Objective To study the effect and adverse drug reaction (ADR) of Diazepam when used to treat acute alcoholism for establishing its rational use. Methods According to the administration of the drug through different routes, 158 patients admitted from Jan. 2000 to Jan. 2006 were divided into two groups- intramuscular group (i.m., n=91) and intravenous group (i.v., n=67). There was no significant difference in age, sex, amount of liquor taken, time of seeing doctor, and drug dosage between the two groups. The effect and adverse drug reaction (ADR) of Diazepam were statistically analyzed. Results No ADR occurred in i.m. group and the effective rate was 92.31%. Although the effective rate in i.v. group was 100%, 3 patients suffered from cardiac arrest, 2 patients were found to have aspiration and apnea suddenly, and the ratio of ADR was 7.46%. Conclusion It is better to use intramuscular injection rather than intravenous injection in treating acute alcoholism with Diazepam, in order to avoid the serious medical incidents.

Objectives To observe the effect of the nourishing kidney and dispersing stagnated hepatoqi decoction (NKD) on symptoms and sex hormone of polycystic ovary syndrome patients with renal deficiency and hepatic stagnation. Methods Fifty six patients were divided into two groups:the NKD group (30 cases, treated with the NKD), and the Diane-35 group (26 cases, treated with Diane-35). Condition of menstruation, acne, hairiness and side effects were observed. The follicle figures and ovary volume were recorded, and the sex hormone were detected before and after treatment. Results Two patients were pregnancy in NKD group. After treatment, the condition of menstrual disorder and acne were improved significantly in both groups (P

In recent years the loss of humanity spirit in medicine has been the undeniable fact,which accordingly pro-vokes criticisms from patients and media.To reshape the perfect image of medical circle,it is pressing to transcend theutilitarianism of medical education , enhance the humanity education and develope the spirit of humanity.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy o f microvascular deco mpression in the management of primary trigeminal neuralgia.Methods We review ed 13 patients with unilateral primary trigeminal neuralgia treated by microvasc ular decompression. Conventional spin-echo (SE) sequence and 3-D fast inflow wit h steady-state precession (3-D-FISP) sequence MRI scans were used preoperatively to find evidence of neurovascular compression. The operation was accessed by re trosigmoidal approach and the nerve root was separated away from pressure vessel s by artificial vascular patch.ResultsDuring operations it w as found that tr igeminal nerves were pressed on by blood vessels in all the cases (by the superi or cerebellar artery in 11 cases; by the basilar artery and the superior cerebel lar artery in 1 case; and by the vein in 1 case). Complete pain relief was achie ved in all the patients without mortality or permanent complications. Eleven pat ients were clinically followed for 6～24 months with a mean of 13 months, and no recurrence was seen. ConclusionsMicrovascular decompression is a safe and effective procedure in the treatment of primary trigeminal neuralgia.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the significance of pirif orm aperture enlarge ment in transsphnoid approach microsurgery for pituitary macroadenomas.MethodsTranssphnoidal approach microsurgery through enlarged pyrifor m aperture was ca rried out in 96 patients with pituitary macroadenoma from March 1997 to October 2000.ResultsAmong the 96 patients, 65 (67 7%) underwent tot al removal of the tumor, 25 (26 0%) underwent subtotal removal (80%～90%), and 6 (6 3%) partial removal (

Objective To investigate the significance of heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) and heat shock protein 65 (HSP65) on prognosis acute coronary syndrome (ACS) within one year.Methods Eightynine hospitalized patients were collected from department of Cardiovascular disease,the people's hospital of Wuxi city affiliated of Nanjing Medical University and the Second People's Hospital Wuxi City from November 2009 to February 2011,and divided into ACS group (n =50),stable angina pectoris (SAP) group (n =19) and nonCHD group(n =20).HSP60,HSP65 levels in human serum were measured at the time of admission.The followup records of all patients were established to observe the occurrence of coronary events during one year,and analyzed its relationship between with HSP60,HSP65.Results Eighty-four cases were successful followed-up,and lost cases were 5.Eighteen patients occurred cardiovascular events within one year,and their content of serum HSP60 and HSP65 were significantly higher than that of without cardiovascular events (HSP60:(1026.19 ± 253.47) ng/L vs.(845.75 ± 138.52) ng/L,t =2.49,P ＜ 0.05 ; HSP65:(2573.95 ± 768.75) ng/L vs.(2076.38 ± 385.46) ng/L,t =2.58,P ＜ 0.05).In ACS group,the level of serum HSP60 and HSP65 of the patients occurred cardiovascular events was significant higher than that of without cardiovascular events,and there was significant difference(HSP60:(1162.73 ±249.14) ng/L vs.(892.55 ±204.62) ng/L,t =2.19,P ＜ 0.05 ; HSP65:(2714.39 ± 738.44) ng/L vs.(2136.85 ± 472.62) ng/L,t =2.65,P ＜ 0.05).COX regression analysis showed that HSP65 was an independent risk factor for recent cardiovascular events in patients with ACS (RR =1.002,95％CI 1.000-1.004,P =0.035).Conclusion The detection of HSP60,HSP65 in prognostic coronary artery disease prognosis has important value,and HSP65 was an independent risk predictor of ACS in recent cardiovascular events within one year.

Objective To explore the effect of the transplantation of intact follicle by punching with syringe needle on defect eyebrow reconstruction.Methods Fifty-two patients with eyebrow defects due to burn,trauma,resection and inappropriate eyebrow trimming were recruited,35 with bilateral defects and 17 with unilateral defect.The scalps strips from the safe donor area or temporal region were taken and made into 1 to 2 cm long hair with intact follicle under 3 fold magnifier.The recipient area was punched with 21G or 22G syringe needle.Then the hair shaft was clamped with mi croforceps and the follicles were transplanted to the defective area.Results Folliculitis were found in two burn patients after the transplantation and cured by alcohol inunction.Hairs of the rest patients transplanted grew well.The direction and appearance were satisfied.The survival rate of hair was more than 90 ％.Conclusions It is feasible to restore the partial eyebrow defect by intact follicular transplantation by punching with syringe needle and clamping the hair shaft with microforceps.

Objective To investigate the relationships between fetal neural tube defects (NTD) and maternal plasma homocysteine (Hcy) level,total nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS) activity.Methods A total of 28 pregnant women with clinically or prenatal ultrasound diagnosed NTD offspring in Shihezi City and its surrounding areas of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 6,2008 to May 23,2011 were enrolled as NTD group.Another 41 normal pregnant women,matched in corresponding area and period,were enrolled as the control group.The plasma level of Hcy was determined by rate method,and the activities of total NOS and iNOS were detected by spectrophotometry.Linear correlation analysis and t-test were used as statistical method.Results The plasma level of Hcy in NTD group was higher than that in the control group with statistically significant difference [(15.2±7.9) μmol/L vs (8.4±3.7) μmol/L,t=4.269,P＜0.01].The activity of total NOS was lower in the NTD group than that in the control group [(20.0±9.0) U/ml vs (26.0±4.1) U/ml,t=3.258],so was the activity of iNOS [(7.5±2.9) U/ml vs (12.0±4.5) U/ml,t=4.670],the differences were statistically significant (both P＜0.01).Linear correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between the level of Hcy and the activity of total NOS (r=0.325,P＜0.01),but no correlation was found with iNOS (r=0.205,P＞0.05).Conclusions High level of Hcy and low activity of NOS and iNOS might be correlated with fetal NTD.

Objective To investigate the effects of Aktl gene knockout on pain behavior induced by chronic constriction injury model of sciatic nerve (CCI).Methods C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into Akt1 knockout group (KO group,n=12),wild type group(WT group,n=12).All mice were made model of CCI in the right sciatic nerve.Each mouse received tests of the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) and the paw withdrawal thermal latency(PWTL) at the times of 1d before and 1 d,3 d,5 d,7 d,10 d,14 d,17 d,21 d after surgery.Results For both KO group and WT group,the basic values of PMWT(right(0.89±0.15)g,(0.87±0.15)g; left(0.97±0.19) g,(1.05±0.14) g,P＞0.05) and PWTL(right (7.64±0.71) s,(7.56±0.68) s ;left: (7.67±0.6) s,(7.64±0.64) s,P＞0.05) showed no significantly statistical difference.Compared with WT group and the basic value,PWMT and PWTL were significantly decreased after surgery in KO group (P＜0.05).The PWMT and P WTL of the left paw in KO group and WT group had no obvious statistical difference (P＞0.05).However,the PWMT and PWTL of the right paw significantly decreased in the two groups compared with left paw.Conclusion h aggravates the neuropathic pain induced by CCI in mice when the Akt1 gene was knocked out.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Akt3 gene knockout on neuropathic pain behaviors induced by chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve (CCI).MethodsExperiment was divided into two groups:Akt3 knockout group (Akt3-/-,n =12),wild type group (WT,n =12 ).Randomly numbered,the right sciatic nerve of mice were received the operation of chronic constriction injury.Paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT)and paw withdrawal thermal latency (PWTL) were tested on day 1 before operation and day 1,3,5,7,10,14,17,21 afterCCI.ResultsThe basic values of PWMT(right:(1.09±0.20)g,(1.17±0.22)g;left:(1.17±0.15)g,(1.22±0.23)g,P＞0.05) andPWTL(right:(6.18±1.11)s,(6.20±1.25)s;left:(5.82±0.91)s,(5.92± 1.71 ) s,P ＞ 0.05 ) had no statistically significant differences between two groups.On day 1 after operation,compared with basic values,the PWMT and PWTL of the right paw in both Akt3-/- group and WT group decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.05 ),and at least lasted up to day 21.The PWMT( 3d:(0.42 ± 0.22 ) g,(0.72 ± 0.36) g ; 17d:(0.29 ±0.15)g,(0.49 ±0.19) g;21d:(0.27 ±0.18)g,(0.56 ±0.15)g,P＜0.05) and PWTL(5d:(2.43 ±0.68)s,(3.13±0.52)s;17d:(2.43±1.26)s,(3.84±1.29)s ;21d:(2.14±1.23)s,(4.07±1.26)s,P＜0.05 ) of the right paw in Akt3-/- group was significantly lower than those in WT group.The PWMT and PWTL of the left paw in Akt3-/- group and WT group had no obvious differences (P ＞ 0.05 ). However.compared to left paw,the PWMT and PWTL of the right paw of the two groups were obviously lower (P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionThe neuropathic pain induced by CCI increased in Akt3 gene knockout mice.
