Objective To explore the nursing care for complications of children with complex renal calculus who receive minimally invnsive percutaneous nephrolithotomy lithotripsy treatment.Methods Children who received routine minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy hthotripsy treatment for complex renal calculus from February 2008 to April 29,2011 and 30 cases who received conventional open surgery from February 2005 to 2008 were divided into the observation group and the control group,respectively.Postoperative hospital stay,hospital costs and the incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results Hospital stay in observation group was(12.80 ± 2.60)d,and(18.25 ± 3.34)d in control group; there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(t =10.32,P < 0.05).Hospital costs in observation group was(13 924.9 ± 340.3)yuan,and(15 510.4 ± 509.3)yuan in control group,the difference was obvious(t =13.20,P < 0.05)between the two groups.the incidence of postoperative complications was 10.3% and 40.0% in observation group and in control group,respectively,there was significant difference(x2 =6.60,P < 0.05).Conclusions Minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy was better than traditional open surgery in terms of dealing with children with complex stone stones,close observation,careful and meticulous care and more records,more communication can help reduce the number of hospital stay,hospital costs and the incidence of postoperative infectious complications,etc.It is good for the rehabilitation of patients and improvement of the quality of care.
5.Unusual Features in an Adult Pancreatic Hemangioma: CT and MRI Demonstration.
Korean Journal of Radiology 2013;14(5):781-785
Hemangiomas in the pancreas are very rare and only a few cases in adulthood have been reported in the literature. We describe a case of pancreatic hemangiomas in an adult with unique imaging findings. A 23-year-old woman visited the hospital for an incidentally detected pancreatic mass. CT and MRI revealed a multilocular cyst with fluid-fluid levels and no obvious enhancement. The patient underwent surgery and the mass was confirmed as a pancreatic hemangioma. The radiological features and differential diagnosis of this rare lesion are discussed.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effects of Yuyin Ruangan Decoction(YRD, traditional Chinese medicine) on experimental hepatic injury in mice.
METHODSThe mice were randomly divided into control group, model group and YRD low, middle and high dose group(n = 11). By ip injection of D-GalN, CCk or thioacetamide (TAA), three models of hepatic injury mice were established to investigate the effects of YRD through detecting the indexes of liver function in serum and, the content of antioxidant system in the hepatic tissue.
RESULTSYRD could decrease the content of alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in serum and that of malonaldehyde (MDA) in the hepatic tissue, upregulate the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in the hepatic tissue. Furthermore, the above effects were dosedependent in a certain degree. CoNCLUSION: YRD has some protection effects on the model of experimental hepatic injury in mouse.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of electroacupuncture on exercise-induced immunosuppression in rats and its mechanism.
METHODSSports immunosuppressive model was established successfully by the rats were conducted high intensity swimming training 150 min/day, 6 days/wk for 8 weeks in this study. Forty-three SD rats were randomly divided into a control group (group A, n = 10), a high intensity swimming training group (group B, n = 17), and a high intensity plus electroacupuncture group (group C, n = 16). Group A did not receive any intervention. Group B was conducted 150 min/day, 6 days/wk swimming training for 8 weeks. Group C was treated with electroacupuncture at "Baihui" (GV 20), "Guanyuan" (CV 4) and "Zusanli" (ST 36) after every exercise-time from the second week, once each day for 7 weeks. The changes of the rats' weight, gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN), interleukin-2 (IL-2), solubility IL-2 receptor (SIL-2R) and nature killer cell (NKC) were detected.
RESULTS(1) Compared with group A, gamma-IFN and IL-2 in group B were significantly decreased (P < 0.01, P < 0.05), and NKC in group C was significantly increased (P < 0.01). Meanwhile, gamma-IFN and NKC in group C were both significantly higher than that in group B (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). (2) Compared with group A, the weight of the rats in group B and group C were significantly decreased (both P < 0.01), but SIL-2R in group B was significantly increased (P < 0.05). The weight of the rats in group C was significantly higher than that in group B (P < 0.05) and SIL-2R in group C was significantly lower than that in group B (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONLasting gravis exercise stress does decrease the immune function in rats and is even inhibited significantly, but electroacupuncture can up-regulate the exercise-induced immunosuppression.

Objective: To determine protein binding characteri stic and signal transmission pathway of melatonin(Mel) receptor(MR) in human e mbryonic peripheral organ tissues. Methods: MR was measured by radio ligand-binding assay and the effect of GTPγS on melatonin specific bindi ng was studied. Results: Mel specific binding sites were det ermined in 16 kinds of human embryonic tissue and this binding could be inhibit ed by GTPγS, supporting the theory that MR is coupled to inhibitory G-proteins system. Conclusion: MR is measured in human embryo tissue, the se results provide experimental data for elucidating the mechanism of the effect of Mel.
