METHODS: 60 cases were divided into two groups A and B randomly.30 cases in group A were treated with Fuzheng Jiedu Granule combined with western medicine Betaloc and Isosorbide Dinirrate;30 cases in group B were given only western medicine.The period of treatment was 4 weeks.Another 15 healthy cases selected as group C(healthy control group).Before and after treatment,the clinical effects were observed,meanwhile,some biochemical indexes such as CK,LDH,Na~+-K~+-ATPase,Ca~(2+)-ATPase in RBC membrane,NO,NOS,Ni in serum were measured with clinic test methods.Finally,the experimental results were compared and analyzed in the three groups mentioned above. RESULTS: The therapeutic effect of symptoms and signs of group A was superior to that of group B(P

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of Fuzheng Yiliu Granule on the expression of CD44v6 and nm23-H1 in esophageal carcinoma treated with radiotherapy. METHODS: Sixty-three cases of esophageal carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups: Fuzheng Yiliu Granule plus radiotherapy treated group (n=30) and radiotherapy treated group (n=33). The carcinoma specimens were obtained through endoscopic biopsy before and after twenty-one days of treatment. The expression of CD44v6 and nm23-H1 was determined in the sixty-three specimens of esophageal carcinoma by immunohistochemical SABC methods. RESULTS: After twenty-one days of treatment, the positive rates of CD44v6 in the Fuzheng Yiliu Granule plus radiotherapy treated group and the radiotherapy treated group were 40.0% and 69.7%, respectively, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The positive rates of nm23-H1 in the Fuzheng Yiliu Granule plus radiotherapy treated group and the radiotherapy treated group were 20.0% and 21.2%, respectively, and the difference was not significant between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Fuzheng Yiliu Granule can lower the expression of CD44v6 in esophageal carcinoma, and may prevent infiltration and lymph node metastasis of esophageal carcinoma.

Objective To observe the preventive and therapeutic effects of Sagittara Sagittifolia L. Xiao-Zhi Pills on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in rats. Methods Rat NASH models were established and the rats were divided randomly into five groups: the normal group, model group, high-dosage group and low-dosage groups of the treatment, and Dongbao Gantai positive drug group. Histopathological changes of the liver were observed. The levels of MDA, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and NO (nitric oxide) in the liver homogenate were determined. Expressions of cyclooxygenase-2 (cox-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the liver were determined with immunohistochemical technique. Results In model group, extensive adipose degeneration and inflammatory cell infiltration were found in the liver. Compared with those in normal group, SOD activities in model group were obviously decreased (P<0.01), the contents of MDA and NO were obviously increased (P<0.01), and the expressions of cox-2 and iNOS proteins were obviously increased (P<0.01). Compared with those in model group, the activities of SOD in treatment groups were obviously increased (P<0.01), the contents of MDA and NO were obviously decreased (P<0.01), and the expressions of COX-2 and iNOS proteins were obviously decreased (P<0.01). The effect of high-dosage group was more obvious than that of Dongbao Gantai group (P<0.05). Conclusion Sagittara Sagittifolia L. Xiao-Zhi Pills can effectively prevent and treat nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in rats, and its mechanism may be associated with ameliorating hepatocellular steatosis, removing the free radicals and enhancing the anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation capability.

Peripheral nerve injury is very common in clinics. It has brought the patients with high rate of disability and huge economic burden and become one of serious health problems in the world. Nowadays, with the development of nerve tissue engineering, it provides new method for surgical procedures of nerve defects repair.The nerve scaffold plays a vital role in repairing nerve defects. It can provide temporary support for nerve cells to grow,adhere and to form structures. This review aims at introducing classification, properties and the applications of the nerve scaffolds for tissue engineering. Future development of the nerve scaffolds and remaining problems are discussed as well.

Both Jianpi Wenwei and Shugan Hewei Decoctions can markedly improved the naked eye changes, histopathologic changes inhibition of Hp growth, and bile regurgitation under gastroscopy. Stereo -determination of the thickness of gastricmucosa was made before and after treatment. The result showed that thethickness was markedly increased after treatment.

Objective To evaluate the standing bending, traction and fulcrum bending radiographies in the prediction of scoliosis correction. Methods 27 patients with thoracic scoliosis with an average of 16.4 years old were selected for the evaluation. All the patients were treated with the posterior correction and bone grafting fusion, and fixed with the third generation system of the segmental vertebral fixation, such as TSRH, CD, or CD+Horizon. Measurement of the Cobbs angle was carried out in the preoperative posterior anterior radiographies with the natural position, standing bending, traction and fulcrum bending and in the postoperative posterior anterior radiographies. Results Mean of Cobbs angle at the thoracic curve after operation was 31 degrees, which decreased significantly in comparison with the preoperative data. Average correction rate was 51.6%. The postoperative Cobbs angle at the thoracic curve was positively correlated with the preoperative Cobbs angle in the standing bending, traction and fulcrum bending radiographies. It was significantly different from the preoperative Cobbs angle in the standing bending and traction radiographies, while no difference was seen with the fulcrum bending radiography. Conclusion The fulcrum radiography can be used to evaluate the flexibility of the thoracic scoliosis, and is better than the standing bending and traction radiographies. The three methods should be used together for the analysis of the scoliosis to predict the result of the scoliosis correction.

BACKGROUND: Theories concerning the pathogenesis of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) are various, such as blood supply dysfunction, lipid metabolism disorder, increased intraosseous pressure, osteocyte apoptosis, gene polymorphism and immunity, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.OBJECTIVE: To review the pathogenesis of ONFH, thus providing clues for the study on ONFH.METHODS: Search strategy femoral head necrosis OR osteonecrosis of femoral head AND pathogenesis OR mechanism was used to search articles published between 1985 to 2017 in PubMed, Embase, and Medline databases.Meanwhile, CNKI, WanFang and VIP databases were searched with Chinese keywords of femoral head necrosis,pathogenesis from 1985 to 2017. Finally, 39 articles were included for retrospective analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: ONFH is a complex disease caused by a variety of factors, among which, biomechanics plays an important role in its occurrence and development. The internal mechanic strength of the femoral head is reduced or the imbalance between external stress and inner structures of femoral head caused by various risk factors leads to micro-fractures of the trabeculae, stress concentration and repeated destruction and repair. When the destruction rate exceeds the repair speed, the femoral heads eventually collapse. Most of ONFH cases are sporadic, but its familial aggregation has been reported; therefore, it may be related with genetic factor.
