Objective:To observe effects of Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe on blood growth hormone (GH) and insulin growth factor(IGF-1) in chronic renal failure(CRF) rats.Methods:Platt method was adopted to make 5/6 kidney excision CRF model rat,and the rats were divided into model group,Huangqi group,Enalapril group,Danshen group,Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe group and normal control group according to the blood creatinine level after modeling.Effects of Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe on GH and IGF-1 levels in CRF rats with large quantity of urinal protein were investigated.Results:GH and IGF-1 levels in the model control group were significantly higher than that in normal control group,and after treatment of Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe,blood GH and IGF-1 levels were significantly decreased.Conclusion:Fuzheng Huoxue Recipe can decrease blood GH and IGF-1 levels in CRF rats,and can delay advances of CRF.

AIM: To compare the effect of treating cataract by sodium hyaluronate injection and lens - loop nucleus extraction of small incision cataract excision and explore more suitable method to promote the use of surgery in primary hospital.
METHODS: All 146 cataract patients ( 166 eyes ) were allocated to two groups in random: the control group 78 patients ( 84 eyes ) received conventional lens loop for extracapsular cataract extraction;the experiment group 68 patients (82 eyes) underwent nucleus extraction in small incision with sodium hyaluronate injection for extracapsular cataract extraction. Postoperative visual acuity and intraoperative and postoperative complications were compared between two groups.
RESULTS: Incidence of posterior capsule rupture difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05) in small incision nucleus extraction with sodium hyaluronate injection compared with conventional lens loop for extracapsular cataract extraction. And there was no significant difference ( P> 0. 05 ) in postoperative visual acuity, astigmatism degree and postoperative complications compared with those of pre-operation.
CONCLUSION: Compared with the lens loop nucleus extraction, sodium hyaluronate injection for extracapsular cataract extraction can effectively protect the posterior lens capsule and can be promoted in small incision cataract surgery.

Objective: To establish a GC method for the determination of resorcinol, borneol, glycerol and DMSO in compound fluocinonide tincture.Methods: The analysis was performed on an HP-INNOWax column (30.0 m×0.32 mm,0.25 μm).The inlet temperature was 280℃ and the detector temperature was 290℃.The split ratio was 10∶1.With nitrogen as the carrier gas, the flow rate was 2.0 ml·min-1.The temperature was as follows: the initial temperature was maintained at 100℃ for 5 min and raised to 240℃ at a rate of 20℃·min-1, and maintaining for 8 min.The flow rate of hydrogen, air and tail blows was 35, 350 and 25 ml·min-1, respectively.Chennai was used as the internal standard.Results: The concentrations of DMSO, resorcinol, borneol and glycerol were within the range of 99.20-793.60 μg·ml-1 (r=0.999 9), 507.25-4 058.00 μg·ml-1 ,respectively(r=0.999 9), 102.20-817.60 μg·ml-1 (r=1.000 0) and 316.20-2529.60 μg·ml-1 (r=1.000 0) with a good linear relationship.The average recovery was 98.58%, 98.34%, 98.19% and 102.29%, and RSDs were 3.80%, 3.93%, 2.87% and 3.65% (n=9), respectively.Conclusion: The method is simple, accurate and reliable, and can be used for the quality control of DMSO, resorcinol, borneol and glycerol in compound fluocinonide tincture.

Objective To study the impact of pregnancy on differentiated thyroid cancer. Methods Retrospective comparative analysis were made between pregnancy-related thyroid cancer patients ( including nine months before delivery and one year after delivery) and the age-matched non-pregnancy-related thyroid cancer patients treated in the Department of head and neck, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center. Results There were 125 cases of pregnancy-related thyroid cancer patients from 1998 to 2008, including 28 cases (22.4%) of neck recurrence and metastasis after the surgery of thyroid cancer, meanwhile there were 691 cases of the agematched non-pregnancy thyroid cancer patients, including 90 cases ( 13% ) of neck recurrence and metastasis after the surgery of thyroid cancer. The rate of neck recurrence and metastasis after the surgery of thyroid cancer in the pregnancy-related group was higher than that in the non-pregnancy related group ( P ＜ 0.05). The maximum diameter of tumor in the pregnancy-related group and the non-pregnancy group is 2. 1 cm and 2.6cm respectively.There were 19 cases of multi-focal cancer ( 19.6% ) in the pregnancy-related group and 58 cases (9. 6% ) in the non-pregnant group, P ＜0.05. There were 23 patients (23.7%) of extrathyroid invasion in the pregnancy-related group and 65 patients ( 10.8% ) in the non-pregnant group, P ＜0.05. There were 67 cases (53.6%) and 35 cases (28%) of the central and lateral cervical lymph node metastasis in the pregnancy-related group respectively and 296 cases (42.8%) and 117 cases (16. 9% )in the non-pregnant group, P ＜0.05. There were 19 cases (15.2%) of extralymph invasion in the pregnancy-related group and 32 cases (4.6%) in the non-pregnant group, P ＜ 0.05. Conclusions The incidence of Extrathyroid invasion, multi-focal cancer, cervieal lymph node metastasis and extralymph invasion of the differentiated thyroid cancer is higher in pregnancy-related patients.Pregnancy may deteriorate the prognosis of thyroid cancer. For patients after the surgery of thyroid cancer, pregnancy may increase the risk of neck recurrence and metastasis. However, pregnancy does not affect the stage of thyroid cancer and the prognosis is still good.

Objective To summarize the experience of diagnosis,treatment and clinical effects of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy embracing fixator for severe chest trauma complicated with multiple rib frac-tures.Methods From January 2009 to June 2013,the clinical data of 148 cases with embracing fixator and 47 cases with non-internal fixation were retrospectively analyzed and compared.Results Internal fix-ation was superior to non-internal fixation in hospital stay,pain perception,mechanical ventilation time, pulmonary function recovery and complications(P<0.05).Conclusion Ni-Ti shape memory alloy em-bracing fixator is better than other conservative therapies in the treatment of multiple rib fractures and it's worthy of spreading.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of different background volumes of ropivacaine in continuous tibial nerve block of postoperative analgesia after calcaneal surgery.Methods:This study was a prospective,randomized,controlled study.Sixty cases of calcaneal visual analogue scale (ASA)ⅠorⅡundergoing elective surgery were selected and randomly assigned to two groups,thirty cases in each group.The patients received popliteal fossa posterior tibial nerve block using ultrasound guided.The con-tinuous stimulation catheter was inserted after successful position and the 0.2%ropivacaine was injected. The background volumes of the A and B groups were 5 mL/h and 3.2 mL/h.The VAS score,the senso-ry block and motor block of tibial nerve and common peroneal nerve,and the satisfaction of the patients at h 12,h 24 and h 48 were recorded after catheter insertion.Results:The VAS scores at the three time points (h 12,h 24 and h 48)on the two groups of the patients were compared,and the difference was not statistically significant (P >0.05).The difference of the sensory block and the motor block of the tibial nerve at the three time points (h 12,h 24 and h 48)on the two groups of the patients were also compared,and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05).The difference of the sensory block and the motor block of common peroneal nerve at h 48 hs was statistically significant,group A was higher than the group B (P<0.05).The difference of the patient satisfaction at the three time points (h 12,h 24 and h 48)on the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05).Conclusion:The use of 0.2% ropivacaine with the background volume of 3.2 mL/h in continuous tibial nerve block can pro-vide good analgesia and reduce the incidence of the sensory block and motor block of the common perone-al nerve.
