Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture plus functional exercise in patients with olecranon comminuted fracture.Method Seventy-sevenpatients with olecranon comminuted fracture were enrolled as the subjects and allocated, using a random numbertable, to a control group (38cases) and a treatment group (39 cases).The control group received routine rehabilitation such as postoperative functional exercise and the treatment group, electroacupuncture in addition.Inthe two groups of patients, the pain score was recorded at one,sevenand fourteen days after the surgery; elbow joint activity was examined at two days and two months after the surgery; the elbow function score was recorded at six months after the surgery.Result There was no statistically significant difference in the pain score between the twogroupsat one day after the surgery (P>0.05).Thepain score was lower in the treatment group than in the control group atsevenand fourteen days after the surgery (P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in elbow jointactivity between the two groupsat two days after the surgery (P>0.05). Elbow joint activity was larger in the treatment group than in the control group at two months after the surgery (P<0.05).The elbow HSS score was higher in the treatment group than in the control group at six months after the surgery (P<0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture plus functional exercise can effectively decrease the pain score and increase elbow joint activity and the elbow function score in patients with olecranon comminuted fracture.It has greater value in clinical application.

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)is a common disease among premature neonates and the management of which has always been a challenge to the neonatologists. Early treatment has been advocated as the first-line approach, and drug induced closure is yet the most effective, inexpensive, and convenient method. During the last two decades,indomethacin was often given as conservative treatment, and its closure rate in PDA was approximately 46% ～ 89%. However,indomethacin may increase the number of undesirable or harmful effects including renal damage, intraventricular hemorrhage, necrotizing enterocolitis, and enterobrosis,etc. Recently,ibuprofen is rapidly emerging as a new promising drug for treatment of PDA in preterm infants with closure rate of 73.0% ～95.5%. It is used as standard therapy to close PDA,and it has less influence on the hemodynamics of kidneys, brain and gastrointestinal tract. The surgery is needed in patients with drug treatment failure and cardio-pulmonary function damage.

Based on multiple painless needle insertion skills in clinic combined with own experience, the authors propose the opinion that different painless needle insertion methods need to be used according to the positions where acupoints are. The appropriate needle insertion mean must be selected in accord with the anatomical characteristic of acupoint position, namely, tapping insertion is applied in scalp part, skin-pinching up needle insertion is used in forehead and superficial nerve trunk, fingernail-pressure needle insertion in ocular region and positions where large blood vessels distribute, flying acupuncture insertion in face and finger tip, vibrating needle in occipitonuchal region, quivering insertion in abdomen, quick pricking by single hand in the four limbs and back, and chop acupuncture in palm and pelma. The insertion methods are systematically discussed in terms of preparation, acupoint position, manipulation and attention, etc, so that to provide the reference for painless needle insertion.

Objectives: To observe the efficacy of encephalo-duro-arterio-synangiosis (EDAS) or in combination with endovascular embolization in the treatment of patients with moyamoya disease complicating intracranial aneurysms and to investigate the therapeutic strategy for moyamoya disease complicating intracranial aneurysms. Methods: A total of 27 patients (28 aneurysms) with moyamoya disease complicating intracranial aneurysms confirmed by cerebral angiography were recruited. Nineteen patients were presented as hemorrhagic disease and 8 patients were presented as cerebral ischemic disease. For 10 patients with arterial trunk aneurysms, they were treated with endovascular embolization, and then were treated with unilateral EDAS 7-10 days after embolization. Three months later the contralateral EDAS were performed. As for the aneurysms located in the peripheral arteries (n = 17) , if the embolization could be performed (n =9), the aneurysms were obliterated with coils or ONYX glue, otherwise the ipsilateral EDAS should be performed (n = 8). Results: Circled digit oneEighteen aneurysms in 19 patients (20 aneurysms) were embolized successfully and 2 patients were failed (one aneurysm in lenticulostriate artery and the other in posterior choroidal artery). After embolization, 3 patients with peripheral aneurysms had contralateral limb weakness, and recovered within 1 week to 3 months. Circled digit twoThere was no bleeding and rebleeding for 10-60 months follow-up after EDAS. Among the patients with cerebral ischemia, 2 had recurrence of TIA within 3 months after EDAS, but they had no recurrence of the symptom after 3 months. Circled digit threeThe angiography of 21 patients (21 aneurysms) 3 to 15 months after EDAS showed that the aneurysms treated with embolization did not reoccur (12 aneurysms); 8 of 9 peripheral aneurysms without eml)olization were disappeared; and significant retention of contrast agent in 1 aneurysm was found. All 21 patients showed better communication between the superficial temporal artery and intracranial angiogenesis. Conclusion: Endovascular embolization is one of the important means for the treatment of moyamoya disease complicating intracranial aneurysms. EDAS may promote the occlusion of peripheral aneurysms.

Objective To observe the serum estradiol level in newborns at different gestational age and the infants with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), and explore the relationship between these changes and ROP. Methods A total of 178 newborns hospitalized in the Children's Hospital of Fudan University were enrolled in the study. They were divided into three groups based on the gestational age, ＜ 32 weeks group, 32-37 weeks group and term group. The three groups were further divided into non-oxygen and oxygen subgroups. Infants with birth weight less than 2000 g were evaluated for ROP and those diagnosed as ROP were under ROP group (n=6). Serum estradiol levels were measured every week from birth to discharge with radioimmunoassay. Results Serum estradiol levels of newborns quickly declined after birth. In the non-oxygen subgroups, serum estradiol levels in 32 ～ 37 weeks group were remarkably higher than those of term group in the first week [(3506±1376) pmol/L vs (1717±179) pmol/L,P＜0. 05] and the third week [(1431±92) pmol/L vs (996±102) pmol/L, P＜0. 05]; Serum estradiol levels in ＜32 weeks group was only remarkably higher than those of term group in the first week [(3173± 1369) pmol/L vs (1717± 179) pmol/L,P＜0. 05]; Serum estradiol level in the ＜32 week group was (560±355) pmol/L, lower than that in the 32-37 weeks group [( 1124 ± 128) pmol/L] (P＜0. 05). There was no difference of serum estradiol levels in the oxygen and non-oxygen subgroups of the same group. There was no significant difference of serum estradiol levels between the ROP group and ＜32 weeks group. Serum estradiol levels in ROP group was lower than that of premature group without ROP at 29 and 32-36 weeks of corrected gestational age, but no statistical difference was shown. Conclusions Very low serum estradiol level in premature infants may be related to the development of ROP, but further clinical studies are required.

Objective: To evaluate the application of two-dimension and color Doppler ultrasound in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of fascial space infection in maxillofacial region. Methods: Retrospective analysis was conducted on 87 cases of maxillofacial space infections, among which there were 6 suspected cases of accompanying tumor.Results: In the 87 cases, 53 had abscess formation, confirmed by operative drainage or puncture biopsy. The pathological studies revealed 2 cases of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and 1 case of branchial cleft cyst accompanied with infection. The 3 cases showed characteristic appearance in ultrasonic imaging. The space infection presented stronger echogenicity than that in tumors. In this study, 95% (83/87) cases showed grey or medium echogenic dots, while 4.5% (4/87) cases did not show obvious echogenic dots due to a large amount of abscess, and 2 cases of tumors, however, did not show any echogenic dots. In addition, 87% (76/87) cases had few blood flow in the lesion areas, and 22% (2/87) cases had much blood flow in the lesion areas. All cases showed that the lesion areas and the blood flow reduced obviously with enhanced echo following anti-inflammatory treatment except 2 cases accompanied with tumor without obvious changes in lesion areas and blood flow.Conclusion: The ultrasonic diagnosis with two dimension and color Doppler ultrasound has high accuracy in diagnosis of maxillofacial space infection, with accordance rate up to 96.6%, much higer than CT/MRI. It is suggested that the two dimension and color Doppler ultrasound can be used as a prior choice of diagnosis.

Translational medicine is inevitable in the development of modern medicine, and the uprising concept of translational medicine provides an opportunity for the development of Chinese medicine (CM). Their ideas are well communicated. There are two patterns of researching on CM based on translational medicine: 'literature to bench to bedside' and 'bench to bedside to bench'. CM has her advantages in preventing and treating cardiovascular disease. Effective methods for preventing and treating cardiovascular disease by CM should be further studied based on translational medicine concepts.
