Objective To disclose the inter-species differences among Papaver somniferum L, Papaver rhoeas L and Cannabis sativa L using AFLP analysis. MethodsThe root, stem, foliage, flower, seed of Papaver somniferum L, foliage of Papaver rhoeas L and Cannabis sativa L were collected respectively. DNA was isolated with AxyPrep Kit, and double-digested by EcoR I and Mse I, then oligonucleotide adapters were ligated. After Pre-amplification, selective amplification was performed using 6 pairs of fluorescent primer. The DNA fragments were analyzed using a CEQ 8000 DNA Fragment Analyzer. Results27 to 46, 5 to 20 and 4 to 31 pieces of amplified products were detected from Papaver somniferum L, Cannabis sativa L and Papaver rhoeas L respectively, and significant difference was observed among these three groups of products. The identical species-specific peaks were identified from root, stem, leaf, flower and seed DNA from the same Papaver somniferum L. ConclusionThe diacritical results from Papaver somniferum L, Papaver rhoeas L and Cannabis sativa L, as well as the identical results of different parts from the same plant demonstrated that AFLP analysis could be used possibly to determine the species origin of unknown plants samples.

Objective:To study the effect of comfort care to alleviate postoperative pain of tibial eminence fracture by fixation. Methods:55 patients with tibial eminence fracture between Apr 2013 and Mar 2015 in our hospital were selected and divided into observation group with 26 patients and control group with 29 cases according to the nursing methods. The control group was given the orthopaedic routine nursing method, and the observation group was given the comfortable nursing method to compare two groups of patients with postoperative pain and psychological status before and after the intervention (HAMA anxiety score and HAMD depression scale). Results:There were significant differences between two groups of patients with pain score after the intervention (t=9.545, P<0.05), and HAMA and HAMD scores decline. HAMA and HAMD scores in the observation group were significantly lower than that in the control group (t=11.593, t=10.628;P<0.05). Conclusion:Comfort care can significantly relieve postoperative pain of the tibial condyle spine fractures and improve postoperative anxiety and depression. It has good clinical application value.

BACKGROUND: It has been reported that magnesium sulfate(Mg2SO4)treatment has a satisfactory effect on brain ischemia-reperfusion injury, but its effect on spinal cord ischemic injury remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of intravenous administration of Mg2SO4 on spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury and further probe into its mechanism.DESIGN: Randomized controlled repeatedly measuring design based on the experimental animals.SETTING: Central research laboratory of a university hospital.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted in the Central Research Laboratory, Medical College of Xi' an Jiaotong University from April 2003 to June 2004. Twenty-seven New Zealand white rabbits with body mass of 1.9to 2. 5 kg were included. The rabbits were randomly divided into Mg2SO4group, normal saline group and sham-operation group with 9 rabbits in each group.METHODS: The lower segment of the kidney under abdominal aorta was occluded for 30 minutes and 48-hour reperfusion was performed to establish ischemia-reperfusion model of lumbosacral segment of spinal cord. Mg2SO4group (Group A, n = 9) received Mg2SO4 at the dose of 0. 25 mL/kg per hour throughout this procedure; the same volume of saline solution was used in normal saline group(Group B, n=9) . Animals of sham-operation group (Group C, n = 9) were anesthetized and received laparotomy without aortic occlusion. The somatosensory evoked potential(SEP) was detected before ischemia, 30 minutes after ischemia, and 1, 2, 8, 16 and 24 hours after reperfusion. Motor function score was assessed in Mg2SO4 and saline groups 24 and 48 hours after reperfusion. After reperfusion for 48 hours, the animals were killed and histopathological test was performed on the spinal cord.MAIN OUTCOM MEASURES: Motor function score, SEP monitoring and spinal histopathological test.RESULTS: The latency of SEP(Nt) was markedly longer 30 minutes after ischemia in Mg2SO4 group. It was obviously recovered during the first two hours after reperfusion compared with during ischemia, but was obviously prolonged after that. Waveform disappeared 30 minutes after ischemia in normal saline group. SEP amplitudes and latencies in sham-operation group did not change remarkably during the procedures and all the animals recovered without neurological deficits. At each reperfusion time point, the recovery of SEP(N1) latency was better in Group A than that in Group B( P ＜ 0.05). The average motor function score at 24 hours and 48 hours after reperfusion was significantly higher in Group A[ (3.7 ±0.5) and(3.4 ±0.7) points] than that in GroupB [(3.0±0.7) and (2.6±0.9) points](P ＜0.05). The normal nerve cell counting of spinal cord 48 hours after reperfusion in Mg2SO4 group(23. 4 ± 3. 4) was significantly higher than that in saline group (12.3 ±3.2)(P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: Intravenous Mg2SO4 administration may reduce spinal cord injury and preserve neurological function in transient spinal cord ischemia in rabbits.

Objective To observe the effect of acupuncture, moxibustion combined with bladder function training on the neurogenic bladder.Methods 64 patients were randomly divided into the treatment group and control group,treatment group was given acupuncture,moxibustion combined with bladder function training,while the control group was treated with simple bladder function training, then comparing the bladder function changes between two groups after a month.Results In the treatment group,the bladder capacity,residual urine volume,urinate rate were respectively ( 349.4 ±13.5 ) mL, ( 98.7 ±15.3 ) mL, 92.26% and the control group respectively ( 323.4 ± 17.8)mL,(127.8 ±17.8) mL,51.85%,the difference between the two groups were statistically significant ( t =5.48,5.60,χ2 =3.97,all P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture,moxibustion combined with bladder function train-ing can be effective in the treatment of neurogenic bladder,while improve the quality of patient's life.

This paper briefly analyzed and discussed the current status and major scientific challenges of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formulaology research. To promote formulaology research, a new strategy and corresponding technology, network formulaology, were proposed to reveal the complex interaction between functional chemome and biological responses network. The research framework and directions of network formulaology were also summarized and prospected.

OBJECTIVETo investigate diagnostic efficacy of transvaginal three-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (3D-HyCoSy) in assessing tubal patency with chromolaporoscopy.

METHODSA total of 157 infertile women underwent 3D-HyCoSy to evaluate tubal patency. Among these patients, 39 patients were also examined by chromolaporoscopy. The concordance of the two clinical assessment methods was analyzed by the Kappa coefficient test.

RESULTSAmong the 306 oviducts examined by 3D-HyCoSy, 99 (32.4%) were patent, 126 (41.2%) partially obstructed, and 81 (26.5%) completely obstructed. Diagnostic results with 3D-HyCoSy were not statistically different from those obtained in the 39 women (78 oviducts) who also underwent chromolaporoscopy, and the two methods showed a high concordance (k=0.747, P=0.000). The 3D-HyCoSy procedure had a sensitivity of 84.8% (28/33), a specificity of 96.2% (25/26), and positive and negative predictive values of 93.3% (28/30) and 86.2% (25/29) respectively.

CONCLUSIONTransvaginal 3D-HyCoSy can accurately reveal the spatial path and morphology of the oviduct and is a safe and effective method to evaluate tubal patency.
