Objective To evaluate the incidence of asymptomatic carotid stenosis (ACS) in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) who was admitted for revascularization.Methods 229 PAOD patients were evaluated by carotid ultrasound preoperatively and divided into severe ACS group (ACS ≥ 70％) and non severe ACS group (ACS ＜ 70％).The clinical characteristics and associated risk factors of the two groups were analyzed.Results The incidence of severe ACS was 19.7％,age,blood pressure,total cholesterol and fibrinogen levels in severe ACS group were significantly higher than those in non-severe ACS group (P ＜ 0.05),the more severe the symptoms of PAOD are,the higher is the incidence of severe ACS.Age,hypertension and hypercholesterolemia were all predictors of severe ACS.Conclusions The severity of PAOD is positively correlated with the incidence of severe ACS.Age,hypertension and hypercholesterolemia are independent risk factors for severe ACS.

Objective To explore the clinical value of the duplex ultrasonography (duplex US) for evaluating the re-stenosis after peripheral arterial bypass grafting. Methods Eighty prosthetic grafts of sixty-three patients with femoral-pop-liteal arterial bypass grafting were follow-up regularly by duplex US. They were divided into non significant stenosis group (n=56), the significant stenosis group (n=15) and occlusion group (n=9) according to the tube diameter and arterial blood flow-ing parameters, which changed postoperatively. The diagnostic results were compared and analyzed between duplex US and digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The peak flow velocity of middle grafts (MG) to 40 cm/s was defined to evaluate risk of graft occlusion. Results The diagnostic coincidence rate of duplex US and DSA for grafts stenosis classification was 90%. The diagnostic sensitivity of duplex US to grafts stenosis was 91.7%, and the specificity was 92.9%. The positive pre-dictive value was 84.6%for grafts stenosis, and the negative predictive value was 96.3%, the false positive rate was 16.7%, and the false negative rate was 8.3%. The grafts occlusion rate was higher in MG<40 cm/s group than that of MG≥40 cm/s group. Conclusion There was a good consistency with Duplex US and DSA for the diagnosis of peripheral artery bypass graft restenosis. Duplex US showed characteristics of non-invasive, simple and easily accepted by patients.

Objective To verify the application of anterior segment perfusion culture and trabecular meshwork (TM) organ culture for glaucoma study. Methods TM tissue was cultured by perfused anterior segment and TM organ culture, light microscopy was used to observe the TM cells and intercellular spaces.Results IOP of the porcine anterior segments perfused under constant flow at 0.1 mL/h could bekept in normal range(10～12 mmHg). The IOP was elevated with the increasing of perfusion rate, while the morphology and structure of the tissue were well preserved. TM cultured by TM organ culture could also reserve the tissues well, but the intercelluar spaces collapsed. Conclusion Anterior segment perfusion model could be a short-term high-pressure model and may simulate the normal physical state. Adequate perfusion was necessary for normal TM.

The animals were allocated to two groups, and were administered chlorogenic acid or extract of S. lyratum Thunb. at a dose of 50.0 mg/kg orally. Blood samples were collected up to 8 h post-dosing. Plasma chlorogenic acid analyses were performed using an HPLC method with UV detector. The pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated using non-compartmental assessment. Significant differences existed in the two groups for AUC0-t, AUC0-∞ and CLz/F. The reliable HPLC method was successfully applied to the determination of chlorogenic acid in rat plasma at dosage of 50.0 mg/kg.

Objectives To compare total laparoscopic gastrectomy with intracorporeal hand-sewn Gl reconstruction and laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Methods Between July 2009 and July 2010, 21 patients of gastric cancer underwent total laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy with intracorporeal hand-sewn reconstruction and 28 did laparoscopy-assisted D2 radical gastrectomy in Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases. All patients were operated on by an experienced surgeon. Patient demographics, TNM stage, location of tumor, the intraoperative and postoperative details of the two groups were compared. Results In the 21 patients undergoing total laparoscopic gastrectomy, there were 15 of distal gastrectomy and 6 of total gastrectomy, compared with 21 and 7 in laparoscopy-assisted group. In total laparoscopic group, intracorporeal hand-sewn technique was used for gastro-jejunal and jejuno-jejunal (J-J)anastomosis, and 25 mm circular stapler was used for esophago-jejunal anastomosis. The operation time was significant longer in total laparoscopic group than in laparoscopy-assisted group of (279 ± 65 ) min vs.(232 ±40) min (P ＜ 0.05 ). No significant difference was observed between the two groups in proximal margin [(5.7 ± 1.5 )cm vs. (5.1 ± 1.4) cm, P ＞ 0.05] and distal margin [( 3.1 ± 0.9 )cm vs. ( 2.9 ±0.9) cm,P ＞0.05]. The iv narcotic use in laparoscopy-assisted group was 1.8 d but it was not used in total laparoscopic group. The first passing flatus was on day 3 in total laparoscopic group compared with 4.8 d in laparoscopy-assisted group. Both groups had 2 postoperative early complications, one intra-abdominal infection and one lung infection in total laparoscopic group compared with one wound infection and one lung infection in laparoscopy-assisted group. There was no anastomosis-related complications after 4 months of follow-up. Conclusions The operation time and postoperative early complication was acceptable for selected patients treated by total laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy with intracorporeal hand-sewn GI tract reconstruction in hands of experienced laparoscopic surgeon.

Objective To evaluate the surgical modalities and prognosis in elderly patients with gastric cancer.Methods Sixty three gastric cancer patients aged ≥≥ 75 years underwent radical surgery,with D0 + D1 resection in 32 cases and D2 resection in 31 cases,in Beijing Hospital from January 2005 to December 2009.Results More lymph nodes were dissected in D2 group than those in D0 + D1 group (27.42 ± 12.75 vs.14.59 ± 12.11,t =-4.095,P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in postoperative complication rate [25.81％ (8/31) vs.31.25％ (10/32),x2 =0.095,P ＞ 0.05] and perioperative death rate [3.23％ (1/31) vs.6.25％ (2/32),x2 =0.324,P ＞ 0.05] between two groups.The 5-year survival rate was higher in D2 group than that in D0 ± D1 group (47.3％ vs.21.4％,x2 =6.346,P ＜ 0.05).The 5-year survival rate was higher in POSSUM score (PS) ＜ 20 group than that in PS≥20 group (46.3％ vs.11.1％,x2 =5.492,P ＜0.05).In PS≥20 group,postoperative complication rate did not increase after D2 radical resection(1/8 vs.3/10,x2 =0.824,P ＞ 0.05).Univariate analysis showed that PS ＜ 20 was associated with the prognosis of patients (x2 =5.492,P ＜ 0.05).Cox proportional hazards model showed that lymph node metastasis (OR=4.103,95％ CI:1.790-9.405,P ＜ 0.05) and D2 radical gastrectomy(OR =0.313,95％ CI:0.158-0.620,P ＜ 0.05) were the independent factors associated with the prognosis of patients aged ≥ 75 years with gastric cancer (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Standardized D2 lymph node dissection is beneficial for gastric cancer patients aged ≥75 years.PS ＜ 20,lymph node metastasis and D2 radical gastrectomy are associated with the prognosis of patients.

BACKGROUND: Primary studies suggest that coronary artery stenosis is highly exactly shown by 16-slice spiral CT coronary artery imaging.OBJECTIVE: To compare the accuracy and limitation between coronary angiography and multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) coronary artery imaging to diagnose moderate and severe coronary artery stenosis. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Clinical diagnostic study based on gold standard, which was carried out in the Department of Cardiology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2005 to March 2006. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-eight patients with suspected coronary arteriosclerotic heart disease were examined by 64-slice spiral CT coronary artery imaging and coronary artery angiography during the 1-month hospitalization in the Department of Cardiology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2005 to March 2006. METHODS: 280 segments of 28 patients were quantitatively analyzed coronary artery stenosis by selective coronary artery angiography and multi-slice spiral CT imaging based on eye-measurement diameter method. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: True positive, true negative, false positive, false negative, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of coronary artery stenosis were measured by multi-slice spiral CT imaging.RESULTS: All 28 patients were included in the final analysis. Multi-slice spiral CT imaging showed that the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 46.5%, 97.6%, 86.8%, and 84.3%, respectively. If excluding the effect of 31 coronary segments with severe calcification, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 66.7%, 98.6%, 90.3% and 93.6%, respectively.CONCLUSION: Multi-slice spiral CT imaging is simple, reliable, noninvasive and safe; moreover, it has a good potential for diagnosing especially excluding coronary arteriosclerotic heart disease, but still some limits.
