Objective To study the relationship between serum high sensitive C-reactive protein(Im-CRP) and acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Methods We detected and analyzed the levels of hs-CRP in 38 clinical deft-trite patients with ACS. Results Patients with ACS had significantly higher serum hs-CRP levels than the control group(P < 0.05). Conclusion Serum hs-CRP level has high correlation with ACS, and the hs-CRP maybe a arthero-sclerosis marker,which reflected the process of coronary artery disease.

Objective To investigate the relationship between different types of acute ischemic stroke in elderly patients and serum oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OX-LDL),blood sugar,C-reactive protein(CRP) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels.Methods 100 patients with acute cerebral infarction (group A) and 30 heathy patients (group B)were investigated.The levels of serum OX-LDL,blood sugar,CRP and IL-6 were detected by automatic biochemical analysis.Results The levels of OX-LDL(627.2 ± 174.7 ) μg/L,blood sugar ( 8.8 ± 1.7 ) mmol/L,CRP ( 107.5 ±19.4)mg/L and IL-6(79.5 ± 12.1 )ng/L in patients of group A were significantly higher than group B[ OX-LDL(506.1 ± 152.4) μg/L,blood sugar(6.9 ± 1.5) mmol/L,CRP(87.2 ± 13.6) mg/L and IL-6(58.5 ± 10.3) ng/L](t=2.74,3.18,2.61,2.91,allP＜0.05).Conclusion Elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction were closely related to the elevated levels of plasma OX-LDL,blood sugar,CRP and IL-6.Increased plasma OX-LDL was a risk factor for the main artery atherosclerosis type,and hyperglycemia was primary factor for the small artery atherosclerosis type of acute cerebral infarction.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of amended concave position in gynecological laparoscopy surgery.Methods: Eighty ASAⅠ~Ⅱ patients with gynecological laparoscopy surgery were randomly divided into two groups, the patients in group A were adopted Trendelenburg position; the patients in group B were adopted amended concave position. The Ppeak and PETCO2 in the two groups were recorded during surgery, the time of extubation and the adverse effects as nausea, vomiting, shivering was recorded after surgery.Results: The Ppeak and PETCO2 of group A were higher than that of group B(t=2.526,t=2.838, t=2.881;P<0.05). The time of extubation of group A were higher than that of group B after surgery(t=2.515,t=2.436;P<0.05).Conclusion: Adopting amended concave position can reduce Ppeak and PETCO2 in gynecological laparoscopic surgery, and it is helpful for postoperative recovery of the patients with gynecological laparoscopy surgery.

Alimentary tract duplications are rare congenital anomalies that usually present in childhood and occasionally in adults. They are most common in the ileum, but can occur anywhere along the alimentary tract from the mouth to the anus. We report a 24-year-old woman who presented with a giant chylous ileum cyst duplication. To our knowledge, there is only one other report of a patient with a giant chylous cyst in the literature.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) in the treatment of sacrococcygeal decubitus ulcers grade Ⅲ with direct polymerizing suture after appling rhEGF to reinforce wound bed preparation (WBP). Methods From January 2007 to October 2009, 60 patients with sacrococcygeal decubitus ulcers Grade Ⅲ, were divided into control group and treatment group. The ulcer size was 3 cm × 4 cm to 10 cm × 12 cm and all ulcers were infected for 15-70 d. Treatment group received traditional dressing change and appling rhEGF to reinforce wound bed preparation. Control group received traditional dressing change only. The operative technique that we used in two groups was direct polymerizing suture. Cure rate of stage Ⅰ and complication morbidities were analyzed. Results Cure rate of stage Ⅰ was 87% in treatment group and 70% in control group. Complication morbidities were 13% in treatment group and 30% in control group. The difference between these two groups was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Appling rhEGF to reinforce wound bed preparation before operation could make subsequent treatment more effective and improve the cure ratio of operation with decreasing complications and morbidities. And more, dissecting under fascia possesses the advantages of easiness to perform and rich blood supply.The method of appling rhEGF with direct polymerizing suture is a simple, high efficient approach for the first repairment of sacrococcygeal decubitus ulcers grade Ⅲ, especially desirable for the elderly.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotection of delayed treatment of thoracic acute spinal cord injury with recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) in rat model of compressive injury. Methods Sixteen adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group (compressive injury group) and experimental group (rhEPO group), In the compressive injury group,the animals recived 0.9% saline treatment at 2 h, day 1 and day 3 after the injury, while in the rhEPO group, rhEPO (3 000 U/kg) was given to rats at 2 h, day 1 and day 3 after the injury. All the rats were observed in 4 days after the injury. The primary outcomes were evaluated by BBB scale, apoptotic index, inflammatory index and electron microscopy. Results Delayed treatment of thoracic acute spinal cord injury with rhEPO could reduce apoptosis, regulate inflammation, improve motor function and promote regeneration of the spinal cord. Conclusion Our study suggests that delayed treatment of thoracic spinal cord compressive injury with rhEPO could exert neuroprotection.

Objective To observe the recent effects and toxicity in advanced gastric carcinoma by two kinds of neoadjuvant chemotherapies ( PF and FOLFOX).Methods A total of 60 patients with advanced gastric cancer ( Ⅲ ～ Ⅳ ),they were randomly divided into 2 groups; PF group ( 30 cases) and FOLFOX group ( 30 cases).All patients were given 3 cycles of docetaxel or L-OHP chemotherapy preoperatively,to observe the recent effects and toxicity in advanced gastric carcinoma.Results The total effective rate in PF group was 77.67％,while it was 50.00％ in FOLFOX group,it had significant difference between in two groups ( x2 =4.59,P ＜ 0.05 ).There is no difference in the incidence of neutropenia,transaminase elevation,nausea and diarrhea two groups.The incidence of hair loss in PF group is higher than in FOLFOX group,but there is no difference between two groups; The incidence of peripheral nerve paresthesia in FOLFOX group is higher than that in PF group( x2 =5.08,P ＜0.05).Conclusion PF as neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a very effective and well-tolerated regimen in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Prof. LIN Ying-qiang,a famous bone-setting and massage doctor,is good at treating soft tissue injury. He emphasizes not only on 'treatment aiming at its pathogenesis' but also on application of anatomy and biomechanics in clinic. His bone-setting manipulations based on 'explosive force'manipulation and herbal get remarkable clinical effects on the treatment of neck-shoulder and lumbocrural pain.

Objective To investigate the safety and therapeutic effect of intra-carotid infusion with cold sa line in rats with acute focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods 60 rats were randomly divided into six groups:sham operated group,normal infusion group,stroke group,local hypothermic group,local normothermic group,and systemic infusion group.Brain infarct volume and cerebral water content were analyzed 48 h after ischemia.Neurological deficits were assessed using the mNSS 24 h and 48 h after infarction.Results In the local hypothermic group,brain temperature was reduced to 33 to 34 ℃ within 5 to 10 minutes,and this significantly low temperature maintained to nearly 60 minutes after infusion continued.Physiological variables were not significantly different among each time point (P ＞ 0.05).No significant morphological abnormality was found in brain sections stained with TTC and HE.Animals receiving local cold infusion significantly decreased infarct volume and brain water content compared to stroke group (P ＜ 0.05).Both 24 h and 48 h mNSS in local hypothermic group was significantly lower than those in other groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Intra-carotid infusion with cold saline can quickly and effectively reduce brain temperature and is a relatively safe cooling method.Local hypothermia significantly reduced brain infarct volume,decreased brain water content and improved neurological functional outcomes after brain ischemia.
