OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the content determination of muscone in Aiweixin oral liquid. METHODS:After extracting sample by butanol,GC-MS was performed on the column of BD-17 MS with the volume temperature of 270 ℃;the carrier gas was helium with the sample size of 1 μl at the flow rate of 10 ml/min;the split ratio was 20∶1. EI was ion source with the electron energy of 70 eV,ion source temperature of 230 ℃ and quadrupole temperature of 150 ℃;the tuning mode was automatic tuning by quality full scanning with the threshold value of 30 in the range of 30-600 aum. RESULTS:The linear range of muscone was 12.216-61.08 ng(r=0.999 6);RSD of precision test was lower than 2% and the RSDs of reproducibility and stability tests were lower than 3%;the average recovery was 100.24%(RSD=1.58%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is sensitive, rapid and simple,and can be used for the content determination of muscone in Aiweixin oral lipid.

Objective an experimental animal model of acute myoc ardial infarction (ANI) was established by opening chest and ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery． Methods a total of 20 rabbits were opened chest and ligated LAD under sterilization． Electrocardiogram (ECG) and myocardial-enzymes in blood serum were investigated． Results ECG of all rabbi t s showed normal before operation． Irmediately after and 1/2 hour after ligation , ST-segment elevated and ECG showed ambulatory changes for 7 and 9 rabbits respectively． Two hours after LAD ligation, the change of ECG for 2 rabbits wa s not typical and 2 of them died during experiment． Four weeks after operation, E CG of 18 rabbits showed the chest leads had pathologic Q waves． Twenty-four ho urs after LAD ligation, AST, LDH, LDH-1, CK and CK-MB in blood serum were significantly increased． There was significant difference compared with before operation (except LDH) (P<0. 0l)． Conclusions:The method was sim ple and well repeated． The formation of myocardial infarction was reliable and rabbits were maintained for a long time after operation． It provides a valuable animal mode l for the experiment study of coronary heart disease．

Objective To discuss the diagnosis and surgical treatment of multiple endocrine neoplasia 1 (MEN1). Methods The clinical data of MEN1 from 1974 to 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Results There were 17 cases of MEN1 in our group. Among them, 11 cases were from 4 families. MEN1 gene mutation was detected in 14 cases admitted after 1997. There were 11 cases of pHPT, 6 cases of insulinoma, 8 cases of pituitary adenoma, 6 cases of adrenal adenoma, 2 cases of thymic carcinoid and 2 cases of collagenoma. Two patients had respectively 4 glands involved, 3 patients had 3, 7 patients had 2 kinds of gland involved respectively. Four patients had only one kind of gland involved. A 12 year old girl had no clinical symptom and biochemical change. Six patients presented with nephrolithasis, 6 patients had impaired pancreatic endocrine function. Subtotal parathyroidectomy was performed in 4 patients of pHPT, and one patient received parathyroid adenoma enucleation. Insulinomas were enucleated in 4 patients. Two patients underwent thymus tumor extirpation. Conclusions MEN1 varies in symptoms, even those from the same family. Cermline mutation test helps establish diagnosis. Operations should be aiming at tumor resection as well as the improvement of life quality.

Objective To discuss the diagnosis and surgical treatment of multiple endocrine neoplasia 2 (MEN2). Methods The clinical data of 28 MEN2 cases from Jun 1997 to Jun 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. Results There were 25 cases of MEN2a and 3 cases of MEN2b. Among the patients of MEN2a, 23 patients were from 7 families with mutation of codon 634, exon 11 of RET, 3 patients of MEN2b had mutation of codon 918, exon 16 of RET and no family history. Twenty-two cases of MEN2a had thyroid masses with elevated calcitonin level, in which 17 were pathologically diagnosed as medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) ,12 patients had pheochromocytomas. Among them, 5 were of multiple foci and 2 were malignant. Five patients presented hyperparathyroidism and 3 patients were asymptomatic without biochemical alterations. Three MEN2b patients had MTC and mucosal ganglioneuromatosis with Marfanoid, one patient had bilateral pheochromocytoma. Total thyroidectomy with bilateral dissection of regional lymph nodes was performed in 12 patients of MEN2a, and nodule enucleations was done in other 5 patients followed by persistent elevated calcitonin level. Nine MEN2a patients underwent pheochromocytoma enucleation including bilateral adrenal resection in 3 cases. Three MEN2b patients underwent total thyroidectomy with bilateral lymph node dissection. Conclusions MTC is the most often complications of MEN2. Germline mutation test helps to make early diagnosis. Radical total thyroidectomy in young patients may prevent MTC.

Objective To discuss the expression and mutation of β-catenin gene in breast carcinoma.Methods 119 breast carcinomas, 72 adenosis of breast tissues and 40 normal breast tissues were studied.Using immunohistochemistry studies to detect the expressions of β-catenin, then analyzing their relationship with the clinicopathological features of breast carcinomas. Gene mutation of β-catenin (exon 3) in 44 cases of breast carcinoma were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and then by direct sequencing.ResultsIn 40 cases of normal breast tissues, epithelial cells showed equally strong membranous of β-catenin protein at the cell-cell boundaries. The abnormal rate of β-catenin in breast carcinomas (78.15 %) was much higher than that of adenosis of breast tissues (44.44 %), the significant correlation was found (P＜0.01). The abnormal expression of β-catenin was associated with lymph node metastasis (P=0.031). Mutation of β-catenin gene was not detected in 44 cases of breast carcinoma, while the abnormal rate of β-catenin in 44 cases of breast carcinoma was 77.30 %. Conclusionβ-catenin abnormal expression could be considered as an useful marker for determining metastasis and prognosis of human breast carcinoma and for guiding treatment. β-catenin abnormal expression is not caused by β-catenin gene mutation, maybe by other mechanisms. It needs further study.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of earlier rehabilitation on activities of daily living(ADL) of patients with spinal cord injury(SCI).Methods50 SCI patients received earlier rehabilitation and improvement of ADL of patients was evaluated.ResultsAfter two months treatment,the scores of Barthel index,functional independence measure(FIM) grade of patients increased significantly compared with that of before treatment(P<0.05) and ADL improved.ConclusionEarlier rehabilitation can improve ADL of SCI patients.

Abstract?AlM:To evaluate the accuracy and practicability of three - dimensionally preformed Arbeitsgemeinschaft Osteosynthese AO titanium mesh plates for orbital fractures.?METHODS:Forty-seven patients with isolated blow-out orbital fractures were included in this study. Fracture locations were as follows: floor/medial wall ( n = 26, 55%), medial wall ( n = 12, 26%), and floor ( n = 9, 19%) . The floor fractures were exposed by a standard transconjunctival approach, whereas a combined transcaruncular transconjunctival approach was used in patients with medial wall fractures with temporary dissection of inferior oblique muscle. A three -dimensionally preformed AO titanium mesh plate was selected according to the size of the defect previously measured on the preoperative computed tomographic scan examination and fixed at the inferior orbital rim with 2 screws. The accuracy of plate positioning of the reconstructed orbit was assessed on the postoperative computed tomography ( CT) scan. The practicability of clinical use of AO three - dimensionally preformed titanium mesh plates was assessed on the preoperative and postoperative clinical data.?RESULTS: Postoperative orbital CT scan showed an anatomic three- dimensional placement of the orbital mesh plates in all of the patients. All patients had a successful treatment outcome without clinical complications. 40 patients ( 87%) had a successful enophthalmos correction. 25 patients ( 86%) had a successful recovery from diplopia.?CONCLUSlON: Three- dimensionally preformed AO titanium mesh plates for orbital fracture reconstruction results in an accurate anatomic restoration of the bony orbital contour with a high rate of success to correctenophthalmos and diplopia.
