With Jianyu (LI 15), Jianliao (TE 14) and Jianzhen (SI 9) for instance, the three acupoints used to treat shoulder bi syndrome by needle knife, and through traceability and researching constant structure, the acupoint position, insertion trace, manipulation and clinical significance of needle knife medicine were discussed. Accurate position is one of the characteristics of acupoints selection of needle knife medicine. As for the acupoints selection method, the mean of body surface localization is always used. The phanerous or palpable bone processes, muscles and tendons are taken as positioning marks; pressing areas where appear sour, numb, or distensible and other sensations is considered as the principle of press positioning. So acupoints position method is the combination of observation and palpation. Different insertion methods can effectively relieve the accretive bursae synovialis, tendon, joint capsule and the compressed nerve, so that shoulder bi syndrome is relieved.

After completing the producing of the televised teaching material of TCM Bone-setting Skills,which was sponsored by Scientific and Teaching Section of Ministry of Health,and applying it to the teaching process in classroom for undergraduate students in Southern Medical University,The students were asked to fill out a questionnaire so as to preliminarily explore the applying methods and assess its teaching value under the circumstances of multimedia teaching.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to study the mechanism of substance P (SP)-mediated the neural control of mast cell (MC) degranulation. METHOD: Bone marrow mast cells from mice were cultured with stem cell factor (SCF), IL-3 and IL-4 (group A) and SCF, IL-3 (group B) for four weeks. Then the cells were harvested and reserved for studies. Western Blot hybridization technique was used to detect the expression of FcεR I α and NK-1R on MCs from the two groups. Then such cells were activated with SP (0, 0. 01, 0. 10, 1. 00, 10. 00 µg/ml, respectively) for 30 min. The histamine released into the supernatant and stored in the protoplasm was quantified by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). And the percentage of histamine release was calculated as a percent of total histamine content. RESULT: The expressions of FcεR I α and NK-1R on these mast cells in group A were statistically higher than in group B (P<0. 05). The MCs from two groups can be actived when stimulated by SP, but the level of MC degranulation in group A was higher than group B (P<0. 05). CONCLUSION Neuropeptide may stimulate MC degranulation through immunological and non-immunological pathways. In summary, the current study provides us with better understanding of the mechanism of neuropeptide-controlled MC deranulation, and this should be helpful for the further research involved in the mechanism and treatmemt of airway hyper-reactivity.

Patients of infraorbital nerve injury often appear in the sensory abnormalities of corresponding position, such as numbness or pain. We present a case with numbness of the left cheek because of the injury. The patient were treated by endoscopic assisted on the left infraorbital nerve decompression through the approach of the canine fossa. The symptom shows improvement after the operation. The patient feels numbness significantly ease on 4 months after the operation.

Deficiency of Qi (healthy energy) and blood stasis are the basic pathological changes of hepatic fibrosis according to the theories of traditional Chinese medicine. Fuzheng Huayu Capsule, a compound Chinese herbal medicine for hepatic fibrosis, is produced in the light of this pathological mechanism. More than a decade of clinical studies and experimental researches show that this medicine has effects of protecting hepatic cells, relieving liver injury, and controlling the development of hepatic fibrosis. It has definite functional mechanisms on anti-hepatic fibrosis. It is a safe and effective medicine for hepatic fibrosis, and deserves to be well introduced to clinic.

[Objective]To explore a new technique of prefabricating internal plate.[Method]Three-dimensional reconstruction of the well-liking shinbone was performed by MSCT scanning and the length and shape of the catagmatic shinbone for operation was measured on well-liking shinbone.The shinbone curve was depicted using a self-designed skeletal curve-depicting.Then shape of the material for internal fixation was determined.[Result]The length and shape of the shinbone curve was accurately measured.The physiological curve of the shinbone was depicted.Then shape of the material for internal fixation was determined.[Conclusion]Three-dimensional well-liking shinbone reconstruction with MSCT and measurement facilitates the determination of the optimal length and shape of the internal fixation material to enhance the attachment between the material and the bone surface and consequently the therapeutic effects.One case's length and shape of internal fixation was dissatisfactory for hyperplasia of bone.But the length and shape of internal fixation has basal shape.

We present a rare case of dental foreign body from maxillary sinus in a 21-year woman who was hospitalized because of oral cavity and nasal sinus leak for 3 months when doing cheek-bulging action. Admission diagnosis :dental maxillary sinus"foreign body" (left); chronic maxillary sinusitis (left). Computed tomographic scan showed irregular high density shadow in the left maxillary sinus. The "foreign body" was removed via anteri- or prelacrimal recess approach, which was supposed to be the iatrogenic foreign body - alveolar bone.

ObjectiveTo investigate the preventive effects of rosiglitazone on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) rats and to explore the potential mechanisms in modulating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ),nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB),and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression.Methods Thirty male SD rats were assigned into the normal group ( n =10),the model group ( n =10),rosiglitazone prevention group [ n =10,simultaneously 4mg/( kg · d) gavage daily at beginning].Liver appearance,liver index,and histological changes were assessed.Serum tumor necrosis factor-o (TNF-c) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The expressions of PPARγ,NF-κB,and COX-2 in liver were determined using immunohistochemical methods.The mRNA and protein expressions of COX-2 were disclosed by real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analysis.ResultsCompared with the normal group,the liver index significantly increased in model group (3.92 ±0.72 vs.5.71 ± 1.05,P =0.004).HE and Masson staining showed significantly increased steatosis,inflammation,and fibrosis.The serum levels of TNF-α,PGE2 in high-fat-diet-fed rats were significantly increased ( 11.72 ± 2.47 vs.29.39 ± 5.32,P =0.002 ; 236.60 ± 24.90vs.288.24 ± 17.17,P =0.004).Immunohistochemistry showed NF-κB and COX-2 in livers were significantly elevated,but PPARγ wasdecreased in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis rats.Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot found mRNA and protein expressions of COX-2 were increased in the model group (0.57 ± 0.08 vs.2.83 ± 0.24,P =0.0007 ; 0.38 ± 0.03 vs.1.00 ± 0.03,P =0.004).Compared with the model group,the expressions of PPARγsignificantly increased and the expressions of NF-κB and COX-2 significantly decreased ( mRNA:2.83 ± 0.24 vs.0.46 ± 0.11,P =0.002 ; protein: 1.00 ± 0.03 vs.0.62 ± 0.02,P =0.006 ) in the rosiglitazone prevention group.ConclusionBy inhibiting NF-κB and COX-2 expressions,rosiglitazone can reduce insulin resistance and then prevent the occurrence and deve lopment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
