Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Mirabegron combined with transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) in the treatment of drug-refractory overactive bladder (OAB), so as to alleviate patients'symptoms, improve their quality of life with optimized treatment plan, and provide reference for clinical practice. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 56 patients with drug-refractory OAB treated at the Department of Urology of Gansu Provincial Hospital during Jan.2023 and Dec.2024. Based on the treatment methods, the patients were divided into two groups:the TTNS group and the combined treatment group, with 28 patients in either group. The daytime urination frequency, nocturia frequency, urgency episodes, urinary incontinence, functional bladder capacity (FBC), OAB symptom scores (OABSS), and incontinence quality of life questionnaire (I-QoL) scores were collected before and after treatment. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated using the Nimodipine method. Results After 12 weeks of treatment, the 24-hour urination indicators in both groups including daytime urination frequency, nocturia frequency, urgency episodes and FBC, as well as OABSS and I-QoL scores, showed a significant improvement compared to baseline (P<0.001). The combined treatment group exhibited fewer urgency episodes than the TTNS group [ (1.07±0.66) times/24 h vs. (1.64±0.62) times/24 h, P<0.05]. However, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in other urinary parameters (P>0.05). The total effective rate in the combined treatment group was 96.43%, which was significantly higher than that in the TTNS group (82.14%, P<0.05). During treatment, one patient (3.57%) in the TTNS group experienced mild skin allergy, which recovered following symptomatic management. Conclusion The combination of TTNS and Mirabegron in drug-refractory OAB not only alleviates clinical symptoms and improves quality of life, but also shows superior efficacy in reducing urgency episodes. This approach is a safe and effective treatment option.

Objective To study the practical clinical value of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) combined with other laparoscopic surgery. Methods 206 patients treated by LC combined with other laparoscopic surgery were analysed retrospectively. Results Among the 206 cases of LC combined with other laparoscopic surgery, LC was combined with choledochal exploration in 64 patients, with appendectomy in 29 patients, with fenestration of hepatic cyst in 38 patients, with other hepatic operations in 13 patients, with unroofing of kidney cyst in 15 patients, with release of abdominal adhesions in 31 patients, and with other operative procedures in 16 patients. Laparoscopic operations were successful in 204 patients, and 2 patients were converted to laparotomy. Postoperative bile fistula occurred in 2 patients; 1 healed with conservative therapy, and 1 healed after reoperation. Conclusions Laparoscopic cholecystectomy combined with other laparoscopic surgery can adequately present the advantages of microsurgery by safe, effective and economical management of various abdominal diseases.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in patients with SARS.Methods The level of hs-CRP and CRP in patients with SARS,general bacterial pneumonia and the control are quantitatively detceted by automatically partielc enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay.Results The quantification level of -hs-CRP and CRP are 0 69?0 62mg/L and 4 4?0 9 mg/L in healthy control respectively,10 79?1 36 mg/L and 98 0?28 9 mg/L in bacterial pneumonia,3 16?3 72 mg/L and 11 0?9 6 mg/L in SARS.Conclusion The serum level of hs-CRP and CRP rese in patients with both SARS and bacterial pneumonia,especially in the latter,which is 2 4 and 7 9 times more than the former.This suggests that hs-CRP and CRP may be goog indicators to differentiate SARS with general bacterial pneumonia.

Objective:To introduce a method combining thread-burying in eyebrow and construction of double eyelid for treatment of upper eyelid cutis laxa in the middle-aged and young.Methods: We used 3-0 non-invasive thread for intradermal suture and fixed the eyebrow to the superciliary periost,then double eyelid construction was performed to remove the superfluous skin of upper eyelid in 23 patients with upper eyelid cutis laxa.Results: All the 23 cases obtained satisfactory clinical outcomes, with the upper eyelid cutis laxa obviously improved.Conclusion: Thread-burying in eyebrow combined with double eyelid construction is a simple and effective strategy for treatment of middle-aged and young patients with upper eyelid cutis laxa.
