Objective To evaluate the clinical results of biofeedback and pelvic electric stimulation therapy for stress urinary incontinence in women. Methods Totally 36 women with stress urinary incontinence were prospcctively studied by treating with biofeedback and pelvic electric stimulation therapy (MeprasolBIO2001). All the patients were follow-up for 3 months. Results About 70% of the patients were completely dry and 22% reported subjective improved,the recurrence rate at 3 months follow-up was 60%. Conclusion Biofeedback and pelvic electric stimulation therapy is a safe method for treating stress urinary incontinence. It is effective and easy to perform as an outpatient treatment. But the therapy should be performed for a longterm.

BackgroundMouse has been used in laboratory studies as the model of ocular diseases.Electroretinogram (ERG)is a non-invasive method for primary examination to evaluate retinal function.Though flash ERG has been widely applied in the mouse ocular disease model for the functional assessment of the retinal outer layer,pattern ERG(PERG) is seldom used for inner retinal evaluation.ObjeetiveThe present experimental study was to investigate the recording parameters and method,wave characteristics of PERG and influencing factors in mouse,and to build the foundation for further research.Methods Thirty C57BL/6 mice aged 6 weeks old were included in this research.RETLport ( Roland Consult,Germany) was adopted for the recording of PERG.The positive needle electrode was placed in the cornea,and the reference and earth electrodes were placed under the derma in the cheek and tail.The PERG under different temporal frequencies (0.5,1.0,2.0 and 4.0 Hz),and special frequencies (0.05,0.10,0.20 cpd) were recorded in a photopic environment,and different contrast ratio (95％ and 99％ ) of stimulator or different transmission bands ( 1-100 Hz,5-30 Hz) in the same temporal frequency and spatial frequency were regulated to analyze the influence on mouse PERG.The use of animals was in compliance to the Regulations for the Administration of Affairs Concerning Experimental Animals by the State Science and Technology Commission.ResultsThe latency of N1 PERG showed a negative N1wave at around 37 ms and positive P wave at about 86 ms in adult mice.The amplitude of N1-P was 2-6 μV.Different spatial frequency,temporal frequency and contrast can affect the final results,and the different temporal frequencies were statistically significant.The wave was stable and the amplitude was unaffected at 5-30 Hz transmission bands with pronounced interference (mean amplitude of N1-P waves were(3.40±0.71),(5.08±0.88),(3.21±1.54),(3.85±1.96)μV in 0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 Hz,F=7.43,P=0.00).ConclusionsPERG wave from adult mouse is similar to that from human.It is a useful method in evaluating the inner retinal function.Appropriate stimulating parameters are critical for recording.

The cytokines have close relationship with the rejection and infection in organ transplantation.The cytokine gene polymorphism influences the secretion of cytokines.The relationship between the rejection and infection in organ transplantation and some cytokines gene polymorphism is reviewed in this article.

Objective To study the relationship of urine RBC morphology between UF-100 urine sediment analytic instrument andphase contrast microscope.Methods The UF-100 urine sediment analytic instrument to analyze 500 urine specimens and study the relation-ship of urine RBC morphology between urine sediment analytic instrument and phase contrast microscope.Results The according perceptionof Normocytic,Microcytic and Non-classified RBC between phase contrast microscope and UF-100 urine sediment analytic instrument RBC-info are 91.4%,94.4%,83.3% respectively,the according perception between phase contrast microscope and RBC-P70Fsc are 94.9%,95.7%,94.7% respectively,and the according perception between phase contrast microscope and RBC Fsc-DW are 84.4%,86.8%,90.5% respectively,the specificity of UF-100 and phase contrast microscope in glomerular hematuria and non-glomerular hematuria are84.3%,88.1% and 83.3%,87.9% respectively.Conclusion The results show that the UF-100 urine sediment analytic instrument issimply operating,fast and high accurate,and which can instruct clinical dignose,therapy and prognosis judgement.

Ten dimeric phthalide racemates (1-10) were isolated from an aqueous extract of the Angelica sinensis root head (Guitou) by separation techniques of column chromatography over macroporous adsorbent resin, MCI resin, silica gel, and Sephadex LH-20, together with preparative thin-layer chromatography and reversed phase HPLC. The racemates were further separated into (+)-/(-)-1-(+)-/(-)-10 with chiral HPLC. Their structures including absolute configurations were elucidated by comprehensive analysis of spectroscopic data, combined with electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and NMR calculations as well as single crystal X-ray diffractions. Compounds (+)-/(-)-1-(+)-/(-)-10 are either new structure or new natural product, named (+)-/(-)-angelidipthalidic acids A-H [(+)-/(-)-1-(+)-/(-)-8] and (+)-/(-)-angelidipthalidols A and B [(+)-/(-)-9 and (+)-/(-)-10], respectively. Meanwhile, dimeric phthalide mono- and bis-lactone derivatives with 3.3′a,8.6′- and 3.6′,8.3′a-coupling patterns as well as determination of their relative configurations are discussed.

Objective To analyze the characteristics,electroencephalographic(EEG)features,neuroimaging findings,therapeutic effects and prognoses of 114 cases of idiopathic nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (NFLE). Methods The clinical data of 114 patients with idiopathic NHLE admitted in the epilepsy outpatient department from June,1999 to January,2007 were collected and analyzed. Results Idiopathic NFLE was clinically characterized by nocturnal clustered,postural or dystonic seizures and complex motor activities.The interictal routine EEG in 22.9% and dynamic EEG in 28% of the cases in wakefuIness and the interictal dynamic EEG in 38% of tbe cases in sleep showed frontal lobe epileptiform discharge,which was found in the EEG during seizure attacks in66.7% of the cases.Drug therapy was effeclive in 79.8% of the cases.with 29.7% of the cases showing complete seizure control. Conclusions Idiopathic NFLE has distinct clinical features wim relatively low rate of EEG abnormality during seizure attack or the interictal period.Frontal lobe epilepsy is more likely to occur in sleep,and sleep EEG is therefore of much importance in the diagnosis of idiopathic NFLE.

OBJECTIVETo study the epidemiological transition of injuries in Ningxia.

METHODSDemographic and mortality data during 1990s in Ningxia were collected and analyzed for temporal trend with linear regression model.

RESULTSDuring the past decade, mortality of injury raised by 28.22% among the residents in Ningxia and ranked the 3rd place in the causes of deaths. In 1999, the top four leading causes of injury deaths were traffic accident, suicide, drowning and poisoning. Overall injury mortality and mortalities of traffic accident and suicide increased, but mortality of drowning decreased during the past decade. As predicted, suicide will rank the 1st place in the causes of deaths among the residents in Ningxia by 2005.

CONCLUSIONSInjury was one of major risk factors influencing health and death among the residents in Ningxia, with a temporal trend in its incidence. Effective research, prevention and control of traffic accident, suicide, drowning and poisoning should be focused.
