Chronic constipation(CC)is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders. Treatment of CC includes drug and non-drug treatment. Biofeedback(BF)is a psychological behavior therapy and has become the first-line therapy of CC. However,the efficacy of BF reported varied substantially. This article reviewed the evaluation of efficacy of BF on CC.

Objective To investigate the value of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in the diagnosis of pulmonary cryptococcosis.Methods 15 patients who were diagnosed as pulmonary cryptococcosis were retrospectively studied,all of them were examined by sputum smear,X ray,CT and EBUS-TBNA.Results 15 patients who received EBUS-TBNA were diagnosed pulmonary cryptococcosis by pathological methods and germiculture,during the process no complication was detected.Conclusion EBUS-TBNA is a safe and effective means in the diagnosis of pulmonary cryptococcosis for pulmonary cryptococcosis patients hard to be diagnosed clinically.

Objective To investigate the key points of nursing during the course of breast tumor excision by endoscope. Method Summarized the nursing points of 24 patients who have accepted the breast tumor excision by endoscope. Results The key points of successful operation were sufficient preparation before the operation, the special skills of nurses, exactly and quickly transfer instruments and expert cooperation. Conclusion Paving attention on psychological nursing, the correct and skillful nursing care can reduce the operation time, and then make sure the successful operation.

AIM: To establish the quality standard for Duhuo Jisheng Mixture (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis, Herba Taxilli, Cortex Fraxini, etc.) METHODS: Herbs in Duhuo Jisheng Mixture were identified by TLC, and osthol content was determined by TLCS. RESULTS: Rhizoma Chuanxiong; Radix Angelicae Sinensis; Radix Saposhnikoviae; Radix Gentianae Macrophyllae; Cortex Eucommiae; Herba Asari; Radix Paeoniae Alba could be determined. Osthol showed a good linear relationship at a range of 0.466 - 3.600 ?g,r= 0.999 2 . The average recovery was 95.4% . CONCLUSION:The methods are available with a reproducibility and can control the quality of this mixture.

The reversed-phase high-performance chromatography was developed for determing the content of berberine, palmatine, emodin and chlorogenic acid in Xiaoerniuhuang Powder on ODS column. The powder samples extracted with methanol were determined separatly at their particular absorption points using external standard method.This method had advantages of perfect separatin, high sensitivity, good reproducibility and simple operation.

ObjectiveTo determine the effect of acute and chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) resulted from thoracic cord transection on the urinary bladder spinal neural pathway.Methods76 adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, non-SCI, SCIa, SCIb and SCIc respectively. The non-SCI rats underwent no surgical procedure except Pseudorabies virus (PRV) tracer injection into the bladder tissue, while the rats of other groups were spinalized and given PRV injection at different time after SCI. Transcardiac perfusion fixation was done in appropriate survival periods after PRV injection. Then sections of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and spinal cord were processed for visualization of virus by the Streptavidin-Peroxidase (SP) immunohistochemical procedure. All sections were measured with the Olympus Cue-2 image analysis system.ResultsThe bladder weights in SCIb and SCIc groups markedly increased (P<0.001). The time-ordered flow charts of PRV tracing were similar in the non-SCI rats and in the SCI rats. The cross-sectional area of the labeled DRG cell profiles increased significantly after SCI (P<0.001). The number of labeled cells in dorsal horn in L6 and S1 segments 3 days after PRV injection markedly increased in chronic SCI rats, and so did the number of labeled motor neurons 4 days post-injection. ConclusionThe acute and chronic SCI have little effect on the process of virus transneuronal transport below the level of lesion. Subsequent to chronic SCI, marked reorganization of the micturition reflex pathways occurs.

Objective To discuss the reasonable utilization of β-lactam antibiotics in patients with renal failure on hemedialysis. Methods The clinical characteristics of patients with renal failure on hemodylysis,who de-veloped the adverse effect of nervous system and psychiatric symptom while being treated with β-lactam antibiotics,were retrospectively analyzed. Results The adverse effect of nervous system and psychiatric symptom showed dur-ing and after hemodialysis,including: mental confusion,hyperexcitabiliy,incoherent speech,lethargy and amyestasia in two cases. Physical examination did not show signs of cerebral focal injury in all cases. Computed tomography of brain in 7 patients did not show acute lesions. The symptoms completely disappeared after withdrawal of β-lactam antibiotics but bemodialysis or hemodiafiltration continued. Conclusion β-lactam antibiotics used in conventional dose could cause temporary adverse effect of nervous system in patients with renal failure on bemodialysis,which is related to prolongation of drug half life.

SALL4 gene is closely related to body malformations related diseases, embryonic stem cell development, and hematopoietic malignancies. SALL4 can activate hematopoietic stem cell through Wnt signaling pathways, and promote continued proliferation of leukemia stem cells, leading to leukemia. In-depth study of SALL4 gene and its protein function will help clarify the pathogenesis of leukemia, providing a new target for the treatment of leukemia.
