Objective:To observe the therapeutic effects of auricular point sticking in managing functional dyspepsia.Methods:Seventy patients with functional dyspepsia were randomly divided into two groups,with 35 patients in the treatment group receiving auricular point sticking therapy,and the other 35 patients in the control group managed by taking Domperidone orally.The therapeutic effects were evaluated 4 weeks later.Result:The total effective rate was 85.7% in the treatment group and82.9% in the control group.Although the difference of the total effective rate between the two groups was not significant,the treatment group was superior to the control group in the improvement of several symptoms(P<0.05).Conclusion:Auricular point sticking therapy is effective in treatment of functional dyspepsia,and compared to Domperidone,it is better in managing gastric pain,abdominal bloating,and belching.

Objective To investigate the principles of combined traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment of early postoperation inflammatory small bowel obstruction(EPISBO).Methods 93 cases of EPISBO were randomly divided into two groups including group A,47 cases received combined traditional Chinese and west- ern medicine treatment,and group B 46 received only western medicine treatment.Results 93 patients were all cured through nonsurgical treatment.The combined traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment was better in symtom improvement and reduce of expense.Conclusion The principle treatment of EPISBO is mainly nonsurgical. The traditional Chinese medicine and somatostatin are very important.

Objectives To validate the Screening Tool for the Assessment of Malnutrition in Pediatrics (STAMP) in hospitalized pediatric patients, and to assess the nutritional status and nutritional risk using STAMP. Methods the nutritional status of hospitalized pediatric patients was investigated by adopting STAMP. The STAMP score≥4 was deifned as a high standard of nutritional risk. Results Among 1 506 hospitalized children, children with high nutritional risk accounted for 26.56%. The overall prevalence of malnutrition and stunting was 19.12%and 10.16%, respectively. There was signiifcant diffe-rence in stunting among each department (P<0.05), which was the highest in department of internal pediatrics. The proportion of patients receiving nutritional support was 10.09%. Among them, the rate of parenteral and enteral nutrition support was 7.84%and 2.92%, respectively. The ratio of parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition was 2.68:1. After intervention to hospitalized pa-tients with high nutritional risk, the overall prevalence of high nutritional risk decreased from 26.56%at admission to 21.71%at discharge (P<0.05). Conclusions STAMP can objectively relfect the possible malnutritional risk in hospitalized pediatric patients. The nutrition condition of the pediatric patients can be improved through nutritional risk management.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for determining the content of Ornidazole gel by first-order derivative spectrophotometry.METHODS:The first-order derivative spectrophotometry was used to determine the content of Ornidazole gel at a wavelength of 259nm and 299nm.RESULTS:The linear range of Ornidazole was 4.01～44.1?g?mL-1.The average recovery was 101.6%,with RSD of 1.3%.CONCLUSIONS:This method can meet the requirements for quality control of Ornidazole gel both in terms of precision and accuracy.

Objective To compare the image quality and scanning dose of time-subtraction and dual-energy-subtraction cerebral CT angiography, and to assess clinical application value of both methods. Methods Plain and enhanced scanning were performed on 60 patients suspected cerebral vessel diseases with dual-source CT. Dual-energy mode with tube voltages of 140 and 80 kV was used in enhanced scanning, and data of two different energy were collected in one scanning. ①Traditional removed-bone digital subtraction (time-subtraction) with plain and 80 kV enhanced scanning data were obtained. Volume render (VR) and maximum intensity projection (MIP) reconstruction were finished; ②Direct removed-bone digital subtraction (dual-energy subtraction) with 80 kV and 140 kV enhanced scanning data were obtained. VR and MIP reconstruction were finished. The image quality of VR and MIP was divided into 4 grades, and were compared as well as average effective radiological dose. All the diseases were confirmed with surgery or DSA. Average effective radiological dose was compared with time-subtraction and dual-energy subtraction. Results Internal carotid artery trunk and branch and Willis circles were displayed clearly with two methods in 60 cases. No significant difference was found (P>0.05) between total quality score of the two methods. The size, shape, neck and axis point of aneurysm in 24 cases were clearly displayed, so as the shape and extent of abnormal vessel bolus in 4 cases, while arteries and veins were also clear in artery-vein malformation; ③The average radiological dose was (26.60±0.50)mSv in time-subtraction and (22.40±0.50) mSv in dual-energy subtraction. Conclusion The normal, abnormal vessels and diseases can be clearly displayed at time-subtraction and dual-energy subtraction CTA. The effect of dual-energy-subtraction is better than that of time-subtraction CTA in no-cooperation patients, and the radiological dose is lower in dual-energy CTA.

Objective To investigate the expression of SEL1L and p63 protein in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and precarcinomacous lesion.Methods Immunohistochemical staining(EnVision method)was employed to detect the expression of SEL1L and p63 protein in 60 samples of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,32 samples of high grade esophageal intraepithelial neoplasia,13 samples of low grade esophageal intraepithelial neoplasia and 33 samples of normal esophageal mucosa.Results The positive rate of SEL1L protein expression was 61.5%in low grade intraepithelia neoplasia,90.6%in high grade intraepithelial neoplasia and 96.7%in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,significantly higher than that in normal esophageal mucosa(6.1%)(P0.05).Conclusion Both the expression of SEL1L and p63 protein increases steadily in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,which indicates that the two genes may play a role and cooperate with each other in the carcinogenesis.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD) of 16 STR loci on X chromo- some and investigate the genetic stability. METHODS: Genomic DNA samples extracted from blood stains from 500 unrelated individuals and 885 lineage members from Eastern Chinese Han population were genotyped through multiplex amplification using IDtyperX-16 kit by our independent research followed by capillary electrophoresis. LD was assessed by PowerMarker v3.25 software and mutation rate of every locus was analyzed. RESULTS: LD were not found at the 16 X-STR loci. Allele mutations were observed at 10 loci. Among them, mutation rates of DXS6809 and DXS7132 were both up to 0.0048. CONCLUSION When the 16 X-STR loci included in IDtyperX-16 kit were used for parentage testing, product princi- ples can be applied to calculate the likelihood, but mutation should be taken into consideration in the case that the genotypes do not meet the genetic law (especially at DXS6809 and DXS7132).
