AIM:To evaluate the efficacy of Wuling Capsule(xylaria) in treating senile systolic hypertension. METHODS: Sixty-four patients with senile systolic hypertension were randomly divided into two groups.Both the treated group and the control group were treated with anti-hypertensive for 4 weeks,but the treated group received Wuling Capsule.Therapentic effects were evaluated with HAMA.Noninvasive resting blood pressure was taken every day after treatment,and dynamic blood pressure before and after treatment. RESULTS: HAMA in both groups decreased somewhat but blood pressure in the treated group was lower than that in the control group,remission rate of the treated group was greater than that in the control group.Treatment period of the treated group was shorter than that of the control group. CONCLUSION: Wuling Capsule can relief anxiety in senile hypertension patients,and it can rise the control rate of blood pressure,and also shorten the treatment period.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and safety of breviscapine combined with vinpocetine in the treatment of acute cerebral infraction. METHODS:A total of 80 patients with acute cerebral infraction were selected from our hospital during Jan. 2014-Dec. 2015,and then divided into observation group and control group according to random number table,with 40 cases in each group. Control group was given Vinpocetine injection 20 mL+0.9％ Sodium chloride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd. Observa-tion group was additionally given Breviscapine injection 20 mL+5％ Glucose injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd,at intervals of 2-3 h on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Clinical efficacies as well as serum copeptin,NT-proBNP,albu-min cobalt binding(ACB)value,European stroke scale(ESS)and functional independence measurement(FIM)score before and after treatment were observed in 2 groups,and the occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:Total response rate of observation group(90.0％)was significantly higher than that of control group(67.5％),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treat-ment,there was no statistical significance in serum peptide,NT-proBNP,ACB value,ESS or FIM score between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,serum copeptin and NT-proBNP levels of 2 groups were decreased significantly,while ACB value,ESS and FIM score were increased significantly;the improvement of observation group was significantly better than that of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Breviscapine combined with vinpocetine can improve neurological function of acute cerebral infraction patients and show good therapeutic efficacy with good safety.

Objective To evaluate the effect of individualized diet nursing on nasogastric gavage-indueced complications after operations on laryngeal cancer? Methods Sixty patients having undergone surgical operation on laryngeal cancer were randomly divided into experiment group and control group in equal number? The control group received nutritional support by conventional enteral nutrition and the experiment group was managed by individualized diet nursing with nasogastric feeding? On days 3 and 10 after operation,the two groups were compared in terms of body constitution,results of experimental tests and complications?Result Compared to the control group,the experiment group showed no significant difference in terms of body constitution and results of experimental tests(P > 0?05)but significantly lower rate of complications on days 3 and 10(P < 0?05)? Conclusion The individualized diet nursing for laryngeal cancer patients may ensure their needs for nutrition,meanwhile reduce the incidences of complications from enteral nutrition,and thus promote their recovery?

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-dose ambroxol in treating acute exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).Methods The trial design was random,open,and parallel control.126 patients with AECOPD were involved.High-dose group received ambroxol 150 mg 3 times per day for 7 days (n=46),while conventional-dose group given ambroxol 30 mg 3 times per day for 7 days (n=40) and control group was given a routine treatment (antibiotic therapy,oxygen inhalation and bronchodilators) (n=40).Results The effective rates of high-dose group and conventional-dose group (95.6 ％,77.5 ％) were significantly higher compared with control group (55.0％) (x2 =19.81,4.53,both P＜0.05).The average duration of hospitalization was significantly lower in high-dose group (10.78 ±0.95)d and conventional-dose group (11.75±0.84)d comparing with control group (13.15±0.89)d (q=11.88,7.24,both P＜0.05).The clinical efficacy in high dose group was much better.Conclusions High-dose ambroxol is a safe and efficient therapy in the treatment of acute exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

[Objective]To investigate etiopathogenisis,modus operandi and rehabilitation in treatment of bone nonunion and residual deformity (cubitus valgus) after humeral lateral condyle fractures in children. [Method]The author retrospective summarized a total of 27 patients diagnosed with humeral lateral condyle fracture follow with bone nonunion and/or cubitus valgus consecutive enrolled in Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from 2001 to 2006,including 19 cases of male,8 cases of female,16 cases of right humeral lateral condyle fracture and 11 cases of left. The mean age at injured for all the patients (n =27) was 5.6 yr (range 3-10 yr).The mean age at suigical operation for all the patients (n =27) was 9 yr (range 5-14 yr).The average time from injury to operation was 2.8 yr (range 8mon-10 yr).There were three modus operations including direct normal position internal fixation of 7 cases,open reduction following os illium bone graft internal fixation of 11 cases,distant humerus varus wedge shape cut orthopaedic for 9 cases.[Result]Thirteen patients were followed up ranging from 6 month to 2 years,and 14 patients over 2 years. All the patients were achieved union for 8 to 16 weeks after surgery. Elbow deformity had been corrected and function of elbow joint had been recoverd satisfactorily. All of them,excellent rerult were found in 13 cases,good in 11 cases,and poor in 3 cases,the excellent and good rates was 88.9%. None of the cases happened with osteonecrosis,traumatic arthritis and myositis ossificans.[Conclusion]It is common that delay treatment of humeral lateral condyle fractures in children can result in bone nonunion and residual deformity (cubitus valgus) and it is difficult for treatment. Corresponding surgical treatment with different condition and early exercise can improve the appearance and function of elbow joint.

Objective In order to investigate and evaluate the heating-ventilating-air conditioning (HVAC) systems in the public areas and therefore provide the support for the hygiene management. Methods According to Hygiene Criterion of HVAC System, 10 HVAC systems in 10 star grade hotels in Nanchang were selected and PM10 and the total count of aerobic bacterial in the air condition systems, the collected dust weight and the total count of aerobic bacterial in the dust in the inner surface of ventilation vessels, the legionella bacteria in cooling tower water were determined. Results The HVAC systems in the 10 hotels, 90.1% for the PM10 and 73.3% for the total count of aerobic bacterial in the air condition systems, 8.9% for the collected dust weight and 86.7% for the total count of aerobic bacterial in the dust in the inner surface of ventilation vessels were over the standard limits, the legionella bacteria were detected in two of the investigated HVAC systems cooling tower water. Conclusion The hygienic problems are existed in the ventilated systems in the air conditioners in the pubic places.The health supervision and monitoring must go on enhancing.
