The infratemporal fossa abscess is an irregularly shaped cavity, situated below and media to the zygomatic arch. It consists of masseter and nervus vascularis, etc. Comparatively speaking, the low position of the infratemporal fossa has almost freed the patient from dental, nasal,ocular and aural source of pain. So facial acupuncture is more likely to cause the infection. But it is also possible that the patient get cryptogenic infection of maxillofacial cavity, the treatment of which needs further study.

Objective Through the investigation and analysis to "Chinese Medical Digest" and its relative periodicals to get a general idea of the survival and situation of these periodicals and to establish the pattern for their survival and development. Methods Such methods as telephone consultation, questionnaire survey, interview, and conference discussion were adopted to collect the relative information of medical digest periodicals and thus an analysis was made upon it. Results There were 18 kinds of "Chinese Medical Digest" periodicals originally. Of all these 18 kinds of the periodicals, 6 kinds are still publishing, 10 kinds have transferred its nature to first-hand literature periodical, and 2 kinds have ceased their publishment. Conclusion As a result of the computer, the network and the full text database development, the survival of medical digest periodicals are endangered. However, regarding to the different domain of subject, different reforming measures should be taken.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the comprehensive model for the prevention and treatment of community hypertension.METHODS:By questionnaire survey,the community hypertension target population was screened and the drug use in hypertensive patients was analyzed statistically.RESULTS:Of the 65 000 community residents investigated,1 250 were found to be hypertensive patients,with a total treatment rate of 80.0%;only 32.8% were treated with at least 2 kinds of drugs,and the overall blood pressure control efficacy was poor.CONCLUSION:The program of prevention and treatment for community hypertensive patients is conducive to patients' long term adherence to medication,scientific and rational drug use and effective and stable control of blood pressure.

Objective To investigate the charateristics of pathological changes in hippocampal subregions in rats with epilepsy induced with different doses kainic acid(KA) ,discuss the etiology and pathway of epileptic wave.Methods 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group,low(0.025 ?g) and high(0.1 ?g) dose KA injection groups with 10 rats each.KA was focally injected into the right amygdala by a glass micropipette connected to an air pressure system to make epilepsy model.The pathological characteristics in hippocampal subregions in rats with epilepsy induced with different doses KA were observed.Results Compared with control group,high dose KA injection mainly caused neuron loss in the CA3 region,while pyramidal and dentate granule cells were evenly distributed with normal shape and size.Low dose KA injection caused severe damage in both CA1 and CA3 regions.Dentate granule cells didn't show any pathological change and neuron loss in low dose injection.Conclusion The pathological changes in hippocampal subregions in rats with epilepsy induced with KA are different with different doses KA,it might be related to the pathway of epileptic wave and the specific properties of hippocampus.

?Dry eye is a multi-factorial disease of tear film and ocular surface, and it can result in discomfort, visual disturbance and tear film instability and potential damage of ocular surface, accompanied by hyper osmolarity of tears and ocular surface inflammation. lnflammation is the key factor to dry eye. Many kinds of immune cells and inflammatory factors are involved in the occurrence and development of dry eye syndrome. Cell apoptosis, nerve dysregulation, disorders of sex hormones also play an important role in pathologic process of dry eye. Recently, while illustrating the pathophysiology and pathogenesis of dry eye has been made some progress, there is still no single standard. The possible mechanisms of ocular surface inflammation and tear dysfunction of dry eye were reviewed in this article.

Objective:To detect the activity of IgY against complex bacteria in pharynx and throat.Methods:Purified antigens against bacteria in pharynx and throat was used to immunize egglaid hens.The eggs from immunized hens were collected and abstract IgY from the yolks.The antibody activity of IgY was detected by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and ELISA.Results:SDS-PAGE electrophoresis represented at least twelve ladders,and the titer of ELISA was 1∶512.Conclusion:IgY antibody was obtained in egg yolk after immunized hens with complex bacteria.The activity of IgY was detected.IgY showed stable to heat.

Objective To investigate the chemical constituents of Lappula echinata and determine the antibacterial activity.Methods A new quinolone alkaloid was isolated from the BuOH extract of L.echinata by silica gel column chromatography and gel column chromatography.Its structure was identified by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, 2D-NMR, HR-MS, UV, and IR spectral data analysis.Its antibacterial activity was determined by KB method.Results A new quinoloe alkaloid named 8-methoxy-4-quinolone-2-caboxylic acid was isolated from L.echinata and was found to have antibacterial activity on Pseudomonas pyocyanea ATCC 27853, EPEC O111, pneumobacillus and Staphylococcus epidermidis.Conclusion This is a new compound with antibacterial activity.

Objective To analyze chest radiographic features of acute mercury vapour poisoning.Methods All cases of acute inhaled mercury vapour poisoning underwent radiograph image of the chest,one case corpse underwent morbid anatomy.Results To the 16 cases with high concentration of acute inhaled mercury vapour,mercury poisoning pneumonia appeared in 11 cases and mercury poisoning pulmonary hydropsy in 5 cases.Conclusion There are characteristic chest radiographic in acute inhaled mercury vapour poisoning,with clinical and laboratory examination may make a definition.

The research and development of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is a rapidly developing field. From the first generation of murine mAbs to the fourth generation of fully human mAbs, the efficacy and safety of mAbs in the treatment of various diseases have been continuously improved. In order to regulate the development and evaluation of mAbs, drug regulatory agencies and pharmacopeias of America and China have tried to issue feasible test procedures and acceptance criteria for quality evaluation of mAbs and biosimilars. Mass spectrometry (MS) technique with high sensitivity, resolution, selectivity, and specificity has become an important tool to evaluate the quality characteristics of monoclonal antibody-related products or specify mAb quality. The research of MS-based monoclonal antibody study involves structure characterization, impurity analysis, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), etc. This review focuses on the current quality control requirements of mAb related products and the development of MS technique for mAb quality characterization and specification. It is expected to provide information and references for evaluating the quality of monoclonal antibodies under research and development.

AIM To investigate the effects of thiopental sodium on nitric oxide synthases (NOS) activity and nitride oxide (NO) in different rats cerebral synaptic membrane. METHODS Forty SD rats were divided randomly into five groups. The animals were injected introperitoneally (ip)thiopental sodium 30 mg?kg -1 or normal saline 10 ml?kg -1 (control group ) respectively. These rats were immediately decapitated before (induction group) and after (anaesthetic group) having disappeared righting reflex, and when righting reflex appeared again (recovery group), and completely conscious (awake group). In order to prepare synapsis, brain tissues were dissected on ice, then homogenized and centrifuged. NOS activity and NO was estimated by spectrophotometry. RESULTS Thiopental sodium 30 mg?kg -1 ip significantly inhibited NOS activity of cortex, brain stem and synaptic membrane as compared with that of normal saline group( P
