As a characteristic tumor therapy in China, Chinese medicine (CM) plays an important position in comprehensive treatment of tumor. It's a critical issue of objective realization, analysis and evaluation of CM safety for scientific decision-making in tumor safe medication and it also is a pivotal issue which affects the international communication. The safety evaluation of CM includes three phases: pre-clinical safety evaluation, clinical trials (micro-dose studies and traditional clinical trials) and post-marketing CM safety assessment. The key point of evaluation should be distinguished among different stages and various types of CM (such as classic formulas, Chinese herbal extracts, etc). Emphasis should be given to chronic toxicity when evaluating oral Chinese herbal , microdose studies and quality control must be underlined while injection is evaluated and more attention should be pay to the dose-effect relationship and time-effect relationship when turned to toxic Chinese medicine , and so as for the toxicity grading study. Moreover, we should constantly improve CM safety assessment method in various stages of tumor treatment, such as introducing the concept of syndrome classification theory, bringing in metabonomics and real-world research method which are similar to the CM therapeutic concept. Most importantly, we must keep its own feature of CM theory when we learn the concept of safety evaluation from abroad. Actively exploring the anti-tumor medicine safety evaluation methods and strategies is of great significance for clinical and experimental research, and it can provide supportability platform to CM's international communication.

BACKGROUND:With the prevalence of total hip arthroplasty,the demand for revision has been increased due to the prosthesis life and various complications.OBJECTIVE:To retrospectively analyze the reasons and clinical effectiveness of revision,clinical application of revision prosthesis,and related revision techniques.METHODS:Clinical data of 85 patients undergoing total hip revision were analyzed retrospectively.Among which,there were 23 cases of biological T.O.P acetabular cup (allograft bone graft) plus polyethylene liner,51 cases of titanium mesh cup plus bone cement fixation,and 11 cases of common acetabular cup;common hip stem in 63 cases (including 47 cases of bone cement fixation);lengthened hip stem in 34 cases (16 cases of modular prosthesis and 18 cases of bone cement fixation).Subsequently,the hip function was assessed by Harris hip scores.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:All cases were followed up,and the mean follow-up was 30.2 months.(1) The average Harris hip scores changed from preoperative 30.07 to postoperative 90.32.The wound healed well,no dislocation or infection,and the hip function was improved significantly.(2) To conclude,aseptic loosening of the prosthesis is the main cause of reversion occurred,followed by prosthesis dislocation.Acetabular wall bone defect and decrease in bone mass are the main problems in revision.Adequate preoperative preparation for possible and unexpected events,and reasonable selection of prosthesis according to the bone defects will be helpful.Noticeably,early arthroplasty reversion will obtain good clinical efficacy.

Objective: To investigate the mechanism of combined growth hormone and fibrin glue on early healing of intestinal anastomosis in intra-abdominal sepsis rats.Methods: Male Wistar rats of abdominal sepsis were randomized into 3 groups.Control rats were given intestinal anastomosis after intestinal fistula operation.Glue group was given intestinal anastomosis and fibrin glue after intestinal fistula.GH group was given intestinal anastomosis and fibrin glue and growth hormone after intestinal fistula.FN,?-SMA,VEGF,and apoptosis in anastomoses were measured.Results: Expression of intestinal FN,?-SMA,and VEGF in GH group were higher than those in other groups and apoptosis were lower than others.Conclusion: It is indicated that combined growth hormone and fibrin glue ameliorates healing of intestinal anastomosis in intra-abdominal sepsis rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of Kangaroo care(KC)on diminishing neonatal pain during heel lancing. Methods Sixty neonates were divided randomly into two equal groups:intervention group and control group,which 30 cases in each group.In the intervention group,neonates were treated with KC(neonates were put in direct and continuous skin-to-skin contact with his/her mom)from 20 mins before heel lancing to 1 mins after the end of the lancing.In the control group,neonates were treated with regular care.The differences in heart rate,blood oxygen saturation,facial pain expression,crying duration and DAN(Douleur Aigue Nouveaune)scores between two groups were compared at 7 time points from 10s before the heel lancing to 10s after the lancing. Results The results of repeated measu te at 7 time points after heel lancing.There were significant interaction effect between time and main effect(P<0.01),which showed that the heart rate of two groups were not equal at different time points.Compared with the time effects(P<0.01)which showed that two groups of neonatal heart rate of the two groups would accelerate with time extension. There were significant differences(all P<0.05)in heart rate at 7 time points between two groups and smaller heart rate varied range in intervention group.The results of repeated measures analysis for neonatal blood oxygen saturation at 7 time points after heel lancing. There were significant interaction effect between time and main effects(P<0.01),which showed that the blood oxygen saturation of two groups were not equal at different time points.Compared with the time effect(P<0.01),which showed that two groups of neonatal blood oxygen saturation would reduce with time extension.There were significant differences(all P<0.05)in blood oxygen saturation of two groups at 30s,40s and 50s after heel lancing and smaller blood oxygen saturation varied range in intervention group.The crying duration and DAN scores in intervention group were significantly reduced compared with the controls(all P<0.05).Conclusions
Heel lancing could lead to moderate to severe pain of neonates.KC could effectively diminish the neonatal pain degree caused by heel lancing.

Objective: To investigate the mechanism of intestinal anastomosis in a rat model of intra-abdominal sepsis.Methods:Male Wistar rats were randomized into 2 groups.Control rats underwent intestinal anastomosis.Sepsis group underwent intestinal anastomosis after intestinal fistula operation.fibronectin(FN),?-smooth muscle actin(?-SMA),vascular endorthelial growth factor(VEGF) and apoqtosis in anastomoses were measured.Results:FN,?-SMA,VEGF in control group were higher than sepsis group and apoptosis were lower than the other.Conclusion:It is indicated that the repair of tissue was out of balance after infection,and the organization repair was retarded.The collagenoblast and the epithelial cell migration were slowed down,and the blood capillary regeneration was slowly.Not only the granulation organization was reduced,but also apoptosis was prematurely appeared.

· AIM: To discuss the cause and management of complications during the manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS).combined with intraocular lens implant (MSICS-IOL) were done in 160 patietns with cataract. In this paper, we reviewed the clinical data of the intraoperative complications.injury, posterior capsule rupture, iris prolapse and hyphema, were mainly caused by inexpert skill and lacking of experience.techniques, careful operation could decrease the incidence of complications during MSICS operation. By proper management, the intraoperative complications could be solved satisfactorily.

ObjectiveTo explore effects of food viscosity and sex on hyoid motion during swallowing in normal elder.MethodsVideofluoroscopic studies were done in 60 healthy elder. Hyoid motion during swallowing food with different viscosity was measured.ResultsOlder male had longer movement duration, greater amplitudes of upward and forward movement than older female (P<0.05). Amplitudes of upward movement in jam thick swallow and bread thick swallow were greater than that in liquid swallow (P<0.01). Bread thick swallow had the longest movement duration; liquid swallow had shortest movement duration.ConclusionThe hyoid bone moves both upward and forward during swallowing, the amplitude of upward displacement is highly variable and influenced by food viscosity. The duration and amplitude of hyoid motion in male or female are different.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical applicability and outcomes of the combined radical operation without breaking the lower lip and mandible with one-stage reconstruction using free anterolateral thigh flap for tongue and lingual root carcinoma.

METHODSThe operation with or without breaking lower lip and mandible was performed respectively in 245 patients (experimental group) and 120 patients (control group).

RESULTSRemoval of tumor and neck dissection were conducted successfully in all patients of two groups with no serious postoperative complication. With the follows-up of 6 to 36 months, in the patients of experimental group there was no recurrence for primary sites but 3 cases with neck lymphnode recurrence, the functions of chewing, swallowing and speaking were good, there was no damage to appearance, and no osteoradionecrosis occurred in the lymphnode positive cases after radiotherapy; in the patients of experimental group there was no recurrence for primary sites but 4 cases with neck lymphnode recurrence, the functions of chewing, swallowing and speaking were good, but there was apparent scar in neck and face, and osteoradionecrosis occurred in 11 of lymphnode positive cases.

CONCLUSIONSThe combined radical operation without breaking the lower lip and mandible with one-stage reconstruction using free anterolateral thigh flap is feasible for tongue and lingual root carcinoma (T2-T3), which reduces the risk for osteoradionecrosis in lymphnode positive cases after radiotherapy and keeps good appearance for patients.
