Objective:To observe effects of Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe on blood growth hormone (GH) and insulin growth factor(IGF-1) in chronic renal failure(CRF) rats.Methods:Platt method was adopted to make 5/6 kidney excision CRF model rat,and the rats were divided into model group,Huangqi group,Enalapril group,Danshen group,Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe group and normal control group according to the blood creatinine level after modeling.Effects of Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe on GH and IGF-1 levels in CRF rats with large quantity of urinal protein were investigated.Results:GH and IGF-1 levels in the model control group were significantly higher than that in normal control group,and after treatment of Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe,blood GH and IGF-1 levels were significantly decreased.Conclusion:Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe can decrease blood GH and IGF-1 levels in CRF rats,and can delay advances of CRF.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of different background volumes of ropivacaine in continuous tibial nerve block of postoperative analgesia after calcaneal surgery.Methods:This study was a prospective,randomized,controlled study.Sixty cases of calcaneal visual analogue scale (ASA)ⅠorⅡundergoing elective surgery were selected and randomly assigned to two groups,thirty cases in each group.The patients received popliteal fossa posterior tibial nerve block using ultrasound guided.The con-tinuous stimulation catheter was inserted after successful position and the 0.2%ropivacaine was injected. The background volumes of the A and B groups were 5 mL/h and 3.2 mL/h.The VAS score,the senso-ry block and motor block of tibial nerve and common peroneal nerve,and the satisfaction of the patients at h 12,h 24 and h 48 were recorded after catheter insertion.Results:The VAS scores at the three time points (h 12,h 24 and h 48)on the two groups of the patients were compared,and the difference was not statistically significant (P >0.05).The difference of the sensory block and the motor block of the tibial nerve at the three time points (h 12,h 24 and h 48)on the two groups of the patients were also compared,and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05).The difference of the sensory block and the motor block of common peroneal nerve at h 48 hs was statistically significant,group A was higher than the group B (P<0.05).The difference of the patient satisfaction at the three time points (h 12,h 24 and h 48)on the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05).Conclusion:The use of 0.2% ropivacaine with the background volume of 3.2 mL/h in continuous tibial nerve block can pro-vide good analgesia and reduce the incidence of the sensory block and motor block of the common perone-al nerve.

From the view of medical professionals, this paper explored the standards of residents′ competency cultivation in Zhuhai using Delphi method. The research outcome that consisted of 53 factors and 6 dimensions was obtained after two rounds of expert consultation. There are 6 first-level indexes including professionnalism and body-mind quality, clinical practice skill, the competency of lifelong learning and self-improvement, humanistic medicine practice skill, medical knowledge, and the competency of promoting the medical system to develop. As well, there are 18 second-level indexes and 29 third-level indexes. The standards stated that the clinical prac-tice skill would not be the main part of residents′competency cultivation. Qualified residents should reach the na-tional standard of the clinical practice skill but also the other five indexes.

Objective To summarize the experience of diagnosis,treatment and clinical effects of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy embracing fixator for severe chest trauma complicated with multiple rib frac-tures.Methods From January 2009 to June 2013,the clinical data of 148 cases with embracing fixator and 47 cases with non-internal fixation were retrospectively analyzed and compared.Results Internal fix-ation was superior to non-internal fixation in hospital stay,pain perception,mechanical ventilation time, pulmonary function recovery and complications(P<0.05).Conclusion Ni-Ti shape memory alloy em-bracing fixator is better than other conservative therapies in the treatment of multiple rib fractures and it's worthy of spreading.

Objective To evaluate retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Methods From June of 1999 to January of 2001, retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed on 52 patients with adrenal diseases, including 34 cases of aldosterone-preducing adenoma,3 nodular hyperplasia bilateral in 1, 5 Cushing's syndrom,1 Cushing's disease, 3 adrenal pheochromacytoma (bila- teral in 1), 4 nonfunctional adrenal adenoma, 1 myelolipoma and 1 metastasis carcinoma. Results 54 sessions of retroperitoneal adrenalectomy have been carried out for 52 patients (2 on both sides) with success in 51 procedures. The procedure was converted to open operation in 3 occasions because of bleeding or adhesion. The mean operation time was 135 minutes (40～270 min), and the estimated blood loss 45 ml (5～150 ml) with no need of transfusion. The postoperative hospital stay was 6 d (3～14 d) and the mean analgesia consumed 8.5 mg (0～50 mg) of morphine equivalents with no need of any analgesic at all in 17 patients. Conclusions Retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was less traumatic to the patients, with less postoperative discomfort and quicker recovery. The procedure should be considered as the first choice of therapy for benign adrenal diseases.

Objective To evaluate retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of primary aldosteronism. Methods Retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery was performed in 90 patients with primary aldosteronism (92 sites on either or both sides).Their clinical indicators were compared with those of 30 cases undergoing open surgery. Results Retroperitoneal laparoscopic procedures were successfully performed in 91 of the 92 sides.In these successful cases,mean operative time was 93 minutes (compared with 114 minutes in open surgery cases),mean volume of blood loss was 36 ml (compare with 87 ml),mean postoperative hospital stay was 6.8 d(compared with 11.0 d),mean time to flatus was 1.6 d (compared with 3.1 d),and mean time to walk around was 2.1 d(compared with 3.3 d), P

AIM: To compare the effect of treating cataract by sodium hyaluronate injection and lens - loop nucleus extraction of small incision cataract excision and explore more suitable method to promote the use of surgery in primary hospital.
METHODS: All 146 cataract patients ( 166 eyes ) were allocated to two groups in random: the control group 78 patients ( 84 eyes ) received conventional lens loop for extracapsular cataract extraction;the experiment group 68 patients (82 eyes) underwent nucleus extraction in small incision with sodium hyaluronate injection for extracapsular cataract extraction. Postoperative visual acuity and intraoperative and postoperative complications were compared between two groups.
RESULTS: Incidence of posterior capsule rupture difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05) in small incision nucleus extraction with sodium hyaluronate injection compared with conventional lens loop for extracapsular cataract extraction. And there was no significant difference ( P> 0. 05 ) in postoperative visual acuity, astigmatism degree and postoperative complications compared with those of pre-operation.
CONCLUSION: Compared with the lens loop nucleus extraction, sodium hyaluronate injection for extracapsular cataract extraction can effectively protect the posterior lens capsule and can be promoted in small incision cataract surgery.
