Objective To investigate the clinical treatment efficacy of mutabilis coated nasal ointment to postoperative nasal septal reconstruction.Methods After surgical reconstruction,116 cases were divided into the treatment group and control group ac-cording to random method,58 cases in each group.The treatment group was given mutabilis coated nasal ointment combine with physiological seawater nasal care device;the control group was only given physiological seawater nasal care device in the same time. The effects were observed for 6 months.Results The total effective rate of treatment group was higher than the control group (98.28%),the two groups had significant difference(P <0.05).Postoperative follow-up,the bleeding rate in the treatment group have no significant difference compared with the control group(P >0.05);the incidence of infection and cavity stricture in the treat-ment group were significantly lower than the control group(P <0.05).Conclusion The application of mutabilis coated nasal oint-ment can promote the wound healing of nasal cavity,but also can prevent the operation adhesion,and shorten repair time,so as to improve the clinical effect of operation.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of serum clara cell secretory protein(CC16),total immunoglobulin E(TIgE)and eosinophil cationic protein(ECP)in children with asthma.Methods Serum were collected from 59 cases during asthmatic acute attacks,29 asthmatic children who were in mild conditions,and 30 cases who were in moderate to severe conditions,and 30 healthy children.Serum CC16 concentration were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),TIgE and ECP concentration were measured by uniCAP100.Results The levels of CC16 in serum of asthmatic children during acute attacks were significantly lower than that in control group(t=2.93 Pa

Evidence-based medicine(EBM) emphasizes that the clinical practice should be based on the combination of the best available clinical evidence,medical experiences and patient desire to cope with the demand of medical decision-making.Guidelines for good clinical(research) practice,conduct of more trials as multicentre trials,and the cochran collaboration may all help apply the best research evidence to clinical practice.China is challenged by variety of health problems.The implementation of EBM will improve the decision-making and health care services and protect the doctors and patients rights.

Using Mortierella isabellina as starting strain, mutagenized with UV,screened by selecting mutants resisting maleic hydrazide,a fatty acid dehydrogenase inhibitor, directly on gradient plate,a mutant M 80 overproducing Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) was obtained, which has much higher productive qualities than its parental strain Its dry cell weight reaches 25 10g/L,lipid yield 12 35g/L,and GLA yield 771 88mg/L

0.05) when all cases were put together. But the observed morbidity in group B (20%) was less than that in group A (40%) with the difference being statistically significant (?~2=4.41,P=0.036). ConclusionsThe POSSUM methodology allows satisfactory prediction of mortality and morbidity rates in patients undergoing colorectal tumor surgery.

ObjectiveTo investigate the application of rapid immunohistochemical staining technique in intraoperative frozen section diagnosis of thyroid neoplasm.Methods MaxVision one-step rapid immunohistochemical staining technique was used to detect the expression of CK19,HBME-1,and Gal-3 in frozen section of papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)andthyroid benign lesions.MaxVision conventional immunohistochemistry of frozen remaining tissue was served as control.ResultsMaxVision one-step rapid immunohistochemical staining technique could be completed in 20 minutes.The positive localizations of three markers detected by rapid immunohistochemistry were similar to conventional immunohistochemistry, in general.The expression of CK19 was located in cytoplasm and cellular membrane.Gal-3 and HBME-1 were mainly detected in follicular luminal border and/or surface of papilla. The staining intensity in rapid immunohistochemistry was stronger than that in conventional immunohistochemistry. The positive rates of CK19,HBME-1,and Gal-3 by rapid immunohistochemistry in frozen sections were: 0 (0/28),10.7 ％ (3/28),0 (0/28),respectively,for benign lesions (nodular goiter,Hashimoto thyroiditis,thyroid adenoma); and 94.9 ％(37/39),92.3 ％ (36/39),92.3 ％ (36/39),respectively,for PTC.The expression of three markers between thyroid benign lesions and PTC had a significant difference (x2 =59.326,55.861,44.605,all P ＜ 0.001).In benign lesions,the rate of same case with two and more positive markers was 0,while in PTC it was 100 ％ and significantly different (x2 =67.000,P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionMaxVision one-step rapid immunohistochemical staining technique could be applied in intraoperative frozen section diagnosis.Detecting CK19,HBME-1,and Gal-3 expression in intraoperative frozen section has an auxiliary value for diagnosis of PTC.

OBJECTIVETo observe the regulatory effects of electroacupuncture with different acupoints combinations on blood lipid and atherosclerosis index (AI) in rats with hyperlipemia, so as to make a preliminary screening for the optimal acupoints combination for hyperlipemia.

METHODSOne hundred and five clean-grade SD male rats were randomly divided into 9 groups, including a normal group, a model group, a Quchi group, a Zhongwan group, a Fenglong group, a Quchi+Zhongwan group, a Quchi+Fenglong group, a Zhongwan+Fenglong group and a Quchi+Zhongwan+Fenglong group (three acupoints group), 17 rats in the normal group and 11 rats in the rest groups. The normal group was fed with normal diet, while the rest groups were fed with high-fat diet for 3 weeks to prepare the hyperlipemia model. All the rats were given unlimited water. After the establishment of model, the normal group was fed freely without any treatment; the model group was bundled and immobilized everyday; the rest groups were bundled, immobilized and treated with electroacupuncture at corresponding acupoints with disperse-dense wave, 20 min per time, once a day. After 4 weeks, the blood examples were collected from abdominal aorta to measure the total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), and analyzed the AI in each group.

RESULTSAfter the treatment, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C and AI in each acupuncture group were all lower than those in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with single acupoint group and the Quchi+Zhongwan group, the content of TC in the three acupoints group was lower (P<0.01). The differences of content of TG among each acupuncture group were not significant (all P>0.05). Compared with the rest 6 acupuncture groups, the content of HDL-C and AI in the three acupoints group were significantly different (all P<0.05). The content of LDL-C in the three acupoints group was decreased as compared with the Quchi group and the Zhong-wan group.

CONCLUSIONThe electroacupuncture at "Quchi" (LI 11), "Zhongwan" (CV 12) and "Fenglong" (ST 40) has more advantages on regulating the content of HDL-C and LDL-C as well as improving AI in hyperlipemia rats, and it has superior effects on blood lipid metabolism.
