Objective To explore the variation of the main chemical constituents of Herb Epimedii in decocting Herb Epimedii and Radix Astragali separately and compatibly. Methods Herb Epimedii combined with Radix Astragali were decocted with water in which the proportion of them were 1∶0, 2∶1, 1∶1, 1∶2 and 0∶1, respectively. RP-HPLC was used to compare the content of icariin and the fingerprints in separate and compatible decoction. Results Afeter combination, the number of chromatographic peaks were added and no new peaks were detected. The contents of some chemical constituents such as icariin in Herb Epimedii were increased, especially in the compatible decoction at the proportion was 1∶1. Some constituents were not changed obviously. Conclusion Herb Epimedii decocted together with Radix Astragali especially at a ratio of 1∶1 can increase the solubility of the chemical constituents in Herb Epimedii. This provides a scientific basis for more effective use of the compatible decoction of the two herbs.

Based on fundamental theory, literatures of TCM and clinical practice, we have found that there are some errors in the theory of stroke. We put forward several views on it: Firstly, the key reason of stroke is the hidden pathogenic factor which is phlegm and stasis, but not wind and fire. Secondly, the production of wind is due to the liver-blood injury caused by phlegm and stasis; the production of f ire is due to whether the liver-blood injury caused by phlegm and stasis or the f ire stagnated by phlegm and stasis in pericardium. Thirdly, the disease location of stroke is in the level of spirit, not in channels and collaterals. Liver soul injury leads to paralysis and aphemia. Lung soul injury leads to numbness. Kidney will injury leads to sensory aphasia. Pericardium invaded by phlegm and stasis, mind disorder will exists. Fourthly, spirit injury is a def icient syndrome, and supplementing blood and qi is the key of treatment, and expelling phlegm and stasis, balancing yin and yang are also needed. The main treatment principles of liver soul injury, lung soul injury, kidney will injury and pericardium injury are tonifying blood, cultivating qi, replenishing essence and nourishing both qi and blood respectively.

Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2001;0(06):-
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pneumocystoscopy for congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction. Methods A total of 18 children (male 11 and female 7, aged from 3 months to 7 years with a mean of 3.6 years) with congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction (22 ureters) were enrolled in this study. Among the patients, 9 had vesicoureteral reflux (4 of them had bilateral reflux), 2 had bladder diverticulum complicated with urethral stenosis, and 7 had urethral stenosis and ipsilateral hydronephrosis. After the bladder was insufflated with CO2 through a Foley catheter (16 mm Hg), three trocars were inserted into the bladder, and the bladder was fixed on the abdominal wall using silk thread. By pneumocystoscopy, the Cohen procedure was done through the trocars. A Foley catheter was indwelled at the end of the procedure. Results The procedure was completed in all but one patient, who was converted to open surgery because the contraction of the urethra. The mean operation time was 130 min (110 to 145 min) for unilateral cases (13), and 242 min (225 to 250 min) for bilateral cases. The patients were discharged form hospital 9 to 12 days after the operation, and were followed up fro 6 months to 5 years with a mean of 3.8 years. During this period, MUC showed no ureteral reflux. One of the cases developed mild infection of the urethra, and was cured by circumcision. Conclusion Pneumocystoscopy is effective for congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction.

International Eye Science 2014;(6):1074-1076
AIM: To compare the effect of treating cataract by sodium hyaluronate injection and lens - loop nucleus extraction of small incision cataract excision and explore more suitable method to promote the use of surgery in primary hospital.
METHODS: All 146 cataract patients ( 166 eyes ) were allocated to two groups in random: the control group 78 patients ( 84 eyes ) received conventional lens loop for extracapsular cataract extraction;the experiment group 68 patients (82 eyes) underwent nucleus extraction in small incision with sodium hyaluronate injection for extracapsular cataract extraction. Postoperative visual acuity and intraoperative and postoperative complications were compared between two groups.
RESULTS: Incidence of posterior capsule rupture difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05) in small incision nucleus extraction with sodium hyaluronate injection compared with conventional lens loop for extracapsular cataract extraction. And there was no significant difference ( P> 0. 05 ) in postoperative visual acuity, astigmatism degree and postoperative complications compared with those of pre-operation.
CONCLUSION: Compared with the lens loop nucleus extraction, sodium hyaluronate injection for extracapsular cataract extraction can effectively protect the posterior lens capsule and can be promoted in small incision cataract surgery.
