Objective To observe the clinical effect of interferon -1 b (Yundesu)in the treatment of verru-ca planae.Methods 1 1 0 patients with verruca pianae were randomly divided into observation group and control group,55 cases in each group.The observation group was given Yundesu injection 30 g once every day in first week, and once every other day in another three weeks.The control group was given orally mannatide 1 0ml two times every day.The leision changes of the two groups were observed after 4 weeks therapy.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 92.7%(51 /55),which of the control group was 72.78%(40 /55),the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2 =7.70,P <0.01 ).No adverse reactions in the two groups were observed.Conclusion The clinical effect of Yundesu is more prominently beneficial to patients with verruca planae.

Recently imageless navigation systems have been developed rapidly, and have become major navigation system in clinic. It comprises computer workstation, infrared optical localizing system, foot control pedal and navigation software. Currently, imageless navigation systems have been used successfully in total knee arthroplasty, uni-compartment arthroplasty, total hip arthroplasty, hip surfacing arthroplasty, total shoulder arthroplasty, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and peri-articular osteotomy of knee, etc. The first OrthoPilot imageless navigation system was used by Saragaglia et al in total knee arthroplasty in January 1997, and many clinical studies have been conducted. The clinical results show that this kind of systems greatly improves operative accuracy, and reduce cases beyond ideal range. It shows accuracy as CT-based navigation systems, and they can be commonly used as standard navigation systems in clinic.

The purpose of this work was to reestablish the respiratory abduction of the paralyzed vocal cord through reinnervation of the posterior cricoarytenoid (PCA) muscle by partial phrenic fibres.In fifteen adult cats the adductor branch of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) of the right side was cut and its distal end ligated, while its proximal end was implanted into the PCA muscle belly.The whole RLN was then transected in the tracheo-esophageal groove and its distal stump anastomosed to the upper branch of the phrenic nerve.Direct laryngoscopy showed that the inspiratory abduction of the paralyzed vocal cord recovered within 40 d in all cats.80 d later, a larger abducent motion of the glottis was observed on the reinnervated side.Abduction was caused by reinnervation of the PCA muscle from phrenic motoneurons, as demonstrated by laryngeal electromyography and histological testings.The function of the diaphragm was preserved as revealed by monitoring of the intrathoracic pressure.

Anode is an important part of microbial fuel cell, its performance significantly affects the electricity generation of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Nanomaterials have excellent properties, such as good conductivity and large surface area. Therefore, nanomaterials modified anode can effectively reduce the electrode resistance, increase the amount of microbial adhesion and improve the electricity generation of MFCs. In this paper, we introduced various nanomaterials modified anodes and summarized their effects on the output performance of MFCs. Finally, the prospect of modifying nanomaterials and technologies were discussed.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the serum levels of homocysteine (Hcy) ,folate acid (FA) and vita‐min B12 (VitB12 ) with cerebral infarction .Methods The enzymatic cycling method and chemiluminescence immunoassay were used to detect the serum Hcy ,FA and Vit B12 levels in 60 patients with cerebral infarction ,and then the detection results were compared the results of 40 people undergoing physical examination in the same period .Results The serum Hcy level in the cerebral infarction group was (23 .16 ± 8 .17)μmol/L ,which was significantly higher than (8 .09 ± 2 .45)μmol/L in the control group(P<0 .01) ,and the serum FA and Vit B12 levels in the cerebral infarction group were (6 .12 ± 2 .19) ng/mL and (323 .92 ± 133 .79)μmol/L ,which were in the control group lower than (10 .57 ± 5 .70) ng/mL and (530 .85 ± 168 .56)μmol/L in the control group (P<0 .01) .The serum Hcy level in the cerebral infarction group showed the negative correlation with FA and VitB 12 levels ( r1 = - 0 .444 , r2 = -0 .535 ,P<0 .05) .Conclusion High hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor of cerebral infarction and is related to the decrease of FA and VitB12 .

Molecular targeted therapy (MTT) refers to a new therapy designed to interfere with a specific molecular target or signaling pathway that may have a significant influence in tumor growth or progression. MTT can inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis by specific interventions in the signaling pathways of tumor cells. MTT exhibits potential as an effective treatment against cancer. This approach can improve the ability to kill cancer cells and reduce damage to normal tissues. MTT has gradually been used clinically in treating cancer and shown advantages over traditional methods. This paper reviews research progress in this targeted therapy to treat gynecological cancer.

Objective To observe the effect of treating DPN with xuesaitong tablet and mecobalamine. Methods 112 patients with DPN were randomly recruited into a treatment group (60 cases) and a control group (52 cases). The control group was treated with mecobalamine, 0.5 mg. Rid., while the treatment group was treated with Xuesaitong tablet, 50mg tid.,On the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for successive three months. Results The total effective rate was 78.33% and 57.70% in the treatment group and the control group respectively, showing a statistical difference (t= 1.9804, P=0.0271). Conclusion The combined therapy of xuesaitong tablet and mecobalamine was more effective on DPN than mecobalamine used only.
