Objective To observe clinical effect of treating advanced laryngeal carcinoma with chemotherapy combined with reinforcing-qi-nourishing-yin herbs. Methods 36 patients with advanced laryngeal carcinoma were randomly recurited into a control group and a treatment group. The control group was treated with chemotherapy, and the treatment group was treated with chemotherapy combined with reinforcing-qi-nourishing-yin herbs. The clinical effect was observed in both groups. Results The total effective rate in the treatment group and the control group was 82.6% and 63.6%, respectively. There was a significant dieffference between two groups (X2=0.0285, P<0.05 ). Conclusion The treatment of chemotherapy combined with reinforcing-qi-nourishing-yin herbs on advanced laryngeal carcinoma is better than chemotherapy.

Auricular deformity, a common disease of the external ear in China, can be divided into congenital deformity and acquired deformity caused by trauma or ablative origin. Ear reconstruction with autogenous rib cartilage grafts provides consistent emotional relief and psychological benefits due to the repair. However, autogenous reconstruction is complex and challenging, and can be fraught with complications, in addition sometimes it may not be an option for the patients with poor skin cover, severe craniofacial anomalies, those with microtia who have had a failed previous reconstruction and microtia patients with a very low hairline and residual lobe. As an alternative to the significant surgical morbidity of autogenous reconstruction, osseointegrated implant reconstruction has several distinct advantages. This current essay was to illustrate the superiority, indications, feasibility and complications of osseointegrated implant reconstruction, and provide alternative way to help patient who was deprived of ear(s).

1. 40 cadavers were dissected in order to observe the position and formation of the osteo-fibrous canal (384 canals) of the medial division of posterior ramus of lumbar nerves together with the occurrence of the articulo-accessory (process) ligament.2. The form of the external opening of the osteo-fibrous canal may be classified into three groups; nearly circular 35.1% (151); approximately ellipsoid 32.3% (124); crack detector 28.4% (109).3. The osteo-fibrous canal consists of four walls, bounded by mammillary process, accessory process, bony wall and superior articular process ligament respectively. According to the constitution of the anterior and posterior walls of the canal, it may be divided into three categories; osteo-aponeuroticoligamentous type 29.4% (113); osteo-membranous type 66.4% (255) and bony type 4.2% (16).4. The length and width of the superior articular process ligament were measured. The sexual difference of the lengths of L_(1～5) lumbar is significant.5. The sulcus between the superior articular process and the alar portion of the sacrum was observed and measured.6. The ligament on the posterior wall of the canal is nominated as the ligament of the superior articular process.7. Based on the anatomical structures thus studied, some clinical significances were discussed.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical results and feasibility of auricular prostheses by osseointegration technique for total auricular defect.METHODS Nineteen patients with traumatic total auricular defect who had underwent operation of bone-anchored auricular prosthesis were studied retrospectively.There were 12 cases with congenital microtia after an unsuccessful total auricular reconstruction,1 case with sulfuric acid burn,1 case with high temperature aluminum liquid burn,4 cases with traffic accident and 1 case with knife trauma.All the cases were followed-up for 3 to 5 years.RESULTS All the patients were cured after operation once.They all had vivid appearances with natural color and luster.The auricular prosthesis by osseointegration technique was stable and had no harm for daily life.CONCLUSION Auricular prosthesis by osseointegration technique is a convenient method with less trauma,short curing time,no complication and good result.It is a salvage treatment for patients after unsuccessful total auricular reconstruction.It is also a priority method for patients with scar formation after total auricular defects.

Objective To study the effect of antipsychotic drugs combined with psychological intervention on the elderly patients with acute mental disorders after surgery operation.Methods 100 cases of elderly male patients undergoing surgery in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 as the object of study in the course of the study,were randomly divided into control group and experimental group,with 50 cases in each group.The control group received routine care,antipsychotic drug combined with psychological nursing intervention for patients in the experimental group,focusing on the psychological status of patients,strengthen exchanges and communication with patients,patients with heart to eliminate negative emotions,help patients recover as soon as possible.The anxiety and depression of the experimental group and the control group were compared and analyzed.Results After the corresponding nursing,the experimental group of patients with anxiety self rating scale and self rating Depression Scale score was significantly better than before nursing, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The self rating depression scale of the experimental group was(44.23±3.78),and the self rating Anxiety Scale score was(42.35±5.98).In the control group,the depression score was(48.73±2.53),and the anxiety score was(45.94±4.92).The anxiety score and depression score of the experimental group were significantly better than those of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Antipsychotic drugs combined with psychological intervention can help the elderly male surgical acute mental disorders recovered to a certain extent,ease the patients with depression and anxiety,with further clinical promotion and application significance.

Humans are negatively affected by parasitic infection.However, recent researches revealed that to some extent, parasitic infections are advantageous to humans.Parasitic infections are found to benefit patients of inflammatory bowel disease, diabetes mellitus, autoimmune disease and allergic disorder.Furthermore, they promoted studies on pathogenesis of these diseases, and therefore on safe and effective therapeutic strategy.In addition, by taking the Caenorhabditis elegans as model organism, researchers have made a breakthrough in the area of life science, including signal transduction, functional genomics and drug screening.

Objective To study the influence of economic level on nutrition intake and status in adult. Methods The survey of income level, and nutrition intake and status of adults in 2000 in the city and rural area of Hunan province was carried out, and was compared with the data of the first survey in 1991. Results With the income increasing, the intake of protein,calcium,iron, retinal EQ and riboflavin increased from 1991 to 2000. In the population with low and middle income, the inadequate intake of calcium, retinal EQ and riboflavin was common. With the economic level being raised, the number of people with overweight or obesity(BMI≥25) increased, especially in city. But the number of people with malnutrition (BMI

Fifty adult cadavers have been dissected bilateraly. Judged from our anatomical study, the site of division of the radial nerve into its superficial terminal and posterior interosseous branches is above the lateral humeral epicondyle in 96％. Usually, the brachialis, brachioradialis, and extensor carpi radialis longus and brevis all receive several muscular branches, which stem from different portions of the radial nerve. Muscular branch for ECRB arising from the superficial radial nerve of one side amounts to 25％.Two arcades are found to be situated along the radial side of the anterior cubital region, one being formed from the proximal tendinous margin of the ECRB muscle, and the other from the proximal edge of the superficial portion of the supinator. The lateral half of the ECRB arch, which covers that of the supinator arch, is definite and sharp and is crossed by the posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) obliquely. Its medial half coincides with the corresponding half of the supinator arch, but occassionally they may fuse together. The supinator arch may be divided into loop or circular types, with its longitudinal and transverse diameters of nearly 1～1.2 cm. Those which are tendinous in nature (arcade of Frohse)amount to 18％.There are 28 sides of PIN being compressed by the ECRB arch during passive supination, while 18 sides by the supinator arch (Frohse' arch in 2) during passive pronation. For this reason, in addition to their close relationship and position on the radial side, they are preferred to be combined and named as the cubital radial arch.

Objective To analyze left ventricular (LV) global systolic function in patients with coronary artery disease(CAD) and their changes after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) using velocity vector imaging(VVI). Methods Eighteen healthy adults and twenty two patients with CAD were enrolled in this study. Two-dimensional dynamic images of standard apical four-chambers, two-chambers and parasternal short-axis views at the level of mitral valve and apex were obtained in VVI condition. All patients were examined 1 day before PCI, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after PCI respectively. LV rotation degree, rotation velocity at baseline and apex were measured using the off-line syngo US workplace software and LV twist, torsion were calculated as global motion condition. Results LV ejection fraction(LVEF) and peak torsion at myocardial infarction group were lower than those at normal control and myocardial ischemia group. After PCI, LVEF were gradually improved in both myocardial infarction group and myocardial ischemia group,while changes of LV apex rotation degree and velocity, peak twist and peak torsion between two groups were opposite: those parameters of the former increased 1 week or 1 month after PCI but decreased 3 months after PCI,while those of the latter decreased 1 week after PCI but increased gradually 1 month and 3 months after PCI. Conclusions LV twist and torsion can be evaluated exactly by VVI.Compared with LVEF, LV twist and torsion can preferably reflect the different characteristic of LV global systolic function after coronary artery recanalization in myocardial infarction group and myocardial ischemia group.
