Objective To investigate the current status of medication compliance of patients with anky-losing spondylifis and analyze its related factors. Methods Seventy-four patients with ankylosing spondylitis were investigated about their general conditions,medication compliance and its related factors.The results were analyzed. Results Thirty-nine patients(52.7%) had good medication compliance while the rest 35 cases has poor medication compliance among which 24 patients with drug withdrawal exceeded 1 month.The medication compliance for patients with disease process of lower than 0.5 year,0.5 to 1.0 year,1 to 2 years and above 2 years was 82.0%,60.0%,25.0%and 31.0%.The logistic regression analysis showed that the disease process,dis-ease knowledge and media advertisement were the main influencing factor for medication compliance,while the age,sex,marital status,education background,adverse reaction,satisfaction degree with medication effect, economic conditions and depression were not major influencing factors. Conclusions About half of patients with anky-losing spondylitis had poor medication compliance,especialy with disease process of above 1 year.The main in-fluencing factors include disease process,disease knowledge and media advertisement.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of 64-slice spiral CT (64SCT) in assessing coronary artery disease.Methods A total of 30 suspected patients (male 21 cases, female 9 cases, and mean age of 54.6 years) were undergone both 64SCT and selective coronary angiography (SCA). Volume redering (VR) ,multiplanar reconstruction (MPR), maximum intensity projection (MIP) and transverse section were reconstructed. The results of coronary reconstructions were compared with SCA to analyze the accuracy of the 64SCT in detecting coronary artery stenoses.Results In the 396 segments of coronary artery(diameter≥2 mm)of 30 patients, 385 were judged to be evaluable by 64SCT. The evaluable rate was 97.2%. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the 64SCT in detecting coronary artery stenoses(≥50% of stenosis) were 96.22%, 94.56%, 89.44% and 96.88%. The accuracy rate of 64SCT in detecting ≥50% stenosis of coronary artery was 95.90%.Conclusion 64SCT has high accuracy in detecting coronary artery stenoses, as a noninvasive method,it can be used for screening patients with known or coronary artery diseases.

BACKGROUND:The adhesion between muscle tendon and surrounding tissue after tendon restoration is one hot topic in clinic.
OBJECTIVE:To construct a deep flexor tendon transection model in the third toe of female Leghorn chicken and to explore the effect of peritenon transplantation on the prevention of tendon adhesions.
METHODS:After the transection models were successful y established, the third toe of left claw was taken as experimental group A. The transected tendon was sutured, the tendon anastomosis end was wrapped with the peritenon of the deep flexor tendon from the ipsilateral fourth toe (experimental group B). The third toe of right claw served as control group A, the transfected tendon was sutured and restored with the peritenon. The fourth toe of right claw was taken as control group B. Gross observation and histological observation of the tendon were performed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 28 days postoperatively, gross observation and histological observation of Leghorn chicken were performed and compared using the Kruskal-Wal isH and Nemenyi test, respectively. The results showed that, the therapeutic effect was better in experimental group A than in control group A (P<0.05), but slightly poorer compared with control group B and experimental group B (P<0.05). The postoperative effect was better in experimental group B than in control group A (P<0.05) and showed no significant difference between experimental group B and control group B (P>0.05). The flexor function was evaluated and compared with the least significant difference t-test. The results showed that the postoperative effect was better in experimental group A than in control group A (P<0.05), but slightly poorer compared with control group B and experimental group B (P<0.05). The postoperative effect was better in experimental group B than in control group A (P<0.05) and showed no significant difference compared with control group B (P>0.05). Peritenon transplantation can effectively prevent tendon adhesions and has little impact on normal tendon sliding.

Objective To compare the antitumor effect of self-developed albumin bound paclitaxel for injection ( PAB) and commercial albumin-bound paclitaxel for injection ( Abraxane ) . Methods The antineoplastic effects of PAB and Abraxane were evaluated in H22, Lewis and RM-1 allograft tumor mouse models after repeated intravenous injection (13. 4, 20. 0, 30. 0 and 45. 0 mg·kg-1 PAB and 20. 0 and/or 30. 0 mg·kg-1 Abraxane, respectively). Results PAB significantly inhibited H22 tumor growth at from the doses of 13. 4, 20. 0, 30. 0, and 45. 0 mg·kg-1,and the antitumor effect of PAB at 20. 0 mg·kg-1 was not significantly different from Abraxane at 20. 0 mg·kg-1 . PAB dose-dependently inhibited Lewis and RM-1 tumor growth at the doses of 20. 0, 30. 0, and 45. 0 mg·kg-1 . The no observed adverse effect level of PAB and Abraxane was 20. 0 mg· kg-1 in Lewis and RM-1 bearing C57 female mice. The antitumor effect and toxicity was not significantly different between PAB and Abraxane at equivalent doses. Conclusion At the same dose level, the antitumor activity and toxicity of PAB was equivalent to those of Abraxane.

Objective To study the effect of recombinant interlukin-2 plus chemotherapy in treatment of multiple myeloma. Methods We divided into two groups: chemotherapy plus rIL-2 group and simple chemotherapy group. The patients were given at dose of rIL-2 1×l06 IU/d, iH, qd, for 4 weeks and 4cycles. After 4 cycles the changes of T-cell subsets of their peripheral blood were determined. Response was evaluated according to Blad criteria. Adverse events were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria,version 3.0. Results The positive percentages of CD_3, CD_4 NK, CD_(69) and CD_4/CD_8ratio after chemotherapy in chemotherapy plus rIL-2 group were significantly higher than those before chemotherapy in the same group and those after chemotherapy in the other group. The overall response rate and complete response rate were 66.7 % and 25.0 % vs 50.0 % and 8.3 % respectively. The side effects of rIL-2 were predictable and manageable. Conclusion Recombinant interlukin-2 plus chemotherapy could increase immune function of patients with multiple myeloma and has a higher response rate as compared with simple chemotherapy.

BACKGROUND:Tendon adhesions after tendon repair have been one of the problems difficult to solve in clinical practice. OBJECTIVE:To introduce the current situation and progress of the prevention of postoperative tendon adhesions. METHODS: A computer-based search of CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed databases for articles related to prevention of tendon adhesions published from January 1971 to May 2014 using the keywords of “tendon injury; tendon adhesions; progress” in Chinese and English, respectively. Repetitive content and irrelevant articles were excluded, and finaly 40 articles were included in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of tendons and causes of tendon adhesions, summarize the methods for prevention of tendon adhesions and the therapeutic effects, and thereby analyze the pros and cons of various methods and materials for prevention of tendon adhesions. Prevention of tendon adhesions after tendon repair involves various aspects: thorough debridement, better surgical approach, microsurgical repair of tendon tissues, applications of drugs and barrier materials, physical therapy as wel as appropriate functional exercise after tendon repair. The integrated use of these means can be done to prevent the occurrence of postoperative tendon adhesions.
