Objective To discuss the clinical effect of entecavir in treatment of hepatitis B-related nephritis. Methods 28 patients with hepatitis B-related nephritis diagnosed in our hospital through needling biopsy of kidney from 2009 to 2012 were selected in this study. All patients were given oral entecavir, besides conprehensive treatments,including potassium aspartate and diammonium glycyrrhizinate. The treatment course was three months. We observed and analyzed patients' serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum albumin and urine protein within 24 hours after two treatment courses.Results After one treatment course, the overall effective rate was 82.14%. Two courses later, the overall effective rate was 96.43%. Patients' serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum albumin and urine protein within 24 hours after two treatment courses had significant differences with those before treatment's,the difference had statistical significance ( <0.05),but serum creatinine had no significant change after treatment. Conclusion Entecavir has significant curative effect on hepatitis B-related nephritis.

Objective: To explore the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) diagnosis and treatment of type 2 diabetes in Tianjin urban population. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on hospital patients with type 2 diabetes in TCM hospitals of different levels in Tianjin from 2003 to 2007. The multiphasic stratified cluster sampling method was adopted in selecting the target hospital. Finally 3 496 patients were selected as the survey sample. Then the constituent ratios of diabetes in different syndrome types were calculated. Results: In this study, the descending sort proportion of TCM syndrome types of type 2 diabetes in Tianjin urban population was deficiency of both qi and yin, stagnation of phlegm-dampness, exuberant heat due to yin deficiency, deficiency of both yin and yang, and blood stasis and qi stagnation. Most of the diabetes patients with deficiency of both qi and yin, deficiency of both yin and yang, and stagnation of phlegm-dampness were older than 60 years. Most of the diabetes patients with exuberant heat due to yin deficiency were 50 to 59 years old, while the diabetes patients with blood stasis and qi stagnation were 40 to 49 years old. The frequency of Danggui (Angelica sinensis) use was high in the diabetes patients with deficiency of both qi and yin; the frequency of Chenpi (Citrus reticulate Blanco) use was high in the diabetes patients with exuberant heat due to yin deficiency; the frequency of Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba) use was high in the diabetes patients with deficiency of both qi and yin; the frequency of Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae) use was high in the diabetes patients with stagnation of phlegm-dampness; and the frequency of Xingren (Semen Armeniacae) use was high in the diabetes patients with blood stasis and qi stagnation. Conclusion: The main syndrome types of diabetes patients in Tianjin urban area are deficiency of both qi and yin, stagnation of phlegm-dampness and exuberant heat due to yin deficiency. And the patients are mainly older than 50 years. The most frequently used herbs are Danggui (Angelica sinensis), Chenpi (Citrus reticulate Blanco), Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae) and Xingren (Semen Armeniacae).

Objective To compare the clinical value of automatic coagulometer and automatic biochemistry analyzer for the de-tection of antithrombin Ⅲ(AT-Ⅲ)in acute myocardial infarction and cirrhosis.Methods 55 cases of acute myocardial infarction and cirrhosis patients were investigated in the study,the healthy people was normal control.The concentration of AT-Ⅲwas detec-ted with automatic coagulometer and automatic biochemistry analyzer at the same time.Results The concentration of AT-Ⅲ detec-ted with automatic coagulometer was (251.2±58.5 )mg/L,(228.0 ±22.6)mg/L in acute myocardial infarction and cirrhosis pa-tients,the concentration of AT-Ⅲ detected with automatic biochemistry analysis was (255.6±54.3)mg/L,(230.3±23.1)mg/L in acute myocardial infarction and cirrhosis patients,and the concentration of AT-Ⅲwas significantly lower than that in normal control (P <0.05).The concentration of AT-Ⅲ detected with two detection methods in acute myocardial infarction patients was signifi-cantly lower than that in cirrhosis patients(P <0.05).There were significant difference between automatic coagulometer and auto-matic biochemistry analyzer for the detection of antithrombin Ⅲ(AT-Ⅲ).Conclusion The detection of AT-Ⅲ with automatic coag-ulometer and automatic biochemistry analyzer could diagnose and identify acute myocardial infarction and cirrhosis.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) is a common pathogen of community-acquired pneumonia in children.In recent years,with increase in the incidence of MP infection,the severe cases caused by the later pathogen are also incresing.At present the pathogenesis of severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(SMPP) is still not very explicit,and increased macrolide resistance of MP made a great impact on the treatment.This article reviewed the recent progress in the study of the pathogenesis,clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treatment of SMPP.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of three Endobutton plates and clavicular hook plate in treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation.Methods Forty-two patients with acromioclavicular joint dislocation were randomly divided into EB group (20 patients) who were treated with three Endobutton plates and CH group (22 patients) who were treated with clavicular hook plate from January 2008 to January 2011.Perioperative index (operation time,blood loss and VAS scores on the third day postoperatively),Karlsson shoulder joint function scores and postoperative complication were compared.Results The operation time and blood loss in EB group were significantly higher than those in CH group [(113.6 ± 25.3)minvs.(62.3±17.8)min,(152.7±15.2) mlvs.(93.1±18.9)ml,P＜0.O5].However,therehadno significant difference for VAS scores on the third day postoperatively between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).EB group was superior to CH group for shoulder joint function scores on the twelfth month postoperatively,but there had no significant difference [95.0％ (19/20) vs.81.8％ (18/22),P ＞ 0.05].The incidence rate of shoulder joint pain and stiffness in EB group were significant lower than those in CH group[20.0 ％ (4/20) vs.50.0％(11/22),20.0％(4/20) vs.54.5％(12/22),P ＜ 0.05].The incidence rate of incision infection in two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Compared with clavicular hook plate,three Endobutton plates fixation is complex and consequently with more blood loss.However,three Endobutton plates fixation have advantage in clinical effect and complication.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading causes of blindness in working-aged people,of which diabetic macular edema (DME) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) are the two main causes of vision-threatening.Through the regular screening of patients with diabetes,the risk factors of DR can be identified and proper interventions can prevent the incidence of DR.Timely retinal laser photocoagulation and application of the renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (candesartan or fibrates),lipid-lowering drug fenofibrate can inhibit DR progress.Macula local and (or) grid pattern photocoagulation or in combination with bevacizumab intravitreal injection can effectively relief DME.In regard to late PDR,vitrectomy couldrestore or retain useful vision, importantly, minimally invasive 23G vitrectomy and preoperative bevacizumab intravitreal injection greatly improved the surgical outcomes.However DR pathogenesis is not entirely clear.Also there is a lack of effective and feasible DR screening strategy in China.Furthermore existing evidence-based data of medical and surgical treatment of DR is insufficient.Therefore,the DR prevention and treatment is still a long way to go in China.

The clinical application of POCT technology is growing wider,the most significant advantage of this technology is to get the test results quickly,Therefore clinicians could make clinical decisions in time and choose appropriate approaches or interventions.However,it should be taken seriously that while POCT helps patients to get medical care successfully,the potential harm to the patients cannot be ignored.Hence it is essential that normative documents should be imposed as soon as possible.The technology of POCT can benefit the entire society only if the proper administration to approve the use of POCT technology is taken control of; the comprehensive and normative quality management is implemented,and the appropriate training to the related clinicians and nurses is enforced.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference in clinical efficacy on post-stroke sensory disturbance between catgut implantation at scalp reflecting foci and conventional acupuncture as well as the impacts on blood rheology.

METHODSFifty-nine cases of post-stroke sensory disturbance were randomized into a catgut implantation group (30 cases) and an acupuncture group (29 cases). The conventional internal medicine treatment, limb motor function rehabilitation training and sensory function training were applied in the two groups. Additionally, the catgut implantation was used at scalp reflecting foci in the catgut implantation group, once a week, 4 treatment made one session. In the acupuncture group, acupuncture was applied at Baihui (GV 20), Fengchi (GB 20), Jianyu (LI 15), Quchi (LI 11), Waiguan (TE 5), Hegu (LI 4), Siqiang (EX-LE 24), Yanglingquan (GB 34), Zusanli (ST 36), Fenglong (ST 40), Qiuxu (GB 40) and Taichong (LR 3), once every day, 5 times a week, the 4 weeks of treatment made one session. There was an interval of 1 week between the two sessions in the two groups. Totally, 2 sessions of treatment were required. Before and after treatment, the sensory and motor scores, modified barthel index (MBI) and blood rheological indices were observed, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated in the patients of the two groups.

RESULTSAfter 8 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate was 90.0% (27/30) in the catgut implantation group, which was better than 65.5% (19/29) in the acupuncture group (P < 0.05). FugI-Meyer motor function, sensory function scores and MBI were all improved as compared with those before treat ment in the two groups (all P < 0.05), and the results in the catgut implantation group was superior to the acu puncture group (all P < 0.05). The levels of whole blood viscosity, erythrocyte hematocrit, platelet aggregation and fibrinogen were improved as compared with those before treatment (all P < 0.05), and the results in the catgut implantation group was better than those in the acupuncture group (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe catgut implantation at scalp reflecting foci achieves a satisfactory clinical efficacy on post-stroke sensory disturbance and improves the blood rheological indices.
