OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Yigan Fupi Decoction (YFD) in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) patients.

METHODSA randomized controlled clinical trail was carried out in patients with IBS-D. All patients were randomly assigned to the treatment group (58 cases, treated with YFD) and the control group (58 cases, treated with Pinaverium Bromide Tablet). The treatment course was 4 weeks for all patients. The total effective rate, the stool property and state, the quality of life (QOL), and TCM syndrome efficacy were assessed by IBS bowel symptom severity scale (IBS-BSS), IBS defecation state questionnaire (IBS-DSQ), IBS quality of life questionnaire (IBS-QOL), and traditional Chinese medicine pattern curative effect scoring system (TCM-PES) before and after treatment.

RESULTSThere was no statistical difference in the total effective rate between the two groups (82.76% vs. 77.59%, P > 0.05). The treatment group was superior in the total IBS-BSS integral to the control group (P < 0.05). The total effective rate of improving the stool property was better in the treatment group than in the control group (81.03% vs. 72.41%, P < 0.05). Besides, the number of days for emergent defecation among 10 days was less in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The improvement of the total IBS-QOL integral and the total integral of TCM syndrome were better in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.01). The total effective rate of TCM-PES was better in the treatment group than in the control group (84.48% vs. 70.69%, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONYFD was effective in the treatment of IBS-D patients of Gan-qi invading Pi syndrome, and could effectively relieve bowel symptoms, improve the stool property and the defecation frequency, elevate their QOL, and attenuate Gan-qi invading Pi syndrome with favorable safety and compliance.

AlM: To observe the therapeutic effects of improved external dacryocystorhinostomy.
METHODS:Retrospective analysis on 94 patients with monocular chronic dacryocystitis in our hospital from October 2010 to December 2013 were taken the improved external dacryocystorhinostomy. The improved surgery which was based on the traditional surgery including: 1. Nasal packing after anesthesia to relieve the pain and bleeding; 2. Not cut the medial palpebral ligament; 3. Suture the upper membrane of the nasal mucosa only;4. Pipe placement;5. Skin layered hairdressing suture. The patients were follow-up 3mo-2a after operation.
RESULTS: Ninety-three cases of patients cured with completely asymptomatic, no epiphora or mucopurulent secretion flow out from the lacrimal punctum, unobstructed lacrimal irrigation, the efficiency is 99%, 1 case of patient was epiphora, obstructed lacrimal irrigation, 1% was invalid.
CONCLUSlON:The improved external dacryocystorhinostomy is an effective surgical method which is easy to operate with high cure rate and its long term effect is precise.

Objective To evaluate the effect of double stapling technique for sphincter preservation operation in mediate-low rectal carcinoma.Methods The resection through double stapling technique for sphincter preservation approach was performed on 30 patients with mediate-low rectal carcinoma from January 2004 to November 2007.The distance between the anal verge and the lower margin of the tumor was 4～8cm(averaged 6.5 cm),including 22 patients in Dukes A stage,6 Dukes B and 2 Dukes C.Results Fecal continences were preserved successfully in all patients.2 cases had got anastomotic narrowing(6.6%) after operation.At a median follow-up of 46 months,two patients had local recurrences(6.6%).There was no urinary dysfunction in this series.Conclusion Double stapling technique for sphinceter preservation operation was feasible and safe,provide a original operative style for mediate-low rectal carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the effect of procaine on prevention of skin slap necrosis after modified radical mastectomy in breast cancer.Methods 106 breast cancer patients were randomly divided into treatment and control groups.In the treatment group,procaine(1% 100ml diluted in 300ml mormal saline,42℃)were compressed under the skin flap in operation,the control group received same amount of normal salin instead.The rates and sizes of skin flap necrosis were obeserved and compared.Results There were 13 cases suffured from skin flap necrosis among 106 breast cancer cases who received surgery operation.The rate of the flap necrosis in treatment group was5.76%(3/52),and the control group was 18.51%(10/54),there was significant difference(P

Objective To learn the impacts of major diagnosis, other diagnoses, major surgery and other surgeries on the grouping of DRGs, and to optimize the DRGs data grouping quality by analyzing the main influencing factors of DRGs.Methods Based on regrouping results of the 1 940 questionable cases which have been corrected, using SPSS 13.0 to study the impacts of the questions found on the grouping of DRGs.Results 438 Patient records affecting DRGs grouping were regrouped according to major diagnosis, other diagnoses, major surgery and other surgeries.Influences of the above four groups on the grouping vary in general For comparison between two groups, P＞0.007 1 between main surgery and other surgeries;while P＜0.007 1 for comparison between other groups.Conclusion The highest influence of grouping was found in questionable major diagnosis, much higher than such other factors as other diagnoses, major surgery and other surgeries.This conclusion conforms to the steps of basic DRGs grouping logic-sorting the eases according to major diagnosis first of all Correct naming of surgery influences DRGs grouping, but the influence extent of major surgery and other surgeries is close.

A kind of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) apparatus is developed to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT),which is based on the theory of occurrence and prevention of the DVT and AT89C52 micro-controller. This paper introduces its principle, composition of electromechanical system and the software design. The apparatus has showed its characteristics of easy operation, high intelligence and high reliability.
