Objective To explore the serum level of gentamycin for orally in children with serious illness.Methods The serum level of gentamycin in 41 children who were in serious illness [multiple organ dysfunction(MODS)group with 21 cases and non-MODS group with 20 cases ] were monitored and the patients were treated with select decontamination of the digestive tract(SDD) from October 2004 to April 2005.Dosage:10 mg/(kg?d),orally taken three times(every 8 hours) one day.The blood after taking the drug one hour later in the fourth day was selected and the serum level of getamycin was monitored.Results Thirty-six children of 41 cases serum level of gentamycin were negative and 5 children(4 in MODS group and 1 in non-MODS group) who had alimentary tract hemorrhage were masccline in serum after taking gentamycin one hour later in the forth day.The absorption of gentamycin from enteric after orally was not(rela)-ted to MODS.There were statistics value between the gestrintestinal tract ulcer and serum level of gentamycin.Conclusions The safety for treating the children in serious illness with gentamycin for SDD is obvious.But we suggest to monitor the serum level of gentamycin for who has severe alimentary tract hemorrhage together with insufficiency of liver and kindey.

The lacquer figure with meridian-points marked of the western Han dynasty, unearthed in Tianhui town, Jinniu district, Chengdu in 2012, has been the earliest and the most complete human figure of meridian-acupoints in China so far. There were over ten courses of meridians, and over 100 visible acupoints as well as multiple intaglio inscriptions. All of them are valuable in academic study. The writers introduced the lacquer figure un- earthed in Laoguanshan in terms of the briefs and characteristics of meridian and acupoint distributions, which give the references to the future studies.

Objective To evaluate the changes of splanchnic hemodynamics after selective decongestive devascularization shunt of gustrosplenic region (SDDS-GSR) in the treatment of patients with portal hypertension. Methods All these 41 portal hypertensive patients underwent a combination surgery including partially occlusion of the splenic artery, Warren distal splenorenal shunt and devascularization. Postoperative patients were followed-up by ultrasonography for changes of splanchnic hemodynamics. Results were compared with that of 21 healthy volunteers. Results The thickness of spleen 2 weeks and 1 year after surgery (47±8) mm, (46±8) nun decreased from preoperative (60±9) mm (P<0.01). The diameter of portal vein (1.13±0.19) cm and splenic artery (0.49±0.08) cm 2 weeks after surgery decreased (P<0.05) and that of hepatic artery (0.40±0.07) cm increased (P<0.05). Patients' preoperative portal vein blood flow volume (1716±1262) ml/min and splenic artery (1269±570) ml/min were larger than that of normal group (P<0.05), while that of hepatic artery (321±126) ml/min was significantly less than that of normal group (P<0.05). The portal blood flow (649±294) ml/min and that of splenic artery (446±254) ml/min 2 weeks after surgery decreased significantly (P<0.01). The hepatic artery blood flow (612±295) ml/min increased significantly (P<0.01). When reevaluated at 1 year the hepatic artery blood flow (401±152) ml/min was not significantly different compared with that before surgery and that in normal group (P>0.05). Conclusions There are significant alterations in hepatic and splenic hemodynamics in patients with portal hypertension, and that SDDS-GSR can partially reverse the chaos of the hepatic and splenic hemodynamics in cirrhotic portal hypertensive patients.

BACKGROUND: External preparations treatment of fractures in traditional Chinese medidne are mostly ordinary hard-paste, cream, ointment, which lack of modernized traditional Chinese medicine transdermal delivery systems, and the treatment has poor drug absorption and simple process. The treating procedure needs to be used repeatedly, which would affect fracture external fixation and lead to unsatisfactory therapeutic effect. In this Paler, the extemal treatment of traditional Chinese medidna was combined with advanced micro-nano-technology to develop a new medical complex functional materials-micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining material, which is an organic combination of diaplasis, fixation and local drug remedy, which provides a better treatment for fractures. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of micron tradifional Chinese medicine functional lining material on the healing of fracture in rabbits, METHODS: After model preparation, rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups: rabbits in the micron group were treated with micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining material plus plaster external fixation; those in the traditional Chinese medidna control group were treated with ordinary Chinese medicine functional material plus plaster extemal fixation; those in the lining material control group were treated with ordinary lining material added plaster extemal fixation; those in the natural healing control group had no special treatments. The effect of fracture healing was evaluated by X-ray at 2, 4 and 6 weeks after modeling. The serum concentration of alkaline phosphatase, calcium and phosphorus was detected respectivaly before modeling and at 2, 4 and 6 weeks after modeling. RESULTS AND CONCLISION: ①X-rap examination:After 6 weeks the external was almost copletly absorbed and medullary cavity was completely recanalizad in the micron group, while fracture line disappeared and the external callus began to be absorbed and medullary cavity was not recanalized in the traditional Chinese medidne control group. Additionally, there were case of non-union stump hardening in natural healing group. ②Serum biochemistry:The activity of alkaline phosphatase reached a peak after 2 weeks in micron group, which was 2 weeks ahead of time compared with that in traditional Chinese medicine control group. And the peak concentration of alkaline phosphatase in micron group was higher than other groups. After 4 weeks serum calcium concentration started to fall significantly and phosphorus concentration started to rise significantly in micron group, as was statistically significant compared with other groups. After 6 weeks serum calcium concentration in micron group had fallen to normal level, while that in other groups was higher than normal. And phosphorus concentration in micron group increased significantly, which was statistically significant compared with natural healing group. The results demonstrated that micron feature traditional Chinese medicine lining matedat can enhance the activity of alkaline phosphatase, decrease the serum concentration of calcium and increase the serum concentration of phosphorus and the product of calcium and phosphorus, therefore, promote the healing of fracture, It shows that micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining matedal plays a stronger effect on promoting the healing of fracture than that of ordinary Chinese medicine functional lining material.

Facing current situation of integrative medicine (IM), authors put forward that clinical and diagnosis program of IM could be carried out from clinical path, pathogenesis, treatment theory and philosophy, and so on, but with different integration degrees. Meanwhile, formulation of concrete program should be disease-targetedly set up, and adjusted from person to person, from place to place, from time to time. As for settled IM program , authors could evaluate it from whether Chinese medicine and Western medicine have formed complementary, synergistic, excitatory actions, and toxicity attenuation; whether more problems could be solved in efficacy, safety, practicability, and economy than previous single mode.
