Chinese Journal of General Surgery 1993;0(03):-
Objective To investigate the causes of intra-abdominal hernia and improve the level of early (diagnosis) and therapy of intra-abdominal hernia. Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 68 cases of intra-abdominal hernia was made. Results The postoperative confirmed diagnosis was para-occal hernia in 1 patient;herniation of efferent jejunal loop through the space between the afferent jejunal loop and the mesocolon after Billroth II gastrectomy in 6 patients,one of which had bowel necrosis,all of the 6 patients were cured after reduction of the hernia or enterectomy after and enteroanastomsis;internal henia though (ruptured) pelvic (peritoneum) after Miles operation in 4 patients;internal hernia though the space between the (descending) colon and the lateral abdominal wall after colostomy of descending colon in 6 patients;internal (hernia) caused by (adhesion) of omentum to the intestinal wall of sigmoidostomy in 1 patient;internal hernia through hiatuses caused by postoperative or post-peritonitis adhesions to the peritoneum,ovaries,urinary (bladder),uterus,(intestinal) wall or between loops of intestine in 50 patients(73.5%),including 3 cases of bowel (necrosis).All of those patients were cured after reduction of the hernias,repair of the hiatuses,release of (adhesions) or enterectomy and enteroanastomosis. Conclusions Preoperative diagnosis of internal abdominal hernia is difficult.The possibility of internal abdominal hernia should be cansidered in patients with a history of operation,and who complain of frequent abdominal pain or bowel obstruction.Early diagnosis and prompt (operation) is necessary to prevent the occurrence of bowel strangulation and bowel necrosis.

China Pharmacy 2007;0(35):-
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the characteristics and regularities of adverse drug reactions (ADR) in our hospital. METHODS:ADR reports of 618 cases collected via ADR network system and submitted to state ADR database from 2005 to 2006 were analyzed statistically in respect of patients' age and sex,rating of correlated factors and outcome,clinical manifestations,routes of administration,and the involved drugs etc. RESULTS:Anti-infective drugs dominated the first place on the list of ADR incidence rate,followed by antineoplastic agent and Chinese patent medicines. The main symptoms of ADR were drug eruption,allergic,athma,followed by gastrointestinal reaction. There were fewer incidences of serious ADR such as bone marrow depression,hypoleukemia and shock. CONCLUSION:The ADR monitoring in Fuzhou General Hospital is lack and should be strengthened,and knowledge of ADR must be publicized for guiding the rational,safe and effective drug use in clinic.
4.Controversial problems in management of cirrhotic ascites
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2014;30(7):601-603
Ascites is an important indicator of poor prognosis of liver cirrhosis.Although several guidelines and consensus statements on the management of ascites have been published in the past years,there are still a lot of controversial problems in this regard.The current contro-versial problems and difficulties in the management of ascites,such as the timing of sodium supplementation or sodium restriction,the selec-tion of diuretics,the application value of aquaretics,the strategy of albumin administration after large-volume paracentesis,and the indica-tions and efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt,are reviewed.It is pointed out that further studies on these problems with evidence-based medicine means will enhance the diagnosis and treatment of cirrhotic ascites and improve patients'prognosis.

AIM To investigate the inhibitory effects on the growth of SMMC-7721 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line and its mechanism by theasinesin. METHODS MTT assay,colony formation test, 3H-TdR, 3H-Leu incorporation test, determination of the intracellular cAMP and cGMP level, in situ hybridization were used. RESULTS Theasinesin at 50 mg*L-1 could significantly inhibit the growth and colony formation of SMMC-7721 cells. Theasinesin could strongly inhibit DNA and protein synthesis and increase intracellular cAMP levels. C-myc gene expression was significantly decreased and p53 gene increased strongly in a dose-dependent manner.CONCLUSION Theasinesin demonstrates significant inhibitory effects on the growth of SMMC-7721 cells. Its mechanisms may involve the inhibition of DNA and protein synthesis ,the elevation of intracellular cAMP levels, inhibition of c-myc gene expression and enhancement of p53 gene expression.
