Objective To comparison anterior cervical decompression and plating techniques for CSM between under microscope and traditional method retrospectively, investigate clinical result of surgery under microscope. Methods Sixty-seven patients with CSM underwent surgery of anterior cervical decompression and plating techniques were evaluated retrospectively from January 2008 to June 2010. Thirty-three patients underwent operation under microscope; thirty-four patients underwent traditional operation. The operating time, bleeding volume during operating and poster operating, walking time post-operation and complication were observed. Clinical outcomes were assessed by Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA), Image of before and after operation. Results Microsurgery operation time averaged of 100 minutes. Bleeding volume during the operation averaged of 60 ml, and after operation averaged of 40 ml. The JOA scores were improved from 8.43 pre-operatively to 14.70. Six months post operation, the average rage of JOA improvement were 83.2%. Traditional operation time averaged of 115 minutes. Bleeding volume during operation averaged of 100 ml, and after operation averaged of 50 ml. The JOA scores were improved from 7.45 pre-operatively to 11.84. Six months post operation, the average rage of JOA improvement were 82.1%. There were difference between two groups(P ＞ 0.05) in the JOA scores. No statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05) in bleeding volume and operating time. Conclusion The operation under microscope is restored significantly than the traditional method in bleeding volume, the surgical field, safety of operation, time of recovery and so on.

Objective To explore the effect and adverse reaction of priming regimen CAG in treatment of acute myeloid leukemia in elderly.Methods 32 elderly patients with acute myelogenous leukemia were treated with CAG regimen and 25 cases with standard chemotherapy regimen( DA regimen). The effect and adverse reaction were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference of the complete remission rate and effective rate between the two groups. The recovery time of bone marrow and death rate of CAG the regimen group were superior to those of the DA group. Conclusion CAG regimen was effctive and safe for elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Objective To discuss the surgical outcome of fenestration assistant by microscopy for single-level lumbar disc protrusion (LDH), compared with tradition laminotomy and discectomy. Methods From January 2008 to January 2010, forty-eight patients underwent traditional open discectomy and 40 underwent microscopy surgery. The lumbar disc protrusion involved L3- L4 level in 12 cases, L4-L5 level in 46 cases, and L5-S1 level in 30 cases; preoperative JOA score was 8-19 points (average 12.9 points) for traditional open discectomy patients and 7-19 points (average 12.7 points) for microscopy surgery patients. Results Cauda equina injury was occurred and repaired in 2 cases in traditional surgery group. The follow-up period was 10-34 months (average 18 months) for all patients. No complications such as wrong orientation, nerve root injury, and infection occurred. The JOA score 10 months after operation was (24.0 ± 2.6) for traditional surgery patients with 87.5% success rate and (24.2 ± 2.8) for microscopy surgery patients with 90% success rate. Conclusion Two methods have similar clinical outcomes, but microscopy assistant fenestration for LDH has advantages of minimal invasion, shorter operative time, shorter length of hospital stay and less intraoperative blood loss. It is one of ideal minimally invasive operations for single-level lumbar disc protrusion.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of trans-TrkC gene neural stem cells (NSCs)on the recovery of neural function after spinal cord injury.Methods Sixty SD rats were ran- domly divided into six groups:normal control group(A),hemisection group(B),NSCs transplantation grnup(C),NSCs transplantation with the regional application of NT-3 group(D),trans-TrkC gene NSCs transplantation group(E)and trans-TrkC genc NSCs transplantation with the regional application of NT- 3 group(F),10 rats in each group.Nine days after the set up of animal models,cell transplantation into the injured spinal cord was performed.The BBB locomotor score was calculated,and MEP(motor evoked potential)and SEP(somatesensory evoked potential)were pedormed two months after cell transplanta- tion.Results Two months after cell transplantation,the BBB locomotor score was partly recovered, and the MEP and SEP(somatosensory evoked potential)results were also markedly improved in Group F, which indicated the restoration of the upward and downward nerve conduction function of the injured spinal cord.But it seemed that the restoration of the downward nerve conduction was better than that of the up- want,and the extent of the improvement of MEP and SEP results was larger than that of motion function recovery.The onset latency,peak to peak amplitude of MEP and SEP,and the BBB score of Group F re- stored the best compared with the other groups,and the differences were statistically significant(P

Monascus spp.,a kind of filamentous fungi,produce abundant of important metabolites which were widely used in the fields of food and medicine.Until now,there are few reports on the important functional genes of the Monascus spp.due to little genetic information.In this paper,the feasibility of gene deletion mediated via Agrobacterium tumefaciens on the basis of homologous recombination was analyzed by studying on the deletion of the RGS domain of putative G-protein signaling regulator gene mrfA in Monascus ruber.The length of homologous arms of deletion vector pC805S were 958 bp and 824 bp,respectively.There were 26 transformants in which homologous recombination occurred in 138 transformants and the recombination rate was 18.8%.The result showed it was feasible to identify the function of unknown gene in M.ruber with the targeted-deletion technology mediated via A.tumefaciens.

Objective To evaluate the characteristics and efficacy of microscope-assisted bilateral decompression via unilateral approach for the treatment of lumbar stenosis. Methods From June 2007 to June 2010, Sixty case lumbar stenosis with bilateral decompression were treated via unilateral approach under microscopy. Patients were followed up from 6 to 24 months, average (12 ± 4.7) months. Results The pain level of each patient was assessed both before and after the opeartion, using a visual analogue scale (VAS). Intermittent claudication was completely relieved in 57 out of 60 cases, moderately relieved in 3 cases. VAS score decreased from pre-operational 9.08 ± 0.76 to post-operational 2.33 ± 1.43, and there was significantly difference between them. There was no recurrent case during the whole follow-up. Conclusion Bilateral decompression via unilateral approach under microscope is proved to be an effective and safe procedure for the treatment of lumbar stenosis, and have the advantages of minimal invasion, less pain, quick recovery, better effect, little influence on the spinal stability.

0.05).Conclusions These results suggest that the polymorphisms of triplet repeat GGC or combination of CAG and GGC of the androgen receptor is signifi- cantly associated with Han men with androgenetic alopecia in the Eastern China. However, genetic polymor- phism of 5?-reductase may not directly associated with androgenetic alopecia in our study population.
