Combined with practical experience, a stock investigation method of medicinal plants is approached from different angles, such as setting up the sample field and quadrant, doing the fieldwork, calculating the stock and annual possible gathering volume, etc. Depending on the geographical distribution features of the plants, the sample field are pointed out on topographic maps (1: 50 00 or 1: 10 000). Quadrants are set up at random or regularly according to the species and density of the plants. The locat ion, area, slop orientation, gradient,elevation, and vegetation of the sample field, also the area of quadrant and the amount of plants investigated, should be carefully noted down during the fieldwork .The quadrants are classified according to their slop orientation and gradient, then convert the recorded amonut of plants in quadrants to the amount of plants per square kilornetre. The stock of Per square kilometre is equal to the volume of the amount of the plants in per square kilometre divided by the amount of the plants per kilogram. The stock of per square kilometre multiplied by the area of earth's surface is the stock volume, which should be classified by the slop orientaion and gradient. The sum of the volunes is the total stock of a kind of plant.As to gather and make use of the medicinal plants in a gathering circle period, the annul possible gathering volume should be calculated as the stock volume of the plant divided by the gathering circle period.

BACKGROUND: At present the strategy of nerve regeneration and repairng are main promoting nerve intrinsic regeneration capacity and improving the micro-environment. Studies have shown a number of combined treatment which could promote the regeneration and growth of nerve axon.OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility and effect of rat spinal cord injury repaired by peripheral nerve combined growth factor. METHODS: Sixty healthy adult female SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: nerve graft group, nerve graft combined growth factor group, spinal cord transaction group and laminectomy group. Taking T_9 as the center, a longitudinal incision was conducted in rat skin, revealing dural sac, spinal cord was transected and removed 3 mm, 2-cm segment of the eighth to tenth intercostal nerve was obtained from nerve graft group and nerve graft combined with growth factor group, autologous intercostal nerve was cross-transplanted into spinal defect (proximal white matter and distal gray matter, distal white matter and proximal gray matter) after pruning appropriately. The transplanted intercostal nerves were fixed with fibrin glue in nerve graft group, while those in nerve graft combined growth factor group were fixed with fibrin glue containing 2.1 mg/L acidic fibroblast growth factor, followed by dural suture～ Stump of broken ends was done in spinal cord transection group, while laminectomy was performed in laminectomy group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 90 days post-surgery, somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) and motor evoked potential (MEP) were determined, the motor function of hind limbs was evaluated by the Basso. Beattie.Bresnahan (BBB) test at 70 days. Both SEP and MEP were led in the laminectomy group, but not lead in spinal cord transection group; in nerve graft group, 3 rats showed bilateral SEP, 4 led unilateral SEP, 4 led bilateral MEP, 3 led unilateral MEP; in nerve graft combined with growth factor group, 5 led bilateral SEP and 2 led unilateral SEP, 5 led bilateral MEP and 2 led unilateral MEP. The SEP and MEP latency and amplitude in the nerve graft group and nerve graft combined growth factor group were significantly superior to the spinal cord transection group (P < 0.01), autologous rib nerve graft group was better than nerve graft combined growth factor group (P <0.01). In the laminectomy group, awake rats following anesthesia returned to normal exercise, rats in spinal cord transection group continued to extend limbs and rotated within 3 months, rats in other two groups recovered functions obviously 3 weeks post-surgery and gradually restored throughout the entire observation period. Nerve graft group and nerve graft combined growth factor group showed significantly increased BBB score compared with spinal cord transection were (P < 0.01), and the nerve graft combined growth factor group was superior to nerve graft group (P < 0.01). The peripheral nerve graft can promote the spinal function following spinal cord injury, while the nerve combined growth factor can better restore the function.

BACKGROUND: Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β_1, a potent cell growth and proliferation regulatory proteins, plays an important role in development of anti-graft rejection and graft vascular disease. OBJECTIVE: To observe local injection of TGF-β_1 effects on transplant immune rejection following freezing disposal and nerve allograft. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled animal study was performed at the Animal Experimental Center, Harbin Medical University from June 2007 to June 2008. MATERIALS: A total of 60 clean SD rats (recipients) were divided into 3 groups: autogenous nerve graft group, nerve allograft group, TGF-β_1 plasmid + nerve allograft group, 20 in each group. A total of 40 Wistar male rats served as donors. pAdTrack-CMV-TGF-β_1 plasmid, pAdEasy-1-Bj51833 cells were presented by the Orthopedic Laboratory of Fourth Hospital of Harbin Medical University. METHODS: Longitudinal posterolateral incision was made in 40 donor rats to expose sciatic nerve. The whole bilateral sciatic nerve was cut and placed in sterile frozen tubes for 1 week for use. Under the microscope, connective tissue was cut in the biceps muscle and semi-tendon and semi-membrane gap of recipient rats to expose the sciatic nerve. 1-cm sciatic nerve was cut 0.5 cm below the muscle from the plow-shaped hole. Transplantation of frozen autogenous nerve graft and nerve allograft (nerve at equal size) was separately performed in the autogenous nerve graft and nerve allograft groups. In the TGF-β_1 plasmid + nerve allograft group, pAdTrack-CMV-TGF-β_1 plasmid (40 μg) was injected into the local muscle and two sides of transected sciatic nerve of each rat following nerve allograft transplantation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Motor nerve conduction velocity, pathology and axonal counting were examined 3, 6, 9 weeks after surgery. RESULTS: Motor nerve conduction velocity was higher in the TGF-β_1 plasmid + nerve allograft group than in the nerve allograft group (P < 0.01), which did not show significant difference compared with the autogenous nerve graft group. Axonal counting was greater in the autogenous nerve graft and TGF-β_1 plasmid + nerve allograft groups compared with the nerve allograft group 9 weeks following surgery (P < 0.01). Using optical microscope and electron microscope, nerve fibers were normal and well arranged in the TGF-β_1 plasmid + nerve allograft group. Nerve fibers presented vascular proliferation, good myelin sheath. Abundant regenerated myelin sheath was found in nerve fiber. The number of Schwann cells was obviously increased, and there were prosperous cytoplasm, a large amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum, clear mitochondria. In regenerated axons, microfilament closely arranged, which was similar to the autogenous nerve graft group. In the nerve allograft group, the optical microscope and electron microscope showed a few nerve fibers, disorderly arranged, significant demyelination, axon degeneration and disappearance, without regenerated fibers. CONCLUSION: Local injection of TGF-β_1 plasmid could reduce immune rejection after cold sciatic nerve allograft transplantation.

BACKGROUND:It is proved by a number of experiments that such a structure as Bungner band-Schwann cell-basilar membrane,which is formed at 2 or 3 weeks after nerve injury,is the ideal microenvironment for neural regeneration. However,the sprouting of nerve fiber close to broken ends takes place at several hours after nerve injury,which shows that the regeneration of nerve fiber and the formation of required microenvironment don't occurred at the same time.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the best repairing time for peripheral nerve injury.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A randomized control animal experiment was performed in the Animal Experiment Centre,Harbin Medical University from June 2007 to June 2008.MATERIALS:A total of 20 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into four groups,namely,an immediate repairing group and the other three groups that were repaired respectively at week 2,week 4 and month 3 after injury.METHODS:Peripheral nerve injury models of New Zealand rabbits were established. The immediate repairing group received suture immediately after injury;For the other three groups,the two broken ends of their nerves were fixed on sarcoiemmas temporarily and their wounds were sutured layer by layer. Then they were opened respectively at week 2,week 4 and month 3 after injury,to receive epineural suture with non traumatic 10-0 nylon suture under operating microscope,after which wounds were sutured again.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Nerve electrophysiological observation,axon number,light microscope and electron microscope observation of sutured nerve segments in each group.RESULTS:Nerves repaired at week 2 after injury had a slower nerve conduction velocity than those at week 4 and month 3 after injury (P＜0.01);There was no difference of significance between the immediate repairing group and the group repaired at week 2 after injury (P＞0.05). According to the comparison among the four groups:it had the best repairing effect to repair nerve at week 2 after injury,with normal course and neat arrangement of nerve fibers,vascular proliferation in nerve fibers,myelin sheaths with better structure,Schwann ceils with active function,as well as regenerated axons with intensively arranged microfilaments;Repairing at week 4 after injury had the worst effect,with rare nerve fivers disorderly arranged,myelin sheath and axons significantly degenerated,most nerve fibers demyelinated with axons disappeared,and no regenerated nerve fibers seen;Repairing at month 3 saw the worse repairing effect,with more nerve fiber damaged and disorderly arranged,myelin sheath and axons significantly degenerated,nerve fibers rarely regenerated,less Schwann cells,as well as cytoplasm did not well develope;The effect of immediate repairing after injury was better,with nerve fibers unobviously damaged and well arranged,myelin sheath and axons lightly degenerated,large amounts of myelin sheaths regenerated in nerve fibers,Schwann cells increased obviously,as well as cytoplasms better-developed. Axon counting result was better in the group repaired at week 2 after injury than the otherthree groups,with the minimum in the group repaired at week 4 after injury.CONCLUSION:Repairing at week 2 after injury can get a better result than at any other time points,accordingly two weeks after nerve injury is the best time for repairing peripheral nerve injury.

Objective To study human bocavirus (HBoV) induced respiratory tract infection in Guangdong Province in China. Methods HBoV was deteced by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology and was identified by DNA sequences. Results One strain of HBoV was detected and identified from 50 samples collected from children with acute respiratory tract infections. This was the first clinical case of HBoV infection reported in Guangdong and was named as GD-1 strain. The HBoV capsid protein (VP) gene amplified from the specimen by PCR was identified by sequencing and was compared with gene sequences in GenBank. Phylogenetic trees were constructed for sequence homology analysis. The nucleotides similarities between GD-1 and Beijing strains, France strains and Canada strains were over 98%, while the simlilarity was over 36% compared with Korea KNIH-2K6GJ2713 strain and over 77% compared with US NH4549 strain. Conclusion HBoV infection does exist in Guangdong Province. It is valuable to start systemic study on it.

Objective:To investigate the factors related to recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with posterior capsular involvment.Methods:The data of 186 PTC patients admitted and operated from Jun 2017 to Jun 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The invasion of recurrent laryngeal nerve was evaluated on its relation to gender, age, tumor size, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, lymph node metastasis in central region, BRAFV600E gene mutation especially PTC posterior capsular involvement.Results:The recurrent laryngeal nerve was invaded in 30 out of 186 patients. Univariate analysis showed that recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion was related to tumor size, Hashimoto's thyroiditis and cervical lymph node metastasis( χ2=6.964,4.814,6.078, P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that tumor size and lymph node metastasis in cervical region were independent risk factors for recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion(β=1.020,1.622, P<0.05). Hashimoto's thyroiditis was a protective factor for recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion (β=-1.881, P<0.05). Conclusions:When papillary thyroid carcinoma invaded the capsule, the risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion was higher with larger tumor size and cervical lymph node metastasis, while Hashimoto's thyroiditis was a protective factor for the risk of recurrent nerve invasion.
