This paper reports the perioperative care of a patient undergoing the bilateral posterior ventral globus pallidus deep brain stimulation treatment for neuroacanthocytosis. The nursing points mainly included psychological care of the patient before surgery,preoperative preparation,postoperative care and special nursing before and after deep brain stimulation opening. The patient's dance-like involuntary movements and compulsive behavior reduced significantly after the treatment with no complications.

AIM: To study the quality standard of Compound Shencha Granuls (Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae, Radix Rehmanniae, etc.). METHODS: Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae and Rhizoma et Radix Polygoni Cuspidati in Compound Shencha Granule were distinguished by TLC. Ursolic acid was determinated by TLCS. RESULTS: The methods of TLC to distinguish Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae and Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidati were feasible without negative inference. Ursolic acid content in three groups of samples was 1.24 - 1.58 mg?g -1 . CONCLUSION: The method is accurate and reproducible. It can be used for the quality control of Compound Shencha Granule.

Objective:Our aim is to investigate the relationship of VEGF-C,VEGF-D and lymph node metastasis in pancreatic cancer,and to elucidate the role and significance of the cancerous peripheral lymphatic tissue.Methods: The expression of VEGF-C and VEGF-D was assayed by means of immunohistochemistry in 30 pancreatic carcinomas.Results:The positive rates of VEGF-C、VEGF-D were 73% (22/30)、57% (17/30) respectively in pancreatic cancer.The expression of VEGF-C、 VEGF-D in cancerous invasive edge was significantly higher than that in the center of cancerous tissues.There was no correlation between the expression of VEGF-C、VEGF-Dand the site,differentiation,histology types.Ⅲ~Ⅳ stages of pancreatic cancer showed strong expressions of VEGF-C、VEGF-D than that Ⅰ~Ⅱ stages of pancreatic cancer.The positive lymph node in positive VEGF-C and VEGF-D group were higher than that in the negative group.Conclusion:VEGF-C and VEGF-D induced lymphangiogenisis in pancreatic cancer,promoted the tumor cell lymph metastasis.

The diversity in Tibetan kefir grains and dynamics of the microbial community during the fermentation of Tibetan kefir by PCR-DGGE fingerprinting technique were studied.The results showed that bacterial community of Tibetan kefir grains was more complex than that of yeast.The bacteria communities between different Tibetan kefir grains showed 78%～84% similarity, and yeast 80%～92%.Bands B, E and N of DGGE profiles of the microbial community during fermentation of Tibetan kefir were present throughout the fermentation.Analysis of sequence date showed the majority of the DGGE bands of bacteria community corresponded to LAB, and the most intense band (band E) was completely homology to Lactococcus lactis.

We present an unusual case of an unstable pelvic fracture during pregnancy period, who suffered fetal death and splenic rupture simultaneously which developed massive delayed hemorrhage in abdomen. When considering potential causes of fetal death, direct trauma to the uterus, placenta, or fetus was not associated with a higher fetal mortality rate, compared with maternal hemorrhage. A cesarean section and splenectomy could rescue the maternal life from the hemorrhage situation. Successful treatment of these rare cases is possible with careful pre-, peri-, and post-operative evaluation of the mother and fetus by a multidisciplinary team.

As important Internet users, college students need to establish good cyber ethics to promote healthy development of the Internet and meet the needs of their own growth. The characteristics of college students' cyber ethics include hierarchy, self-discipline, orientation and particularity. Self-respect and respect for others;hon-est and trustworthy;fair and mutual benefit;attention to public welfare and participation;patriotic, studious, cre-ate a harmonious network should be college students' network moral norms.

Objective To assess the features of transcranial sonography (TCS) in Parkinson disease (PD) and Alzheimer disease (AD).Methods Totally 38 PD patients (PD group),28 AD patients (AD group) and 26 controls (control group)underwent TCS.The echogenicity of the substantia nigra,widths of third ventricle and parameters of middle cerebral artery among the three groups were analyzed.Results The ratio of hyperechogenicity of substantia nigra in PD group (31/38,81.58％) were higher than those in AD group (8/28,28.57％) and control group (3/26,11.54％;x2 =18.74,30.41,both P＜0.001),and there was no significant difference in hyperechogenicity of substantia nigra between AD group and control group (x2 =2.41,P=0.120).The widths of third ventricle in AD group ([0.82±0.14]cm) were wider than those in PD group ([0.63±±0.16]cm) and control group ([0.56±0.16]cm,both P＜0.001),and there was no significant difference in widths of third ventricle between PD group and control group (P=0.098).The mean velocities in bilateral middle cerebral artery in AD group were lower than that of in PD group and in control group (all P＜0.05).The pulsatility index in right middle cerebral artery in AD group were greater than that in PD group and control group (both P＜0.05).Conclusion According to the changes of echogenicity of substantia nigra,widths of third ventricle and parameters of middle cerebral artery,TCS may provide some useful information for diagnosis of PD and AD.
