Objective To evaluate operation and chemotherapy in patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma. Methods Forty-four patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma collected from February 1993 to August 2007 were treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy with repeated course. The retroperitoneal lymph node in ten patients were resected and two patients operated after chemotherapy. Results Resected tissue in eight patients after chemotherapy were necrosis and fibrosis, two patients were viable cancer. All patients were followed up for two to eight years. Five year survival rate was stage ⅡA 100 %(11/11), stage ⅡB 91.67 % (22124), stage Ⅱc 77.78 %(7/9). Conclusion For raising survival rate and controlling disease development of the patients who suffered from stage Ⅱ testieular seminoma,the repeated courses of chemotherapy should be given as early as possible.

Objective] To sum up Pro. Fu Huazhou’s clinical experience in treating alopecia areata. [Method] By following the teacher clinic and sorting out the related medical materials. Summarize the mentor's academic view and clinical experience in the differentiation and treatment of alopecia areata, for proven cases.[Result] In professor Fu Huazhou's opinion, alopecia areata disease in Shaoyin and Jueyin, more close relationship with liver and kidney, virtual in the clinical setting is more, which is given priority to liver and kidney deficiency, embodies the JingXie homology, qi complement each other in the body, qi deficiency, blood deficiency, blood deficiency is also empty gas, the lung and fur, deficiency of lung function of dispersing pertains to drop, more hair loss. Alopecia areata can be roughly divided into blood deficiency and excessive wind, qi and blood stasis, qi and blood deficiency, liver and kidney deficiency syndrome and treatment according to patients' clinical performance, treats dialectically, and leaching liquid combination traditional Chinese medicine for external use at the same time, helps new hair regeneration, curative effect is remarkable. [Conclusion] Fu Huazhou ’s treatment of alopecia areata from liver and kidney, internal and external use, shows originality, curative effect, worth learning and promotion.

This paper tried to explore the method of excavation and sorting for local cultural knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine by confirming the research content, setting the eligibility, designing the research method, and implementing the research plan. We pointed out that the trial design, working style, policy support and funding support played an important role for the success of researches.

Objective:To analyze the analgesic effectiveness of dezocine after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: Totally 80 patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group. The control group was given tramadol 0. 2 mg·kg-1 for anesthetize, the observation group was given dezocine 0. 1 mg·kg-1 analgesia. Conducted according to a simgle drug additional pain status of the patient. After the surgery, the time of surgery, VAS and BCS pain condition score of the pa-tients were analyzed and compared, and the incidence of adverse reactions of the two groups were recorded. Results:After the surgery, the operation time, opening eyes, awaking time and extubation time showed no significant difference in the two groups (P>0. 05). VAS scores of the observation group in 30min, 1h, 2h and 6h after the surgery were significantly lower than those of the control group, and BCS score was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (χ2 =4. 020 5,P=0. 045 0). Conclusion:The analgesic effect of dezocine after lap-aroscopic cholecystectomy is promising, which can significantly alleviate the pain after the operation and is worthy of wider application.

Objective To establish a real-time PCR based method for detection of survivin gene samples methylation with dye SYBR Green Ⅰ.Methods DNA samples from 25 pairs of gastric cancer tissue and matched normal gastric tissues were digested with mCpG-sensitive Hpa Ⅱand Msp Ⅰ, and detected by SYBR Green Ⅰ real-time PCR for survivin exon 1 specific primers. The concentration of digested DNA was monitored by real-time quantitative PCR with survivin intron 2 specific primers. A normal genomic DNA which served as a standard was diluted serially 10-fold to determine the sensitivity of real-time PCR. The products were further verified by agarose gel electrophoresis analysis.Results After HpaⅡ enzyme digestion, a peak of PCR product derived from methylated targeted gene was found in the melting curve at Tm (91.5±0.5) ℃, which was verified as 338 bp strap. The control gene (survivin intron 2) characteristic of Tm (79.5±0.5) ℃ was amplified in all digested samples, indicating no non-specific degradation occurred in the genome DNA. The sensitivity of this method was 100 copies/μL. The new established PCR system was applied to detecting 25 cases of lung cancer tissue samples. As a result, the frequency of survivin exon 1 demethylation was 96%.Conclusion As a reliable new method for detection of survivin exon 1 methylation, SYBR Green Ⅰ real-time fluorescent PCR assay is rapid, accurate, sensitive, timing and simple.

OBJECTIVETo verify the clinical efficacy on post-stroke dysphagia treated with acupuncture at Lianquan (CV 23).

METHODSOne hundred and eighty patients were randomized into an acupuncture A group, an acupuncture B group and a rehabilitation group, 60 cases in each one. On the basis of the conventional medication, in the acupuncture A group, acupuncture was applied at Lianquan (CV 23); in the acupuncture B group, acupuncture was applied at Hegu (LI 4) and Neiguan (PC 6) and in the rehabilitation group, the swallowing rehabilitation training was adopted. The treatment was given once a day, 5 times a week, and the 4 weeks of treatment was required in all of the groups. The national institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS) and TV X-ray fluoroscope swallowing scale (VFSS) were used to evaluate neurologic deficit and swallowing function before and after treatment in the patients of each group. The morbidity of pneumonia and clinical efficacy were compared among the groups.

RESULTSThe scores of NIHSS and VFSS were improved apparently after treatment in the patients of the three groups (all P < 0.05) and the results in the acupuncture A group were superior to those in the other two groups (all P < 0.05). The morbidity of pneumonia in the acupuncture A group was lower than that in the acupuncture B group and the rehabilitation group [3.3% (2/60) vs 6.7% (4/60), 8.3% (5/60), both P < 0.05]. The effective rate in the acupuncture A group was better than that in either of the other two groups [95.0% (57/60) vs 81.7% (49/ 60), 75.0% (45/60), both P < 0.05].

CONCLUSIONOn the basis of the conventional medication, acupuncture at Lianquan (CV 23) effectively improves the swallowing function, relieves neurological deficit and reduces the morbidity of pneumonia in the patients of post-stroke dysphagia.

Falling in the elderly is a major health problem and may cause severe consequences. Fall risk assessment is important for preventing and intervening fall incidence. Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) has been introduced to evaluate motion/balance function and fall risk among the older people. Some researches indicated that it might have advantages over the usual tools, and can be used in the hospitals, communities, nursing homes, etc. IMU is a good way to measure gait variability, which may be strongly related with the risk of falls.

Objective To observe the immunologic function of critically ill newborn and the relative function of nuclear factor kappa B(NF-?B).Methods The critically ill group contained 50 cases,and 25 cases from healthy newborns were used as control group.Blood samples were collected in each case,levels of cytokine interleukin(IL)-4,interferon(IFN)-?,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-? and NF-?B were detected.Result Compared with control group,NF-?B of the critically ill newborn activated and the cytokine were disorder,and IL-4 and TNF-? increased,but IFN-? decreased.Conclusions Critically ill newborn exist immune functional disorder.Furthermore,NF-?B activation may be involved in the process in infants with critically illness.
