Graves' disease,the most common disorder of hyperthyroidism,is an autoimmune disease related with autoantibody (TRAb),with the specific mechanism remaining incompletely understood.The therapies for Graves disease include three conventional methods:anti-thyroid drugs,radioiodine and surgery.Only treatment with anti-thyroid drugs is aimed at the immune factor;they can eliminate TRAb and lead to recovery ultimately.Literatures have drumed in that treatment with anti-thyroid drugs was a basic therapy for Graves' diseases,and they were the first choice to cure hyperthyroidism all over the world (except for the U.S.A).The drugs do not destroy the structure of thyroid follicle,and are safe and efficient;moreover,their effect is reversible and therefore do not cause permanent damage to the thyroid.Anti-thyroid drugs not only can be used alone,it also can be used before radioiodine or surgery.ATA chairman professor Cooper(NEJM,2005) propounded a therapy path for Graves' disease,which is helpful for clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the cause-related marketing strategy in pharmaceutical industry.METHODS:The theory of cause-related marketing was introduced and the cause-related marketing pattern was illustrated with examples.RESULTS&CONCLUSION:Pharmaceutical enterprises can achieve win-win effect in both economic returns and social effects by selecting suitable public welfare projects and applying cause-related marketing.

Objective: To measure the convergence angles of teeth in different teeth positions and different denture designs.Methods:Mesio-distal widths and labio-lingual widths were measured on 226 teeth according to three points in a line on three surfaces (gingival, middle and incise) of each tooth.The distance between every point and the counterpart point in the adjacent surface was measured.Then convergence angles were calculated. Results:The means of the angles were 4.13°±0.77°,4.14°±0.76°, 4.46°±0.95°, 4.76°±0.84° on the first and second premolar, the first and second molar,respectively . There were significant differences between the premolars and molars(P<0.05).On the dentures with the designs of monocrown, triunit-bridge and long bridge the means of the angles were 3.78°±0.74°,4.69°±0.75° and 5.08°±0.85° respectively,the angle on the denture with the design of monocrown was smaller than that of bridge (P<0.05).Conclusion:The convergence angles are different according to different teeth positions and different denture designs, so they should be adjusted according to the clinical requirements.

Objective To evaluate endovascular aortic repair for retrograde Stanford type A aortic dissection with an entry tear in the descending aorta.Methods From April 2006 to Dec 2012,31 patients with retrograde type A aortic dissection were treated with endovascular technique.22 patients had pleural effusion,14 patients had patent false lumen in the ascending aorta.Emergency operation was performed in 2 patients with acute right renal artery and right common iliac artery ischemia respectively.29 patients received endovascular treatment after 3 weeks conservative treatment.Chimney technique was used in 3 patients.Results All procedures were technically successful without severe complications.Ascending aorta recovered 1-3 months after operation.Pleural effusion subsided 3 days to 3 weeks after endovascular treatment.During follow-up of (31 ± 18) months,no severe complications developed,all the stent-grafts placed by chimney technique were patent.Conclusions Endovascular aortic repair can be used in the treatment of retrograde Stanford type A aortic dissection.Chimney technique can be used to reconstruct supra-aortic branches.

OBJECTIVE:To study the new factor for marketing competition of pharmaceutical enterprises-CSI.METHO_DS:Analysis was based on the domestic and foreign documents,and combined with the actual situations of pharmaceutical enterprises in China.RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:Only by increasing the level of CSI and establishing the CS ideas,do the medical enterprises succeed in the furiously competitive market.

OBJECTIVE: To study relation between the packaging of pharmaceutical products and the safety of drug use. METHODS: Analysis was based on the relevant documents, and combined with the actual situations in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSION: Only by selecting the appropriate packaging materials, controlling the packaging process effectively and man- aging the package labels, will the safety of drug use be ensured.

Toll-like receptor( TLR) ,which belongs to pattern recognition receptor,is type I transmem-brane glycoprotein. TLR activates natural immune and induces several cytokines. Foreign studies have showed that bacterial infection is closely related with TLR. In this paper,the relationship between TLR and bacterial in-fection is reviewd.

Objective To investigate effect of Hongjingtian injection adjuvant therapy on blood glucose, blood lipid and clinical efficacy in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods 40 cases of acute cerebral infarction in our hospital were randomly divided into control group and experimental group.20 cases in control group were treated with routine treatment, 20 cases in experimental group were treated on the basis of control group by Hongjingtian injection.Fasting blood glucose, blood lipids and clinical efficacy were compared post-treatment.Results Compared with pre-treatment, the level of LDL-C and TC in control group was lower(P <0.05), the levels of FBG, TC, TG and LDL-C in experimental group were lower (P <0.05), and the HDL-C level was higher (P<0.05).Compared with control group, the levels of LDL-C, TG, TC and FBG in experimental group were lower (P<0.05), and the HDL-C level was higher (P<0.05).The total effective rate of experimental group (95.00%) was higher than control group (65.00%)(P<0.05).Conclusion Hongjingtian injection can decrease the level of fasting blood glucose in patients with acute cerebral infarction and decrease serum TG, TC, LDL-C level, increase the level of HDL-C, improve the clinical efficacy, and have a guiding significance for clinical.

Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells play important roles in the treatment of solid tumors.In particular,they have broad application prospects for the patients with recurrence or metastasis.Although recently CIK treatment strategy has achieved encouraging results in preclinical studies,there are still some difficulties in the clinical applications.Some key issues remain to be resolved,such as how to ensure that the antitumor immune effector can be a lot of amplified and can stay longer in the body,how to selectively kill tumor cells,and how to ensure the security of application.

AIM: Studies reveal that, cytokines play an important role in the process of various inflammatory reaction, wound repair and cell mutation, also, cytokines are expected to be a novel indicator of ratiocinating wound time. This study was designed to explore the changes in gene expression of interlukin-1? (IL-1?) and interlukin-1? (IL-1?) during the skin wound healing process in mice at different phases. METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the laboratory of Forensic Medicine Department of China Criminal Police University from March 2006 to December 2007. ①Thirty-five BALB/c inbred male white mice of cleaning grade, aged 25-27 g, were used in this study. ②Skin wound model was induced by injuries in the area of 1.0 cm away from two sides of spinal column, without affection on muscles. Three pairs of injuries were established in each mouse. Five animals were decapitated under anesthesia at 0, 3, 6, 12 hours and 1, 3, 6 days, respectively, whereas those at 0 hour were taken as controls. ③The white blood cells at different phases were observed under microscope after immunochemical staining. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction method was applied to detect gene expression of IL-1? and IL-1?. RESULTS: Thirty-five BALB-c inbred male white mice were all involved in the result analysis. ①Skin wound was weakly positive during 0-5 hours after injury; the positive reaction was attenuated during 6-24 hours, and positive cells increased, of which macrophages were dominant. Infiltration of massive leucocyte neutrophils and a small quantity of mononuclear cells were detectable at 1 day; mononuclear cells increased during 2-4 days, and reached a peak at 3 days. In control group, the epidermis, folliculus pili, glandulae sebaceae and coil gland were all weakly positive. ②IL-1? and IL-1? were expressed at early phase after injury, and two expressing peaks were found at 6 and 72 hours, then decreased to normalized levels at 6 days after injury. CONCLUSION: Genet expression of IL-1? and IL-1? in damaged tissues has a regularity with wound time, and can be used for reference to estimate early injury age in forensic cases.
