Thrombolytic therapy is a safe and effective way to cure thrombosis. Developing the safe,effective and cheap therapeutic thromolytic agents are important to prevent and cure thrombosis. In recent years,several fibrinolytic enzymes have been found in the resources of Asian traditional fermented foods,such as Japanese natto,Korea Chungkook-Jang,Chinese Douchi and fermented shrimp paste. These fibrinolytic enzymes secreted by food-grade microorganisms are safe and effective,and are potent thrombolytic agents. The physical and biochemical properties,thrombolytic characteristics,and the potential applications of these fibrinolytic enzymes from Asian fermented food,are reviewed.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of Chinese herbal fumigation in the postoperative anal disease. The authors randomly divided 348 patients into treatment group and control group with 174 cases in each group. The treatment group was given to the Chinese herbal medicine hemorrhoids lotion for fumigation based on conventional anti infective therapy, routine dressing change and relaxing bowel. The control group was given to 1 000 mL 1: 5 000 potassium permanganate solution for sitz bath, fumigation based on conventional anti infective therapy, routine dressing change and relaxing bowel. The pain score, edema score, bleeding score, granulation tissue growth score and wound healing time of two groups were compared after operation. The results showed that the postoperative 6 h pain scores were higher in the two groups, the postoperative 3,5,7 d pain scores gradually decreased, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The difference of postoperative 6 h pain scores was no significant difference between the two groups, while postoperative 3,5,7 d pain scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). 7 days after operation, anal margin of edema score and blood in the stool score in the treatment group were lower than those in control group, meat medicine growth score was higher than that of the control group, the difference had statistical meaning (P < 0.05). The healing time of two groups was respectively (13.89 + 2.78), (18.45 + 1.65) d (P < 0.05). This study suggested that Chinese herbal fumigation and washing could reduce the pain degree of patients, the anal margin of edema, and the blood in the stool, also could promote granulation tissue growth and shorten the time of wound healing, deserve the clinical expansion.

Objective:To evaluate the influence of complete or incomplete revascularization on the life quality of elderly patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Methods:The study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and the quality of life assessment result in the elderly patients with multivessel coronary artery disease,who were over 60 years,underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) procedure from June 2003 to December 2004 in our center,and followed-up for 2 years with the 36 items short form health survey(SF-36).Results:All domains,except that for mental health,assessed by the SF-36 showed significantly higher scores after revascularization by PCI,and the scores in completely revascularized patients were higher than those in incompletely revascularized patients. Conclusion:PCI can significantly improve the quality of life and the improvement is better with complete than with incomplete revascularization.

Objective: The main purpose of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) is to improve patients' quality of life.Many studies focus on the efficacy of PCI for angina relief,but rarely on the improvement of quality of life after PCI.We aim to investigate the quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease(CHD) 2 years after coronary stent implantation.Methods: A total of 457 CHD patients underwent coronary stent implantation,their quality of life investigated with The Short Form 36 Health Survey Questionnaires(SF-36) before and 2 years after the operation.Results: The results of various dimensions of SF-36 before and 2 years after the operation were as follows: physical function(PF)(56.47?26.05 vs 68.20 ? 20.18,P 0.05).Conclusion: Coronary stent implantation could significantly improve the long-term(2-year) quality of life of patients with coronary heart disease.

The thyroid is closely related to neurological diseases. Abnormal thyroid function may cause a series of metabolic-related central nervous system symptoms. Hyperthyroidism encephalopathy and hypothyroidism encephalopathy associated with thyroid dysfunction are rare in adults. Clinicians pay less attention to hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism encephalopathy, which mainly present as mental and cognitive disorders, epileptic seizures, motor disorders and other nervous system symptoms as the first manifestation. These diseases are easily to be misdiagnosed. Hashimoto encephalopathy (HE) is a kind thyroid antibody-elevated and hormone-sensitive encephalopathy, has various clinical manifestations without specific auxiliary examination, and diagnosis can only be made by excluding other diseases. Whether "HE" is an independent disease remains controversial, as it is not clear whether thyroid auto-antibodies are specific to "HE" or the pathogenesis. Therefore, the present paper mainly focuses on the adult encephalopathy associated with abnormal thyroid function and thyroid antibody-associated encephalopathy.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical curative effect of thoracolumbar burst fracture treated by the posterior unilateral approach corpectomy fusion screw-rod fixation and anterior corpectomy bone fusion screw plate fixation.

METHODSFrom January 2008 to May 2014,36 cases of thoracolumbar burst fracture underwent operation of decompression, fusion, and internal fixation was retrospective analyzed. Among them, 16 patients were treated through posterior approach as posterior group, including 13 males and 3 females aged from 37 to 62 years old; 9 cases caused by falling injury, 3 cases by traffic accident injury,4 cases by heavy aboved;the injury segment was on T₁₂ in 2 cases, L₁ in 5 cases, L₂ in 7 cases, L₃ in 2 cases; according ASIA grade, 3 cases were grade A, 2 cases were grade B, 2 cases were grade C, 5 cases were grade D, 4 cases were grade E; the time between injury and operation ranged from 5 to 15 days. Other 20 patients were treated through anterior-lateral approach as anterior-lateral group, including 15 males and 5 females with age from 27 to 62 years old; 12 cases caused by falling injury, 4 cases by traffic accident injury, 4 cases by heavy aboved; the injury segment was on T₁₂ in 2 cases, L₁, in 7 cases, L₂ in 9 cases, L₃ in 2 cases; for ASIA grade: 4 cases were grade A, 2 cases were grade B, 4 cases were grade C, 6 cases were grade D, 4 cases were grade E; the time between injury and operation ranged from 4 to 12 days. The operation time, bleeding during operation and postoperative drainage volume were observed in two groups,and the changes of nerve function of ASIA grade, clinical efficacy,improved degree of thoracic and lumbar lordosis,and bony fusion were compared between two groups.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 24 months with an average of (15.8 ± 3.3) months. The operation time, bleeding during operation, and postoperative drainage volume had no significant different between two groups (P > 0.05). As compared with preoperative, ASIA grade of two groups at last follow-up had statistically significantly different (P < 0.01), the neural function of two groups after operation was recovered for different extent. The JOA score of two groups was compared between last follow-up and preoperative, the difference had statistically significant (P < 0.01), the two groups showed good clinical effect. The clinical results of ASIA grade, JOA score and RIS had no significant differences between two groups. All patients of two groups were obtained fusion. Thoracic and lumbar lordosis angle improvement degree had no significant difference between two groups ,it bad significant difference had statistical significance compared with preoperative, the two approaches could effectively restore the spinal sequence.

CONCLUSIONFor patients with thoracolumbar burst fracture just treated by anterior decompression and reconstruction of anterior column, according to the degree of operation performer' skill proficiency and the patient' condition to choose, but for patients must performed the spinal canal decompression anterior and posterior, the three column-reconstruction to required anterior-posterior approach, the posterior unilateral approach corpectomy fusion screw-rod fixation obviously shorten operation time, reduce the operation wound, it is worth the clinical promotion.
