Objective To observe the clinical effect of point-to-point acupuncture with electric stimulation of direct current induction for facial nerve paralysis. Methods A total of 65 patients with facial nerve paralysis were randomly divided into the observation group (n=33) and the control group (n=32). The control group received routine treatment, and observation group was received Dicang (ST4)-to-Jiache (ST6) and Yangbai (GB14)-to-Taiyang (EX-HN5) by acupuncture with electric stimulation of direct current induction combined with conventional western medicine. The treatment of both groups last 3 weeks. The House-Brackmann Scale and the BR indexe at baseline and after 3 weeks treatment were observed. Results After treatment, The clinical effect of observation group was 66.7%, which was significantly higher than control group 43.8% (U=2.175, P=0.013). After treatment, House-Brackmann facial nerve scale (Ⅰ level=15 cases, Ⅱ level=4 cases, Ⅲ level=3 cases) in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group (Ⅰ level=5 cases, Ⅱ level=7 cases, Ⅲ level=2 cases; U=2.069, P=0.018). After treatment, R1 latency (12.28 ± 2.55 ms vs. 13.84 ± 3.07 ms, t=2.227) and R2 latency (32.28 ± 7.08 ms vs. 35.95 ± 5.11 ms, t=2.396) in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group (P=0.030, P=0.020). Conclusions The point-to-point acupuncture with electric stimulation of direct current induction could reduce latency of R1 and R2 for facial nerve paralysis, and improve the clinical effect.

Objective: To investigate the impairment status of vestibular and limb peripheral nerve of patients with auditory neuropathy, improve the understanding of auditory neuropathy in general. Method: Vestibular function tests and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) examinatoin were performed on 28 young patients with auditory neuropathy which confirmed by clinical auditory tests diagnosis from March 1999 to November 2000. There were 14 males and 14 females, ranging in age from 22 to 28 years old. Results: Vestibular dysfunction was encountered in 22 of 28 (78.57%) suffering from auditory neuropathy. Limb peripheral nerve impairment was found in 11 of 28 patients (39.29%) of auditory neuropathy. The caloric responses were normal symmetric responses in 6 of 28 (21.43%,6/28), and weaken bilaterally in 20 of 28 (71.43%,20/28)respectively. On the NCV examination, both motor conduction velocity (MVC) and sensory conduction velocity (SCV) were normal in 17 (60.71%,17/28), abnormal in 4 (14.29%,4/28). Four cases showed abnormal MCV and SCV. And pure MCV abnormality and pure SCV abnormality were found on 4 and 3 cases respectively. Conclusion: The pathological process affecting the auditory nerve may also affect the vestibular nerve and other peripheral nerve. This seemed possible in view of fact that auditory neuropathy may affect one nerve (mononeuropathy) or multiple nerves (polyneuropathy).

Objective To investigate the accuracy of the plasma DNA concentration in evaluating the prognosis in patients with sepsis.Methods One hundred and sixty patients with sepsis were enrolled as the sepsis group (group SE).Another 109 patients without sepsis hospitalized during the same period served as the control group (group C).The venous blood sample was taken on admission for determination of plasma DNA concentration by polymerase chain reaction,C reactive protein (CRP) concentration by ELISA.APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were evaluated at 24 h after admission.The 160 patients with sepsis were divided into two groups according to the result of prognosis:survival group ( n =103) and death group ( n =57).Results Compared with group C,the plasma DNA concentration,CRP concentration,APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were significantly increased in group SE (P＜0.05).Compared with survival group,the plasma DNA concentration,APACHEⅡ score and SOFA score were significantly increased in death group ( P ＜ 0.05).The areas under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the plasma DNA concentration was significantly larger than those of APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score (0.81(95％ CI,0.74-0.88) versus 0.68(95％ CI,0.60-0.77),or 0.72(95％ CI,0.63-0.82)).Conclusion The plasma DNA concentration can accurately evaluate the prognosis in patients with sepsis.As compared with the plasma CRP concentration,APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score,the plasma DNA concentration is more accurate to evaluate the prognosis in patients with sepsis.

Objective To study the risk factors for the reflux of enteral nutrition in the mechanical ventilated ( MV) patients. Methods The data of reflux in 79 MV patients fed by enteral nutrition were collected. These patients were consecutively admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the Navy General Hospital from Jan. 2009 to Dec. 2010. Patients' performance conditions,patients' body position,location of feeding tube, way of feeding,tracheotomy,drug intervention were recorded. Simple logistic regression was used to analyze all the risk factors, and statistically significant variables were selected and adopted in multivariate and unconditioned Logistic regression analysis. Results The subjects averagely aged (58.6 ± 15. 3)years old,including 44 males and 35 females;with an APACHE Ⅱ score of 18. 1 ±4.0. Univariate analysis showed that age,position,location of feeding tube,way of feeding, tracheotomy et al were all assoctied with reflux. Advanced age( >60 y) ( OR = 4.577,95% CI 1. 459 - 14. 363, P =0. 009) was an independent risk factor for reflux; semisupination at 30° (OR =0.201,95%CI 0.057 -0.708,P = 0.013),nasalenteral tube (OR =0.267,95% CI0.072 -0.993,P = 0.049) ,and tracheotomy (OR = 0.232,95%CI0.070 -0.763,P =0.016) were independent protecting factors for the reflux. Conclusion Advanced age ( > 60 y) is a high risk factor for the MV patients with enteral nutrition;, semisupination at 30° .nasalenteral feeding,tracheotomy are low risk factors for the MV patients with enteral nutrition.

Objective To observe the effects of thin recipe ofBuyang Huanwu Decoction on expressions of glutathione (GSH) antioxidant system including GSH, GSH-Px andγ-GCS in the brain of focal cerebral ischemia rats;To study its mechanism of antioxidant effect.Methods Totally 120 SD rats were randomly divided into four groups according to random number table method:sham-operation group, model group,Buyang Huanwu Decoction group and thin recipe ofBuyang Huanwu Decoction group. Except for the sham-operation group, the rest groups established focal cerebral ischemia rat model by middle cerebral arterial occlusion. The treatment groups were given corresponding medicine by gavage, while the sham-operation group and model group were given the same amount of normal saline 2 h after modeling. Each group was detected after cerebral ischemia for 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days respectively. The content of GSH and the activity of GSH-Px were detected. At the same time,γ-GCS mRNA and protein levels were determined by using real time-PCR and Western blot.Results The content of GSH and the activity of GSH-Px at each time point decreased in the model group (P<0.05), compared with the corresponding sham-operation group. But the expression ofγ-GCS mRNA and protein increased, with statistical significance on day 1 (P<0.05). Compared with model group, content of GSH and GSH-Px activity levels increased differently in each treatment group, whileγ-GCS mRNA and protein expression raised, with statistical significance on day 3 (P<0.05).Conclusion The thin recipe ofBuyang Huanwu Decoction plays antioxidant effect by regulating the expression of glutathione antioxidant system GSH, GSH-Px andγ-GCS after cerebral ischemia, which may be one of its therapeutic mechanisms for cerebral ischemia.

Objective To investigate the relationship between expression of Her-2 gene and the transfer number of axillary lymph node and its influence on prognosis.Methods A total of 351 cases with primary breast cancer from January 2008 to January 2011 were selected.The expression of Her-2 gene was detected by immunohistochemical method,and analyzed the relationship between it and the transfer number of axillary lymph node and its influence on prognosis.Results The expression of Her-2-,+,++ had no correlation with the transfer number of axillary lymph node (x2 =3.757,1.650,2.379,P ＞ 0.05),while the expression of Her-2 +++ had correlation with the transfer number of axillary lymph node (x2 =8.681,P ＜ 0.05).The 2 years survival rates in the expression of Her-2-,+,++,+++ were 77.01％ (201/261),85.00％ (34/40),29.17％(7/24),1 1.54％ (3/26),and which in the expression of Her-2--+ was significantly higher than that in the expression of Her-2 ++-+++ (x2 =61.605,P ＜ 0.01).The transfer number of axillary lymph node was 0 and 1-3,the 2 years survival rate in the expression of Her-2--+ was significantly higher than that in the expression of Her-2 ++-+++,and there was significant difference (x2 =61.605,14.747,P ＜ 0.05).The transfer number of axillary lymph node was 4-9 and ≥ 10,there was no significant difference in the 2 years survival rate between the expression of Her-2--+ and Her-2 ++-+++ (x2 =3.691,3.482,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The expression of Her-2-,+,++ has no correlation with axillary lymph node metastasis,and the 2 years survival rate in the expression of Her-2--+ is higher than that in the expression of Her-2 ++-+++,while Her-2-has no difference with Her-2 + in prognosis.While the transfer number of axillary lymph node ≤ 3,the expression of Her-2 gene may be an important prognostic factor.
