To observe the clinical efficacy of moxibustion plus cupping in treating trigeminal neuralgia due to wind-cold.Method Seventy patients with trigeminal neuralgia due to wind-cold were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 35 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by moxibustion plus cupping, while the control group was by ordinary acupuncture. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and other pain indexes were observed before treatment and after 2 treatment courses, and the clinical efficacies were compared.Result The total effective rate was 85.7% in the treatment group versus 57.1% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The VAS scores were significantly changed after treatment in both groups (P<0.01). After treatment, the VAS score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.01). After intervention, the scores of pain range, pain intensity, pain duration, attack frequency, quality of life, affection, and global pain score in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Moxibustion plus cupping is an effective approach in treating trigeminal neuralgia due to wind-cold.

2-(3-benzoylphenyl)propionitrile which is an important intermediate of ketoprofen was synthesized through phase-transfer catalytic by four steps, involving Friedel-crafts reaction, bromination and cyanation. Pure compound was obtained, and the content of crystal was about 98%.AIM　The content of 2-(3-benzoylphenyl)propionitrile was improved. METHODS　Phase-transfer catalytic methylation and suitable method of aftertreatment were used. RESULTS　The yield and content was both improved. CONCLUSION　Phase-transfer catalytic methylation was the best method, and suitable method of aftertreatment was essential.

Objective To assess the quality of life and its influencing factors in ellerly patients with advanced cancer.Methods The quality of life was evaluated with EORTC QLQ-C30 scale Chinese version in 103 elderly patients with advanced cancer in a hospital outpatient clinic of Beijing from July 2013 to July 2014.The overall health,physical function,role function,cognitive function,emotional function,social function and individual symptoms score were assessed.The general information and clinical data of patients were analyzed.Results The general score of quality of life in elderly advanced cancer patients was (35.77 ± 21.98).In the domain of function the role functional score was the lowest (36.60 ± 27.97);in the domain of symptoms the tired score was the highest(50.82 ± 30.16),the score of appetite loss was the highest in individual symptoms (39.78 ± 24.32).Educational level,marital status,living condition,medical insurance and the number of comorbidities were correlated with overall health in elderly patients with advanced cancer (P ＜ 0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the educational level (t =2.447,P ＜ 0.05),marital status (t =2.118,P ＜ 0.05),medical insurance (t =3.770,P ＜ 0.05) and overall health status were positively correlated with the quality of life scores;and number of eomorbidities (t =-7.157,P ＜ 0.05) was negatively associated with the overall quality of life.Conclusion The quality of life was generally poor in elderly patients with advanced cancer;and educational level,marital status,medical insurance,comorbidities are important influencing factors.

Objective To study the effect of alcohol on apoptosis and apoptosis-associated genes-Bcl-2 and Bax of cardiac muscle cell.Methods We established an animal experimental model by giving different concentration of alcohol to the healthy mice.Myocardial apoptosis and the expression of apoptosis-associated gene Bcl-2 and Bax were quantitatively analysed by the nuclear fast red-crystal violet staining and immunohistochemical method.Results Some nuclears of the experimental groups were stained purple and agglutinated.Counting under the high power microscope,it was found that the amount of abnormal nuclears significantly increased in alcohol-treated groups compared with the control group (P

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of VATS lobectomy and VATS segmentectomy in the treatment of old age patients with non small cell lung cancer for stage Ⅰ.Methods 140 patients with non small cell lung cancer for stage Ⅰ were chosen and randomly divided into two group including group A(70 patients)with VATS lobectomy and group B(70 patients)with VATS segmentectomy;and the perioperative clinical indicators,level of lung function and CRP before and after operation and survival rate with follow-up of both groups were compared.Results The operation time,intraoperative blood loss amount,chest drainage volume and time and hospitalization staying time of group B[(118.15±33.61)min,(59.25±10.61)ml,(641.56±135.17)ml,(3.42±0.77)d and(5.08±1.32)d] were significantly better than group A[(135.33±40.10)min,(83.33±14.15)ml,(783.89±180.61)ml、(4.38±0.94)d和(6.52±1.58)d](P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the number of lymph node dissection between group A(12.67±2.64)and group B(12.38±2.58)(P<0.05).The levels of FVC and FEV1 after operation of group B was significantly higher than group A(P<0.05).The levels of CRP after operation of group B was significantly lower than group A(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the 1 year survival rate with follow-up between group A(94.29%)and group B(94.29%)(P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with VATS lobectomy,VATS segmentectomy in the treatment of old age patients with non small cell lung cancer for stage Ⅰ can efficiently reduce surgical trauma degree,accelerate the recovery process of body,protect the lung ventilation function and be helpful to reduce the inflammatory response levels.

AIM To explore whether or not the function of insulin like growth factor (IGF I) in promoting osteopontin gene expression and protein synthesis of rat vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC). METHODS Cultured cells were incubated with different concentration of IGF I for different hours, then RT PCR and Western blotting analysis were used to observed the effects of IGF I on osteopontin expression of rat vascular smooth muscle cells RESULTS IGF I (20 ?g?L -1 ) could obviously induce the gene expression and protein synthesis of osteopontin, RT PCR results showed that the ratio of mRNA of osteopontin and ? actin in cells incubated with IGF I (20 ?g?L -1 ) for 3, 24 and 48 h increased by 39 70%,40 44% and 54 05% respectively, as compared with that of the control ( P
