Objective Sum up the therapentic action of external fixator in limb compound fiacture and comminuted fracture to improve the cure rate. Methods Select the external fixator in renson. Small extremitas superior and inferior. Results 264 cases patient, 224 cases follow up, heal rate over 84.8%. Conclusion Advantage for parenchyma repair and fracture heal.

OBJECTIVETo explore the anti-inflammatory effect and possible mechanism of Xiaochaihu Decoction (XCHD) and the different herbal formulations of its components.

METHODSRat model of pleuritis was established by thoracic injecting 0.2 ml of 1% carrageenan. Rats in the treated groups were medicated with XCHD (11 g/kg) and the different herbal formulations of its components respectively as follows: thorowax root-scutellaria root (A, 3.5 g/kg), fresh ginger-pinellia tuber (B, 3 g/kg), ginseng-licorice root-jujube (C, 4.5 g/kg), A + B (6.5 g/kg), A + C (8 g/kg) and B + C (7.5 g/kg), and those in the normal group and the model group were given equal volume of instilled water, by way of gastrogavage for successive 5 days. Modeling was performed 2 hrs after the last medication. The amount of pleurorrhea, and leucocyte (WBC), marrow peroxidase (MPO), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) in pleurorrhea, and serum level of interleukin-8 (IL-8) were measured 12 hrs after modeling.

RESULTSAs compared with the model group, all the parameters measured were lower in all the treated group (P < 0.05) , and IL-1beta content in pleurorrhea in the XCHD group and Group A, B and C were significantly lower (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONXCHD and the different herbal formulations have obvious anti-inflammatory effect, showing certain preventive and therapeutic effect on pleuritis. Among the different formulations, the XCHD, A, B and C had better effects. The effects might be related to inhibiting the increase of cytokines as TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-8 to suppress the activation, infiltration and wandering of leucocytes.

Surgery is currently the most appropriate treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Increasing unilateral or bilateral multiple primary lung cancer being found, segmentectomy has attracted wide attention for its unique advantages in the treatment for such tumors. Ground glass opacity dominant early-stage NSCLC is associated with a good prognosis and can be cured by segmentectomy, however, the treatment of solid-dominant NSCLC remains controversial owing to the invasive nature. With the in-depth study on the lymph node metastasis pathway, radiological characteristics and molecular biology of NSCLC, a large part of solid nodules with certain characteristics can also be cured by segmentectomy. This paper reviews the research status and progress about the indication of segmentectomy.
