Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of the domestic SA-1000 single-port single-arm robot-assisted laparoscopic system in total hysterectomy.Methods Data from 16 patients who underwent total hysterectomy using the SA-1000 system at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,The Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University,between Mar.2023 and Jan.2024 were retrospectively collected.Surgical parameters were analyzed.Postoperative pain was assessed using the visual analogue scale(VAS)at 24 h after surgery and before discharge.Incision cosmesis was evaluated 3-5 weeks postoperatively using the body image questionnaire(BIQ,score range 3-24).Results All 16 procedures were successfully completed using the SA-1000 system without conversion to open surgery,achieving a 100.0%procedural success rate.The mean whole surgery time was(234.40±56.24)min.The median robotic arm setup time was 8.0(4.0,13.5)min,and the median console operating time was 128.0(100.0,151.0)min.The median intraoperative blood loss was 100.0(100.0,200.0)mL.No perioperative complications,such as hemorrhage,infection,injury to adjacent organs(ureters,bladder,bowel),poor wound healing,or incisional hernia,were observed.The mean wound pain score at 24 h postoperatively was 3.81±1.64,decreasing to a median of 3.0(2.0,4.0)before discharge.The BIQ score assessed at 3-5 weeks postoperatively was 21.88±1.15.Conclusion The application of the domestic SA-1000 single-port single-arm robot-assisted laparoscopic system for total hysterectomy is safe and feasible,demonstrating favorable surgical outcomes.It holds promise for broader implementation and promotion in domestic medical centers.

Objective To explore the structure changes of white matter in the first-episode schizo-phrenic patients with never-medicated(FESZ)and the relationship between facial emotion perception and white matter(WM)integrity.Methods Sixty-three schizophrenic patients and thirty health control subjects underwent diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)scans.Voxel-based analysis was used to compared fractional ani-sotropy(FA)map between the two groups.Correlations were analyzed with pearson relative analysis between impaired facial emotion perception tested by facial emotion categorization(FEC)and severity of symptoms measured by the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS).Results (1)Compared with controls, FESZ patients showed overall decreased FA in WM of the body of left ventral frontal lobe((MNI(x,y,z):-18,26,-4;t=4.43)),right supramarginal gyrus((MNI(x,y,z):32,-50,26;t=4.27)),left middle oc-cipital gyral((MNI(x,y,z):-26,-60,0;t=4.89)),right middle occipital gyral((MNI(x,y,z):28,-70, 14;t=4.18)),left fusiform gyrus((MNI(x,y,z):-40,-50,0;t=3.92)),left cerebellum anterior lobe ((MNI(x,y,z):-32,-56,-28;t=4.57)),right parahippocampa gyrus1((MNI(x,y,z):32,-10,-14;t=4.16)),right parahippocampa gyrus2((MNI(x,y,z):16,-6,-14;t=4.56)),left anterior cingulate ((MNI(x,y,z):-2,4,-6;t=4.41)),left extra-nuclear((MNI(x,y,z):-2,-10,-6;t=4.44)),right thalamus((MNI(x,y,z):10,-10,2;t=4.20)),left thalamus((MNI(x,y,z):-22,-28,12;t=4.01)), and right caudate((MNI(x,y,z):14,12,8;t=4.87)).(2)Compared with controls,the patients with schizo-phrenia showed a higher shift point and a steeper slope than control subjects in FEC.Correlational analysis re-vealed that the negative correlations were found between the slope and negative factor(r=-0.298,P=0.036),between positive factor and the FA value in WM of the right middle occipital gyral(r=-0.322,P=0.023)and the left middle occipital gyral(r=-0.288,P=0.043),and between the FA value in the left cere-bellum anterior lobe and shift point(r=-0.393,P=0.005),but the positive correlation was found between disorganized/concrete factor and the FA value in the right parahippocampal gyrus(r=0.429,P=0.002).Con-clusions There are extensive microstructural abnormalities in WM of patients with FESZ.Disrupted WM in-tegrity in these regions may constitute a potential neural pathological basis for the facial emotion perception impairments in schizophrenia.

Objective To report the modified liver mobilization technique in management of renal cell carcinoma with intrahepatic inferior vena cava thrombus. Methods 10 cases (7 men and 3 women at the average age of 49 years) of renal cell carcinoma with intrahepatic inferior vena cavs thrombus were reviewed.The operations were carried by using father clamp to control inferior vena cava,combined with hepatic portal blocking. Results There was no postoperative complication.The average blood loss was 800 ml.The mean hospital stay was 13 days.The time of follow-up ranged from 1 to 48 months. Conclusions The technique of using father clamp to control suprahepatic inferior vena cava combined with hepatic portal blocking is feasible for the treatment of the renal cell carcinoma with intrahepatic inferior vena cava thromhosis.

OBJECTIVEWuji pill is a prescription of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and was composed of Rhizoma Coptidis, Fructus Evodiae Rutaecarpae and Radix Paeoniae Alba. The aim of this research is to investigate the effects of Wuji pill compound with different compatibility on the levels of enzymic activity of cytochrome P450 CYP3A1/3A2 in rat liver microsomes in vitro, and to confirm the compatibility mechanism of Wuji pill from the point of relationships between compound prescription of TCM and metabolism.

METHODWith testosterone being a probe, the levels of enzymic activity of CYP3A1/3A2 were detected by HPLC, which were suppressed by Wuji pill with different compatibility in vitro.

RESULTThe IC50 of Rhizoma Coptidis, Fructus Evodiae Rutaecarpae, Radix Paeoniae Alba and 1"-9" of different level Wuji pill is: 38.96, 871.96, 15 519.17, 43.17, 60. 47, 276.12, 133.40, 118.08, 88. 47, 64. 36, 35. 13 and 39. 91 mg x L -', respectively. Rhizoma Coptidis and 1-9" of Wuji pill can suppress the enzymic activity of CYP3A1/3A2 significantly, and the capability of Rhizoma Coptidis in Wuji pill of action on CYP3A1/3A2 can be modified by different composition of Fructus Evodiae Rutaecarpae and Radix Paeoniae in Wuji pill, and there are statistical differences among the IC50 of 1#-9# of Wuji pill. While the ratio of Rhizoma Coptidis raises up in Wuji pill, Wuji pill may suppress the enzymic activity of CYP1A2 largely.

CONCLUSIONThe reason why Wuji pill with different compatibility has different pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics characteristics is likely to lie in the difference of the capability of Wuji pill with different compatibility on CYP3A1/3A2. [Key words] Wuji pill; CYP3A1/3A2; testosterone; HPLC; different compatibility prescription of traditional Chinese medi-cine

Objective To present the experience of laparoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy and evaluate its safety and efficacy. Methods A total of 91 patients diagnosed with localized prostate carcinoma were admitted from February 2003 to June 2008. The level of serum PSA ranged from 7. 5 - 47. 0 ng/ml(mean 14. 0 ng/ml). The volume of the prostate ranged from 35 - 75 ml(mean 52 ml). Biopsy was performed before the operation and the pathological results revealed prostate carcinoma with Gleason score no more than 8. CT, MR and ECT revealed there was no lymph node or seminal vesicle involvement and there was no bone metastasis. The procedures were performed with an-tegrade techniques and pelvic lymphadenectomies were performed in 32 cases and nerve-sparings were performed in 11 cases. Results The operation duration ranged from 105 - 270 min (mean 173 min). Intraoperative blood loss was 110 - 1200 ml(mean 315 ml). Incontinence occurred in 19 cases in early stage and 18 cases recovered within 3 months. Positive surgical margin occurred in 11 cases. There was no complication of urethra stricture during 3 - 30 months' follow-up. No lymph node was involved in 32 cases with pelvic lymphadectomy. Five of the 11 cases received nerve-sparing prostatectomy had normal erectile function during the follow-up. Conclusions Laparoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy is a safe, effective and efficient surgical procedure with the minimal invasion, less morbidity and rapid recovery. Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is emerging as an alternative to open radical prostatectomy.
