Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Wumei Wan (Fructus Mume Pills) for diabetic gastroparesis with the syndrome of cold-heat mixture. Methods Sixty-eight diabetic gastroparesis patients with the syndrome of cold-heat mixture were evenly randomized into treatment group and control group. On the basis of treatment for controlling the blood glucose level, the treatment group was given oral use of Wumei Wan and the control group was given oral use of Cisapride. After treatment for one month, the therapeutic effect of both groups was evaluated, and the changes of gastrointestinal symptoms, gastric emptying, 2-hour postprandial glucose(2hPG), glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c), and fasting plasma glucose(FPG) in both groups were also observed. Results (1)The total effective rate of the treatment group was 88.24%, and that of the control group was 67.65%, the difference being significant(P<0.05). (2 ) After treatment , the scores of gastrointestinal symptoms of nausea and vomiting, gastric fullness, anorexia, belching and acid regurgitation, abdominal and gastric pain, diarrhea, and constipation in the treatment group were markedly improved(P<0.05 or P<0 . 01 compared with those before treatment ). In the control group, symptom relief was shown in nausea and vomiting, anorexia, and diarrhea(P<0.05). The treatment group had better effect on relieving nausea and vomiting, abdominal and gastric pain, diarrhea, and constipation than the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01). (3)After treatment, 2hPG, FPG and HbA1c levels were obviously decreased in both groups(P<0.05 compared with those before treatment) , and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P<0.05). (4)After treatment, half gastric emptying time, full gastric emptying time, and the contraction of gastric antrum were improved in both groups(P<0.05), and the improvement of gastric emptying in the treatment group was superior to that in the cont rol group(P<0.05). Conclusion Wumei Wan has better effect for the treatment of diabetic gastroparesis than western medicine Cisapride.

Objective To investigate the genetype distribution of mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography(DHPLC).Methods A total of 300 cases nasopharyngeal aspirate were collected from our hospital.The MP genes of standard strains and clinical specimens isolates were amplified by PCR followed by DHPLC and genetype determination.Results A total of 110 cases were positive after 24 hours fermentation from 300 cases with pharyngeal swab.By the specific primers of MP-129,MP-FH standard strain and specimens,2 280 bp and 2 580 bp gene fragments were made out respectively.One hundred and ten strains of clinical isolates were detected by DHPLC.One hundred and seven strains of P1-Ⅰ were 1b subtype,3 were type P1-Ⅱ which were all 2a subtype.Conclusion The genetype of MP infection in children from our hospital is P1-Ⅰ,1b subtype by using DHPLC technology.

Objective To explore glycogen synthase kinase -3β( GSK-3β) activity and Toll-like receptor 4 ( TLR4 ) proteins expression of microglia were tested in vitro experiments, and the possible mechanism of postoperative cognitive dysfunction(POCD).Methods The cell morphology of primary culture microglia was observed by inverted microscope;microglia were identified by glial fibrillary acidic protein ( GFAP ) immunofluorescence;the best POCD modeling conditions of microglia injury induced by lipopolysaccharides( LPS) were screened ; microglia vigor was assayed by MTT ; the proteins expressions of GSK-3βand TLR4 of microglia were detected by Western blot.Results GFAP immunofluorescence showed a positive result that primary culture of rat microglia was successful;MTT result showed that the best PODC modeling conditions of microglia injury induced by LPS (100 ng/mL) was 7h; Western blot results showed that the preotein expressions of GSK-3βand TLR4 of microglial cells were up-regulated by LPS compared with the control group,and there were significantly differences (P<0.01).Conclusion PODC pathogenesis may be associated with LPS that could up-regulat the protein expression of GSK-3βand TLR4 in microglial cells.

We used the method of partial penectomy combined with penis lengthening to treat 2 cases of penile cancer. The penile lengths were lengthened by 3-4 cm. This method could retain the penis and sexual function to the maximum degree. And a few patients could avoid total penectomy and micturate on their feet. This operation is very simple and safe, with no complication.

Objective To assess the efficacy and side effects of intravesical instillation of BCG after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients.Methods The clinical data of patients treated with BCG 120 mg per course induced perfusion or more after TURBT from December 2013 to October 2016 in 18 hospitals of northeast China region,were analyzed retrospectively.The first part,data of 106 patients with moderate,high-risk NMIBC were collected.A total of 83 patients were male,while the other 23 patients were female.The average age was 66.7 years old.The clinical staging were T1 in 86(81.1%) cases,Ta in 20(18.9%) cases and carcinoma in situ in 6 (5.7%) patients.Intravesical instillation of BCG was executed after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor.The incidence rate of recurrence and progression during more than 6 months' follow-up time were observed.Multivariate analyses were done by using logistic analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression model with Kaplan-Meier method.The second part,treatment compliance of 276 patients with bladder cancer,including moderate/high-risk NMIBC in 263 cases,moderate/high-risk NMIBC followed with renal pelvis/ureteral carcinoma in 8 cases were and moderate/high-risk NMIBC with renal pelvis/ureteral carcinoma in 5 cases who treated with BCG after the surgeries,were observed.Patients consisted of 211 males and 65 females with average age of 68.3 years.Results With a median follow-up of 12 months,9 (8.5%) patients experienced tumor recurrence and 2 (1.9%) patients were found progression in the first part.The one-year cancer free recurrence rate of the patients was 91.5%.Statistically significant prognostic factors for recurrence identified by multivariable analyses were prior recurrence of the tumors (OR =3.214,95%CI0.804-12.845,P =0.099).In the second port,an incidence rate of adverse effects was 64.1% (177/276).The Ⅲ/Ⅳ degree complications were occurred in 11 patients and satisfactory outcomes achieved with active treatment.A total of 36 patients withdrawal with the major causes were recurrence and progression of bladder tumor in 12 cases (4.4 %),9 cases (3.3 %) with economic reasons and 11 cases (4.0%) with serious complications.Conclusions NMIBC patients treated with intravesical BCG therapy have approving cancer free recurrence rates and acceptable adverse effects.Prior recurrence may be prognostic factor of recurrence after intravesical BCG therapy.
