[Objective]To observe the surgical treatment for the huge disc herniation of C3、4.[Method]Sixteen patients with huge disc herniation of C3、4 were operated upon with combined posterior decompression of expansive open-door laminoplasty with anterior decompression,bone graft and plate fixation.After operation,neurological findings,height of the interbody space and fusion rate of the space were observed.[Result]All the patients were followed up for an average of more than six months,all of them did not get secondary nerve injuries in operation,neurological function were improved obviously and all the affected interbody space got solid fusion.Based on the standard of Odom,50% of the patients were very good,25 % good,25 % general,and the effective rate was about 100%,excellent rate was about 75%.[Conclusion]The combined posterior with anterior decopression and interbody fusion for treatment of huge disc herniation of C3、4 has advantage of more security in removing the prolapsed disc,improvement of the interbody fusion rate,keeping the height ofinterbody space.This procedure is one of the effective operative methods in the treatment of huge disc herniation of C3、4.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of the endoscopic electrocoagulation combined with nasal micro packing in the treatment of refractory epistaxis .Methods 120 patients with refractory epistaxis were selected as the research subjects ,and they were divided into two groups by the single blind randomly methods ,60 cases in each group.The control group was given vaseline gauze for hemostasis of nasal cavity ,and the observation group received endoscopic electrocoagulation combined with nasal packing hemostasis micro treatment .The cure rate ,the incidence of complications ,recovery of nasal mucosa of nasal ventilation time , recovery time , the total amount of bleeding , pain score and recurrence rate of the two groups were compared .Results The cure rate in the observation group was 96.67％,which was significantly higher than 81.67％ in the control group(χ2 =6.988,P<0.05).The incidence rate of complications and pain score in the observation group were 8.33％,(3.65 ±1.09)points,respectively,which were significantly lower than 21.67％,(5.23 ±1.72) points in the control group (χ2 =4.183,t =6.010,all P<0.05).The total amount of bleeding significantly reduced (t=6.344,P<0.05),the recovery of nasal ventilation time and recovery time of nasal mucosa significantly decreased (t=7.119,6.183,all P<0.05).The patients were followed up for 6 months,the recurrence rate in the observation group was 1.67％,which was significantly lower than 11.67％in the control group(χ2 =4.821,P<0.05).Conclusion The endoscopic electric coagulation combined with nasal micro packing in the treatment of refractory epistaxis has significant effect ,it can effectively promote the recovery of patients,reduce complications and recurrence ,the prognosis is good .

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of Naoling decoction on the learning and memory behaviors and the expression of microglia and IL-6 in hippocampal CA3 region of rats with Alzheimer's disease (AD), and to elucidate the potential mechanism. METHODS: Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: a normal group, a sham-operation group, an AD group, a Naoling decoction group and a Naofukang group. The spatial learning and memory behaviors of the rats were investigated by water maze and Y-maze. The Alzheimer's disease model was established by injecting Aβ1-42 into the hippocamal of the rats. Expression of OX-42 (one of the microglia specific markers) and IL-6 in the CA3 region of hippocamal was measured by immunohistochemical stain. RESULTS: Morris water maze experiment showed that the escape latency of hidden platform in the AD group was significantly delayed (P<0.05) and the average times of passing was decreased (P<0.05). Y-maze test showed that the times needed to the learn how to evade the electrical stimulation in the AD group was most than in other groups (P<0.05). Compared with the AD group, the Morris water maze test and Y-maze test of the Naoling decoction group were significantly different (P<0.05). The expression of OX-42 and IL-6 in the CA3 region of hippocamal in the Naoling decoction group was decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Naoling decoction can improve learning and memory, and weaken the expression of OX-42 and IL-6 in hippocampal CA3 of AD rats, which may partly be the therapeutic mechanism of Naoling decoction for AD.

Background: The purpose of this research was to assess the role of heparanase (HPSE)/syndecan1 (SDC1)erve growth factor (NGF) on cancer pain from melanoma. Methods: The influence of HPSE on the biological function of melanoma cells and cancer pain in a mouse model was evaluated. Immunohistochemical staining was used to analyze HPSE and SDC1. HPSE, NGF, and SDC1 were detected using western blot. Inflammatory factors were detected using ELISA assay. Results: HPSE promoted melanoma cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumor growth, as well as cancer pain, while SST0001 treatment reversed the promoting effect of HPSE. HPSE up-regulated NGF, and NGF feedback promoted HPSE. High expression of NGF reversed the inhibitory effect of HPSE down-regulation on melanoma cell phenotype deterioration, including cell viability, proliferation, migration, and invasion. SST0001 down-regulated SDC1 expression. SDC1 reversed the inhibitory effect of SST0001 on cancer pain. Conclusions The results showed that HPSE promoted melanoma development and cancer pain by interacting with NGF/SDC1. It provides new insights to better understand the role of HPSE in melanoma and also provides a new direction for cancer pain treatment.
