At present,reports at home and abroad suggest a low probability of successful preservation of ovarian endocrine function after ovarian shift radiotherapy.After radiotherapy for cervical carcinoma,the ovarian function is associated with various factors,such as radiotherapy dose and method,patient's age,shift position,and concurrent chemotherapy drugs.Therefore,as for each patient,the dose to the ovarian tissue should be controlled within the individual dose limit to effectively preserve the ovarian function.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical effects of double-plating internal fixation for the treatment of medial tibial plateau fractures with fracture-dislocation type through combined anterior and inverted "L" posteromedial knee approaches.
METHODSFrom February 2010 to September 2013, 17 patients with medial tibial plateau fractures with fracture-dislocation type were treated by double-plating internal fixation at our department. Anterior knee approach was adopted for medial mass reduction and fixation,while the inverted "L" posteromedial approach was used for posteromedial mass. There were 11 males and 6 females, with an average age of 42 years old (ranged, 21 to 65 years old). The efficacy were investigated by comparing pre- and post-operative radiographic data, and by evaluating clinical symptoms using the HSS score system.
RESULTSAll the patients were followed with a mean time of 18 months (ranged, 11 to 25 months). The tibial-plateau varus angle immediately after operation and at the latest follow-up were respectively (87.8 ± 4.2)° and (88.2 ± 4.6)°, and there was no statistical difference (P = 0.458). The posterior slope angle immediately after operation and at the latest follow-up were respectively (10.1 ± 3.7)° and (10.3 ± 4.1)°, and there was no statistical difference (P = 0.512). The knee joint HSS score was 86.7 ± 6.1. No patient had complications such as infection, skin necrosis, internal fixation loosening or loss of fracture reduction.
CONCLUSIONDoubl-plating internal fixation through combined approaches is an ideal operation method for medial tibial plateau fractures with fracture-dislocation type, because it can provide clear surgical field, satisfactory reduction, reliable fixation, and chance for early functional exercise.

Objective To analyze the effect of high quality nursing in gastroscopy examination. Method 1 300 pa﹣tients underwent gastroscopy from March 2014 to June 2014 were randomly divided to control group (n= 650) and intervention group (n= 650). Patients in control group received routine nursing, and patients in intervention group received high quality nursing intervention besides the routine nursing. Patients anxiety level, open state of esophageal meatus, one-time intubation success rate, and time-consumed in gastroscopy of the two groups were compared. Result Anxiety score between the two groups at the time of reservation was not statistically significant (P> 0.05), anxiety scores of the intervention group (31.40 ± 4.20) was lower than that of control group before gas﹣troscopy, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Open rate of esophageal meatus, one-time intuba﹣tion success rate, and time-consumed in gastroscopy of the intervention group (97.1%, 95.1%and 4.52 ± 1.23 min) were significantly better than those of the control group (79.4%, 82.3%and 5.42 ± 1.53 min). Conclusion The high quality nursing in gastroscopy can alleviate the anxiety level of patients, improve the success rate of gastroscopy, re﹣duce the pain of patients, and it is worthy of clinical promoting.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of tuina plus foot bath with Chinese medicine for patients with diabetic foot (DF) in early stage.Methods:A total of 70 patients with early-stage DF were randomly allocated by the random number table into two groups,with 35 cases in each group.Patients in the control group received conventional medication,while patients in the observation group received tuina plus foot bath with Chinese medicine on the basis of conventional medication.The clinical efficacy was compared after 2 courses of treatment.Results:After treatment,intra-group comparisons of ankle-brachial index (ABI) showed statistical significance in both groups (both P<0.05).The curative rate was 83.3% in the observation group,with the total effective rate of 96.7%,versus 29.4% and 76.5% in the control group,respectively,and the between-group comparisons showed statistical significance (both P<0.05),indicating a better effect in the observation group.Conclusion:Tuina plus foot bath with Chinese medicine has a good therapeutic effect for DF patients in early stage.

Lycii Cortex, a popular herb medicine in traditional Chinese medicine, is used to treat different inflammation-related diseases. The aim of our work is to find the key constituents inhibiting NF-kappaB, a key regulator of inflammation. In the investigations of cell-based in vitro assays of extracts, we found that both ethyl acetate extract and methanol extract of Lycii Cortex inhibited the TNF-alpha-induced activation of NF-kappaB. Through bioassay-guided fractionation, we identified 4 phenolic amides including trans-N-(p-coumaroyl) tyramine (1), trans-N-feruloyltyramine (2), trans-N-caffeoyltyramine (3), and dihydro-N-caffeoyltyramine (4). Four phenolic amides showed differently inhibitory activities on TNF-alpha-induced NF-kappaB activation. Trans-N-caffeoyltyramine (3) was identified as the key component with an IC50 of 18.41 micromol x L(-1). It was suggested that the hydroxyl group at C-3 in trans-N-caffeoyltyramine might be a key binding site and its C-7,8-double bond might play an important role on NF-kappaB inhibitory activities as the link of the conjugation of pi electrons leading to a partial planar conformation. It might be inferred that the biological activity of compound 3 is attributed to the structure of Michael reaction acceptor containing alpha, beta-unsaturated ketones and benzene along with hydroxyl group in o-diphenol.

Objective To investigate the effect of electromyographic biofeedback with electric stimulation (Est-EMGBFT) training on dorsiflexion of foot of cerebral palsy children with spastic diplegia type.Methods 66 cerebral palsy children with spastic diplegia type were randomly divided into the treatment group and control group with 33 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated with rehabilitation training plus Est-EMGBFT, while the control group with rehabilitation training only. The manual muscle test (MMT) of tibial muscle and the ankle joint initiative range of motion (I-ROM) were performed before and after 4 courses of treatment, and the treatment group was assessed by electromyographic (EMG) apparatus additionally.Results After treatment, the muscular force of children in the treatment group was higher than those in the control group significantly ( P<0.01) and the level of integrated electromyography (iEMG) and root mean square (RMS) assessed by sEMG increased significantly ( P<0.05), the I-ROM of the treatment group was higher than the control group significantly ( P<0.05).Conclusion Est-EMGBFT training can provide a satisfactory rehabilitation effect for the dorsiflexion of foot of cerebral palsy children with spastic diplegia type.

?AIM: To evaluate the effects on recovering of corneal wound and postoperative discomfort of different methods for primary pterygium.?METHODS: Forty-seven cases ( 60 eyes ) of primary pterygium were excised under microscope with limbal epithelial transplantation, with sharp dissection ( 24 cases, 30 eyes, Group A) and blunt dissection (23 cases, 30 eyes, Group B).All cases were followed up for 1d to 1mo.?RESULTS: The recovering of corneal wound was better in Group B on 1st day and 3rd day after surgery.Pain, photophobia and tears, foreign body sensation were more serious in group A on 1st day after surgery with a statistically significant difference (P=0.005,0.015,0.012). Pain, photophobia and tears, foreign body sensation were more serious in Group A on 3rd day after surgery with a statistically significant difference ( P=0.019,0.018, 0.015).There was no statistically significant difference on 1wk and 1mo after surgery (P>0.05).? CONCLUSION: Compared with sharp dissection, primary pterygium excised with blunt dissection can significantly improve recovering of corneal wound and postoperative discomfort.
