Epidemic investigation was made in 2080 diabetic cases in Henan Province. Results showed that TCM Xiaoke syndrome is not only related to the pathological changes of the Lung in Upper - jiao, Spleen -stomachin middle - jiao and kidney in lower - jiao, but also closely related to pathological changes of the liver. During the early stage when mild hyperglycemia is present, the manifestations of deficient liver ( of liver blood and liver Yin) are especially conspicuous with a frequency of occurrence only less than Qi -deficiency syndrome. This important new discovery reminds us that " liver" is not to be overlooked clinically. It also proves that application of nourishing, softening, converging, and soothing the liver are reasonable and scientific methods for diabetes treatment.

[Objective] To design anatomical steel plate for internal fixation of scapular neck fracmre.[Method]By observing the scapular structure and scapular fracture type,imaging a form of anatomical steel plate for internal fixation of scapular neck fracture,the needed relative measurement datum of scapula were obtained.Forty pairs of scapular spechnens of men and women were measured,relative datum were obtained.Based on the measurement,scapular neck fracture plate was designed.The steel plates were applied in patients with scapular neck fracture or scapular body fracture,patients were followed up after operations,the results were observed.[Result]Seven patients with scapular neck fracture or scapular body fracture were operated with the anatomical steel plates,the steel plates were obedient to the scapulas greatly,the fixations were strong,the operations were easy,the time of operations were short,seven patients were followed up for 12-18 months showing satisfactory results.[Conclusion]The design of anatomical scapular neck fracture steel plates is satisfactory,when using tile plate to fix scapular neck fracture.The fixation is strong,using the steel plate can be benificial to patient's early exercise.It has advantages of preventing complications,promoting fracture to heal,making the scapular operation easy,shortening the time of operation,lessening the blood in operation.This type of anatomical steel plate has the value to be popularized.

Objective To study and to analyse the cause of laparoscopic adrenalectomy failure and its complications. Methods 8 of 19 laparoscopic adrenalectomies were converted to open surgery .The cause of failure and its complications were analysed. Results The causes to convert to open surgery were:bleeding of right middle suprarenal vein in 1,adrenal tumor was sheltered of cauda pancreatis in 1,left adrenal cyst was sheltered by spleen in 1,CO 2 pneumoperitoneal pressure can not be maintained during the procedure in 2,tumers could not be found in 2,the telescopic port was inserted into musculus psoas major in the retroperitoneal approach and the bleeding influenced the operation field in 1.3 patients had high fever after operations and 1 had an abscess in the adrenal bed.Reactive pleuritis occurred in 1. Conclusions Fine technique and experiences were needed for laparoscopic procedures and good team work between the operators was very important.Complications were often associated with the initial cause that led to the laparacospic adrenalectomy failure.Laparoscopic adrenalectomy via the retroperitoneal approach has been easier than that via the transperitoneal approach.

Objective To study the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of implantation metastasis to abdominal incision after open operation for bladder carcinoma. Methods 10 cases of implantation metastasis to abdominal incision after open operation for bladder carcinoma encountered from 1985 to 1999 were retrospectively studied,nine being male and 1 female.The average age was 52.7 years. Results These were 6 transitional cell carcinoma (all were grade G 3),2 transitional cell carcinoma with squamous carcinoma or adenocarcinoma,1 squamous carcinoma,and 1 adenocarcinoma.The diameter of the metastasis lesion was 1.4～11.5 cm?1.0～6.9 cm.The treatments included total cystectomy with resection of metastasis,TURBt with resection of metastasis,urinary diversion with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, resection of metastasis with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, and chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy alone.7 of the 10 died of the carcinoma,the survival times being 4～41 months (average 13 months).Only 1 patient survived for 41 months.Whereas the others died within 14 months.3 patients are still alive for 5～9 months with no recurrence. Conclusions The differentiation of the cancer cells of implantation metastasis is usually bad and often accompanied by squamous followed by carcinoma or adenocarcinoma.Total cystectomy with resection of the metastasis followed by chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy might prolong the survival time, but the prognosis is usually poor.

Objective To examine the efficacy and safety of Urocalun in treatment of calculus in ureter. Methods Sixty patients with calculus in the ureter were treated.The diameters of the stones were less than 1 cm.The patients were assigned to receive Urocalun orally,450 mg each time,3 times a day. Results Five weeks after Urocalun administration,the calculi were eliminated in 45 cases (75%).The calculi descended in 10 cases (17%).The positions of calculi remained unchanged in the rest 5 cases (8%).Four patients (7%) had mild uncomfortableness in stomach,nausea or thirsty after Urocalun administration. Conclusions Urocalun is effective for eliminating the calculus in ureters.

Objective:To study the prevention methods of radiation caries for the patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma receiving radiotherapy. Methods:Seventy-five patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma received dental check and treatment before radiotherapy. They also received the instructions on preventive oral hygiene. After radiotherapy, the patients were followed up.Results:Fifty patients were followed up for 1-3 years. Radiation caries was observed in 4 cases with poor oral hygiene habit. Conclusion:A comprehensive regime of dental care can prevent radiation caries effectively.

Objective: To study the quality of life (QOL) and its influencing factors of elderly hospitalized terminal patients. Methods: The scale of Life Quality, Social Support Inventory, Life Satisfaction Index A(LSIA), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HAD), degree of pain (Verbal Report Scale, VRS) and Activities of Daily Living(ADL) were administered in 152 elderly hospitalized terminal patients. Results: 1)The total score of each scale was QOL 36.9?7.4, ADL56.27?34.5,Social Support 40.0?6.3, HAD(A)8.9?4.1,HAD(D)11.2?4.9,LSIA 11.6?3.9?2)Pearson's correlation showed that QOL scores were negatively correlated with degree of pain (r=-0.54,P

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of ginger-partitioned moxibustion in improving blood flow velocity in lower limbs of post-stroke patients.Methods Ninety post-stroke patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 45 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by ginger-partitioned moxibustion, while the control group was by conventional acupuncture. Before and after intervention, the blood flow velocity in lower limbs, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) were evaluated.Results After 4-week treatment, the maximum blood flow velocity (Vmax) was significantly changed in the treatment group (P<0.05), and there was a significant difference in comparing the Vmax between the two groups after intervention (P<0.05); the NIHSS and MBI scores were significantly changed after intervention in the treatment group (P<0.05), and there was a significant difference in comparing MBI score between the two groups after intervention (P<0.05).Conclusions Ginger-partitioned moxibustion can accelerate the blood flow velocity in lower limbs of the post-stroke patients, improve blood circulation and the activities of life.

Objective To detect estrogen receptor and DNA index in breast cancer by flow cytometry. Methods 32 cases of fresh specimens of breast cancer resected by operation were used in this study. Single cells suspension was prepared from those specimens, and estrogen receptor expression was analyzed by flow cytometry. At the same time, the status of ploid and S phase cell ratio were determined. Results Flow cytometry analysis could measure the expression level of estrogen receptor in the fresh breast cancer specimens, which was more sensitive and needed less volume of tumor tissue compared with immuohistochemical method. The information on the status of ploid and S phase cell ratio were simultaneously obtained. Conclusion The detection of estrogen receptor in breast cancers by flow cytometry was more helpful for evaluating prognosis and selecting treatment.
