Objective To investigate the application value of anatomic segmental hepatectomy in treatment of left hepatolithus.Methods The 80 patients with left hepatolithuswere divided into the control group (n =40)and the observation group (n =40)in accordance with dif-ferent surgical methods,and they were given traditional surgery and precise pedicle anatomic segmental hepatectomy respectively.Operation index levels,postoperative complications and stress reaction levels before and after surgery of the two groups were compared.Results The blood loss,operative time,the time of drainage tube remove,time of analgesic drug use,and postoperative hospital stay of the observation group were significantly less than the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).The rate of postoperative com-plications was 17.50% in the control group,while it was 15.00% in the observation group,which showed no significant difference between the two groups (P >0.05).During the surgery,epinephrine,cortisol,IL-6 and CRP levels of patients decreased after a slight increase, while NK cell levels of patients decreased firstly and then increased.There were statistically significant differences in trems of the above inde-xes immediately after surgery to 24 hours after surgery (P <0.05),and the rangeability of the observation group was less than the control group (P <0.05).Until 48 hours after surgery the above indexes recovered to the preoperative level.Followed up for 3 to 24 months,the calculi recurrence rate and abdominal ache recurrence rate of the observation group were lower than the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P <0.05).Conclusion Precise pedicle anatomic segmental hepatectomy applied in the treatment of left hepatolithus showed makedly curative effect,and it has little effect on the stress response of patients.

Objective To characterize the biomarkers of urine samples for early diagnosis of colorectal cancer(CRC)using proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR)combined with pattern recognition.Methods 400 MHz 1H-NMR was used to test the urine samples obtained from 23 patients with Ⅰ/Ⅱ stage CRC,40 healthy controls (HC)and 18 patients with esophageal cancer (EC). Pattern recognition through orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA)was applied on 1H-NMR data to find urine metabolic differences between CRC and HC.Results OPLS-DA could effectively determine HC,patients withⅠ/Ⅱstage CRC and patients with esophageal cancer.Compared with HC,early stage CRC had significant decreases of choline,isocitric acid,lactamine,phenylalan, cysteine,creatinine,aspartic acid,hippurate acid,methylamine,dimethyl sulfone,and increases of acetoacetate,glutamine,glycocyamine,cis-aconitate, trans-aconitate,homocycteine in the urine samples.Conclusion Urine metabonomics based on NMRIndicates that glucose metabolism,amino acid metabolism,choline metabolism,energy metabolism and intestinal microflora are disturbance in colorectal cancer patients,which provide valuable metabolic information on the molecular level for early diagnosis of colorectal cancer.
