Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of lung-clearing and spleen-strengthening tuina on exogenous cough in children. Methods: A total of 77 children with exogenous cough that met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group according to the random number table, with 39 cases in the treatment group and 38 cases in the control group. The routine lung-clearing manipulation was used in the two groups, while the spleen- strengthening manipulation was added in the treatment group. Both groups were treated once a day, 5 times as a course of treatment. After one course of treatment, the symptom score and clinical efficacy were observed. Results: There were one dropout in the treatment group and 2 dropouts in the control group. Therefore, a total of 74 cases were finally included in the analysis, with 38 cases in the treatment group and 36 cases in the control group. After treatment, there was a statistically significant difference in cough score between the two groups (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the score of poor appetite between the two groups (P<0.05). After treatment, the total effective rate was 89.5％ in the treatment group versus 75.0％ in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: The therapeutic efficacy of lung-clearing spleen-strengthening manipulation is better than that of lung-clearing tuina manipulation alone for children with exogenous cough; regulating spleen and stomach can improve the curative efficacy of exogenous cough in children.

AIM:To compare the influence of anterior chamber maintainer and viscoelastic agent on corneal astigmatism and endothelial cells after phacoemulsification.METHODS:Totally 70 patients(70 eyes) of cataract from April 2013 to April 2015 were randomly divided into the study group and the control group, with 35 cases in each group.The study group were treated with anterior chamber maintainer during phacoemulsification with support system approach, and the control group were treated with phacoemulsification under viscoelastic agent.RESULTS:The age (t=0.215, P=0.831), the density of corneal endothelial cells (t=-0.352, P=0.726) and corneal luminosity (t=-0.162, P=0.872) of two groups had no significant difference before surgery;there were no significant difference in preoperative visual acuity (t=0.463, P=0.599) and visual acuity (t=1.616, P=0.124) at 1mo after operation.And patients in the study group (t=-21.129, P<0.01) and the control group (t=-12.780, P<0.01) before surgery and 1mo postoperative when compared with the naked eye eyesight showed significant difference.The visual acuity after operations improved significantly.There were significant differences of corneal endothelial cells density (t=8.489, P< 0.01) and corneal astigmatism (t=-2.032, P=0.046) in the study group before surgery and 1mo after surgery;corneal endothelial cell density (t=8.999, P<0.01) and corneal astigmatism (t=-2.167, P=0.034) in the control group before surgery and 1mo after surgery also had significant differences.There was no significant difference in the rate of corneal endothelial cell loss between the two groups (t=0.410, P=0.683).CONCLUSION:Compared with viscoelastic agent, anterior chamber maintainer during phacoemulsification in patients with cataract won't increase the damage of postoperative surgically induced astigmatism and corneal endothelial cells, which mean the method of anterior chamber maintainer during phacoemulsification in the treatment of cataract is safe and effective.

Objective To evaluate the value of the color Doppler ultrasonography in assessing the changes of the superficial palmar arch arteries and the proper palmar digital arteries in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon.Methods The color Doppler ultrasonography was used to check the left superficial palmar arch arteries and the left middle finger proper palmar digital arteries in 42 patients with Raynaud's phenomenon (case group).The blood vessel flow,blood flow filling and hemodynamic parameters were recorded.The hemodynamic parameters include peak systolic velocity (PSV),end diastolic velocity (EDV),resistance index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI).The control group was 35 healthy adults who received physical examination.The above parameters were measured,and the difference of the parameters between the case group and the control group were compared.Results The blood flow signal dispayed rate of the left superficial palmar arch arteries of case group was good,almost 100％ (42/42);the blood flow of the middle finger proper palmar digital arteries was poor,the blood vessel was thinner and even occluded,the blood flow signal displayed rate was 92.86％ (39/42).Compared with the control group,the PSV and EDV of the left middle finger proper palmar digital arteries decreased,the EDV of the superficial palmar arch arteries decreased also,but the RI and PI increased in case group (all P＜0.05),The PSV of the left superficial palmar arch arteries of the case group was lower than that of the control group,and there was no significant difference between both groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion The color Doppler ultrasonography can evaluate the hemodynamic changes of the proper palmar digital arteries and the superficial palmar arch arteries in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon,and provide effective evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of Raynaud's phenomenon.

Objective To investigate the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (bone marrow stem cells,BMSCs) through different approaches in the treatment of transplanted cirrhotic model in rabbit effect difference.Methods Establishment of rabbit model of carbon tetrachloride cirrhosis with liquid olive oil mixture of subcutaneous inj ection and ethanol fed,the liver cirrho-sis models were randomly divided into cirrhosis model group (n=10),hepatic artery transplantation group (n=10),ear vein trans-plantation group (n=10).Healthy New Zealand rabbits bone marrow,using the method of whole bone marrow adherent cultured bone marrow BMSCs,and then were transplanted and serum albumin,alanine aminotransferase in 3 ways;by HE staining,the de-gree of hepatic cirrhosis and detection of serum albumin by Western blot expression in liver.Results Through the vein group and ar-tery transplantation group BMSCs to cirrhotic model in rabbit,4 weeks after the discovery of liver transplantation group rabbits were significantly improved,serum albumin is liver cirrhosis without transplantation group increased significantly(P<0.05),transami-nase is liver cirrhosis without transplantation group decreased significantly (P<0.05).The therapeutic effect of 2 ways of BMSCs transplantation on rabbit liver cirrhosis had a significant difference (P<0.05).Conclusion Transplantation of BMSCs through the ear vein and the hepatic artery of rabbit after 4 weeks of treatment of liver cirrhosis,liver function can be improved.But the hepatic artery transplantation therapy is obviously better than that of intravenous transplantation of treatment effect.

Background Orbital tumor has complex histological types and it is difficult for clinical differential diagnosis.Therefore, it is badly in need of a new diagnostic technology to distinguish its benign and malignancy.Objective This study aimed to analyze and compare the characteristics of contrast ultrasound image between benign and malignant orbital neoplasms and evaluate the diagnostic value of contrast ultrasound to orbital tumor.Methods The clinical data of 24 patients with malignant orbital neoplasms and 51 patients with benign orbital neoplasms were retrospectively analyzed in Taihe Hospital of Hubei University of Medicine from September 2010 to September 2013.Contrast ultrasound examination was carried out on all the patients using MyLab Twice color ultrasonic device under the informed consent.SonoVue solution of 2.0 ml was intravenously injected and then the state and dynamic graphs of orbital tumors were collected.According to the classification of enhanced levels and patterns,the imaging features of orbital neoplasms were evaluated, and time-intensity curve (TIC) and dynamic vascular pattern (DVP) curve were obtained with SonoLiver software.The general ultrasonic signs and contrast ultrasonic characteristics between benign and malignant neoplasms were compared.Results Hyper-enhanced lesions were found in 62.5％ (15/24) and 27.5％ (14/51) ,and iso-intensity lesions were found in 20.8％ (5/24) and 49.0％(25/51) in the malignant orbital neoplasm patients and benign ones, respectively, with a significant difference in enhanced types between them (x2 =26.40,P＜0.01).Based on the enhanced mode, heterogeneity enhancement lesions were found in 75.0％ (18/24) and 25.5％ (13/51), and hemogeneity enhancement lesions were seen in 25.0％(6/24) and 47.1％ (24/51) in the malignant orbital neoplasm patients and benign ones, respectively, showing a significant differnee between them (x2 =30.40, P ＜ 0.01).The 58.3％ patients showed rapid rising and sharp descending TIC curves,and 75.0％ patients showed the biphasic wave DVP curves in the malignant lesions;while in the benign lesions,the TIC curves of 78.7％ patients were quick lift and slow dessend, and the DVP curves of 74.5 ％patients appeared to be positive phasic wave.These curve features were significantly different between the malignant lesions and benign ones (TIC:Z=-3.130,P=0.002;DVP:Z =-4.730,P =0.000).Conclusions Contrastultrasound examination shows that different tissue-derived orbital neoplasms have varied enhanced modes and types.Contrast-ultrasound examination is helpful for the differential diagnosis of orbital neoplasms.

Objective To evaluate the ability of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS ) compared to enhanced MRI scan in differential diagnosis of benign and malign tumor of orbit.Methods CEUS and enhanced MRI was performed in 74 patients with tumor of orbit.These patients were divided into two groups:benign and malignant tumor depended on histological diagnosis.The results were analysed with SonoLiver software.The coincidence rate of diagnosis and enhancement intensity among CEUS,MRI and CEUS+ MRI were compared and the quantitative parameters of CEUS were analysed.Results (1 )The diagnostic accordance rate of benign group by three methods were 90.0%,80.0% and 96.0% respectively, there was statistical difference for diagnostic coincidence rate between the MRI and CEUS+ MRI(P <0.05).The diagnostic accordance rate of malignant group by the above three methods were 75.0%,79.2%and 95.8% respectively,there was no statistical difference for diagnostic coincidence rate between the three methods(all P > 0.05 ).(2 )The enhancement intensity of CEUS was different between benign and malignant groups (P <0.05).There was no statistical difference between benign and malignant groups by MRI method (P >0.05).(3)The parameters of tumor imaging obtained time intensity curve(TIC):rise time (RT),half elution time and time to peaking (TTP)were significantly different between benign and malignant groups(P <0.05).While there was no significant difference of parameters as mean transit time (mTT)and arrived time (AT)(P >0.05).Conclusions CEUS had higher diagnostic accuracy than MRI in benign orbital tumor.The contrast enhancement intensity and time-intensity curves provide valuable diagnostic information for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant orbital tumor.

OBJECTIVETo explore the feasibility and safety of dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil for lower eyelid blepharoplasty.

METHODS50 patients undergoing lower eyelid blepharoplasty ASA I - II were randomly divided into 2 groups (25 in each group) as observation group and control group. Dexmedetomidine (0.3 microg x kg(-1) x h(-1)) and remifentanil (0.05 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1)) were used in observation group. Local anesthesia by lidocaine (1%) combined with midazolam (0.04 mg/kg) intravenous sedation were used in control group. HR, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), breathing rate (RR), pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) change were monitored and recorded before and after the administration of the drug, as well as at the beginning of operation, during the operation, at the end of the operation, and 5 minutes after the operation. Patients sedation degree was evaluated by Ramsay. Operation time, recovery time, the incidence of adverse reactions, the satisfaction of patients and doctors were also recorded.

RESULTSPatients had no obvious difference of intraoperative MAP, RR, SpO2, operation time and postoperative recovery time between the two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with control group, HR during the operation were decreased significantly [(64.2 +/- 8.2) bpm, P < 0.05] in observation group. In control group, there were 18 cases of patients with agitation, but they endured the operation anyway. In observation group, 24 cases of patients underwent operation without agitation. The satisfaction of patients and the operation doctors (96%) in observation group were markedly higher than that in control group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONDexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil is practical and safe. The effect of reducing HR should be noticed.

Objective To evaluate therapeutic effect of transluminal angioplasty and stenting on arteriosclerosis related iliac arterial occlusive disease. Methods This retrospective study included a total of 61 cases (76 limbs) with iliac arterial atherosclerotic occlusive disease, grading as TASC A (n =29),B (n = 16), C (n = 11) and D (n = 5). Percutaneous interventional reconstruction and stent implantation were carried out in our hospital from December 2002 to December 2008. Results In 61 patients (76 lesions) 63 stents were implanted successfully with the success rate of 93% (71/76). The rate of clinical improvement was 100% among the patients who had primary technical success. The ankle-branchial index (ABI) improved from an average of 0. 33 ± 0. 17 before intervention to 0. 72 ± 0. 20 on the day following intervention (P < 0. 05). All cases were followed up between 6 month and 60 month. One year patency rate in all treated lesions was 90% (92% in the TASC A and B, 84% in the TASC C and D).Three year patency rate in all was 75% (80% in the TASC A and B, 63% in the TASC C and D). Five year patency rate was 72%. Conclusion There is a tendency towards utilizing transluminal angioplasty and stenting to treat iliac arterial occlusive disease as a therapy instead of traditional vascular surgery.
