Objective:To observe the clinical effect of electroacupuncture (EA) plus self-made Jiawei Jinhuanggao (Supplemented Golden Yellow Paste) for gouty arthritis.Methods:A total of 80 cases with gouty arthritis were randomly allocated into an observation group (n=40) and a Western medication group (n=40). Cases in the observation group received EA and external application of self-madeJiawei Jinhuanggao(Supplemented Golden Yellow Paste), whereas cases in the Western medication group took Colchicine and Allopurinol tablets orally. After 10 d of treatment, the pain, joint swelling and uric acid in blood were observed. In addition, the follow-up was conducted 6 months after end of the treatment to evaluate the long-term effect.Results:After treatment, there were no between-group statistical differences in pain and uric acid in blood (P>0.05); and there were between-group statistical differences in joint swelling and relapse rate (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 97.5% in the observation group, versus 95.0% in the Western medication group, showing no statistical difference (P>0.05).Conclusion:EA plus Jiawei Jinhuanggao (Supplemented Golden Yellow Paste) has safe and long-term efficacy for gouty arthritis efficacy.

Irradiation induced tumorigenesis is a complicated process involving several phases such as initiating, promoting and progressing, just like the tumorigenesis induced by other factors. While irradiation induced tumorigenesis has its particularity on molecular mechanism, though the precise process remain unclear. Generally, irradiation can cause serious damage on DNA, which may bring irreversible consequences. For example, the double strand breaks (DSB) can induce the mismatch repair reaction, resulting in mutation of some specific genes or chromosomes in irradiated cells. The mutagenesis then make for the activation of oncogene, inactivation of tumor suppressor gene, uncontrolled cell proliferation and alterations of signal transduction pathway, all these work together to promote tumorigenesis. In addition, the gene instability, cytoplast mutation and cell group by stand effects induced by irradiation also play crucial roles in the process of tumorigenesis. [

Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of microscope assisted nasal transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection. Methods: pituitary tumor patients in our hospital from March 2011 to May 2013 were enrolled and divided into observation group given microscope assisted nasal transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection and control group given oral-nasal septum-sphenoid sinus pituitary tumor resection according to different operation mode. Then stress level, curative effect related index and complications were observed and compared with existing research. Results: (1) Adrenaline, noradrenaline, rennin, angiotensin Ⅱlevel and operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time of observation group were lower than control group, cases of hormone levels return to normal and improve were more than control group, complication cases were less than control group. (2)compared with the existing research on nerve endoscopic surgery, operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time and cases of hormone levels return to normal, improve and complications of observation group had no statistical difference. Conclusion:microscope assisted nasal transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection is helpful to reduce surgery trauma, relieve stress condition and can achieve equal operation effect and complications.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture plus herbal-partitioned moxibustion in treating temporomandibular joint disorder.MethodNinety patientswith temporomandibular joint disorder were randomized into a treatment group of 45 cases and a control group of 45 cases. The treatment group was intervened by electroacupuncture plus herbal-partitioned moxibustion, while the control group was by medication. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after 3 treatment courses by a specially-assigned person.ResultThe recovery rate and total effective rate were respectively 64.4% and 97.8% in the treatment group versus 37.8% and 82.2% in the control group, andthe total effective rate and recovery rate in the treatment group were significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05); regarding the comparison of the efficacy and treatment duration of the recovered subjects, the recovery rates at the end of the 1st course, 2nd course and 3rd course in the treatment group were all markedly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), indicating that electroacupuncture plus herbal-partitioned moxibustion can shorten the period of treatment for temporomandibular joint disorder. The therapeutic efficacy of the treatment group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.05).ConclusionElectroacupuncture plus herbal-partitioned moxibustion can produce a significant efficacy in treating temporomandibular joint disorder.

In early stage of the severe acute pancreatitis, mediators of inflammation make the permeability of the microcirculation blood vessel increasing and more fluidify aggregates in tissue space. Pancreatic tissue is dropsical and necrotic ; a great quantity of body fluid accumulates in abdominal cavity, which induce utility circulation volume and returned blood volume decreasing rapidly. As more and more utility circulation volume decreases, the blood current of the coronary arterY is insufficient and the cardiac muscle cell is ischemic, the cardiac muscle is suffering injury to different extent. The cardiac load is overweight relatively. The cardiac muscle fiber is prolonged and interchanged idand cardiac muscle cellular membrane is damaged. The chain reaction and magnification of the mediators of inflammation let body delivery generous cell factors such as TNF-α,interleukin, oxygen free radical and so on, which make cardiac muscle cell's integrality damage,apoptosis,cardiac functional disturbance even exhaustion. In addition, abdominal compartment syndrome,pancreatitis associated ascetic fluid and electrolyte disturbances etc are also the important factors that affect the development of the disease.

Objective To investigate the relationship between vessel cancer embolus with other clinicopathological features and tumor tissue KRAS gene mutation in the patients with colorectal cancer and its significance to colorectal cancer prognosis.Methods The postoperative clinicopathological data in 182 patients with colorectal cancer during 2011-2014 were retrospectively analyzed and the patients were followed up.Results Forty-five cases showed vessel cancer embolus positive of colorectal cancer,which had the rrelationship with the lymph node metastasis,pathological differentiation degree,liver metastasis,nerve infiltration and increase of CEA and CA199 levels,while had no relationship with the age,sex,tumor size,infiltration depth and pathological type.The 3-year survival rate was 51.1% in the vessel cancer embolus positive group,which was significantly lower than 61.3% in the negative group (P<0.05).However,the 3-year survival rate had no statistically significant difference between the vessel cancer embolus positive complicating KRAS gene mutation group and the vessel cancer embolus positive group(P>0.05).Conclusion Vessel cancer embolus decreases the 3-year survival rate and affects the prognosis in the patients with colorectal cancer.The survival rate in complicating KRAS gene mutation is similar.

The people died from H5N1 avian influenza virus,which was diagnosed by serological test.The remarkable pathohistology change is as follows:thick and homogeneous things dyed red can be seen on the face of pulmonary alveoli;the alveolar septum become wider and there are a lot of inflammatory cells in the pulmonary alveoli.Above all,we think that the histology changes can provide evidence to help coroners identify people died from H5N1 avian influenza virus or not.

BRAFV600E mutation is the most common genetic alteration in the papillary thyroid carcinoma.It plays an important role in the tumorigenesis,invasiveness and metastasis of the papillary thyroid carcinoma.Testing of BRAFV600E mutation is of great value in diagnosis,which also can be used as a prognostic maker of papillary thyroid cancer.Inhibitors treatment targeted to BRAF kinase and its downstream effectors is a new area in the treatment of BRAFV600E mutated thyroid cancer.

TSH suppression therapy plays an important role in differentiated thyroid carcinoma. It can lower mortality and recurrence rate in high risk patients. Meanwhile, it also has potential side effects on cardiovascular and skeletal systems. Thus, TSH suppressive therapy should be individualized in regard to its possible benefit and potential adverse effects.
