Objective To summarize the operative experience of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Method The clinical data of 15 patients underwent transumbilical singleport laparoscopic cholecystectomy between May to October in 2010 was reviewed. Results The operative time was 30-85(45±16) min,hospitalization time was (2.5 ± 1.1 ) d. No surgical complications such as bile leak or uncontrolled hemorrhage occurred postoperatively. All the incision were healed well and the surgical scar was virtually concealed whithin the umbilicus. Conclusions Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy is feasible and safe when patients are well selected. Comparing with conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy, it's more manipulatively difficult.

Objective To investigate the situation and development of international literatures on geriatrics and gerontology in mainland China.Methods The literatures on geriatrics and gerontology written by mainland Chinese scholars as the first author were selected from Thomson Scientific database in 1979-2011 period.Researches on basic theory,summary reports of clinical practice and reviews were collected.The quantity of published articles,article types,international cooperation research and funding programs,hospital rankings,as well as the 2011 geriatrics professional journals,thesis topic disciplines distribution and high-performance papers were analyzed by Thomson Data Analyzer software.Results From 1979 to 2011,the quantity of literatures written by Chinese scholars as the first author (not including Hong Kong,Macao and Taiwan regions) was 1927,including 1769 research articles,86 reviews,18 editorials,54 letters.Average paper was cited 7.6 times and the average number of article citation was 30.6.International cooperation research articles occupied 379 (19.7 ％).Articles with research sponsorship were 734 (38.1 ％),in which most subject discipline was geriatric and gerontology.Conclusions The development of geriatric medicine in China is rapid.The international scientific and technological cooperation is very extensive.It is important to further improve the world impact of geriatric medicine from China.The development of geriatric medicine in a large,cooperative,comprehensive,interdisciplinary,interagency direction,and the prospective,multicenter,cooperative study need to promote.It is extremely urgent to establish the English version of Chinese journals of geriatrics with a international influence.

Objective To analyze the articles published in Chinese Journal of Geriatrics from 2008 to 2012 so as to understand the characteristics of published papers and research progress in geriatric medicine.Methods Based on Wanfang database,bibliometric analysis was conducted to analyze the quantity,types,authors,affiliations,fund support of all the articles published from 2008 to 2012 in Chinese Journal of Geriatrics.Results A total of 1567 papers were published in the journal from 2008 to 2012.The column with the most published papers was clinical research (1008 papers,64.3 ％),followed by experimental researches,reviews and lectures,investigations etc.The discipline with the most articles published in the journal was cardiovascular medicine,followed by surgery,neurology; respiratory etc.1356 authors from 506 affiliations published paper as the first author in the journal during this five years,with the maximal number being 7 papers and the major affiliation being affiliated hospitals of medical colleges (733 papers,49.3 ％).Authors from Beijing,Zhejiang,Jiangsu,Shanghai published more papers than those from other provinces.29.0％ (455papers) of the total papers were supported by fund,among which the majority was provincial fund,followed by national fund,municipal fund,ministry fund and military fund.Conclusions A relatively stable core author group has formed for Chinese Journal of Geriatrics,and the articles are of high quality.Chinese Journal of Geriatrics is one of the highest academic journals in geriatric medicine.

Sleep quality is closely related to human health. It is very important to correctly discriminate the sleep stages for evaluating sleep quality, diagnosing and analyzing the sleep-related disorders. Polysomnography (PSG) signals are commonly used to record and analyze sleep stages. Effective feature extraction and representation is one of the most important steps to improve the performance of sleep stage classification. In this work, a collaborative representation (CR) algorithm was adopted to re-represent the original extracted features from electroencephalogram sig- nal, and then the kernel entropy component analysis (KECA) algorithm was further used to reduce the feature dimension of CR-feature. To evaluate the performance of CR-KECA, we compared the original feature, CR feature and readied CR feature (CR-PCA) after principal component analysis (PCA). The experimental results of sleep stage classification indicated that the CR-KECA method achieved the best performance compared with the original feature, CR feature, and CR-PCA feature with the classification accuracy of 68.74 +/- 0.46%, sensitivity of 68.76 +/- 0.43% and specificity of 92.19 +/- 0.11%. Moreover, CR algorithm had low computational complexity, and the feature dimension after KECA was much smaller, which made CR-KECA algorithm suitable for the analysis of large-scale sleep data.

Objective To investigate the anti tumor effects of cytotoxic T lymphocytes induced by tumor antigen specific dendritic cells. Methods Soluble tumor antigen was prepared by four freeze thaw cycles of gastric tumor cell line SCG7901. Anti gastric tumor vaccine was acquired by co incubation of tumor antigen and mouse bone marrow derived dendritic cells and cultured with granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor and interleukin 4. Antigen specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes were induced by this tumor vaccine from the spleen and were applied to tumor bearing nude mice. Results Tumor growth was significantly inhibited and the apoptosis of tumor cells was promoted extensively. Conclusions Antigen specific dendritic cell tumor vaccine may play an important role in future immunotherapy of gastric cancer.

AIM: To analyze the application on frequency domain optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) technology of pathologic myopia optic disc neurosensory retinal thickness changes and its relationship with axis oculi, sex and age, and help for the early diagnosis of pathological myopia and primary open angle glaucoma.
METHODS:Collected 96 eyes of normal eyes ( axis oculi 23-24mm) and 153 eyes of pathologic myopia eyes ( axis oculi 25-27mm 80 eyes, >27mm 73 eyes). We measured the thickness of nerve fiber layer of the optic disc by OCT and analyzed their relationship with axis oculi, sex and age with multiple linear regression analysis.
RESULTS: The observation group showed significant smaller average thickness of peripapillary, superior, inferior, nasal than the control group ( P<0. 05 ); the difference in the temporal quadrant between the groups were no statistically significant differences (P>0. 05); The partial correlation coefficient of peripapillary average thickness of nerve fiber layer and axis oculi was -1. 31, gender was 5. 21, age was -0. 12.
CONCLUSION:The thickness of nerve fiber layer of the optic disc in the pathologic myopia eyes are decreased than normal eyes, axis oculi, sex and age are influenced factors. The pathologic myopia patients should use different index combined with optic nerve fiber layer thickness decreased to help for the diagnosis of early primary open angle glaucoma.
