1.Free transfer of abductor hallucis combined with anastomosis of blood vessels and nerves for established facial paralysis:assessment of long term effectiveness
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2000;0(08):-
Objective:To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of free transfer of Abductor hallucis muscle plus anastomosis of blood vessels and nerves for dynamic reanimation of the established facial paralysis.Methods: Twenty-eight patients who received the above-mentioned treatment during March 1999 to November 2006 were followed up.The follow-up period was 1 to 16 years,with a median period of 4 years.The facial pictures of frontal view were analyzed before and after operation.T-FGS and facial nerve function index(FNFI) were used to evaluate the facial nerve function before and after operation.Meanwhile,the survival of the graft,the width of the face,the scar,and the function of the foot were analyzed and compared.Results: All patients obtained satisfactory symmetric faces in static state and voluntary contraction of the transferred muscles.Twenty-two patients obtained ideal smiling faces.The T-FGS score increased by(27?7.2) points and the score of FNFI increased by(57?10.7)% after transplantation(P
2.Clinical study on the treatment of knee osteoarthritis combined with synovitis with Gubiqing
International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2010;32(1):56-57
Objective To observe the effects of treating knee osteoarthritis(KOA)combined with synovitis with Gubiqing,and discuss its mechanism.Methods A total of 60 cases with KOA were randomly recruited into a control group and a treatment group,30 cases in each.TCM symptoms,signs and health assessment questionnaire(HAQ)were observed before and after the treatment.Results The tohal therapeutic effect was 90%and 70%in the treatment group and the control group respectively.There was significant difference between the two group(χ~2=48,P=0.003).Body signs and HAQ were also greatly improved in the treatment group(t=0.004、P=0.008).Conclusion Gubiqing can not only restrain chondrocyte apoptosis in knee osteoarthritis combined with synovitis,but also relive the damage of articular cartilage.

Lung cancer is one of the commonest of malignant tumor in the world.It is a major threat to human health in China with highest morbidity and mortality.Steady increase in incidence rates have been observed worldwide in the last few decades in young patients,but previous studies have provided conflicting data about the clinical characteristics and prognoses of young patients with lung cancer.Consequently,we have difficulty in comparing their results with each other,as the cutoff ages defining"young"were different in each study.Therefore,this article focuses on the clinical characteristics and the different results of researches for the young patients with primary lung cancer.

AIM To investigate if glutamate has direct effects on both resting [Ca 2+ ] i and Ca 2+ influx induced by ATP in cultured calf middle artery cerebral smooth muscle cells. METHODS The effect of glutamate on [Ca 2+ ] i was determined with Fura2 fluorescence technique. RESULTS Glutamate(10~200 ?mol?L -1 )didnot elevate the resting [Ca 2+ ] i level and in the concentrations of 10~400 ?mol?L -1 failed to affect increase and decrese the Ca 2+ influx induced by ATP. CONCLUSION Glutamate hasn't directly effects on both resting [Ca 2+ ] i; and Ca 2+ influx in middle cerebral artery smooth muscle cells. Glutamate is unlikely to participate in regulation of cerebrovascular tention as a direct effector.
