Objective To explore achillis tendon-sliding procedure and subtalar joint capsula release by the same cut and individualization treatment used in the correction of congenital clubfoot.Methods Forty eight cases (76 feet) of congenital clubfoot who were first visit were treated by achillis tendon-sliding procedure and subtalar joint capsula release by the same cut,meantime,footplate fascia release and transfer of the anterior tibial tenden were made by individualization.Results All cases were followed-up,the average time follow-up was 1 year and 6 months,excellent were 71% and good were 15.7%.Five cases were recurrence and its rate was 6.94%.Conclusions Achillis tendon-sliding procedure and subtalar joint capsula release by the same cut can solve rotation of displacement between calcaneus and talus and individualization treatment can also solve high arch deformity and adduction of foot.This technique is a simple,safe and effective treatment for congenital clubfoot.

Objective In order to probe other possible mechanisms of aerobic tra ining in anti-atherosclerosis besides lipid-regulation, we observed the influenc e of aerobic training on the formation of atherosclerotic plaque, the concentrat ion of nitric oxide(NO) in serum, the content of inducible nitric oxidase (iN OS) and endothelial nitric oxidase (eNOS) in thoracic aorta in ApoE-deficient mi ce. Methods The atherosclerotic lesions, the serum NO, the con tent of thoracic aortic iNOS and eNOS by ABC immunohistochemical staining combin ed with computer image quantitative analysis technique on frozen sections were m easured after 10-week swimming training. Thoracic aorta Oil Red O (ORO) staining on the intima were als o analyzed. Results Compared with controls, aerobic training d elayed the plaque formation i n ApoE-deficient mice (P

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are traditional dairy strains which have a long history of safe use. They are a kind of food-grade microorganisms that can be used in industry to produce lots of food and drink, such as yoghourt. In the last two decades the physiology and genetics of these bacteria have been thoroughly studied. Because of their genetic accessibility and easy to handle, LAB, in addition to their traditional applications, have been extensively developed and used for the expression of heterologous genes. So they have an important foreground in agricultural, medical and many other fields. People have developed a series of food-grade gene expression systems of LAB. LAB, especially their model strain Lactococcus lactis and their most useful food-grade induced expression system--nisin controlled gene expression system NICE and its food-grade inducer nisin, food-grade host, expressing vectors and applications in expressing heterologous proteins of NICE will be introduced.

Objective To compare the effects of different spleen-strengthening recipes on water-electrolyte metabolism and water transport in rat model of spleen-deficiency syndrome. Methods The male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into the normal group and spleen-deficiency model group. The rat model of spleen-deficiency was established by overstrain plus disordered diet method. On the 15th modeling day, the model rats were randomly assigned into model group , Buzhong Yiqi Tang(BYT) group, Si Junzi Tang(SJT) group, Shenling Baizhu San(SBS) group, and the rats except for the model group were treated with gastric gavage of the corresponding medicine in the dosage of 4.05 g·kg-1·d-1. Rats of normal group and model group were given equal volume of normal saline. The medication lasted for 14 days. On the 29th experimental day, we detected serum Na+ and K+, plasma antidiuretic hormone(ADH) and aldosterone(ALD), aquaporin 3(AQP3) in the small intestine and colon, and renal AQP2. Results Compared with the normal group, plasma ADH and ALD levels, serum Na+ level, renal AQP2 content in the model rats were increased significantly, serum K+ and AQP3 content of small intestine and colon mucosa was decreased significantly(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, plasma ADH and ALD levels, serum Na+ level, renal AQP2 content in the three medication groups were decreased significantly, serum K+level and AQP3 in the small intestine and descending colon mucosa was increased significantly(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Of the three medication groups, SBS group had lower ADH, ALD, Na+levels, and higher serum K+level and AQP3 in the small intestine and descending colon mucosa than BYT group and SJT group(P<0.01); SBS group and BYT group had lower renal AQP2 than SJT group(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion Rat model with spleen-deficiency syndrome has disordered water-electrolyte metabolism and abnormal water transport. The spleen-strengthening recipes, which have the actions of strengthening spleen, strengthening spleen to drain dampness, strengthening spleen to elevate yang, can improve the disorder of water metabolism to some degrees, and SBS has the best effect.

According to the existing Provisions for Drug Registration (SFDA Order No. 28), applications for new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine are divided into two parts: the applications for drug clinical trial and for drug production (including new drug certificate). It will last for about 10 years from the application for drug clinical trial to get approving, and it also remains many problems and the low probability to succeed. From the sight of pharmaceutical review, there are mainly two aspects of regulatory compliance and technical issues, mainly for changes without approval of the competent authorities of the country. For example, sample preparation and approval of clinical trial process are significant changes. Technical problems are reporting incomplete data or information submitted does not comply with the technical requirements for review, such as: production process validation does not provide information, the preparation of samples for clinical trials and field inspection, production information, or the information provided does not meet the technical requirements. This paper summarizes the frequently asked questions and to make recommendations to advise applicants concerned, timely detection of problems, avoid risk, improving the quality and efficiency of the application for registration.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 64-slice spiral CT,MRI + magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) on suspected biliary obstruction.Methods Eighty-five patients with suspected biliary obstruction were examined by 64-slice spiral CT,MRI + MRCP,compared with the pathological results.The accuracy rate of CT,MRI + MRCP,CT + MRI + MRCP in evaluating the sites and nature of obstruction were calculated.Results The accuracy rate of evaluating the site of obstruction in CT was 96.5％ (82/85),MRI + MRCP was 97.6％ (83/85),difference was not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).The accuracy rate of evaluating the nature of obstruction in CT was 81.2％ (69/85),MRI + MRCP was 87.1％ (74/85),CT +MRI + MRCP was 94.1％ (80/85),there was no statistically significant difference between MRI + MRCP and CT with CT + MRI + MRCP (P ＞ 0.05),difference was statistically significant between CT and CT + MRI + MRCP (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion A comprehensive analysis of CT,MRI + MRCP can increase the accuracy of diagnosis biliary obstruction.

Objective To explore the integrity of white matter changes in patients with vascular mild cognitive impairment (VaMCI)based Leukoaraiosis.Methods The patients which appeared white matter hyperintensities in subcortical were performed psychological testing,then 48 VaMCI patients and 18 without cognitive impairment volunteers(NC)were choosed and performed DTI scanning,to determine the white matter’s values of FA and ADC in the following bilaterally symmetrical regions of interest(ROI):entorhinal cortex lobe,hippocampal vault,anterior of corpus callosum,posterior of corpus callosum,inferior frontal lobe,superior temporal lobe and angular gyrus of occipital lobe. Then the differences of the data of DTI between two groups and the relevance between neuropsychological score and DTI’s data were analysed.Results ADC values were significantly higher of VaMCI group in the left inferior frontal lobe,left anterior of corpus callo-sum,left hippocampus vault and right angular gyrus compared with NC group(P <0.05),and in the left hippocampus ADC values and MoCA scores was negatively correlated(r=-0.34,P =0.02).There was no significant difference of FA values between groups. Conclusion The ADC values in many cognitive related areas was reduced in VaMCI patients.
