Chronic constipation(CC)is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders. Treatment of CC includes drug and non-drug treatment. Biofeedback(BF)is a psychological behavior therapy and has become the first-line therapy of CC. However,the efficacy of BF reported varied substantially. This article reviewed the evaluation of efficacy of BF on CC.

BackgroundAdenoid cystic carcinoma is a malignant tumor originating from lacrimal gland epithelium with high recurrence rate and mortality because of its invasiveness. Although surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are used clinically,the curative effect is not enough satisfied. ObjectiveThis study was to provide an experimental basis for clinical application of 125 Ⅰ seeds interstitial brachytherapy. MethodsHuman ACC-2 cell links were transplanted subcutaneously in the back of 30 SPF BALB/C nude mice to establish the ACC model,and 25 of these mice with suitable sizes of tumor were selected and randomly divided into the G1 (0. 4 mCi 125 Ⅰ ), G2 (0. 6 mCi 125 Ⅰ ) ,G3(0. 8mCi 125 Ⅰ ) ,and G4( 1.0mCi 125 Ⅰ ) groups according to the different therapeutic radioactivity treatments,with 5 nude mice for each group,and a 125 Ⅰ seed without radioactivity was used in 5 mice as the control group. The dimensions of the tumors were measured at 2-day intervals and the inhibition rates of tumors were calculated. Nude mice were killed 14 days later by the broken neck method,and the amount of apoptosis and necrosis as well as the maximum effective radius of tumor to 125Ⅰseed were detected under the transmission electron microscope and routine pathological examination. ResultsFourteen day after operation, the dimension of tumors was (3713.19±243.23)mm3 in the G0 group;while in the G1 ,G2 ,G3 and G4 groups,the dimensions of tumors were (3113.35±316.54) mm3,(2635.85±261.21) mm3, (2538.37±312.16) mm3 and(1686.28±231.65) mm3,respectively, showing a significant decrease in comparison with the Go group( P＜0. 05 ). The tumor inhibitory rates in the G1 ,G2,G3 and G4 group were(20. 11±3.09)％, (36. 18±2.54)％ ,(40. 83±4. 17)％ ,and(66. 63±5.34)％ ,with an obvious elevation with the increase in the dose of 125 Ⅰ ( F=120. 240,P=0. 000). Correlative analysis showed that the intensity of radioactivity from 125Ⅰhad a positive correlation with tumor inhibitory rate (r =0. 653,P =0. 008 ). The maximum effective radius were ( 5.2 ±0.5 ) mm, ( 6.4 ±0. 7 ) mm, ( 7.4 ±0.4 ) mm, and ( 8.2 ±0. 5 ) mm in the G1 ,G2, G3 and G4 groups, with the considerable differences among them (F=29. 22, P=0. 000). Radioactivity of 125 Ⅰ exhibited positive correlation with the maximum effective radius ( r =0. 609, P =0. 004). Conclusions125 Ⅰseed implantation brachytherapy can inhibit the growth of the transplanted ACC in BALB/C nude mice by suppressing the proliferation of tumor cells. It is a safe ,feasible and effective method to treat adenoid cystic carcinoma.

Objective To observe the clinical effects and intubation condition of different doses of domestic cisatricurium(CA) in children. Methods Forty-five peadiatric patients aged 2 to 12 years old scheduled for selective surgery were randomized to three groups of 2 ED_(95) CA(0. 08 mg/kg), 3ED_(95) CA(0. 12 mg/kg) and 4ED_(95) CA(0. 16 mg/kg) (C_2, C_3, C_4 groups). Neuromuscular blockade was monitored with TOF-Guard. The conditions for trachea[intuDation were scored and the onset time, clinical duration, recovery index were recored. ResultsTracheal intubation was performed successfully in all patients. The conditions for tracheal intubation were scored greater 5 points in groups of C_3 and C_4 ,which was only 33. 3% of patients in group C_2. The onset time was shortened and the duration of action was prolonged as the dose of CA increased. But the recovery index of three groups were smilar. Conclusion An increase of CA dosage can shorten the onset time and prolong the duration of action and 3ED_(95) CA is suitable for tracheal intubation in children.

Abstract?AlM: To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal injection with Ranibizumab combined with sub-Tenon injection with Triamcinolone acetonide ( TA ) for macular edema ( ME) due to central retinal venous occlusions ( CRVO) .?METHODS:Forty-six patients (46 eyes) were diagnosed ischemic CRVO with significant macular edema by fundus fluorescence-angiography ( FFA ) and optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) . All the patients had panretinal photocoagulation ( PRP ) , a week after the four times therapies. Twenty-three patients ( 23 eyes ) in group A were randomly chosen to receive intravitreal injection with ranibizumab ( lVR ) , another 23 patients ( 23 eyes ) in group B to treat with both lVR and sub-Tenon injection with TA ( PSTT ) . There was no significant difference on macular edema and best corrected visual activity ( BCVA) between the two groups. The changes in BCVA and central macular thickness ( CMT) before and 1wk; 1, 3, 6mo after treatments were analyzed.?RESULTS: One week after the treatment: the BCVA increased while the CMT decreased compared with that of pretreatment in groups A and B (P<0. 05). BCVA and CMT changes between two groups were statistically significant differences (P<0. 05). One month and three months after the treatment:the BCVA increased while the CMT decreased compared with that of pretreatment in group A and B (P<0. 05), the difference was significant between two groups ( P< 0. 05 ). Six month after the treatment:the BCVA increased while the CMT decreased compared with that of pretreatment in groups A and B. Compare BCVA difference between the groups was statistically significant change (P<0. 05), CMT difference was not statistically significant (P>0. 05).?CONCLUSlON:Not only lVR can decrease ME caused by CRVO and increase the BCVA, but also lVR combined with PSTT can. But combined therapies can be more rapidly and have more positive effect on decreasing the ME and protecting the visual function.

Gastrointestinal tract contains the most complicated microbial ecosystem of the human body,and balance of microbial ecosystem has been proved to play an important role in human health.Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is closely related to the esophageal,gastric and intestinal microecology.It has been revealed that alterations in gut microbial ecosystem may induce mucosal inflammation,relax lower esophageal sphincter (LES),increase intragastric pressure and delay gastric emptying via various pathways and subsequently cause or exacerbate gastroesophageal reflux.In this article,the advances in study on gut microbial ecosystem and GERD were reviewed.

Gut microbiota is characteristically changed and participates in the pathogenesis and progression of a variety of diseases.Studies have shown that the ecological diversities of gut microbiota of constipated patients are disturbed, and some probiotics are effective for treatment of chronic constipation.This article reviewed the research progress on alterations of gut microbiota in chronic constipation, the mechanism of which affecting gastrointestinal motility, the interaction between microbiota and motility, and the efficacy of probiotics for clarifying the effect of gut microbiota on chronic constipation and guiding the clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To establish and optimize in vitro lipolysis model, and then to study griseofuvin(GRI) distribution during in vitro lipolysis of self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems(SNEDDSs). METHODS: The lipolysis rate and extent of triglyceride (TG)were two index for in vitro lipolysis model optimization. The partitioning of GRI into lipolysis phases (aqueous phase, pellet phase, lipid phase) was exploited to investigate the impact of structure and lipid loaded of TG on GRI distribution of SNEDDSs in vitro lipolysis. RESULTS: The optimal lipolysis model at the start of the experiment was as follows: 800 U · mL^-1 Pancreatin extract, 5/1.25 mmol · L^-1 NaTDC/PC micelle and 50 mmol · L^-1 Trizma maleate. The addition way of Ca²⁺ for medium chain triglyceride (MCT) and long chain triglyceride (LCT) were fixed addition 5 mmol · L^-1 and continuous addition 0.008 mmol · min^-1, respectively. With the same amount of TG in SNEDDSs, percent content of GRI in aqueous phase of LCT-SNEDDS was higher than MCT-SNEDDS. When TG loaded doubled, GRI in aqueous phase of LCT-SNEDDS significantly increased by 32.4%, and which of MCT-SNEDDS raised only 5.7%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The lipolysis rate and extent of TG were correlated with its structure and composition of TG and in vitro lipolysis model. Compared to GRI-SNEDDS without lipolysis, during in vitro lipolysis GRI had transferred to aqueous phase, pellet phase and lipid phase from which was only dispersed in emulsion droplet. And the distribution of GRI during in, vitro lipolysis depended on the composition and loading rate of TG in SNEDDS. These results may provide useful references to study the absorption mechanism of SNEDDS.
