Previous studies have proved that the effect of statins in both primary and secondary prevention of ischemic stroke, however, whether acute ischemic stroke needs to be treated with statins and the effect of statins pretreatment on acute ischemic stroke remain unclear. This article reviews the recent representative studies in this field, and analyzes the effects of the application of statins in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke on prognosis.

BACKGROUND: There are currently few studies regarding the pharmacokinetics of vancomycin via intravitreous injection.OBJECTIVE: To determine the concentration of vancomycin injected into the vitreous chamber of conscious rabbits.METHODS: A microdialysis probe was implanted into vitreous chamber of normal rabbit eyes and rabbit eyes infected withbacterial endophthalmitis for 24 hours, and 10 g/L vancomycin 0.1 mL was administered intravitreally. The drug concentration inthe vitreous chamber of rabbit eyes was determined at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 84 hours after injection, through themicrodialysis and high performance liquid chromatogram-ultraviolet detection.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The metabolism of vancomycin showed an open two-compartment model in normal rabbit eyes.Its half-life was 51.66 hours and the peak concentration was 695.92 mg/L. The metabolism of vancomycin in the infected vitreouschamber showed a one-compartment model. Its half-life was 11.91 hours and the peak concentration was 713.35 mg/L. All rabbitswere injected with drugs for 84 hours and the intravitreous concentration of vancomycin was higher than minimal inhibitoryconcentration. The experimental findings indicate that microdialysis coupled to high performance liquid chromatography is apowerful tool to investigate the ocular pharmacokinetics of vancomycin, and the samples are harvested in a real-time, continuousand dynamic fashion when the experimental animals are conscious.

The health workforce plays an important role in the development of township hospitals. It builds up the comprehensive evaluation index system as the first time, based on data of township hospitals from 29 provinces, to evaluate the allocation of the health workforce in primary medical institutions in rural China. The empirical results show that the core workforce allocation of Chinese township hospitals has largely focused on the local health status, which shows good fairness of allocation. Meanwhile, the equity level of the core workforce allocation is not far behind the overall fairness level, and both are slightly higher than the critical value. The core workforce allocation is in good consistency with the local level of economic development.

Objective To retrospectively study the value of ultrasonography in diagnosing breast lymphoma and compare with mammography and MRI. Methods Imaging characteristics of 26 patients who were pathologically comfirmed as breast lymphoma were reviewed, including ultrasonography,mammography and MRI, and compare the diagnostic accuracy among the three. Results Twenty-four patients underwent ultrasonography and 32 lesions were found, with longest diameters averaged 30 mm.Tumors were mostly hypoechoic or very hypoechoic (81.3％), some were lobular (25.0％) or oval (21.9 ％ ) in shape, the margins were most frequently circumcribed (62. 5 ％ ), and a few tumors showed an echogenic boundary (18.8 ％ ). Color Doppler imaging showed hypervascularity in most tumors (59.4 ％ ).Ninteen patients undewent mammography, 15 solitary lesions were identified in 12 patients, asymmetric density in five,punctate calcification in one,and no abnormality in one. Eleven lesions were identified in MRI of 10 patients, 10 lesions showed hypointensity on T1-weighted images and hyperintensity on T2-weighted images, and heterogeneous enhancement after contrast. The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography,mammography and MRI was 83％, 52％ and 100％, respectively. Conclusions The sonograms of breast lymphoma have some distinct features, the combination of ultrasonography and MRI might benefit the diagnosis of breast lymphoma.

Objective:To explore the relationship between Feng syndrome(风证) and plasma endothelin(ET)in initial condition of acutely ischemic stroke.Methods:Using the table of syndrome quantitative diagnosis which formulated according to experiences of apoplectic experts to grade the fraction of syndrome which appears in initial condition of 151 cases with acute cerebral infarction，at the same time the level of plasma ET was determined by radioimmunoassay(RIA),and then according to the fraction of syndrome patients were divided into two groups,one is Feng syndrome group,the other is nonFeng syndrome group，the levels of plasma ET in this two groups and with healthy subject were compared.Results:It showed that the level of plasma ET in Feng group was significantly higher than that in nonFeng group（P<0.001）；and the same result between the patients and the healthy subjects（all P<0.001） were obtained.Conclusions:The results demonstrate that there is a correlated relationship between Feng syndrome and plasma ET,and the level of plasma ET can be regarded as a microcosmic indices to separate Feng syndrome from nonFeng syndrome.

Objective To study ultrasound features of breast cancer before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy,and its correlation with histopathology. Methods One hundred and nine patients with breast cancer underwent paclitaxel plus carboplatin neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the change of the primary lesions and axillary lymph nodes were studied by ultrasound,and compared with histopathology. Results Seventeen patients achieved complete remission under ultrasound, the rest measurable lesions became significantly shortened in maximum diameter [ ( 22.46 ± 11.50) mm vs (34. 71 ± 13.67) mm, P ＜ 0. 001 ], and showed decrease both in longitudinal-transverse ratio (0. 80 ± 0. 23 vs 0. 86 ± 0. 22, P ＞0. 05) and grades of blood flow (0. 51 ± 0.80 vs 1.23± 1.05, P ＜0. 001 ). 44. 83% (44/92) of metastatic axillary lymph nodes disapeared after treatment. Comparing with histopathology, the sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound assessing complete remission were 57. 89 % ( 11 / 19) and 93.33 % (84/90), respectively. The moderate concord between ultrasound with histopathology might be attributed to the pathologic change of breast tissue and stroma after treatment, nevertheless grades of blood flow might be more meaningful. Conclusions Ultrasound assessment of neoadjuvant chemotherapeutic response might be of reference value,and studying corresponding ultrasonic manifestation of different kinds of pathological changes would help with better evaluation.

Objective To explore propofol dosage difference between in morning and at after-noon undergoing gynecological clinic short operation.Methods One thousands and nine hundred fifty eight female patients,aged 1 6-50 yr,of ASA physical status Ior II,undergoing gynecology clinic short operation,according to the operation time,were divided into two groups,Group morning (8:30-1 1:30,n =1047)and group afternoon (14:00-1 7:00,n =91 1).Each patient was intravenously injected fentanyl 0.01 μg/kg,and then propofol 2.5 mg/kg.When the observer’s assessment of alertness/se-dation (OAA/S)scores reached 0 score,the operation began.If the body moved,the surgery was stopped and 25 mg propofol was intravenously injected quickly.After 10 seconds observation,if the body movement existed,25 mg more propofol was performed,until the movement disappeared.Re-cord patients’year,height,weight,body mass index,and the heart beat,blood pressure of pre-op-eration,the number of times of cervix uteri expansion per vagina,the history of labor per vagina,the total dosage of propofol and the time length of sedation.Results The dosage of group afternoon (1 52.1 6±65.90)mg was higher than group morning’s (135.69±37.67)mg (P <0.05).There was no significant difference of time lengths of sedation between the two groups.Additional use of propofol in the afternoon group 387 (42.5%)was higher than group morning’s 1 99 (23.5%)(P <0.05).Conclusion In gynecological clinic short operation,the propofol dosage in afternoon was higher than that in the morning group.But the sedation time length in afternoon was not longer than that in the morning.
