Objective To compare the clinic effects of suspension and pillow elevation on limb swelling after elbow surgery. Methods One hundred patients receiving operations on elbow fracture were randomly divided into experiment group(suspension elevation)and the control group(pillow elevation)to eliminate limb swelling,50 cases in each group.The forearm circumference(10 cm below elbow)were measured 1-5d after operation,the circumferences on the first day and the fifth day recorded for comparing effects of the limb swelling elimination.Results The circumferences on the 1st day and 5th day of the suspension elevation group and the pillow elevation group were(2?53±0?76)cm,and(4?19±2?36)cm,respectively.The differences in circumference between the two groups were statistically significant(P<0?05).Conclusion The suspension elevation is more effective in promoting venous circulation and eliminating swelling,so it is conducive for the elbow fracture patients in early functional exercise?

UNLABELLEDTo explore the condition of CA storage for fruit of Siraitia grosvenorii.

METHODThe CA storage of 5% CO2, 15% CO2, 30% O2 under normal temperature was applied in the experiments, and the results were compared.

RESULTThe results showed that CA storage condition could alleviate the reduction of weight loss and water content, the best CA storage condition were 5% CO2, which alleviates the reduction of firmness and increases of soluble solid content during the 45 day period.

OBJECTIVETo establish the growth curve of Siraitia grosvenorii and analyze the correlation between seed and growth of fruit.

METHODThe growth curve fitting function was applied for the study of correlation between seed and fruit growth.

RESULTThe significant positive correlation existed between seed and horizontal diameter x vertical diameter, not between seed and flesh weight of single fruit.

CONCLUSIONThe growth curve is a reciprocal function, and seed is one of major factors to influencing the size of fruits and the shape of fruit.
