Textbook construction is an important part of building TCM English teaching system and its key research point is summarizing and exploring the basic principles and laws for guiding the compilation practice. This article tried to apply the theory of English for Specific Purpose and combine the compilation practice of English for TCM to explore the particular principles for compiling TCM English textbook.

Interspinous process device is a kind of non-fusion implant for posterior spinal surgery.It is classified by static system and dynamic system according to its characteristics.With rapid development of internal fixator manufacture,materials for interspinous process device become increasing,such as bone allograft,titanium,poly(ether-ether-ketone) and lactoprene composite.A large number of experimental and clinical researches reveal the advantages of this technology in degenerative spinal stenosis,intervertebral original lower back pain,facet syndrome,protrusion of intervertebral disk,and lumbar instability.However,there are still many problems such as the influence on the lumbar posterior column,the mechanism to lumbar disc and the effect on the stability of spine etc.In addition,the clinical indications need to validate by long-term follow up.

There are a wide variety of gastrointestinal microbiota, and the total number of bacteria reached 100 trillion. The flora interacts with the human body, and has a great impact on human health. In recent years, the relationship between intestinal flora and human diseases has become a hot research at home and abroad. Many studies have shown that intestinal microbiome plays an important role in modulating risk of multiple systemic diseases, including digestive system diseases, metabolic diseases, neuropsychiatric diseases, immune-related diseases and tumors.In this paper, the relationship between intestinal flora and human diseases was reviewed and summarized. The research progress on the relationship between gastrointestinal microbiota and human diseases in recent five years was summarized, which provided new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases.

Inductive chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy have been a focus on the clinical research in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Cisplatin,as a kind of representative platinum drug,can improve the curative effect,but it also brings a lot of side effects to nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.The new kind of platinum drug-nedaplatin,can not only guarantee the curative effect but also reduce the side effects of chemotherapy.

Objective To determine whether the extent of airflow obstruction is associated with left ventricular function in mild-to-moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.Methods Left ventricle end diastolic volume ( LVEDV ),left ventricle end systolic volume ( LVESV ),left ventricle stroke volume( LVSV),left ventricle ejection fraction( LVEF),heart rate ( HR),cardiac output ( CO) and cardiac index (CI) were measured by ultrasonic cardiogram.Thirty-one patients with chronic bronchitis,42 mild-to-moderate COPD patients and 16 controls with normal lung function were recruited.The relations between the extent of airflow obstruction and the impairment of left ventricular function were analyzed.Results There were no significant differences of LVEDV,LVESV,LVSV,HR,CO or CI between the control and chronic bronchitis groups.LVEDV,LVESV,LVSV,CO and CI of chronic bronchitis group were significantly higher than those of mild-to-moderate COPD group while HR was lower.LVEDV,LVESV,LVSV,CO and CI had a positive correlation with forced expiratory volume in 1 second ( FEV1 ),forced vital capacity (FVC) and FEV1/FVC ratio.And HR had a negative correlation with FEV1 and FEV1/FVC.LVEF was positively correlated with FVC,but not with FEV1 and FEV1/FVC.LVEDV,LVESV,LVSV,HR,CO and CI were linearly related with FEV1.Conclusions Left ventricular function is maintained in chronic bronchitis patients. Left ventricular function,especially left ventricular end diastolic filling,deteriorates among the mild-to-moderate COPD patients.The extent of airflow obstruction may reflect the impairment of left ventricular function in COPD patients.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of anesthesia with propofol-remifentanil given by targetcontrolled infusion (TCI) for thymectomy in patients with myasthenia gravis ( MG). Methods Forty-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ MG patients aged 16-64 yr weighing 45-95 kg undergoing thymectomy were studied. Anesthesia was induced with TCI of propofol (target plasma concentration 4 μg/ml) and remifentanil (target effect-site concentration 4 ng/ml). Thracheal intubation was performed after topical anesthesia with 2% lidocaine 2-3 ml and then the patients were mechanically ventilated. Anesthesia was maintained with TCI of propofol ( target plasma concentration 3-5 μg/ml) and remifentail (target effect-site concentration 3-6 ng/ml). Sufentanil 0.15 μg/kg was injected intravenously for analgesia 30 min before operation. The success rate of intubationat at first attempt, body movement in response to skin incision, recovery time, extubation time, extubation condition at the end of operation and cardiovascular events were recorded. Results Thracheal intubation was performed successfully in all patients. The success rate of intubation at first attempt was 100%. No body movement occurred during skin incision in the patients.Recovery time was 1.0-3.2 min and extubation time 2.6-7.0 min. All patients were successfully extubated at the end of operation. Bradycardia developed in 3 patients and hypotension in 4 patients during induction, but they all returned to normal after symptomatic treatment. Bradycardia developed in 3 patients during operation, but returned to normal after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion Anesthesia with TCI of propofol and remifentanil can be used safely and effectively in MG patients undergoing thymectomy.

Objective To investigate the bladder responses to different rates of bladder infusion in healthy and spinal cord injured rats.Methods Fourteen adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were used and divided into two groups:healthy group (n =7) and spinal transection injury group (n =7).The intravesical pressures induced by continuous infusion of saline with different rates under general anesthesia were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results In healthy group the responses of bladder contraction were dependent upon the rate of bladder infusion,and contraction time became shorter while increasing the infusion rate (P ＜ 0.05),i.e.contraction time was (401.0±132.4),(215.7 ±95.9),(108.3 ±59.1) and (52.5 ±32.8)s,respectively,when the infusion rate was 0.05,0.1,0.2 and 0.5 mL/min.Compared with healthy group,spinal transection injury group had significantly shorter bladder contraction time (P ＜ 0.05),however the relationship between bladder contraction time and infusion rate was much weakened.Spinal transaction injury rats had significantly lower peak of bladder pressure (P ＜ 0.05) compared with healthy rats.There was no significant difference for contraction durations between the two groups.Conclusions The infusion rates influenced the contraction periods for both healthy and spinal cord injured rats.During bladder infusions with a same rate,the contraction time and the peak of bladder pressure were determined by bladder conditions,i.e.healthy or neurogenic with spinal cord injury.

Objective To investigate the correlation between urinary calculi and upper urinary tract infections.Methods Twenty-six patients underwent lithiasis in upper urinary tract accompanied with infectious symptoms were enrolled in this study (test group).Blood culture was obtained in peak temperature before lithotrity,urine sample was obtained for bacterial culture.Thirty patients with calculi in upper urinary react accompanied no infectious symptoms in the same period were enrolled in control group.Calculi were pestled for bacterial culture and analyzed the components after the calculi were removed.Results In test group,the positive of blood,urine,calculi culture were 4,23,18 patients.The prominent component of calculi was hexahydrate magnesium ammonium phosphate.Bacteria in 13 positive urine sample had the same property with the calculi samples which came from the same cases.In control group,the positive of urine,calculi culture were 4,4 patients.The prominent component of calculi were calcium oxalate calculi and uricite calculi.The morbidity of upper urinary tract infections in test group was significantly higher than that in control group [69.2％(18/26) vs.13.3％(4/30)] (P ＜ 0.05).The coincidence of urine culture and calculi culture in test group was significantly higher than that in control group [72.2％(13/18) vs.25.0％(1/4)](P＜0.05).Conclusions Infectious calculi can easily result in upper urinary tract infections.Hexahydrate magnesium ammonium phosphate can make the prominent component in infectious calculi.
