ObjectiveTo compare the therapeutic efficacies and adverse reactions of micro-invasive thread embedding with two types of materials in treating chronic facial paralysis.MethodTotally 186 patients with chronic facial paralysis were randomized into a catgut group and a PDS group, 93 cases in each group. For the two groups, Cuanzhu (BL2), Yuyao (EX-HN4), Taiyang (EX-HN5), Dicang (ST4), Jiache (ST6), Quanliao (SI18), Yingxiang (LI20), Qianzheng (Extra), Xiaguan (ST7), Fengchi(GB20), and bilateral Hegu (LI4) and Zusanli (ST36) were selected. The thread embedding treatment was given once every 10 d, 3 timesas a treatment course, successively for 2 courses. The therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions were analyzed after 2 treatment courses. ResultThe Sunnybrook Facial Grading System scores were significantly increased after intervention in the two groups (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in comparing the therapeutic efficacy between the two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in comparing the adverse reactions including tenderness, nodules, and swelling right after thread embedding between the two types of materials (P>0.05); 10 d after thread embedding, the adverse reactions happened inthe catgut group were significantly more than that in the PDS group (P<0.05); 30 d after thread embedding treatment, the tenderness occurred more frequently in the catgut group compared to that in the PDS group; although the occurred frequency of nodules and swelling was comparatively low, the total frequency in the catgut group was significantly higher than that in the PDS group (P<0.01). There were no significant differences in comparing the adverse reactions between the two groups 60 d after treatment (P>0.05).Conclusion Acupoint thread embedding with PDS can help recover facial nerve function in chronic facial paralysis; as a thread embedding material, PDS thread produces a lower occurrence rate of adverse reactions, and thus it’s a kind excellent thread embedding material.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical therapeutic effects on intractable facial paralysis among acupuncture, acupoint catgut embedding and PDS embedding.
METHODSTwo hundred and seventy-nine patients of intractable facial paralysis were randomized into an acupuncture group, a catgut embedding group and a PDS embedding group, 93 cases in each one. Cuanzhu (BL 2), Yuyao (EX-HN 4), Taiyang (EX-HN 5), Xuanlu (GB 5), Dicang (ST 4), Jiache (ST 6), Quanliao (SI 18), Qianzheng (Extra), Xiaguan (ST 7) and Fengchi (GB 20) on the affected side and bilateral Hegu (LI 4) and Zusanli (ST 36) were selected in the three groups. In the acupuncture group, acupuncture was applied to those acupoints, once every two days; 10 treatments made one session; the successive three sessions were required. In the catgut embedding group and the PDS embedding group, catgut and PDS were embedded separately, once every 10 days; 3 treatments made one session and the successive two sessions were required. The therapeutic cycle was 2 months in the three groups. The therapeutic results were analyzed statistically 2 months later. The scores of Sunnybrook facial nerve grading system and the facial nerve electroneurography (ENoG) were used for the efficacy assessment before and after treatment in the three groups.
RESULTSAfter treatment, the score of Sunnybrook facial nerve grading system was improved apparently after treatment as compared with that before treatment in any of the three groups (all P < 0.05). The score in either of the embedding groups was better than that in the acupuncture group (both P < 0.05). The difference was not significant between the catgut embedding group and the PDS embedding group (P > 0.05). After treatment, ENoG wave ampli tude values in the frontal muscle and orbicularisoris muscle on the affected side were improved as compared with those before treatment in the three groups (all P < 0.05). Those in the catgut embedding group and the PDS embedding group were better than those in the acupuncture group (all P < 0.05), and had no significant difference as compared with those on the healthy side (P > 0.05). In the acupuncture group, ENoG wave amplitudes on the affected side were lower than those on the healthy side (both P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONAcupuncture, catgut embedding and PDS embedding at acupoints all achieve the therapeutic effects on intractable facial paralysis. However, the acupoint embedding therapy presents more advantages on the recovery of facial nerve function. The efficacy is similar between the catgut embedding and the PDS embedding.

Objective To observe the expression of P21 and CDK6 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma,and to investigate the relationship between their expression and cervical squamous cell carcinoma.Methods The expression of CDK6 and P21 in 100 cases of cervical squamous cell carcinoma,20 cases of cervical CIN lesions and 20 cases of normal cervical tissues were detected by immunohistochemical ABC method,and the relationship between them and tumor differentiation,invasion depth,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage were analyzed.Results The expression rates of P21 and CDK6 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in CIN lesions and normal cervical tissues;The low expression of P21 was associated with the depth of tumor invasion,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage (P<0.05),and was not associated with the degree of tumor differentiation (P>0.05);The high expression of CDK6 was associated with tumor differentiation,invasion depth,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage (P<0.05).Conclusion The abnormal expression of P21 and CDK6 may play an important role in the occurrence and development of cervical squamous cell carcinoma,and the two may have a certain significance in the prognosis of cervical squamous cell carcinoma.
8.Research advances on role of microRNAs in congenital heart diseases.
Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics 2014;16(10):1070-1074
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs, which mainly regulate gene expression through post-transcriptional process. They are highly conserved, tissue-specific and highly specific in miRNA-binding on 3'-untranslated regions. MicroRNAs have been identified as crucial regulators in myocardial cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis, migration of cardiac neural crest cells, cardiac morphogenesis and cardiac patterning processes, which may provide a new insight into the research on developmental mechanism of congenital heart diseases. The research on miRNAs in congenital heart diseases includes clinical research and animal experiments. This article reviews two types of research advances, the mechanism of congenital heart diseases, and the current status and limitation of the domestic reports.
