Objective: To evaluate the effect of flotation therapy on the attention of undergraduates. Method: Subjects were 53 undergraduates (26 male, 27 female). They were randomly divided into 5 groups. Group 1,2,3 and group 4 were flotation groups and group 5 was control group. Each subject finished four therapies. Visual attention attribution and diversion (T5) and bilateral two- choice reaction time (T8) were used as the indexes. Result: As a whole, the T5 and T8 times of the subjects in the flotation groups were shortened in the course of the therapy. The promotion of attention in the male subjects was better than that in the female subjects. There was no significant difference between the changes of bilateral two-choice reaction time. The promotion in the flotation subjects was significantly better than that in the control subjects and it could not be explained totally by practice effect. Conclusion: The attention of the subjects can be promoted by flotation therapy. This study could not support the assumption that flotation therapy could promote the function of right brain as some prior studies declared.

Objective To retrospective analysis of the clinical effect and complications of the semi-laminectomy approach on the treatment of intra-spinal tumor.To summarize the endoscopic treatment experience of intra-spinal tumor.Methods To retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 24 cases with intra-spinal tumor in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 2008 to September 2015.The diagnosis of the intra-spinal tumor was confirmed by preoperative MRI examination.Intraoperative application of endoscopic surgery in the resection of tumor.Longterm followed up of patient was implemented and observe the efficacy and complications after surgery.Results Postoperative symptoms of all patients have different degrees of improvement,the degrees of sensory disorder was reduce,the limb muscle strength was increased and alleviate the damages of nerve electrophysiology.No serious complications were found after operation.Of the 24 patients,17 cases were total resection of the tumor and 7 cases were subtoal resection of the tumor.Tethered cord release was operated in patients with tethered spinal cord.Conclusions Endoscopic resection assisted semi-laminectomy approach of intra-spinal tumor has slight damage to the surround structures and the impact to the anatomy of the spine was small.Endoscopic assisted semi-laminectomy approach may have siginficant clinical effect on intra-spinal tumor,and have good security.

Aberrant promoter methylation in special genes such as tumor suppressor genes is early eventin carcinogenesis of lung cancer. Aberrant methylation, resulting in corresponding mRNA silence or overexpression , closely relates to carcinogenesis, development, treatment response and prognosis of lung cancer and it may become a potential biomarker. Methylation of special genes may provide evidences for individual treatment of lung cancers.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of exercise cupping plus acupuncture in treating acute lumbar sprain. Method Sixty-four patients with acute lumbar sprain were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 32 cases each. The treatment group received exercise cupping plus acupuncture and the control group, acupuncture alone. After one treatment and one course of treatment, the therapeutic effects were evaluated using the VAS for pain, lumbar joint activity and the clinical effect assessment. Result After one course of treatment, the total efficacy rate was 96.9% in the treatment group, which was significantly higher than 84.4% in the control group (P<0.05). After one treatment and one course of treatment, the VAS score was significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05) and lumbar joint activity improved significantly in the treatment group compared with the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Exercise cupping plus acupuncture is more effective than acupuncture alone in treating acute lumbar sprain.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of interventional embolization in the treatment of intractable hematuria after percutaneous nephrolithotripsy.

All patients were treated with conservative treatment but invalid,then lesion was confirmed by renal artery angiography,after that,line embosphere micro?spheres or polyvinyl alcohol particles combined with spring ring interventional the treatment was conduc?ted. Postoperative urine color changes, postoperative complications and follow?up were observed whether have bleeding again. Results ( 1) The success rate:36 cases patients all with successful embolization,the symptoms of hematuria in 1?3 days gradually disappeared,and the effective rate was 100%. ( 2) Complications:the compli?cations after operation in 10 patients appeared different degree of embolism syndrome,given analgesic and antie?metic,the symptoms gradually ease after treatment. One case patient with a transient increase of creatinine after operation,renal function returned to normal 7 days after the treatment. ( 3) Follow up:there was no recurrence of hemorrhage after 3?6 months of follow?up. Conclusion Transcatheter embolization in the treatment of intracta?ble hematuria has definite curative effect,less trauma,high safety,less complications and faster postoperative re?covery.

Objective · To evaluate the clinical characteristics of endometrial pathology in postmenopausal women with asymptomatic thickened endometrium. Methods · A retrospective review was conducted of the patients between October 2013 and October 2015 in the International Peace Maternity & Child Health Hospital. The postmenopausal women with asymptomatic thickened endometrium of 5 mm or more found by transvaginal ultrasonography were recruited. They underwent hysteroscopy and endometrial sampling to analyze the relationship between endometrial pathology and endometrial thickness. Results · A total of 257 patients were recruited. The average age was 61.3 years old, the average menopause period was 122 months, and the average endometrium thickness was 8.6 mm. The endometrial pathology included normal atrophic endometrium, endometrial polyp, submucous myoma, intrauterine adhesion, uterine septum, endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer. The most common pathological type was endometrial polyp, accounting for 66.9% of the all patients and 83.9% (172/205) of all pathological types. Three cases of adenocarcinoma (1.2%) were diagnosed. There was significant difference in endometrial thickness among normal endometrium, endometrial polyp and endometrial cancer (P<0.05). The endometrium in endometrial cancer was the thickest, which was (13.20±5.38) mm averagely. There was significant difference in ages among the pathological types (P=0.004). Conclusion · There are few patients of malignancy among asymptomatic postmenopausal women with thickened endometrium. Follow-up visits were recommended to these women.
