Acute leukemia is a common malignancy tumor in children. Hemorrhage is one of the common symptoms and causes of death. The abnormality of platelet count, quality and function can cause bleeding. The understanding of platelet function and platelet parameters can provide an important clinical information for children with acute leukemia in evaluating the effect of treatment,the function of bone mar-row and the prevention of bleeding and so on.

In this paper, issues of acupuncture using target points and depth of needling were discussed based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine acupoints and combined with anatomical and neurological research of Western medicine. The theoretical evidence of acupuncture on nerve foramen and ganglion and the reasons for being nonstandard operating on acupoints were analyzed. This study summarized the method of using acupuncture at Xiaguan (ST7), Cuanzhu (BL2), Sibai (ST2) and Jiachengjiang acupoints to align with the spheno-palatine ganglion and additional nerve foramen (supraorbital, infraorbital and mental foramina) to treat primary trigeminal neuralgia. This study adhered to the Standards for Reporting Interventions in Clinical Trials of Acupuncture and helped in development of study standardization for acupuncture processes. The authors hoped that should help in significantly diminishing risk and improving therapeutic efficacy in clinic.

Objective To explore the indications of physiotherapy and operative treatment for gluteal muscles contracture, and discuss the principles and necessity of classification in order to facilitate clinical management. Methods The standards of classification of gluteal muscles contracture were based on the signs and pathological examination, It consisted of three stages upon our standards. 210 patients could be divided into stage Ⅰof 23 cases, stage Ⅱand Ⅲ of 187 cases. For the patients of stageⅠ, physiotherapy was performed; However, all cases of stageⅡand Ⅲ, operative treatment was adopted by small superomedial incision above the greater trochanter. Furthermore, in the cases of stage Ⅱ, tight fibrotic gluteal muscles and thick contracted fascia lata should be released; For stage Ⅲ lesion, the release should be extended to the capsule of hip, and incision of the posterior capsule was necessary. Results In the group of stageⅠ, The symptoms and signs were relieved by maneuver , the rate of excellent and good results was 39%; while in the group of stageⅡand Ⅲ, it was 97% by operative treatment. Conclusion The staging system of gluteal muscles contracture could demonstrate exactly the severity degree of the disease, and is useful in choosing therapeutic method. Non-operatiive method can obtain satisfactory results in about 1/3 cases of stage Ⅰof gluteal muscles contracture; operative method is indicated for the patients of stage Ⅱand Ⅲ.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestation,pathogenesis and imaging features of hemichorea associated with hyperglycemia in primary diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods Analyze the clinical manifestations,the neuroimaging features and the treatment of the three patients with hemichorea induced by hyperglycaemia in primary DM,and review the literatures about this disease.Results All of the three cases had a long history of uncontrolled diabetes,among whom,two were non-ketotic hyperglycemic patients and one was ketotic hyperglycemic patient.All of them had an acute onset hemichorea which was almost continuous during awakeness and ceased during sleep.The early CT findings in this disorder were high density in the caudate nucleus,putamen and/or globus pallidus on the side contralateral to the involved limbs,but showed decreased attenuation or completely resolved in about a month.T1-weighted MR images in all cases showed high-signal intensities without edema or mass effect in the diseased region which decreased after several months,while the T2-weighted images were more variable.Conclusion Hemichorea induced by hyperglycemia often happens in the patients with poorly controlled DM,and both of the non-ketotic hyperglycemic and the ketotic hyperglycemic state can be the cause.In the major affected region-corpora striata,CT shows hyperdense lesions,T1-weighted MR images show hyperintense lesions and T2-weighted images show variable lesions in the early time.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy of acitretin combined with TGP in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris. METHODS:81 patients were randomized into control group(n=40)and treatment group(n=41). Control group were treated with 0.5 mg?kg-1?d-1acitretin then the dose of acitretin was adjusted to 0.1～0.2 mg?kg-1?d-1after clinical symptom improved.Treat-treatment course. Blood and urine routine,liver and kidney function and the level of blood lipid of 2 groups were detected before and after 8 weeks treatment as well as ADR. RESULTS:The total response rate was 90.2% for treatment group and 62.5% for control group,there were significant difference(P

Objective To investigate the role of spinal cord opioid receptors in the antinocieeptive effect of propefol in rats. Methods Male SD rats weighing 220-280 g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal chloral hydrate 300 mg/kg. Intratbecal (IT) catheter was placed at L5～6 interspace. Correct placement was confirmed by lower extremity motor block after injection of 2% lidocaine 15 μl via the iv catheter. Animals which were lame or paralyzed were excluded. Ninety SD rats in which IT catheters were successfully placed were randomly divided into 9 groups (n = 10 each): group Ⅰ propofol 10μg IT (P);group Ⅱ dimethyl suipbexide (DMSO-solvent for propofol) 5 μl IT (D);group Ⅲ artificial cerebral spinal fluid (ACSF) 5 μl IT;group Ⅳ propoful 10 μl + naloxone 15 μg IT (PN);group Ⅴ DMSO 5 μl IT + naloxone 15 μg IT (DN);group Ⅳ propofol 10μg IT + CTOP Ⅰμg IT (PC);group Ⅶ DMSO 5 μl IT + CTOP 1μg IT (DC);group Ⅷ propofol 10 μg IT + ICI 174, 864 1 μg IT (PI) and group ⅨDMSO 5 μl 1T + ICI 174, 864 1 μg IT (DI). In group Ⅳ-Ⅸ naloxone or CTOP (μ-receptor antagonist) or ICI 174, 864 (δ-receptor antagonist) was injected 5 min after propofol/DMSO. Pain threshold was measured before the first drug administration (T0) and at 10 min (T1), 20 min (T2) and 40 min (T3) after the first drug administration using hot water tail-withdrawal test. The latency for withdrawal of the tail from hot water was recorded. Results The pain threshold was significantly higher in group P, PN, PC and PI than in group D, DN, DC and DI respectively. The pain threshold was significantly increased at T1.2 compared with the baseline value at T0 in group P, PN, PC and PI. The pain threshold was significantly lower at T3 than at T1 and T2 in group P, PN, PC and PI. The pain threshold was significantly lower after drug administration in group PN and PI than in group P and PC. Conclusion Spinal cord δ-oploid receptors are involved in the anfinocicepfive effect of propofol.

Acute rejection is one of the serious early postoperative complications after liver transplantation.Many studies have shown that acute rejection was mainly mediated by T cells,while humoral factors were responsible for chronic rejection.However,accumulating evidences have demonstrated that humoral immune factors also played an important role in early acute rejection and usually resulted in severe adverse events.Here we clarify the role of humoral immunity in liver transplant rejection,which may help guide the clinical management of such patients with humoral rejection after liver transplantation.

BACKGROUND:Previous study has found that hsa-miR-182 is probably related to the apoptosis-related genes such as cytochrome C (Cycs C) and calcineurin subunit CnB (PPP3R1) in nucleus pulposus cells.
OBJECTIVE:To determine whether miR-182 plays a regulatory role in nucleus pulposus cel apoptosis by detecting the relative gene expression levels after transfecting miR-182 with Cycs C and PPP3R1 into nucleus pulposus cel s via plasmid delivery.
METHODS:After a bioinformatics prediction about miR-182, miR-182 and target genes were transfected into the nucleus pulposus cel s, and at the same time, blank control group was established. Then the expression levels of the target genes were detected through cel lysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:miR-182 significantly inhibited the expression of Cycs C in nucleus pulposus cel s compared with the blank control group (P<0.05). Compared with the blank control group, miR-182 made no inhibitory effect on the expression of PPP3R1. These findings suggest that miR-182 may play a regulatory part in nucleus pulposus cel apoptosis by inhibiting the expression of Cycs C.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical effects and safety of sequential therapy of Ginkgo biloba extract preparation for elderly acute cerebral infarction,and to evaluate its pharmacoeconomics. METHODS:Totally 98 patients with acute cerebral infarc-tion selected from neurology department of our hospital during Aug. 2014-Aug. 2015 were divided into control group and test group according to random number table,with 49 cases in each group. Both groups received routine therapy of antiplatelet aggregation, microcirculation improvement. Control group was additionally given Shuxuening injection 10 mL,ivgtt,qd,for consecutive 21 d. Test group was additionally given Shuxuening injection 10 mL,ivgtt,qd,for 7-10 d;and then given G. biloba tablet instead,1 tablet,po ,tid,for 21 d in total. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were compared as well as ESS score,ADL score,blood flow in-dexes and blood lipid indexes before and after treatment,and adverse drug reaction. Cost-minimization analysis was used for phar-macoeconomic evaluation. RESULTS:After treatment,total response rate of control group and test groups were 87.23% and 83.33%,without statistical significance (P>0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in ESS score,ADL score,blood flow indexes and blood lipid indexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,ESS score and ADL score of 2 groups were increased significantly,and whole blood viscosity,plasma viscosity,hematocrit,fibrinogen content,TC and TG were decreased significantly;there was statistical significance with before treatment(P<0.05);there was no statistical significance be-tween 2 groups(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). The average cost of control group and test group were (7060.9 ± 234.8) yuan and (5800.7 ± 149.5) yuan,with statistical significance (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The sequential therapy of G. biloba extract preparation is similar to intravenous dirpping in the treatment of elderly acute cerebral infarction in therapeutic efficacy and safety. The sequential therapy is better in economics field.
