Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of abdominal acupuncture in treating cervicogenic headache. Method Sixty-three patients meeting the diagnostic criteria of cervicogenic headache were allocated using a random number table: 33 cases to the abdominal acupuncture group and 30 cases to the acupuncture groups. The abdominal acupuncture group of patients received abdominal acupuncture and the acupuncture group of patients, body acupuncture. The therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups of patients after three courses of treatment. The headache index score was recorded at the same time. Result The total efficacy rate was 84.8% in the abdominal acupuncture group and 63.3% in the acupuncture group; there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The pain index score decreased significantly in both groups after treatment (P<0.05) and decreased more in the abdominal acupuncture group than in the acupuncture group (P<0.05). Conclusion Abdominal acupuncture is more effective than conventional acupuncture in treating cervicogenic headache. It is a new effective way to clinically treat cervicogenic headache.

As an important modality in the treatment of central nervous system malignancies of pediatric patients, radiotherapy could improve both local control and long-term survival.However, both short-term and long-term adverse effects are of concerns.In the current review, the role of radiotherapy in the pediatric setting were introduced.

Objective To study the image quality control system to ensure that equipment meet clinical needs.Methods It was scanning the Catphan504 phantom with models of high quality head,standard dose head and pelvis,we could get the results of CT numbers linearity,uniformity,spatial resolution,contrast resolution.Using T test to compare different scanning technique results.Results The standard dose head scanning technique was better than the pelvis scanning technique in CT numbers linearity test,and gets the best result in uniformity test.The result of CT numbers uniformity was higher in the standard dose head scanning than the high quality head and the pelvis scanning (9.7 ±3.9 vs.17.9 ±5.3,P =0.00 and 9.5 ± 4.0 vs.31.1 ± 5.7,P =0.00).The result of contrast resolution was higher in the pelvis scanning than the high quality head and the pelvis scanning (5.6 ± 0.1 vs.1.3 ± 0.5,P =0.00 and 6.0 ± 1.0 vs.1.3 ± 0.5,P =0.00).The result of spatial linear distance was very accurate,the range was 4.98 -5.06 cm.Conclusions The results of spatial linearity test are stable and accuracy,but CT numbers linearity and uniformity test are affected by the scanning technique significantly for device.To spatial resolution test and contrast resolution test,we need to set the standard and tolerance according to each linear accelerator specialty.

Objective Explore the risk factors and prevention of HAP after surgical excision of Esophageal carcinoma in elderly Patients.Methods Two hundred and eight elderly patients with HAP after Surgical excision of Esophageal carcinoma from 2009 to 2012 were analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to find the related risk factors.Results The incidence of HAP was 25.9％.In several factors Logistic regression analysis,smoking,low lung function,postoperative non-epidural analgesia,injure of recurrent laryngeal nerve and fistula of anastomotic were the risk factors.Conclusions The preoperative evaluation,Intensive monitoring during the postoperative period and reducing the complication after operation can decrease the incidence of HAP.

BACKGROUND:Pathogenesis of osteoarthritis is poorly understood,however,studies have demonstrated that vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)Is involved in the progression of osteoarthritis.OBJECTIVE:To detect the changes of VEGF mRNA expression of synovium in rabbit osteoarthritis and to evaluate the effect of sodium hyaluronate on its expression.METHODS:Twenty four white rabbits were divided into the normal control,physiologic saline,and sodium hyaluronate groups.The unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection(ACLT)was performed in the physiologic saline and sodium hyaluronate groups.At weeks 4 after operation,rabbits in the physiologic saline group were injected 0.3 mL physiologic saline and in the sodium hyaluronate group received 10 g/L sodium hyaluronate injection,once per week for 5 successive weeks.All the animals were sacrificed at week 10 after operation.The cartilage changes on the medial femoral condyles were graded separately VEGF express Jon of synovium was detected by using teal time polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The macroscopic score showed that the cartilage degeneration in the physiologic sailne group was significantly more severe than that of the normal control and sodium hyaluronate groups(P＜0 05)The expression of VEGF mRNA was obviously decreased in the physiologic saline group than that of the normal control group(P＜0 05).of which was increased in thesodium hyaluronate group,but still smaller than the normal control group(P＜0 05).The results demonstrated that the decreased VEGF expression in synovium may involved in the progression of osteoarthritis,and sodium hyaluronate has protective effect on articular cartilage by up-regulating the VEGF expression.

Objective To observe the effect of liver-soothing and spleen-strengthening,essence-tonifying and eyesight-improving herbal medicine for ametropic amblyopia(AA) in children.Methods AA children were randomized into 2 groups.The two groups received treatment of optometry and sight-enhancing device based on microcomputer.Meanwhile,group A(52 affected eyes in 29 patients) received oral use of Ximing Decoction with liver-soothing and spleen-strengthening,essence-tonifying and eyesight-improving actions,which is mainly composed of Radix Curcumae,Radix Pseudostellariae,Radix Panacis Quinquefolii,Fructus Aurantii Immaturus,Herba Agastaches,Flos Buddlejae,Nux Prinsepiae,Fructus Setariae Germinatus,Radix Ophiopogonis,Fructus Crataegi and Massa Medicata Fermentata.Group B(46 affected eyes in 28 patients) received oral use of levodopa additionally.Seven days constituted one treatment course.The treatment lasted 8 courses.Before and after treatment,corrected visual acuity(CVA) was observed.Results In group A,CVA of 13 eyes were improved,AA of 33 eyes cured,6 eyes ineffective,and the total effective rate was 88.46%.In group B,CVA of 10 eyes were improved,AA of 12 eyes cured,24 eyes ineffective,and the total effective rate was 47.83%.The effect in group A was superior to that in group B(P

Objective:To compare the efficacy of citalopram alone and citalopram combined with psychotherapy in patients with postpartum depression. Methods:Fifty-eight women who met CCMD-3 criteria for postpartum depression were randomly assigned to 2 groups. Group A was treated with citalopram 20mg daily alone, group B with citalopram 20mg daily combined with psychotherapy, both for six weeks. Hamilton rating scale (HAMD) was evaluated at baseline and after 1, 2, 4 and 6 weeks of treatment. Results:HAMD scores were decreased with statistical significance since week 1 in group A and since week 2 in group B. At different time points the HAMD scores in group A were lower than those in group B with statistically significant difference. Conclusion: Citalopram combined with psychotherapy was more effective than citalopram alone in the treatment of postpartum depression.

To investigate the mechanism of detrusor instability, using an apparatus to measure energy regulated tonicity and length of muscle strip in vitro , detrusor instability in bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and spinal cord injuries (SCI) after pharmacological intervention was studied. The detrusor of both groups contracted under definite tension. Contraction of DI strips occurred under lower tension and under same tension the frequency of contraction was higher in DI detrusor than the normal one. There were no obvious changes when the detrusor strips were treated with M receptor antagonists, ATP or VIP. Muscarinic receptor agonist could increase the excitability of detrusor. The increase of detrusor excitability plays a major role in the occurrence of DI. The excitability is independent on neurogenic factors.
