Up to 90 % of multiple myeloma patients can develop to osteolytic lesions. Although the conventional X radiography can only demonstrate the lytic bone disease when 30 % of the trabecular bone loss, it still remains the gold standard of the staging procedure of newly diagnosed myeloma patients. CT scans are more sensitive than X radiography for detecting small lytic lesions. MRI or CT is the choice of diagnosis to assess suspected cord compression. Technicium-99m bone scan in patients with myeloma usually underestimate the extent of bone damage. Treatments of myeloma bone disease include bisphosphonate therapy, novel targeted agents, surgical intervention and radiation therapy.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of two components in aspirin and phenobarbital pow-ders.Methods:AThermoBDSC18column(250mm×4.6mm,5μm)wasusedwithacetonitrile-methanol-0.01mol·L-1KH2PO4so-lution -triethylamine(10∶35∶55∶0.1)(adjusting pH to 3.5 with phosphoric acid )as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 1.0 ml· min-1 and the detection wavelength was 242nm. The column temperature was ambient and the injection volume was 20 μl. Results:There was a good linear relationship when the content of aspirin and phenobarbital was within the range of 0. 402 0 ~1. 608 0 mg· ml-1(r=0.999 7) and 0.061 2 ~0.244 8 mg·ml-1(r =0.999 6), respectively. The average recovery was 99.21%(RSD =0. 49%,n=9) and 99. 63% (RSD=0. 39%,n=9), respectively. Conclusion:The method is simple and accurate with good repro-ducibility, and can be used to control the quality of the preparation.

Real-time three-dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE) has been validated for its accurate diagnoses and quantitave mearsurement of mitral valve disease,which could act as a guide in selecting the proper therapeutic strategy for each individual in clinical setting.In this article,the recent research achievements on RT-3DE in mitral valve disease were summarized,and the application of RT-3DE in surgical approach to mitral valve disease was discussed as well.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) can cause irreversible severe visual impairment.At present,a large number of basic and clinical research has documented several effective treatment for wet AMD.As for dry AMD,so far there is no effective therapy and preventive measure.Dry AMD probably worse for macular choroidal neovascularization (CNV) or geographic atrophy (GA) to its later stage,resulting in severe visual impairment.In recent years,some promising treatment strategies are emerging,mainly in the prevention of the damage of photoreceptor and retinal pigment epithelium,such as drug therapy,laser photocoagulation,surgery,plasma exchange,stem cell transplantation and gene therapy.These therapies are expected to be able to bring hope for arresting the development of dry AMD.This article reviews the current researches and possible future management of dry AMD.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of the irreversible vision loss in population over 55 years of age.With the increasingly serious problem of aging,the prevalence of AMD is rising year by year.However,as the pathogenesis of dry AMD is largely unknown,the effective therapy still is lack.Given that there was a lack of proper animal models,it brought about obstacles to researches about molecular mechanism underlying dry AMD.Nowadays,lots of murine models of dry AMD have been established and developed,which provide suitable tools for relevant researches.But,different dry AM D models show varied pathogenesis features,and a reasonable choice of models is very important for different studies.The characteristics of different dry models were reviewed in this article.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of depression in hemodialysis patients with end‐stage renal disease(ESRD) , and evaluate its related factors .Methods One hundred and twenty four ESRD patients undergoing hemodialysis were assessed by using Beck depression inventory (BDI) .Baseline characteristics and laboratory test items were compared between depression group and non‐depression group .Results The prevalence of depression detected by BDI was 56 .5% in hemodialysis patients with ESRD . Gender and occupational status were statistically different between depression and non‐depression groups(P<0 .05) .Higher preva‐lence was found among female and non‐working patients .However ,there was no difference on age ,hemodialysis time ,education , marriage and incoming(P>0 .05) between the two groups .In laboratory test ,the white blood cell and urine acid levels in depression group were significant higher than that in the non‐depression group(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Depression is prevalent in ESRD pa‐tients undergoing hemodialysis ,especially in female and non‐working patients and always combined with higher white blood cells and urine acid levels .

Objective:To investigate the effect of sonodynamic therapy with hematoporphrin on the expression of VEGF in Chick Chorioallantoic Membrane and provide experimental basis for appling sonodynamic therapy(SDT)on anti-angiogenesis in tumor therapy.Methods:The hatching eggs cultured for 7 days were randomly divided into 4 groups:blank control group,ultrasound group,hematoporphrin group,sonodynamic therapy group.The express of VEGF in CAM was detected by immunity histochemistry.Result:There were significant differences between control group and ultrasound group(P0.05),conclusion The results show that sonodynamic therapy with hematoporphrin has a significant inhibitionary effect on the express of VEGF in CAM and this maybe is the most important mechanism of its anti-angiogenesis effect.

Objective:This study explores Achenbach's three famous checklists regarding to children's behavior problems:CBCL,YSR,TRF.The checklists are translated into Chinese and tested for their relativity and applicability.Methods:1410 adolescents selected from 6 middle schools in Beijing are investigated with CBCL,YSR and TRF.Results:The Cronbach ? among the items of the three checklists and the total score are 0.96,0.95,and 0.99 respectively,the split-half reliability are 0.93,0.89,and 0.97 respectively,which demonstrates an obvious homogeneity within the three checklists.Scores in YSR are generally higher than those of the other two checklists, scores in CBCL follow immediately,and scores in TRF are the lowest(except for a minority of individual factors). The scores in CBCL and YSR are significant correlated(r=0.35～0.60,P

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the rationality of drug use in cancer patients in Tiantan Hospice Hospital.METHODS:By a retrospective study,the drug use in cancer patients in Tiantan Hospice Hospital who died during Jan.2008 and Sep.2008 were analyzed statistically.RESULTS & CONCLUSION:The drug use in cancer patients in Tiantan Hospice Hospital was rational on the whole.Step medication,oral medication,on time medication and individual medication were realized in Beijing Tiantan Hospice hospital and treatment on cancer patients in this hospital was in line with the Guideline for Cancer Pain Management Based on the Three-step Analgesic Ladder recommended by WHO.

Objective To investigate the causes and characteristic of placental abruption.Methods Clincal data of 52 patients with placental abruption were retrospectively analyzed.Results Compared with other incentives,gestational hypertension disease(especially in the severe group)had a significant difference (P ＜ 0.05),but in this group of materials due to placental premature rupture caused by placental abruption are light;on two groups of children to mode of delivery were compared,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) ;on two groups of maternal postpartum were compared,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) ; the two group of fetuses were compared,the difference was statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05).On 7 cases of fetal asphyxia of active treatment were cured.Conclusion In order to further reduce the incidence of placental abruption should the knowledge of this disease is caused take seriously,strengthen to the prevention of the disease as well as publicity and education,and further improve the prenatal diagnosis and treatment level,as the child 's life to provide security protection.
