Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of bloodletting plus acupoint sticking in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Method Eighty DPN patients were randomized into a treatment group of 40 cases and a control group of 40 cases. In addition to the basic treatment (general blood glucose control) in both groups, the treatment group was given bloodletting plus acupoint sticking with Chinese medication, while the control group was given oral administration of Mecobalamin tablets. Result The treatment group had a higher total effective rate (92.5%) than the control group (67.5%), and the improvement of nerve conduction velocity in the treatment group was more significant than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Bloodletting plus acupoint sticking is effective in treating DPN.

Ojective To study the coagulant state in the patients with deep vein thrombosis(DVT)caused by low level of coagulant factor Ⅻ.Methods Blood samples were obtained from 125 patients with deep veins thrombosis and 32 normal people(control group).Before thrombolysis the following parameters were tested:thrombolysis Ⅻ:C coagulant activity(FⅫ:C),prothrombin time(PT),activated prothrombin time(APTT),thrombin time(TT),fibrinogen(FIB),antithrombin activity(AT:A),D-dimer(D-D),plasminogen activity(PLG:A),lupus anticoagulant(LAC),protein C(PC),tissue plasminogen activator antigen(t-PA:Ag),plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen(PAI:Ag).According to the activity of FⅫ:C,the patients were divided into 2 groups:normal Ⅻ:C group and low FⅫ:C group.Results The PLG:A,PC,AT:A,t-PA:Ag in the low FⅫ:C group was lower evidently than those in normal group(P0.05).Compared to the FⅫ:C normal group,t-PA:Ag in the low FⅫ:C group decreased(P

Objective To establish a capillary gas chromatography method for the determination of menthol and methyl salicylate in Shangtongning adhesive plaster. Methods The internal standard substance of n-Pentadecane was employed. The GC system consisted of a DB-WAX capillary column (30 m?0.32 mm, 0.25 ?m), nitrogen as the carrier gas, column temperature at 130 ℃, FID as the detector at 200 ℃, and with a split ratio of 12∶1. Results The contents of menthol and methyl salicylate in 6 lots of samples were determined and the constituents concerned were separated well under the chromatographic condition. The average recovery of menthol and methyl salicylate were 101.52% (RSD=2.66%) and 100.34% (RSD=3.38%), respectively. Conclusion The method was sensitive, accurate, specific and suitable for the quality control of the preparation.

AIM: To optimize the extraction of the anthraquinone aglycnes from Rhubarb using supercritical fluid extraction(SFE). METHODS: Orthogonal design and variance analysis were used to optimize five operational variables of SFE. RESULTS: The optimized operational variables of SFE were obtained as following: the temperature was 70 ?C , the pressure was 35 MPa, the static extraction time was 8 min, the dynamic extraction volume 5 mL and methanol were used as modifier. CONCLUSION: SFE is rapid, convenient and accurate, and can be used to extract athraquinone aglycones from Rhubarb.

Objective To explore the total anti-oxidation capacity(T-AOC), superoxide dismutase(SOD), nitric oxide synthase(NOS) and nitric oxide(NO) in testis homogenate of the rats’ with chronic fluorosis induced by drinking NaF solutions with different concentration. Methods 24 male Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups (8 rats per group) including control group, low-fluoride(LF) group, high-fluoride(HF) group, which were exposed to fluoride by means of freely drinking tap water containing NaF with 0, 100 and 200 mg/L respectively for 20 weeks. T-AOC, NOS activities and SOD activity of the testis tissue were determined by colorimetry , xanthine oxidase method and nitrate reductase method respectively. Results Compared with the control group, the T-AOC of the testis tissue increased significantly in LF group and decreased significantly in HF group. SOD activity of the testis tissue showed on significant difference among the control group, LF group and HF group . Compared with the control group, the levels of NOS and NO decreased significantly in LF group and increased significantly in HF group. Conclusion The T-AOC of the testis tissue exposed to low level of fluoride presents a compensatory increase induced by the inhibited activity of NOS and synthesis of NO. Higher level of fluoride may increase reactive oxygen species(ROS), and cause abnormal expression of induce nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) and increased synthesis of NO in the testis tissue.

Objective To investigate the adverse effect of chronic fluorosis on the testicular structure of rats testis and the antagonism of taurine-zinc. Methods 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (6 in each) and treated with fluoride and taurine-zinc through drinking water: control, low fluorine (LF, 100 mg NaF/L), high fluorine (HF, 200 mg NaF/L), low fluorine plus Zn(LF+Zn), high fluorine plus Zn (HF+Zn). After 5 months of fluoride treated, the rats in LF+Zn and HF+Zn groups were given taurine-zinc (0.34 g/L) by added in the drinking water for another month. Six months later, the testicle structure in all groups was examined under the microscope. Results In LF group, the loosened testicular gland and interstitial edema were seen. In HF group, primary spermatocyte became smaller and sperm head disappeared. However, in LF+Zn and HF+Zn groups there were no so significant damages, the changes were similar to normal testis. Conclusion Chronic fluorosis can cause testis damage and taurine-zinc presents a obvious antagonism in rats.

Objective In order to evaluate the curative effects and mechanism of Ulinastatin on acute pancreatitis(AP). Methods 40 patients with AP were enrolled in this prospective study. They were comparable in dispearing time of symptoms and physical signs and laboratory data. Results The symptoms and physical signs of patients were significantly relieved in Ulinastatin group,and the labrotory data,such as the blood amylase and urine amylase recovered normal after five days with Ulinaststin. Conclution Ulinaststin has good clinical value in AP.

As a special service,blood donation has special requirements for the ethics of blood donors,which is different from the professional ethics of ordinary employees or the social ethics of the general public.The present ethical status of blood donors calls for a new way of effectively cultivating the ethics of blood donors.

ObjectiveTo study the characteristics of wedge factor of enhanced dynamic wedge (EDW) on Varian 600C linear accelerator . MethodsEnhanced dynamic wedge factors (EDWFs) of different jaw settings were measured on a Varian 600C linear accelerator with FARMER 2570 dosimeter and 2571 0.6 ml Thimble ion chamber. At the same time,equations were used to compute EDWFs of symmetric and asymmetric fields and off axis points. The same measurements were carried out on 30 degree physical wedge in contrast to EDW. The accelerator's jaw position was described according to IEC radiotherapy equipment coordinate standard. Results The EDWFs of symmetric field decreased smoothly while the field size increased. Under the same field,EDWFs decreased as the wedge angle increased and the increasing extent became apparent when the field became larger. In off axis fields formed by the upper independent jaws,only the EDWFs of 60 degree had the tendency to increase when the field center moved toward the toe of the wedge,the rest gave the opposite results. The EDWFs of fixed points varied only by 0.5 percent when the fixed jaw remained at the same place and the moving jaw and lower jaws stayed at different positions. But the WF of 30 degree physical wedge increased by 2.9 percent when the lower jaw settings increased from 4 cm to 40 cm. The EDWFs derived from analytic equations for symmetric and asymmetric fields coincided well with measured results. But at off-axis points,the differences between calculated values and measured data were apparent. ConclusionsThe curve of EDWF versus field size is very smooth. The EDWF of fixed point only depends on the position of the stationary upper jaw,and is affected little by the moving upper jaw and lower jaws. The EDWFs of off axis fields are much more complex than those of physical wedge; it shouldn't be confused in clinical application. The conversion method of rectangular field to square field is of no use when EDW field is confronted. Analytic methods are highly conformal with the calculation of EDWFs of symmetric and asymmetric fields.
