Chinese Journal of Medical Library and Information Science 2014;(1):48-51
What the medical book reviews focus are the academic contents and update information in medical books, and the popularization of update scientific achievements. The reviewed medical books must have the value for handing down scientific achievements and face the new problems and challenges encountered in the development of medical sciences. Medical book reviews are the booster for the accumulation and development of medical knowledge in medical college and university library. The book reviews written by medical experts were summarized,the experiences with the development of medical book review resources were described, and the advertising of network platform for book reviews was elaborated in our library.
4.Effect of Mild Hypothermia on Anti-brain Antibody and Cerebral Haemodynamics of Patients with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2012;18(11):1052-1055
Objective To study the protective mechanism of mild hypothermia from severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). Methods 160 cases with sTBI were treated under normothermia (NT group, n=80) and mild hypothermia (HT group, n=80) respectively. Their serum level of anti-brain antibody (ABAb) was measured with ELISA, cerebral haemodynamics with transcranial Doppler, and intracranial pressure (ICP) with ICP monitor 1 d, 3 d, 5 d, 7 d and 14 d after injury, while they were assessed with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and Glasgow outcome scale (GOS). Results The level of ABAb was lower in HT group than in NT group (P<0.05) at every point. The scores of GCS increased (P<0.05), and the volume of systole, mean and pulse index improved more in HT group 5 d after injury (P<0.01). The ICP was lower in HT group 3 d after injury (P<0.01). The score of GOS was better in HT group than in NT group when discharged (P<0.05). Conclusion Mild hypothermia can reduce the level of serum anti-brain antibody, improve cerebral haemodynamics, decrease ICP and improve the prognosis in patients with sTBl.

Cancer Research and Clinic 2006;0(09):-
Objective To investigate the diagnostic points of multiple sclerosis and multiple metastatic encephaloma.Methods Choose a case of multiple sclerosis,which had been misdiagnosed as multiple metastatic encephaloma and operated on,to analyse its reasons of misdiagnosis.Results Reasons for the misdiagnosis:The neglect of the importance of the disease history.The scant knowledge of the early represen- tations of the atypical MS(demyelinating pseudotumor).The lack of the knowledge of the non-demyelinating lesions of the MS.The lack of attention to the different representations of the MRI scan between the acute MS and the multiple metastatic encephaloma.The excessive importance is attached to the imageological report. The neglect of the routine examination of cerebrospinal fluid.Conclusion When multiple metastatic en- cephaloma develops,the differential diagnosis of MS should be made.The further examinations should be done to those cases which are hard to tell the difference with metastatic encephaloma by clinical and imageo- logical representations.Try to avoid undergoing surgery or radiotherapy hastily.
6.Protective Effect of Caspase Inhibitor on Neonatal Rat with Hypoxia-Ischemia Brain Damage
Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 1986;0(02):-
Objective To observe the protection of Caspase inhibitor(zVAD-fmk,benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp-fluoromethyl ketone) on neonatal rat with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD).Methods Thirty-six neonatal rats,7 days old,were randomly divided into hypoxic-ischemic(HI) control group(A),zVAD-fmk treated group(B) and sham group(C).Before HI insult,a pan-Caspase inhibitor,zVAD-fmk or normal buffer solution was injected into the cerebral ventricle.The water content of cerebral hemisphere was measured and the percentage of apoptofic cells in hippocampal neurons was measured by Flow cytometer(Annexin V/PI) at 24 hours after HI insult.The effect on body weights(percentage of increased weight,WIP) and macroscopical changes(percentage of cortox and hippocampal dead neurons) were assessed at 14 days.Results Compared with group A,the water content of ischemic hemisphere and apoptosis percentage of hippocampal neurons in group B reduced significantly.The difference of percentage of increased weight at 14 days in group B was not significantly.Microscopic examination showed that cortox and hippocampus neural death rate in group B was proved significantly reduced compared with that in group A.Conclusion Intracerebral administration of zVAD-fmk has protective effects on hypoxic-ischemic brain damage in neonatal rat.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ginsenoside-Rg3 on cellular immune function of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with radiotherapy. Methods 50 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with radiotherapy were ran-domly divided into Rg3 group ( n=25 ) and control group ( n=25 ) . After the radiotherapy, the peripheral blood lymphocy of each group were collected. MTT method was used to detect lymphocyte proliferation. Lymphocyte sub-group was detected by Flow Cytometry/financal capacity model. IgG,IgM and Th1/Th2 cytokines was detected by ELISA. Results Ginsenoside Rg3 could promote the proliferation of lymphocytes in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma radiotherapy,upregulation of CD4 +,CD4 +/CD8 +,IgG,IgM,IL-2,downregulation of CD8 +,IL-6,and showed dose dependent. Conclusion Rg3 ginsenosides can significantly enhance the peripheral blood lymphocyte immune function of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with radiotherapy. Rg3 ginsenosides may be a potential im-mune immunosuppression caused by nasopharyngeal carcinoma radiotherapy enhancer antagonism.

[Objective]To evaluate the safety and efficacy of total hip resurfacing arthroplasty in treating osteoarthritis secondary to congenital dysplastic hip.[Method]From May 2005 to June 2005,13 hips in 12 cases with osteoarthritis secondary dysplastic hip were adopted in this study.There were 8 females and 4 males,aged from 30 to 59 years,average 47 years.All the 13 hips were subluxation according to Hartofilakidis classification system.Posterolateral approach was used during operation and all the acetabular cups were reconstructed at the true acetabular location.The pronthesis were cementless acetabular cup and cement femoral head.[Result]The average operation time was 110 min,blood loss volume was 387 ml during operation,drainage volume was 200 ml and the extremity was lengthened for about 9 mm.All the incision healed well and there have not any complications such as femoral neck fracture,infection,dislocation and neurovascular injury.Follow-up for 12 to 13 months,all the joints had good or excellent clinical results.The average range of motion of the hip:flexion improved from 106.7? to 120?,abduction improved from 25.8? to 46.4?,external rotation improved from 20.8? to 45?,internal rotation improved from 3.3? to 28.6?.The Harris score increased from 42 preoperatively to 96 postoperatively.Radiographically,the positions of the prostheses were normal,the average abduction angle of the cup was 39?,the average stem-shaft angle wes 141?,the positions of acetabular rotation centre were moved down and medially for average 9 mm and 11.5 mm respectively,the acetabular superolateral bone coverage of the hips was 89.5%,no radiolucent line was observed.[Conclusion]Total hip resurfacing arthroplasty has got good short-term results in the treatment of osteoarthritis secondary to dysplastic hip.Because of the less quantity and short follow-up time,the long-term results and indications for other kinds of dysplastic hip are worthy of further studying.

Objective To explore the application value of hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy and pericardial devascularization in the treatment of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Methods Hand-assisted laparoscopic operations of splenectomy in 10 patients and pericardial devascularization in 13 patients were completed by using the LigaSure device and harmonic scalpel. Results All the operations were completed successfully under laparoscope. Of splenectomy, the operative time was 63?15.5 min and the estimated blood loss was 32.4?21.2 ml. Of pericardial devascularization, the operative time was 115.3?25.5 min and the estimated blood loss was 52.4?24.2 ml. All the patients got out of bed and moved around at 12.2?3.8 h after operation. Conclusions [WTBZ]Hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy and pericardial devascularization using the LigaSure device and harmonic scalpel has advantages of high reliability, little blood loss, and quick postoperative recovery. The procedure can be used in the management of portal hypertension and hypersplenism.
