Ojective The improve laparoscopic treatment of inguinal hernia in children. Methods 40 children aged from 2 to 14 years were treated by single port laparoscopic surgery for inguinal hernia between January 1999 and December 2000. Twenty four children manifested a right inguinal hernia, 12 a left hernia, and four cases a bilateral hernia. All the patients were treated by purse-string suture around the internal ring under laparoscopy. Results The duration of operation were from 10 to 30 minutes. There was no intra-or postsurgical complication. Conclusions The single port laparoscopic surgery is a simple, conveninet, quick and safe and minimal invasive procedure for the treatment of inguinal hernia in children.

Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy in diagnosing precancerous lesions of breast cancer.Methods Totally 605 cases were enrolled.Ultrasound characteristics were recorded.The pathological diagnosis on ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy was compared with the findings of the excisional biopsy and follow-up results.Results In all of the 605 cases,3 cases were failed on ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy because of less biopsied tissue.The accuracy of ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy was 97.84％ (589/602),the Kappa value was 0.96 (P=0.01).In biopsy,42 cases were precancerous lesions of breast cancer,and divided into according group (n=32) and upgrading group (n=10) according to surgical pathology or follow-up results.The rate of underestimation was 23.81 ％ (10/ 42).Compared to according group,microcalcification,acoustic attenuation,rich vascular and suspicious axillary lymph nodes had statistical difference in upgrading group (all P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy is ac curate in the diagnosis of breast neoplasm,however,ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy diagnosis of precancerous lesions are partly underestimated.To some degree,ultrasound characteristics of precancerous lesions of breast cancer could predict the underestimation.

Objective: To observe the effect of carboxyl-amino-polysaccharide on the gastric ulcer. Methods: Various rat models of gastric ulcer were established respectively by ethanol, aspirin, hydrochloric acid, acetic acid and bound stress in water bath. Results: Inhibitory rates of carboxyl polysaccharide in the dose of 0.5, 0.33, 0.17g/kg were 42.09%, 35.55%and 33.53%for the ethanol-induced model; 53.65%, 49.48%, and 49.76%for the aspirin-induced model; 51.48%, 44.09%, and 33.64%for the hydrochloric-acid-induced model, 49.44%, 46.23%, and 45.10%for the acetic-acid-induced model and 50.12%, 44.63%and 41.92%for the bound-stress-induced model respectively. Conclusion: Carboxyl-amino-polysaccharide can prevent and treat gastric ulcer. Its effect is similar to that of denol, famotidine and cimetidine.

Objective To explore the causing factors of radiocontrast-induced nephropathy (RCIN) after coronary angiography and the rule of hydratation.Methods 279 cases of coronary angiography were retrospectively analyzed,and the clinical features,basic renal function and volume of intra-venous fluid received on operation day between the patients with and without RCIN were compared.Results The total mortality rates of radiocontrast-induced nephropathy were 6.81%(19/279);in patients with hypertension,the RCIN rates were 8.65%(16/185);in patients with diabetic,the RCIN rates were 12.1%(12/99);in patients with preexisting renal dysfunction,the RCIN rate was 0%(0/16);the multifactor Logistic analysis showed that the factors causing RCIN were age,diabetic,the volume of intra-venous fluid,however,the factors such as gender,smoking,hypertension,coronary heart disease,chronic renal failure were irrelative with RCIN.Conclusion The incidence of RCIN in people over 60 years old is much higher.Such condition may be partly cansed by the decreasing renal reserve capacity.Sufficient hydration is an effective way to decrease RCIN.

Objective To study the advantages and summerize the practice of laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) for elderly patients. Methods Forty one elderly patients with appendicitis aged from 60 to 76 were treated with LA. The operative procedure, surgical indications, recovery, postoperative pain, and complications, as well as the period and the cost for hospitalizing were studied. Results All 41 patients were comfirmed appendicitis through LA. Thirty nine patients undergone LA were operated smoothly. Only two patients were cured with exploratory laparotomy. The preoperative diagnosis was confirmed in 6 patients and the complication of other diseases were found in 5 cases by LA. Two cases were operated by abdominal incision during LA. Postoperative complications, such as infection of the incision and pain were less occurred. The concurred diseases with appendicitis need simple treating. The hospitalizing period was 4 days on the average and the cost was 20%～30% higher than other procedures. Conclusions Most of elderly patients can be early diagnosed and timely treated by LA. LA could be a more popular choice for the elderly patients with appendicitis since its advantages of safe and minimal invasion. It has been an outstandihg method in treating appendicitis compared to other traditional methods.

Objective To avoid the adverse reactions resulted from scalp scar, alopecia, operation trauma and the length of recovery and other syndromes in the traditional frontotemporal-face lifting. Methods The small incision to dissect the tissue at the frontoparietal and temporal part was used. And the muscle that caused the wrinkle was cut before lifting the dissected tissue and skin while smoothing the wrinkles on the face. Results Of 68 cases in the clinic, 11 cases were with temporal lifting by embedding suturing; 25 with temporal lifting with mini incision by embedding suturing; 32 with frontotemporal lifting with mini incision by embedding suturing. The follow up showed that the result of such operation method was satisfactory. No scalp scar, alopecia and other syndromes occurred. Conclusions This method of frontotemporal lifting with mini incision by embedding suturing has such advantages as: operating process is simple and can be done in the operating room of the Out patient Department, the trauma is not so serious that it takes little time to recover, the cut is so small that the scar is invisible, frontotemporal face lifting is very positive and satisfactory.

Objective To study the results of an improved method of laparoscopic treatment of inguinal hernia in children. Methods Between January 1999and October 2003,94 inguinal hernias in 86 children between 2～14 years of age were treated by laparoscopic surgery using a single trocar hole. 54 children showed a right inguinal hernia, 32 a left hernia,and 8 cases presented bilateral hernias. Of the unitaleral hernias, 10 were occult hernias. All the patients were treated by purse-string suture around the internal ring under direct vision with laparoscopy. Results Operative time was from 10-30(average 16) minutes. There were no intra-or post-operative complications. All were followed up for 4-60 months, with no recurrences . Conclusions This method of laparoscopic hernia repair is less traumatic, postoperative recovery is fast and stitch removal is not necessary. It can also be used for the treatment of occult and bilateral inguinal hernias.

Objective To investigate the effect of early limb movement on the motor function and the activities of daily life of stroke patients. Methods Eighty two stroke patients were divided into the control group(n=40)and intervention group(n=42). The former received conventional nursing care and the latter the intervention of early limb movement and routine nursing.The two groups were compared in terms of Fugl-Meyer movement function and Barthel index. Results After 12 weeks,the scores by Fugl-Meyer motor function and by Barthel index were significantly higher than those in the control group(all P<0.01).Conclusion The intervention by early limb movement is effective for promoting the recovery of limb motor function of stroke patients as well as their ability of daily life.

Objective To study the relationship of free fatty acids and oxLDL-C with diabetic retinopathy(DR).Methods The 108 type 2 diabetes cases with(n=68)and without(n=40)DR were enrolled,and compared with 42 health control.FFA was determined by copper chromogenic method.oxLDL-C was determined by ELISA with kits provided.The correlation of risk factors with retinopathy was analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Results FFA and ox LDL-C levels were higher in DR group than in groups of DM and control.Logistic regression analysis showed that as the independent risk factors for DR pathogenesis,LDL-C,FFA,oxLDL-C and course of disease entered into regression equation.Conclusions FFA and oxLDL-C are the important risk factors for DR.
