Dimethyltrilobine iodide (DMT) 1.5 M-M increased the contractile force of isolated guinea pig left atria. This positive inotropic action could not be an-tagonized by either propranolol, cimetidine or diphen-hydramine. DMT 1.5 nM also increased the contractile force of isolated guinea pig left atria exposed to low concentration of calcium or to verapamil.

Objective To explore the occurrence and prevention and the principle of management of chylous fistula after neck dissection. Methods Retrospective research on 1750 cases of neck dissection in Henan Tumor Hospital from January 1983 to January 2005. There were 48 cases chylous fistula and 1 case chylothorax. The incidence was 2.8 %. 5 cases on the right, 44 cases on the left. 18 cases had completed radiotherapy or chemotherapy before operation. Conservative methods and surgical methods were used in the treatment. Low fat food was supplied to the patients with chylous fistula. The conservative methods was local pressure, the surgical methods was applied while maximal production of chylous exceeding 500 ml a day. Results All the patients were cured finally. The conservative method was 12.6(5~34) days, the surgical method 7.5(3~10)day. Conclusion The key to prevent chylous fistula was to band the rupture of thoracis or lymphatic duct during operation. The conservative methods could be used in patients with slight and middle chylous, when the chylous exceed 500 ml a day or the conservative methods was unavailable, the surgical methods was appropriate, it could shorten the time of tube draw.

There have appeared many new insulin analogues in recently years. Two of them are rapid-acting insulin analogues(aspart,lispro).The regions between the insulin analog molecules were modified,which have shorter time than regular human insulin in onset of action,peak,duration of acting,and are better in decreasing postprandial glucose and opportunity of hypoglycemia before next meal.The another insulin analogues were galargine and detemir.They were obtained from changing insulin isoelectric point and increasing molecular weight,which lengthen time for disintegration,absorption and action and have little absorption variation and no overt peak.They can simulate physiological base insulin excretion.

Resistant starch is not absorbed in the small intestine.But it can be fermented in the large bowel.Recent studies have confirmed the ability of resistant starch to decrease postprandial blood glucose levels,decrease serum cholesterol and triglyeride levels,and enhance the sensitivity of insulin.As such,resistant starch contributes to preventing and treating metabolic syndrome.

Objective To establish the evaluation system and explore the possible impact factors for public interest nature in public hospitals. Methods One hundred and twenty-five public hospitals in Zhejiang Province were served as sample hospitals, and related data of year 2004 to year 2006 were collected. The Delphi expert investigation method, variation coefficient method and TOPSIS method were employed to screen the impact factors for public interest nature and build up the evaluation system for public hospitals, and stepwise regression analysis was conducted for possible impact factors of public interest nature. Results The evaluation system mainly included five aspects of quantity, quality, efficiency, mean charge of medical service and social satisfaction to public hospitals. The two most important factors that influenced the public interest nature were the number of beds and the number of equipments valued above 10 000 RMB. Conclusion The hospital scale is the most important impact factor for the nature of public interest in public hospitals. Therefore, the scale of public hospitals should be properly designed so as to ensure the public interest nature in public hospitals.

Objectives To explore the clinical effect of external fixator combined antibiotic-calcium sulfate packing medullary cavity, VSD continuous drain with negative pressure and local skin flap transposition for the treatment of postoperative infected nonunion after initial debridement. Methods 20 cases of traumatic osteomyelitis from August 2012 to August 2014 were selected and taken antibiotic-calcium sulfate to focal zone. The patients were taken first-stage bone grafting for small bone defects and osteotomy for lengthening for big bone defects. For patients with cutaneous injury, local skin flap transposition was taken. For other patients with partial flap necrosis and non healing wounds, VSD continuous drain with negative pressure was taken. Results Operative incisions of 12 cases were primary healing, two cases were healing by second intention, four cases of flap were survived after local skin flap transposition, and two cases of flap were partial necrosis and healed by second intention. 11 cases of immobilization with external fixator, bone healing was satisfactory in seven cases after osteotomy for lengthening and two cases of bone delayed union in osteotomy for lengthening and recovered after bone transplantation. All patients were followed up for average 19(6-32) months with permatoplasty survived; all the infection of wounds was controlled and relapse-free. The fracture healing period was eight(4-12) month without pin site infection, osteoporosis and deformed healing. But there were 1 cases of knee stiffness and two cases stiffness of ankle joint. Conclusion After initial debridement, taken external fixator and taken antibiotic-calcium sulfate to medullary cavity and fracture ends. The patients were taken first-stage bone grafting for small bone defects and osteotomy for lengthening for big bone defects. For the skin defect after local flap grafting, taken VSD continuous drain with negative pressure for partial necrosis of flap occurred and non healing wounds cases. The method obtained prominent curative effect, reduces the treatment cycle and reduce the complications in the treatment of postoperative infected nonunion.

Objective To determine the value of 18F-FDG PET-CT in detecting the primary origin of cancer of unknown primary (CUP).Methods A total of 48 patients (age range 41-82 years,mean age of 57±16 years, 20 females) were retrospectively selected. All patients were diagnosed as CUP and were examined by 18F-FDG PET-CT scan.The patients were divided into cervical lymph node metastasis group (28 cases) and extra-cervical lymph node metastasis group (20 cases) according to different metastasis site.Sensitivity of 18F-FDG PET-CT to detect primary tumor site was compared between these two groups.Results 18F-FDG PET-CT detected primary tumors in 32 of 48 patients (66.7 ％), the cervical lymph node metastasis tumors in 22 of 28 patients (78.6 ％), and extra-cervical lymph node metastasis tumors in 10 of 20 patients (50.0 ％).There was significant difference between cervical lymph node metastasis group and extra-cervical lymph node metastasis group (x2 =4.286,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion 18F-FDG PET-CT has a high sensitivity to detect primary origin of CUP,especially for patients with cervical lymph node metastasis.
