[Objective] Preliminarily clear the effective substance of Fuzi in treatment of AA by comparing the NO, TNF-α and toe volume in AA rats affected by diester alkaloids,monoester alkaloids and non-ester alkaloids. [Methods]Male wistar rats were randomly divided into comparing group and model group. FCA was given in the left rear toe of rat in model group(once a day,0.1mL each). After 2 weeks ’injection, model rats were randomly divided into model group, diester alkaloids group, monoester alkaloids group and non-ester alkaloids group. Rats in comparing group and model group were given physiological saline and others were given corresponding alkaloids. Detect the NO,TNF-αand toe volume after 2 weeks. [Results]Compared with the model group, the weight gain of rats in other group was suppressed(P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the toe volume and the NO, TNF-αof rats in the alkaloids groups reduced significantly(P<0.01).The toe volume of rats in monoester alkaloids group reduced more obviously. The NO of rats in diester alkaloids group and non-ester alkaloids group reduced more significantly than the rats in monoester alkaloids group( P<0.05). [ Conclusion] The diester alkaloids, monoester alkaloids and non-ester alkaloids in Fuzi al have a significant effect on AA rats and the effect of the monoester alkaloids is the best.

Objective To evaluate the effect of small-dose Lorazepam on residual dizziness in elderly patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) after successful particle repositioning maneuver (PRM).Methods A total of 268 patients aged 60 years and over, who were diagnosed as BPPV and underwent successful treatment of PRM, were randomly assigned to medication group and control group.The patients in the medication group were prescribed low-dose lorazepam for 1 week (0.25 mg/time, 3 times/d), whereas the patients in the control group were not prescribed any medication.Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) was employed to evaluate the anxiety status of patients before and after PRM, and the effect of small-dose lorazepam on residual dizziness was accessed by using the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) scale and the Activities-specific Balance Confidence (ABC) scale in elderly BPPV patients after PRM.Results No difference in HAMA scores was found between the two groups (t=-0.316, P=0.753) before PRM.The medication group (t=19.931, P=0.000) and the control group (t=26.930, P=0.000) showed a significant improvement in HAMA scores after PRM versus before PRM.However, HAMA scores after PRM was lower in the medication group than in the control group (t=14.967, P=0.000).The medication group had significant improvements after PRM versus before PRM in the following: DHI scores (t=43.661, P=0.000), functional (t=32.326, P=0.000981), emotional (t=31.981, P=0.000), physical (t=14.330, P=0.000) subscale scores, as well as in the ABC scores (t=-23.248, P=0.000).The improvements were also found in the control group in DHI scores (t=46.282, P=0.000), functional (t=32.117, P=0.000), emotional (t=34.563, P=0.000),physical (t=13.182, P=0.000) subscale scores, as well as in the ABC scores(t=-24.536, P=0.000)after PRM versus before PRM.However, after PRM the total DHI score, functional,emotional and physical subscale scores were lower in medication group than in control group (t=5.994, 3.206, 4.757 and 2.851, respectively, P=0.009, 0.002, 0.000 and 0.005).The ABC scores were higher in medication group than in control group (t=2.678, P=0.008) after PRM.Conclusions The elderly patients with BPPV are often accompanied by symptoms of anxiety.The small-dose Lorazepam can alleviate residual dizziness in elderly BPPV patients after successful PRM.

Objective To investigate the risk factors and management of retained common bile duct stones.Method The clinical data of 14 patients with retained common bile duct stones between 1994 and 2000 was statistically analyzed in comparison with 191 patients of the negative postoperative T tube cholangiography. Results Common bile duct stones were present in 20% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy. In 7% of patients, stones were left in the bile ducts after common bile duct exploration. Statistically significant difference was observed in the age of the patient population, the percentage of associated acute cholangitis, the number of the stones present in common bile duct and the frequercy of the intraoperative choledochoscopy when compared retained bile duct stones with negative postoperative T tube cholangiography. Conclusions Retained common bile duct stones is related to age of the patient, the association of acute cholangitis, the number of the common bile duct stones and the operative choledochoscopy. Postoperative flexible choledochoscopy or endoscopic papillotomy is an effective method for managing patients with retained common bile duct stones.

Objective To improve the cure rate of hepatobiliary lithiasis.Methods Two hundred and seventy-five patients with retained gallstones in the hepatic bile ducts after choledochostomy were treated with choledochofiberscope from August 1989 to August 2001 in this hospital.Results In 252 cases(91.6%), the residual gallstones were thoroughly removed with choledochoscope and in remaining 23 cases(8.4%), the stones were not completely removed. The factors affecting the results of the procedures include improper locating of T-tube, the exfoliation of T-tube and closure of fistula, the size and the incarceration of retained gallstones, the narrowed bile ducts, the performance of intraoperative choledochoscope, the method of operation.Conclusions Choledochofiberscope is of great value in surgical treatment of hepatobiliary lithiasis. However it can't completely replace to remove the damaged liver caused by the gallstones.

The B Phycoerythrin(B PE) could both be separated after crude phycobiliproteins from Porphyridium cruentum were precipitated in ammonium sulphate and dialyzed,then chromatographed on a hydroxylapatite (HA) Column and a Sephadex G 100 column respectively.The purity of B PE separated by two methods was 4.92 and 3.78 (A 545 nm/A 280 nm) respectively.When the purified B PE was electrophoresed under polyacryiamide gradient gel electrophoresis condition,only one band was observed.The B PE possessed an absorption maximum at 545nm and a room fluoresence emission at 574.5nm.

The effects of polymerization conditions including scan potential range, scan cycles, the concentration ratio of template molecules to functional monomer, pH of the buffer, and washing time for removing the template molecule from the imprinted polymer on the difference of zero current potential of benzidine ( BZ) interaction with BZ-MIP were investigated. The optimum preparations were obtained. The imprinted capacity of benzidine, 4-chloroaniline, and 4-aminobiphenyl and carmine was calculated as 0. 632, 0. 1123, 0. 1123, 0. 0847 and 0. 0725, respectively. This indicated that BZ-MIP had good specific recognition and selectivity to benzidine, and other substances did not interfere with the binding of BZ-MIP with BZ. The zero current potential variation was linear with the lorgarithm of BZ concentration in the range of 4í10-8-1í10-5 mol/Lwith detection limitation of 1. 89í10-8 mol/L. The sensor was used to detect BZ in waste water sample with recoveries of 95 . 7%-104 . 2%.

Objective To investigate the frequency of posterior semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (PC-BPPV) in each ear,and to explore the effect of sleep position in lateral-predominance of ear by PC-BPPV during sleep onset in elderly patients. Methods Totally 114 patients aged (67.4±7.5) years with unilateral PC BPPV confirmed by a positive Dix Hallpike test,were retrospectively reviewed.All patients included in the study were able to define a leteral predominant,favorate head-lying side (right,left or supine position) during sleep onset. Results The Dix Hallpike test was found to be positive on the right side in 72 patients and positive on the left side in 42 cases.During sleep onset,61 patients habitually laid their head on the right side,34 laid their head on the left,and the remaining 19 cases on the supine position.Among 114 cases with positive Dix Hallpike test,there were 78 cases with the same side between affected ear and sleep position (52 cases right,26 cases left),36 cases with different side (9 cases with right position and left positive Dix Hallpike test,8 cases left position and right positive Dix Hallpike test,19 cases slept in a supine position including 12 cases with right positive Dix Hallpike test and 7 cases with left positive).The association between affected ear and head-lying side during sleep onset was statistically significant (x2 =35.737,P＜0.01) and Pearson coefficient of continency was 0.4885. Conclusions Among the elderly,right-sided PC-BPPV is popular,and these patients favorite right head-lying position during sleep.There is association between the affected side by PC-BPPV and the head-lying side during sleep.

Oxaliplatin, a third-generation platinum-based compound with significant activity against tumors, has become pivotal for the therapy of cancer after cisplatin and carboplatin.The digestive tract reaction, myelosuppression and nephrotoxicity have been alleviated, however, oxaliplatin induced neurotoxicity occurs prominently.Therefore, how to effectively eliminate and prevent chemotherapy-induced side and toxic effects becomes a great challenge for oncologists.plenty of evidence has hinted that combination of Chinese herbal medicine and oxaliplatin can not only reduce the toxicity, but also improve the actual efficacy, clinical research and experimental researches on increasing off cacy and decresing foxcity of Chinese herbal medicine combined with oxali-platin in the treatment of cancer in recent years were rewewed.to provide reference for the clinical use of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy regimen.

BACKGROUND: It is still lack of sufficient clinical evidence whether the patients can benefit from the routine use of elastic bandages after total knee arthroplasty. OBJECTIVE: To explore whether the use of elastic compression bandage after first total knee arthroplasty is beneficial to the prognosis of patients. METHODS: Totally 60 knee osteoarthritis patients who received bilateral knee arthroplasty in the Department of Joint Surgery, West Coast Hospital Branch of Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were selected from September 2017 to September 2018. One limb of the patient was covered with a general surgical dressing, while an elastic bandage was applied from the instep to the middle of the thigh (elastic compression bandage group). One limb was covered only with a general surgical dressing (control group). All patients signed the informed consent. The study was approved by the Hospital Ethics Committee. Circumference (thigh, knee and calf), flexural activity (range of motion) and visual analogue scale of the lower extremities were measured at 1, 2, 3 and 7 days after the operation by professionals who were not involved in patient management. Drainage volume 24 hours after operation and the occurrence of complications within 30 days after operation were recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) At 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after surgery, circumference of thigh, knee and calf was smaller in the elastic compression bandage group than in the control group. Range of motion of the knee was better in the elastic compression bandage group than in the control group (P < 0.001). (2) At 1 and 2 days after surgery, resting visual analogue scale scores were higher in the elastic compression bandage group than in the control group (P < 0.001). At 7 days, resting visual analogue scale scores were lower in the elastic compression bandage group than in the control group (P < 0.001). No significant difference in visual analogue scale scores was found between the two groups at 3 days. Sports visual analogue scale scores in the elastic compression bandage group were higher than in the control group at 1 and 2 days (P < 0.001). However, no significant difference in sports visual analogue scale scores was detected between the two groups at 3 and 7 days. (3) There was no difference in wound-healing complications between the two groups, but the sample size was too small for meaningful statistical analysis. (4) There was a statistically significant difference in drainage volume between the two groups at 24 hours after surgery. (5) No deep infection, venous thrombosis or reoperation occurred within 30 days. (6) It is concluded that the application of elastic compression bandage from the instep to the middle of the thigh after the first total knee arthroplasty can effectively reduce the swelling of the operative limb and postoperative blood loss, increase the flexion and extension of the operative limb, which is conducive to the rapid recovery after the operation. It is worth popularizing and applying.
