Forty cases of type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus were treated by puncturing point Neiguan (PC 6), and the effect on their cardiac vegetative nerve functions were observed at 20 min, 40 min and 60 min after acupuncture respectively. The findings showed that all heart rate variables improved remarkably at the three time periods after acupuncture treatment, with significant differences (P＜0.01); but there was no significant difference in the curative effects among the three time periods.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of microwave tissue coagulation assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy for the treatment of hepatic tumors.Methods 29 patients underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy using microwave liver tissue coagulation from December 2011 to June 2014 in the General Air Force Hospital.All patients underwent intraoperative ultrasound guided microwave coagulation assisted laparoscopic local hepatectomy.Intraoperative blood loss,operation time,postoperative hospital stay and complications were observed.Results All the operations were successfully performed without conversion to open surgery.There were 18 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),2 cases of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,2 cases of hepatic metastases from the rectal carcinoma,5 cases of hepatic hemangioma,1 case of hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia and 1 case of hepatic cystadenoma.Drainage tubes were placed in 3 patients and removed 5-7 d after the operation.The operation time was 150 (125-210) miu,the median amount of intraoperative bleeding was 120 (30-250) ml,the postoperative hospital stay was 7 (5-10) d.All patients recovered well after the operation and no complications such as intraabdominal bleeding and bile leakage were observed.The cutting edges of liver cancer of these 22 cases were negative.The postoperative follow-up time of these 22 cases were 3-36 months and no tumor recurrence and metastasis were observed.Conclusions Laparoscopic liver resection using intraoperative ultrasound guided microwave hepatic tissue coagulation can effectively control the bleeding,improve the safety of laparoscopic liver resection,which makes it a safe and effective minimally invasive technique.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effectiveness of manual therapy and traction for lumbar disc herniation and analyze the current status of this kind of randomized clinical trial (RCT).

METHODSDatabase of CNKI, VIP, WANFANG, PubMed and OVID were searched. Some relevant journals were manually retrieved. A total of 2 874 literatures on manual therapy and traction for lumbar disc herniation were collected, of which 17 articles met the inclusion criteria. The Jadad score scale was used to evaluate the quality,and RevMan5.0 was used for meta-analysis of literatures.

RESULTSThe results of the meta-analysis of all trials involved were as followed:the combined effect of the effective rate was RR = 1.10, 95% CI [1.06, 1.14], the combined effect of the cure rate was RR = 1.36, 95% CI [1.21,1.52], the combined effect of the VAS was RR = 1.37, 95% CI [1.28, 1.45], the combined effect of the JOA was RR = 4.75, 95% CI [4.40, 5.09].

CONCLUSIONThe overall quality of the current RCT researches about manual therapy for lumbar disc herniation was lower,and did not support the conclusion that manual therapy was more effective than traction for lumbar disc herniation.

Objective:To investigate the surgical indication and effect of surgical treatment for giant cavernous hemangioma of the liver(LHG).Methods:The clinical data,including selection of operations,management for severe operative bleeding and postoperative supplementary treatment,of 15 patients with giant LHG treated by surgical measures from 2003 in our hospital were summarized and assessed.Results:Nine cases accepted decollement of LHG,and the recovery courses were all right,6 cases accepted embolization of hepatic artery,in which 2 cases accepted operation afterward.Conclusions:Decollement or embolization of hepatic artery were effective in the treatment of giant cavernous hemangioma.

Objective To observe the expression of cardiotrophin-1(CT-1) in ischemia-reinfusion cardiac muscle of rats and the effect of neuregulin-1(NRG-1).Methods The model of ischemia-reinfusion cardiac muscle of rats were prepared,35 rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:model group(n=8),NRG-1 pretreatment group(n=9),pseudo-surgery group(n=8) and normal control group(n=10).The CT-1 mRNA in the observed cardiac muscle of all groups was measured by RT-PCR and the relative amount of CT-1 mRNA were calculated,and for statistical treatment.Results The CT-1 mRNA of model group was(63.96?9.34),and it was higher than that of pseudo-surgery group(36.16?5.43)and normal control group(36.84?4.64).The significant differences were found in 3 groups(F=47.37 P

The present paper outlined pesticide registration status for traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) and summarized the characteristics of pesticide contamination in different regions of some widely used TCMs by retrieving last 10 years' literatures. At present, the problems of pesticide residues for TCM include less pesticide registrations, widespread high-residue organochlorine pesticides contamination, pesticide abuse, irregular GAP bases and imperfect pesticide limit standards, etc. According to the current situation, we should adopt some control measures to strengthen the quality control of TCMs so as to ensure the safety of TCMs and related products.

OBJECTIVETo compare the intervention effects of four traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) with typical cold or hot property on body temperature and temperature-sensitive transient receptor potential ion channel proteins (TRPs) of rats with yeast-induced fever.

METHODThe pyrexia model was induced by injecting yeast suspension subcutaneously. Totally 108 male SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group, the model group, the Rhei Radix et Rhizoma treated group, the Coptidis Rhizoma treated group, the Euodiae Fructus treated group, and the Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma treated group, with 18 rats in each group. At the 4 h, 8 h and 12 h after injection of yeast, the rats were sacrificed to collect their hypothalamus and dorsal root ganglion. The expressions of TRPV1 and TRPM8 were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot method.

RESULTCompared with the normal group, after injection of yeast, the temperature of rats in the model group notably increased, and reached the peak at 8 h (P < 0.01). The TRPV1 level in hypothalamus and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of the model group significantly increased, whereas the TRPM8 level significantly reduced. Compared with the model group, the Rhei Radix et Rhizoma group and the Coptidis Rhizoma group showed significant decrease in the high body temperature of rats caused by yeast, down-regulation in the expression of TRPV1, and up-regulation in the expression of TRPM8 (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Euodiae Fructus and Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma had no significant effect on either temperature or TRPs of fever rats.

CONCLUSIONRhei Radix et Rhizoma and Coptidis Rhizoma, both are TCMs with cold property, can reduce the temperature of fever rats induced by yeast, which may be related to their effective regulation of TRPV1 and TRPM8 in hypothalamus and DRG, while Euodiae Fructus and Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma had no relevant effect.
