Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, technical characters and benefits of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension(CPH). Methods:40 CPH patients, including 21 Child A class,26 Child B class and 3 Child C class were included. Data of the patients were collected and analyzed. Results: LC was successfully performed in 37 cases, and 3 patients were converted to open cholecystectomy (OC)for uncontrollled bleeding under laparoscopy and dense adhesion of Calot’s triangle. The convertion rate was 7.5%. The time of operation was (52.6? 15.2)min. The intraoperative blood loss was (75.5? 15.5)ml. The time to resume diet was (18.3?6.5)h. Seven postoperative complications occurred in 5 patients (13.2%). All patients discharged from hospital in (4.6?2.4) d after LC. Compared with LC in non cirrhotic patients, LC in patients with CPH has longer surgical time and hospital stay after operation, higher convertion rate and postoperative complication rate, more intraoperative blood loss. Conclusion: LC in patients with CPH has the advantages of minimal invasive surgery. It is feasible and relatively safe. But it has a higher convertion rate. Intraoperative blood loss is a prominent problem. The key step for a successful operation is to pay more attention to the perioperation managements and acquaint with the technical characters of this operation.

BACKGROUND: The different level of proteins regulating cell cycle and theircorrelation is the main criteria to differentiate the benign and malignant cellular proliferation.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression status of p21waf1 and p53 in lung cancer as well as proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)DESIGN:A case-control study.SETTING: Department of Respiratory Medicine, Renmin Hospital ,Wuhan UniversityPAITICIPANTS:This case-control study involved 135 patients who underwent lobectomy or fiberoptic bronchoscopy for primary lung cancer or benign chronic pulmonary diseases at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 1996 through May 1999. They were divided into two groups: lung cancer group (76 patients, including 56 men and 20 women,aged 18-74 years of age) and chronic pulmonary diseases group (59 cases,including 42 men and 17 women, aged 16-70 years of age).METHODS: Phosphate buffer solution replaced the first antibody as the negative control. Immunohistochemistry was performed using a modified streptavidin-biotinylated peroxidase technique according to the manufacturer's recommendations (Maxim Corporation). For p21waf1 staining, we used hydrated autoclaving as a pretreatment. Antigen retrieval was performed in a standard microwave unit for p53 staining. PCNA staining did not need The ratio of the positive cells indicated by yellowish brown nucleus due to staining was counted for 5 successive high-fold microscopic fields: when it was≥ 10%, it was taken as positive; when it was <10%, it was regarded as high-fold microscopic fields for the percentage of the positive cells indicated by yellowish brown nucleus due to staining in each field, and the average value of the five fields was taken as labeling index (LI) for proliferated nuclear antigens.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The expression leyels of p21waf1, p53and PCNA in lung cancer.cancer were 75% (57/76) and 47%(36/76) respectively. The labeling index of PCNA in lung cancer group was significantly higher than that of the chronic pulmonary diseases group (0.44±0.32 vs 0.09±0.14, respectively).significantly higher than that of small cell lung cancer (0.51 ±0.33 vs in lung cancer tissues. In chronic pulmonary diseases group, the expression of p21waf1 and p53 showed a close relationship with PCNA.CONCLUSION: It was found that p21waf1 and p53 were obviously upregulated in lung cancer and the degree of cellular proliferation in lung cancer was rather high. The capacity of DNA damage repair in squamous lung cancer may be stronger than that in small cell lung cancer.

BACKGROUND: Therapist-assisted treadmill training is good gait training, but it consumes great physical strength of therapists, and requires many persons. Clinical application was limited. Robot-assisted treadmill training has been paid great attention. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the role of robot in recovery of walking after spinal cord injury (SCI) and its influence on muscle activation patterns and kinematic patterns.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Although there is currently no evidence that robot-assisted gait training improves walking function more than other locomotor training strategies. Several advantages of robotic devices are obvious for applications targeting gait rehabilitation. Robotic devices are passive in nature and focus primarily on repeated movements of the limbs via fixed kinematic trajectories. These types of training abolish the cycle-to-cycle variation in the kinematics and the sensorimotor pathways. They also cannot sensitively monitor important characteristics of the training as therapists do. Therapists need to know the robot devices, understand how to change parameters to continuously challenge the subjects, and are able to assess when the workload is inappropriate for the subject's abilities so that they can maximize voluntary locomotor performance during assisted stepping to augment the recovery of functional walking.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to analyze the etiology and status of bone age of children with short stat-ure.MethodsAnthropological and physical examination data were retrospectively collected and studied in 2132 children with short stature in the department of endocrinology between 2009 and 2014. Growth hormone (GH) levels were determined by ar-ginine-clonidine test. Bone age was determined by CHN scoring.ResultsAmong the 2132 patients, 1333 were males and 799 were females. Mean age is 9.03 ± 3.04 years old, mean bone age is 6.81 ± 3.05 years. Of them, 324 cases (15.2%) were diagnosed complete GH deifciency, 780 cases (36.59%) were partial GH deifciency, 27cases (1.27%) were multiple pituitary hormone de-ifciency, 13 cases (1.64%) were hypothyroidism, 893 cases (41.89%) were idiopathic short stature, 19 cases (0.89%) were small for gestational age (SGA), 40 cases (1.88%) were chromosomal disorders, etc. Signiifcant difference in age and bone age was found using t test (P<0.05). Signiifcant differences in Δage were found between etiological categories using ANOVA (P=0.000). Δage was signiifcantly and negatively associated with peak GH using Pearson's correlation.ConclusionsGH deifciency is the most common cause of short stature. Bone age of children with short stature is commonly delayed. Δage was signiifcantly and negatively associated with peak GH. Multiple pituitary hormone deifciency has a signiifcant effect on bone age. The etiology of patients with short stature cannot be determined just by bone age.
