Forty cases of bronchial asthma were treated by comprehensive methods of acupuncture, ear-embedding and acupoint-injecting. Thirty-six cases were treated by single body acupuncture and 38 cases were treated by herbal medicine for comparison. The therapeutic effects were analyzed among the three groups. The total effective rate was 95.0% in the comprehensive group, 80.6% in the single acupuncture group and 73.7% in the herbal medicine group, with a significant difference (P<0.05) among the three groups. The combined use of acupuncture, ear-embedding method and acupoint-injecting method were better than single acupuncture and herbal medicine in the treatment of asthma.
2. A preliminary study of the relationship between the uterine junctional zone and outcome of intrauterine adhesions
Medical Journal of Chinese People's Liberation Army 2016;41(4):301-306
Objective To investigate the influence of degree of the injury in uterine junctional zone (JZ) of intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) patients on postoperative pregnancy outcomes by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods Design: Retrospective observational study. Setting: Navy General Hospital of PLA, Beijing. The study included ninety-two patients undergoing preoperative pelvic MRI from June 2011 to June 2014, and they were diagnosed as IUA by hysteroscopy, and hysteroscopic adhesiolysis was conducted under the guidance of abdominal ultrasound. All patients had tried to be pregnant for longer than six months. According to whether uterine junctional zone (JZ) was injured or not, the patients were divided into two groups: group A (JZ was normal) and group B (JZ was partly or completely injured). All patients were followed up with telephone comunication regarding postoperative pregnancy outcome within two weeks in August 2015. The difference of severity of IUAs and pregnancy outcome was compared. Results There were 51 and 41 IUAs cases in Group A and Group B, respectively. According to European Society of Gynecological Endoscopy (ESGE) classification of IUAs, the number of mild, moderate and severe IUA cases were 20, 24 and 7, respectively, in group A; and 10, 12 and 19, respectively, in group B. The proportion of severe IUA cases was significantly higher in group B than in group A (P=0.001). Forty-six of 92 IUAs cases had been pregnant, the pregnancy rate was 50%. Among them 4 had conceived twice. Twenty-one IUAs had given live birth (one had given birth to a pair of twins), and 10 were in pregnancy. The live-birth delivery rate was 42%, and the pregnancy loss rate was 38%. Thirty-one and fifteen IUAs had been pregnant in group A and group B respectively, the pregnancy rate was higher in group A than in group B (60.8% vs 36.6%, P=0.021). The live-birth delivery rate was higher in group A than in group B (47.1% vs 31.3%, P=0.365), while the pregnancy loss rate was higher in group B than in group A (29.4% vs 56.3%, P=0.117), but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions The severity of IUAs was associated with the degree of injury of uterine JZ. Especially, when JZ was completely injured, it was meant to have severe IUAs. For IUAs, injured uterine JZ may significantly decrease the postoperative pregnancy rate and live-birth delivery rate, and increase in the pregnancy loss rate. Evaluation of JZ may offer new perspectives to estimate the severity of IUA and the outlook of pregnancy. So it is recommended to evaluate the degree of injury of uterine JZ as an independent predictor for postoperative pregnancy outcome of IUAs. For severe IUAs, once JZ was extensively or completely injured, the outcome of pregnancy may be very poor.

Objective:In this experiment we used pain-related neurons of Hb unit discharges recording asa standard to observe the effects of prostaglandin E2 (i. p. ) on Hb unit discharges. Methods :The methodsof unit discharges recording and radiant heat induced tail flick responce were used. Results :The dischargesof pain-excited neurons increased after the addition of PGE2 (i. p. ). The discharges of pain-inhibited neu-rons dec reased after the addition of PGE2(i. p. );PGE2(i. p. ) caused the pain threshold to drop after sym-pathetic nerves were destroyed by 6-OHDA. There were no changes of the pain threshold in undestroyedgroup (P>0.05). The percentage changes of Hb neurons dropped compared with that of undestroyedgroup (P<0. 05). Conclusion: The PGE2 could change the discharges of pain-related neurons in Hb, inwhich the sympathetic system might participate in the process.

Objective To analyze the aetiological characteristics and bacterial susceptibility in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) after mechanical ventilation. Methods To review the clinical characteristics, aetiological flora and bacterial susceptibility in 28 patients complicated with VAP in the ICU in recent years. Results The incidence rate of VAP was 66.7%. 91 clinical bacteria and 10 mycete isolates were collected, 64 (80.3%) were Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) and 27(29.7%) Gram- positive bacteria (GPC). The dominant bacteria was Xanthomonas maltophilia in COPD complicated VAP. Conclusion The main kind of bacteria in COPD complicated VAP after mechanical ventilation was GNB, and all kinds of the bacteria showed high tolerance. More attention should be paid to the cultivate aetiological bacteria and bacterial susceptibility and select the most suitable antibiotics in the treatment of VAP.

Objective To review the treatment of repair gastroschisis with autogenous umbilical cord and evaluate its effect. Methods Thirty newborns who underwent the repair gastroschisis with autogenous umbilical cord between August 1992 to October 2007, 26 cases survived under observed and followed-up, observing physical growth, intelligence measuring and whether the area of operated in abdomen need staged repair or not. Compared with 15 cases who underwent traditional operation method at the same time. Results Two cases died, 2 cases abandoned, and 26 ease received survive (survive rate 86.7%)and their growth was well in 26 cases. But in those 15 cases who underwent traditional operation method, 5 cases survived (survive rate 33.3%). There were significant difference in the survive rate, the mean operative time and postoperative hospital stay time between the two operation methods (P <0.05).Conclusion The material is adopted easily in the operation, autogenous umbilical cord is elastic tissue and no toxicity, it can relax the abdominal press effectively after the operation, the survive rate is high.

OBJECTIVETo explore the expression of polymorphonuclear leucocyte adhesive molecules CD11b/CD18 and to study the possible mechanism of Chinese herbal medicine (TCM) for activating blood circulation to remove stasis in preventing vascular diseases.
METHODSForty-nine patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) but with no complications of hypertension and nephropathy were randomly divided into the treated group (26 patients treated by TCM) and the control group (23 patients treated by conventional treatment). They were treated for 3 months. The changes of urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), CD11b/CD18 expression and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) concentration before and after treatment were observed.
RESULTSThe CD11b/CD18 expression and TNF-alpha concentration in DM patients were higher than those of normal range (P < 0.01). After treatment, the UAER, CD11b/CD18 expression and TNF-alpha concentration lowered significantly in the treated group (P < 0.01), but unchanged in the control group. Correlation analysis showed that the lowering of UAER was positively correlated with decreasing of CD11b/CD18 (r = 0.64, P < 0.01) and TNF-alpha (r = 0.56, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONExpression of CD11b/CD18 increases in patients with DM type 2. The mechanism of Chinese herbal medicine for activating blood circulation to remove stasis in preventing vascular disease in possibly related with its effect in inhibiting CD11b/CD18 expression.
