In recent years,research on autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) has gained significant progress.AIP is a special type of chronic pancreatitis which is mediated by an autoimmune mechanism.It is characterized by the infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells leading to pancreatic fibrosis and dysfunction.AIP can affect the bile ducts,salivary glands,kidneys and other organs outside the pancreas.The common manifestations include obstructive jaundice,abdominal pain,and weight loss,which are similar to pancreatic cancer.Steroid therapy is of significant effect.There is no consensus nowadays on the diagnostic criteria of AIP across the world.There are many studies on the pathological subtypes,imaging,serological markers and biopsy techniques on AIP,and research focuses on the differential diagnosis from pancreatic cancer.

Objective To investigate effect of urinary conditions and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients before and after the reconstructive pelvic surgery (RPS) for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) as well as effect of urinary conditions and LUTS by tension-free vaginal tape-obturator (TVT-O).Methods From Jan. 2007 to Dec. 2009, 213 patients with POP underwent RPS, the factors on preoperative, postoperative urinary conditions and qualities of life and postoperative urinary incontinence were studied prospectively. Results Totally 193 patients who was followed up for more than 3 months after surgery attend questionnaires, and 165 preoperative patients of 193 (85.5%) had LUTS, 105 postoperative patients of 193 (54.4%) had LUTS, which reached statistical difference (P ＜0. 01 ). The rate of LUTS before and after operation: urinary frequency ( 57.0% and 25.9% ), urinary urgency ( 51.8% and 28.0% ), urinary leakage due to cough ( 50. 3% and 15.0% ), dropping urinary leakage ( 44. 6% and 14. 5% ), dysuria (34. 7% and 23.3% ), vesicaltenesmus (49.2% and 19. 7% ) and hand assist urination (31.1% and 2.6% ). The incidence of LUTS after surgery is much lower than that of pre-operation ( P ＜0. 05 ). POP patients with stress urinary incontinence ( SUI ) before the operation, surgery without TVT-O simultaneously are the risk factors of unimproved symptom ( OR = 4. 933, 95% CI: 1. 353 - 17. 990, P=0. 016). Conclusions RPS have alleviated LUTS in patients with POP. RPS with TVT-O are more effective than traditional RPS in treatment of the urinary incontinence if the POP patient with SUI or occult SUI.

Objective To investigate the long-term effects of intrauterine mild hyperglycemia exposure and postnatal high fat diet on the body weight and metabolism of offspring through a pregnant rat model of intrauterine mild hyperglycemia.Methods Twenty-one pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into intrauterine hyperglycemia group and control group.Twenty percent streptozotocin (STZ,25 mg/kg)was given to rats of intrauterine hyperglycemia group by a single intraperitoneal injection to induce intrauterine mild hyperglycemia; control group rats received an equal volume of citric acid-sodium citrate buffer.Off springs were divided into 4 groups:exposed to intrauterine hyperglycemia and fed with normal diet group(group DN)or high fat diet group (group DF) ; exposed to intrauterine euglycemia and fed with normal diet group(group CN)or high fat diet group(group CF).The blood glucose levels of pregnant rats in two groups and body weights of offsprings in four groups were recorded.At the age of 28 weeks,the mesenteric fat amount,epididymal amount,perirenal fat amount,total triglyceride (TG)and high density 1 ipoprotein-cholestrol(HDL-C) were measured in all four groups.Results (1) The average blood glucose level of intrauterine hyperglycemia group[(16.6 ± 3.4) mmol/L] was significantly higher than that of the control group [(5.8 ± 1.1) mmol/L,P ＜ 0.01].(2) On the birth day,3 weeks and 4 weeks,the body weight of group DN [(7.4 ± 0.6),(44.1 ± 5.9),(79.6 ± 7.4) g] and group DF [(7.4 ± 0.2),(43.9 ±6.9),(76.1 ± 5.8) g] were remarkably increased compared with group CN [(6.6 ± 0.5),(35.6 ± 4.4),(71.5±6.8) g,P＜0.05]; but the body weight in group CF [(6.7 ±0.5),(33.0 ±6.5),(66.1 ±10.2) g] had no statistical difference compared with group CN(P ＞ 0.05).(3)From then on,the bodyweights of the offsprings in four groups presented an increasing trend,but there was no statistical difference until 28 weeks(P ＞0.05).(4) The perirenal fat amount of group DN,group CF and group DF [(13.8 ±3.3),(14.3 ± 3.2),(18.4 ± 1.3) g] were remarkably increased compared with group CN [(9.7 ± 3.5) g,P ＜ 0.05] ; the epididymal fat amount of group CF and group DF were also significantly increased compared to group CN(P ＜ 0.05) ; the mesenteric fat amount in four groups had no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).(5) The TG level of group DN,group CF and group DF[(0.52 ±0.14),(0.52 ±0.09),(0.54 ±0.17)mmol/L] were significantly higher compared to group CN [(0.41 ± 0.09) mmol/L,P ＜ 0.05],but there was no statistical difference within the first three groups (P ＞ 0.05) ; the HDL-C level in four groups had no statistical difference(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions In intrauterine mild hyperglycemia environment,there were some evidently metabolic changes observed in the offspring,including body weight increasing on birth day and early postnatal period,visceral fat amount increasing and lipid metabolism disorders,which could be aggravated by postnatal high fat diet.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the status quo of the application of Chinese traditional medicines andthe problemslie in the development of the application of Chinese traditional medicine.METHODS:The Chinese traditional medicines used in outpatients from Apr.2006to Apr.2007in our patient were analyzed statistically in respect of the consumption sum,con-sumption quantity and drug category.RESULTS:Leading the list in terms of consumption quantity in the outpatient depart-ment were heat-clearing drugs,detoxicating drugs,dampness-drying drugs and haemostatics.The utilization of Chinese traditional medicines in outpatients was standard on the whole,but there were still some irrational phenomena.CONCLU-SION:To enhance the curative efficacy of Chinese traditional medicines and standardize their use,the co-effort of both hospital staff and the society is much needed.

Objective To evaluate the influence of partial parenteral nutrition on serum osmotic pressure,blood glucose,(biochemistry),bilirubin metabolism,immune function,growth and development of premature infants.Methods Seventy premature infants were randomly divided into control group and study group.On the base of enteral feeding,study group were offered parenteral nutrition, while the control group were supplied 10% glucose, fluid and electrolytes. Simultaneously, relevant indices were measured in 2 groups.Results 1.There were no significant difference in serum osmotic pressure,blood glucose and biochemistry before and after parenteral nutrition. 2.There were no significant difference in emerging and lasting time of jaundice between 2 groups.3.Serum IgG,IgA,IgM,C_3,CD4 and CD4/CD8 in study group were significantly higher than those in control group. 4.In study group the time of hospitalization and birth-weight regain were significantly shorter than those in control group.Conclusions There is no significant influence on serum osmotic pressure,blood glucose, biochemistry and bilirubin metabolism during partial parenteral nutrition. Parenteral nutrition may help gain weight, shorten the time of hospitalization, and improve immunological function of neonates.
