Objective To compare the video-assisted laparoscopic lumbar gangliosympathectomy with open lumbar gangliosympathectomy on their advantages and disadvantages. Method From June 2002 to May 2006, a total of 21 adults with Buerger's disease underwent the video-assisted laparoscopic lumbar gangliosympathectomy. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization time, postoperative effects and postoperative complications were analyzed. The data of the 21 cases were compared with those from other 27 cases with Buerger's disease who had undergone open lumbar gangliosympathectomy in the same period. Results The operation time was longer in the laparoscopic group (174?14.84min) than that in the open group (132?32.81min, P

Objective To research regional anatomy of lumbar sympathetic trunk and provide anatomic information for video-assisted laparoscopic lumbar sympathectomy(VALLS).Methods Lumbar sympathetic trunk and its neighboring anatomic relation in 128 sides of adult cadavers and 21 clinic VALLS were retrospectively reviewed.Results ① The location,shape and number of the sympathetic ganglia were quite variable.There was 1 to 6 in number unilaterally.② Lumbar sympathetic trunks of 12 sides in 128 sides were found dividing into 2-3 branches at the distal part.③ Lumbar arteries were all located under the lumbar sympathetic trunk and the lumbar veins consisting 68.42% situated superficially to the trunk.④ Genitofemoral nerve pierced the psoas muscle at the level of 2nd to 4th vertebrate or its intervertebral disc.It was only(0.81?0.48)cm away from the medial rim of the psoas muscle.⑤ Distance between ureter-iliac vessel junction and the lateral rim of the psoas muscle was(3.36?0.59)cm at left side and(3.41?0.59)cm at right side.The operation time was 2-3.5 hours and the intraoperative blood loss was 50-80 ml.There were no severe complications and the effects were satisfying.Conclusion Because of great variants and complex neighboring anatomic relation of lumbar sympathic nerve,the critical factor of successful microinvasive VALLS is to grasp the laparoscopic operation skill and anatomy of retroperitoneal space(especially the regional anatomy of lumbar sympathetic trunk)and carefully operating.

Objective To study systematically regional anatomy of lumbar sympathetic trunk to provide anatomic information for endoscopic lumbar sympathectomy (VALLS). Method The anatomy of the lumbar sympathetic trunk and its relationship with neighboring structures were studied in 128 sides of adult cadavers, and it was substantiate in 13 cases of endoscopic lumbar sympathectomy. Results (1) The location, shape and number of the sympathetic ganglia were quite variable. The number varied from 1 to 6 on one side. (2) It was found that the lumbar sympathetic trunk split into 2-3 branches at the distal portion. (3) Lumbar arteries were all located under the lumbar sympathetic trunk and the lumbar veins situated superior to the trunk in 68.42%±4.35% of instance. (4) Genitofemoral nerve was found to pierce the psoas muscle at the level of 2nd to 4th vertebra or its intervertebral discs. It was only 0.81±0.48 cm away from the medial rim of the psoas muscle. (5) Distance between ureter- iliac vessel junction and the lateral edge of the psoas muscle was 3.36±0.59 cm on the left side, and 3.41±0.59 cm on the right side. (6) A report of the experience of our 13 VALLS was presented. Conclusions Because of great variation and complicated anatomic relation between lumbar sympathetic trunk with its neighboring structures, familiarity to the anatomy of the retroperitoneal space is cracial for a successful minimal invasive laparoscopic lumbar sympathectomy.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficiency of laparoscopic-guided radiofrequency ablation on advanced prostate cancer.Methods From March 2003 to December 2008,a total of 6 previous prostate cancer patients who had been diagnosed with pathological results were treated by laparoscopic-guided radiofrequency ablation.All patients underwent pre-and post-operative IPSS,serum PSA,MRI and normal blood biochemistry examination.The treatment outcome,surgery-related complications were also recorded.Results All operations were successfully completed,no serious intra-and post-operative complications happened.Although there was no significant difference of IPSS between pre-operative [ ( 19.05 + 4.28 ) scores ] and 1 month after operation [ ( 19.87 + 5.72) scores ],but there were significantly decreased in 3 months [ (9.45 ± 2.03 ) scores ] and 6 months [ (6.18 + 1.79) scores ] after operation (P ＜0.05).Also being followed up to 6 months after operation,the serum PSA was significantly decreased compared with the pre-operative value [from(24.80 ± 14.56) μ g/L reduced to( 13.79 ± 7.76) μ g/L](P＜0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic-guided radiofrequency ablation on advanced prostate cancer is safe and feasible,and can be used as an effective treatment in selective cases.

Objective: To compare the influence of two explorers on the enamel of artificial initial caries. Methods: Built an artificial initial caries model in vitro. Compared the influence of two explorers on the enamel of artificial initial caries. Results: 1.The holes probed by sharp explorer were deep and narrow. The holes probed by CPI explorer were shallow and wide. 2. The average strain energy produced by CPI explorer was larger than sharp explorer(Z=-2.021,P=0.043), But there was no significant difference because the strain energy produced by two explorers were in the same rate range. Conclusion: The damage on the enamel of artificial initial caries caused by sharp explorer is not larger than that caused by CPI explorer. So we suggest that the sharp explorer can still be used in sampling survey and clinical examination. But a gentle probing action is strongly recommended.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the present situation of scientific research of clinical pharmacists in domestic third-grade class A hospitals,and discuss its feasible research ideas. METHODS:Questionnaire was conducted for the scientific research situa-tion of clinical pharmacists who obtained the certification in domestic 63 third-grade class A hospitals,the questionnaire data was collected,and data was statistically analyzed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0 software. RESULTS:Totally 315 questionnaires were sent out,282 were effectively received,with effective recovery of 89.52%. In terms of attitude to scientific research,propor-tion of the surveyed clinical pharmacists who thought it was quite necessary and necessary was more than 70%;except for academ-ic degree(P<0.05),the different gender,age and job title did not cause the differences in scientific research attitude(P>0.05). In terms of the present situation of scientific research,achievements of them were relatively simple,thinking the biggest difficulty was insufficient of experiment condition;there was significant difference in the numbers of authorized patents in recent 5 years by different gender (P<0.05),the numbers of applications for approved funds,authorized patents and paper published in recent 5 years by different academic degrees(P<0.05),as well as the numbers of applications for approved off-campus funds(title also re-lated to the number of hospital funds)and the numbers of paper published in domestic magazine in recent 5 years by different ages and job titles (P<0.05). In terms of direction of scientific research,most of surveyed clinical pharmacists thought they should strengthen communicate with physicians and look for the breakthrough point,they also thought the optimal one was clinical re-search;the direction selection was basically similar no matter the gender,academic degree,age and job title(P>0.05). In terms of ability enhancement,the surveyed pharmacists thought liter-ature review,evidence-based literature/experimental interpreta-tion and foreign language reading were the abilities most need to be enhanced;except for gender,academic degree,age andjob title showed similarity in enhancing the literature review,evidence-based literature/experimental interpretation ability (P>0.05),while there were significant differences in enhancing foreign language reading ability by different gender,academic degree, age and job title (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Clinical pharmacists show certain differences in the attitude to scientific research, present situation and direction of scientific research,and ability enhancement because of different gender,academic degree,age and job title,but there are also common. In order to improve the competence of scientific research and promote the discipline devel-opment of clinical pharmacy,pharmacy administrator in hospital should improve the academic degree and job title on clinical phar-macists and provide necessary advanced scientific platform and pertinent training at the same time. Additionally,except for the ratio-nal drug use,evidence-based pharmacy and pharmacoeconomics,clinical pharmacists can find new breakthrough point from phar-maceutical care,drug treatment decisions,translational medicine and medicine large data.
