Objective To observe the effectiveness of high-intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU)in the treatment of lichen sclerosus of vulva.Methods 63 patients with lichen sclerosus of vulva between July 2005 to December 2005 were divided into two groups at random,ultrasound group and control group.Patients in ultrasound group were treated with HIFU.Those in control group were treated with hormone.Results The scores of itch had difference after treatment in both group(P

BACKGROUND: Rat model of orthotopic liver transplantation is a very valuable model for experimental study in liver transplantation including organ preservation, tissue ischemia-reperfusion injury, allograft rejection and immune tolerance mechanism. Stable liver transplantation animal model is the basis of the related experimental studies. However, its experimental operation is long and boring, especially performed by a single operator under direct vision. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the operation techniques to establish a stable rat model of orthotopic liver transplantation by a single operator under direct vision. METHODS: The orthotopic liver transplantation was performed using two-cuff method in 50 pairs of rats. We exposed the abdominal cavity fully, perfused the donor liver through abdominal aorta without flipping donor liver; suprahepatic inferior vena cava was in vivo cut down using one-step method, without diaphragm ring; the suprahepatic inferior vena cava was anastomosed with single-row suture, and the cuff of portal vein was installed by fixing the blood vessel forceps on rubber. Hepatic artery was not reconstructed. Fluid replacement was administered to maintain hemodynamic stability in rats after operation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The donor operative time was (36.2± 2.5) minutes, donor liver trimming time was (12.2± 1.5) minutes, receptor operative time was (45.6 ± 3.5) minutes, suprahepatic inferior vena cava anastomosis time was (10.1 ± 2.1) minutes, portal vein cuff time was (1.5 ±0.9) minutes, infrahepatic inferior vena cave cuff time was (1.1 ± 0.6) minutes, anhepatic phase was (15.1 ± 2.2) minutes. The success ratio of the operation was 100% and the survival rates within 1 week and 1 month were all 100%. It is indicated that the key factors of a successful model were stable anesthesia, good donor liver perfusion, adequate exposure, skilled microsurgical technology and vascular anastomosis technique.

Objective To evaluate the effects of glutamine on immune function in elderly patients with malnutrition.Methods Twenty-four elderly patients with malnutrition were equally randomized divided into glutamine group and control group.Patients in both two groups were administered with enteral nutrition containing equal nitrogen and calorics for consecutively 7 days.In the glutamine group,patients were also supplied with oral glutamine (7.5g tid).Changes of plasma IgG,IgA,and IgM levels,percentages of T-lymphocyte subsets (CD3,CD4,CD8),and CD4/CD8 ratio were determined before and after treatment.Results Plasma IgG and IgA lev-els,percentages of CD3 and CD4,and CD4/CD8 ratio were significantly higher in glutamine group than in control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Glutamine can improve the immune function in elderly patients with malnutritiop and promote their recovery.

Objective To study the mechanism of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and discuss its clinical significance in the treatment of mid-late stage liver cancer. Methods The patients with mid-late stage liver cancer were treated with HIFU. The changes of photography, pathology and immunology after operation were evaluated. Results It was shown that the results of the photographic, pathologic and immunologic examinations changed during the treatment of the patients with HIFU. Conclusion HIFU is effective and safe for the treatment of mid-late stage liver cancer.

This study reviews the researches on self-handicapping in about more than 20 years. It summarizes the practical researches of self-handicapping from 7 aspects: (1)manifestations and types of self-handicapping behaviors;(2)evaluative conditions that typically elicit self-handicapping;(3)motives underlying self-handicapping; (4)factors influencing on self-handicapping; (5)consequences of self-handicapping; (6) measurements of self-handicapping. On this basis, it raises some questions in self-handicappping researches and points out the future direction.

Multidrug resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs is an important reason for clinical chemotherapy failure. The mechanisms of the classical drug resistance such as P-gp, MRP have been clarified. Hence, it is very important to further study the non-classical mechanism of multidrug resistance. We introduced the effects on MDR, the possible mechanisms of glutathione and related enzymes, as well as the relationship between structure of GSH analogues and the transport activity in this paper.

Objective:To discuss how to link the “No. 1 Military Medical Project”hospital network system with the local health insurance system.Methods: To analysis the interface demands of the social health insurance system and the rural cooperative health insurance system. Results: To solve the problem by modify the medical insurance interface program of the out-patient registration and charge, the in-patient registration and charge.Conclusion: the function and requirement has been realized by linking.

The widespread use of antibiotics has been effectively controlled serious life-threatening infections.The trituration,exploitation and use of antibiotics has been rapidly developed and applied to many fields.Due to the extensive use of various antibiotics,the emergences of drug-resistant bacteria and the rates of bacterial resistance have increased unceasingly which has been a common focus in the world.Resistant pathogen can reduce the effectiveness of antibiotics,and which is a serious threat to human health.De-escalation therapy of antibiotics can quickly and effectively control serious infections,and avoid bacterial resistance,and induce fungal infections.The rational use of antibiotics in pediatrics is very imperative,which includes strengthening management of antibiotics,and improving awareness and vigilance of the adverse reactions of antibiotics,and consummating specification of medication.Then,realize the correct,safe,rational medication of antibiotics.

Bronchiolitis obliterans(BO) is chronic airflow obstruction syndrome characterized by small airway obstruction and airflow limitation.In children, BO is secondary to severe infection of respiratory tract, and its development is related with inflammation and immune response.At present, the diagnosis of BO mainly is depended on the clinical manifestation, lung function and examination results of high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) because of difficulty of lung biopsy.Pulmonary HRCT is a non-invasive examination, and worthy of generalization.Currently, BO has no accepted effective treatment,early diagnosis and treatment can block the progression of BO.Due to lack of realization of BO, doctors and parents fail to give enough attention, BO has a prolonged course and very poor prognosis.
