Neck lumbar traction bed is through the computer control motor and hydraulic transmission device, implementation of traditional Chinese medicine traction, Angle rotation and manual reduction action of a device, etc. Saving time and effort can well meet the needs of the treatment on lumbar disease. Based on the failure phenomenon of traction bed hydraulic transmission device, the composition and working principle analysis of the hydraulic system, concluded that failure of the hydraulic transmission device is due to the pressure gauge damaged or blocked between the tubing and the overflow valve, which allows users to quickly troubleshoot.

Moyamoya disease is an uncommon chronic progressive occlusive cerebrovascular disease.It is mainly involved in the terminal internal carotid artery and the proximal portions of the anterior cerebral and middle cerebral arteries.Normally,there are differences between the conventional angiographic findings and the clinical manifestations and outcomes in moyamoya disease,while the perfusion imaging can provide important hemodynamic information.Currently,CT perfusion imaging and magnetic resonance perfusion imaging have been widely used in clinical practice.This article reviews the application of the two imaging techniques in moyamoya disease.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the pressure changing characteristics of upper esophageal sphincter (UES), lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and the esophagus kinetic characteristics of pharyngeal paraesthesia patients. METHOD: To take high resolution manometry in 44 cases of pharyngeal paraesthesia patients and 23 normal subjects separately. According to the RSI score,the 44 patients were divided into group A (the group without reflux, RSI < 13, n = 25) and group B (the group with reflux, RSI ≥ 13, n = 19). RESULT: The UES average resting pressure and average residual pressure of patients group were higher than the control group (P < 0.05); The UES average resting pressure and average residual pressure of group B were higher than group A (P < 0.05); The LES average resting pressure and average residual pressure of group B were lower than group A and the control group (P < 0.05); The comparison of LES average resting pressure and average residual pressure between group A and the control group was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). The esophagus DCI of group B was lower than that of group A and control group (P < 0.05). The esophagus DCI comparison between group A and control group was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The pharyngeal paresthesia symptoms of'patients was associated with the increasing of UES pressure. The pharyngeal paresthesia symptoms of group with reflux was related to low pressure of LES and high pressure of UES. The last part of esophagus of group with reflux had obstacles in powers, which weaken the peristalsis and declined the ability to clear the bolus and gastric reflux material.

Objective To investigate the effects of compound danshen dripping pill (CDDP) on carotid intima￣media thickness (CIMT) and cardiac function in patients newly diagnosed as hypothyroidism. Methods The total of 40 subclinical hypothyroidism patients and 40 hypothyroidism cases was enrolled.The clinical hypothyroidism patients were treated with L￣T4 as the conventional treatment, and comprehensive CDDP plus levothyroxine (L￣T4 ) as treated groups (CDDP group) for 6 months. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by combining with data of thyroid function, blood lipid profile and ultrasound.The 40 healthy subjects were chosen as normal control group. Results Compared with normal control group, the levels of TC and LDL￣C were higher (P<0.05) in subclinical hypothyroidism group, which were more obvious in the clinical hypothyroidism group (P<0.01), CIMT increased markedly (P<0.05), the left ventricular systolic functions (ejection fraction) and diastolic functions (mitral flow velocity E and A wave ratio) were markedly decreased (P<0.05) in the clinical hypothyroidism group.Upon treatment, the blood￣lipids were improved (P<0.05), CIMT were reduced (P<0.05), the left ventricular functions were restored to near normal with the attainment of euthyroidism in both groups of clinical hypothyroidism;the reduction of CIMT and the improvement of the left ventricular functions were faster in CDDP group than that in the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). Conclusion Disturbance of blood lipid in hypothyroidism patients, CIMT growth and impaired left ventricular function objectively indicate the existence of cardiac and cerebral vascular risk, while CDDP helps improving lipid metabolism, reversing CIMT and cardiac function, reducing cardiovascular risk, blocking or delaying cardiovascular event chains.

[Objective]To explore the professor Yu Tugen’s experience, in order to provide reference for clinical medication and the study of atopic der-matitis. [Methods] Treatment based on syndrome differentiation.
