The aim of the study is to establish a new method of quality evaluation and validate its feasibilities by the simultaneous quantitative assay of four lignanoids in Schisandra chinensis. A new quality evaluation method, quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker (QAMS), was established and validated with Schisandra chinensis. Four main lignanoids, schisandrin, schisantherin A, deoxyschizandrin and gamma-schizandrin, were selected as analytes and schisandrin as internal reference substance to evaluate the quality. Their contents in 13 different batches of samples, collected from different bathes, were determined by both external standard method and QAMS. The method was evaluated by comparison of the quantitative results between external standard method and QAMS. No significant differences were found in the quantitative results of four lignanoids in 13 batches of S. chinensis determined by external standard method and QAMS. QAMS is feasible for determination of four lignanoids simultaneously when some authentic standard substances were unavailable, and the developed method can be used for quality control of S. chinensis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the safety and efficacy of close reduction and percutaneous needle fixation for the treatment of anterior dislocation of sternoclavicular joint.

METHODSA retrospective analysis was performed with 6 cases of anterior sternoclavicular dislocation by close reduction and percutaneous needle fixation with Kirschner wire treated from January 2001 to February 2009, including 5 males and 1 female aged from 19 to 45 with an average of 28.8 years old. Among the 6 cases, 4 were on right lateral and 2 were on left lateral. The time from injured to treatment was from 6 hours to 12 days (averaged 4.5 days). The clinical effects were evaluated according to Rockwood scoring and the complications were observed.

RESULTSAll 6 patients were followed-up for 3 to 13 months (averaged 6 months). According to Rockwood scoring,the preoperative score was (7.00 +/- 0.89) points, postoperative score was (13.17 +/- 1.72) points; the results showed excellent in 5 cases and good in 1 case. No local infection, postoperative pain,recurrent dislocation,broken needle, and other complications were observed in this study.

CONCLUSIONThe treatment of anterior sternoclavicular joint dislocation with Kirschner wire minimally invasive fixation is an easy, reliable fixation with less complications.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of high semi-decubitus position in the second stage of labor in epidural analgesic delivery of primipara.Methods:A total of 120 women who gave birth in Hang-zhou women's Hospital from May 1,2021 to July 30,2021 were randomly divided into experimental group(n=60)and control group(n=60)by random number table method.The control group adopted supine position in the sec-ond stage of labor,and the experimental group transferred to high semi-supine position after the supine position was used applied for 30 minutes when the fetal head was not exposed.To compare the effects of different postur-al positions on the duration of the second stage of labor,mode of delivery,postpartum injury,perineal tearing,la-bor force experience and labor control,and neonatal asphyxia.Results:The duration of uterine opening to fetal head exposure,the duration of uterine opening to fetal head crown and the duration of second stage of labor in experimental group were shorter than those in control group.The rate of natural delivery of experimental group was higher than that of control group.The episiotomy rate and the second degree perineal laceration rate were lower than that of control group.The amount of blood loss during delivery and 2h postpartum of experimental group was less than that of control group.The scores of birth experience and birth control of experimental group were higher than those of control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in 1-minute Agpar score and 5-minute Agpar score between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions:The application of high semi-decubitus position under epidural labor analgesia promoted vaginal natural labor,shortened the time of second stage of labor,reduced episiotomy rate and perineal laceration de-gree,reduced postpartum hemorrhage,had positive labor force experience,and increased the sense of labor con-trol.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Jiangshabanxia nano-paste on nausea and vomiting in end-stage patients and its effect on the quality-of-life (QOL) in cancer patients. Methods 120 end-stage patients with nausea and vomiting symptoms above grade III were randomly divided into observation group and control group. They were treated with Jiangshabanxia nano-paste and placebo paste respectively. The paste patch was changed every 24 hours and used continuously for 7 days. The nausea and vomiting symptom score, the quality-of-life measurement score and KPS score of cancer patients in the two groups were observed to evaluate the curative effect. Results After 7 days of treatment, the symptom scores of nausea and vomiting in the observation group decreased significantly, the KPS score of the observation group increased, and the effective rate was higher than that in the control group. The score of QOL measurement showed that after treatment, the score of main symptom areas and other symptom areas (except external dyspnea, diarrhea and economic difficulties) in the observation group decreased, and the score of overall health area increased. After treatment, the score of main symptom areas and other symptom areas (except external dyspnea, diarrhea and economic difficulties) in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the scores of overall health area in the observation group were higher than those in the control group. Conclusion Jiangshabanxia nano-paste has a good clinical efficacy nausea and vomiting in end-stage patients, it also can improve the quality of life end-stage cancer patients.
