OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of anatomical abnormalities in non-sinusitis-related rhinogenous headache and to evaluate effects of nasal endoscopic surgery for non-sinusitis-related rhinogenous headache. METHOD: Sixty-eight patients diagnosed as non-sinusitis-related rhinogenous headache were selected in this study. They were treated with nasal endoscopic surgery after failed long-term medical treatment. Data from this group were analyzed retrospectively. RESULT: Multiple anatomical abnormalities were noted by endoscopy and sinus computed tomographic scans in the 66 patients. These included nasal septum deviation in 46 cases (67.6%), middle turbinate gasfication in 20 cases (29.4%), protruding ethmoid bulla or uncinate processor in 10 cases (14.7%) and abnormal middle turbinate in 8 case (11.8%). Fifty-six (82.4%) patients showed significant improvement after surgery. CONCLUSION Non-sinusitis-related rhinogenous headache can be significantly minimized with individual nasal endoscopic surgery, as long as a precise identification of the etiologic anatomical factor can be made.

Aim To study the protective effects of curcumin on myocardial reperfusion injury in rats.Methods Myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury model was established through occluding the left anterior descending branch of coronary artery for 60 min and removing the ligation later to reperfuse for 30 min in vivo.Different doses of curcumin were administered through intravenous injection 5 min before the onset of ischemia.The changes of hemodynamics were recorded and myocardial infarct sizes were measured.Results Curcumin(20,40 mg?kg~(-1))improved the hemodynamics during myocardial ischemia reperfusion in a dose-dependent manner,as shown by the significant increase in LVSP and?dp/dt_(max) and the decrease in LVEP.Moreover,curcumin reduced the myocardial infarct sizes.Conclusion Curcumin exerts protective effects on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury.

Objective To discuss the surgical skills and clinical value of laparoscopic splenectomy with a safe approach to the splenic hilum through first mobilizing the lower pole of the spleen.Methods A total of 88 patients with hypersplenism secondary to liver cirrhosis who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy in our department from September 2015 to September 2016 were selected into this study.And these patients were divided into two groups based on whether to take the safe approach to the splenic hilum through first mobilizing the lower pole of the spleen in laparoscopic splenectomy.The control group included 40 cases who underwent the traditonal laparoscopic splenectomy,while the observation group included 48 cases who took the safe approach to the splenic hilum through first mobilizing the lower pole of the spleen in laparoscopic splenectomy.The clinical data were collected retrospectively by medical clinical records review.Results There was no mortality occurred in this study.The blood loss of the observation group was (247.50±135.89)mL,which was obviously lower than (361.75±144.43)mL of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The operation time of the two groups were (194.69±47.99)min and (232.75±45.26)min respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).No significant difference was found in terms of rate of conversion to laparotomy,rate of intraoperative blood transfusion,postoperative hospital stay and complications (P>0.05).Conclusion It is very crucial for a safe approach to the splenic hilum through first mobilizing the lower pole of the spleen to establish a tunnel behind the splenic hilum in laparoscopic splenectomy.It is safe and feasible to perform a safe approach to the splenic hilum through first mobilizing the lower pole of the spleen in laparoscopic splenectomy.The technique is generalized in clinics,especially for freshmen.

The researches on attention provide a promising framework for studying bipolar disorder pathophysiology and treatment.Previous findings have shown the negative attention bias maybe a risk factor for bipolar disorder.The current review discusses this issue in several aspects,including attention bias toward emotional information in bipolar disorder is state or trait,and whether shows mood-congruent bias;the character of attention bias in the different episodes of bipolar disorder.The article also puts forward an intervention of attention bias modification for treating bipolar disorder.

OBJECTIVE:To study the interaction of cefprozil (CE) with bovine serum albumine (BSA). METHODS:Under the temperatures of 289,299 and 309 K,the interaction of CE with BSA for 50 min had been studied by fluorescence quenching, UV spectrometry and synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy. Quenching constant(KSV)and speed constant(Kq)were calculated by Stern-Volmer equation. Static quenching constant(KLB)was obtained by Lineweaver-Burk equation,and UV spectrogram was used to determine the type of quenching. Double logarithmic equation was used to calculate the binding constants (Kb) and the number of binding site(n). Thermodynamic equation was used to obtain ΔH,ΔS,ΔG. Hill's coefficients(nH)was obtained by Hill equa-tion. RESULTS:At three different temperatures,with CE concentration increasing,fluorescence intensity of BSA decreased regular-ly. The value of KSV,Kq,KLB,Kb and n and nH decreased with the temperature increasing. ΔH,ΔS and ΔG were lower than 0. The numbers of binding sites were approximately equal to 1 and nH<1. CONCLUSIONS:CE statically quench the fluorescence of BSA,and the binding of them have been found to certain extent. The process of binding is spontaneous exothermic process. The main binding forces include Hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals forces,and primary binding site for CE is located at sub-domain ⅡA of BSA. There was some negative cooperative effect. CE would not affect the conformation of BSA. The binding site of CE and BSA is near by tyrosine residue.

Hypoglycemia is a common metabolic problem in newborn infants,which might lead to brain injury even brain death when it keeps extremely low for a long time.Therefore,it is of great importance to monitor blood glucose in neonates,especially in groups of infants who are at risk of hypoglycemia,in order to identify and treat this condition and prevent adverse neurological outcomes promptly.It is given that infant of a diabetic mother,preterm neonate,low birth weight and asphyxia are its risk factors.Relative to blood glucose monitoring methods in clinical,continuous glucose monitoring system is comprehensive,continuous and with low pain.Continuous glucose monitoring system has been applied in high-risk neonates of hypoglycemia in recent years.It is of great help to understand the complete picture and change trend of blood glucose,optimize blood glucose management,study newborn glucose metabolic characteristics and the relationship between hypoglycemia and brain damage,so as to define and manage neonatal hypoglycemia.
