ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) combined with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) in elderly patients with choledocholithiasis.Methods From Jan 2015 to Dec 2016,in the control group 40 patients received conventional perioperative management and 40 patients in the ERAS group followed the ERAS protocol.The operative details and outcomes were compared in the two groups.Results No perioperative death occurred during the study period.There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in operative time and intraoperative blood loss (t =1.04,0.88,P ＞0.05).Patients in ERAS group showed significantl shorter time of gastrointestinal tract peristalsis,off-bed,postoperative infusion,food intake,and abdominal drainage tube removal,as well as reduced weight loss,length of hospital stay and total cost than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant difference of preoperative CRP and PCT,IL-6 in the 2 groups (t =1.18,0.44,1.49,P ＞ 0.05),However,the CRP and PCT,IL-6 levels in ERAS group were significantly lower than those in control group at postoperative days 1,4,7 (P ＜ 0.05).Furthermore,postoperative complications developed in 3 (7.5％),and 12 (30.0％) respectively (x2 =6.47,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Minimally invasive surgery combined with ERAS is safe and cost-effective approach for elderly patients of choledocholithiasis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of LC+LCBDE and EST+LC in treating the cho-leeystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis. Methods The clinical data of 256 patients treated in our hos-pital were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 256 patients, 132 were treated by LC+LCBDE and 124 by EST combined with LC. The clinical data of the two groups was compared in operation success rate, operation time and cost, complication rate and operative hospital stay. Results There was no statisti-cal difference in the operation success rate, complication rate, operative hospital stay between 2 groups. However, there were significant differences in the operation time and cost between the 2 gruops. Conclusion There are respective indications, advantages and disadvantages in the two groups. EST+LC is the better choice for patients with a CBD<1.0 cm in diameter, stones impacted in the distal CBD, or old age. Otherwise, the better way is LC+LCBDE for patients with a CBD>1. 0 cm in diameter and multiple choledocholithiasis, especially in young and middle-aged people.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the protective effect of pretreatment with wortmannin against pancreas and liver injuries indued by severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) in rats and investigate its mechanism.Methods Fifty-four SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group(C group),SAP group(P group) and SAP+wortmannin group(PW group)(n=18 per group). SAP model was induced by retrograde infusion of 50g/L sodium taurocholate into the biliopancreatic duct of rats,except C group in which sodium taurocholate was replaced by normal saline. Serum level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?)、 alanine aminotransferase(ALT)、aspartate aminotransferase(AST)、and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-?B)in liver were detected. Histopathology of liver and pancreas was studied.Results In P group, serum levels of TNF-?、ALT、AST and NF-?B in liver were significantly elevated(P
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) combined with bile duct exploration and stone removal(BDE) and LC with endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST) in treating cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis.Methods Among 256 cases of cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithlasis,132 patients were treated by LC+LCBDE,and 124 cases by EST combined with LC.The operation success rate,operation time and cost,complication rate,and length of hospital stay of the two groups were compared.Results There was no statistical difference in the operation success rate,complication rate,stone clearance rate,and average hospital stay between the two groups,but EST+LC group had significantly longer operation time and higher cost.Conclusions There are respective indications,advantages and disadvantages in the two groups.EST+LC is the better choice for patients with diameter of CBD1.0cm and with multiple choledocholithiasis,especially for middle-aged patients,the better way is LC+LCBDE.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of Atorvastatin on the level of serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) and nitric oxide(NO) in patients with acute cerebral infartion(ACI). Methods 60 patients with ACI were randomly divided into the Atorvastatin therapy group (n=30) and the conventional therapy group (n=30). At the basic of conventional therapy, the Atorvastatin therapy group was treated with Atorvastatin 20 mg/d. Both groups were treated for 14 consecutive days. The levels of serum hs-CRP and NO were measured and the scores of neurological deficit (NDS) were evaluated before and after treatment. Results The levels of serum hs-CRP in both two groups after 14 d treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment ( all P
