Cerebral microdialysis is a new sampling method that collects the perfusates from the specific brain region continuously. Disorders of extracellular excitatorary amino acids, monoamines and acetylcholine transmitters release cause brain injury during the cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. Microdialysis has been used to study the dynamic change of neurotransmitters during the acute cerebral ischemia and reperfusion lately, and the real change of neurotransmitters has been monitored in animals brain. The present paper reviews the progress on the microdialysis and its application in the study of neurotransmitters in cerebral ischemia animals in the world.

Searched the articles between 2000 and 2010, found out and summarized the articles with the topic on the experiment and new techniques of traditional Chinese medicine treating to osteoporosis. The preventive and therapeutic effect to osteoporosis by traditional Chinese medicine had been developed in the past 10 years. The study on standardization of experimental drugs, and the mechanism study with modern cell culture techniques should be enhanced.

Traumatic rib fractures are the most common injury in thoracic trauma. Previously，the patients with traumatic rib fractures were mostly treated non-surgically，of which 50%，especially those combined with flail chest presented chronic pain or chest wall deformities and over 30% had long-term disabilities，being unable to retain a full-time job. In the past two decades，thanks to the development of internal fixation material technology，the surgical treatment of rib fractures has achieved good outcomes. However，there are still some problems in clinical treatment，including inconsistency in surgical treatment and quality control in medical services. The current consensuses on the management of regional traumatic rib fractures published at home and abroad mainly focus on the guidance of the overall treatment decisions and plans，and relevant clinical guidelines abroad lacks progress in surgical treatment of rib fractures in recent years. Therefore，the Chinese Society of Traumatology affiliated to Chinese Medical Association and Chinese College of Trauma Surgeons affiliated to Chinese Medical Doctor Association，in conjunction with national multidisciplinary experts，formulate the Chinese Consensus for Surgical Treatment of Traumatic Rib Fractures（2021）following the principle of evidence-based medicine，scientific nature and practicality. This expert consensus puts forward some clear，applicable，and graded recommendations from aspects of preoperative imaging evaluation，surgical indications，timing of surgery，surgical methods，rib fracture sites for surgical fixation，internal fixation methods and material selections，treatment of combined injuries in rib fractures，in order to provide references for surgical treatment of traumatic rib fractures.
