Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of reoperation of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration in the management of choledocholithiasis in patients with biliary surgical history. Methods Thirty-one patients with choledocholithiasis and biliary surgical history were performed by reoperation of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration between January 2012 and January 2014 in our hospital.The adhesion was disconnected under the laparoscopy, and then the common bile duct was opened to introduce an endoscope for stone removal.A T-tube was placed for drainage. Results The operations were successfully completed in all the 31 cases, without conversion to open surgery.The vital signs of those patients were smooth during the operation.The operation time was 65-125 min, with a mean of (118 ±21) min.The volume of blood loss was 10-75 ml during operations, with a mean of (39 ±19) ml.The patients could take food normally 24-48 h after operation, with a mean of (27 ±13) h.The drainage tubes were pulled out 48 -72 hours after operation.No severe complications, such as residual stones, bleeding, gastrointestinal leakage, or pancreatitis happened during hospitalization, except for 1 case of biliary leakage and 1 case of incision infection.The patients stayed in hospital for 6-9 days after operation, with a mean of (7.0 ±1.5) days.No biliary stricture or recurrence was found during a 3-24 months of follow-up (mean, 15.6 months) in 31 cases. Conclusion Reoperation of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration by experienced laparoscopic specialists for choledocholithiasis in patients with biliary surgical history is relatively safe and effective.

Objective:To study the effects of poly-DL-lactic acid(PDLLA) biomembrane in the repair of cleft hard palate. Methods:Thirty-two cleft palate patients, age 2.67 to 12.83 years old, were treated. The traditional surgical method was used to close the cleft soft palate, and the PDLLA biomembrane was implanted into the surgical gap between the periosteum and bone at the hard palate and fixed with suture to close the cleft hard palate. Clinical follow-up was conducted for 6 months.Results:Operations on all 32 patients were completed successfully.The average surgical time was not prolonged, and post-operative complication was not increased. Wound healing of soft palate, uvula and hard palate was uneventful with no incidence of fistula or dehiscence. Conclusion: PDLLA absorbable biomembrane can be used to repair cleft hard palate.

Objective To investigate the intra-splenic blood cell count of posthepatitic cirrhotic portal hypertension,and compare it with patients' peripheral blood cell count to explore the role the spleen plays in peripheral cytopenia often seen in posthepatitic cirrhotic portal hypertension.Methods A prospective study was made on 15 cases with post hepatitis B cirrhotic portal hypertension undergoing splenectomy.Intrasplenic blood was sampled from upper pole,hilus (central pole),and lower pole of the spleen respectively for blood cell count.Results were compared with that of preoperative peripheral blood.Results There were significant statistical differences in the WBC count between splenic blood and peripheral blood,(11.20 ± 4.73) × 109/L vs.(4.06 ± 1.75) × 109/L,t =5.05,P ＜ 0.05),and in PLT count,(182.45±66.57) × 109/L vs.(63.54 ±28.40) × 109/L,t =7.285,P ＜0.05.There was no differences in the RBC count,(3.55 ± 0.94) × 1012/L vs.(3.01 ± 0.62) × 1012/L,t =1.874,P ＞ 0.05.Positive correlations were found between splenic PLT count and peripheral PLT count (r =0.610,P ＜0.05).Conclusions In posthepatitic B cirrhotic portal hypertension patients the intra-megalosplenic PLT and WBC count are significantly higher than that in peripheral blood.Megalosplenic PLT count correlates positively with peripheral PLT count.

Utilizing transesophageal or transthoracic echocardiography, the occluder was released using a monotube unit. Results All patients were occluded successfully. No patient required open surgery utilizing extracorporeal circulation. There were no major complications and no evidence of residual atrial shunt. Conclusion ASD occlusion via a minimal surgical incision is safe, less invasive, and has excellent outcomes.

BACKGROUND:To dynamicaly monitor the varying levels of inflammatory factors in the gingival crevicular fluid is helpful to assess the early effect of orthodontic tooth movement. Myeloperoxidase, soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1, pentraxin 3 are proven to be closely related to inflammation, but it is unclear about the levels of these three kinds of inflammatory factors as wel as association of these three kinds of inflammatory factors with orthodontic tooth. OBJECTIVE:To detect the expression levels of myeloperoxidase, soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1 and pentraxin-3 in the gingival crevicular fluid during maxilary canine distal movement and to assess their correlation with periodontal disease, canine movement distance and orthodontic force. METHODS:Twenty-one orthodontic patients were enroled and assigned into 150 g (n=12) or 100 g (n=9) groups according to orthodontic force. The gingival crevicular fluid samples of orthodontic patients were colected before and at 4, 12, 24 hours, 7, 14 days after maxilary canine distal movement. Levels of myeloperoxidase, soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1 and pentraxin-3 in the gingival crevicular fluid were measured and analyzed using ELISA assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: During the distal movement of maxilary canine, under orthodontic force, the level of myeloperoxidase was peaked at 4 hours and then decreased, while the expression level of soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1 was peaked at 12 hours, and then decreased. Both myeloperoxidase and soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1 levels returned to normal at 7 days under orthodontic force. The expression level of pentraxin-3 was increased significantly under orthodontic force, peaked at 24 hours, and then decreased gradualy to the normal level at 7 days. In addition, the expression levels of myeloperoxidase, soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1 and pentraxin-3 in the gingival crevicular fluid were significantly higher under 150 g force than under 100 g force. These findings indicate that detecting varying levels of myeloperoxidase, soluble intercelular adhesion molecule-1 and pentraxin-3 in the gingival crevicular fluid is useful to assess the efficiency of orthodontic treatment and prevent adverse reactions.

Objective To discuss the feasibility of preoperative diet by measuring gastric emptying time of carbohydrate and protein nutrient solutions in healthy volunteers.Methods A total of 20 healthy volunteers were collected from August 2013 to May 2014.On the morning of the trial,baseline gastric residual volume of each volunteer was measured with magnetic resonance imaging at 8 a.m.,then each of the 20 healthy volunteers took 12.5％ carbohydrate solution 400 ml (containing 40 g of maltodextrin and 10 g of sucrose) or 12.5％ whey protein solution (containing 50 g whey protein) in 5 minutes.Magnetic resonance imaging was conducted to measure the gastric residual volume every 25 minutes.The volunteers were shifted to the other nutrient solution after a 1-week interval.The gastric emptying time of both nutrient solutions was calculated to generate the curves illustrating the process of gastric emptying.Results The baseline gastric residual volume of the volunteers was (14.90 ± 9.39) ml.The total gastric emptying time of carbohydrate solution was (104.90 ± 27.98) min (95 ％ CI 98.64-111.16 min),while that of whey protein solution was (199.6 ± 34.17) min (95％ CI 184.47-214.73 min).There was a significant difference between these two types of nutrient solution in terms of gastric emptying time (P ＜ 0.000 1).Conclusions The induction of anesthesia could be performed 2 hours after carbohydrate administration,and at least 4 hours after whey protein administration.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of preprocedural cystatin C level for contrast-in-duced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) and poor long-term outcome after cardiac catheterization. Methods One thou-sand one hundred and fifty-four patients underwent cardiac catheterization were enrolled in Guangdong general hos-pital. The level of serum cystatin C was determined at 24 hours pre-operation. A 2-year follow up was performed for each patient. Preprocedural cystatin C level was compared between patients with or without CI-AKI. The cystatin C quartiles were compared between patients with incidence of CI-AKI and patients with adverse in-hospital outcomes. Analyses of the receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were performed to evaluate the predictive value and cutoff level of cystatin C level for CI-AKI. The log-rank test and Cox regression analyses were also performed to in-vestigate the correlation between cystatin C level and poor long-term outcomes. Results CI-AKI occurred in 42 patients (3.6%). The cystatin C level was significantly higher in the CI-AKI group than that in the non-CI-AKI gu-oup (1.76 ± 1.05 vs 1.20 ± 0.50 mg/L, P=0.001). Patients with higher cystatin C level also had higher risk of CI-AKI and adverse in-hospital outcomes. ROC and Youden index showed that 1.3 mg/L cystatin C of was a fair dis-criminator for CI-AKI, but not significantly different from the Mehran CI-AKI score (AUC, 0.75 vs 0.76, P =0.874). After adjusting for other known CI-AKI risk factors, cystatin C level over 1.3 mg/L remained significantly associated with CI-AKI. During the long-term follow-up , the patients with cystatin C level over 1.3 mg/L were at a higher risk of all-cause mortality and MACEs (P < 0.001). Concusions A preprocedural cystatin C level over 1.3 mg/L was a good predictor of CI-AKI and poor long-term outcomes after cardiac catheterization.
