In 1999, the nomenclature and case definitions for neuropsychiatric lupus syndromes were published by American College of Rheumatology (ACR), and the cognition of neuropsychiatric damage of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was gradually unified and standardized. Lupus headache is an intractable problem in SLE, especially in SLE patients complicated with multiple organ injury. In general, vascular headache is common in most SLE patients, and a small number of SLE patients complicated with nervous headache are found in clinic. Moreover, its pathophysiological mechanism is far from being understood. Although early diagnosis is essential for good outcomes, the diagnosis method is rather confused in the world. There still exist some limitations in the proposal of clinical classification of headache from ACR and International Headache Society (IHS), and the proposal does not mention the classification of headache related to psychiatric damage. Current therapeutic regimens are almost exclusively based on empirical evidence. Treatment approaches include symptomatic treatment, immunosuppressive, anticoagulant and anti-aggregant therapies. It provides enormous and hopeful space in research of combined therapy strategy, especially in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. The authors discussed the relationship between lupus headache and headache due to internal injury in the view of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and suggested that the treatment strategy for lupus headache should be made in argument with the headache due to internal injury. Syndrome differentiation treatment according to deficiency in the root and excess in the branch and the therapy for activating blood to dredge collaterals maybe have great advantages in treatment of the headache in SLE.

OBJECTIVE To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) com-bined with high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in the treatment of middle and advanced primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS:76 patients with middle and advanced primary HCC were randomly divided into treatment group(36 cases) and control group(40 cases). Control group was given TACE alone,and treatment group was additionally given HIFU 2-3 weeks after TACE. Clinical efficacy,the content of alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)before and after operation,survival rate,survival period and ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The efficiency rate and total effective rate of treatment group were 61.1% and 94.4%,which were significantly higher than those of control group(35.0%,77.5%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). The content of AFP in 2 groups decreased significantly after operation,with statistical significance(P<0.05);there also was statistical significance between 2 groups(P<0.05). Survival rate of treatment group was higher than that of control group 24 and 36 months after operation,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The median survival time was 11.3 months in treatment group and 9.2 month in control group,with no statistical difference(P>0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Com-pared with TACE alone,TACE combined with HIFU in the treatment of middle and advanced primary HCC can improve long-term survival rate and the short-term efficacy,with good safety.

Objective To evaluate the potential use of a probe melting analysis (PMA) assay in detecting the embB mutations which confer resistance against ethambutol in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Methods The analysis sensitivity and specificity of PMA were investigated by detecting a serially diluted H37 Rv DNA and a reference panel from National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Product. Six hundred and thirteen sputum samples were collected from the Xiamen Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Xiamen First Hospital and Center for Zhangzhou Disease Control and Prevention from September 2009 to April 2010. The PMA assay was then evaluated by detecting 613 clinical isolates and the results were compared with the sequencing results. Results The PMA assay could specifically detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis and had a limit of detection of 3 copies per reaction. The assay results with 613 clinical isolates showed that PMA gave a 100% concordance with sequencing in the 583 qualified samples, among which 34 were mutations at embB 306,23 at embB 378-380, 3 at embB 406 and 3 at embB 497. Conclusions PMA assay is a sensitive and specific method enabling efficient detection of common embB mutations causing ethambutol-resistance. The rapidness of this method together with its reliability would facilitate its use in routine testing.
