For the minimized phase transtorming risk, the most stable polymorph is generally considered as the desirable solid form for pharmaceutical applications. However, occasionally, the stable form may have some shortcomings such as low solubility, dissolution rate and bioavailability, etc. In that case, the metastable form which is kinetically stable at room or lower temperature could be selected. Using metastable form may result in polymorph transformation in pharmaceutical manufacture and storage. Hence, the knowledge of the transformation between solid forms is essential to the development of the drug materials. In this paper, we will review the recent studies in the area of crystal conversion of polymorphs and hydrates, to illustrate some cases to introduce the types, conditions and mechanisms of the crystalline solid transformation.

Objective To explore MRI features of spinal canal enterogenous cysts.Methods The MRI features and differential diagnosis of 5 patients with spinal canal enterogenous cysts proved by surgery and pathology were reviewed retrospectively in combination with literature review.Results Of 5 cases,the cysts localized at cervical spine in 2,lumbar spine in 1,lumbosacral spine in 1 and the end of coccyx between rectum and cuticulum in 1.4 cysts were located at subdura,including anterior to the spinal cord in 3 and posterior to the spinal cord in 1.1 cyst located the end of coccyx between rectum and cuticulum was uncommunicated with spinal canal and 1 case associated with diastematomyelia.The spinal cords were compressed and displaced.The cysts were iso or slightly hyperintensity compared to CSF on T1WI,and similar intensity to CSF on T2WI.The cysts had no markedly enhancement on contrast-enhanced MR scan.Conclusion MRI has important value in diagnosing spinal enterogenous cysts.

Objective To observe the effect of combined therapy of external point application and herbal concentrate-granules on patients with asthma (hot wheezing in TCM).Methods 60 patients suffering from onset period of bronchial asthma were randomized to a control group and a treatment group.The control group was given budesonide inhaler and theophylline sustained release tablets.The treatment group was given combined therapy of external point application and herbal concentrate-granules.The course of treatment was 10 days.To observe the value ofFEV1％,ACT scores and TCM syndrome scores etc.Results After treatment,the value of FEV 1％ [treatment group:(82.83 ± 11.35) ％,control group:(83.85 ± 16.72) ％] and ACT [treatment group:(19.86±2.32),control group:(19.66±2.54)] in both groups were markedly increased with statistical significance (P＜0.01); and the difference between the two groups were also significant; TCM syndrome scoring [treatment group:(4.27±3.65),control group:(5.05±4.14)] was notably decreased in both groups compared with the values before the treatment with statistical significance (P＜0.01); but the difference between the two groups was not significant (P＞0.05).Conclusion The combined therapy of external point application and herbal concentrate-granules can treat bronchial asthma in the acute clinical course and improve lung function.

Event-related potentials (ERP) is pertinent to medical research and clinical diagnosis. Estimation of single event-related potentials (sERP) is the objective of ERP processing. A new technique, adaptive moving averaging ba sed method for estimation of sERP, is presented. After analysis of the properties of background noise by crossingzero, the window length of moving averaging is adapt ively set according to the maximum width of the impulse noise for each recorded raw data. The experiments are made with real recorded data and the results demon strate that the performance of sERP estimation is excellent. So the method propo sed is suitable to sERP processing.

Objective　To investigate the relationship betwee n tricuspid insufficiency (TI) and the function of the right ventricle, degree o f pulmonary vascular pathological change in patients with rheumatic heart diseas e so as to provide the indication of operation for treating TI. Methods 　41 cases of rheumatic heart disease with TI accompanying with bicuspid pathological changes were reviewed. Correlation analysis was done between the s everity of TI and the right ventricular size(RVS), pulmonary artery pressure(PAP ), pulmonary artery resistance(PAR) etc. Results　It was found t hat the size of the right ventricle, PAP, PAR were positively correlated to th e degree of TI. Tricuspid annuloplasty should be carried out in patients with RV D>40 mm, PAR >48 kPa*s/L, PAP>8 kPa. Conclusion　TI resulted ma inly from insufficient function of the right ventricle and marked patholog ical changes of the pulmonary blood vessels. Doppler echocardiography evaluation for the function of right ventricle and pathological condition of pulmonary blo od vessels might be of significant in deciding whether tricuspid annuloplasty sh ould be performed simutaneously in patients of bicuspid valve replacement.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of composite sequential bypass in treatment of chronic lower extremity ischemia.Methods The clinical data of 25 patients with chronic lower limb ischemia who underwent composite sequential bypass reconstruction,in a 3-year period,were retropectively analyzed.The composite vessel consisted of PTFE vassular prosthesis and autologous vein.The proximal end of PTFE was anastomosed to the common femoral artery,and the distal end to the isolated popliteal artery.The autologous vein exited from the lower end of PTFE vessel and was anastomosed to the tibial or peroneal artery in the leg.Results The venous reconstructions had the inflow taken from the distal PTFE artery(above knee in 5 and below knee in 20).The outflow involved the peroneal artery in 12(48%),the posterior tibial artery in 8(32%),and the anterior tibial artery in 5(20%).Primary patency,secondary patency and limb salvage were 61%,68% and 73% at 3 year,respectively.Conclusions Composite sequential reconstruction using an isolated popliteal segment as supporting point for the distal reconstruction has high long-term patency rate and good effect of limb savage,it is an acceptable option in patients presenting with serious limb ischemia without enough venous conduit for distal bypass.

Objective This study was purposed to analyze and summarize the vein temporary cardiac pacing therapy in patients with acute inferior wall myocardial infarction complicated by high degree atrioventricular block (AVB) . Methods One hundred and twelve patients with acute inferior wall myocardial infarction complicated by high degree AVB were selected as observation and research subjects, and they were treated by vein temporary cardiac pacing therapy. The safety, availability of different kinds of this surgical methods and the relationship between these surgical methods and complication were observed. Results Three out of 60 patients who were treated by ordinary temporary pacing electrode catheter were suffering from cardiac tamponade. No serious complications occurred when 52 patients were treated by floating temporary pacing electrode catheter. Conclusion Floating temporary pacing electrode catheter have already proved safe and effective in the treatment of acute inferior wall myocardial infarction complicated by AVB, and it could decrease the incidence of serious complications such as myocardial perforation.
