Objective:To observe the ratio of the syndrome of deficiency in origin to the syndrome of excess in superficiality in chronic renal failure(CRF)and co-existent states,and to analyze the relationship between TCM syndrome types and related biochemical indexes.Methods:TCM syndrome differentiation was carried out and related biochemical indexes were determined in 146 cases of CRF.The data were compared and analyzed with single factor analysis of variance between groups.Results:(1)Deficiency of both qi and yin of spleen and kidney was the most frequently-appeared type in the deficiency syndrome,and damp-heat syndrome was the most frequently-appeared type in the excess syndrome;(2)Serum creatinine(SCr)and blood uria nitrogen(BUN)in the patient of damp-turbid syndrome in the excess syndrome were significantly higher than those in the patient of damp-heat and blood stasis syndrome;(3)Fibrin in the patient of blood stasis was significantly higher than that in damp-heat syndrome and damp-turbid syndrome.Conclusion:Generation and development of CRF are closely related with dampness syndrome,usually marked by syndrome of damp-turbid,damp-heat,blood stasis,damp-stagnation,and was mainly related with abnormal renal function and hemorheologic indexes in the biochemical indexes.

Objective To evaluate clinical effects of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine therapy for epilepsy after stroke. Methods Literatures about the treatment of epilepsy after stroke with the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine which come from the database such as CNKI, VIP, WanFang and Pubmed, were studied and all the randomized controlled trials on comparing therapeutic effects of treating epilepsy between combined treatment of TCM and western medicine and western medicine were enrolled. The Cochrane Collaboration's software RevMan 5 was used for meta-analysis. Results 7 articles were included in the study, there is homogeneity among these articles(P>0.05), The fixed effect model was used for the meta analysis. the combined results were OR=5.17, 95%CI(3.02, 8.82), the overall effect of test Z=6.01, P<0.01, the difference between the treatment group and the control groups was significant, that means the overall effect of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine treatment was better than western medicine treatment; Funnel plot graphic displayed asymmetrically, which indicated the literatures publication bias. Conclusion The current data indicate that the curative effect of TCM and west medicine combined treatment is better than pure western medicine therapy for epilepsy after stroke, but as the literature publication bias, clinical studies need more high quality large samples to prove this conclusion.

Objective To evaluate the application and risk of hematogenous tumor dissemination of intraoperative autologous blood salvage on radical nephrectomy for renal carcinoma with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus.Methods Between July 1999 and October 2005,19 patients with renal cell carcinoma invading inferior vena cava were used by the intraoperative autologous blood salvage.Preoperative and postoperative clinical data were analyzed and compared.The blood sparing effect and follow-up were evaluated.Results The intraoperative autologous blood salvage of all cases was successful.The levels of HCT,Hb and RBC on the 1st and 7th postoperative day were significantly lower than preoperative day.Although the level of PLT decreased on the 1st postoperative day,it recovered on the 7th day.The markers of liver and renal function did not change during treat time.Packed red blood cells were collected during surgery with a mean value of 1 765 ml(300～6 000 ml) per patient.The average amount of allogenic transfusion per patient was 2 247ml(0～8000 ml).The perioperative mortality rate was 10.5%(2/19).The postoperative metastasis rate was 35.3%(6/17).No difference was found in the prognosis between two groups.Conclusion The intraoperative autologous blood salvage does not markedly change the clinic test data and not increase the recurrence and metastasis of renal cell carcinoma.

ObjectiveTo investigate the possible effect of interleukin-1β(IL-1β)in experimental retinal detachment,and the role in proliferation.MethodsThe experimental retinal detachment and reattachment in different time were made using Sprague-Dawley rats. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in neuro-retina was tested with flow cytometry at different time. IL-1β in neuro-retina were analyzed by labeling with polyclonal IL-1β antibody. The level of IL-1β in neuro-retina were tested with radio-immune method. IL-1β antibody 1000 ng,IL-1Ra 20 ng were injected in the subretinal space of some rats before PCNA reached to its high point respectively,and the expression of PCNA of them were compared with that of control which were injected with 0.01 M PBS.ResultsIL-1β expressed in Muller cell,astrocyte,vascular endothelial cell in neuro-retina and reached to its peak at the 7th day after detachment,then declined and continued at a low level as long as the retina detached.The expression of PCNA began at the second day after detachment, and reached a maximum at about 10 days after,then declined and continued at a low level as long as the retina detached. IL-1βantibody and IL-1Ra could restrain the expression of PCNA.ConclusionProinflammatory cytokine IL-1β is the key factor in proliferation of experimental retinal detachment.

Objective To validate the clinical effect of evidence-based nursing on early rehablilitation of patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PTCA and intracoronary stenting. Methods 47 patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PTCA and intracoronary stenting were divided into the nursing group(24 cases)and the control group(23 cases).The nursing group received nursing with evidence-based nursing pattern while the control adopted routine nursing method. The nursing effect in the two groups was compared in the following aspects such as the incidence rate of adverse effect,average hospitalization days, athletic ability and psychological status. Results The incidenece rate of adverse effect Was lower(P＜0.05)and the average hospitalization days were shorter(P＜0.01)than those of the control group with addition of cardiovascular complications(P＞0.05).The athletic ability and psychological status were also superior to those of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Application of evidence-based nursing could hasten the rehabilitative process of patients undergoing PTCA and intracoronary stenting.

Objective To compare the effectiveness and safety of different intracranial stents assisted coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms and to discuss the selection of different stent assisted embolization of intracranial aneurysm.Methods From 2007 April to 2012 April,118 cases (a total of 128 wide-neck aneurysms) with intracranial aneurysms were analyzed retrospectively.This included the use of 70 neuroform,38 Enterprise,and 20 Solitaire AB stents forthe treatment of intracranial aneurysms.The successful use,aneurysm occlusion at the immediate post-operation,and early period of peri-operative complications were recorded from those clinical data in order to assess the effectiveness and safety of the different intracranial stents,which assisted coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms.Rank sum test and x2 test were used for statistics.Results Three aneurysms assisted with Neuroform stent were planted unsuccessfully,and the Enterprise and Solitaire stents were placed successfully.The embolism results of three stents after immediate postoperative angiography aneurysm: Neuroform stent occlusion rate was 40.0％ (28/ 70),the tumor residual rate was 38.6 ％ (27/70),and the partial embolization rate was 21.4 ％ (15/70) ; The Enterprise stent occlusion rate was 42.1％ (16/38),the tumor residual rate was 36.8 ％ (14/38),and the partial embolization rate was 21.1％ (8/38).The Solitaire AB stent occlusion rate was 40.0 ％ (8/20),the tumor residual rate was 35.0 ％ (7/20),and the partial embolization rate was 25.0 ％ (5/20).There were not significant differences in aneurismal occlusion (H =0.12,P ＞ 0.05).Early peri-operative complications results were: Neuroform stent occurred in 7,Enterprise frame in 4,and Solitaire AB stent occurred in 2.There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications in the early period after coiling (x2 =0,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Three kinds of intracranial stents assisted embolization of intracranial aneurysms are applied safely and effectively.The stent may be chosen according to morphology of parent artery and stent biological character.

Objective To report a ileal ureteric replacement surgery for bilateral long segment ureter injury.Methods Data from a patient suffered bilateral long segment uretercic stenosis was reviewed.A 32-year-old female,who underwent radical surgery of cervical cancer and postoperative radiotherapy 1 year ago,complained intermittent low back pain for 11 months and was found renal function abnormality for 3 months.Ultrasound showed bilateral hydronephrosis,and the CT urography showed bilateral middle-lower ureteral stenosis.Preoperative diagnosis was bilateral hydronephrosis with bilateral ureteral obstruction.The patient underwent bilateral ileal ureteric replacement under general anesthesia.Results The surgical procedure was successful and the postoperative recovery was favorable.The operation time was 180 min,and blood loss was 100 ml.The abdominal cavity drainage tube was removed 8 days and the urinary catheter was removed 9 days postoperatively.During 8 months' follow up,the patient showed resolved flank pain with stable serum creatinine.No complication was reported.The CTU 2 months postoperatively showed the hydronephrosis was relieved with normal functioning kidneys.Conclusion Bilateral ileal ureteric replacement surgery might be an effective procedure and viable option for bilateral long segment ureteric injuries.

A Staphylococcus aureus strain, designated zfb, was isolated from a clinical bovine mastitis case of a dairy cow. Staphylococcus aureus zfb can have resistance to methicillin and no lipase contrast by ATCC 25923. The production of the capsule was assessed by the diffuse colonial morphology in serumsoft agar. A mouse infection model was used to determine the LD50 and the invasiveness of SA zfb. The LD50 of SA 25923 to experimental mice was 10-2.5/mL, and the LD50 of SA zfb to experimental mice was 10-4.33/mL. The purpose to detect characteristics of SA zfb makes it an interesting candidate for the preparation and assay of an avirulent mutants against staphylococcal infections and further investigate on pathogenic mechanism.

Objective:To analyze survival in patients with advanced oral cancer from prospective clinical trials. Methods:From 2008 to 2010, 256 patients with oral cancer at clinical stage III/IVA were randomly categorized into two groups. Patients in the experi-mental group received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, and post-operative radiation, and patients in the control group underwent surgery and post-operative radiation. All patients were routinely followed-up after treatments. Survival was analyzed using Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test, and differences were considered statistically significant at P value lower than 0.05. Results: Each group was composed of 128 patients. With the median follow-up period of 60 months, the 5-year overall survival rate was 61.7%and the disease-free survival rate was 53.9%. The overall survival rate (P=0.350) and the disease-free survival rate (P=0.160) were not sig-nificantly different between the experimental and control groups. Patients with positive pathological response to neo-adjuvant chemo-therapy exhibited significantly improved overall survival (P＜0.05). Conclusion:Radical surgery should be emphasized to improve the prognosis of oral cancer. Functional reconstruction could also improve the quality of life and survival of patients. Despite that neo-adju-vant chemotherapy could not improve the survival of patients with advanced oral cancer in entirety, it could benefit patients exhibiting positive treatment responses.

Objective To investigate the immediate brain effect of acupuncture at Fengchi using amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation(ALFF)and functional connectivity by the resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI)in patients with posterior circulation ischemia vertigo(PCIV).Methods Twenty patients with PCIV were enrolled.The dizziness handicap inventory(DHI)was used to evaluate the severity of vertigo.The patients were randomly divided into acupuncture group and sham acupoint acupuncture group.Rs-fMRI scan was performed before and after acupuncture.MATLAB-based DPABI 6.1 software was used to analyze rs-fMRI data.Correlation analysis was used between the altered ALFF values and DHI scores.The regions of altered ALFF were taken as seeds to analyze functional connectivity.Results Compared with the sham acupoint acupuncture group,the increased ALFF values were mainly located on the left precuneus,left superior frontal gyrus and left caudate nucleus after acupuncture in the acupuncture group;the decreased ALFF values were mainly located on the left cerebellum and right inferior occipital gyrus.The ALFF value of the left superior frontal gyrus was negatively correlated with the DHI score(P=0.04).The increased functional connectivity was mainly found between left precuneus and the right middle frontal gyrus,the right superior frontal gyrus,the decreased functional connectivity was mainly found between left precuneus and the bilateral paracentral lobule and right cerebellum.Conclusion The ALFF value and functional connectivity are different before and after acupuncture,indicating that the vestibular network,visual and motor brain regions functional activities are changed after needling at Fengchi,which may be the brain functional basis of Fengchi for vertigo in PCIV.
