Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of endoscopic thyroidectomy via axillo-breast approach and the cervical strap muscles. Methods From January to June 2007, endoscopic thyroidectomy was performed on 21 cases in our department via axillo-breast approach and the cervical strap muscles. The operation was carried out under general anesthesia, the anterior cervical muscles was preserved and dragged ahead if necessary. The pressure of CO2 at surgical space was set at 6-8 mm Hg.Results Endoscopic unilateral partial or subtotal thyroidectomy was completed in all the patients without converting to open surgery. No complication occurred in this series. The mean operation time was 70-120 min [mean,(88.3?19.5) min], and the mean blood loss was 2-100 ml [mean, (11.5?21.8) ml]. The drainage tube was removed at 36-48 hours after the operation. And the mean postoperative hospital stay was 2 days. A 3-month follow-up showed good outcomes in terms of sensation at the surgical region and cosmetic effect. Conclusion Endoscopic thyroidectomy via axillo-breast approach and the cervical strap muscles is feasible and safe for unilateral benign thyroid lesions.

Objective To understand current prevalence of fluorosis, of drinking tea type in Pengyang County of Ningxia to offer scientific basis for preventing and curing, monitoring, health education. Methods Four towns were chosen as investigating spots in Pengyang County of Ningxia in 2007, from each 50 children aged 8-12 year old and 50 adults who either had tea or did not were investigated. Dean method was used to measure dental fluorosis of children and adult; meanwhile fluoride content in water, urine and drinking tea was tested using the fluoride ionic electrode method and that in brick tea using water immersion electrode method. χ2 testing, analysis of variance, u test, q test were performed. Results In adult drink tea group, control group, and children, the detaction rate of dental fluorosis were respectively 24.75%(99/400),9.5%(38/400)and 15.96%(71/445), obviously higher in drink tea group than the control group(χ2= 32.73, P<0.05). Urine average concentration of fluoride was (3.38±2.37), (2.09±1.33 ). (1.41±0.67)mg/L, obviously higher in drink tea group than the control group(u= 9.49, P<0.05). In 4 investigation spots tea fluoride averaged at (3.63±2.05)mg/L, fluoride content in drinking water was averagely (1.01±0.49) mg/L, with that of Wangwa Town [(1.31±0.33)mg/L] exceeding the national standard for drinking water (1.0 mg/L), where dental fluorosis rate was higher and fluoride content was higher than that in 3 other investigation spots (P<0.05).

Methods Thirty-one cases of spinal cord injury and urinarytract infection were recruited. By use of intermittent catheterization, the bladder function was trained. Bacteria cul-ture and identification of in urine from the patients were conducted before the training (indwelling catheterization)and after 15 or 30 days of intermittent catheterization. Results The rates of urinary tract infection (colony count≥1?10~5cfu/ml) after 15 or 30 days of intermittent catheterization were 38. 7% and 35. 5%, respectively, whichwere significantly lower than those of indwelling catheterization (100%), P

Objective: To explore the potential material basis of Kangbingdu Granules for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) through network pharmacology and molecular docking technology. Methods: The chemical constituents and action targets of Isatidis Radix, Forsythiae Fructus, Gypsum Fibrosum, Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, Phragmitis Rhizoma, Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, Pogostemon cablin, Acoritataninowii Rhizoma and Curcumae Radix in Kangbingdu Granules were searched by TCMSP. The gene corresponding to the target was searched by UniProt database, and Cytoscape 3.6.1 was used to build a medicinal material-compound-target (gene) network. DAVID was used to perform gene ontology (GO) function enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis to predict its mechanism. Molecular docking of the top 15 components was carried out in the medicinal material-compound-target network with SARS-CoV-2 3CL hydrolase, and molecular docking with bicuculline, luteolin, quercetin and angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) was performed. Results: The medicinal material-compound-target (gene) network contained eight medicinal materials, 75 compounds and 255 targets. GO function enrichment analysis revealed 161 GO items (P < 0.05), including 65 biological process (BP) items, 36 cell composition (CC) items, and 60 molecular function (MF) items. KEGG pathway enrichment screened 131 signaling pathways (P < 0.05). The results of molecular docking showed that the core active compounds such as bicuculline, luteolin, and quercetin in the Kangbingdu Granules had similar affinities with those recommended by COVID-19. Conclusion: The active compounds in Kangbingdu Granules can interact with angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) via targets PTGS2, HSP90AB1, and PTGS1 to regulate multiple signaling pathways, thereby exerting therapeutic effects on COVID-19.
