Objective To evaluate the safety and comfort of postoperative patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after interventional therapy in the early stage and late stage, so as to determine the time to get out of bed after operation. Methods We searched PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library (2016 second), Web of Science, CBM, Wanfang Data and CNKI database, collect test/ambulation time of hepatocellular carcinoma after interventional therapy were searched from inception to September 10, 2016. Meta analysis was performed by 2 reviewers independently by screening literature, extracting data and evaluating the risk of bias in the study. RevMan 5.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results A total of 9 studies were included in the study, and 1164 patients were included. The Meta analysis results showed that:compared with 24 hours in bed after operation, 12 hours early ambulation method to reduce postoperative pain, postoperative [odds radio (OR)=0.07, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.03-0.15, P <0.05] and dysuria (OR =0.18, 95% CI 0.10-0.33, P < 0.05), abdominal distension (OR =0.14, 95% CI 0.07-0.29, P<0.05), insomnia (OR=0.15, 95% CI 0.05-0.43, P<0.05). But in the local punctura, such as congestion (OR=0.99, 95%CI 0.45-2.18, P=0.98), hematoma (OR=0.90, 95% CI 0.38-2.13, P=0.80), the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions The available evidence indicates that the early postoperative 12 hours after interventional therapy can effectively reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. To be included in the quantity and quality of the research, the conclusion still need to carry out more high-quality research to be verified.

Objective To investigate the short term effect of gastric bypass surgery for the treatment of nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus and possible mechanisms. Methods The clinical data of 58 patients with nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus who received gastric bypass surgery from March to August, 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. The levels of fasting plasms glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (2h PG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were dynamically monitored, and the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and body mass index ( BMI) were calculated. All data were analyzed using variance of analysis and LSD test. Results Of the 58 patients, 48 (83% ) met the requirement of complete response criteria and stopped administration of hypoglycemic agents; 7( 12% ) had to use hypoglycemic agents, but the dose of the agents was lowered by 50% compared to that before surgery. The surgery was ineffective in 3 patients (5% ). The levels of FPG, 2h PG, HbAlc and HOMA-IR of the 58 patients showed a significant decreasing trend after surgery when compared to those before surgery (F = 67. 867, 50. 885, 78. 278, 572. 757, P <0.05), while there was no significant change of the BMI after surgery ( F = 3. 503, P > 0. 05 ). Conclusions Gastric bypass surgery has a good effect on nonobese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus whose BMI was less than 25 kg/m2. The improvement of insulin resistance after the surgery might be the main reason.

In order to investigate the relationship between sex dysplasia and sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene, 8 patients with sexual abnormality were analyzed by cytogenetic and molecular genetic methods. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using PY3.4, X alpha satellite, and SRY probes was performed in each case to analyze the sex chromosome translocation and gene translocation. SRY gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and its mutation was detected by direct sequencing. The results showed that among 8 patients, 5 were positive for SRY and the remaining negative for SRY. In the patients positive for SRY genes, 3 presented testes and the left 2 streak ovaries. In the patients negative for SRY, only one case presented testes, while 2 ovaries. Direct sequencing demonstrated that all SRY genes were normal in the patients positive for SRY genes. FISH technique demonstrated that SRY genes translocated from Ypter to Xpter in 2 46,XX phenotypic males positive for SRY genes. It was concluded that SRY gene is strongly involved in male sex determination, while a sequence of other genes may be taken into account in sexual development.
