Objective To evaluate clinical therapeutic efficacy and safety of joint application of Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium and the Vinpocetine in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods 60 patients with acute cerebral infarction, admitted to Wuxi People's Hospital Attached to Nanjing Medical University from January 2013 to July 2015, were randomly divided into observation group(n=30) and control group(n=30).They were both treated by identical basis therapy, such as antiplatelet, dilute blood viscosity, neurotrophy therapy and symptomatic treatment.The patients in the observation group were treated by joint application of Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium and the Vinpocetine on the identical basis therapy.On the pretherapy and post-treatment day, the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Barthel Index(BI), neuron specific enolase(NSE), hemodynamic indexes and efficiency of clinical treatment in these patients were performed.Blood routine examinations, hepatorenal function and ECG were monitored.CT SCan was employed for ICH and drug relative hemorrhage and adverse drug reaction( ADR) were recorded in detail.Results After treatment, 2 groups of NIHSS, BI score, blood rheology index, NSE level compared with before treatment improved significantly, the difference was significant (P<0.05).NSE, hemorheology and total effective rate of the observation group were better than the control group(P<0.05).The clinical total effective rate was 93.3% in treatment group and 76.6% in control group (P<0.05).During therapy period, There was no adverse reaction in 2 groups.Conclusion Joint application of Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium and the Vinpocetine is safe and effective in treating patients with acute cerebral infarction, through improving the clinical neurological deficits, blood rheology indicators and activity of daily living.

Objective To review advance of gabapentin in treatment of refractory chronic cough, and to provide evidence for its clinical usage and further study.The original articles referring to gabapentin’ s effect on sensory neuropathy such as refractory chronic cough, which were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Medical Network, as well as PubMed over the last 15 years, were reviewed.The safety, efficacy and its mechanism of gabapentin were sorted, generalized and analyzed.Gabapentin appears to be effective and safe in the treatment of sensory neuropathic disorder such as refractory chronic cough, and its effective treatment results may come ture through improving central sensitization, which indicates the drug has new clinical application value.Relevant clinical trials investigating its efficacy and safety profile in the treatment of cough are limited and further research are needed.

Objective The purpose of this article was to investigate the internal tunnel position during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with single-bundle ACL. Methods MRI were performed in 10 knees form 10 volunteers at full extension and at 30°, 60°, 90°, and 120° flexion position. All the images obtained were exported into Mimics 10.01. Three-dimensional models were established with Mimics in a computer. All the mark points were confirmed on femur and tibia. The distance between the femoral mark point and tibial mark point was measured. The isometric point was determined as the change in the distance was shorter than 3mm during knee flexion-extension. Results Ten three-dimensional models were established successfully and the isometric points of A0-X, A15-X, A30-X, A45-X, B0-Y, B15-Y, B30-Y, B45-Y, C0-Z, C15-Z, C30-Z, C45-Z, and C60-Z were identified. Conclusion There was no absolute anatomical isometric point, whereas the physiological isometric point did exist. Therefore, determination of tibial point should be considered synthetically. B45-Y was recommended for tunnel position.

Objective To investigate the status of soil fertility of Good Agricultural Practices ( GAP) base for Spatholobus suberectus Dunn. (SSD) in Pingyuan county of Guangdong province, thus to provide reference for GAP research and the subsequent fertilization for SSD. Methods The deep layer and superficial layer of GAP soil were collected for the physiochemical detection and nutrient assay. Compared with the classification standard of the second national general soil investigation, single base soil fertility index was diagnosed and the comprehensive soil fertility was evaluated with modified Nemoro Index. Results The soil pH value and the contents of exchangeable calcium and magnesium were unbalanced, and the contents of macroelements of nitrogen and phosphonium, microelements, and organic matter were low. Therefore, the measures for improving the base soil fertility should be as follows: ( 1) soil amendments of bentonite, gypsum and slaked lime should be used to adjust the soil pH value; ( 2) each plant should be given 10 kg of slaked organic fertilizer as base fertilizer; ( 3) in the process of nurturing, some special micro-fertilizer solution should be used to treat the cut slips, and 5 kg of urea should be used for every 667 meter square of land; ( 4) besides compound fertilizer, every 667 meter square of land should be fertilized with 15 kg of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate for the supplement of nitrogen and phosphorus, and slaked lime and magnesium carbonate should be used for the supplement of soil moderate-quantity elements after transplantation. Conclusion The comprehensive fertility of Pingyuan GAP base for Spatholobus suberectus Dunn. is at low level, and should be improved in combination with GAP requirements.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of different Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) clinical strains on the proliferation and apoptosis of gastric epithelial cells, and to observe the effect of H.pylori on gastric mucosa by Mongolian gerbil model infected H.pylori. METHODS: H.pylori isolates harvested from pathologically documented gastric carcinoma (GC, n=10) or chronic gastritis specimens (CG, n=10) were co-cultured with GES-1 cells individually. MTT assay and flow cytometry were used to determine the proliferation and apoptosis of GES-1 cells induced by H.pylori isolates. Mongolian gerbils were infected by the most (A strain) and the least (B strain) significantly proliferated H.pylori strains. Results When co-cultured with the cell/bacteria concentration ratio 1:1 and 1:50 for 12 h and the cell/bacteria concentration ratio 1:50 for 24 h, H.pylori clinical strains isolated from patients with gastric cancer promoted the proliferation of GES-1 cells, and there was significant difference in the absorbance compared with the group of gastritis strains(P<0.05). The apoptosis rate of the GC and CG groups increased significantly (P<0.05) compared with the control group when co-cultured with the cell/bacteria concentration ratio 1:50 and 1:200, and there was no significant difference between the GC group and the CG group (P>0.05). The incidences of intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia in the A strain group were significantly higher than those in the B strain group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION H.pylori strains from different disease sources have different effects on the proliferation of GES-1 cells. H.pylori isolated from gastric cancer can promote the proliferation of cells to different degrees and directly induce gastric precancerosis and gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To construct the RNAi targeting tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor (TRAF1) gene, and to explore the effect of interference targeting TRAF1 on the biological behavior of gastric cancer cells. METHODS: We detected the expression of TRAF1 in BGC823, SGC7901, and MGC803 gastric cancer cell lines through the real-time PCR and Western blot; then we constructed three pLVXshRNA- TRAF1-shRNAs expression vector targeting TRAF1. When TRAF1 was interfered successfully, we selected the strongest interference efficiency ShRNA by real-time PCR and Western blot. Based on interference targeting TRAF1 on gastric cancer, we tested the cell proliferation activity and apoptosis through MTT assay and flow cytometry, and the cell migration by transwell migration assay. RESULTS: The expression of TRAF1 was increased in BGC823, SGC7901, and MGC803 gastric cancer cell lines compared with gastric epithelial cells (P<0.05), and the highest expression was in BGC823 gastric cell line. In the three TRAF1 shRNAs, the strongest interference efficiency shRNA was pLVX-shRNA-TRAF1-shRNA2. When the gene TRAF1 of BGC823 was interfered, the cell growing power was weakened and the apoptosis rate increased, and the cell migration had no difference. CONCLUSION The expression of TRAF1 is up-regulated in gastric cancer cell lines BGC823, SGC7901, and MGC803, and the most obvious one is BGC823. The interference targeting TRAF1 can successfully inhibit the expression of TRAF1 in gastric cancer cell line BGC823. TRAF1 can inhibit the apoptosis of BGC823 cells.
