20?10 9/L) were 12 (8-20), 17(10-28) and 21 days (7-78), respectively. The average follow-up period was 7 3 years(ranged from 1 month to 14 years). The overall survival (OS) and death rates after transplantation were 70%(18/26) and 30%(8/26) respectively. Transplant-related mortality was 7 7%(2/26). Conclusion The combination of chemotherapy and G-CSF is an effective and low toxicity protocol for the mobilization of peripheral blood stem cells. APBSCT can be safely performed in children with malignant tumors.

Object To develop a capillary GC-MS analytical method for identification and deter- mination of ginkgolide A, B, C and bilobalide (GA, GB, GC and BB) in Ginkgo biloba L. leaves. Methods The leave samples were extracted in ultrasonic bath with ethanol-water (20∶80). The extract was purified by liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate followed by solid-phase extraction on a column mixed with acid Al 2O 3, active carbon and celite. The terpenes were trimethylsilylated by BSTFA (with 1% TMCS) for 60 min at 100 ℃ and determined by GC-MS with HP-5 MS capillary column in the selected-ion monitoring mode. The intense fragment ions were chosen as monitoring ions for quantitative analysis. Cholesterol was used as an internal standard. Column temperature gradient: initial temperature 180 ℃, maintained 1 min, and then increased at 20 ℃/min to 260 ℃, and finally at 2 ℃/min up to 300 ℃, maintained 2 min. Results The retention times of GA, GB, GC and BB were 13.7,14.3,15.3 and 6.8 min, the major fragmentation ions (monitoring) were at m/z 537, 625, 713 and 455 (299), the average recoveries of GA, GB, GC and BB were 102.0%, 99.4%, 96.0%, 96.3%, RSD were 0.54%, 2.40%, 1.98% and 2.43%, respectively. Conclusion This method is repeatable, specific, accurate and easy to operate. It is adoptable for quality and quantity analysis of terpene lactones from G. biloba leaves.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of laparoscopic surgery on gynecologic malignancies,providing information for the clinical therapy.Methods 35 patients with gynecologic malignancies treated with laparoscopic surgery were selected as the observation group.While 35 cases of abdominal surgery patients were selected as control group at the same period.The incidence of postoperative complications,survival rate and other conditions of the two groups were observed and compared.Results The operation time of laparoscopic surgery group was longer than open surgery group,no significant difference between the two groups(P ＞ 0.05 ).Blood loss,hospital slay and recovery time of body temperature of the laparoscopic surgery group was significantly lower than open surgery group ( P ＜0,05).2 cases had urinary retention,1 urinary tract infection and 1 deep vein thrombosis occured in observation group; while 3 urinary retention cases,1 intestinal obstruction case,1 deep vein thrombosis case,1 abdominal wound infection case occured in control group,and the difference was significant ( P ＜ 0.05 ).2 patients lost in each group.3-year survival rate of laparoscopic surgery group was similar with open surgery,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant( P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion Excision and pelvic lymph node dissection under laparoscopy is an effective method in treatment of gynecologic cancer,and with less trauma and faster recovery.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical efficacy of 131I in the treatment of hyperthyroidism.METHODS:131I therapy for 784 cases of hyperthyroidism was analyzed retrospectively.The dose of 131I(?Ci) was calculated with formula:?Ci=the weight of thyroid(g)?80-120(?Ci?g-1)/the highest absorbed iodine rate(%).Clinical efficacy was evaluated according to the results.RESULTS:394 cases were relieved completely after once therapy,523 cases after twice therapies and 547 cases after three times of therapies.577 patients were visited at random and 94.80% of them were cured.Early-stage toxic reaction had been found in 46 cases with incidence of 7.97%.Hyperthyroidism crisis had not been developed.Temporary hypothyroidism had been found in 68 cases with incidence of 11.79%,while permanent hypothyroidism had been found in 146 cases with incidence of 25.30%.CONCLUSION:131I has an obvious effect on hyperthyroidism with one disadvantage of high incidence of hyperthyroidism.However,131I is an effective therapy which is safe,economical,simple and convenient.

This study was aimed to estimate the effect of different ProDisc-C arthroplasty designs after it was implanted to C5-C6 cervicalspine. Finite element (FE) model of intact C5-C6 segments including the vertebrae and disc was developed and validated. Ball-and-socket artificial disc prosthesis model (ProDisc-C, Synthes) was implanted into the validated FE model and the curvature of the ProDisc-C prosthesis was varied. All models were loaded with compressed force 74 N and the pure moment of 1.8 Nm along flexion-extension and bilateral bending and axial torsion separately. The results indicated that the variation in the curvature of ball and socket configuration would influence the range of motion in flexion/extension, while there were not apparently differences under other conditions of loads. The method increasing the curvature will solve the stress concentration of the polyethylene, but it will also bring adverse outcomes, such as facet joint force increasing and ligament tension increasing. Therefore, the design of artificial discs should be considered comprehensively to reserve the range of motion as well as to avoid the adverse problems, so as not to affect the long-term clinical results.

This study investigated the effect of prolonged walking with load carriage on body posture, muscle fatigue, heart rate and blood pressure of the tested subjects. Ten healthy volunteers performed 30 min walking trials on treadmill (speed = 1.1 m/s) with different backpack loads [0% body weight (BW), 10% BW, 15% BW and 20% BW]. The change of body posture, muscle fatigue, heart rate and blood pressure before and after walking and the recovery of muscle fatigue during the rest time (0, 5, 10 and 15 min) were collected using the Bortec AMT-8 and the NDI Optotrak Certus. Results showed that the forward trunk and head angle, muscle fatigue, heart rate and blood pressure increased with the increasing backpack loads and bearing time. With the 20% BW load, the forward angle, muscle fatigue and systolic pressure were significantly higher than with lighter weights. No significantly increased heart rate and diastolic pressure were found. Decreased muscle fatigue was found after removing the backpack in each load trial. But the recovery of the person with 20% BW load was slower than that of 0% BW, 10% BW and 15% BW. These findings indicated that the upper limit of backpack loads for college-aged students should be between 15% BW and 20% BW according to muscle fatigue and forward angle. It is suggested that backpack loads should be restricted to no more than 15% BW for walks of up to 30 min duration to avoid irreversible muscle fatigue.
