Objective:To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture combined with copper-tube moxibustion on peripheral facial paralysis. Methods:A total of 39 recurrent Bell’s palsy patients were treated with acupuncture plus self-made copper-tube moxibustion, once a day. Ten days made up a course of treatment. The patients were treated for 4 courses of treatment. There was a 3-day interval between two courses. The therapeutic efficacies were statistically analyzed after 4 courses of treatment. Results:Of the 39 cases, 18 cases obtained recovery, 15 cases got improvement and 6 cases failed. The total effective rate was 84.6%. Conclusion:Acupuncture combined with copper-tube moxibustion is effective for recurrent peripheral facial paralysis.

Objective To study the effect of early rehabilitation on motor function of hemiplegic patients after cerebral infarction. Methods Forty two patients were divided into two groups randomly: a rehabilitation group and a control group. Both groups were given the same internal medical treatment to stabilize the patients conditions in the early stage. In addition, the patients in the rehabilitation group were given early formal rehabilitation training, while those in the control group were given no formal rehabilitation training. The results of therapy were assessed by using SIAS method (Stroke Impairment Assessment Set). Results As shown by the SIAS result, the scores of motor function, muscle tone, range of motion (ROM), pain, trunk control and function on the unaffected side in the rehabilitation group were significantly better than those in the control group (all P

Objective To optimize the formulation of controlled-onset extended-release tablets of nicorandilby central composite design-response surface method. Methods The tablets containing nicorandil were prepared bydry-compression coating technique.The influence factors included the amount of HPMC, the amount of EC, and the ratio of lactose/MCC in coating film. The evaluation parameter was Q4 h and Q5 h . The possibly optimal formulation was predicted by response surface method. Results The OD was simulated using second-order polynomial equation and the r2was 0.970 1.Optimal prescription was as follows:HPMC 89.96 mg, EC 46.21 mg, Lactose/MCC 1.87.Bias between the observed and predicted values of the OD was within 0.43%. Conclusion The controlled-onset extended-release tablets of nicorandil can release drug quickly in vitro at the predetermined time.Central composite design-response surface method can be used to optimize the formulation and the model developed in this study was proved highly predictable.

Objective To explore the absorption properties and kinetics of nicorandil from small intestinal segments. Methods The absorption kinetics and permeability of nicorandil under different conditions were investigated by HPLC via the in situ perfusing method in rats. Results There was no significant difference in Ka of nicorandil under different concentrations and different pH.The absorption rate in rats descended in order of jejunum,duodenum,ileum and colon, as (4.69±0.05)×10-2 ,(3.35 ±0.04) × 10-2 ,(2.66± 0.05) × 10-2 and (0.89± 0.08) × 10-2 .h-1 . Conclusion The absorption of nicorandil in intestine complies with the passive transport mechanism and first order kinetics.Nicorandil is well absorbed in the whole intestine and can be prepared as delayed release and controlled release forms.

Objective To confirm the efficacy of the “Hourglass Pattern”of ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB). Methods Approved by the medical ethics committee,we selected 30 patients undergoing selective total hip arthroplasty (THA ) in our hospital between January and May 2014.Before neuraxial anesthesia,ultrasound-guided FICB was performed.After identification of the “Hourglass Pattern”(internal oblique muscle and the sartorius muscle),a catheter was inserted. The sheath between the fascia iliaca and the iliacus muscle was distended with 40 ml of 0.2% ropivacaine,and then a continuous infusion of ropivacaine at a rate of 10 ml /h was administered for 48 h.Loss of sensation in the distribution areas of the femoral nerve and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve within 30 min was recorded.Patients were interviewed at 4 h,8 h,12 h,24 h,36 h and 48 h after block for pain intensity.Patients’ satisfaction scores at 48 h after block and the occurrence of adverse events (infection,local anesthetic toxicity,hemorrhage and hematoma)was recorded. Results The successful rate of the block was 100% without any adverse events.The median of numerical rating pain scale (NRPS)was below 4 points at 4 h,8 h,12 h,24 h,36 h and 48 h after block,and the patients’satisfaction score was (8.0 ±0.9 )points at 48 h after block.No adverse events occurred. Conclusions Ultrasound-guided FICB by using the “Hourglass Pattern”technique can offer effective analgesia after THA.It’s a safe method and can be easily performed.

Objective To analyze the differential expression of protein in taxol-resistance from elderly females with ovarian cancer, by compared proteomics analysis and identified the candidated marker in the clinical tissues. Methods Soluble fraction proteins in two SKOV3 taxol-resistant cells, SK-TR30 and SK-TR2500 and one A2780 taxol-resistant cell, A2780-TR paired taxol-sensitive ovarian cancer cells were separated and prepared by two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). The differentially expressed proteins were selected and identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/lonization time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS) and database search. 2-DE profiles with high resolution and reproducibility were obtained. Then highly expressed protein-cofilin1 which exist in two forms of de-phosphorylate was detected and compared between human ovarian cancer specimens including 22 elderly female with chemosensitive and 21 elderly female with chemoresistant by immunohistochemistry. Results Among the identified proteins, there were sixteen over/under-expressed proteins in taxol-resistant cell lines as compared with taxol-sensitive cell lines. In particular, overexpression of cofilin1 and destrin were displayed in all three taxol-resistant cell lines. The expression of phosphorylation of cofilin (P＜0.05), but not cofilin1, displayed much higher in chemoresistant than in chemosensitive group. Conclusions Cofilin1 may play a role of taxol resistance by phosphorylation of ovarian cancer cell. However, the mechanisms need to be elucidated further.
