Objective To explore the effect of ginkgo biloba injection combined with alprostadil to hearing recovery,immunoglobulin level and hemorheology indexes of patients with sudden deafness.Methods 82 cases of sudden deafness patients collected in the first affiliated hospital of Wenzhou medical university from September 2015 to July 2014 were divided into control group(n=41) and experimental group(n=41) according to the random number table method.Control group were treated with 10μg alprostadil injection, added to 100 mL 0.9% saline infusion, intravenous drip, one time per day.Experimental group was given ginkgo biloba injection 20 mL, added to 500 mL 5% glucose intravenous drip on the basis of control group, one time per day.The clinical curative effect and hearing degree of recovery of two groups were observed after two weeks.Serum immunoglobulin A ( IgA ) , immunoglobulin G( IgG) , immunoglobulin M( IgM) levels were tested by automatic biochemical analyzer.The whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, red cell pressure product and red cell aggregation index were tested by blood viscosity analyzer.Results Two weeks after treatment, the total effective rate of experimental group was 92.68%, higher than 70.73% of the control group(χ2 =6.609,P=0.010).The tinnitus, aural fullness, vertigo and hearing recovery in experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the pure tone hearing threshold in experimental group was lower than the control group(P <0.05).After treatment, serum IgA, IgG and IgM levels were all decreased, and those indexes of experimental group were all significantly lower than those of control group(P<0.05).The whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, red blood cell hematocrit and red blood cell aggregation index were decreased, and those indexes of experimental group were all significantly lower than that of the control group( P <0.05).Conclusion The therapy of ginkgo biloba injection combined with alprostadil can reduce the tone of sudden deafness hearing threshold, promote the recovery of hearing, decreased in patients with immune globulin protein and hemorheology indexes, and improve clinical curative effect.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the efficacy of combined modality therapy for advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma in order to improve the curative effect of hypopharyngeal carcinoma.
METHOD:
Seventy-six male patients with the stage III - IV hypopharyngeal carcinoma were treated with postoperative combined modality. Of all the 76 cases, 44 were treated with postoperative radiotherapy, and the other 32 treated with chemoradiotherapy concurrently.
RESULT:
Kaplan Meier analysis indicated that the overall 5 survival rates of patients treated with postoperative radiotherapy was 25.9%, and that of patients treated with postoperative chemoradiotherapy was 27.8%. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Three and five years relapse-free survival rates of the patients treated with postoperative radiotherapy were 36.0%, 22.5%, and those of the patients treated with postoperative chemoradiotherapy were 68.0%, 45.3%. Significant difference was calculated between the two groups (P<0.05). According to the NCI CTC3.0 criteria, the toxicities on grade 3 or above of the two groups showed no significant difference (P>0.05).
CONCLUSION
For advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma, postoperative chemoradiotherapy yielded satisfactory relapse free survival and laryngeal function preservation rate which was superior to that of postoperative radiotherapy. Also the treatment toxicities were not increased.
