[Summary] The controversy remains on whether the Oddi sphincter function should be preserved or deprived in the treatment of hepatolithiasis .The surgical approaches achieving both hepatobiliary lesions clearance and Oddi sphincter preservation have been widely accepted .The biliary-enterostomy is suspected to increase the risk of reflux cholangitis and cholangiocarcinoma due to iatrogenic Oddi sphincter deprivation.Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) as a minimally invasive method still needs further research to determine its role in hepatolithiasis management .

Objective To investigate the intracellular signal transduction pathway of insulin promoting stem cell factor (SCF) expression in colonic smooth muscle cells (SMCs).Methods Colonic SMCs from SD rats were isolated and cultured, which were identified by α-actin immunofluorescence cytochemistry staining.SMCs were divided into 3 groups for experiment. ①Insulin concentration gradient group:Adding different insulin concentrations (0,2.5,5,20,40 and 80 mg/L) into SMCs culture and cultured for 16 hours; ② Insulin time point group:SMCs were cultured with insulin (40 mg/L) for different time durations (0,8,16,24 hours); ③ Signal pathway blocking group:SMCs were pretreated with LY-294002 or PD-98059,and then induced with insulin (40 mg/L) for 16 h.The proliferation of SMCs was examined by MTT method.The change of SCF expression was determined by Western blot and RT-PCR.Results ① Insulin at concentration of 5 mg/L remarkably promoted SMCs proliferation,and there was no significant difference in its effect with insulin concentrations at 20,40,80 mg/L (all P＜0.05).② Compared with no insulin adding group,low and medium dose of insulin (2.5,5,20 mg/L) already had a role in promoting SCF mRNA and SCF protein expression (all P ＜ 0.05). It reached maxium effect when insulin concentration was at 40 mg/L(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference between insulin concentration at 40 mg/L and 80 mg/L (P＞0.05).③ Compared with time 0 hour,the expression of SCF increased after insulin worked on SMC (40 mg/L) for 8 hours (P＜0.05),and reached the peak after 16 hours (P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference between 24 hours and 16 hours (P＞0.05).④ Compared with blank control group and solvent control group,both insulin-induced SCF expression reduced after pretreated with LY-294002 or PD-98059 (all P＜0.05).Conclusions Insulin can promote SMCs proliferation,and in certain range the induction of SCF synthesis in colon SMCs is in dose and time dependent manners.The effect may be related to PI3K and MAPK signal pathway.

Objective To probe the changes of RAGEmRNA expression in renal tissue of.streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Methods Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used in control rats and diabetic rats for 12 weeks. Results After 4 weeks of diabetes inducement, RACEmRNA level showed a continuous increase both in diabetic renal cortex and medulla. However, this enhancement could not be observed in 2 weeks of diabetes. In addition, after 8 weeks diabetic rats had significantly higher glycated Hb(GHb). Conclusion Gene expression of RAGE in renal tissue of diabetic rats is altered and the excessive gene expression of RAGE may enhance the AGEs-RAGE interactions which would contribute to the development of diabetic nephropathy. Furthermore, this change occurs as a result of hyperglycemia-induced AGEs formation.

Objective To study the multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) perfusion imaging in evaluating the changes of blood supply of hepatocellular carcinoma( HCC ) before and after transcatheter hepatic arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods Before and after TACE, MSCT perfusion was performed in 17 patients with HCC. The perfusion indexes such as hepatic blood flow (HBF), hepatic blood volume(HBV),mean transit time (MTT),hepatic arterial fracture (HAF),permeability surface (PS), hepatic artery perfusion (HAP), portal venous perfusion (PVP) were calculated. The hemodynamic changes of HCC after TACE were evaluated according to perfusion parameters. Results After TACE, HBF,HBV and HAP found in MTT and PS before and after TACE (P > 0.05). Conclusion The parameters of MSCT perfusion imaging( HBF, HBV and HAP) can effectively evaluate the hemodynamic changes of HCC after TACE, and has important value in chnical application.

OBJECTIVE:To offer the literature basis for clinical safe drug use by literature research about ADR induced by Yishen juanbi pill. METHODS:Using“Yishen juanbi pill”as searching word,related literatures about ADR induced by Yishen juanbi pill were collected from CNKI,and then the occurrence of ADR was summarized and analyzed. RESULTS:A total of 15 literatures were included,involving 58 patients. Primary disease were mainly rheumatoid arthritis (28 cases,48.28%);organs/systems involved in ADR were digestive system (77 cases, 76.24%). Main clinical manifestations were epigastric discomfort, pernicious vomiting,diarrhea,etc. No obvious ADR was found. ADR-inducing dose was mainly 8 g,tid(47 cases,92.16%);ADR-inducing drug combination were two-drug combination (33 cases,56.90%). Fifty-eighe cases of ADR were recovered after treatment,and main treatment was drug withdrawal or symptomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Although Yishen juanbi pill may induce ADR,those ADR can disappear spontaneously after drug withdrawal or the symptoms are recovered after symptomatic treatment. Yishen juanbi pill is a relatively safe Chinese patent medicine of anti-inflammatory,but ADR monitoring should be strengthened during application.

Objective To investigate the polyploid induction and identification of Nerviliae fordii for harvesting the polyploid plants. Methods The materials and methods for polyploid induction of Nerviliae fordii were screened separately by comparing the induction rates of rhizomes and bulbs under natural conditions and tissue culture environment, and by comparing soaking method with agar method. The effects of colchicine concentration ( 200, 300, 400, 300 mg/L), colchicine action time ( 7, 14, 21, 28 d), DMSO concentration ( 0, 10, 20, 40 mL/L) and KT concentration ( 0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 mg/L) on induction rate were observed by orthogonal design method. The polyploid induction in the treated plants was identified by morphology, cytology and chromosome methods. Results After the tissue culture rhizomes were treated with 300 mg/L colchicine, 10 mL/L DMSO, and 2.0 mg/L KT by agar method for 28 days, the polyploid induction rate arrived to 50%, showing better induction effect. The morphology of polyploid plants was characterized by giantism, and the leaf length, leaf width and plant height were respectively 152.17%, 158.67%and 60.90%of those of the diploid plants. The length, width and density of stoma of leaf epidermal cell as well as the number of chloroplast in the treated plants were 138.46%, 153.00%, 59.09% and 109.09% of those of the untreated plants. The results of chromosome identification showed that the amount of the tetraploid ( about 40) was 2 times of the diploid chromosome ( about 20) in the treated plants, proving that the achieved Nerviliae fordii was a tetraploid plant. Conclusion Polyploid plants of Nerviliae Fordii have been successfully obtained, which will supply evidence for improving species, richening seed-breeding resources, and selecting of improved seeds of Nerviliae fordii.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of Tianwang Buxin Decoction for delirium after hip joint replacement in senile femoral neck fracture patients. Methods A total of 57 senile patients with femoral neck fracture induced by falling were enrolled from the department of arthropathy of Zhongshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine admitted from September of 2009 to February of 2014. The patents were aged over 65 years, and had delirium after hip joint replacement. Random number method was used to divide the patients into Chinese medicine group ( 29 cases) and western medicine group ( 28 cases) , which were given oral use of Tianwang Buxin Decoction and Olanzapine separetely. Before and after treatment, we observed the scores of Delirium Rating Scale (DRS), time for delirium disappearing, and incidence of indifferent mind and somnolence.Results (1) After treatment, DRS scores were obviously decreased in both groups (P<0.01 compared with those before treatment), but the difference was insignificant between the two groups (P>0.05). (2) The difference of time for delirium disappearing was insignificant between the two groups after treatment ( P>0.05). ( 3) After treatment, 7 cases of the control group had indifferent mind or somnolence, accounting for 25%. No case of the treatment group had indifferent mind or somnolence. The difference between the two groups was significant ( P<0.01). Conclusion Oral use of Tianwang Buxin Decoction has the same effect as Olanzapine for the treatment of delirium after hip joint replacement in falling-induced senile femoral neck fracture patients, and has the advantages of having no adverse reaction of indifferent mind or somnolence, and can realize comprehensive treatment by modification of the recipe according to the symptoms.

Objective To explore the surgical treatments through anterior and posterior approaches for anterior and posterior compression of cervical spinal cord. Methods The clinical data of 25 cases of anterior and posterior compression of cervical spinal cord from June 1999 to November 2003 were summarized retrospectively. There were 18 males and seven females with age range of 28-56 years (average 36.4 years). Of all,18 cases were with tricolumnae fractures of cervical spine caused by traffic injury,five with cervical herniation and two with malignant macrophage tumor in vertebral body and annex and vertebral lamina. Results All 25 cases underwent internal fixation decompression with I-stage combination operation of anterior and posterior approaches. Of 18 cases with tricolumnae fractures,one died and 17 recovered in various degrees. In five cases with cervical herniation,the positive sign disappeared basically. Two cases of malignant giant-cell tumor appeared metastatic carcinoma in the lungs 10 months after operation. Conclusions The I-stage combination operation of anterior and posterior approaches is an ideal way for the patients suffering from anteropsterospinal compression in cervical spinal cord. It can not only decompress completely the cervical spinal cord,stabilize the wounded cervical vertebra,but also facilitate nursing and function training and be beneficial to the recovery of spinal cord function.
