Objective To evaluate and compare the advantages and disadvantages and the clinical application between transvaginal abdominal hysterectomy(TAH)and laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy(LAVH)on the benign lesions of non-prolapsed uterus.Methods 400 patients with benign lesions of non-prolapsed uterus were divided into two groups,TAH group(202 cases)and LAVH group(198 cases).The effects of clinical treatment of the two groups were compared.Results There were significant differentces between the two groups in operation time,the blood loss,passage of gas by anus,return to normal activities,and overall cost of treatment.However,after 1to 3 months follow-up,all patients were good in terms of outcome.Conclusion Different surgical patterns of hysterectomy had their distinctive advantages.The key point of a successful operation Was to avoid complications of the operation.

Objective To study the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on rats'locomotor function after hemisectional spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods A model of hemisectional SCI was established at the T10 segment in 12 rats,which were then randomly divided into an SCI-rTMS group and an SCI-control group.Another 6 rats served as normal controls.The SCI-rTMS group received threshold rTMS daily for 4 weeks,while the SCI-control group was given sham rTMS.The normal control group was left without any treatment.BassoBeatti-Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor scores were recorded weekly.Motor evoked potential (MEP) was detected at the 28th day after the operation.Neurofilament-200 (NF-200) was detected with immunofluorescent staining of the spinal cord lesions. Results The BBB scores in the SCI-rTMS group improved more than those in the SCI-control group.MEP of the fight hindlimb was detected in the rTMS group,but not in the control group.Expression of NF-200 marker increased significantly more than in the rTMS group. Conclusions rTMS can improve locomotor function of rats after spinal cord hemisectioning,which may result from increased expression of NF-200 and the regeneration of axons.

Objective To investigate the changes of non-linear dynamics properties of EEG under different mental tasks,and the application of non-linear dynamic analysis for cognitive function research. Methods EEG was recorded in 30 healthy university students under four states: eyes closed,eyes open,mental arithmetic with eyes closed and graphic reasoning test with eyes open.Correlation dimension (D 2) and point-wise correlation dimension (PD 2) were calculated for all subjects.We also performed a surrogate data test in 5 randomized selected subjects. Results In all states tested,the results argued for the presence of non-linearity and fractal D 2 and PD 2.D 2 and PD 2 increased significantly during mental tasks as compared to the rest states (D 2 of above four states was 3.93,4.47,4.33 and 4.98 respectively).The results showed that values of D 2 and PD 2 fluctuated with time,which suggests an intermittent activation of the brain areas participated in the task.With non-linear dynamic analysis,there might be a working circuit from bilateral temporal lobes to the left frontal lobe and parental lobe under mental arithmetic task.Conclusions Through dynamic analysis based on D 2 and PD 2 topographic maps,we can see clearly the distribution of D 2 and PD 2 in the brain,the sequence and the degree of activation of the regions involved in the cognitive task under mental tasks.Dynamic and short-time non-linear analysis methods are more appropriate for the study of mental functions.Non-linear dynamic analysis might help us understand the working mechanism of brain during mental activities.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of IF ?-2b plus compound glycyrrhizin on chronic hepatitis C. METHODS:56cases of chronic hepatitis C were divided into trial group(30cases)and control group(26cases).Trial group received IF ?-2b +compound glycyrrhizin and control group received IF ?-2b alone.The therapeutic course was24weeks in both groups.RESULTS:There was significant difference in recoversion rate of ALT between two groups either at the end of ther?apeutic course or24weeks after treatment(P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of combined use of acupuncture and medicine in treating spasmodic torticollis.Method Thirty patients were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 15 cases and a control group of 15 cases. The treatment group received combined use of acupuncture and medicine, and the control group, acupuncture alone.Result Clinical observation lasted one year. There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the Tsui score in the two groups at 6 and 12 months after treatment (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in the Tsui score between at 6 and 12 months after treatment in the two groups (P<0.01); the Tsui score decreased gradually after treatment. There was a statistically significant post-treatment difference in the Tsui score between the two groups at 12 months after treatment (P<0.05); the Tsui score decreased more in the treatment group.Conclusion The cure and marked efficacy rate of combined use of acupuncture and medicine for spasmodic torticollis is higher than that of acupuncture alone. A longer course is needed for acupuncture treatment of spasmodic torticollis and the patient should persevere with the treatment.

Pseudotemporal lobe epilepsy refers to an electroencephalogram (EEG) ictal pattern that is localized to the temporal region and the clinical ictal symptoms like the temporal seizure, especially mesial temporal seizure. But the epileptogenic zone is on the extratemporal regions. It is not easy to diagnose pseudotemporal lobe epilepsy. There are difficulties to detect by scalp EEG, and stereoelectroencephalography is usually required for epileptogenetic zone localization. Pseudotemporal lobe epilepsy almost is refractory for antiepileptic drugs. But the situation is illustrated by the failure of temporal lobe surgery resection alone. Therefore, the good result is often obtained after an epileptogenic zone and symptomatic zone resection.

Objective To evaluate the application value of MiniFilerTM kit in LCN-STR genotyping in forensic science.Methods Compared the testing results of MiniFilerTM and IdentifilerTM kits in 49 general quantity biological samples and 39 LCN-biological samples,including blood stains,sperm stains,bones,and so on.Meanwhile the sensitivity of these two kits were also compared.Results Full concordance between IdentifilerTM and MiniFilerTM kits was observed in all of 49 general quantity biological samples.For 39 LCN-biological samples,only 22 samples could be genotyped in partial loci and 17 samples negative with the IdentifilerTM kit,while 30 samples could be genotyped in all loci,5 samples in partial loci and 4 samples negative with the MiniFilerTM kit.Therefore,there was a higher success rate for LCN-biological samples typing with MiniFilerTM kit than with IdentifilerTM kit.In addition,the sensitivity of the MiniFilerTMkit was also a little higer than the IdentifilerTMkit.Conclusion The results demonstrated that the MiniFilerTM kit can markedly improve the typing success rate of LCN-biological samples,and is suitable for analyzing difficult biological samples in forensic practice.

Objective To evaluate the quality of life (QOL) in adults with epilepsy.Methods The QOLIE-31 and the SDS were administered to 33 adults with epilepsy who met the entry criteria, and 17 healthy volunteers who had the similar personal characters. Results Patients' scores of SDS were adversely associated with seven of the eight QOL domains (except for medication effect) independent of other factors. Duration of the disease was the independent risk factor to overall health and medication effect. The GTC group (17 subjects) and the CPS group (16 subjects) were both obviously compared with the control group in medication effect (GTC group 61.0?23.8,CPS group 56.6?19.4,control 100.0?0.0) and seizure worry domains ( P

Objective Four cases of screen epilepsy were reported Methods Clinical analysis of four cases of TV epilepsy Results Of the four cases, two had the seizures evoked by changing channel of TV set only, one evoked by watching TV, and the other had the seizure triggered by video game. The seizures of two cases showed GTCS, one case showed partial seizure with secondarily generalized seizure, and the other showed partial seizure and absence Conclusion Screen epilepsy may have several seizure types, not only have GTCS but also have partial seizure and absence.

Objective To investigate the influence of topiramate(TPM) on quantitative pharmacoelectroencephalography (QPEEG) in normal subjects and epilepsy patients. Methods EEG were recorded in normal and epileptic subjects prior to and at 0.5,1,2,4,6,8,12,24 hours after the administration of single dose of TPM.The EEG power spectral activity including the absolute power,percent of power,total power in both occipital and total power of the whole scalp areas were calculated through 30 s epochs without artifacts after each recording.The statistical difference between baseline assessment and each post-drug time point was analyzed by the Wilcoxon matched-paired rank test. Results The power of sloe wave(peak value 66.76 ?V 2),?1-band (peak value 57.33 ?V 2)and total power (peak value 385.12 ?V 2)was increased after the administration of TPM and the total power of the whole scalp areas was also increased(peak value 2 500.75?V 2).The percent of power of ?-band(peak value 12.4%) and ?1-band(healthy control,peak value 17.5%) or ?-band(patient,peak value 13.94%)was increased,while ?3-band(healthy control,lowest value 10.4%) decreased. Conclusion TPM might change the background activity of EEG that was different from other antiepilepsy drugs.
