Objective To study the mechanism of activity change of gastric alcohol dehydrogenases(ADH).We investigated ADH before and after ingestion of alcohol on rats.Methods Thirty-nine rats were divided into two groups at random:model ones(24 cases) and control ones(15 cases).Model group of rats were infused into stomaches by alcohol,and control ones by distill water.Structures of cell and sub-cell in gastric mucous membrane were observed by enzyme electron microscope and hematoxylin eosin(HE) stain.Results It was shown that there were dropsical degeneration of chief cells and parietal cells of stomaches by HE stain,and the mitochondria of parietal cells and the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum(rER) of chief cells were destroyed by enzyme electron microscope in model groups after two months of ethanol perfusion.There were not change in control group.Conclusions The mechanism of activity alterations of gastric ADH may result from dropsical degeneration of chief cells and parietal cells of stomach,which result in degeneration,solution and breakage of construction of rER in the chief cells and mitochondria in parietal cells.

Objective To observe the curative effect and adverse reactions of IMRT and conventional radiotherapy combined with chem-otherapy in treating patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods The patients were divided into the IMRT group (46 cases) and conventional radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy group ( 50 cases ) . Making the IMRT and conventional radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy treatment plan, and analyze the curative effect and adverse reaction of the two groups. Results Compared with the con-ventional radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy group, IMRT group has a significantly increase in complete remission rate and overall re-sponse rate, but there is no significant difference in long-term efficacy. The skin, dry mouth ( parotid) ,and oral mucositis response is lower in IMRT group, and the neutropenia incidence, prevalence of anemia, liver and kidney function damage rate is also significantly lower than conventional radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy. Conclusion The IMRT can significantly improve the curative effect in treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma and reduce the adverse reactions compared with the conventional radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate facial morphology characteristics of patients with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate (UCCLP) after cleft palate repair in different periods.

METHODS46 nonsyndromic UCCLP patients were chosen as test group and divided into three kinds (under 4-year-old, 4-7-year-old, over 7-year-old) according to periods of palate repair. 38 age and gender matched non-clefts children were involved as control group. 26 cephalometric measurements were measured to evaluate facial morphology of four groups.

RESULTSCompared with patients who received palate repair before 4-year-old, patients who received repair after 4-year-old had more protrusive ANS point (Ba-N-ANS, Ba-ANS) and less Y-axis angle. Patients who received palate repair after 7-yesr-old had greater A-PMP and ANS-PMP than patients who received palate repair before 4-year-old, patients who received palate repair before 7-year-old had smaller ANS-Me but after had no significant difference when compared with non-clefts.

CONCLUSIONWhenever palate repair is undertaken in the period of maxillary growth and development, patients' maxillary growth would be restrained, the delayed repair sample have better lower face height, maxillary protrusion, maxillary sagittal length and mandible growing direction when compared with the early repair sample, that is to say, the delayed repair sample have preferable head-face morphology.

Objective To compare the efficacy of endoscopic sphincterotomy ( EST) combined with large-balloon dilation ( LBD) and that of LBD alone for large bile duct stones. Methods Data of 61 patients who received EST combined with LBD ( the combination group ) and 48 patients who received LBD alone ( the LBD group) from February 2008 to November 2014 were collected. The efficacy and adverse events of two groups were compared. Results The procedure time from successful cannulating to complete stone removal was shorter in the LBD group than that in the combination group [ 17. 3 min ( 8-35 min ) VS 21. 5 min ( 10-42 min) , P=0. 041] . There were no significant differences in overall complete stone removal rate[90. 2％ (55/61) VS 91. 7％ (44/48), P=1. 000] and complete stone removal rate without mechanical lithotripsy[78. 7％ (48/61) VS 83. 3％ (40/48), P=0. 542] in the combination group and the LBD group. Massive bleeding occurred in one patient of the combination group, but was successfully coagulated under endoscopy. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative pancreatitis between the two groups[4. 9％ (3/61) VS 6. 3％ (3/48), P=1. 000]. Conclusion EST combined with LBD offers no significant advantage over LBD alone for the removal of large bile duct stones. LBD can simplify the procedure compared with EST combined with LBD in terms of shortening the procedure time.
