Objective To investigate the replantation of complete severed fingertip when vein can't be repaired and only artery be repaired. Methods All 13 cases complete severed fingertips were replantated with only artery anastomosis but vein cannot be repaired.Low molecular weight heparin was applied to prevent blood clotting postoperation. Blood-letting by nail extraction or latero-incision were done in some cases.The survival fingers were observed. Results After 3-12 months followed-up,12 cases survived with satisfactory appearance and locomotion,2-PD of 2-7 mm,but 1 case was failed. Conclusion The replanted fingertip may survival with only artery anastomosis because of fewer tissue and faster recontruction of venous return.It would raise the survival rate of replanted fingertip by blood-letting by nail extraction or latero-incision according to the traumatic condition.

Objective To investigate antirnierobial resistance of comlnon pathogenic bacteria isolated from children's respiratory tract in Beijng friendship Hospital during the period between January 2004 and December 2006.Methods Forty-nine strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae,fifty-five strains of Staphylococcus aureus and fifteen strains of Group A β-hemolytic streptococcus were isolated from children with community-acquired respiratory tract infeetion in pediatric department of Beijng Friendship Hospital.Kirby-Bauer agar dilution method Was used to determine the susceptibility to antimicrobial agents.Results Ninety percent of Streptococcus pneumoniae strains were resistant to erythromycin.Penicillin-non-susceptible streptococcus pneumoniae accounted for 10%,while 90% of which were multi-drug resistant.For Staphylococcus aureu strains,the resistant rates of ampicillin,penicillin and oxacfllin were 86%,82%,and 9% respectively,and serere multi-drug resistance was found.Eighty percent of the group A β-hemolytic streptococcus strains were resistant to erythromycin,however all remained sensitive to penicillin and ampicillin.Conclusion The antimicrobials resistant pathogenic bacteria isolated from children with respiratory tract infection have become a severe prdblem.The resistant rates of macrolides are high for Streptococcus and Group A β-hemolytic streptococcus.MeticiUin resistant staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)strains were found in the study.Severe multi-drug resistance was found.Non β-lactam antibiotics should be avoided when respiratory tract bacterial infection occurred in children.

Objective To select and analyze the drug types for treatment of patients with diabetes in the older adults.Methods The clinical data including age,gender,disease duration,drugs (types and frequency) for 320 elderly cases with diabetes were retrospectivly analyzed Results With aging,duration of diabetes had been extended(P＜0.05),but no difference between the sex ratio.The frequency of insulin (32.2％) and metformin (29.7％)were the highest in the selective therapy for senile diabetes patients.But other types of drugs such as alpha glycosidase inhibitor (19.4 ％),sulfonylureas for promoting secrete (10.9 ％) and thiazolidinedione (7.8 ％) also occupied certain proportion.Conclusions The metformin has been widely applied for senile diabetes patients,and it is usually need to be in combination with other drugs and be paied more attention to monitoring in the whole process.

To analyze the polyps in the aspects of distribution, helicobacter pylori ( HP) infection and the use of proton pump inhibitors ( PPI) in different histological types of gastric polyps;to observe the morphosis under endos-copy histopathology and the surveillance situation in colonic polyps. The infection rates of HP in gastric hyperplasic polyps, inflammatory polyps and adenomatous polyps were 31.11%, 45.31% and 58.33%;the using rate of PPI among inflammatory polyps patients was higher. The main histopathological type of colonic polyps was adenomatous polyps;20 cases of colorectal polypectomy surveillance of 2 years had recurrence. The occurrence of gastric adeno-matous polyps may be related to HP infection;PPI had no obvious correlation with the pathological type of the gas-tric polyps. Colorectal adenoma should strengthen the surveillance colonoscopy of postpolypectomy.

Autophagy is an important homeostatic cellular recycling mechanism responsible for degrading injured or dysfunctional cellular organelles and proteins in all living cells. Aging is a universal phenomenon characterized by progressive deterioration of cells and organs due to accumulation of macromolecular and organelle damage. Growing evidences indicate that the rate of autophagosome formation and maturation and the efficiency of autophagosome/lysosome fusion decline with age. Dysfunctional autophagy has also been observed in age-related diseases. Autophagy disruption resulted accumulation of mutated or misfolded proteins is the essential feature of neurodegenerative disorders. However, in cancers, fibroproliferative diseases or cardiovascular diseases, autophagy can play either a protective or destructive role in different types of disease, and even in different stages of the same disease. The review will discuss the cellular and molecular mechanisms of autophagy and its important role in the pathogenesis of aging and age-related diseases, and the ongoing drug discovery strategies for therapeutic intervention.

A new method for continuous measurement of blood pressure (BP) via selecting characteristic parameters of pulse wave pertinent to BP is presented in this paper. In order to validate the precision of the measurement, we have developed a Tonometer. The results of the instrument based on this method are precise if the subjects are at rest. This instrument could be used for BP monitoring of critically ill patients and in common medical researches; it might be applied to BP monitoring during spaceflight and in daily life after movement artifact being restrained.

Objective:To investigate the ameliorated effects of n-butanol extract from Radix Pseudostellariae(RP) on rat experimental cardiopulmonary Injury induced by acute myocardial infarction.Methods:The experimental rat cardiac and lung injury was reproduced by acute cardiac infraction ligating left coronary artery for 4 weeks.Cardiac function were assayed by hemodynamics,heart index and lung index were detected by weighting,pathologic change was checked out by histophathology,and cardiac infarction size was assayed by image analysis system.Results:After operation 4 weeks,cardiac function was disturbed according to the results of hemodynamics.Cardiac and lung index,and cardiac infarction size was significantly increased in model group.Results of histopathology indicated that cardiac myocyte decrease,cardiac fibrosis functional disorder of the heart,increase of heart index and lun index,inflammatory cell infiltration,and pulmonary congestion and edema and so on indicated the model was succeed.Continued administration of n-butanol extract from RP for 4 weeks can remarkable ameliorate cardiac function,decrease the cardiac and lung index,and attenuate the heart failure pathological change.Conclusion:N-butanol extract from RP can alleviate rat cardiopulmonary injury induced by acute myocardial infarction.The present research provided the pharmacological base of replenishing qi for invigorating the spleen and promoting body fluid production for nourishing lung.

Background Hypertension,ischemia and hypoxia induce the increase of glutamate level in eye tissue and furthermore produce excitatory damage and apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells(RGCs).At present,the study on the protection of traditional Chinese medicine on glutamate-induced retinal excitatory damage is lack.objective Present study was to explore the protective effects of Huoxue huayu decoction,a Chinese herbal recipe,on RGCs in acute ocular hypertension model. Methods Fony-five healthy clean Wistar rats were divided into three groups randomly.The acute ocular hypertension models were established in 40 Wistar rats by injecting the normal saline solution into the anterior chamber to elevate the intraocular pressure for 60 minutes.Huoxue huayu decoction of 4 ml was administered intragastrically once per day in 20 model rats.Other matched 5 normal Wistar rats served as normal control group.The rats were sacrificed on 1,3,7 and 14 days after modeling and the retinas were isolated for the histopathologieal and uhrastructure examination.Expression of glutamate transporter in the retina of acute ocular hypertension and normal rat retina were detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.The utilization of animals followed the Association for Research in vision and Ophthalmology. Results After acute ocular hypertension.the retina thickness attenuated and the numbers of RGCs decreased under the light microscope in 1,3,7 and 14 days after modeling in comparison with normal control rats.The degradation of the organelle and edema as well as changes of cell nuclei were seen in model rats under the transmission electron microscopy.The expression of glutamate transporter mRNA in model group and glutamate transporter group was rapidly elevated in the first day (P<0.05),descended at the third days(P<0.01)and returned to the normal level 7 days later(P>0.05).Conclusion Huoxue huayu decoction can protect the retina against RGCs damage in the acute ocular hypertension by elevating the expression of glutamate transporters in retina.
