Objective:To observe the effect and the underlying mechanism of wild chrysanthemum eye drops in the treatment of rabbit evaporative dry eye. Methods:The dry eye model was established by cauterizing the meibomian gland orifices in sixteen New Zealand white rabbits. In the sixth week after the operation, they were divided into four groups treated by wild chrysanthemum eye drops, dextran and hypromellose eye drops, solvent control solution and physiological saline, respectively. Corneal fluorescence stai-ning, rose bengal staining and conjunctival goblet cell density were performed and detected before and after the operation. Results:Be-fore the treatment, no significant difference was found in the tested indices among the four groups (P>0. 05). After the treatment, the fluorescence staining and rose bengal staining in wild chrysanthemum eye drops group were lighter than those in the untreated groups, and the conjunctival goblet cell density was higher than that in the untreated groups(P<0. 05). The difference was not statistically sig-nificant among dextran and hypromellose eye drops, solvent control group and blank control group (P>0.05). Conclusion: Wild chrysanthemum eye drops can alleviate ocular surface inflammation of dry eye in rabbits, which suggests good application prospect in the treatment of dry eye.

Objective To analyze, treatment of ipsilateral Pilon and calcaneal fractures (IPCF). Methods Injury causes included fallings in seven patients, traffic injury in two and impact injury in one, with ISS score of 5-22 points. There were seven patients with open injuries and 3 with close ones. Nine pa-tients had Ⅱ-Ⅲ degree of Pilon fractures according to the AO/OTA classification and six comminuted com-pression calcaneal fractures according to the Essex-Loprest classification. The Pilon fractures were fixed by cannulated nail, screw or Kirschner wire through open reduction in six patients including four fixed with ex-ternal fixators (the calcaneal fractures were fixed with percutaneous eannulated nail or Kirschner wire by poking reduction). The calcaneal fractures were fixed with only Kirschner wire through poking reduction in two patients and double fractures treated conservatively in two. Results The reduction of Pilon and cal-caneal fractures treated by operation were markedly improved in six patients, while there occurred angular deformity and joint surface introeession in the patients treated conservatively. The wound healing of soft tis-sue was sound in seven patients but unsatisfactory in the other three. The ankle-hind foot score was 82-94 points in four patients who were followed up. Conclusions IPCF is caused by the high energy force and characterized by severe injures of the soft tissues and the bone tissues at the distal tibia and calcaneua, for which limited internal fixation plus external fixation are suitable treatment choice.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of external bracket fixation in the treat- ment of complex tibia diaphysis fracture involving intra-articular fractures.Methods Forty-two cases of complex tibia diaphysis fracture with proximal and distal intra-articular fractures treated surgically in our hospital from January 1999 to January 2004 were analyzed.The complex tibia diaphysis fractures were categorized according to the AO classification as type C2 (multiple segments fracture) and type C3 (ir- regular fracture),proximal and distal intra-articular fractures in 23 and 19 cases,respectively.Definite operation was done within one week.Twenty-two cases were treated with simple external fixator,and 20 cases treated with screws and external fixator.Results All the 42 cases were followed-up regularly. According to AO evaluation of the knee and ankle joint movement,83% (35/42 cases) of the cases gained satisfactory functional outcome,14% (6/42 cases) had quite satisfactory results and 2% (1/42 case) had unsatisfactory functional outcome.Conclusion External bracket fixation can obtain outcome of relative length of the tibia and fibula,tube structure reconstruction,smoothness of the articular surface and the parallel and symmetric relation of knees and ankles for complex tibia diaphysis fracture with proxi- mal and distal intra-articular fracture.The arthritis resulting in pain in movement and restriction of func- tion is considered to be the most important factor affecting the joint function.Early functional exercise is important for best recovery of knee and ankle function.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of acupoint sticking combined traditional Chinese medicine foot bath for the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Methods According to the random table method, 91 CFS patients were divided into control group (n=45) and the research group (n=46). The patients in the control group were treated with western medicine and acupoint application, while the patients in the research group were treated with Chinese medicine foot bath on the basis of control group. Two groups of patients were treated for 30 consecutive days. The clinical total effective rate of two groups of patients after treatment was assessed. The Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale (PSQI), BELL's chronic fatigue syndrome integral table and fatigue rating scale (FS-14) were determined respectively before and after treatment, at the same time, the levels of serum interleukin IL-1β, IL-6, IL-2 and interferon IFN-λ were detected respectively before and after treatment. In addition, the adverse reactionincidence and recurrence rate of two groups of patients were observed Results The total effective rate of research group was 91.3% (42/46), whilethe total effective rate of control group was 71.1% (32/45). The difference between two groups was statistically significant(χ 2=6.106,P=0.014).After treatment,the PSQI(3.65 ±0.71 vs.4.77 ±0.62,t=-8.008),FS-14(6.16 ±1.52 vs.8.03 ± 1.43,t=-6.042),IL-1β(3.28 ± 0.63 pg/ml vs.(6.86 ± 1.14)pg/ml,t=-18.595)] and IL-6 (20.03 ± 5.79 pg/ml vs. 24.85 ± 6.88 pg/ml, t=-3.619) of research group were significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05), while the BELL's (66.71 ± 12.79 vs.50.62 ± 10.22,t=-6.621), IL-2 (32.96 ± 6.57 pg/ml vs.26.78 ± 6.01 pg/ml, t=4.679)and IFN-λ(36.27 ± 6.71 pg/ml vs.25.63 ± 5.89 pg/mL,t=8.032)of research group were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). No serious adverse reactions occurred during the treatment of both groups. The recurrence rate of control group was 25.0% (8/32), which was significantly higher than the research group of 7.1% (3/42) (χ2=4.576, P=0.032). Conclusions The clinical curative effect of acupoint sticking combined Chinese medicine foot bath on the treatment for CFS is significantly, which can significantly improve the patient's quality of sleep and fatigue index, at the same time improve the serum level of inflammatory factors.
