0.05). ② The Fo in groups 2 and 3 were (5.0?1.5) and (5.2?1.5) respectively, which were significantly lower than that in group 1 (6.1?1.2)(q=4.690, 3.383, P

Luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome (LUFS), a specific type of ovulation disorder, is for a cause of female infertility. Acupuncture therapy has a good effect for LUFS. In order to understand the clinical effects and research situation of acupuncture therapy for LUFS, the author analyzed and reviewed the relevant literature. It was indicated by the findings that acupuncture therapy and integrative therapy of acupuncture and Chinese herbs have good therapeutic effect for this disease. Acupuncture therapy has the effect to promote ovulation. By the therapeutic principle to tonify the kidney and circulate blood, acupuncture therapy mostly was adopted in the period of ovulation. The acupoints are mostly selected from the lower abdomen and lower limbs, possibly based upon syndrome differentiation at the same time. The needling techniques are of certain characteristics. But, the issues of low quality, un-standardized inclusive, exclusive criteria and effective criteria still exist in the current clinical study.

Objective To observe the changes and relationships of glucose (Glu),insulin(Ins) ,insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in newborn infant with hypixic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) and the protective role which Ins,IGF-1 worked on neuron.Methods HIE 50 cases,the quantity of IGF-1 in serum was detected by radioimmunoassay,the quantity of Ins in serum was detected by chemiluminescent immunoassay,the quantity of glucose in serum was detected by the instrument with type of Rokangquan TM accutive.The umbilical vein blood 2 mL were drawn from 20 cases of controls after birth.The indexes were detected by the same methods.Results 1.In acute period,the level of serum IGF-1 reduced obviously in newborn infants with HIE,and Glu increased obviously.There was a negative correlation between IGF-1 and Glu.The changes related with neonate complications.In rehabilited pe riod,the Glu get to normal,the IGF-1 was a little higher than that in acute period.but it still was lower than that of control group.There was negative correlation between IGF-1 and Glu.2.The level of Ins in serum of newborn infants with HIE had no obvious changes compairing with control group in acute period and rehabilited period.It had no relations with Glu,Ins.Conclusions It approves that IGF-1 and Glu in serum of newborn infants with HIE have obviously changed.This result will provide an academic base on treatment of HIE.

A 74-year-old man presented with recurrent vomiting and aspiration pneumonia in the left lower lobe. He entered the intensive care unit to manage the pneumonia and septic shock. Although a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube was implanted for recurrent vomiting, vomiting and aspiration recurred frequently during admission. Subsequently, he complained of neck pain when in an upright position. A videofluoroscopic swallowing study showed compression of the esophagus by cervical osteophytes and tracheal aspiration caused by an abnormality at the laryngeal inlet. Cervical spine X-rays and computed tomography showed anterior cervical osteophytes at the C3-6 levels. Surgical decompression was scheduled, but was cancelled due to his frailty. Unfortunately, further recurrent vomiting and aspiration resulted in respiratory arrest leading to hypoxic brain damage and death. Physicians should consider cervical spine disease, such as diffuse skeletal hyperostosis as an uncommon cause of recurrent aspiration pneumonia.

Objective To investigate effect of dexmedetomidine on postoperative analgesia pump dose and effect.Methods 50 cases of patients with abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were selected.According to the postoperative analgesic drugs were divided into control group and experimental group, 25 cases in each group were given corresponding drug treatment.After treatment, the visual analogue scale, comfort score, adverse reaction rate and dosage of analgesic drugs were detected and compared.Results Compared with the control group,the VAS score were lower(P <0.05),the BCS score were higher(P<0.05),the adverse reaction rate were lower(P<0.05),the dosage of analgesic pump were lower(P<0.05). Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can significantly reduce postoperative pain degree of patients, reduce the incidence of adverse reaction, reduce analgesic dosage of the drug pump.

Objective To develop a set of high-frequency ultrasound grayscale blood flow imaging system based on field programmable gate array (FPGA) to execute simultaneous imaging of superficial blood flow and tissues.Methods This system was mainly composed of an ultrasonic transducer,an ultrasonic transmission and receiving modules,imaging software in host computer and peripheral equipment.A PVDF transducer with the frequency between 20 and 50 MHz was used for the ultrasonic transducer.In transmission and receiving modules,the radio frequency echo signals were digitized by high-speed A/D.Then the digital signals were transmitted,added,filtered,demodulated,log amplified,double sampled,and lastly transferred to the host computer by USB interface for real-time display.Results A vascular 1 mm far form the surface of the hand skin was examined by this system.Four blood flow images were obtained in corresponding with four transmission frequencies.Conclusion Real-time superficial organ blood flow imaging is realized by this system.The solution has the architecture concise and clear,and lays an experimental foundationfor high-frequency ultrasound gray-scale blood flow imaging.

Objective:To label monoclonal anti-GPⅢa antibody (SZ21) with 99 Tcm and evaluate the value of 99 Tcm-SZ-21 for detecting thrombi in vivo.Methods:SZ-21 was modified with 2-iminotholane and labeled with 99 Tcm-GH and radiochemical purity was determined by ITLC-SG.99Tcm-SZ-21 was injected via ear edge vein in 5 rabbits in which thrombi were induced in the right femoral arteries.As control,99 Tcm-GH was administered in 1 rabbit.Static images were acquired and irregularly shaped ROIs were drawn on the images to calculate the ratios of T/M and T/B.Vein blood was drawn at 2 min,5 min,10 min,30 min and 1 h-3 h after injection in 2 rabbits so as to observe the blood clearance of 99 Tcm-SZ-21.Rabbits were sacrificed after 3 h of imaging.The vessels including clots were harvested and imaged.Cardiac muscle,liver,spleen,lung,kidney,etc.were excised and weighed.Radioactivity counts were measured to calculate % ID/g.Results:The radiochemical purity of 99 Tcm-SZ21 was beyond 90% and stable in vitro.Thrombi could be visualized at 30 min after injection,and at 2 h image of thrombi was clearly visualized,T/M (2.55?0.72) and T/B (1.94?0.51) ratios were high.In vitro imaging showed that T/B was 4.43?1.5.Conclusion:99Tcm-SZ-21 could be a potential agent for imaging diagnosis of thrombotic disease.
