incompetence scheduled for aortic valve replacement were included in the study group(AI-group)and 15 patients without heart disease undergoing general surgical operations were allocated into the control group(C-group).Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 5 μg/kg.propofol 1.5～2 mg/kg and cisatracurium 0.1 mg/kg and maintained by total intravenous anesthesia with propofol-remifentanil infusion.Degree of neuromuscular block was measured by train-of-four ratio using TOF-WATCH acceleragraph monitor.Onset time(from administration of cisatracurium to T1=0),total twitch suppression time,the time for spontaneous recovery of T1 to 25%and 75%.and the recovery index were recorded respectively.[Results]The onset time of cisatracurium was significantly longer in the AI group compared to the control group(5.6±0.8 min vs 3.4 ±0.4 min.P＜0.001.However.there was no difference in the recovery time between the two groups.[Conclusion]We demonstrated that the onset of cisatracurium was delayed in the patients with severe aortic regurgitation in comparison to those without heart disease.

Objective To study the method of combined laparoscopy and endoscopy ( duodenosco-py and choledochoscopy) in the treatment of Csendes's II, III Mirizzi Syndrome. Methods Twenty one patients with Mirizzi Syndrome were admitted for the procedures. These patients received endoscopic nasobiliary drainage first, followed by laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy plus common bile duct(CBD) exploration. Results Satisfactory out come was realized except conversion to open surgery occurred in 2 for failure in repairing due to the extensive adhesions of Calot's triangle and anatomical abnormalities of cystic duct. In the course of operation ,removal of incarcerated stones in neck of gallbladder was performed in 14 cases, extraction of CBD stones by intraoperative choledochoscopy in 5 cases, and all cases received primary suture on the defect of CBD. There was neither residual stones left nor serious after - effect including biliary fistula and he-mobilia. Mean postoperative stay was 9.4 days. Follow - up observations on 19 patients did not show recurrence of stones, nor bile duct stricture during 18-41 months. Conclusion The combined procedures is feasible and safe alternative but can be technically demanding. This management is able to substitute some conventional procedure of T - tube insertion, however, primary suture on the defect bile duct is especially difficult.

Objective To study on the method of applying laparoseopy for the treatment of choledo cholithiasis after biliary tract operation, and to evaluate its therapeutic efficacy. Methods Thirty-seven cases of common bile duct stones after operation from October 1999 to December 2003, received laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) were retrospectively analyzed. Results Satisfactory results were accepted in 35 cases and the rest two cases converted to laparotomy. Thirty cases had got primary healing by the help of employing endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) , 7 cases received T-tube drainage. There was neither residual stones left nor serious after-effect including biliary fistula and hemobilia happened. Mean operative time was ( 168 ?30. 2) min. Mean postoperative stay in hospital was (11.5?1.3) d. Recurrences of calculi and bile duct stricture never happened within 6-48 m follow-up study. Conclusion The laparoscopic procedure is technically feasible and safe alternative, however, the technique in lyses of adhesions, dissection and suture of choledochus are quite difficult, therefore it is recommended to be performed in experienced hands expected to minimize the occurrence of complications, and firmly mastered the indications of conversion to laparotomy as far as possible.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic and open operation combined with endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD) in the management of choledocholith. Methods 44 cases treated by laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) and 34 ones by open common bile duct exploration(OCBDE) combined with ENBD and primary suture of common bile duct were retrospectively analyzed from January 1997 to July 2001. Results All cases were operated on successfully. The clearance rate of stones was 100%(78/78). No postoperative complications such as bile leakage, hemobilia, cholangitis, etc occurred. Postoperative hospital stay was (6 2?1 3)days in group LCBDE and (7 4?2 1)days in group OCBDE. 57 cases had been followed up for (1～4 5)years with an average of 2 6 years, and ultrasoundgraphy showed no bile duct stricture and recurrent stones. Conclusions LCBDE or OCBDE combined with ENBD and primary suture of common bile duct is safe and reliable.

Objective:Screening out NPC from susceptable crowd by serological test for EB virus.Methods:Checking antibody of EB virus by ELISA. At first, EBNA1 IgA was detected for susceptable crowd as a primary screening index, secondary , EBNA1 IgG and Zta IgG were detected in the EBNA1 IgA positive group.Results:The sensitivity and specificity of EBNA1 IgA were 91.8% and 91.4%, both were higher than those of EBNA1 IgG and Zta IgG; the sencondary detection of EBNA1 IgG and Zta IgG raised the specificity of NPC screening to 96.5% and also helped to divide the crowd into 3 groups as high, median, and low risk. And the high risk group accounted for 0.39%.Conclusion:Two-stage screening of NPC raise the sensitivity and specificity of NPC detection. It also helps to divide the crowd into 3 groups of risk.

BACKGROUND:As the pharmacological effect of eugenol constantly being discovered, its application in medical and food industry becomes wider. However, its toxicity studies have not established a complete database, especialy in the improvement of safety assessment of developmental toxicity and teratogenicity. OBJECTIVE:To establish a model of embryonic stem cel test to evaluate the embryotoxicity of eugenol. METHODS:Mouse fibroblasts (3T3) and mouse embryonic stem cels (E14TG2a) were culturedin vitro, and MTT test was performed to detect the cytotoxicity of 3T3 cels and E14TG2a cels with positive control 5-fluorouracil, negative control penicilin G and tested compound eugenol. The concentration of the tested compounds that inhibiting 50% viability of embryonic stem cels (IC50 E14TG2a) and 3T3 fibroblasts (IC50 3T3) was calculated. The hanging-suspension-adherent culture systems were used to induce embryonic stem cels into cardiomyocytes, and the concentration of tested compounds that caused 50% inhibition of differentiation of E14TG2a cels into cardiomyocytes (ID50 E14TG2a) was calculated. The embryotoxic potential of eugenol was classified by prediction model of the embryonic stem cel test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The proliferations of E14TG2a and 3T3 cels were inhibited by eugenol, of which the IC50 3T3 and IC50 E14TG2a values were (3.613±0.192) and (1.799±0.131) mg/L. The differentiation of E14TG2a was also inhibited by eugenol, of which the ID50 E14TG2a was (3.501±0.158) mg/L. Eugenol was evaluated as a chemical compound with strong embryotoxicity by the model of embryonic stem cel test.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of endogenous hydrogen sulfide, a novel and important gas-eous transmitter generated in mammalian tissues mainly by cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) or cystathionineγ-lyase (CSE) on the apoptosis of the rat hepatic BRL cell line in physiological condition. Methods BRL cells were cultured, and divid-ed randomly into several groups in different phases of the experiment, including negative-siRNA (control) group, CBS siRNA (CBS 1~3) group and CSE siRNA (CSE 1~3) group, which were used to select the most efficient sequences of siRNAs at 48 or 24-hour transfection. Solution group and (CBS+CSE) siRNA group were added to detect the variation of apoptosis. The BRL cell line was observed and evaluated at 0, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hrs after siRNA transfection. When the mechanisms of the apoptosis were detected, CBS/CSE siRNAs were transfected individually or jointly into BRL cells, and compared with nega-tive-siRNA group to examine the variation. The genic and protein expression of CBS/CSE were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot assay. After transfection of CBS/CSE siRNA, the apoptosis of BRL cells was detected by Hoechst stain and flow cytometry (FCM). The mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) changes were observed by fluorescent staining. Western blot assay was used to examine the protein expression of intracytoplasm cytochrome C (Cyt C) and cleaved-caspase 3. Re-sults CBS and CSE were observed in BRL cells. After transfection of CBS/CSE siRNA, endogenous H2S generation de-creased and the apoptosis of BRL cells increased. Accordingly, the expression of intracytoplasm-Cyt C and cleaved-caspase 3 increased. Conclusion The inhibition of endogenous H2S synthesis induced the apoptosis of BRL cells under physiologi-cal condition, which may be involved in mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis.
