Objective: To observe the influence of electroacupuncture on depression and defects of neurological functions in the patients with post-stroke depression. Methods: 90 cases of the apoplectic patients confirmed clinically by CT or MRI were selected and divided randomly into three groups by digital table, 30 cases in each group. All three groups of the patients were treated for wind stroke, with electric stimulation added for the acupuncture group,Fluoxetine added for medication group, and placebo added for control group, continuously for 60 d. Results: Compared to the control group, the scores in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and Modified Edinburgh-Scandinavia Stroke Scale (MESSS) decreased in the electroacupuncture group and medication group, and the scores in Barthel index increased (P＜0.05). The general therapeutic effects were better in the electroacupuncture group and medication group than in the control group, and the general therapeutic effects were similar in the electroacupuncture group and medication group. Conclusion: Eiectroacupuncture can improve depressive behavior and promote rehabilitation of the nervous functions.

METHODS The growth inhibition of TNP 470 on Lovo cells was evaluated by an MTT.assay The effect of TNP 470 on cell cycle and apoptosis measured by flow cytometry, and ultrastructural feature of Lovo cells were observed with electromicroscope. RESULTS TNP 470 inhibited the growth of Lovo cells. flow cytometry analysis showed that G 0/G 1 phase rate was increased but S phase rate was decreased. Apoptosis rate of TNP 470 treated group was significant high than that of control and typical chang of apoptosis in Lovo cells was observed. CONCLUSION TNP 470 can inhibit proliferation of Lovo cells, and this inhibition is associated with cell cycle block and apoptosis.

Objective This study aimed at assessing the long-term efficacy of EVL for esophageal variceal bleeding. Methods Long-term EVL was assessed in 263 patients with variceal bleeding,among them 71 were of Child- Pugh Class A,82 of Class B and 110 of Class C.EVL was repeated at two week intervals until varices were eradicated.Results Esophageal varices were eradicated in 91% of the 238 patients who survived for more than three months after 1 to 10 (average 4) successive ligations.Recurrent variceal bleeding occurred in 15% of the 263 patients and was markedly reduced after eradication of the varices.The overall cumulative survival rates at 1,3,and 5 years were 76%,62%,and 57%,respectively.The prognosis was influenced by Child- Pugh's risk grade.56 of the 263 patients died during the study period,and the major cause of death was liver failure.Conclusion EVL is effective for long-term control of esophageal variceal bleeding.Repeated EVL re- duces rebleeding rate and improves survival in patients who have bled from esophageal varices.

Objective To assess the effect and safety of mono and combination of intravenous flurbiprofen axetil (FP) and epidural tramadol on postoperative pain after cesarean section. Methods Eighty parturients undergoing selected cesarean section with combined epidural spinal anesthesia were randomly allocated into 4 groups (n=20 in each): Group FT treated with intravenous FP 50 mg immediately after the umbilical cord was clamped (T1) and epidural tramadol at the time of suturing peritonaeum (T2);Group FF treated with intravenous FP 50 mg at T1 and T2;Group T treated with epidural tramadol 100 mg at T2, and Group F treated with FP 50 mg at T2. Postoperative pain was assessed by parturients using visual analog scales (VAS) at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h after surgery. The cases that patients required rescued analgesia were recorded as well as the times of analgesics administration. The events of nausea and vomiting within 24 hours as well as the time of first breast-feeding were observed. Results All groups were similar in VAS at 2 hours after surgery, but were statistically significant different at 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours. Group FF showed significant lower VAS than the other 3 groups. However, no significant difference of VAS was observed among the other 3 groups. Rescued analgesia was administered once after surgery to 7 cases in Group F, 4 in Group T, and 2 in Group FT. No patient in Group FF required rescued analgesia. There was significant difference in the rate of rescued analgesia post surgery among the 4 groups (P=0.0149). No significance in the incidence of nausea and vomiting was observed in 4 groups. There was no significant difference in the time of first breast-feeding after surgery in the 4 groups (F=0.54,P=0.657). Conclusions Intravenous flurbiprofen axetil administration immediately after the umbilical cord is clamped and at the time of closing peritonaeum in cesarean section could relieve postoperative pain and reduce postoperative rescue analgesic requirement without increasing the incidence of nausea and vomiting.

Objective To evaluate the anesthesia and perioperative treatment for simultaneous liver-kidney-pancreas transplantation. Methods The preoperative preparation included improvement of the hepatic function, alleviation of uremia and control of blood glucose level. General anesthesia was employed and maintained with isoflurane combined with intermittent intravenous administration of midazolam, fentanyl and vecuronium. Dopamine and low dose of epinephrine were used to maintain arterial blood pressure if necessary. The parameters of blood coagulation, the indexes of hepatic and renal function, blood glucose and amylase levels in blood and urine were surveyed regularly. The treatment was adjusted according to the results of tests mentioned above. Results The circulation was stable and blood gas was normal in the course of surgery. The concentration of blood glucose was higher at the end of the operation than that of pre-operation. Normal hepatic and pancreatic function was achieved about a week after operation, while the renal function showed no satisfactory improvement. The patient was given hemodialysis until the second transplantation of kidney. Three days later, the renal function recovered to normal. Up to the present, all the grafted organs showed good function. Conclusion Appropriate preoperative preparation, optimal anesthetic procedure and management, perfect protection of function of multiple organs, and maintenance of stable hemodynamics and homeostasis were the key points of successful anesthesia and management for simultaneous liver-kidney-pancreas transplantation.

Objective: To develop a computer game addiction inventory (CGAI) for Chinese college students. Methods:A primary inventory made by the authors was applied to 477 college students from 8 universities in Beijing for exploratory factor analysis, and then to 405 college students for confirmatory factor analysis. Results: After exploratory factor analysis, a questionnaire consisted of 33 items were established, which had four factors: dependence and addict behavior, emotion arousal, functional impairment, and shame and un-satisfaction. These four factors could explain 55.1 of the total variance, were confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis (?~2/df=2.304; IFI=0.885; CFI=0.884; NFI=0.813; RSMEA=0.057). The internal consistency of the questionnaire was good (r=0.77~0.94), the test-retest reliability was 0.907. Criteria validity shown by higher scores in addiction group than normal control was also satisfying. Conclusion: The CGAI has good psychometric features and could be applied to college students.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of lanthanum carbonate in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in uremic patients underwent maintenance hemodialysis. METHODS:A total of 142 uremic patients with hyperphosphatemia under-went maintenance hemodialysis were selected from Xinqiao Hospital of Third Military Medical University and Chongqing Banan District Hospital of TCM during Jan. 2012-Dec. 2016. They were given Lanthanum carbonate chewable tablets with initial dose of 250 mg,tid,when serum phosphate level ranged 1.78-2.26 mmol/L or with initial dose of 500 mg,tid,when serum phosphate lev-el was >2.26 mmol/L. Drug dosage was adjusted according the level of serum phosphate during treatment. After 1,2,3 months of treatment,the levels of serum phosphate,serum calcium,albumin,parathyroid hormone(PTH)and alkaline phosphatase were de-tected and the corrected product of serum calcium and calcium phosphorus was calculated. The occurrence of ADR was observed. RESULTS:After 1,2,3 months of treatment,the levels of serum phosphate and the product of serum calcium and calcium phos-phorus were all decreased significantly compared to before trreatment,with statistical significance (P<0.05). After 3 months of treatment,the level of corrected serum calcium was decreased significantly compared to before treatment,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the levels of plasma albumin,calcium phosphorus or PTH before and af-ter treatment (P>0.05). Total response rate was 93.7%. There were 19 cases of patients with mild adverse reactions. CONCLU-SIONS:Lanthanum carbonate in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in uremic patients underwent maintenance hemodialysis shows good clinical response rate,can significantly reduce the levels of serum phosphate and the product of serum calcium and calcium phosphorus with good safety.
