Objective To investigate the causes of the complications occurred after repeated embolization therapy for huge cerebral arteriovenous malformations and to discuss their nursing interventions. Methods A total of 54 embolization procedures were performed in 17 patients with huge cerebral arteriovenous malformations. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The causes of complications were carefully examined and the preventive measures were discussed. The prompt and necessary nursing interventions were formulated in order to prevent the complications or serious consequences. Results Among the total 17 patients, one patient gave up the treatment because of the cerebral hemorrhage which occurred two months after receiving 3 times of embolization therapy. One patient experienced cerebral vascular spasm during the procedure, which was relieved after antispasmodic medication and no neurological deficit was left behind. Two patients developed transient dizziness and headache, which were alleviated spontaneously. One patient presented with nervousness, fear and irritability, which made him hard to cooperate with the operation and the basis intravenous anesthesia was employed. No complications occurred in the remaining cases. Conclusion The predictive nursing interventions for the prevention of complications are very important for obtaining a successful repeated embolization therapy for huge cerebral arteriovenous malformations, which will ensure that the patients can get the best treatment and the complications can be avoided.

Objective To establish the optimal extraction technology for Yishen Jiangu Granules.Methods The orthogonal test was employed for selecting the optimum of extraction technology. The investigation factors were the consumption of water, the times and time of extraction. The extraction technology of Yishen Jiangu Granules was screened by the transfer rate of icariin in herb epimedii and yield of extraction.Results The best extraction condition was as follows:10 times of water, extracted for 3 times , each time was 3 h,2 h and 2 h. Conclusion This extracting technology for Yishen Jiangu Granule was objective, feasible, stable,reasonable and with good reproducibility.

Objective To stndy the clinical efficacy of bicyclol treatment for chronic hepatitis B.Methods 70 cases of chronic hepatitis B patients were randomly divided into 2 groups;35 cases in test group,with bicyclol 75mg daily,and 35 cases control group,in with SNMC 150mg daily patients in the 2 groups got continuous medication for 12 weeks.levels of serum aminotransferase changes before and after treatment were observed.Results Serum aminotransferase decreased more significantly in test group(P

[A Review] Many clinical and basic researches have revealed that brain damage can be deteriorated by diabetes significantly. However, its pathogenesis remains unclear. Recently, apoptosis have become the focus of research on brain damage. This article introduces the related investigations.

Hypoxic pulmonary pressor response (HPPR) was observed witb a preparation of perfused lungs in situ in rats, and the effects of deoxy-2-glucose (2DG), verapamil, and dipyridamole on HPPR were studied.During bypoxia (inhalation of 3% oxygen for 10 minutes) , there was a 50% increase on average in pulmonary arterial pressure in the perfused lungs in situ in rats. 2DG inhibited the first and second but enhanced the seventh and eighth HPPR. Both verapamil and dipyridamole depressed HPPR.On the basis of the results, the author suggests that the mechanism of HPPR might originate from the lungs themselves. There might be a close relation between the glucose-energy metabolism and the occurrence of HPPR, the trans-membranous influx of calcium might play a certain role in the development of HPPR, and adenosine would probably participate in the regulation of HPPR.

Objective To explore the test-retest reliability of elevated plus maze (EPM) which is taken as an animal model of state anxiety in Kunming mice.Methods The behavior of adult,male and female,Kunming mice in EPM was recorded twice with one-week inter-trial interval for lasting five minutes.The following parameters were evaluated:percentage of time on EPM open arms (Otime％),percentage of time on EPM closed arms (Ctime％),time on EPM open arms (Otime),time on EPM closed arms (Ctime),percentage of entries into EPM open arms (Oentries％),entries into EPM open arms (Oentries),entries into EPM closed arms (Centries),total entries into EPM open and closed arms (Entries).Subsequently,the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and the kappa agreement index (κ) were calculated for these parameters.Results ICC for Otime％ (♂ ICC=0.506,P＜0.05;♀ ICC=0.456,P＜0.05;♂ + ♀ ICC=0.492,P ＜0.01),Oentries (♂ ICC=0.673,P＜0.01;♀ ICC=0.648,P＜0.01;♂ + ♀ ICC=0.665,P＜0.01),Centries (♂ ICC=0.704,P＜0.01;♀ ICC=0.661,P＜0.01;♂ + ♀ ICC=0.686,P＜0.01),Entries (5 ICC=0.701,P＜0.01;♀ ICC=0.661,P＜0.01;5 + ♀ ICC=0.685,P＜0.01) showed a fair test-retest reliability,respectively.Only κ for Entries (♂ κ=0.253,P＜0.05;♀ κ=0.339,P＜0.05;♂ + ♀ κ=0.298,P＜0.01)displayed a significant but poor reliability between the test-retest trials.Conclusion The Otime％ Entries parameters as an acceptable index for Kunming mice in EPM can be used for exploratory and locomotion activity.Sex and repeated measurement have different effects on the Otime％ and Entries parameters,especially the more on the former.Therefore,Otime％ and Entries can be considered when EPM as an animal model of state anxiety in Kunming mice;meanwhile,more attention should be paid to both the sex (male animals recommended to EPM,especially) and repeated measurement effects.

AIM: Agricultural and industrial wastes, such as deteriorated corns and oil foots, were used as slow-release materials to prepare biodegradable puffed fertilizers, with urea was encapsulated in fertilizer particles with three-dimensional (3D) skeleton construction.METHODS: Slow-release materials formed 3D skeleton construction through modified treatments, swelling, comminution,extrusion and pelleting. Also 3D skeleton construction and its scales were modified by alternating technical conditions,species and ratio of materials in order to realize the controlled-release of fertilizers.RESULTS: Puffed slow-release fertilizers were prepared. And 3D skeleton construction formed as a compact protective layer on surface of fertilizer particles, whose coating fraction of urea was larger than 85%, the number of pin hole (larger than 20 nm) was lower than 20%, and thickness of membrane was larger than 30 nm. The protective layers of samples in soil were biodegraded and pulled out by microbes. Therefore fertilizer particles emerged gradually and dissolved into soil. Slow release of puffed fertilizers was a continuous process containing degradation, abscission and dissolution. And the whole procedure did not yield any polluting residuals. Release experiments in water showed that pure urea (100%) dissolved absolutely in 10 minutes, whereas only 8.2% urea was released from samples with urea content 85.50% after 120 minutes.And similar experiments in soil illuminated that 85% urea was dissolved from pure urea (100%) in 20 hours, whereas 1.3% and 0.8% urea was released from puffed slow-release fertilizers with urea content 81.5% and 40.9% respectively. Therefore,the release rate of slow-release puffed fertilizers was only 1/65.38 and 1/106.25 to that of pure urea.CONCLUSION: Compared with pure urea, the release rates of puffed slow-release fertilizers in both water and soil are apparently low. Furthermore, puffed slow-release fertilizers have good biodegradability (＞95%), which can improve the construction of soil and increase the content of organic fertilizers.

The silver doped poly ( L-lysine ) modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated by cyclic voltammetry, the surface of the electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrochemical behaviors and the simultaneous detection of xanthine and uric acid were studied by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The results indicated that this modified electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of xanthine and uric acid. The stable oxidation peaks of xanthine and uric acid appeared with the peak potential of 0. 980V and 0. 600V respectively at the modified electrode in pH 3. 0 phosphate buffer solution. The oxidation peaks of xanthine and uric acid were separated at 380 mV. Under the optimum conditions, the linear ranges for the determination of xanthine and uric acid were 1 . 00 × 10-6-2 . 50 × 10-4 mol/L respectively by differential pulse voltammetry. The detection limits were 5. 0×10-7mol/L. The method has been applied to the simultaneous detection of xanthine and uric acid in healthy human urine with satisfactory results.
