Objective To establish a method for determining cinnamic aldehyde content in Xianggui Huazhuo capsules by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Methods The content of cinnamic aldehyde was determined by GC-MS. Separation was performed on a capillary column (30 m×0. 25 mm, 0. 25 μm) with HP-5 as the stationary phase. A programmed temperature was employed. The flow rate was 1 mL·min-1 with He as carrier gas, and split ratio was 50∶1. The injection volume was 1. 0 μL. Results The cinnamic aldehyde was well isolated from the other ingredients. A good linear relationships of cin-namic aldehyde in range of 0. 02-4. 00 mg·mL-1 was observed. The correlation coefficient was 0. 999 4. The average recovery of cinnamic aldehyde was 96. 2% , and RSD was less than 2. 11% . Conclusion The method is simple, accurate and suitable for determination of cinnamic aldehyde content.

Objective:To enable the low-seniority medical personnel having the ability of disposing of difficult airway properly by mastering the knowledge of basic airway management through Airway Management Simulation Training and using all kinds of airway treatment tools.Methods:The senior medical simulation training tutors were selected, and the Airway Management Simulation Training Project Team was formed to develop the training course.

Objective To investigate the risk factors associated with post traumatic cerebral infarction (PTCI) after craniotomy hematoma evacuation for severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) so as to provide clinical reference for the early prevention of postoperative PTCI.Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 558 sTBI patients who received craniotomy hematoma evacuation admitted to Changsha Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2006 to June 2016.There were 340 males and 218 females,aged 15-71 years,with an average of 47.8 years.Among them,75 patients were at the age of less than 30 years,315 were at 30-50 years,and 168 were above 50 years.According to the Glasgow coma score (GCS),there were 127 patients with 3-4 points,124 with 5-6 points,and 307 with 7-8 points.The patients were divided into PTCI group (51 patients)and non-PTCI group (507 patients).The related indicators of the two groups of patients after admission were collected,including gender,age,injury cause,GCS,skull base fracture,traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (tSAH),cerebral hernia,hypotension,the time from injury to craniotomy,and whether decompressive craniectomy was performed.Univariate analysis was first performed for these factors,followed by multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results There were no significant differences in gender,age,injury cause,skull base fracture,and decompressive craniectomy between PTCI group and control group (P ＞ 0.05).In the PTCI group,there were 29 patients with GCS of 3-4 points,17 with 5-6 points,and five with 7-8 points;there were 48 patients with tSAH,37 patients with cerebral hernia,and 18 patients with hypotension.In terms of the time from injury to craniotomy,it took ＜ 3 hours in 30 patients,3-6 hours in 12,6-12 hours in five,and ＞ 12 hours in four.In the non-PTCI group,there were 98 patients with GCS of 3-4 points,107 with 5-6 points,and 302 with 7-8 points.There were 34 patients with tSAH,117 with cerebral hernia,and 35 with hypotension.In terms of the time from injury to craniotomy,it took ＜3 hours in 294 patients,3-6 hours in 130,6-12 hours in 68,and ＞ 12 hours in 15.The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that GCS of 3-6 points,tSAH,cerebral hernia,time from injury to craniotomy,and hypotension were significantly associated with PTCI after operation for sTBI (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions GCS of 3-6 points,tSAH,cerebral hernia,duration from injury to craniotomy,and hypotension time ＞ 3 hours are the high risk factors of PTCI in sTBI patients after craniotomy.For patients with these high risk factors,craniotomy should be performed in time,and the perioperative blood pressure and intracranial pressure stability should be maintained so as to relieve vasospasm.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the therapeutic effect of drug treatment for patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) accompanied with feeling of ear fullness (FEF).

METHODSA prospective clinical multicenter research was carried out from August 2007 to October 2011. SSNHL patients aged between 18 to 65 years old and accepted no medication were recruited, with a duration less than two weeks. The patients were divided into four types according to the hearing curve: type A was acute SSNHL in low tone frequencies, type B was acute SSNHL in high tone frequencies, type C was acute SSNHL in all frequencies, and type D was total deafness. Each type was subdivided into two groups by the accompaniment of SEF or not. And each type had four different treatment programs, based on the unified designed randomized table. All patients were followed up for four weeks from the initial examination.

RESULTSA total of 1 024 cases with single side SSNHL were recruited in the study from 33 hospitals in China, including 565 cases accompanied with FEF (55.18%), and 459 cases without FEF (44.82%). By classification of audiogram, 205 cases were type A (20.20%), of whom 122 were accompanied with FEF (59.51%); 141 cases belonged to type B (13.77%), of whom 74 were accompanied with FEF (52.48%); 402 cases were type C (39.25%), of whom 229 were accompanied with FEF (56.97%); and 276 cases were classified as type D (26.95%), of whom 140 were accompanied with FEF (50.72%). No significant difference was observed in total effective rate between the SSNHL patients accompanied with FEF or not in four acoustic types (P > 0.05). Among four acoustic types, the clinical cure rate of patients accompanied with FEF in type A was 93.44%, ranking the first; followed by 84.28% for type C; 75.71% for type D; and 70.27% for type B, respectively.

CONCLUSIONSThe therapeutic effect for patients accompanied with FEF in type A is satisfactory. The presence of FEF do not impact the therapeutic effect for SSNHL patients.

Objective    To explore the key points and difficulties of intraoperative frozen section diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. Methods    The intraoperative frozen section and postoperative paraffin section results of pulmonary nodule patients in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2021 to January 2022 were collected. The main causes of misdiagnosis in frozen section diagnosis were analyzed, and the main points of diagnosis and differential diagnosis were summarized. Results    According to the inclusion criteria, a total of 1 263 frozen section diagnosis results of 1 178 patients were included in the study, including 475 males and 703 females, with an average age of 58.7 (23-86) years. In 1 263 frozen section diagnosis results, the correct diagnosis rate was 95.65%, and the misdiagnosis rate was 4.35%. There were 55 misdiagnoses, including 18 (3.44%) invasive adenocarcinoma, 17 (5.82%) adenocarcinoma in situ, 7 (35.00%) mucinous adenocarcinoma, 4 (2.09%) minimally invasive adenocarcinoma, 3 (100.00%) IgG4 related diseases, 2 (66.67%) mucinous adenocarcinoma in situ, 1 (16.67%) atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, 1 (14.29%) sclerosing pulmonary cell tumor, 1 (33.33%) bronchiolar adenoma, and 1 (100.00%) papillary adenoma. Conclusion    Intraoperative frozen section diagnosis still has its limitations. Clinicians need to make a comprehensive judgment based on imaging examination and clinical experience.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a non-coated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on zika virus envelope (E) protein for detecting the expression of E protein in infected cells. METHODS: Adherent Vero-143 cells infected with zika virus in a 96-well plate were fixed, and the antibodies against zika virus E protein were added at an optimized concentration to establish the non-coated ELISA method for E protein. The antiviral activities of lignans compound C1 was evaluated using this method. The accuracy of this non-coated ELISA was verified by RT-PCR, and the cross reaction with dengue virus was assessed. RESULTS: After optimization, the background absorbance at 450 nm of uninfected cells was reduced to about 0.20. The antiviral activities of lignans compound C1 detected by this method were basically consistent with the results of RT-PCR. No cross reaction with dengue virus was found in this assay. CONCLUSIONS A non- coated ELISA method based on zika virus E protein was established, which can be used for screening antiviral agents against zika virus.
