Objective To establish the quality standard of Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules. Method Rhizoma curcuma, flos sophorae, cornus officinalis and gamdir vine in Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules were identified by TLC. The content of gastrodin in Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules was determined by HPLC. Results The TLC spots were highly clear without the interference of negative samples and were reproductive. A good linear for gastrodin was in the range of 14～70 ?g/mL (r=0.999 9). The average recovery was 97.33% (RSD=0.63%). Conclusion This method is simple, rapid and accurate, and can be used for the quality control of Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules.

BACKGROUND:Problems can occur at the donor site where the autologous tendon graft is taken. Alogenic tissue has become an important graft option for the reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament.
OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical curative effect and immune rejection of arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament by alogeneic tendon graft.
METHODS:The 120 included patients with anterior cruciate ligament injury were randomized into autologous tendon graft and alogeneic tendon graft groups, respectively, with 60 patients in each group. The autologous semitendinosus-gracilis graft at the affected side or the alogeneic anterior cruciate ligament was implanted into the knee joint in autologous tendon graft group or alogeneic tendon graft group, respectively. Lachman test results, Lysholm and Larson scores of joint function, and postoperative immune rejection were observed and assessed during 2-year folow-up.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Lysholm and Larson scores in autologous tendon graft and alogeneic tendon graft groups were significantly increased after the reconstruction compared with before the reconstruction; however, there was no difference in the scores between both two groups at 2 years after the reconstruction (P > 0.05). At the end of the folow-up, the normal function of the knee joint was restored, and no lag and flexion constraint of the knee joint were observed. No significant differences were observed in Lachman test results between both groups (P> 0.05). Compared with the autologous tendon graft group, immune rejection rates were higher in the alogeneic tendon graft group; however, no significant differences were observed between both groups (P > 0.05). In summary, the alogeneic tendon graft may be a candidate for the reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament due to its similar clinical curative effect to the autologous tendon graft and low immune rejection rates.

Objective To evaluate the function of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and other clinical indexes to forcast ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Method Collecting the serum and follicular fluid (FF) of 42 cases in the in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) cycles and then analysis the relationship of the clinical and detected indexes between the OHSS (10 cases) and the non-OHSS (32 cases). Results The concentration of VEGF in FF?E 2 on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injection, basal luteinizing hormone (LH) and the number of ovum retried much higher in the OHSS than in the non-OHSS. Conclusions The concentration of VEGF in FF of OHSS cases is higher than that of controls, supporting the role of VEGF as a mediator of OHSS. Therefore VEGF in FF is a forcast index of OHSS.

ObjectiveTo discuss the influence on diagn osing of femoral vein reflux by using the different ultrasound Doppler probing points. MethodsUsing pulse wave(PW) and color Doppler flow imaging, 134 femoral veins in 67 cases of lower limb varicosity were detected at 3 different probing points to check up the deep venous reflux after Valsava maneuver. The ultrasonographic data were compared with the results of venous DSA and operation to analyze the influence on diagnosis. ResultsThe reflux data obtained from the upper point of superficial femoral vein was most correlative with the results of DSA and operation. ConclusionsThe PW is a satisfactory technique in diagnosing the femoral reflux, and the upper point of superficial femoral vein is a most reasonable probing point.

Objective: To investigate the effect of F.nucleatum(Fn) and P. gingivalis(Pg) on soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1) in peri-implant sulcular fluid(PISF).Methods: PCR was used to detect microorganism samples from PISF. According to detection of Fn and Pg, 51 titanium implants in 32 partly edentulous patients were divided into 3 groups. Clinical parameters included PD, mPLI and sICAM-1. Periopaper strips were used to collect PISF and an ELISA technique was applied to measure the levels of sICAM-1. Results: PD was significantly greater in the patients with Pg and/or Fn than that in those without Pg or Fn (P

Pollution and control of microcystins released during the toxic bloom was reviewed in the present paper. As a risk factor in safety assessment, microcystins aroused broad attention. It was a topic of general interest that how to control microcystins reproduction and how to enhance the degradation of microcystins in the water treatment procedure. Based on the state of China, it was considered that a combined method of biological, physical and chemical treatment should be the best way to control microcystins pollution in drinking water.

Objective To evaluate the appl ication of CT perfusion in intra-axia l disease. Methods By applying a nuclear medicine data processi ng technique to the time-density data obtained from dynamic CT, cerebral tissue perfusion was p e rformed in 8 cases, 4 with normal findings, 2 with ischemic cerebrovascular dise ase, and 2 with gliomas. Cerebral blood perfusion maps was created and analyzed, absolute regional cerebral blood volume, regional cerebral blood flow, and mean transit time were determined and analyzed as well. Results Wit h regard to var ious degrees of perfusion impairment within the ischemic territory, thus giving rise to a very heterogenous appearance. As a rule, the center of a lesion usuall y representing the core of ischemia showed marked reduction of blood flow. At th e outer margin of a tumor area, the reduction of CBF and CBV was often less pron ounced, indicating some residual flow via collaterals, as was confirmed by the b olus delay on the time to peak time. Conclusion In the near fut ure, functional imaging techniques should have a major impact on therapeutic decision-making i n acute stroke patients, perfusion CT may be recommended even now for emergency applications in daily patient care due to its practicability.
