BACKGROUND: Since the diagnostic unit is established in "mental disorder due to Qigong", it has been lack of comparative analysis of experimental observation on whether Qigong exercise affects physiological state in central nerve system, on what the difference are between Qigong and hypnotic induction in the effects on central system.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes in brain evoked potentials in "normal state", "Qigong meditation" and "hypnosis" so as to analyze the difference between Qigong release and hypnotic induction in cerebral physiological effects in normal adults.DESIGN: Brain evoked potential experiment was designed, in which, normal adults were employed.SETTING: Shanghai Mental Health Center.PARTICIPANTS: They were staffs, interns and volunteers in Shanghai Mental Health Center, of either gender, at any age and with any educational background, totally 52 people.METHODS:① American Nicolet Spirit evoked brain electrophysiological meter was used. The electrodes were attached according to 10/20 system on Cz, C3, C4, Pz and Fz of scalp. Verbal or fixation inductive hypnosis was applied. Hypnosis lasted 20 to 30 minutes, in which, the induction lasted 10to 15 minutes. The experimental observation were performed when the receptors were determined to be in hypnosis.② The Qigong meditation was co-performed by the Qigong masters from Shanghai Qigong Institute or Qigong folk masters. They released "external qi" to the receptors. The degree of "Qigong meditction" was based on folk standards. The observation was carried on when the receptors were identified to be in theQigong state.The entire process lasted 20 to 30 minutes.③ To observe successively the latency and amplitude of the event related potentials [contingent negative variation (CNV), P300 ] and sensory evoked potentials [visual evoked potentials (VEP), auditory evoked potentials (AEP), auditory brainstem reaction (ABR)] of receptors in "normal state", "Qigong meditation" and "hypnotic state". The observed values were performed multiple analysis of variance of single-factor quantitative linear model in 2 × 2 factorial design.MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES:① Observation of event related potentials. ② Observation of sensory evoked potentials RESULTS: Due to limited result of hypnotic induction and incomplete record of brain-evoked potentials, 3 cases were lost. Terminally, 49 cases entered statistical analysis. ①Observation of event related potentials: under hypnotic state, the amplitude of P300 (target stimuli-P3) was decreased compared with normal state [(4.18±2.23), (6.07±3.23) μV, P ＜ 0.01]. The amplitude of AEP (P2) in hypnotic state and normal state was decreased compared with Qigong meditation [(2.01±1.28), (2.71±1.83), (2.73±1.34)μV, P＜0.05].The amplitude of CNV(M2) was decreased comparedwith normal state and Qigong meditation[(5.93±3.36),(7.83±4.59),(7.76±4.42) μ,V,P ＜ 0.05].②Observation of sensory evoked potentials: The amplitude of VEP (P2, P3) in hypnotic state was reduced compared with normal state and Qigong meditation [(3.47±2.69), (4.76±2.78), (4.30±2.64) μV; (1.18 ±1.08), (1.68±0.95),(2.01±1.48) μV, P ＜ 0.05].CONCLUSION: In hypnotic state, sensory evoked potentials presented low amplitude and such alternation did not appeared in Qigong meditation and normal state. It is explained that there are differences between hypnotic induction and Qigong release in the influence on cerebral physiological process. The extensively recognized hypothesis in Qigong field that "Qigong state" is "hypnosis" cannot be verified by above-mentioned experiment.

Objective To explore the difference between laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair (TAPP) and open preperitoneal hernia repair for the treatment of inguinal hernia under local anesthesia.Methods A total of 64 cases with inguinal hernia underwent hernia repair in Beijing Daxing District Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2014 to January 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Thirty-four cases in test group were applied with TAPP and used D(9 * 13) mesh to repair for inguinal hernia,and 30 cases in traditional group with open preperitoneal hernia repair which used D10 mesh to repair for inguinal hernia.Results All operations were successfully completed.There was statistically significant difference in operation time(P =0.000),postoperative activity time(P =0.000),postoperative hospitalization time (P =0.003) and pass flatus time (P =0.000) between these two groups.There was no statistically significant difference in wound seroma(P =0.216),hematoma (P =1.000),analgesics (P =0.090) and recurrence rate of the first year (P =1.000).Conclusions Both TAPP and tension free repair of inguinal hernia under regional anesthesia are safe and effective methods for the treatment of inguinal hernia,which has its advantages.Surgeon should choose the suitable procedure according to patient's condition reasonably.

Objective To study the feasibility of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in low pneumoperitoneum pres sure and the effct of low pressure pneumoperitoneum on liver enzymes.Methods A total of 128 cases of laparoscopic gallbladder resection for gallbladder stones or chronic acalculous cholecystitis patients came from outpatient of Department of Two General Surgery of Daxing Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from Jan.2010 to Apr.2015.Patients with odd hospital numbers were divided into the conventional pressure group (group A:12-14 mmHg,n =64).Patients with even numbers were divided into the low pressure group (group B:8-10 mmHg,n =64).The venous blood was respectively collected at the first day and second day preoperatively to determine and compare the contents of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) in two groups.The mean and standard deviation of the above indexes and operation time of two group patients are compared.Results All patients were successfully completed surgery.The average operation time of group A was (65 ± 6.5) minutes,and group B was (61 ± 8.2) minutes,and there was no significant difference between the two groups (t =2.212,P =0.976).Compared with the A group,the B group had less effect on the aminotransferase,the data of the two groups were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic gallbladder resection underwent the low pneumoperitoneal pressure (8-10 mmHg) is safe and feasible,doesnt extend the operation time,and helps to reduce the effect of pneumoperitoneum pressure on transaminase,which is much important for patients with abnormal aminotransferase preoperative.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of laparoscopic and open umbilical hernia repair for adult umbilicalhernia.Methods Eighty-threepatients with adult umbilical hernia admitted to People's Hospital of Beijing Daxing District from Feb.2008 to Jan.2017 were randomly divided into laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group (n =38) and open umbilical hernia repair group (n =45).Patients in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group accepted laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair with intraperitoneal onlay mesh (n =38),while patients in open umbilical hernia repair group accepted traditional umbilical hernia repairtreatment.Operation time,hospital stay,blood loss,seroma/hematoma formation,wound infection,incomplete bowel obstruction and recurrence were compared between the two groups with the software of SPSS 22.0.The outpatient consultation was performed at 2 weeks,1 month,3 months,and 6 months after operation.The follow-up contents were wound condition,pain,and whether there were any masses in the umbilicus.After every 3 months of telephone follow-up or outpatient review,whether there were any masses in the umbilicus,the average follow-up time was 14 months.Results All operations were successfully completed.The operation time of laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group was shorter than open umbilical hernia repair group [(31 ± 8) min vs (48 ± 10) min,P ＜ 0.01],and hospital stay were significantly shortened in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group (P ＜ 0.05).The amount of bleeding of the laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group decreased significantly than open umbilical hernia repair group [(40 ± 18) ml vs (62 ± 25) ml,P ＜ 0.01].The postoperative painof the laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group was mild than open umbilical hernia repair group (P ＜ 0.05).The postoperative complications include seroma,wound infection and incomplete bowel obstruction.There were no significant differences between the two groups of seroma,incision infection and recurrence (P ＞ 0.05).The difference of the incidence of incomplete bowel obstruction between the two groups was statistically significant (P =0.019) . The total postoperative complication rate was significantly lower in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair group than in open umbilical hernia repair group(x2 =5.328,P =0.021).Conclusions Laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair has short operation time,less bleeding,and satisfactory postoperative pain.It is worthy of advocacy for umbilical hernia patients who can tolerate general anesthesia.

Objective To compara the postoperative pain and foreign body sensation in patients with inguinal hernia treated by laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and open transinguinal preperitoneal (TIPP).Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical data of 180 patients with inguinal hernia admitted to the Daxing District People's Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2016 to January 2018,male 158 cases,female 22 cases,average age 56 years old,age range 23-80 years old.Including 110 patients in the TAPP group and 70 patients in the TIPP group,patients in the TAPP group were treated with laparoscopic TAPP,and patients in the TIPP group were treated with open TIPP.Pain degree was assessed with pain visual analogue scale (VAS) postoperatively at 3 weeks,3 months and 6 months.The incidence of chronic pain was measured at 3 weeks,3 months,and 6 months after surgery,and the incidence of foreign body sensation at 3 months was recorded.Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (Mean ± SD),t test was used for comparison between groups;Chi-square test was used for compare the count data between groups.Results At 3 weeks,3 months,and 6 months after surgery,the mean value of pain VAS in the TAPP group was lowerthan in the TIPP group [(0.07 ± 0.40) scores vs (0.37 ± 0.94) scores,(0.03 ± 0.16) scores vs (0.24 ± 0.69) scores,(0.01 ± 0.10) scores vs (0.14 ± 046) scores],and the difference was statistically significant (P =0.004,0.002,0.004).The incidence of pain in the TAPP group was 3.6％,2.7％,and 0.9％ at 3 weeks,3 months,and 6 months after surgery,respectively.The incidence of pain in the TIPP group was 14.3％,11.4％,and 10.0％,respectively.The difference was statistically significant (P =0.021,0.040,0.012).At 3 months postoperatively,there were 2 cases (1.8％) in the TAPP group and 12 cases (17.1％) in the TIPP group with the foreign body sensation.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (x2 =14.006,P =0.000).Conclusion Compared with the open TIPP,the laparoscopic TAPP is used to repair the inguinal hemia,The postoperative pain is milder,and the incidence of chronic pain and foreign body sensation was lower.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the clinicopathological characteristics and the factors affecting the prognosis of intrahepatic biliary cystadenocarcinoma (IBC).

METHODSForty-six patients with histologically confirmed IBC from January, 2000 to April, 2014 were included. The clinical characteristics of the patients with IBC were compared with those of 58 patients with intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma (IBCA). Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to identify the factors affecting the prognosis of IBC.

RESULTSThe 46 patients with IBC included 15 men and 31 women with a mean age of 57.0 ± 10.5 years. Compared with the patients with IBCA, IBC patients had an older mean age (57.0 ± 10.7 vs 44.3 ± 15.3 years, P=0.03) and a greater proportion of male patients (15/46 vs 8/58, P=0.02). The differential diagnosis between IBC and IBCA was difficult on the basis of preoperative laboratory and imaging findings. The median overall survival of IBC patients was 56 months with 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates of 85.9%, 65.2%, and 47.7%, respectively. Gender, surgical approach, tumor growth pattern and distant metastasis were all significant prognostic factors for the overall survival of the patients.

CONCLUSIONIBC is a rare cystic lesion occurring primarily in middle-aged men. Complete resection is recommended for curative treatment and close follow-up is essential especially for male patients and patients with tumors exhibiting an invasive growth.

Objective To prospectively study the changes of venous blood before and after travel by high speed train.Method From December 2013 to August 2015,following the appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria,50 volunteers and 20 high speed rail crew member were recruited.Blood samples were collected,and lower extremity venous ultrasound was performed in general information,and recorded activities (including walking distance,number of steps,etc.) and drinking water volume,before and after travel.Results After 5 hours in the train,in all the participants venous blood coagulation indicators were on the rise.Doppler ultrasound examination showed:the lower extremity venous diameter increased,the venous return slowed down,the leg circumference diameter increased (all P ＜ 0.05).High speed rail crew had increased leg circumference (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion 5 hours high-speed train travelling increases the likelihood of economy class syndrome.High speed rail crew working 10 hrs are with increased circumference of the lower extremity veins.

OBJECTIVETo describe the treatment and prognosis of solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPN) with metastases or recurrence.

METHODSThe clinical date of 24 patients with histological confirmed SPN with metastases or recurrence from January 2000 to April 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 22 females and 2 males, with mean age of (36 ± 16) years. Fourteen patients had local recurrence or metastasis after surgery, with a mean time of recurrence (44 ± 29) months. Ten patients were defined SPN with distant metastasis at first admission. Nineteen patients underwent surgical resection, among them, 11 patients received complete resection. Nine cases underwent chemotherapy. Kaplan-Meier method was used to identify prognostic factors.

RESULTSTwenty-four patients were followed-up, 9 patients died. Median survival time was 47 months, and 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival was 91.7%, 65.1%, 49.6%, respectively. Age (χ(2) = 6.858, P = 0.009), primary tumor diameter (χ(2) = 4.322, P = 0.038), extrahepatic metastasis (χ(2) = 5.279, P = 0.022) and complete resection of metastases and recurrence (χ(2) = 4.666, P = 0.031) were important prognostic factors for survival (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSFor SPN with metastases or recurrence, good prognosis can also obtain after complete resection. Age, primary tumor diameter, extrahepatic metastasis and complete resection of metastases and recurrence are influence factors on prognosis of patients.

Objective: To understand the genotype distribution and molecular epidemiological characteristics of the group A rotavirus (RVA) in domestic sewage, and further explore the importance of environmental surveillance in investigating RVA regional circulation. Methods: Sewage samples were collected monthly in the city of Yantai from January 2014 to December 2016. After concentration, total RNA was extracted, and RVA VP7 and VP4 coding regions were amplified via RT-PCR. PCR products were purified, cloned and Sanger sequenced. Genotyping and phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on the sequences. Results: Thirty-six sewage samples were collected and 86.1% was positive with VP7 and VP4 sequences. A total of 205 VP7 and 239 VP4 nucleotide sequences were obtained, belonging to 4 G genotypes and 6 P genotypes. Among these, G9 (95.6%, 196/205), P[8] (58.6%, 140/239) and P[4] (28.0%, 67/239) were the most common genotypes. Phylogenetic analysis for G9, P[8] and P[4] sequences revealed co-circulation of multiple transmission chains in local population. Conclusions This study describes the genotype distribution and sequence characteristics of local RVA in Shandong province, and the result demonstrate that surveillance on environmental sewage is an effective way in investigating RVA molecular epidemiology.
