3.Dedifferentiated liposarcoma in proximal tibia accompanied by angiosarcoma: One case report
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(20):-
One case with dedifferentiated liposarcoma in proximal tibia accompanied by angiosarcoma was analyzed. The dedifferentiated liposarcoma was further analyzed by imaging, clinical and pathological features. One 51-year-old male patient was suspected to bone tumor due to space occupying lesion for 6 days in left proximal tibia and admitted in Changhai Hospital of Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA in May 2007. The clinical features, including onset features, physical examination, blood routine, imaging alterations, pathological characteristics, operation approach, and follow-up period were retrospectively analyzed. The tumor was treated by curettage and inactivation, iliac grafting, bone cement filling, tibial plateau T type plate and screw internal fixation and tumor tissue biopsy. However, tumor relapsed 40 days postoperatively, and the patient was treated by amputation surgery. Two weeks after surgery, the patient developed emptysis and died due to multiple organ failure. Dedifferentiated liposarcoma accompanied by angiosarcoma displays no noticeable characteristics in imaging, clinical manifestation, and laboratory examination, which make it difficult to diagnose it. This tumor is highly malignant, and has short disease course, and poor prognosis.

Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 1993;0(06):-
Objective To explore the animal model making method for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) caused by the disharmony of liver and spleen in TCM.Methods In order to define the period of the animal model making,the 32 neonatal rats were divided into 3 days group,6 days group,9 days group and control group.In order to determine the weight of the experimental rats,the 48 rats with different weight were divided into lower weight model group,lower weight control group,medium weight model group,medium weight control group,higher weight model group and higher weight control group.In order to decide the method of causing diarrhea,the 32 rats were divided into lactose enriched diet group,restraint stress group,lactose enriched diet plus restraint stress group,and a control group.The body weight and diarrhea rate of all groups were compared respectively.After the method of model making was decided,the 16 rats were divided into a model group and a control group,and 5-hydroxytryptamin (5-HT),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) of the two groups were compared for model-proving.Results Based on the results step by step,the best method was decided:the period of the animal model making was 6 days,rats with higher body weight should be subjects,and the lactose enriched diet combining with restraint stress should be used to induce diarrhea.Model-proving test:compared with the control group,5-HT and LDH decreased (P
6. Comparison on HPLC fingerprints between fraxini cortex and its eye drop
Chinese Herbal Medicines 2014;5(4):301-306
Objective: To compare the HPLC fingerprints of Fraxini Cortex and its eye drop. Methods: Using esculin and esculetin as reference substances, HPLC method was established for fingerprint chromatography of Fraxini Cortex and its eye drop. The similarity was analyzed by similarity evaluation and system cluster analysis. Results: For Fraxini Cortex, eight peaks were separated, among which four common peaks were obtained; for eye drop, eleven peaks were separated including six common peaks. Similarities of both fingerprints were good. Cluster analysis further showed that different sources resulted in the variance of ingredients in crude drug. Both materials and eye drop had some common peaks such as esculin and esculetin, on the other hand, they had some different peaks which might be caused by extracting process. Conclusion: HPLC fingerprint chromatogram could be applied for the quality control of Fraxini Cortex and its preparations; the pharmaceutical process may be responsible for the variance of ingredients. © 2013 Tianjin Press of Chinese Herbal Medicines.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of sorafenib alone or combination with transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)and percutaneous local cryotherapy(PLCT)for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma patients without operation opportunity. Methods Sixty-four advanced hepatocellular carcinoma patients were selected as our subjects,who were underwent treatment of sorafenib alone or combination with TACE and PLCT. Thirty-two cases with sorafenib therapy were served as sorafenib group and another 32 cases with sorafenib in combination with transarterial chemoembolization and PLCT were served as combination group. All patients were followed up for 6 - 32 months. The treatment efficacy and tumor development were recorded. Results All surgeries of the patients were succeed and no death or serious operation complications occurred. Of 64 patients, 11 were achieved a complete remission( CR),31 cases with partial remission( PR),14 cases with stable development(SD),and 8 cases with progressive disease(PD). In the sorafenib group,3 cases were with CR,11 patients with PR,12 with SD,and 6 patients with PD. In the combination group,8 patients were with CR,20 patients with PR,2 patients with SD and 2 patients with PD,and the difference was significant between the two groups(χ2 = 14. 028,P = 0. 003). The median periods to tumor progression were 20 and 53 weeks in the sorafenib group and the combination group,and the difference was significant( χ2 = 14. 773,P = 0. 000). Conclusion For hepatocellular carcinoma patients without operation opportunity,sorafenib combined with TACE and PLCT can increase the tumor remission rate and prolong the periods to tumor progression in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

BACKGROUND:Total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis accompanied with extra-articular deformity is stil chal enging. An individual replacement plan should be designed to obtain good mechanical axis and to recover suitable soft-tissue balance. OBJECTIVE:To observe the safety and feasibility of individual y designed one-stage total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis combined with ipsilateral femoral extra-articular deformity. METHODS:A total of eight patients with knee osteoarthritis combined with ipsilateral femoral extra-articular deformity were enrol ed in this study. According to preoperative plan, five patients underwent intra-articular compensatory osteotomy, and the remaining three received extra-articular corrective osteotomy. Multi-planar deformities as wel as soft-tissue conditions were recorded. Main outcome measures included the hospital for special surgery score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index score and alignments deviation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The patients were averagely fol owed up for 29 months. The hospital for special surgery score changed from preoperative 32.5 points to postoperative 87.5 points. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index score was increased from preoperative 37.1 points to postoperative 88.8 points (P<0.05). Mean mechanical axis deviation (either varus or valgus) changed from preoperative 17.1° to postoperative 1.4° (P<0.05). Al cases with extra-articular corrective osteotomy healed within 3 months, and none had postoperative infection, loosening or venous thromboembolic events. One patient was with 5° residual knee anti-sheets. Results verified that one-stage total knee arthroplasty procedures are effective in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis accompanied with ipsilateral femoral extra-articular deformity in accordance with individual preoperative plan.

Objective We aimed to study the optimal method for local compression following removal of needle after intravenous injection and protect patients' vein to the highest degree. Methods 620 patients were divided into the observation group and the control group with 310 cases in each group randomly. Comparison study was carried out by adopting interchange compression (routine method) and noninterchange compression (direct pressing with hypothenar). Results The incidence of pain, bleeding and subcutaneous stasis after removal of needle in the observation group was lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusions Local compression following removal of needle with hypothenar was superior to routine compression method and it was worth applying in clinics widely.
