Objective:To compare the content of polydatin and emodin between polygonum cuspidatum pieces and dispensing gran-ules to provide theoretical basis for the improvement of preparation process of the granules. Methods:An HPLC method with linear gra-dient elution was used to determine the content of polydatin and emodin in the pieces and dispensing granules, and the difference in the two contents was compared. Results: The content of polydatin and emodin in polygonum cuspidatum pieces met the requirement de-scribed in China pharmacopoeia, which was lower than that in the dispensing granules, and the contents of the two components in the commercial dispensing granules were not equivalent to the labeled amount, which was 1/15 and 1/27 of that in the pieces. Conclu-sion:The transport rate of the traditional preparation process of dispensing granules is with poor efficiency, which should be improved.

Objective To explore the value of applying personalized medicine in the clinical teach-ing of glioma surgery. Methods Totally 80 7-year program undergraduates were divided into experimental class and control class randomly, with 40 cases in each group. The experimental class received personalized medical teaching through introducing idea and method of personalized medicine. The control class received conventional teaching. The effect of teaching was evaluated by questionnaire and examination. The data were analyzed through Chi-square and t-test test. Result Questionnaire survey of satisfaction showed that 37 students of experimental class (92.5%) were interested in the new course. Questionnaire survey of teaching effect showed that in experimental class 36 students (90%) felt it could increase learning interest, 37 students (92%) believed it improved glioma diagnosis and treatment, 34 students (85%) felt their medical view ex-panded, 38 students had consolidated clinical thinking, and 32 students (80%) improved negotiation with patients. All issues were significantly better than control class (P<0.05). Meanwhile, statistical difference was found in average score between experiment class and control class [(88.71 ±6.54) vs. (76.49 ±7.32)] (P=0.000). Conclusion The introduction of personalized medicine concept helps medical students to make personalized diagnosis and treatment plan for glioma patients, and is conducive to the cultivation of their clinical thinking ability and evidence based medicine concept, which is worthy of promotion.

Most of the anticancer drugs have some limitations in clinical application,such as poor solubility,low targeting and cytotoxicity to normal tissue and organ.The application of drug carriers offers a solution of these problems to a certain extent.In recent years,some materials such as polymers,liposomes,carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were used as carriers of anticancer drugs.The utilization of these carriers improved drug targeting and reduced adverse reactions by targeted modification of carriers which ensured the slow release of the drugs and maintained the plasma concentration.In these carriers,CNTs,as a novel nano-material,have attracted more attention in nanomedical applications.CNTs not only possess nanoscaled diameter,hollow structure and large aspect ratio,resulting in large drug capacity,but also can selectively absorb near infrared lights and transform them into thermal energy,according to the research finding.The functionalized drug-loaded CNTs in combination with thermotherapy shows potential,which is expected to become a new targeting therapy of cancer.In this paper,the basic structure of CNTs,the application of CNTs as drug carriers,and the recent development of functionalized CNTs as drug carriers combined with thermotherapy in tumor therapy were summarized.

The knowledge absence of neurosurgical regional anatomy is the major shortcoming which makes seven-year program medical students feel difficult in studying neurosurgical special course.The reasons for this phenomenon include the limited teaching time for basic medical course and the continuous progress in the field of neurological anatomy.The teacher should make good use of clinical resources to carry on the additional teaching of neurosurgical regional anatony.The detailed plans include small-class teaching and individual case analysis using the data of neuroimaging and angiography of the brain and spinal cord.All these measures are intend to let the students grasp of the basic knowledge clinical neurosurgery during the internship and make the smooth transition from interns to doctors,providing references for other department.

Objective To discuss how to use the core elements of international classification of functioning,disability and health(ICF) as a guide in stroke operation treatment to develop targeted,effective therapy plan and rehabilitation goals,establish individualized treatment of rehabilitation,and to observe the effect of limb movement function in stroke patients. Methods Sixty cases patients with stroke and aged from 40 to 65 years old were selected. The body function and structure of all stroke patients were marked by comprehensive evaluation scores of The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale ( NIHSS ) and Fugl?Meyer assessment. And then they were randomly divided into two groups,30 cases in each group. The observation group used the Chinese version of brief ICF Core Sets for evaluation, and set individualized treatment according to the results of the assessment;The control group, according to the conventional rehabilitation process, involved in training routine physical therapy. Again 8 weeks after treatment for patients with evaluation,the assessment results was compared with the results of the first assessment. Results Before treatment, the NIHSS, Fugl?Meyer assessment and Chinese version of brief ICF core elements scale scores for the observation group were 7. 95±2. 37,34. 5±4. 0 and 82. 15±17. 96,for the control group were 7. 58±2. 25,34. 8±4. 0 and 81. 55±18. 78. After treatment,the above three rating scale scores, for the observation group were improved to 4. 78 ± 1. 63, 56. 3 ± 4. 2, 60. 45 ±11. 04,for the control group were improved to 5. 13±1. 75,48. 1±3. 8,73. 56±16. 89. The two groups were significantly improved ( observation group:t=4. 94, 15. 51, 18. 59, P<0. 05;control group:t=3. 17, 14. 66, 12. 33,P<0. 05). After treatment,compared with the control group of three rating scale scores(5. 13±1. 75,48. 1
±3. 8 and 73. 56±16. 89),the observation group(4. 78±1. 63,56. 3±4. 2 and 60. 45±11. 04) improved more apparently(t=3. 15,14. 54,15. 45,P<0. 05) . Conclusion Guided by the idea of ICF and scale,with the demand of the patients as the center,to develop personalized physical therapy,can achieve more productive and more targeted rehabilitation goals.

Objective To investigate the surgical techniques and clinical effects of anterior retropharyngeal approach in treatment of C2/3 fracture and dislocation.Methods Twelve patients with C2/3 fracture and dislocation treated via anterior retropharyngeal approach between November 2011 and April 2013 were included in the study.There were 7 males and 5 females aged from 19 to 65 years (mean,35 years).Primary pathologies included 7 patients with traumatic C3 fracture,2 with Hangman fracture and 3 with fracture and dislocation of the anteroinferior margin of C2 vertebrae.C2-C4 vertebrae were exposed using anterior retropharyngeal approach,followed by C2/3 discectomy or C3 corpectomy,decompression,interbody cage fusion or titanium mesh cage fusion,and anterior internal fixation.Results Exposure of lesion was sufficient for all patients and all operations were completed under direct vision,with mean operation time of 140 minutes and mean blood loss of 120 ml.One patient with reduced tone after operation gradually recovered in a week; one with dysphagia after operation recovered in 3 months; one with skin necrosis 7 days after operation was recovered by changing dressing; for the rest,there were no complications of incision hematoma,infection,or asphyxia.Ten patients were followed up for mean 15 months,which showed bony fusion in mean 6 months.At final follow-up,no implant loosening or displacement occurred.Conclusion Anterior retropharyngeal approach to C2/3 fracture and dislocation provides sufficient exposure of lesions,minor trauma,and less bleedings and complications,but as the local anatomy is complicated,there indeed exists a learning curve of the approach.

Objective: To investigate the effects of the link between overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on leptin and visfatin levels. Methods: Males without T2DM and male patients with T2DM hospitalized in Lishui Municipal Central Hospital from January to June, 2017 were enrolled. Subjects' age and medical history of diseases were collected. The height and body weight were measured, and the body mass index (BMI) was estimated. The leptin and visfatin levels were determined, and compared between patients with and without T2DM, and between patients with and without overweight/obesity. The effect of the link between overweight/obesity and T2DM on leptin and visfatin levels was examined using a generalized linear regression model. Results: There were 66 patients with T2DM, with a mean age of (49.70±9.45) years and a mean diabetes duration of (4.99±4.46) years, and there were 64 patients without T2DM, with a mean age of (43.89±0.20) years. The leptin [ (3.17±0.36) vs. (3.03±0.30) ng/mL; t=2.387, P=0.018] and visfatin levels [ (29.14±3.16) vs. (21.81±3.32) ng/mL; t=12.900, P<0.001] were significantly greater in T2DM patients than in patients without T2DM. The leptin level was significantly greater in patients with overweight/obesity than in those without overweight/obesity [ (3.27±0.32) vs. (2.92±0.26) ng/mL; t=6.634, P<0.001], and the visfatin level was significantly lower in patients with overweight/obesity than in those without overweight/obesity [(24.38±5.14) vs. (26.71±4.36) ng/mL; t=2.780, P=0.006]. Generalized linear regression analysis showed interacting effects of overweight/obesity and T2DM on leptin (β=0.286, P=0.003) and visfatin levels (β=2.709, P=0.008). Conclusion The interaction between overweight/obesity and T2DM affects leptin and visfatin levels.

Objective To evaluate the value of electrospun polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) nanofibers with different topological structures as scaffolds for growth of Schwann cells (SCs).Methods Electrospun PMMA nanofibers with random or aligned topological structures were fabricated and measured with biocompatibility.Lentivirus-transfected green fluorescent protein was used as the reporting gene to monitor form and growth manner of SCs on different substrates and dependency of cell body and process with fiber structure,with PMMA thin films served as the control.Results Electrospun PMMA nanofibers revealed good biocompatibility and could exert contact guidance to the growth of SCs.Topological structures of the electrospun nanofibers influenced cell morphology.SCs were aligned with the orientation of substrate fibers and form longer cell process when growing on aligned nanofibers (P ＜0.01).Primary SCs preferred to follow the cue of aligned nanofibers compared to random fibers.Conclusion Aligned electrospun PMMA nanofibers have the potentiality as transplantable scaffolds for loading SCs after neural injury.

AIM: To investigate the effect of peribulbar anesthesia on intraocular pressure(IOP)and ocular amplitude pulse(OPA).METHODS: Thirty-two consecutive adult patients with monocular cataract enrolled in this study. IOP and OPA were measured with dynamic contour tonometer(DCT)before and 3, 10 minutes after administration of lidocaine anesthesia. Data were analyzed with software SPSS 11.5.RESULTS: The IOP remained stable in the injected eyes and the non-injected eyes after administration of lidocaine anesthesia. The OPA was significantly decreased after injection of anesthesia agent in the injected eyes. The OPA in the non-injected eyes increased significantly 3 minutes after injection of the anesthesia agent, returning to preinjection level 10 minutes after the injection.CONCLUSION: Peribulbar anesthesia leads to decrease of OPA and shows no effect on IOP in the injected eyes.
