Eighty received laparoscopy and 13 received laparotomy.The off work day, hospital charge, cost of no work and total cost were analyzed and compared.Results: The mean hospital stay and off work days were significantly shorter in the laparoscopy group than in the laparotomy group( P

Objective: To introduce an improved direct method for first puncture and to study the safety of first puncture in laparoscopic surgery.Methods: Four kinds of techniques were used to perform the first puncture on 4 102 patients.Group A: trocar puncture were performed after pneumoperitoneum in 2 492 cases.Group B: trocar puncture was directly through the incision of umbilical skin in 798 patients; Group C: trocar puncture was directly through the incision of umbilic skin,subcutancous fat and fascia in 387 patients.Group D: opened umbilical hole and inserted the trocar shell without puncture in 425 cases.it was a success if entered the abdominal cavity at the first time,it was unsafe if punctured twice and a failure if the needle hadn't entered the abdominal cavity for 3 times or went into the subcutaneous vessels or viscera.Results: There were no vessels and viscera injury during punctures in our study.The puncture results were related to the different methods.Compared with group A, the success rate of group C and D were significantly improved( P 0.05).Success rates of group C and D were significantly higher than that of group A.The success rate was higher in group D than in group C( P

Objective In this report the proteomics technique was used for analysis of the Molecu-lar marker related acute rejection after liver transplantation.Methods Highly abundant proteins in human serum were deleted using Aurum Serum Protein Mini Kit and separated by 2-DE.The maps were analyzed by ImageMaster 2D Platinum software.The differential proteins on the gel were did in gel digestion with trypsin and then identified by nanoUPLC-ESI-MS/MS.Results Reproducible 2-DE image was successfully ob-tained.2 up-regulated expressed protein spots were identified clearly are serum amyloid A protein.Conclu-sions In this study, it was confirmed that SAA expression upregulate after transplantation in patients with acute rejection by proteomics technique, This method may provide clues to the early diagnosis of liver al-lograft rejection.

PXR, CAR and PPAR, widely distributed in the body, are important members of the nuclear receptors (NRs) family. The activities and gene expressions of drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) and transporters can be regulated by the activation of NRs, which effect the drug disposition. Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the leading cause of failure in cancer therapy. NRs, including PXR, CAR and PPAR, were shown to regulate the expressions of DMEs and transporters involved in the drug metabolism and clearance, suggesting that the modulation of NRs can be considered as a new target to overcome MDR. This review described the research progress of NR family members PXR, CAR, PPAR and their transcriptional activation mechanism, the regulation of DMEs and transporters by NRs, which may provide a valuable reference for clinical medication and overcome of MDR.

Background Glaucoma is a kind of psychosomatic disorder.Investigating the psychological and behavioral characteristics of glaucoma patients has important implication for the prevention and treatment of the disease.Objective Present study aimed to characterize the personality profile of initial diagnosed glaucomatous patients.Methods Eighty-seven patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG),ninety-two patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and eighty-nine normal controls (normal control group) were enrolled in this study from January 2008 to May 2014 in Peking University People 's Hospital.Clinical and demographic information which could relate to personality type was collected by filling in Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90),Life Event Scale (LES),Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ),Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) voluntarily under the informed consent.The psychological,personality and behavior characteristics of the individuals were analyzed and compared among the different populations.Results In SCL-90,the scores of compulsivity,interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety,hostility,phobic anxiety,paranoid ideation and psychoticism inpatients with primary glaucoma were significant different among the three groups (all at P＜0.01),and the scores were significantly higher in the patients of the POAG group and PACG group than those in the normal control group,and the scores were increased in the PACG group compared with the POAG group (all at P＜0.05).In LES,the scores of family events,social intercourse and other events,life events,stress response were significantly different among the three groups (P =0.032,0.002,0.001,0.000),and these scores were significant higher in the POAG group and PACG group compared with the normal control group,and the PACG group also had a significantly greater frequency of clinically abnormal score than the POAG group (all at P＜0.05).EPQ data showed that the scores of psychology and nervousness in the POAG group and the PACG group were higher than those in the normal control group (all at P＜0.05),but no significant difference were found in extroversion and stability of the personality among the three groups (P=0.321,0.315).The total scores of SAS and SDS were considerably higher in the POAG group and the PACG group compared with the normal control group or the PACG group compared with the POAG group (all at P＜0.05).The incidences of anxiety and depression were elevated in the POAG group and the PACG group in comparison with the normal control group (x2 =15.520,P =0.000 ; x2 =14.870,P =0.000).Conclusions The personality and behavioral factors are associated with the pathogenesis,development and therapy of primary glaucoma.The anxiety,depression and stronger stress response are found in glaucoma patients,especially PACG patients.

Objective To identify potential candidate genes related to the cancerous phenotype by analyzing databases publicly available. Methods Using a data-mining tool called Digital Differential Display (DDD) from the Cancer Gene Anatomy Project database, ESTs from 17 different tumor types were analyzed for differential expression. Results We obtained 130 up-regulated and 159 down-regulated genes, most of which are related to cytoskeleton, ribosomal subunit, substance metabolism, cell cycle, signal conduction, transcription and translation. These genes appear most frequently on chromosome 12 but rarely on chromosome 21 and Y. Conclusion In silico identification is a high-throughput screening strategy. Our study may lay a foundation for identification of future caner markers and provide a new thought for screening strategy of cancer markers.

Acute liver failure and end-stage liver diseases are llfe-threatening.So far,orthotopic liver transplantation is the unique treatment available for these late-stage liver diseases,which,however,is limited by the lack of donor liver.While hepatocyte transplantation,bioartificial liver and tissue engineered liver are potential alternative treatments,the limited availability of functional hepatoeytes is the major hurdle.Due to their extensive capacity for self-renewal and pluripotency to differentiate into cells,embryonic stem cells represent a potential unlimited cell source for therapy.The clinical application of embryonic stem cells in liver diseases requires well-defined and efficient protocols for differentiation,characterization and purification in vitro.Hepatic differentiation of embryonic stem cells in different culttire systelns and the problems remained are reviewed in this article.
