[Method]A group of degenerative scoliosis patients and their symptoms,signs,imaging,treatment,treatment outcome,statistical analysis of clinical complications were analyzed. [Result]Degenerative lumbar vertebral height was lowered by scoliosis,the facet joint X-ray showed high density,joint process,and some patients MRI imaging performance for the lumbar spinal canal stenosis,nerve root compression. [Conclusion]Scoliosis propose severe degenerative lumbar degenerative disease concept : as the result of the lumbar vertebral height lower after the annex being not parallel with the extent of the decrease is the main reason leading to degenerative scoliosis,and the pathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis contrary,health scoliosis cause sudden stress-induced arthritis of the joints is a major reason leading to low back pain.The clinical characteristics of severe back pain and / or nerve root pain or intermittent claudication and clinical classification : degenerative scoliosis patients divided into two main types :(1) in accordance with the breakdown of the causes of scoliosis : ①physiological; ②pathological scoliosis;(2) conducted in accordance with the germs are : ①ankylosis,②non-tonic type(third degree,second degree,first degree);(3)in accordance with lumbar scoliosis :①simple shapes into curved,② lumbar curved(lumbar mainly,affect some thoracic),③combined compensatory thoracic-lumbar bends.Treatment principles :in general,under the circumstances permit for scoliosis surgery,orthopedic principles : lumbar curving not totally stressed.

[Objective]To investigate the diagnosis,surgical procedure and clinical effect for the subdural extramedullary tumor. [Methods]Forty-five patients (28 males and 17 females,age ranged from 24-71 years with an average of 45 years ) were treated with tumour extirpation. MRI showed subdural extramedullary tumor before surgery. The spine was exposed through a standard posterior approach,and the dura matter was opened after lamninectomy. The tumor was separated and removed from the dura matter. Pedicle screw fixation was performed to restore the stability of spine. [Results]The patients were followed up from 6 to 42 months with an average of 26.2 months. The postoperative recovery of neurological function was measured with Otani scores. The clinical result was excellent in 11 patients,good in 18 and fair in 12,resulting in 64.44% of good to excellent rate. The good to excellent rate had an advantage in patients (84.62%) operated on within one month after first visit over that of patients (64.29%) who had a misdiagnosis for 1~6 months and the patients (50.00%) for more than 6 months.[Conclusion]Removal is the method of choice for patients with subdural extramedullary tumor. Early diagnosis and removal are key factors to get a good clinical effect.

Objective:To study intervenient action of Qixue Bingzhi Prescription on the patient of cervical atherosclerosis(AS). Methods:63 cases of cervical AS were randomly divided into a treatment group(n=33) and a control group(n=30), with 25 cases of same age ranges used as healthy group. The control group was treated with basic treatment of western medicine and the treatment group with the basic treatment plus Qixue Bingzhi Prescription for one month. Changes of blood lipid metabolism, interleukin levels, supersensitive C-reactive protein(Hs-CRP) content and the leukocyte adherence expression rate were observed. Results: The total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride(TG), AS index (TC/HDL-C), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and Hs-CRP levels and lymphocytes and the neutrophilic granulocyte adhesion molecule expression rate (ICD11b and zCD11b) decreased significantly(P 0. 05), Conclusion: Qixue Bingzhi Prescription can effectively and safely intervene in blood lipid metabolism and inflammatory reaction in the patient of cervical AS, and it has prospect of development in preventing formation of AS and stabilizing plaque.

AIM:To investigate the effect of chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS) on plasma endothelin,nitric oxide and interleukin-6,high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) in rats after acute myocardial infarction(AMI).METHODS:After the rats of myocardial infarction(MI) were established,the animals were treated under the condition of CUMS for 4 weeks,then the contents of plasma(or serum) endothelin,nitric oxide,interleukin-6 and hs-CRP were measured and data were analyzed by two factor factorial analysis. RESULTS:The results of factorial analysis showed:MI alone had no significantly effect on the level of nitric oxide(P>0.05),but CUMS had significantly effect on increasing the level of nitric oxide(P<0.01). The CUMS had significantly interaction with MI on increasing the level of nitric oxide(P<0.01). Both MI and CUMS increased the level of hs-CRP(all P<0.01). However,no interaction was discovered between MI and CUMS(P>0.05). Both MI and CUMS had no effect on the level of ET-1 and IL-6(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:CUMS increases nitric oxide content and has cooperative effect with MI on increasing NO,both MI and CUMS significantly increase the level of CRP,but have no effect on the level of ET-1 or IL-6,suggesting that the abnormal increase in nitric oxide and hs-CRP contents may be the important pathophysiological changes of post-MI depression.

BACKGROUND: Adipokines are secreted by adipose tissue, including a series of cytokines and chemokines. Additionally, adipokines have been found to play certain roles in pro- and anti-inflammatory regulation. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the regulatory effect of various adipokines in the inflammatory process of autoimmune response and immune diseases, thus providing the strategy for controlling and treating autoimmune diseases and searching effective indexes for assessing disease development, incidence of complications and prognosis. METHODS: CNKI and PubMed databases were retrieved for the articles addressing the role of adipokines in autoimmune diseases published from 1986 to 2016 using the keywords of adipokine, autoimmune in English and Chinese, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Adipose tissue plays a critical role in metabolism regulation, and its effect on the immune system has emerged through a series of studies concerning adipokines regulating immune response. Adipokines exert various functions, and regulate metabolism and inflammation. In the development and occurrence of autoimmune diseases, some factors for immune responses remain unclear, and in-depth studies on adipokines will be helpful for lifting the veil of autoimmune diseases.
