In recent years,with the deepening research on autoinflammatory diseases (AID),more and more diseases have been found and included in the AID category.The clinical manifestations of AID are various,but most of them are not specific.Therefore,it is difficult to distinguish AID from infectious diseases,tumors and other autoimmune diseases,which causes misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis.This article aims at discussing about the clinical diagnosis and treatment procedure of AID.

The atrio-ventricular valves of the normal heart in 200 Chinese cadavers of different ages were studied. The right atrioventricular valves were classified into three types and the left were classified into two types, according to the number of the main cusps. It was found that percentage of the second type (53.5%) of the right atrio-ventricular valves was higher than that of the first type (43.5%) and the first type (83.0%) of the left atrio-ventricular valves is in the majority, while the second type (17.0%) represents only a small percentage.An accessory cusp is situated between two main cusps. The accessory cusp was found in the right atrio-ventricular valves of 132 cases (66.0%), the majority of which had only one accessory cusp (95 cases. 72.0%), and among them there were 65 cases (37.4%) in which antero-medial accessory cusps were present. The accessory cusps were found in the left atrio-ventricular valves of 103 cases (51.5%), most of them also had only one cusp (92 cases 89.3%) and among them there were 71 cases (62.3) in which postero-medial accessory cusps were present.If the total number of the main and the accessory cusps was considered, in the right ventriculus, four cusps were found in 40.5% of the cases, five in 29.0%, three in 19.5%, six in 9.0%, two in 1.5%, seven in 0.5%; while in the left ventriculus, three cusps were found in 51.5% of the cases, two in 37.0%, four in 11.0% and five in 0.5%.The size of the valves was measured. In the right ventriculus the postero-medial valve is the broadest (40.1 mm), the postero-lateral valve is the highest (24.5 mm). In the left ventriculus the postero-lateral valve is the broadest (36.9 mm), the antero-medial valve is the hightest (20.8 mm). The associated valves are usually larger than the other common main valves, the diameters of which are larger than that of the accessory valves. The perimeter of left artrio-ventricular ring is 79.69 mm and the right is 97.79 mm.

Spontaneous abortion is one of the most common gestational conditions, with the morbidity of 1% to 5% in married women. It is a serious problem troubling women at the reproductive age. There are many factors causing spontaneous abortion, among them, spontaneous abortion resulting from endocrine abnormalities can be detected and treated. Prolactin is a major endocrine hormone participating in reproductive regulation and playing an important role in early pregnancy implantation and pregnancy maintenance. When there are unusual levels it is closely related to spontaneous abortion, leading to a necessity to further study the relationship between them. International and domestic research developments in recent years about the correlation between prolactin and spontaneous abortion are discussed in this paper.

According to existing problems in polysaccharide determination methods in new Chinese drug applications, the method suitability, chemical reference selection, components interference and method research were introduced. The author suggests that suitable determination method should be selected according to the structure and property of the polysaccharide, and validated. Some influent factors should be examined to assure the accuracy of the method, such as the stability and using amount of the visualizing reagent, visualizing time, maximum detection wavelength etc. Monosaccharide and other water soluble components should be removed from polysaccharide sample, and suitable reference substance and detection wavelength should be selected. It should pay attention to mutual interference of neutral and acidic saccharide, and use inhibitor to eliminate the interference. Because the slopes of the standard curves are different for different monosaccharide, it is proposed that the types and ratios of the monosaccharide in heteroglycan should be understood, and mixed reference substance solution in the ratio is prepared for determination.

Acupuncture is an important method to cure diseases in TCM.which has been extensively accepted.Acupuncture manipulation is a key point for good clinical curative effect because different manipulations can bring out different organic reactions.The author summarized clinical experience on acupuncture manipulations for acupuncturists to improve medical effects.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the worst digestive malignancies characterized by non-specific symptoms, rapid progression and high mortality. Despite great efforts that have been made in basic and clinical research, the prognosis remains poor with an overall 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. Complete surgical resection is the only curative treatment option, but the curative resectabillty is still about 15% in China. Pancreatic surgery is considered one of the most techni-cally demanding and challenging procedures. The development of pancreatic surgery in China depends not only on the progress in surgical techniques, but also the specialization on pancreatic surgery. There has been advancement in combined therapy with a modern interdisciplinary approach including chemotherapy,radiotherapy, biotherapy and thermotherapy. The research pro-gress of gene therapy on pancreatic cancer showed us some hopes for the future. The outcome of pancreatic cancer treated by Chinese medicine with herbal drugs is encouraging, but still needs the support of more solid evidences from randomized con-trolled trials. It is suggested that the combined therapy should play an important role in the treatment of pancreatic cancer, and the fallow-up should be paid more attention.

Gastric cancer is a malignant tumor with the second highest incidence and mortality in the world, and China is one of the countries with the highest incidence of gastric cancer in the world. Research on the regulation of cell cycle protein can provide effective evidence for the mechanism of tumor and gene therapy.G1/S phase is the key point for cell cycle regulation,Cyclin D1 and CDK4 gene and P16 play important roles in this phase and have great correlation with gastric cancer,but the exact relationship between these genes and gastric cancer is still unclear. In order to better understand the expression of Cyclin D1 and CDK4 gene and P16 in gastric cancer, the related researches in recent years were summarized in this paper.

Scoliosis surgery includes fusion and non-fusion techniques.Fusion technique includes posterior fusion technique and video-assisted anterior thoracoscopic fusion.Non-fusion technique is suitable for children patients with growing potential of the spine.It includes growing rod,vertical expandable prosthetic titanium rib(VEPTR),U-shape screw,and multi-vertebral wedged osteotomy(for severely rigid scoliosis).Short term outcome from these techniques has been encouraging,but medium and long term outcomes are still need investigation.

Serial cryostat sections of five hearts and seven atria of rats were prepared. Falck's fluorescent histochemical method, and histological staining methods wereutilized in succession on the same section. Small intensely fluorescent cells in rat's heart are round, oval or polyhedral in shape. A few of them possess processes. These cells are found in the heart in four major forms: dense spheroid groups, loosely associated clusters, linear alignment, and isolated cells.The number of small intensely fluorescent cell varies between 442-664 cells in the adult rat's heart. 86-92% of them are localized in subepicardium of atrium, especially several areas on the dorsum of atrium. No small intensely fluorescent cell was found in endocardium. The rest of these cells are scattered in other parts of the heart. The distribution areas of atrial nerve ganglia and small intensely fluorescent cells in subepicardium are similar. There are no such cells in some atrial ganglia and there is no relation between the number of these cells in the ganglion and its size. Parts of these cells are often found near the blood vessels. Small intensely fluorescent cells are not morphologically associated with the conduction system in the rat.
