Objective To study the chemical constituents in the roots of Hemerocallis fulva. MethodsCompounds were isolated from the CHCl3and n-butanol fraction of the EtOH extract by repeated column chromatography and their structures were identified by spectral analysis and physicochemical properties. Results From the CHCl3 and n-butanol fraction of the EtOH extract in the roots of H. fulva,ten compounds were isolated and identified as terresoxazine (Ⅰ),11-keto-?-boswellic acid (Ⅱ),hopane-6?,22-diol (Ⅲ),hecogenin (Ⅳ),stigmast-4-en-3?-ol (Ⅴ),stigmast-4-en-3-one (Ⅵ),?-feruloyloxy acid (Ⅶ),(E)-3,4-dihydroxyl cinnamic acid (Ⅷ),(E)-p-methyl cinnamic acid (Ⅸ),and vanillic acid (Ⅹ). Conclusion Compounds Ⅰ-Ⅳ,and Ⅶ are isolated and identified from the plants of Hemerocallis L. for the first time.

Objective To determine the relation between the expression of urocortin and corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 2? (CRH-R2?) in the placenta and pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Methods Placentas were collected from 20 pregnant women with preeclampsia as study group and 20 normal pregnant women as control group. Urocortin mRNA and CRH-R2? mRNA were measured by semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Urocortin peptide was measured by immunohistochemistry. Results (1) The mRNA expression of urocortin was significantly higher (P

Objective To establish a new and convenient assay for whole blood lead concentration. Methods Whole blood sample was digested by nitric acid-perchloric. Under the condition of pH 0.8~1.0, lead concentration was examined by Hydridegeneration Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometry.Results The method had good linearity when lead concentration were between 0 to 600 ?g/L, r =0.999. The within-run CV of the method for high, middle and low lead level were 4.1%, 3.6% and 3.5% respectively. The between-run CV were 4.9%, 4.6% and 4.7% respectively. The recovery rates were 105.4%, 98.5% and 94.8% respectively. The single-blind test result of series standard lead samples provided by Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine were within the acceptable range. The detecting Limit of this method was 0.3 ng. There was no significant interference from main two-valence positiveion. The sample can be storage at lest for 1 months at 4℃. Samples of 869 children from Tianjin were tested by this method. The mean value was 91.9 ?g/L, median was 83.8 ?g/L, all data were within 23.1~386.3 ?g/L. The result showed out positive skewness distribution.Conclusion This method were sensitive, accurate, precise, quick and low-cost. It was suitable for use in clinical laboratories.

Ninety nine patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN,n =59) or hemifacial spasm (HFS,n =40) underwent microvascular decompression (MVD) treatment in our hospital from January 2012 to December 2015,and were followed up for more than 1 year.Total 94 patients (94.9%) were cured after the surgery,including 55 TN cases (93.2%) and 39 HFS cases (97.5%).The 1-year follow up showed that total 98 patients (99.0%) were cured,including 58 TN cases (98.3%) and 40 HFS cases (100.0%).Among the HFS cases,1 patient got gentle spasm,1 patient got hearing deficit,1 patient got light facial palsy after the operation,and all recovered completely during the follow-up.Among the TN cases,4 patients got pain attack infrequently after the operation,3 of them recovered during the follow-up,and the symptoms were satisfactorily controlled by taking carbamazepine in rest 1 case.No cases had cerebrospinal fluid leakage or intracerebral infection.The results indicate that MVD is an effective treatment of HFS and TN with less surgical injury or complications.

Objective To study the effect of salmon calcitonin and physical therapy on lumbar spinal ste- nosis.Methods Eighty cases of lumbar spinal stenosis were divided into treatment and control groups.Physical therapy alone was given to the control group,but salmon calcitonin was injected intramuscularly in addition to phys- ical therapy for the patients in the treatment group.Visual analogue scale,range of motion (ROM),pain-free walking distance,tendon reflexes and functional independence measures (FIM) were observed to assess the re- sults.Results The VAS,ROM and walking distance of the treatment group improved more than those of the con- trol group,but the groups' tendon reflexes and FIM were similar.Conclusions Salmon caleitonin can reduce the symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis,and it has special effects in relieving pain.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound miniature probe(UMP)examination in tumor invasion(T staging) and local lymphatic node metastasis(N staging) for colorectal carcinoma. Methods Preoperative UMP examinations(12 MHz) were performed on 53 patients with colorectal carcinoma undergoing surgeries.The diagnosis accuracy of UMP examination in T and N staging was determined by comparison of the results of operation exploration and histopathologic findings. Results The accuracy in T staging for colorectal carcinoma was 86% with UMP examination,and that for early stage colorectal carcinoma was 100%.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity in N staging for colorectal carcinoma were 81%,77%,and 84%,respectively with UMP examination. Conclusion UMP examination works well in determining T stage of colorectal carcinoma,especially for early stage colorectal carcinoma and those with tumor stenosis.

Objective To study cervical central group (VI region) lymph node metastasis with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and correlative influencing factors.Methods Clinical data of 215 papillary thyroid microcarcinoma patients undergoing surgery between Jan 2007 and Jan 2011 were analyzed retrospectively.Results All patients accepted bilateral thyroidectomy and bilateral cervical central group lymph node dissection.The total incidence of cervical central group lymph node metastasis was 36.7% (79/215).Factors relating to cervical central group lymph node metastasis rate were:age (with one year elder,the likelyhood of lymph node metastasis was 0.935 times lesser),gender (the ratio of female to male was 0.202),the number of foci and the sum of the diameters of all lesions.Conclusions Patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma may suffer from lymph node metastasis of the cervical central group,and lymph node metastasis rate increases significantly in young or male patients,and when the lesions were multifocal or the sum of the tumor diameter > 0.5 cm.

Objective To investigate clinical characteristics of the multi-center breast DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ), in order to improve the rate of early diagnosis. Methods Clinical data of 23 multi-center breast DCIS patients admitted and operated on from September 2003 to February 2009 at our department were retrospectively reviewed. Results There were 4 cases associated with nipple discharge,and 18 cases with preoperative negative physical examination (78%). In the preoperative examination within 6 months, the positive rate of mammography was 90% mainly characterized by the existence of diffuse and multiple small calcifications. The positive rate of MRI was 25%, B ultrasound had no positive findings. The patients that were confirmed multi-center breast DCIS by intraoperative frozen section examination received mastectomy and ipsilateral axillary L1, L2 lymph node dissection. Conclusion The diffuse and multiple small calcification is one of early clinical characteristics of multi-center breast DCIS. Although the disease has a wide range of lesion, it still is an early tumor, and has a favourite prognosis after comprehensive treatment.
