A new method using the ideal mid-facial line as the navigating reference was introduced to improve the outcome of cleft lip repair. Using the verticle coordinate crossing the middle point of the intercanthus line, surgeons could observe and correct the distortion of the fine structures in labial-nasal area. This laser projecting mid-facial-line navigation was repeatable, while not interfere the operating. In conclusion, generalizing laser navigation is a valuable supplementary for cleft lip repair.

"Seven kinds of prescriptions" and "Ten formulas of materia medica" were important classifications of prescription. According to textual research, the title of"Seven kinds of prescriptions" appeared fi rst in XU Shu-wei’s Shang han jiu shi lun (Ninety Essays on Cold Pathogenic Diseases), which was applied in medical education in the Song Dynasty. The title of "Ten formulas of materia medica" was beginning from CHEN Cang-qi’s ten kinds of "general drugs", and its concept was expanded from "kind" of drugs into "prescription" in Sheng ji jing (Classic of Holy Universal Relief) of the Song Dynasty. These two classif ications had great influence on classif ication of prescription based on functions in later time. The development of "Seven kinds of prescriptions" and "Ten formulas of materia medica" in the Song Dynasty was discussed, and the reasons was analyzed in this paper.

Protective effects of chlorpromazine on ischemic heart and its mechanisms were investigated in rats with acute myocardial infarction (MI). 30 SD female rats were divided into three groups. the ischemia group, being subjected MI by coronary ligation, the MI+chlorpromazine group and the control. All samples were taken at 2 hours after operation. The ischemia group, as compared to the control, showed remarkable ultrastructural damage in ischemic myocardium and significant increases in serum CPKmb by 77%, serum cortisol by 67% and serum malondialdehyde (MDA) by 25%(P

Objective To investigate the expression of HIF-1α and survivin in renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) and normal renal tissue ( NRT) and explore the correlation between HIF-1α and survivin expression. Method SABC immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression in 32 cases of RCC and 10 cases of NRT.Results The level of positive HIF-1α immunostaining in RCC(0. 037 ±0. 0182,0. 093 ±0. 0384,respectively) was higher than NRT(0. 008 ±0.0055,0. 014 ±0. 0059, respectively) ( P<0. 05). The level of positive survivin immunostaining in RCC(0. 053 ±0.0179,0. 137 ±0.0291) was higher than NRT( P<0. 05). The expression of HIF-1α and survivin had positive relationship with clinical stage in RCC(0. 029 ±0. 0117,0.070±0.0154)( P <0.05). The expression of HIF-la had relation with survivin in RCC( r = 0. 655, P < 0. 05).Conclusion The expression of HIF-1α was strongly positive correlated with survivin ( r = 1.000,0. 655, P <0. 05).
