Objective To study the effect and mechanism of Xinkai Kujiang method(TCM treatment with the pungent and bitter herbs to regulate the gastrofunctions)on the functional dyspepsia(FD)rats.Methods Twenty-four rats were randomized into control group,model group,and Weikangning(herbal medicine for dyspepsia)group,with 8 in each.After a 7-day adaptive feed,the FD models were made with the clipping tail stimulation.Seven days after modeling,the Weikangning group was given Weikangning Capsule 0.625g/kg by gavage,twice a day,and the other two groups were given normal saline in the same dosage.The medication was appliey in succession for 12 days,and on the thirteenth day,the serum and gastric tissues were collected for detecting the lab indications:plasma motilin(MTL),plasma nitric oxide(NO),gastric tissue MTL,nitric oxide synthase(NOS),and the expression of Cajal interstitial cells(ICC)and gastrointesinal smooth muscle cells(SMC).Results Compared with the control group,the level of plasma MTL in the model group was significantly decreased,the level of NO significantly increased,and the expression of MTL,ICC and SMC positive neurons in the stomach myenteric nerve plexus was significantly weakened,but the expression of NOS positive neurons was significantly strengthened(P

Objective To investigate the therapeutic outcome and its influencing factors after laparoscopic conservative surgery in treatment of tubal pregnancy. Methods From January 2003 to December 2008, 226 cases with tubal pregnancy were treated by laparoscopic conservative surgery. The tubal pateacy was evaluated in 152 cases given by hysterosalpingography (HSG) and 6 cases given by second laparoscopic exploration at 3-6 months after surgery. In their first laparoscopic surgeries, 209 got successful treatment and 19 underwent fail treatment. At 3-6 months after surgery, 89 cases with tubal patency among 207 cases with successful treatment were enrolled in group A. Nineteen cases who were failed in their first laparoscopic conservative surgery and treated by salpingectomy and 63 cases with tubal obstruction were enrolled in group B. The rate of tubal patency was calculated on patients with characteristics of gestational sac less or more than 5 era, the level serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) less than 2000 IU/L,2000 IU/L to 5000 IU/L, and more than 5000 IU/L Results There was no significant difference in age,parity, amenorrhea, location of tubal pregnancy, rupture, pelvic adhesion between group A and group B.Two hundred and seven cases (91.6%, 207/226) were successfully treated at initial laparescopy. One hundred and fifty-two cases got follow up and 55 cases lost follow up at 3 to 6 months after surgery. There was statistical difference in preoperative hCG value which median were 980 (55-12 000) IU/L in group A,3150 (570-40 000) IU/L in group B(P<0.01); the diameter of tubal gestational sac were (3.4±1.3)cm in group A and (5.0±1.7) cm in group B(P<0.01); respectively, the volume of peritoneal bleeding were 200 (0-1500) ml and 300 (0-1600) ml, the rate of live tubal embryo was 2% (2/89) in group A and 11% (9/82) in group B, which all reached statistical difference (P<0. 05). Among 171 cases in both group A and 8, the rate of tubal patency were 65% (67/103) in 103 cases with maximal diameter of tubal gestational sac less than 5 cm and 32% (22/68) in 68 cases with maximal diameter of tubal gestational sac more than 5 cm, which reached statistical difference (P < 0.01). The rate were 72% (73/102) in patients with serum level of hCG less than 2000 IU/L, 29% (12/42)in patients with 2000 IU/L to 5000 IU/L and 15% (4/27)in patients with more than 5000 IU/L, which also showed statistical difference (P <0.05). It was observed that preoperative serum hCG level (OR=0.277, P<0.01), the maximal diameter of gestational sac (OR=0.577, P<0.01) and the volume of peritoneal bleeding (OR=0.999, P < 0.05) were significant factors influencing successful laparoscopy treatment by logistical regression analysis.Conclusion In order to preserve fertility, laparoscopic conservative surgery was a safe and feasible approach in treatment of tubal pregnancy. Preoperative serum hCG levels, size of tube gestational sac were significant factors influencing successful laparoscopic surgery.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the present situation of the nosocomial infection in our hospital in order to decrease the infection rate. METHODS A total of 40 554 patients were inspected from Oct 2004 to Sept 2005.There were 626 patients with nosocomial infection. RESULTS The nosocomial infection was 1.54%.Old patients were the main components.The longer they were in hosptial,the more risk of infection they had.Elder monitoring department and hematological department were the most common infected units.Respiratory tract was the most common infected site of the body.The entity of disease for the most infection was malignant tumor.Invasive treatment was one of the causes for the infection. CONCLUSIONS The infection rate of our hospital was relatively low.We should establish the system to control the infection.Use the advanced statistical software well be to aid the control and discover the anti-infection deficiency from the statistical view-point.

OBJECTIVE To summarize the infection cases and the factors causing site infection after operations,and investigate the measures to prevent and reduce exogenous incision infection.METHODS Discharged patients from Jan 1st,2003 to May 31st,2006 in our hospital were investigated for retrospective analysis on incision infection cases.RESULTS Totally 111 incision infection cases were reported from 54 286 cases.The nosocomial infection rate in this cohort was 0.21%(111/54 286),which was 33.44% of total surgical incision infection cases.CONCLUSIONS Incision infection is one of the most commonly encountered concomitant symptoms,it is as well the bottleneck for our hospital to reduce average stay length of surgical patients and patients′ hospitalization expenses,and to speed up turnover of beds.Incision infection rate is also an important criterion to evaluate the management quality and medical technology quality within and among hospitals.Effective measures should be taken to decrease incision infection rate and to resolve the problem that is difficult to hospitalize and expensive to treat.

Objective To investigate the relationship between aggrecan and YKL-40 in knee articular cartilage of Sprague-Daw-lay(SD) rats with osteoarthritis (OA) .Methods Fifty-six healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 7 groups ,8 cases per group . The one side of knee joint was randomly selected for performing the anterior cruciate ligment transection (ACLT) and establishing the OA model .The rats in one group were randomly killed on the day of operation and at postoperative 0 ,2 ,4 ,8 ,12 ,16 ,20 weeks . The femoral condyle cartilage samples at different time periods in the operated side were collected for conducting safranin O /fast green staining and HE staining .Meanwhile ,the OA pathological grade was made out according to the modified Mankin scale .The expression of aggrecan and YKL-40 in the cartilage with different stages of OA were analyzed by the immunohistochemistry meth-od ,and the status of expression were measured by average optical density (AOD) .The correlation between aggrecan and YKL-40 was analyzed .Results With the aggravation of OA ,the expression of aggrecan was gradually reduced and the expression of YKL-40 was gradually increased .The differences during the early ,middle and late phases of OA had statistical significance (P<0 .05) . The expression of aggrecan was negatively correlated with the expression of YKL-40(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The level of aggrecan is gradually reduced with the aggravation of OA .Aggrecan is negatively correlated with the YKL-40 level ,which may reflect the dedifferentiation degree of joint chondrocyte to some extent .

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect of Chinese medical (CM) syndrome differentiation based Chinese herbs and recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor II-antibody fusion protein (etanercept) for treating ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients.

METHODSTotally 35 AS patients were treated with syndrome differentiation based Chinese herbs and etanercept. Reinforcing Shen and strengthening Du channel, activating meridians to stop pain was principle used in syndrome differentiation based treatment. Etanercept was subcutaneously injected, 25 mg each time; twice per week for the first three months and once a week for the latter three months. The clinical efficacy was evaluated after 3 and 6 months of treatment. Meanwhile, ASAS20 and ASAS50 standards arriving rates were also observed. Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), visual analog score (VAS) for spine pain, VAS for night pain, patient global assessment (PGA), VAS for physician global assessment, CM syndrome score, finger-ground distance, thoracic activity, tragus-wall distance, lumbar scoliosis, cervical rotation, Schober improved test, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) were observed before treatment, 3 and 6 months after treatment.

RESULTSCompared with before treatment, BASDAI, BASFI, VAS for spine pain, night pain, physician global assessment, PGA, CM syndrome score, finger-ground distance, thoracic activity, tragus-wall distance, lumbar scoliosis, Schober improved test, ESR, and CRP all decreased after 3 and 6 months of treatment, with statistical difference (P < 0.05). Cervical rotation also decreased after 6 months of treatment, with statistical difference (P < 0.05). Compared with 3 months of treatment, total effective rate of CM syndrome, ASAS20 and ASAS50 standards arriving rates increased after 6 months of treatment, with statistical difference (P < 0.05). There were statistical differences in all indices mentioned above between after 3 months of treatment and after 6 months of treatment (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSyndrome differentiation based Chinese herbs combined etanercept could alleviate inflammatory reaction favorably, control the progression of active AS, and improve joint functions.
