Objective To analyze postoperative effect of a new rectopexy technique with Douglas pouch elevation for complete rectal prolapse (CRP) in adults.Methods From January 2010 to May 2011, 52 CRP cases were treated by rectopexy with Douglas pouch elevation.In terms of different surgical techniques, patients were divided into two groups : Group A (n =28) received laparoscopic rectopexy with Douglas pouch elevation;and Group B (n =24) received laparoscopic rectopexy with Douglas pouch elevation combined with procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH).Rectal prolapse, constipation, and fecal incontinence in the two groups were assessed respectively before surgery, and on the 6th, 12th, and 24th month after surgery, postoperative complications were evaluated with severe grading of surgical complications.Results Symptoms of rectal prolapse disappeared at half a year after surgery in all patients, and relapsed to different extent afterwards.However, two years after operation, the status of rectal prolapse in Group B tended to be stable.The trend of constipation after surgery was consistent with that of rectal prolapse.In addition, fecal continence improved gradually on half a year after surgery in the two groups and recovered to the optimal status in the first postoperative year.However, in the second year, the results of fecal incontinence reduced slightly in Groups A, and Group B became stable.Two years after surgery, four cases in Groups A relapsed while there was no recurrence in Group B.Difference of Grade I to Grade Ⅲ complications among the two groups was statistically insignificant (x2 =0.05, P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The clinical effect of laparoscopic rectopexy with Douglas pouch elevation associated with the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) is better than that without PPH for female and male CRP patients with severe symptoms.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effects and mechanisms of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase/ IMP cyclohydrolase(AICAR) supplement (AMPK activator) in different stages of neonatal rats sufferring from hypoxia-ischemia encephalopathy ( HIE). Methods Neonatal rat hypoxia-ischemia brain injury model was employed in this study. A total of 160 neonatal rats were distributed into five groups: sham, model control,AICAR30 min, AICAR24 h and AICAR72 h. The neuroprotective effects of AICAR supplement (30 min, 24 h, 72 h post operation) were compared by cresyl violet staining; Expressions of P-AMPK,AMPK in the brain tissue were measured by Western blotting.Foot-faults method was used to evaluate the long-term prognosis of the rats. Results Compared with the sham group, the survival of rats brain in model control group was significantly decreased [(100.0± 0.1)% and (45.3± 6.3)%, P< 0.05]. AICAR had neuroprotective effects when treated at 30 min and 24 h post operation,while the protective effects disappeared when treated later (72 h post operation) (P>0.05). Compared with the sham group, the expression of P-AMPK significantly increased about three times, while ATP level decreased close to the same. Conclusion Early AICAR treatment can protect hypoxia-ischemia brain injury by increasing AMPK-ATP level.

As a kind of commonly used traditional Chinese medicine, ginseng has a high reputation at home and abroad.

AIM: To compare the safety and efficacy of conjunctival autograft transplant ( CAT ) and limbal - conjunctival autograft transplant (LCAT) for primary pterygium.
METHODS: In this prospective, randomized and controlled clinical study, 120 patients ( 120 eyes ) diagnosed with primary pterygium were collected in NO. 474 Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 2014 to January 2015. The 120 patients enrolled in the study in turn, and divided into two group by the odd and even number. The odd number underwent CAT and the even number underwent LCAT.
RESULTS:One hundred and seven patients (107 eyes) completed the follow-up of 1a, including 54 patients (54 eyes) from the CAT group and 53 patients (53 eyes) from the LCAT group. Four patients (4 eyes, recurrence rate 7. 4%) in the CAT group and 2 patients ( 2 eyes, recurrence rate 3. 8%) in the LCAT group developed recurrence. However, there were no significant in recurrence rate between CAT group and LCAT group (P =0. 678).
CONCLUSION: CAT and LCAT might be both effective treatment for primary pterygium for reducing the recurrence rate of pterygium. However, LCAT is the optimal surgical method for primary pterygium.

Objective To provide reliable technical method by identifying referential anatomic landmarks for retroperitoneal laparoscopic renal surgery,with respect to the renal hilum and renal artery.Methods The regional anatomy of the posterior abdominal wall was studied in 35 cases of retroperitoneal laparoscopic renal surgery from January to August 2010.These included 27 cases of renal cancer,6 cases of renal pelvis cancer and 2 cases of renal tuberculosis.Distended the retroperitoneal space using balloon dilation along with sharp and dull dissection.We recorded the forms and positions of the posterior abdominal cavity's anatomical landmarks and evaluated the relationship between each anatomical landmark with respect to the renal hilum and renal artery.Results The perirenal fascia posterior layer and perinephric fat on the renal side were observed,and several anatomical landmarks gradually appeared on the posterior abdominal wall.The diaphragm extended across the upper retroperitoneal space near the superior pole of the kidney,and the psoas major and the quadratus lumborum muscles were located at the lower retroperitoneal space,near the inferior part of the kidney.The intersection of the upper diaphragm muscle with the lower psoas major and quadratus lumborum muscles were bordered by the lateral and medial arcuate ligaments.The lateral arcuate ligament arched across the upper part of quadratus lumborum,while the medial arcuate ligament arched across the upper part of psoas major.The medial arcuate ligament points extended towards the upper border of the renal hilum.These landmarks enable us to locate the position of the kidney,reach the renal hilum and identify the renal vessels in all 35 cases.Conclusions The relative position of the muscles and ligaments of the posterior abdominal wall are consistent and can be clearly seen under retroperitoneoscopy.Based on the position of the diaphragm and psoas major,the kidney can be located.In addition,based on the position of the medial arcuate ligament,the renal hilum and renal artery can be located.Assistance from these anatomical landmarks will simplify the retroperitoneal laparoscopic renal surgery.

Objective:To compare immune effects of hepatitis B-BCG combined vaccine and hepatitis B vaccine.Methods:The vaccines were administered to the guinea pig at 0, 1, 2 months. The tests were divided into three parts. The immune effects were compared in three kinds of the combined vaccine and hepatitis B vaccine(Part One), in three lots of the combined vaccine and hepatitis B vaccine(Part Two), in the group of combined vaccine and the group of hepatitis B vaccine and BCG(Part Three). After 1 month of each vaccine dose, serum specimens were measured for anti-HBs by ELISA.Results:The several studies have documented the serum anti-HBs concentritious in the group of combined vaccine in first dose were lower than those of the group of control, and the data showed no significantly difference. However, anti-HBs levels of the combined vaccine group in second vaccine dose and third vaccine dose were higher than those of the control group, and this difference was no longer statistically significant in group of combined vaccine and control, and among groups of combined vaccine.Conclusion:The immune efficacy of HBsAg in group of combined vaccine is similar to the group of hepatitis B vaccine in three doses immunization schedules.

According to the 2010 Chinese pharmacopeia, salt processed and charcoal processed Eucommiae Cortex were pre- pared. HPLC-DAD analysis of the content of the bark and leaf of Eucommiae Cortex showed that the bark of Eucommiae Cortex mainly contained lignans such as pinoresinol glucose and iridoid including genipin, geniposide, geniposidic acid, while the leaf of Eucommiae Cortex consisted of flavonoids such as quercetin and phenolic compound such as chlorogenic acid. The content of pinoresinol diglucoside in the bark of Eucommiae Cortex was about 18 times more than that in the leaf of Eucommiae Cortex. The content of pinoresinol diglucoside in salted and charcoal processed Eucommiae Cortex decreased approximately by 30% and 85%, respectively. The content of genipin, geniposide and geniposidic acid in the bark of Eucommiae Cortex was about 3 times, 23 times, 28 times more than that in the leaf of Eucommiae Cortex. The content of genipin, geniposide and geniposidic acid in salted Eucommiae Cortex were reduced by 25%, 40% and 40%, respectively. The content of genipin, geniposide and geniposidic acid in charcoal processed Eucommiae Cortex were reduced by 98%, 70%, 70%, respectively. The content of caffeic acid in bark of Eucommiae Cortex was about 3 times more than that in the leaf of Eucommiae Cortex. The content of caffeic acid was decreased by about 50% in the salted Eucommiae Cortex. While the content of caffeic acid in charcoal processed Eucommiae Cortex was decreased approximately 75%; the content of chlorogenic acid in bark of Eucommiae Cortex was about 1/6 of that in the leaf of Eucommiae Cortex. The content of chlorogenic acid in salted and charcoal processed Eucommiae Cortex decreased by 40% and 75%, respectively; the content of quercetin in bark of Eucommiae Cortex was only 1/40 of that in the leaf of Eucommiae Cortex.
