Skillful in the treatment of gouty arthritis (GA) by integrated therapies of Chinese and Western medicine,chief physician Zhang Tang-fa proposes to ‘deal with the exterior with the needles,and attack the interior with the drugs,by integrated application of acupuncture and herbal medicine',in combination with comprehensive intervention of dietetic therapy and health education.In the treatment of GA,he adopts the syndrome differentiation based upon the pathogenic factors,in combination of syndrome differentiation based upon the six meridians,to reinforce and benefit the spleen and kidney,clear away heat and remove dampness as the therapeutic principle.By acupuncture mainly at the acupoints of the Spleen and Liver Meridians,he also proposes to select the acupoints by the theory of Na Zi Fa (earthly branch method) of Zi Wu Liu Zhu (midnight-noon ebb-flow),and to puncture the surrounding area of the involved joints shallowly by multiple needles as the major needling method,simultaneously with the reinforcing and reducing manipulations based upon the respiration.In the treatment,acupuncture and acupoint-injection are often used.In diet,low purine diet is often suggested.In health education,the patients are often instructed to understand the disease correctly,eliminate fears and cooperate with doctor's treatment positively.

Objective To evaluate the effect of convalescent training on patients after special prosthesis replacement in treatment of giant cell tumors. Methods 20 patients with giant cell tumors were treated with convalescent trainings postoperatively,including trainings of muscle strength,joint movement, balance, noumenal sense and gait and were emphasized for earlier training of active muscle contraction. Results According to Enneking score system of bone and muscle postoperation, the lowest for extremitas superior postoperation score of 5 patiens was 20,the highest was 28, the average was 26.6. 4 patiens score was higher than 24, the good rate was 80.0 %.15 patiens extremitas inferior score was from 14 to 27, the average was 21.5, the good rate was 86.7 %. Conclusion Earlier staged joint functional rehabilitation exercise after special prosthesis replacement in treatment of giant cell tumors could prevent ankylosis,improve adhering of capsule,ligament and other soft tissue,and recover the joint function to maximum.

A high Streptolydigin-producing strain Streptomyces lydicus AS 4.2501-L8 with genetic stability was obtained from the original strain S. lydicus AS 4.2501-P28 by mutagenesis with UV and acridine orange, followed by resistance selection. Its yield of Streptolydigin was 177.0 ?g/mL, 96.2% higher than the original strain.

Background Treatment of corneal ulceration by transplanting drug-loaded amniotic membrane has been used widespreadly abroad,however,seldom study is found in China up to now.Objective This study was to explore the sustained release property and the efficacy of the drug-loaded amniotic membrane.Methods The bacteriostatic area of amniotic membrane fragments immersed with different concentrations (5,20,30 g/L) of levofloxacin for different time points (5,15,30,60 minutes) was evaluated by in vitro test.Bacterial corneal ulceration models were established in 20 rabbits by injected 0.7 MCF staphylococcus aureus suspension (0.1 ml) into the central corneal stroma to form the cloudy area of 4.0-6.0 mm.Then the rabbits were randomized into two groups.Regular amniotic membrane transplantation was performed laterally and 0.5％ levofloxacin drops was topically administered after operation in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group,and drug-loading amnion transplantation was used in the drug-loading amnion group.Aqueous humor of 0.1 ml was collected in 30 minutes,1 hour,2,3.5,5.5 hours after levofloxacin was administered and 1 day,3,7,10,14,21 days after operation for the detect of levofloxacin level with high-performance liquid chromatography.The corneal symptom was scored based on McNeill's criteria in 1 week,2 weeks and 4 weeks and the ulceration area was assessed under the slit lamp in the first week.The pathological examination was carried out in the fourth week after surgery.Results The mean bacteriostatic area was bigger with the increase of levofloxacin concentration,and bacteriostatic area in amnion immersed for 15 minutes was bigger than that of 5 minutes (P＜0.01).The levofloxacin concentration of aqueous humor after transplantation was decreased by extending the time,and that in 30 minutes and 5.5 hours after operation was (0.873±0.264) mg/L and (0.106±0.027) mg/L,respectively,in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group,and that in day 1,3,7 after surgery in the drug-loading amnion group was higher than at 30 minutes in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group,showing all significant differences (all P =0.00).In the first,second and fourth week after operation,the corneal symptom score was 1.7±0.6,1.3±0.5,0.2±0.4 in the drug-loading amnion group and 2.2±0.8,2.0±0.6,1.5±0.8 in the amnion+ levofloxacin drops group,with the significant differences among the different groups and time points (Fgroup =9.49,P =0.01 ;Ftime =22.96,P=0.01).The corneal ulceration area was (1.6±0.6) mm2 in the drug-loading amnion group and (3.2±0.8) mm2 in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group 1 week after operation,showing a significant difference between them (t =3.98,P =0.00).Histopathological revealed that the various layers of cornea tissue appeared irregular arrangement in the amnion + levofloxacin drops group 4 weeks after operation with 1-2 layers of new squamous epithelium.Disorder hypothallus structure,more inflammatory cells and residual vascular cavity were visible.However,new squamous epithelium of 4-5 layers was seen in the drug-loading amnion group,and inflammatory cells and residual vascular cavity were less than the amnion+levofloxacin drops group 4 weeks after operation.Conclusions Levofloxacin-loaded amniotic membrane can sustained release levofloxacin and maintain an effective drug concentration in aqueous humor,which improves the treating efficacy for staphylococcus aureus corneal ulceration.

AIM To evaluate the anti-angiogenesis action of Bevacizumab on corneal neovascularization(CNV) in rats induced by alkali burns.·METHODS: 20 Health Wistar rats, aging from 6 to 8 weeks and weighting from 170g to 190g from 170g to 190g were prepared for CNV animal models. Both corneas of each animal in experimental were cauterized with alkali, then all rats were randomly divided into four groups (each group have 5 rats and 10 corneas), the both corneas of each rats were received subconjunctival Bevacizumab in different dosage (group 2, 0.5rag; group 3, 1.0mg; group 4, 2.0mg)and the group 1 received carrier solution. The occurrence and development ofCNVwereobservedbyslit-lamp microscope, and length and area of CNV were calculated. All rats were followeded up 16 days after alkali burns. The 40 corneas were taken for histopathological examination. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected in all rat corneas by immunohistochemistry method. ·RESULTS: In the bevacizumabotreated eyes, the vascular area was lower than in the control eyes. The treated group was statistical differences compared with the control group; when vascular area were compared between the treated groups, no statistical differences were observed. The histopathological findings showed that the inflammation cells and the neovascularity in each treated group were significantly fewer than that in the control group. The expression of VEGF markedly increased in CNV control group compared with bevacizumab-injected group. ·CONCLUSION: Subconjunctival application of a certain concentrations Bevacizumab could inhibit angiogenesis in rats corneas induced by alkali burns.
