Objective To evaluate the long term efficacy of partial splenic embolization(PSE) for thalassanemia major. Methods 75 patients with thalassanemia major were treated with PSE and followed for 5 years,in which 30 patients with compelete data were studied.There were 8 patients with ? thalassanemia major,22 patients with ? thalassanemia major.The follow up indices included mean haemoglobin concertration,transfusion indices and blood transfusion consumption after embolization at 1,2,3,4,5 years. Results 26 of 30 patients showed a reduction in blood transfusion requirements and increase in haemoglobin level after embolization. The median blood transfusion requirements decreased from 1 200 ml/year before embolization to 200 ml/year; and the transfusion indices dropped from 6 times/year to 1 time/year. The mean of haemoglobin level increased from (60 9? 18 9)g/L to (82 3?17 4)g/L. The total effective rate was 86 7%,in which ? ,? thalassanemia major were 100 0%,81 8% respectively. Conclusion PSE is an effective therapeutic procedure for thalassanemia major, especially for ? thalassanemia major.

Objective: To investigate the diterpenoid alkaloids from Aconitum episcopale. Methods: The obtained compounds were isolated by different chromatographic methods and their structures were identified by physicochemical properties and spectral data. Results: Ten diterpenoid alkaloids were isolated and identified as talatizamine (1), chasmanine (2), crassicauline A (3), foresaconitine (4), acoforestinine (5), yunaconitine (6), 3-deoxy-8-deacetyl-yunaeonitin (7), leucanthumsine D (8), pengshenine B (9), and macrorhynine B (10). Conclusion: Compounds 2-5 and 7-10 are isolated from this plant for the first time.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the toxicity effect of realgar on rat fertility and early embryo development. METHODS: Male and female SD rats were divided into control group, realgar low (50 mg · kg-1), medium (125 mg · kg-1) and high (250 mg · kg-1) dose groups. Realgar (batch No. H2007052401) was given by i.g. daily to male rats from six weeks before mating until the successful mating day and to females from two weeks before mating until the sixth day of pregnancy. Male rats were sacrificed after mating, and female rats were sacrificed on the 15th day of pregnancy. The numbers of corpus luteum, implantation spot, and survival fetus were recorded. Histopathological examination was carried out. Statistical analysis was done to compare with the control group. RESULTS: The mating rates, pregnancy rates, live fetus rates, loss rates before and after implantation, the number of corpus luteum, the number of implantations and reproductive organs in realgar groups were not significantly different when compared with the control group. Histopathological examination showed that there were micro-vacuolization in liver cells, focal infiltration of mononuclear cells and steatosis in liver in some female rats (3/10) and male rats (1/10) in realgar high-dose groups. And some female rats (2/10) in realgar high-dose group had interstitial fibroblasts proliferation with lymphocyte infiltration and focal renal tubular basophilic change. CONCLUSION: Realgar has no significant toxicity effect on rat fertility and early embryo development, but has certain toxicity to liver and kidney.

Objective To investigate the new method of ureter bladder anastomosis in renal transplantation.Methods The ureter was pulled into bladder for 1.2 cm through tunnel at the lateral- top of bladder wall,and the ureter fixed on the bladder wall by 2-3 acus with catgut suture.Results Forty of 42 patients had no complications,and recovered very well,except for 1 cases of necrosis caused by acute rejection and 1 case on urine leakage caused by catheter obstruction from blood clot.Conclu- sion This method is simple,easy to operate,safe and reliable with less complications.

Objective To discuss the effective measures for skin allergy caused by hyaline mem-brane after deep venous catheterization. Methods Patients (102 eases) were divided into the control group(50 cases) and the test group(52 cases).3M hyaline membrane was patched on the skin directly to fix the catheter after successful puncture in the control group.While in the test group 3M hyaline membrane was patched on the skin after 3M painless protective membrane was sprayed on the skin. Results The incidence of skin allergy in the test group was lower than that of the control group. Conclusions Spray of 3M painless protective membrane before usage of hyaline membrane to fix the catheter could prevent the incidence of skin allergy after deep venous catheterization.
