Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture plus osteopathic manipulation in treating thoracic facet joint disorder.Methods Sixty patients with thoracic facet joint disorder were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 30 cases each. The treatment group received electroacupuncture plus osteopathic manipulation and the control group, osteopathic manipulation alone. Treatment was given 15 days as a course for a total of two courses. The pain rating index (PRI) score, the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and the Present Pain Intensity (PPI) scale score were recorded in the two groups before and after treatment. The clinical therapeutic effects were compared between the groups.Results The cure rate and the total efficacy rate were 43.3% and 90.0%, respectively, in the treatment group and 26.7% and 73.3%, respectively, in the control group; there were statistically significant differences between the two groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant pre-/post- treatment differences in the PRI score, the VAS score and the PPI score in the two groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the PRI score, the VAS score and the PPI score between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture plus osteopathic manipulation is an effective way to treat thoracic facet joint disorder.

This paper deals with the study on the sexual and vegetative reproduction of Sargassum fusiforme. The authors also propose a inference that Sargassum fusiforme relies mainly on the vegetative reproduction of rhizoid while making sexual reproduction subsidiary to maintain the population propagation.

Objective To explore the effect of fenofibrate and atorvastatin on hyperlipoidemia and hyperuricemia.Methods 55 cases were randomly divided into 2 groups. 30 cases in the treatment group were give Fenofibrate (200rmg/d) and 25 cases in control group were given atorvastatin(10mg/d). And two groups given 8 days for all patients. The therapeutic effect, blood-fat and blood uric acid levd, and complication in two groups were compared. Results There were conspicuous effect of fenofibrate and atorvastatin on hyperlipoidemia and hyperuricemia. The index of TG, TC had significant differences between the two groups. The index of acidum uricum was higher in control group.The complication had no significant differences between two groups. Conclusion Both fenofibrate and atorvastain were effective drug for hyperuricemia and hyperlipoidemia,and could reduce TC,TG, HDLC and LDLC in the short time,and could decrease the risk factor of cerebrovascular disease.

Tumor stem cells have abilities of high proliferation,serf-renewal and multi-directional dif-ferentiation ;which is closely responsible for tumor' s survival and recurrence. A minor portion of myeloma stem cells exist in multiple myeloma. The research of myeloma stem cells' origins, phenotypic analyses, signaling pathways, drug resistance and other biological characteristics will do great efforts to the effective therapy of mul-tiple myeloma.
