Objective To study the value of tubal catheterization and hydrotubation using hysteroscopy in the assessment of tubal patency after laparoscopic operations for ectopic pregnancy.Methods Hysteroscopic tubal catheterization and hydrotubation was carried out for evaluating tubal patency in 56 cases of ectopic pregnancy at 2~24 months after laparoscopic salpingectomy or salpingotomy. Results Of 15 cases of salpingectomy,unilateral complete tubal unobstructedness was achieved in 9 cases(60.0%).Of 41 cases of linear salpingotomy,bilateral tubal unobstructedness was found in 18 cases(43.9%) and unilateral in 18 cases(43.9%).A follow-up observation for 4~25 months(mean,10.8 months) in 37 women with childbearing demand showed normal intrauterine pregnancy in 20 cases(54.0%),intrauterine pregnancy after in vitro fertilization(IVF) in 3 cases,and recurrent ectopic pregnancy in 1 case(2.3%).Conclusions Hysteroscopic tubal catheterization and hydrotubation is a direct and accurate procedure for evaluating tubal patency after laparoscopic operations for ectopic pregnancy.It may be taken as a guide in evaluating the possibility of normal intrauterine pregnancy.

BACKGROUND:Our previous studies have shown that the poly(hydroxybutyrate- co-hydroxyvalerate) - sol-gel bioactive glass (PHBV-SGBG) has good biocompatibility and promote bone tissue repair, but its specific role in periodontal tissue regeneration has not been investigated. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the periodontal regenerative effects of a PHBV-SGBG scaffold in beagle dogs. METHODS:Alveolar bone defects (5 mm×5 mm) were surgicaly created bilateraly at the buccal side of the mandibular third and fourth premolars of four beagle dogs. PHBV-SGBG scaffold was randomly filed in the defects as experimental group and nothing was put into the contralateral as control group. Histological and scanning electron microscopy observations, cone-beam CT evaluation and the Ca/P concentration ratio analysis were processed at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After surgery, the height of the regenerated tissue increased with time in both groups, and the regenerated tissue height in the experiment group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). At 12 weeks after surgery, the Ca/P concentration ratio of the experiment group was close to that in the normal tissue (P > 0.05), but higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05); the histological observation showed that the regenerated tissue of the experimental group was close to the normal tissue, and the regenerated tissue of the control group tended to be mature, with a smal amount of new blood vessels. Under the scanning electron microscope, no scaffold structure was visible in the experimental group with the presence of bone lacuna at 8 weeks after surgery, while in the control group, there was no bone lacuna and obvious osteoblasts; at 12 weeks after surgery, the structure of the regenerated tissue of experimental group was more regular and close to the normal tissue with no remarkable osteoblasts, and in the control group, the regenerated tissue was disordered, with several cavity. These results show that the PHBV-SGBG scaffold can enhance periodontal bone regeneration effectively.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the postoperative nutritional status and the incidence of postoperative infection between post-laryngectomy patients with early eternal nutrition and those with normal liquid diet. METHOD: The observational group were given eternal nutrition while the control group were given normal liquid diet. Nutrition indicators (total protein, albumin, globulin, prealbumin, hemoglobin, body weight) and immune parameters (lymphocyte count) were measured at preoperative day 3 and postoperative day 3, 7 and 10. The incidence of complications and postoperative hospitalization days were compared and analyzed. RESULT: Compared with the control group, the total protein, albumin and globulin of observational group had no statistic significance at postoperative day 3, the total protein, albumin,globulin of observational group were higher (P<0. 05) at postoperative day 7 and 10: The body weight had no satisic significance at postoperative day 3 and 7, while observation group higher at postoperative day 10, while the hemoglobin of observational group had no statistic significance: The prealbumin and lymphocyte count had no statistic significance. The postoperative hospitalization days of the observational group was lower (P<0. 05) than the control group. CONCLUSION The early eternal nutrition for post-laryngectomy patients are conducive to improve of nutritional status and reduce the rate of post-operative complications.

The changes of serum malondialdehyde, myeloperoxidase, total antioxidant capacity, superoxide dismutase activity, and glutathione peroxidase were observed in patients with Graves′ disease. The myeloperoxidase level increased in patients with Graves′ disease. The balance between oxidation and antioxidative defense was disrupted in patients with newly-onset Graves′ disease. Oxidative stress seems to be related to hyperthyroidism.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of 3 operative options with selective high level ligation of spermatic veins, transinguinal canal and renovated Potomo's laparoscopic manage-ment of varicocele. Methods From January 1990 to November 2006, 1075 primary varicocele above grade Ⅱ patients accepted the operations, of them, 685 patients had follow up data and were recruited into this study. These patients were divided into 3 groups according to the operative methods:group A (n=369) was treated with open selective high level ligation of spermatic veins, group B (n=218) was treated with open transinguinal canal operation, and group C (n=98) was treated by renovated Polo-mo's laparoscopic management of varicocele. The complications of the 3 operative methods were com-pared, such as recurrence rate, testicular atrophy rate, scrotal edema rate and semen analysis. The therapeutic effects of these 3 methods were evaluated. Results The recurrence rates of the 3 groups were 3.3%, 7.3% and 5.1%, respectively. Group A had significantly lower recurrence rate than group B, P<0.05. The testicular atrophy rates of 3 groups were 0.5%, 17.9% and 9.2%, respec-tively. There were significant differences among the 3 groups (P<0.05). The scrotal edema rates of the 3 groups were 1.4%, 17.4% and 16.3%, respectively. Group B and C had higher risk of scrotal edema than group A, P<0.05. For patients with ages younger than 30, the improved semen quality rate in group A was higher than in group B and C. The improved semen quality rate in each group of patients younger than 30 was higher than patients with age over 30. Conclusion The open selective high level ligation of spermatic veins is the best choice in the treatment for patients with primary sper-matic varicocele.

Objective To investigate the indications and clinical effect of the low-big hole choledochoduodenostomy. Methods Two hundred and ninty-eight patients, had bile duct stone accompanied with common bile duct lower segment stenosis, were prospectively enrolled into the study and randomly divided into the low-big hole choledochoduodenostomy (improved CD ) group (n = 148 ) and the Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy (CJ) group (n = 150). Their perioperative period and long term effect indices were recorded and compared. Results Perioperative period indices:The time of cholangio-jejunostomy was much shorter in improved CD group than the CJ group ([31.0±10.5] min vs [53.0±12.3] min, P＜0.001);The anastomotic leakage was significantly less in improved CD group than the CJ group (2 vs 9, P ＜ 0. 001 ). The long term effect indices: The occurrence of peptic ulcer (3 vs 15 ) and the bile duct cecum or blind loop syndrome (5 vs 158) were significantly lower in group improved CD group than CJ group (Ps＜0.01);The occurrence of bile duct backflow (70 vs 42) was significantly higher in improved CD group than CJ group (P＜0. 0l). Conclusion The clinical effect of the low-big hole choledochoduodenostomy gastrointestinal had excellent effect for bile duct stone accompanied with common bile duct lower segment stenosis, especially for old,weak and critical patients,and it can not be replaced by the Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression and significance of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and P-selectin in hypopharyngeal carcinoma, and explore the relationship of VCAM-1, P-selectin and microvessel density (MVD). METHOD: Expression of VCAM-1 and P-selectin were detected by immunohistochemistry staining in 40 specimens of hypopharyngeal carcinoma and 10 specimens of normal mucosa of oral pharynx. MVD was assessed based on the expression of CD34. RESULT: VCAM-1 and P-selectin were detected in 26 out of 40 (65%) and 29 out of 40 (72.5%) respectively in hypopharyngeal carcinoma, but none that in normal mucosa (P<0.01). MVD in hypopharyngeal carcinoma was higher than that in normal mucosa and it was related to lymph node metastasis. MVD level was significantly higher in VCAM-1 and P-selectin-positive specimens than in negative ones (P<0.01), which also positively correlated with the expression of VCAM-1 and P-selectin (P<0.01). The expression of P-selectin positively correlated with VCAM-1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma specimens with lymph node metastasis. CONCLUSION The higher expression of VCAM-1 and P-selectin play key roles in the invasion and metastasis of hypopharyngeal carcinoma and were correlated with vascularization.
