At present,radiofrequency ablation (RFA),as a minimally-invasive and effective therapeutic means,is widely employed for the treatment of hepatic tumors.This technique is especially suitable for the patients with liver tumor who are unwilling to accept surgery or who cannot undergo surgery.In the past 20 years,great development and progress have been achieved in RFA technology.As a main therapeutic tool,the property of the radiofrequency electrode needle has great influence on the curative effect.This paper aims to make a comprehensive summary about the radiofrequency electrode needles that are currently used in clinical practice or are still in the research and development stage,focusing on the following special radiofrequency electrode needles,including multiple-point expandable electrode needle,perfusion electrode needle,internal cooling electrode needle and bipolar electrode needle.The properties and distinguishing features of these radiofrequency electrode needles will be discussed,and their advantages and disadvantages will be compared.In order to improve the curative effect of RFA for hepatic tumors,further research is suggested.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery (OBCS) in the treatment of early breast cancer. Methods:The clinicopathological data of breast cancer patients who were treated with OBCS (67 cases) and standard breast-conserving surgery (SBCS;117 cases) in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Postop-erative complication, specimen weight, margins, and surgery re-excision rate between the two groups were compared. Results:Sero-ma (14.9%versus 48.7%, P<0.001), hematoma (4.5%versus 14.5%, P=0.035), and poor wound healing (3.0%versus 11.9%, P=0.036) were more common in the SBCS group than in the OBCS group. The patient satisfaction in the OBCS group was statistically higher than in the SBCS group (P<0.05). Compared with standard surgery, oncoplastic techniques can be employed for significantly larger tumors (25.04 mm versus 21.14 mm, P<0.001). OBCS resulted in higher mean specimen weights (92.24 g versus 57.44 g, P<0.001), wider clear nearest margins (12.04 mm versus 9.58 mm, P<0.001), and wider furthest margins (24.16 mm versus 15.24 mm, P<0.001). No statisti-cal increase was observed in further surgery re-excision of margins. Conclusion:OBCS is more successful than standard wide local exci-sion in treating larger tumors and obtaining wider radial margins. Oncoplastic approach showed no increase in postoperative complica-tion rate. The postoperative complication was excellent. OBCS is a safe and effective procedure for early breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the levels and its clinical significance of activated platelets in patients with transient ischemic attack(TIA). Methods Color Doppler flow imaging was used to measure the degree of carotid atherosclerosis in 72 patients with TIA(TIA group). Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to measure the levels of PAC-1 and CD62P. They were compared with 30 healthy controls(NC guoup).

Objective To research a pure capacitance sensor for acquisition of cardiac phonocardiogram. Methods Under the phantom power supply (48V), the faint vibration signal of the heart was processed into electric signal by larger pre - treatment circuit module, shielded cable and the sensor pre-amplifier of circuit module. Results With some experiments, it can be proved that the sensor won't have affect on the sound field which frequency band under 1 000Hz and can detect the level of sound field like 20dB:30dB and 150dB or higher. Conclusion So with the sensor, the precise signal which can exactly reflect the status of patients' hearts can be detected, and it suits to work in complex condition for its high sensitivity, wide frequency band and low distortion.

The reimbursement on high-value drug expenses for patients is an important approach of catastrophic disease medical insurance.Hong Kong has established in a drug safety network, that has achieved remarkable results in improving the accessibility to high-value drugs and the burden of disease and effectively alleviated patients' financial burden.This paper systematically analyzes the history, process of adding drugs to directory, application conditions for drugs and patients, development status, and characteristics of drug safety network in Hong Kong.This study points out that although Mainland China has gradually established the high-value drug directory for catastrophic disease through the method of drug negotiation, the mechanism of high-value drug directory is not mature yet.To achieve the convergence between high-value drug directory, basic medical insurance drug directory, and new rural cooperative medical scheme drug directory, Mainland China needs to: 1) First, learn from the drug safety network in Hong Kong and establish access and exist mechanism for high-value drug directory;2) Then, expand insurance coverage of high-value drugs by establishing a multi-channel and socialized financing mechanism;3) Finally, strengthen the major disease medical insurance by adhering to the principles of buying drugs and getting drugs for free and reforming the fixed-ratio-reimbursement model.

Objective To investigate the effects of minocycline,a selective microglia inhibitor on dorsal GABAB receptor expression in the spinal cord in a rat model of neuropathic pain and the possible mechanism.Methods Forty-eight male SD rats weighing 220-260 g were used in this study.Neuropathic pain was induced by ligation of L5 spinal nerve(SNL).The animals were randomly divided into 4 groups(n=12 each):Ⅰ sham operation;Ⅱ SNL;Ⅲ sham operation+intrathecal(IT)minocycline 50 μg;IV SNL+IT minecycline 50 μg.Paw withdrawal threshold to von Frey hair stimulation was measured before operation(baseline)and at post-surgery days 1,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18 in 6 animals in each group.The GABABR2 expression in dorsal horn of spinal cord was detected by Western blot at the time point when paw withdrawal threshold to mechanical stimulation was the lowest in another six animals which did not undergo yon Frey hair stimulation test.Results The paw withdrawal threshold to mechanical stimuli and the GABABR2 expression in the dorsal horn of spinal cord were significantly lower in SNL group than in sham operation group.The decreased paw withdrawal threshold to von Frey hair stimulation and the down-regulated GABABR2 expression in the spinal cord induced by SNL were ameliorated by intrathecal administration of micmglia inhibitor- minocycline in group Ⅳ.Conclusion The mechanism of neuropathic pain mediated by microglia activation may be related to the inhibition of GABAB receptor activation.

Objective To summarize the onset and the management of serious responsiveness during the tilt table test (TTT), and the prevention measures. Methods Thirty six elderly patients (26 males and 10 females, aged between 60 70) were tested with a tilt angle of 70 degrees for a maximum of 45 minutes and then processed with isoproterenol provocative tilt testing. ECG and blood pressure were monitored during the test and the peripheral intravenous cannula were maintained for all patients with normal saline. Results Twenty one of the 36 patients were defined as positive including 10 showing serious responsiveness. Of the 10 patients, 3 had a history of atherosclerosis involving internal carotid arteries; among the 3 with bradycardia, 2 were associated with II? A V block, and another one was with chronic atrial fibrillation. The serious reponsiveness included asystole for more than 5 seconds(3 cases) , serious bradycardia for more than 1 minute(3 cases) , and serious hypotension for more than 1 minute (4 case), respectively. Those with serious responsiveness were managed with returning to supine position, or intraveneous atropine, or CPR (2 cases), or oxygen given(4 cases). Only 2 hypotensive patients recovered gradually in 10 minute emergent management while others recovered rapidly and with no complication. Conclusions TTT may result in serious responsiveness especially in elderly patients though it is non invasive method. Therefore, proper patient selection according to the indications, control of isoproterenal infusion and close observation of vital signs are important for a safe consequence.

AIM: To evaluate the clinical effect and the rotational stability of AcrySof Toric intraocular lens ( IOL ) implantation to correct preexisting corneal astigmatism in cataract surgery.
METHODS: Twenty-three patients ( 28 eyes ) were enrolled from the department of ophthalmology in the first Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. All patients underwent similar phacoemulsification procedure combined with AcrySof Toric IOL implantation from June 2012 to December 2013. The uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA ) , best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , anticipated residual astigmatism, postoperative residual astigmatism, and Toric IOL axis were detected and measured.
RESULTS:Three months after operation, the UCVA of all eyes were 0. 75±0. 16 and the BCVA were 0. 84±0. 15, there was no significant difference between UCVA and BCVA ( t = 1. 036, P>0. 05 ). The anticipated residual astigmatism was ( 0. 28±0. 12 ) D. The actual residual astigmatism after 3mo of the operation was (0. 42±0. 17) D. There was no significant difference between anticipated and actual residual astigmatism (t=1. 259, P>0. 05). The mean axis rotation of Toric IOL was 3. 02o±1.56o (0o-7o) after 1d of operation and 3. 28o±1. 85o (0o-7o) after 3mo. Among all the eyes, 25 eyes ( 89%) rotated <5o, in 3 eyes (11%) rotated 5o-7o.
CONCLUSION: The AcrySof Toric IOL implantation shows good effectiveness, predictability and stability in correcting pre-existing astigmatism in cataract patients.
