Objective To compare the safety and feasibility of thoracoscope decortication and conventional thoracotomy decortication in treatment of senile chronic empyema.Methods Thirty-two patients with senile chronic empyema were selected,among total there were 10 patients received thoracoscope decortication (thoracoscope group) and 22 patients received conventional thoracotomy decortication (conventional thoracotomy group).The operative time,intraoperative bleeding volume,postoperative total hydrothorax drainage volume,postoperative drainage time,postoperative thoracic rinse time,postoperative length of stay in hospital and postoperative antibiotic application time were compared between 2 groups.Results There was no statistical difference in operative time between 2 groups (P＞ 0.05).The intraoperative bleeding volume,postoperative drainage time,postoperative total hydrothorax drainage volume,postoperative thoracic rinse time,postoperative antibiotic application time,postoperative length of stay in hospital in thoracoscope group were significantly better than those in conventional thoracotomy group [(331.00 ± 84.65)ml vs.(453.18 ±93.47) ml,(8.80 ±2.53) d vs.(11.59 ±3.57) d,(2 357.00 ±649.03) ml vs.(3 166.82 ±613.42) ml,(5.50 ±2.22) d vs.(7.68 ±2.95) d,(7.40 ± 1.65) d vs.(9.45 ±2.58) d,(12.20 ± 3.65) d vs.(15.32 ± 4.04) d],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Thoracoscope decortication is safe and feasible in treatment of senile chronic empyema.

Objective To investigate distributions and drug resistance of pathogens in cirrhotic ascites comphcated with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP). Methods Results of bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests of 117 aacitie specimens from cirrhotic patients with SBP were analyzed retrospectively. Results From the 117 ascitie specimens, 117 bacterial strains were isolated, among which 71 (60.68%)were gram-negative bacteria, 45 (38.46%) were gram-positive bacteria. The isolated strains were highly resistant to antibacterial agents, especially for Escherchia coli and Staphylococcu, the resistances to most antibiotics were above 60%. Conclusions High drug resistances were common for pathogenic bacteria in aacites of liver cirrhosis patients complicated with SBP.

Objective To investigate the effect of puerarin on preeclampsia-like rat placental tissue hypoxia inducible factor (hypoxia-inducible factor,HIF)-1αexpression and study the mechanism of protective effects in rats.Methods 60 SD rats were randomly divided into control group,drugs intervention groups(low-dose,middle-dose,high dose)and model group.The rats in drugs intervention groups and model group were adopted endotoxin for induction of preeclampsia model.On the basis of the model group,low,medium and high dose groups were given 20.0,40.0,60.0 mg/kg puerarin by intraperitoneal injection,respectively.The blood pressure of tail artery,urine protein concentration were observed at different points and the expression of HIF-1αwere detected by PT-RCT in each group.Results The systolic blood pressure ,urine protein and HIF-1αprotein in model group were higher than control group(P<0.05 );serum NO concentration was lower than control group (P<0.05 );after the puerarin intervention,systolic blood pressure and urine protein concentration in drugs intervention groups were lower than model group (P<0.05 ),plasma NO concentration was higher than model group (P<0.05 )and HIF-1αprotein was lower than model group (P<0.05 );the placenta weight,weight and body length of newborn rats in drug intervention group were higher than model group (P<0.05 ).Conclusion Puerarin can reduce systolic blood pressure and urine protein levels,promote the level of NO in plasma and reduce HIF-1αlevel in placenta of rats.Puerarin can offer protection to rats with preeclampsia by decreasing the expression of HIF-1αin placental.

This paper studies the differences of rational use of drugs policy between China and America,mainly focusing on the differences in the policy of clinical pharmacists,the research and development process of substitute for drugs,the guarantee system of medical treatment.In addition,it naturally analyzes the reasons for these kinds of differences from the view of culture and value.At last,it deeply summarizes the humanism positions and justice principles based on which the Rational Use of Drugs was drawn up from the angle of ethics.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the bacterial endotoxin test of chlorphenamine maleate injection. METHODS: The interference test and bacterial endotoxin test of 28 batches of chlorphenamine maleate injections from 14 manufacturers were carried out in accordance with the bacterial endotoxin test approved by Chinese Pharmacopeia (2005 edition). RESULTS: Diluted to a concentration of below 0.025 mg?mL-1,the samples showed no interference action on bacterial endotoxin test. The limit value of the bacterial endotoxin was 5 EU?mg-1. The results of the bacterial endotoxin test of the 28 batches of samples were all accorded with the standard of the established quality control. CONCLUSION: The established TAL method is applicable for bacterial endotoxin test of chlorphenamine maleate injection.

Abstract?AIM: To discuss clinical efficacy and safety of 10g/L atropine with short covering for children with amblyopia.?METHODS: Eighty -eight children ( 88 eyes ) with amblyopia, staying in hospital from February 2011 to February 2014 for treatment, were divided into control group ( n =44 ) and observation group ( n =44 ) . The control group only given short covering therapy was observed.Observation group was given 10g/L atropine treatment besides covering.Clinical efficacy, treatment compliance, visual acuity, corrected spherical degree of amblyopia eye and adverse events were observed and compared.?RESULTS:1) After treatment, total effective rate of the observation group was 95% ( 42/44 ) , significantly higher than that of control group ( 80%, 35/44, P<0.05 ); 2 ) excellent compliance rate of the observation group was 95% ( 42/44 ) , significantly higher than that of control group (82%, 36/44, P<0.05);3) visual acuity of the two groups when the disease was first diagnosed was not significantly different (P>0.05), but increased number of lines of vision and corrected spherical degree of amblyopia eye in the observation group were significantly higher (P<0.05);4) in the observation group total rate of adverse events was 9% ( 4/44 ) , significantly lower than that in the control group (23%, 10/44, P<0.05).?CONCLUSION: The combined therapy, 1% atropine with short covering, is effective and safe for amblyopia in children.

OBJECTIVE: About 70% patients with stroke have dysfunction at various degrees in clinic, especially aphasia would affect their social communication and even offer a serious economic load for family and social. This paper aims to summarize the relevant articles on aphasia recovery so as to provide researching evidences in the future. DATA SOURCES: Relevant articles were retrieved from the Medline with the key words of "aphasia, recovery, language, recovery" in English from January 1980 to January 2004. STUDY SELECTION: All articles were selected firstly, those which were related to aphasia recovery were selected, and the non-randomly clinical papers were excluded. The full text of rest was looked up to determine whether they were randomized controlled studies or not. Randomized controlled researches were regarded as inclusion criteria regardless of blind way. DATA EXTRACTION: Among 22 articles on aphasia recovery, 12 were selected according to inclusion criteria and 10 were excluded because of duplicated papers.DATA SYNTHESIS: Recovery of language function was related to sex,age, ducational degrees, characteristics of lesion, range of lesion, duration from episode to language recovery, insight and self redress of language disorder. Therefore, there were various findings and views for previous re searches on mechanism of aphasia recovery. CONCLUSION: There is not uniform conclusion on mechanism of aphasia recovery. Compliance of language function in brain may be a mechanism of aphasia recovery.

Objective: To determine the distribution of CD4~+CD25~+FOXP3~+regulatory T cells (Treg) and Treg subsets in human colorectal carcinoma microenvironment and to explore their correlation with conventional clinico-pathological features.Methods: Frozen sections and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) were used to detect FOXP3~+ Treg in flesh specimen collected from 42 patients with colorectal carcinoma.The number of FOXP3~+ Treg was evaluated in terms of its association with clinico-pathological feature in tumor and peri-cancer tissue.Double staining was performed to determine the expression of ICOS and FOXP~3.Results:The number of FOXP3~+ Treg in the colorectal carcinoma (mean 24.1) was significantly higher than that in peri-cancer tissue (mean 0.7).A higher number of tumor infiltrating FOXP3~+ Tregs was found in the patient groups with poor differentiation,lymphatic metastasis and non-distant metastasis as compared to the patient groups with well differentiation,non-lymphatic metastasis and distant metastasis.The percentage of FOXP3~+ ICOS~+ Treg was higher in colorectal carcinoma(81% ) than that in peri-cancer tissue(10% ).Condusion: Increased FOXP3~+ Treg may influence the occurrence and development of colorectal carcinoma.Our data support the hypothesis that tumor infiltrating FOXP3~+ Tregs attenuate the immune response against cancer and suggest that strategy to overcome FOXP3~+ Treg function may be beneficial in the treatment of human colorectal cancer.
