ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule on the expressions of the main roles, Rock1 and Rock2, in RhoA/Rock signal transduction pathway in rats with myocardial infarction (MI);To explore the possible mechanism of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule to improve ventricular remodeling in myocardial fibrosis. Methods The MI model was induced by ligation of the left coronary artery. Rats with MI were randomly divided into the model group, Fuzheng Huayu group and Fasudil hydrochloride group. A sham-operation group threading without ligation was setting as a control group, with eight rats in each group. The rats were treated with corresponding medicine for 4 weeks from the second day after modeling. The expression of Rock1, Rock2 and its mRNA were detected by immunohistochemical and real-time PCR method. Results The protein expression of Rock1 and Rock2 in model group were significantly higher than those in the sham-operation group (P<0.05). The protein expression of Rock1 and Rock2 in the Fuzheng Huayu group and Fasudil hydrochloride group were lower than those in the model group. The mRNA expression of Rock2 was significantly higher in the model group than that in the sham-operation group (P<0.05). The mRNA expression of Rock1 in the Fasudil hydrochloride group was lower than that in the model group (P<0.05). The mRNA expression of Rock2 in the Fuzheng Huayu group and Fasudil hydrochloride group was lower than that in the model group (P<0.05). Conclusion Fuzheng Huayu Capsule can decrease the expression of Rock1, Rock2 and Rock2 in the marginal zone of myocardial infarction in rats with MI. The anti ventricular remodeling mechanism of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule maybe related with this.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summary the therapy outcome of retroperitoneal laparoscopic treatment on upper ureteral calculi.Methods The retroperitoneal laparoscopic treatment were performed to all cases from Jun.2011 to Jun.2012 in our hospital.All cases were treated with 3-hold method (two 10 mm and one 5 mm ports).The retroperitoneal space was made by a combination of blunt and balloon dissection,and the space was maintained with CO2 Ureteral longitudinal incision was made to remove the stones,and double J catheter was served as stent drainage.Absorbable suture was used to suture ureteral incision.Results A retroperitoneal approach was performed in 12 patients,and another patient was conducted the open surgery because the stone cower in the kidney calices.Operative periods ranged from 55 to 132 min (average was 85 min).There were no significant postoperative complications.Conclusion It is a minimally invasive and effective approach in the therapy of upper urerteral calculi with laparoscopic.
ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT
To explore the effects of Shengmai injection and Xuesaitong injection, compound Chinese herbal medicines for replenishing qi and activating blood, on ventricular fibrillation threshold, heart structure and connexin 43 (Cx43) expression in rats with myocardial infarction (MI).
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of shensongyangxin capsule on myocardial remodeling and ventricular fibrillation characteristics in rat with coronary artery ligation.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Twenty-three male rats were randomly divided into sham-group (n = 5), model group (n = 6), anmiodarone group (n = 6) and shensongyangxin capsule group (n = 6). Drugs were administrated after modeling of 2 days, lasting four weeks. Two dimensional and Doppler images were acquired by a 15 MHz high-frequency linear ultrasound transducer at 4 weeks after operation, and chest was opened to detect ventricular fibrillation threshold value and persistent time.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>After administration of four weeks, echocardiogram was detected. Compared with model group, shensongyangxin capsule group diastasis interventricular septum thickness (IVSTd) and left ventricle diameter (LVDd) were significiently different between them (1.20 +/- 0.49) vs (0.78 +/- 0.08) mm and (6.77 +/- 1.34) vs (7.95 +/- 0.92) mm, (P < 0.01 and 0.05); echocardiogram result had no difference in amiodarone and model groups (P > 0.05). LVMI measured by practicion was different between shensongyangxin capsule and model groups: (17.12 +/- 1.91) vs (18.95 +/- 1.41) g x m(-2), (P < 0.05), while amiodarone group had no difference compared with model group. Electrophysiology was used to detect ventricular fibrillation threshold value and 1-5, 6-10, 11-15 V three stages' ventricular fibrillation threshold persistent time were significiently different among each group (P < 0.01), 16-20 V stage's ventricular fibrillation persistent time were also different among each group (P <0.05). Sample "average ranks" showed ventricular fibrillation threshold value of amiodarone group and shensongyangxin capsule group were four times than model group; and amiodaron group had best effect of holding-back ventricular fibrillation persistent time.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The coronary artery ligation can result in myocardial remodeling by increasing volume load, and at the same time influencing electrophysiology function of heart. Amiodaron elevated ventricular fibrillation threshold of heart, this effect maybe relate to influencing many ion channels of myocardial cellular membrane; shensongyangxin capsule also elevate ventricular fibrillation threshold of heart, this effect maybe also relate to influencing many ion channels of myocardial cellular membrane, and on the other hand this effect maybe relate to hold-back ventricular remodeling after coronary artery was ligated, accordingly improve electrophysiological base material of heart.</p>

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the prevention and cure methods of the urethra prostate electricity cutting(TURP) on the bleeding after the benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) treating.Methods 35 cases with BPH of the bleeding patients after TURP were statistically analyzed.Results 26 examples turned for the better after general treatment;6 examples turned for the better after resectoscope wash gore and gave or got an electric shock the hemostasis;3 examples changed to the surgical operation hemostasis cured.Conclusion Accurate disposal inside operation and process behind operation is a key to decrease bleeding after the TURP of the BPH.
ABSTRACT
Objective To improve the diagnosis and treatment of the kidney injury.Methods 136 cases of the kidney injury were analyzed retrospectively.Results 5 cases died,the other cases were cured.69 cases were followed up for 1～3 years,the cystic kidney function was all normal.Conclusion On time,accurate proceed assessment for the kidney injury,controlling strictly the digit advertises for the operation or not operation is a key to treating kidney injury.
