Objective To investigate the effect of batroxobin on the plasma levels of endothelin (ET) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI). Methods 60 patients with ACI were randomly divided into therapy group(n = 30) and control group(n = 30),500 ml of 5% GS plus 1.0g ramme of Troxerutin was intravenously dripped par day and ticlopidine 250mg/day in the control group. Based on the control group therapy,Batroxobin was intravenously dripped with 10U on the 1st day and 5U on the 3rd and 5th day for seven days. The plasma levels of ET and CGRP were detected pre and post treatment by radioimmunoassay. Results Plasma levels of ET and CGRP in batroxobin therapy group post treatment ( 81.25±27.38 ) ; ( 44. 13±13.30) ng/L were significantly different from those pre treatment(109. 83±38.24) ; (24. 73±13.59) ng/L (all P＜0. 01 ) ,and were also significantly different from those post treatment in the control group(98.07±30. 39) ; (37.02±12. 41 )ng/L (all P＜0. 01 ). Conclusion Batroxobin can accommodate the equilibration between ET and CGRP, and protect brain cell and blood vessel endothelial cell.

Objective: To analyze the influences of implementing essential medicine system on primary medical institutions and give suggestions. Methods: Using system dynamics method to construct the compensation mechanism model for primary medical institutions. Compare the growth in revenue and expenditure of primary medical institutions before and after essential medicine system implementation. Results: After the implement of essential medicine system, the growth in total expenditure and total income of primary medical institutions is steadier; when the annual growth rate of government financial subsidies invested more than 13%, the growth in total receipts will keep balance. Conclusion: It’s better to guarantee the government financial subsidies invested in time, raise medical service price properly and establish comprehensive compensation mechanism for implementing compensation mechanism of primary medical institutions.

Objective To evaluate the effect of minocycline on the long-term cognitive function after partial hepatectomy in mice.Methods Sixty-four male C57BL/6 mice,aged 3 months,weighing about 20 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =16 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),partial hepatectomy group (group O),PBS group,and minocycline group (Mino group).At 3 days after partial hepatectomy,the rats underwent Morris water maze test.The animals were sacrificed and their hippocampi were immediately removed for determination of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) mRNA (using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) expression in the nuclcar protein of the cells (using Western blot).After the mice regained consciousness after operation,minocycline 50 mg· kg-1 · d-1 was injected intraperitoneally for 30 consecutive days in Mino group,while the equal volume of PBS was given instead of minocycline in group PBS.The parameters mentioned above were then recorded.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency and swimming distance were significantly prolonged,and the expression of TNF-α mRNA,IL-6 mRNA and NF-κB was up-regulated in group O (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group PBS,the escape latency and swimming distance were significantly shortened,and the expression of TNF-α mRNA,IL-6 mRNA and NF-κB was down-regulated in group Mino (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Minocycline can improve the long-term cognitive function after partial hepatectomy in mice and inhibition of inflammatory responses in hippocampi is involved in the mechanism.

Objective To discuss X-ray signs of cervica spondylosis.Methods Complete information on 327 cases of cervical spondylosis was analyzed retrospectively.Results These were 245 cases of vertebral spur,accounting for 75％ ;210 cases of cervical curve changes,accounting for 62％ ; 154 cases of disc stenosis,accounting for 47 ％ ; 137 cases of forainal stenosis stenosis,accounting for 42％ ;135 case of luschka j iont degeneration,accounting for41％ ;124 cases of neck ligament calcification,accounting for 38％.Conclusion Vertebral bone spur,luschka jiont degeneration and disc and foraminal stenosis were important signs of cervical spondylosis.X-ray diagnosis of cervical spondylosis had an important value.

Objective To explore the characteristics of etiology,clinical,electroencephalogram(EEG) and prognosis of infantile spasms(IS) with focal seizures(FS).Methods The significance of age onset,seizure patterns and atteration,etiology,video-EEG(VEEG) and evolution of FS correlating to epileptic spasms(ES),which occurred in 12 cases with IS by means of clinical observation,cranial CT or MRI,VEEG monitory and follow up were investigated.Twelve cases were divided into group A,B,C according to the stages of FS occurring prece-ding,coinciding and following ES.Results Ten cases with IS were identified from focal cortical dysplasia,tuberous scleroses complex,temporal lobe cyst or scleroses and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and others.Clinical manifestation presented FS at certain times during the course of the disease,and other characteristics of frequent attacks,asymmetric spasms or tonic spasms,some atypical seizures in the eyes and the head,motionless staring and focal motor seizures and other.The correlation of ES to FS occurred during one ictal episode as follows:FS→ES(6 cases),ES→FS→ES(1 case),ES→FS(3 cases).FS appeared more frequently,atypical,predominantly involving ocular,facial,oral movement or generalized convulsion,migrating or alternating seizures,associated with epileptic discharges of posterior parietal-occipital and parietal-temporal-occipital origins in group A and early period of group B;whereas in the late period of group B and group C,FS occurred less frequently and more stable,presenting complex partial seizures or secondarily generalized seizures originated mainly from frontal and surrounding areas in the lateralized or bilateral hemispheres.Regarding the natural evolution and development of IS,2 cases with early FS developed into IS;6 cases with IS evolved into Lennox-Gastaut syndrome or symtomatic generalized epilepsy,4 cases got into FS,1 case maintained in a peculiarly epileptic state with FS as well as ES until the operation at 4.5 years old,and the other case was not identified clearly.Conclusions IS coincided with FS is a special kind of aged-related FS associated with secondarily generalized seizures and epileptic encephalopathy.The multiple etiology,seizure patterns,ictal-interictal EEG,clinical evolution and prognosis of the disorder,indicate a complicated interaction of the immature cortico-subcortical abnormalities in the critical developmental period and thereafter,can be identified as a peculiar form of clinical epileptic syndrome.

Objective:To investigate the possibility and feasibility of the simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with tumor excision in patients suffering from tumor combined with coronary artery disease(CAD). Methods:From August 2000 to July 2006, ten patients who were suspected of tumor (four patients suffered from urinary system tumor, two digestive system tumor, and four pulmonary tumor) with coronary artery disease were successfully treated by simultaneous surgeries. Surgical incisions were chose by the different tumor position. All carried on the CABG before tumor excision except one case. The two cases had cardiopulmonary bypass CABG, the rest eight had off-pump CABG. Follow-up was conducted after operation. Results:The combined operations were satisfied. There was no in-hospital mortality, no postoperative hemorrhage, no myocardial ischemia or infarction, with few complications. Postoperative in-hospital stay was 10-34 days, average 22.4 days. All discharged in cure. One patient lost the follow-up. Nine patients were followed up from six months to seven years three months. Two patients died from metastasis, and the others survived with satisfied follow-up without cardiovascular events. Conclusion:The simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting with tumor excision for patients who suffer from either CAD with benign or malignant tumor is safe and feasible with satisfied short-and long-term survival.
