? AIM: To investigate the immunosuppression of artemisinin in the early-phase response( EPR) of allergic conjunctivitis in a murine model induced by pollen.?METHODS:Twenty-five Balb/c mice were divided into five groups at random: A: model group, B: artemisinin topical treatment group, C: oral artemisinin group, D:dexamethasone topical treatment group, E: negative control group. Balb/c mice were first sensitized with mixture of ragweed crude extract and complete Freund’s adjuvant by left footpad and root of tails injection at days 0. At days 7 and 14, mice were strengthen sensitized by intraperitoneal injection. Negative control group replacd with a mixture of equal amounts of Freund’s adjuvant and PBS mixture. Treatment time was between 21-27d:group B received 1% topical artemisinin eye drops 4 times per day; group C received artemisinin at doses of 600mg/kg orally once per day; group D received topical dexamethasone eye drops 4 times per day. The model and naive groups replaced with solvent for control. After treatment, mice were excited by ragweed pollen crude infusion drops. Within 1h after the excitation, the eyes were taken for histopathology testing, the serum for detection of specific IgE for ragweed pollen.?RESULTS:After excitation, allergy symptoms of model group were more significantly compared with negative control group and the treatment groups; allergy symptom score, mast cell degranulation ratios and the ragweed pollen specific IgE in serum in the topical treatment groups and oral group were higher than that in the negative control group, but significantly lower than that in model group.?CONCLUSION: Artemisinin topical treatment and oral treatment for mice could inhibit the symptoms of pollen allergic conjunctivitis, early-phase response of mast cell degranulation ratio and specific IgE generation for ragweed pollen, suggesting that artemisinin has some therapeutic effect for pollen allergic conjunctivitis.

Conclusion WHO classification has clinical guiding significance for early diagnosis,therapy observation and prognosis decision.

Objective To explore surgical treatment through posterior approach to reduce the fracture and dislocation complicated with longitudinal ligaments and intervertebral disc rupture in the thoracic or lumbar spine. Methods Eighteen cases suffered from the fracture and dislocation complicated with longitudinal ligaments and intervertebral disc rupture in the thoracic or lumbar spine between January 2001 and May 2004, retrospectively were reviewed all the patients are male, aged from 19 to 58 years old (average 38 years). All the patients are paraplegia. The involved vertebrae are T11 to L 3. All the lateral X-ray films showed the fractured vertebra taking on wedged shape. The posterior vertebral body-height was decreased in six patients. The fractured vertebra lost its height by 1/4 to 3/4 of normal height. The upper vertebral dislocation extent was from 25% to 100%. Two cases complicated with lateral displacement. All the patients were operated on within posttraumatic 10 days. One of the two posterior surgical techniques was used for a given patient: 1) One technique is implantation of pedicle-screws in upper and lower vertebrae just adjacent to fractured vertebra. 2) Another technique is implantation of pedicle-screws both in fractured vertebra and its adjacent upper and lower vertebrae. Results All the patients were followed up 3 months to 3 years (average 18 months). 8 cases were treated with two-vertebrae 4 pedicle-screws implantation technique, the height of fractured vertebral body was not improved in 5 cases, partially improved in 3 cases. The dislocation of the upper vertebra adjacent to fractured vertebra was partially improved in 6 case, not changed in 1 case, got worse in 1 case. 10 cases were treated with three-vertebrae 6 pedicle-screws implantation technique, the height of fractured vertebral body was all improved by 80% to 100%. The dislocation of the upper vertebra was corrected completely in all the ten cases. Conclusion The procedure of three-vertebrae 6 pedicle-screws implantation is practical, effective and useful for treatment of the fracture and dislocation comlicated with longitudinal ligaments and intervertebral disc rupture in the thoracic or lumbar spine.

Objective To look for a method of LC with minimal invasion and better exposure. Methods During laparoscopic cholecystectomy with three holes, a needle with a No.7 thread was pierced to the abdominal cavity at the right eighth intercostal space and the fundus of the gallbladder was sutured. The gallbladder traction was performed by the thread to help exposure of the operative filed. LC of 90 cases were operated on by the method. Results All of the 90 cases were cured without any complication. Conclusions External abdominal gallbladder traction is more effective with minimal invision and better exposure as compared with the routine LC.

Objective To investigate the value of MR DWI in comparing inflammatory with metastastic lymph node in animal models of lymph disease.Methods Eighteen rabbits with benign lymphadenopathy and 9 rabbits with malignant lymphadenopathy underwent routine MRI and DWI examination.Independent-samples t test was used to compare the sizes and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values between the two groups.Results Thirty-four inflammatory lymph nodes and 18 metastastic lymph nodes were observed .The size of lymph nodes was (8.14±2.79) and (6.29±1.48) mm in the benign and malignant groups, respectively.There was no significant statistical difference between the sizes of the two groups (t=2.624, P 0.05).Mean ADC value of lymph nodes was (1.19±0.31)×10-3mm2/s and (1.31±0.27)×10-3mm2/s in the benign and malignant groups, respectively.There was no significant statistical difference between the ADC values of benign and malignant lymph nodes (t=1.449,P 0.05).Conclusion DWI sequence can be used to show lymphadenopathy, but the ADC value is insufficient to differentiate benign lymph nodes from malignant lymphadenopathy.
