Objective To study the effects of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis on serum interleukin 1? (IL-1?) and tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?) levels in liver ischemic preconditioning (IP) in rats. Methods 169 rats were randomly divided into ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) group, IP group,L-arginine plus IP (L-Arg+IP) group and sham operation group (S group). The concentrations of plasma NO, serum IL-1? and TNF-? were measured at 2h, 24h and 1 week after models were set up. Results ⑴ Plasma NO concentrations: In group IP and group L-Arg+IP,the NO concentration at all the 3 time points were significantly higher than those in group S (P0 05). Conclusions Liver ischemic preconditioning could down-regulate the levels of blood IL-1? and TNF-?, which may relate to the increase of NO synthesis. The increase of NO synthesis could enlarge this down-regulation effect, and further enhance the protective effect of IP on the liver I/R injury.

Breast cancer is called "Ruyan" in literature of traditional Chinese medicine. We synthesized the ancient and contemporary discussions and raised the theory that "Duxie" (poisonous pathogenic factor) is the etiological factor and pathologic product through the whole course of breast cancer. "Liuyin Fudu" (latent poison of six exogenous pathogenic factors) and "Qiqing Yudu" (stagnant poison of seven emotions) are the main etiological factors affecting the breast cancer occurrence. "Aidu Neisheng" (internal product of cancer poison) is the essential change in breast cancer occurrence. "Tandu Yujie" (stagnation of phlegm, poison and blood stasis) is the essential pathogenesis of the breast cancer's development. "Yudu Weiqing" (vestigial poison) is the main pathogenesis of breast cancer after operation. "Yudu Pangcuan" (vestigial poison invasion elsewhere) is the key pathogenesis of recurrence and metastasis after operation. "Sanjie Jiedu" (dispersing accumulation and detoxification) is an important therapeutic principle in breast cancer's treatment after operation. The "Tandu Yujie" pathogenesis theory and "Sanjie Jiedu" therapeutic principle developed the theory about breast cancer in traditional Chinese medicine, and have some clinical application value.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of Ruyiping, a traditional Chinese compound herbal medicine composed of 5 Chinese herbs for removing toxic materials and dissipating nodules from Runing II, another traditional Chinese compound herbal medicine for treating breast cancer, in preventing recidivation and metastasis in breast cancer patients after operation. METHODS: Eighty patients with breast cancer after operation were randomly divided into Ruyiping group and Runing II group, and prescribed Ruyiping and Runing II on the basis of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and endocrine therapy respectively for two years. RESULTS: There were two patients with metastasis and three patients lost to follow-up in Ruyiping group and three and two in Runing II group. The recidivation and metastasis rates were 5.41% and 7.89% respectively. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The difference of disease-free survival time between the two groups was also not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: The effect of Ruyiping in preventing recidivation and metastasis is similar to that of Runing II. Ruyiping is the essential component of Runing II for preventing recidivation and metastasis. The result provides some clinical evidences for the theory that "Yudu Pangcuan" (vestigial poison invasion elsewhere) is the essential pathogenesis of breast cancer's recidivation and metastasis and the utilization of "Sanjie Jiedu" (dispersing accumulation and detoxification) is the therapeutic principle in preventing recidivation and metastasis after operation.

Objective To investigate the influence of difference ileocecal junction length on the efficacy of laparoscopic subtotal colectomy combined with antiperistaltic cecorectal anastomosis (LSCACRA) in treatment of slow transit constipation (STC). Methods Ninety- two STC patients undergoing LSCACRA were divided into 2 groups by random digits table method:10-15 cm group (10-15 cm ascending colon preserved above ileocecal junction, 46 cases) and 2-3 cm group (2-3 cm ascending colon preserved above ileocecal junction ,46 cases). All the patients were followed up for 24 months, and the Wexner incontinence score (WIS), ileocecal junction emptying time of barium enema, Wexner constipation score (WCS), abdominal pain intensity score (NRS), gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI), abdominal pain frequency score and abdominal bloating frequency score were compared between 2 groups. Results All the patients successfully completed LSCACRA, with no conversion to open surgery and death occurred. There were no statistical differences in amount of bleeding, operative time, hospitalization time, exhaust time, incidences of postoperative intestinal obstruction and pulmonary infection, defecation time, WIS and abdominal bloating frequency score between 2 groups (P>0.05). The WCS, GIQLI, NRS and abdominal pain frequency scores 6, 12 and 24 months after operation in 2-3 cm group were significantly better than those in 10 - 15 cm group, WCS: (1.7 ± 1.3) scores vs. (4.2 ± 2.3) scores, (1.7 ± 1.1) scores vs. (4.1 ± 1.9) scores, (1.2 ± 0.5) scores vs. (3.9 ± 2.5) scores;GIQLI:(116.8 ± 6.2) scores vs. (98.5 ± 14.7) scores, (122.9 ± 7.5) scores vs. (104.7 ± 16.5) scores, (124.3 ± 5.9) scores vs. (108.3 ± 15.1) scores; NRS: (1.3 ± 0.5) scores vs. (2.5 ± 1.7) scores, (0.9 ± 0.3) scores vs. (2.3 ± 1.4) scores, (0.8 ± 0.3) scores vs. (2.2 ± 1.5) scores;abdominal pain frequency score:(0.9 ± 0.3) scores vs. (1.6 ± 1.2) scores, (0.7 ± 0.3) scores vs. (1.4 ± 1.1) scores, (0.7 ± 0.2) scores vs. (1.2 ± 1.0) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The ileocecal junction emptying time of barium enema 24 months after operation in 2-3 cm group was significantly shorter than that in 10-15 cm group: (17.6 ± 8.4) h vs. (21.3 ± 10.8) h, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusions STC patients with LSCACRA is safe and effective. The shorter length of ascending colon preserved above ileocecal junction can improve the efficacy of LSCACRA in the treatment of STC and the prognosis of patients. The 2-3 cm length of ascending colon preserved above the ileocecal junction should be recommended.
