Objective To investigate the efficacy of small-axillary-incision esophagectomy combined with mechanical esophagogastric anastomosis for esophageal carcinoma.Methods From April 2005 to April 2007,56 patients with esophageal cancer underwent small-axillary-incision esophagectomy combined with mechanical esophagogastric anastomosis in our hospital.After thoracotomy was performed via a small axillary incision,the stomach and esophagus were separated.Circular stapler was used for esophagogastric anastomosis after esophagectomy.The anastomotic segment was then enveloped and placed at the esophageal bed.Results The average length of the axillary incision was(13.2?1.6)cm(10-15 cm).No anastomotic leak and hemorrhage,injury to the laryngeal nerve,or chylothorax occurred in this series.53 of the patients were followed up for 4-16 months(mean,7.8 months),during which 1(1.9%)patient developed slight anastomotic stenosis,and 4(7.5%)had gastroesophageal reflux.Conclusions Small axillary incision causes less trauma to the patients leading to a quick recovery.By using mechanical cervical anastomosis,man-mad injuries to the anastomotic segment are avoided,resulting in a low rate of postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the correlation of the middle cerebral artery stenosis (MCAS) and the mild cognitive function impairment (MCI),and the clinical efficacy of statins in patients with MCI. Methods Six hundred and thirty-six patientse,who received transcranial color doppler ultrasound (TCD)assay, were enrolled in our hospital hospitalization or outpatients. The simple mental state examination (MMSE) and clinical dementia rating scale (CDR) were used as cognitive function assessment indexes. Forty-four cases of MCI with MCAS and 58 cases of MCI with NMCAS were used as the treatment group , who received the atorvastatin 20 mg every day , 56 cases of MCI with NMCAS were used as the control group , who only received the routine and basic diseases treatment. One yearlater,we determined the changes of MMSE and CDRagain. Results We detected 124 patients with MCAS, 512 patients with NMCAS, and 44 cases of MCAS patients with MCI, the prevalence was 35.5%,114 cases of NMCAS in patients with MCI, with the prevalence of 22.3%, the prevalence between the two groups was statistically different. One year later, the patients in the treatment group, MMSE score was improved, the score of MCI of the MCAS group improved more significantly. Conclusion The middle cerebral artery stenosis correlated with the occurrence of MCI. Atorvastatin could improve cognitive function in patients with MCI, especially for MCI which was caused by middle cerebral artery stenosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of magnesium sulfate on NF-κB p65,inflammatory cyto-kines in brain and serum of preeclampsia model rats by magnesium sulfate. Methods The healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups,normal pregnancy group(n = 10),magnesium sulfate control group(n = 10), preeclampsia(PE)model group(n = 10)and magnesium sulfate intervention group(n = 10). Blood pressure, urinary protein,blood urea nitrogen and alanine aminotransferase levels were detected in rats in each group. RT-qP-CR and ELISA were used to detect the expression of IL-1β,TNF-αand IL-6 in the brain and serum. Western blot assay was used to detect the expression of the NF-κB p65 in brain. Results The level of proteinuria,blood urea nitrogen and blood pressure in PE model rats were significantly higher than those in the normal pregnancy group and those in the magnesium sulfate intervention group at 20 days of gestation(P<0.05). Results of RT-qPCR and ELISA assay showed that IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 level in magnesium sulfate intervention group were sig-nificantly lower than those in PE model group(P<0.05),but still higher than those in the normal pregnancy group (P < 0.05). Western blot result showed that NF-κB p65 in the magnesium sulfate intervention group was lower than that in the PE group(P<0.05),but still higher than that in the normal pregnancy group(P<0.05). Con-clusion The prevention and treatment preeclampsia mechanism of magnesium sulfate may inhibit inflammatory cyto-kines through NF-κB p65 pathway in the preeclampsia model rats.

Professor YU Ren-cun believes that the responsibility of cough and asthma of lung cancer patients not only lies in the lungs, but also relates with spleen, kidney, heart and liver. Treatment should focus on the whole body and overall conditioning. Syndrome can be divided into 4 types: qi deficiency with phlegm resistance, yin deficiency with toxic heat, qi stagnation with blood stasis, and lung and kidney deficiency. Clinical treatment should pay attention to the combination of disease and syndrome, which can achieve satisfactory efficacy.

Objective To explore the significance of day surgery mode on cataract patients for achieving win-win among patient, hospital and medical insurance.Methods 120 cataract patients (selected from December 2015 to June 2016, in the Ophthalmic Center of Leshan People′s hospital) were included in this retrospective study and day surgery group (n=60) was observation group and hospitalization surgery group was control one (n=60).All cases underwent cataract phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation.Treatment process, average day on the waiting list, average preoperative stay, average length of stay, medical cost and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results Days on the waiting list in day surgery group (1.2 d) reduced 8 days than in hospitalization surgery group (9.2 d).Preoperative stay in day surgery group reduced 1.5 days than in hospitalization surgery group.Length of stay ware reduced by 3 days as compared to the control group.The average medical cost in day surgery group was much less than the control group and the patient satisfaction was much higher.Conclusion The high efficiency of day surgery mode can shorten the length of hospital stay, lessen the cost of medical expense, realize the security management of medical service, so as to provide more convenience, more safety, better quality and cheaper medical service for patients.It achieves social and economic benefits and finally achieves win-win among patient, hospital and medical insurance.

Objective To define the indications and evaluate the results of various surgical treatment options in patients with nonparasitic hepatic cysts. Methods The clinical data of 284 patients with nonparasitic hepatic cysts treated in our hospital from January 1995 to December 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Percutaneous aspiration and sclerotherapy were performed in 161 cases and complications occurred in 9 (5.59%), recurrence in 53 (32.92%) and the mortality was 0%.Open surgery was conducted in 71 cases and the complications occurred in 16 (22.54%), recurrence in 8 cases (11.27%) and the mortality was 2.82%. Laparoscopic surgery was employed in 52 cases and complications occurred in 7 ( 13.46%), recurrence in 6 (11.54%) and the mortality was 1.92%.Conclusion There is currently no general agreement in the literature concerning when nonparasitic hepatic cysts should be treated. Laparoscopic surgery was more favorable than other therapeutic options.However, we should choose individually suitable methods according to different clinical symptom of patients.

Objective　To evaluate therapeutic effect and opportunity of laser in situ keratomileusis(LASIK) for treatment of hypermetropia.Methods　Three hundred and ninety hypermetropia eyes were treated with LASIK using solid excimer laser instrument(made in Novatec Corporation, USA),and were reexamined at 1,3,6 and 12 months after LASIK.Results　Therapeutic effect of LASIK was more remarkable, stable and reliable, that of other methods in treating +2.00～+10.00D hypermetropia and astigmatism, and the rate and degree of refraction regression were small. The diopter has been stable in 6～12　months after LASIK. Diopter of 87 percentage of all eyes≤+2.00D, and 61 percentage≤+1.00D. LASIK had shorter recovery time, more gently operation reaction, more remarkable droping of diopter than other methods. Elevation of vision was remarkable after LASIK. Elevation of vision of amblyopia children who were treated with LASIK was quicker and more remarkable after treatment of amblyopia than that of other amblyopia children who were not treated with LASIK.Conclusion　At present, LASIK is the best therapeutic method to treat hypermetropia.

Objective To investigate the application and survival mechanism of a long and narrow pedicle flap which was used to repair the tissue defects after removal of tumor in aged patients.Methods The long and narrow pedicle flap was designed with its pedicle located beside wound surface along the pathway of well-known or perforating branch blood vessel to repair the defect caused by removing the tumor in aged patients.The size of the flaps ranged from 3 cm × 4 cm to 10 cm × 12 cm.The length and width of the pedicle ranged 2 - 8 cm and 1.0 - 1.5 cm.Results This flap was used in 17 cases.The flap was survived well in 14 patients,and healed later in other 3 patients because of wrong bandaging in earlier period.Conclusions The capability of bearing ischemia and hypoxia of the flap tissue is stronger after transfer owing to low metabolic rate in the skin tissue in aged patients.The flap is easily survived by repairing the tissue defects after removal of tumors in aged patients with the long and narrow pedicle flap.The pedicle of flap is narrow and long,and the transposition of the narrow pedicle flap is easy.The postoperative appearance is satisfactory.It is an ideal choice for repairing the defect caused by removal of tumor in aged patients.

Objective To express the anti-IL-1βscfv and soluble TNF receptor 1 (sTNFR1),and analyze their bio-activities.Methods sTNFR1 was obtained by RT-PCR from the total RNA of HeLa cells,and fused with IL-1βscfv by the hinge fragment of IgG molecule.The fusion gene IL-1scfv:TNFR1 was cloned into the expression vector pET27b(+).The fusion protein was expressed and purified from inclusion bodies.Results The ELISA analysis showed that the fusion protein could bind hIL-1β and hTNF-α respectively in a dose-dependent manner,indicating that scfv and sTNFR in the fusion protein can form the correct spatial configuration.The dolt-blot analysis showed that the fusion protein could concurrently bind with hIL-1β and hTNF-α,indicating that the combination of the two parts of the fusion protein does not influence each other for binding to their target molecules.The bioactivity assay showed that the fusion protein could inhibit both the cytotoxicity of hTNF-α on L929 cells and hIL-1β-induced proliferation of L929 cells,indicating that the fusion protein has the ability to neutralize hTNF-α and hIL-1β.Conclusion A bispecific fusion protein IL-1scfv:TNFR1 was successfully constructed.The fusion protein has the ability to inhibit the biological activity of hTNF-α and hIL-1β,and provides a drug candidate for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
