Plant growth retardant as one of plant growth regulator can inhibit the cell division, elongation and growth rate in shoot apical meristem (SAM), which can be reversed by gibberellin regulate the product of photosynthesis transfer to the root and rhizome part. As commonly used plant growth retardant, paclobutrazol, uniconazole, chlorocholine chloride, mepiquat chloride, choline chloride and daminozide are used to promote the growth of root and rhizome, call as "zhuanggenling", "pengdasu", "pengdaji" etc. Single or recombination of plant growth regulator is registered as pesticide, and called as pesticide "zhuanggenling" in this paper. Growth regulator which registered as a foliar fertilizer or fertilization was called agricultural fertilizer "zhuanggenling" in this paper. The author investigate the usage of "zhuanggenling" in the root and rhizome of medicinal plants cultivation from 2012 to 2014 in Sichuan province, Huangyuan town, Mianyang (Ophiopogonis Radix); Pengzhou Aoping town (Chuanxiong Rhizoma); Pengshan Xiejia town (Alismatis Rhizoma); Jiangyou Taiping town and Zhangming town (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata); Yunnan Wenshan (Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma); Henan province, Wuzhidafeng Town (Rehmanniae Radix, Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix, Dioscoreae Rhizoma); Gansu Min county (Codonopsis Radix, Angelicae Sinensis Radix); Gansu Li county (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma). The result showed that "zhuanggenling" were applied in the most medicinal plant cultivation except Rhei Radix et Rhizoma. It has been applied widespreadly in Ophiopogonis Radix, Alismatis Rhizoma, Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix, Codonopsis Radix; Rehmanniae Radix, commonly in Angelicae Sinensis Radix application, and occasionally in Chuanxiong Rhizoma, Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Dioscoreae Rhizoma. In 53 collected sample from plantation areas, fifteen (28%) were pesticide "zhuanggenling", thirty-eight (72%) were pesticide "zhuanggenling". UPLC analysis results showed that 38 farmers fertilizer "zhuanggenling" content of 6 kinds of plant growth retardant. It is regarded that fertilizer "zhuanggenling" was dominant in medicinal plant cultivation, and that the plant growth retardant is added widespreadly in farm fertilizer "zhuanggenling". All evidence proves conclusively that "zhuanggenling" have been used in the proper way, whereas some others have been misused or even abused in the use regarding to type, number, use frequency. The root or rhizoma are increased to 20%-200%. But there is lack of evaluation to appraise the quality of medicinal materials from the aspects of research or industry. "zhuanggenling" has become a important Chemical control material besides fertilizer, insecticidal sterilization of pesticide

ObjectiveTo study the mechanisms and related factors and preventive managements of the stress ulcer complicating with acute cervical spinal cord injury. MethodsThe clinical findings of eight cases of the acute cervical spinal cord injury with stress ulcer were reviewed retrospectively.ResultsFive cases were cured by conservative treatment, one case was cured after operations, two cases died of breath and circulation failure.ConclusionStress ulcer is a critical complication of acute cervical spinal cord injury. It should be prevented actively.

The PET tracer 5-([11C]methyloxy)-L-tryptophan (5-(11)CMTP) was prepared by nucleophilic fluorination and alkylation reaction via a two-step procedure in order to develop specific tumor probe. The biodistribution and microPET imaging of 5-(11)CMTP were executed. The results unveiled that the overall radiochemical yield with no decay correction was (14.6 ±7.2) %, the radiochemical purity was more than 95% and high uptake and long retention time of 5-(11)CMTP in liver, kidney and blood were observed but low uptake in brain and muscle were found, furthermore, high uptake of 5-(11)CMTP in tumor tissue was observed. It seems that 5-(11)CMTP will be a potential amino acid tracer for tumors imaging with PET.

Objective To investigate the effect of bibliotherapy in soothing the postoperative pain in children and relieving the perioperative anxiety of children and their care givers. Methods Hospitalized children and their care givers from August 2007 to March 2009 were studied. 153 cases from August 2007 to May 2008 were assigned to the control group and the other 153 cases to the intervention group. Routine surgical nursing were applicated in the control group by introduction of perioperative nursing procedures.Bibliotherapy were applicated in the intervention group on the basis of the control group-using "bibliotherapy materials for hospitalized children" which was designed by ourselves and correspond with the theory of bibliotherapy to interfere in the 153 cases in the intervention group. The variance of preoperative anxiety of care givers and perceptions of postoperative pain of children between the two groups were compared with scales of mYPAS, STAI and FLACC and Wong- Baker Facial Scale. Results The scores of mYPAS in children of the intervention group and the control group was (35.875+4.441)and(46.796+8.606 )respectively and the variance was significant. The scores of STAI in care givers of the two groups was(38.125+4.371 )and (49.901 +7.420) respectively and revealed significant variance. The scores of Wong-Baker and FLACC in children of both groups 1 hour after operation were compared and revealed no statistical significance. The scores of Wong-Baker and FLACC in children at 6 hours and 24 hours postoperative were compared subjectively and objectively and revealed statistic significance. Conclusions Bibliotherapy can ameliorate the anxiety level of both children and their care givers, relieve the perception of postoperative pain in children and improve their comforts. Bibliotherapy thus conduces to the recovery of postoperative children.

AIM: To investigate serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) level in patients with bladder transitional cell carcinoma(BTCC) and its clinical significance. METHODS: ELISA method was used to examine the serum VEGF level in 42 cases of bladder transitional cell carcinoma and in 10 cases of normal people as control. The change of VEGF in blood of the pre-operation and post-operation patients with BTCC was also compared. RESULTS: The VEGF level in blood of the patients was higher than that of the normal people, in spite of pre-operation, post-chemotherapy, and post-operation, but VEGF level decreased obviously after chemotherapy or operation. In addition, the plasma VEGF level was related to the grade and invasion of tumor. CONCLUSION: Detecting serum VEGF level can help us to assess the change of tumor and therapeutic effect.
