Objective: To evaluate the curative effect of auricular point sticking therapy on vertebral artery type of cervical spondylosis. Methods: With the single-blind randomized controlled trial design, the treatment group of 42 cases was treated by auricular point sticking therapy and the control group of 38 cases was treated with herbal medication. Fifteen days made up a treatment course, and the total treatment period should be no more than 2 course of treatment. Results and Conclusion: The total effective rate was 97.6% in treatment group and 73.7% in control group; there was a statistically significant difference between two groups, and the treatment group is marked superior to control group.

Objective To evaluate the short-term efficacy and adverse effects of capecitabine as adjuvant chemotherapy of gastric cancer after resection in aged patients. Methods Sixty aged patients with gastric cancer (Ⅱ-Ⅲstage) after resection were randomized to two groups: the high dose group,in which 30 patients were treated least 6 therapeutic cycles (3 weeks for 1 cycle). Efficacy and adverse effects were assessed after 2 cycles. Results Two years' survival was 80% (24/30) in the high dose group and 77% (23/30) in the low dose group (χ2=0.54,P=0.45). The recurrence-free survival time was 19.2 months and 19.0 months respectively (χ2=0.82,P=0.36). Patients in the high dose group experienced more significant nausea/vomiting (Ⅰ-Ⅱ grade) than patients in the low dose group (χ2 = 9.82,P=0.02). However,there was no significant difference on grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ nausea/vomi-ting between the 2 groups(χ2=0.34,P=0.71). The incidence of grade Ⅰ-Ⅳ mucositis,hyperbilirubinemia and hand-foot syndrome (HFS) in the high dose group were higher than in the low dose group( P=0. 04,0. 02 and 0.04,respectively). There was no difference on weakness,lack of appetite and neutropenia between the two groups. in aged patients with similar efficacy and better tolerance of adverse effects compared to capeeitabine [2500 mg/

Keratoconus is a relatively common, bilateral, non-inflammatory corneal ectasia characterized by thinning and scarring of the central portion of the cornea,seriously destroyed the vision. The aetiology of this condition is probably multiple factors,such as collagen themry,genetic themry,epithelia themry,etc.Now,recent investigations devote to gene,and think it one of the major aetiological factors. Laboratory studies suggest a role for degradative enzymes and proteinase inhibitors and a possible role for the interleukin-1 system in its pathogenesis, but these roles need to be more clearly defined. It has well-described clinical signs, but early forms of the disease may go undetected unless the anterior corneal topography is studied. Contact lenses are the most common treatment modality. When contact lenses fail, corneal transplant is the best and most successful surgical option.

Through all times and around the world,those who discipline themselves with high ethical standards can be regarded as truly noble men successfully taking advantage of moral authority of the people.Books on the art of war in ancient China raised a couple of ethical requirements for those superior military officers and governors.If officers want to affect his men′s mental state and generate the army′s spirit of combat effectiveness,they must assume a certain degree of ethical responsibility.Also,active share of ethical responsibility calls to take the initiative to develop a sense of ethical responsibility.Furthermore,to develop a sense of ethical responsibility calls for the building of ethical self-consciousness to participate in the training of ethical responsibility.However,the participation of ethical building consciousness can not be separated from the ethical sense of responsibility.In conclusion,each part of the three links,complementing each other,can not be biased and separated.

Objective To observe and analyze the four changes of plasma D- dimer and coagulation in pregnant women at different stages of pregnancy, and to explore the value of the test. Methods The subjects of this study were 120 pregnant women who underwent routine physical examination in our hospital, according to different stages of pregnancy (early pregnancy, middle pregnancy, late pregnancy, and before delivery) Four D- dimer and four blood coagulation tests were performed in pregnant women, and the results were observed and compared. Results During the pregnancy, D- dimer has increase trend (P<0.05); early in pregnancy, pregnancy and late pregnancy, PT has shortened(P<0.05); pregnancy, APTT has shortened (P<0.05), at the end of pregnancy and parturient period, showing a significant shortening (P<0.05); phenomenon in early pregnancy to mid pregnancy stage, FIB increased significantly (P<0.05), and at the end of pregnancy to perinatal period, with a sharp increase (P<0.05). Conclusion It is of great significance to perform dynamic monitoring of of plasma D- dimer and coagulation four indices in pregnant women during pregnancy.

OBJECTIVE: To establish Access database to conserve and manage patients’ clinical information in therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). METHODS: Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Database Management Software was established to analyze the utilization of digoxin and CsA in renal transplantation patients combining with the situation of TDM in our hospital. RESULTS: The database had the advantages of convenient data processing and rapid inquiry. CONCLUSIONS: Access database is convenient for information management of case history and can afford a great support for clinical pharmacists.

[Objeetive] To investigate the effect of minimally invasive V-shaped osteotomy instead of traditional operative technique for correction of ankylosing kyphosis.[Method]The C-arm X-ray was used under the local anaesthesia to select the space of osteotomy,the length of incision were 6~8 cm and only exposed one interlaminal space,the width of laminar V-shaped osteotomy were 8~10 mm.The operating table was changed from reverse V to type after finished osteotomy,the space of osteotomy would be automatica ly closed and replaced,if the space could not be automaticly closed,careful manipulation would be applied to close it.The bone mass of osteotomy was used in posterior bone graft of lamina.Postoperation,stric and standardized regulation were performed to send the patient back to ward.The fractional manual correction and external fixation of hyperextended plaster vest were performed respectivly 2 weeks after operation.[Result]Fifty patients of this group acquired more satisfied results except 1 case appeared recurrent deformity due to early removing of the plaster vest.[Conclusion]Minimal damage,lower medical expenses(without internal fixation)and satisfied results demonstrated the minimally invasive V-shaped osteotomy is a very effective method.It has advantages of Mutual intercalated V-shaped osteotomy space and better stability after reduction,posterior bone graft of lamina and external fixation of hyperextended plaster vest,therefore,all patients can acquire the bone graft fusion afer 6 months.

Objective To study the sedative and hypnotic effects of oil of spine date seeds by different extraction technologies(compression and supercritical CO2 extraction,OSDSE and OSDSS) in mice.Equivalence test was used to test the effects.Methods Spontaneous activity and tolerance were observed by photoelectric counting method after long-term intragastric administration of OSDSE and OSDSS in mice.The sleeping time and delitescence induced by above threshold dose of pentobarbital sodium and sleeping number induced by below threshold dose of pentobarbital sodium were utilized to observe the hypnotic effect of OSDSE and OSDSS in mice.Diazepam was applied as a positive control drug.Results OSDSE and OSDSS could obviously reduce spontaneous activity,increase sleeping time and sleeping number in mice,while the sleeping delitescence was shortened.All the effects induced by OSDSE and OSDSS were equivalent.The inhibitory effect of spontaneous activity was enhanced following repeated administration,while the effect of diazepam was reduced.Conclusion Both oils of spine date seeds can induce sedative and hypnotic effects without tolerance.They have equivalent effects on sedation and hypnosis.
