OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of pagosid in treating acute gouty arthritis.METHODS:70pa-tients were randomly assigned to treatment with pagosid(treatment group)or colchicine(control group),the onset time of therapeutic effect,symptom amelioration,blood uric acid descending level and adverse drug reactions of the two groups were monitored.RESULTS:There were ameliorated clinical symptoms in both groups;however,the blood uric acid level of the treatment group were reduced,and little adverse reaction involved in this group and the onset of curative effects was slow,which stood at(65.78?30.19)hours.CONCLUSION:Treatment of acute gouty arthritis with pagosid ameliorates hyper-uricemia and mitigates pain and swelling accepted by patients better.

To study an improved translabyrithine approach, twenty adult cadaver heads (40 sides) fixed with formalin were dissected by mimicking translabyrithine method under light microscope ,and measurements were performed . The results showed that the rate of meeting with mastoid emissary was 33/40(82. 50%). The distance between the middle part of sigrnoid and the vertical part of facial nerve was 7. 22 ?1.95 mm. The width of the middle part of sigmoid was 10. 5 ? 0. 79mm, the left side was 8. 89 ? 1. 03mm, and the right side was 9. 88 ?2.14mm. The height of jugular bulb was 8. 08?3. 46mm,the left side was 6. 78 ? 3. 17mm,and the right side was 9. 07?3. 04mm. The distance between the highest point of jugular bulb and the base of internal acoustic meatus was 4. 54 ? 2. 81 mm, the left side was 5. 93?3. 12mm, and the right side was 2. 65?1. 87 mm. The distance between the inferior margin of internal acoustic meatus aperture and superrior petrosal sinus was 5. 09?1. 29mm . The diameter of superrior petrosal sinus was 1. 43?0. 08 mm. There were two types of superrior petrosal sinus entering to the sigmoid (or transverse sinus). The angle between superrior petrosal sinus and sigmoid was 52. 17 ?6. 93?. The results suggest that the improved translabyrithine approach can give enough vision for cerebellopontine angle operation.

In order to verify the dependability of 3D data, twenty-four temporal bones of adult head specimen fixed with formaldehyde were scanned by multi-slice helical CT. The technique of shade surface display and volume rendering were used in reconstruction. The 3D data of the surface structure of temporal bone were compared with anatomical specimens. The result showed that the new type CT has more rapid speed in 3D reconstruction and clearer imaging. The technique of shade surface display and volume rendering can give very clear structure of temporal bone. The 3D data makes no difference with anatomical measurement (no statistic difference). It is suggested that the 3d data can instruct the clinic directly.

[Objective] To investigate the curative effect of the red rice in treating the experimental fractures in the rats.[Methods] 64 Wistar rats suffered with single fracture in the forearm were randomized into two groups,one red rice group and the other normal saline control group.On the twenty-first day and 42 day after operation,the qualitation and morphometric observation of the bone tissue were performed.[Results] After the treatment of the red rice,the bony union of the fractured bone in the rats was obviously accelerated.The morphometric index of the bony tissue was higher than the control group with the statistical significance.The remodeling of the bony callus,the emergence of the lamellar bone and recanalization of the medullary cavity could all be enhanced by the use of the red rice.The mineralized bony callus area,the osteoblast index and the matrical calcification were obviously higher than those of the control group.[Conclusions] The growth of bony callus,the index of the osteoblast,the metrical calcification and the remodeling of the bony callus could all be enhanced by the red rice and therefore the bone union could be accelerated.

Objective To evaluate the effect of duration of subcutaneous injection on the extent of bruising at injection sites among patients receiving low- molecular weight heparin. Methods Randomized clinical trials and quasi-experimental within-subject design that assessed the effect of subcutaneous duration on the bruising of injection sites were selected in Cochrane library, JBI evidence-based practice medical and nursing database, PubMed biomedical information retrieval platform, Medline general medical literature retrieval database. RevMan5.3 software was used to analyze the data after quality assessment, and data extraction were made for eligible trials. Results A total of 9 trials were included. The results of Meta-analysis supported the 30 s duration injection technique on reducing the rate of bruising of injection sites than 10 s duration injection technique (odds ratio was 0.34,95%confidence interval 0.25-0.47, P<0.01).While it was failed to support the effect on reducing the bruising area 48 and 72 hours after injection (P > 0.05). Conclusions Increasing the length of low-molecular weight heparin subcutaneous injection can reduce the rate of bruising. While it could not effectively reduce the area.

Objective To profile the subtypes of open reading frame 75(ORF75)of human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)in patients with Kaposi's sarcoma,and to evaluate their relationship with clinical phenotypes and invasiveness of Kaposi's sarcoma.Methods Twenty-five paraffin-embeded tissue specimens of Kaposi's sarcoma were collected in the Department of Dermatology.People's Hospiml of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.DNA was extracted from these specimens.and nested-PCR was performed to amplify HHV-8 DNA followed bv bi-directional sequencing.Phylogenetic analysis was carried out by using the software DNASTAR,Clustal W program and PHYLIP package so as to identify the ORF75 subtyoe of HHV-8.Results HHV-8 DNA was detected in 21(84%)out of the 25 samples,and 7 cases of AIDS-associated Kaposi's sarcoma were all positive for HHV-8.Among the 21 patients carrying HHV-8 DNA,18 were positive for subtype A ORF75.3 for subtype C ORF75.The ORF75 subtypes had no significant correlation with the presence of mucosal lesions or clinical phenotypes of Kaposi's sarcoma.Conclusions The majority of patients with Kaposi's sarcoma in Xinjiang are infected with HHV-8 of ORF 75 subtype A and C.The ORF75 subtypes of HHV-8 have no correlation with the presence of mucosal lesions or clinical phenotypes of Kaposi's sarcoma.

Objective To examine the clinical factors associated with postoperative outcome in dementia combined with cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related intracerebral hemorrhage (CAA-ICH). Methods The clinical data of 25 surgical patients of dementia combined with CAA-ICH were retrospectively analyzed. The postoperative short-term effects and long-term effects were evaluated at the 30 d and 6 months after operation according to the modified Rankin score (MRS), and the influencing factors were analyzed. Results Among the 25 patients, eusemia was in 6 cases. Age ≥ 75 years, Glasgow coma score (GCS) ≤ 8 scores on admission, hypertension, postoperative anemia, pulmonary diseases, midline shift were the influencing factors of postoperative short-term effects (P < 0.05 or <0.01). Twenty-two patients were followed up for 6 months, and ensemia was in 9 cases. Age≥75 years, GCS ≤ 8 scores on admission, hypertension, postoperative anemia, hypoproteinemia and pulmonary diseases were the influencing factors of postoperative long-term effects (P<0.01 or<0.05). Conclusions Preoperative assessment is important for the patients of dementia combined with CAA-ICH. Age ≥ 75 years, GCS ≤ 8 socres on admission, hypertension, postoperative anemia, pulmonary diseases, midline shift are associated with poor short-term effects; age ≥ 75 years, GCS ≤ 8 scores on admission,hypertension, postoperative anemia, hypoproteinemia and pulmonary diseases are associated with poor long-term effects.
