Objective To evaluate the interobserver reliability and intraobserver reproducibility of the subaxial cervical spine injury classification system (SLIC) and identify its guidance on clinical treatment of spinal cord injuries. Methods Thirty consecutive patients with subaxial cervical injury ad-mitted into our hospital between December 2007 and July 2008 were enrolled in this study and underwent neurological examinations followed by X-ray, CT, and MRI examinations. SLIC was evaluated in aspects of fracture morphology, disco-ligamentous complex (DLC) status and ncurologic status. According to the morphology in image, the fractures were classified into normal, compression, burst, distraction and trans-lation/rotation. According to injury severity, DLC was sorted into intact, indeterminate and disrupted types. Neurologic status was classified into intact, nerve root injury, complete/incomplete spinal cord in-jury and continuous spinal cord compression. The clinical and radiographic data of 30 patients with subax-ial cervical injury were evaluated prospectively by four groups of surgeons to count SLIC scores and decide treatment based on SLIC scores. The evaluation was done again three months later. Cohen' s unweighted kappa coefficients were calculated for the key parameters of each classification system ( morphology, neurologic status, DLCstatus, total score, and proposed management) to analyze the reliability and repreducibility of SLIC. Based on SLIC, the treatment method was selected and the neurological function recovery and the complications observed. Results The interrater Kappa statistics of all subgroups ( morphology, DLCstatus, total score, proposed management) were within the range of moderate to substantial reliability (0.47-0.69). Kappa coefficient was 0.83 for neurologic status, with high reliability. There was no statistical difference upon Kappa values in two evaluations. The interrater Kappa statistics of all sub-groups ( morphology, DLCstatus, total score, proposed management) were within the range of moderate to substantial reproducibility (0.53-0.78). Kappa coefficient was 0.89 for neurologic stares, with high repreducibility. The recovery rate of neuroiogie function was 79.2%. There was no aggravation of neurological status, with low incidence of complications. Conclusions SLIC has advantages of high reliability and reproducibility, simple use, exact evaluation and can facilitate decision-making in treatment of subaxial cervical spine injures.

Effects of acupuncture on spontaneous discharges of nerve cells in ventromedial neucleus of hypothalamus (VNH) and levels of monoamine neurotransmitters in rats of obesity were observed. Results indicated that levels of tyrosine (Tyr) and dopamine f DA) were decreased, and the levels of 5 -hydroxytryptamine (5 - HT) and 5 - hydroxyindole acetic acid (5 - HIAA) increased in VNH; The frequency of spontaneous discharges of nerve cells in VNH lowered significantly in the obesity group as compared with those in the normal group; When acupuncture attained effect of weight reduction, the frequency of spontaneous discharges of nerve cells in the VMH increased obviously; the levels of Tyr, DA, tryptamine , and 5 - HT/5 - HIAA increased, and 5 - HT level decreased in VMH tissue. It is suggested that the benign regulative action of acupuncture on VNH is possibly one of the crucial factors for acupuncture in reducing body weight.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Tao Hong Si Wu decoction in treating Diabetic nephropathy (DN).Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on Tao Hong Si Wu decoction in treatment of DN were searched in PubMed,EMbase,Cochrane Library,CMCC,VIP,CNKI,CBM.Data were strictly extracted using the fundamental evaluation method recommended in Cochrane Handbook and Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0.24 software.Results Eleven RCTs of 956 patients of DN were analyzed.The content and methodological quality of these 11 test samples were low,which could not be undertaken high quality research of sensitivity analysis.Meta-analysis results showed that:Tao Hong Si Wu decoction could be reduced to some extent,the early and clinical stage of DN patients with 24 h UPE reduce the Ⅲ,Ⅳ of Scr,and improve renal function to a certain extent.The results also showed that Tao Hong Si Wu decoction could lower TG and CHO,better control FBG and HbAlc of DN patients,besides,serious adverse reactions have not been found during the treatment.Conclusion Tao Hong Si Wu Decoction could be a relatively safe and effective treatment of DN drugs.However,a high probability of selection bias and measurement bias in the included studies was bound to affect the strength of the results.

65 years,Type A in 1,Type B in 1).Radial nerve injury resulted from operation obtained complete recovery 3 months post-operation;1 case that transient ulnar nerve palsy recovered 3 days after operation;elbow heterotopic ossification in 1 case;there were no radial nerve injury in 23 cases where the plate was removed in same approach.Elbow function evaluated by Mayo Score system were excellent in 18,good in 8,fair in 4,bad in 3.At the last follow-up,the strength of triceps was about 4～5 grade.[Conclusion]The fracture of middle and lower humeral shaft can be exposed and fixed safely by triceps-splitting approach,the rate of complications was acceptable.

AIM To observe the influence of high fat diet on the success rate of diet induced obesity rat. METHODS Rats of model group were fed with hight fat diet for 16 weeks then, the weight and Lee index were measured and compared with those of normal control group. RESULTS The weight and Lee index of model group rats were 491 62?46 89 and 319 04?9 49. Those of the normal control group rats were 394 2?50 78 and 304 63?5 99. There were significant difference between the two groups( P

Objective To explore the method and result of endoscopic thyroidectomy. Methods Thyroidectomy was performed endoscopically in 4 cases of thyroidoma. Results 4 patients underwent endoscopic thyroidectomy, whose operation time was 52,63,70,75 minutes respectively. An average blood loss during operation was 35ml and no complication occurred. They were discharged 4 days～5 days after operation. Conclusions The endoscopic thyroidectomy has the advantages of minimal invasion, less bleeding, less complication and quicker recovery.

Objective To study the effects of fat grafting on partial jaw deformity.Methods A total of 19 cases of partial jaw deformity.were used fat grafting in past 2.5 years,from January 2012 to June 2015.All analyses were to find suitable fat grafting method for partial jaw deformiw.Fat graft was obtained by low pressure suction and low speed centrifugation.Results A lot of 15 patients in this group had been followed up for 6 months to 2 years.9 patients was satisfied with once fat grafting and 6 with twice.Conclusions Fat grafting provides a useful alternative to partial jaw deformity with normal occlusion.But it also remains to be seen what the forward effects of fat grafting on partial jaw deformity are.

Objective To explore a method for development of carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhotic model in rabbit and establish a portal vein delivery system in this model.Methods Male New Zealand white rabbit was subcutaneously injected carbon tetrachloride twice weekly,and the liver pathology and hepatic hydroxyproline content were examined after 12 weeks of injection.Portal vein catheterization was introduced through the terminal branch of mesostenium vein.The injection end of the catheter was embedded subcutaneously in the abdominal wall of the animal.The portal delivery was implemented by percutaneous puncture of the injection cap.Results After 12 weeks' of carbon tetrachloride administration,the rabbit liver developed typical pseudo lobule,and the liver hydroxyproline content increased 3.5 times compared to normal control.The portal vein delivery system could be maintained as long as 12 weeks.Conclusion A successive method to induce rabbit liver cirrhosis is developed,and a simple and economic animal portal vein delivery system is introduced.

The fasting blood sugar (FBS), blood insulin (INS), insulin sensitivity index (ISI) and resistant hormone of INS in 46 patients with NIDDM were observed before and after the treatment. It was showed that the good effect was achieved in the cases by acupuncture and moxibustion, while the contents of FBS and INS in plasma were all decreased and ISI was increased in the cases treated by acupuncture and moxibustion, the degree of decrease of FBS and INS, and increase of ISI being closely related to therapeutic effect. The level of resistant hormone of INS and lipid in patients tend to normal level. Acupuncture and moxibustion had a good regulatory effect on the function of endocrine,sugar and lipid metabolism. It suggests that IR can be corrected by acupuncture and moxibustion,which is a key to therapeutic effect.

Better therapeutic effects have been achieved in the treatment of 112 simple obesity cases,mainly with acupuncture therapy plus auxiliary treatment of acupuncture weight loss apparatus. The results showed that the effective rate was 85% in 112 cases by one course of the treatments, 92% in 84 cases by two courses of the treatments, and 98% in 43 cases by three courses of the treatments. The therapeutic effect in combination with acupuncture apparatus was better in long courses of the treatment than in the short courses of the treatments, in male than in female, in young age than in old age, in mild case than in severe condition, in short duration than in long duration, in excessive pattern than in deficient pattern, in those without complications than in those with complications, and in those without family history than in those with family history, indicating that early treatment and prolonged treatment can enhance the therapeutic effects in weight loss by acupuncture.
