Objective To evaluate clinical effects of using axonal repair technique (cell surgery) for the treatment of peripheral nerve injuries. Methods 12 patients with 13 injured peripheral nerves were treated with axonal repair technique of soaking the stumps of the nerve in a modified Collins fluid, freezing the stumps with liquid nitrogen, trimming the solidified stumps with a sharp blade, coapting the nerve with glue and two stitches of epineurium, so that the injured peripheral nerves were repaired at the axonal level. The postoperative evaluation was performed at an average of 9.7 months. Results In four of 12 cases operated upon with contralateral C 7 nerve root transfer(C 7 to ulnar nerve), regenerating axons had reached to the ipsilateral sternoclavicular joint or axilla at postoperative 4-7 months, so that the second stage of contralateral C7 nerve root transfer procedure could be performed. In five cases of which the accessory nerves were transferred to suprascapular nerves, the strength of supra-and infraspinatus of 3 patients had recovered to MRC 3-4 at postoperative 16 months, and that of the other two, to MRC 1-2 at 12 months. In one case undergoing the second stage procedure of contralateral C 7 nerve root transfer (ulnar nerve to median nerve), the flexor carpi radialis showed some nerve regeneration shown in EMG at postoperative 4 months. In one case of which phrenic nerve was transferred to the musculocutaneous nerve (the nerve graft 8 cm), the biceps showed some nerves regeneration shown in the EMG 15 months postoperatively. In one patient for whom two digital nerves were repaired, the protective sensation had recovered 3 months postoperatively. Conclusion Axonal repair technique is an effective and practical way for the treatment of peripheral nerve injury.

Objective To study the effect of extract of leave ginkgo biloba (EGb) for protection of the motor and sensory neurons axotomy-induced in rats. Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 180－ 220 g (8－ 9 weeks of age), were randomly divided into control group and EGb24/6 group. Models of sciatic nerve injury were established by transection of left sciatic nerve at 0.5 cm away from the points of muscular innervation. The proximal stump of sciatic nerve was double ligated to inhibit nerve regeneration. The distal end of the nerve was implanted into the biceps femoris. Then 2 ml of normal saline was given to control group, and 2 ml of EGb24/6 to the EGb24/6 groups daily. The rats were sacrificed in 7,14,28 days after surgery respectively, and then 4％ paraformaladehyde was perfused transcardially. The L4－ 6 spinal cord and L5 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) were harvested. HE staining and CV technique were used for detection of the motor neurons and compared with contra-lateral side. TUNEL technique was used for detection of apoptotic motor and sensory neurons. Eletron microscopic technique was used for observation of change of L5 DRG neurons. Result The number of motor neurons was significantly higher in EGb24/6 group in each postoperative period than that in control group (P

Objective To study the classification, its incidence and some related factors of neurological complications after liver transplantation.Methods 166 cases of orthotopic liver transplantation were retrospectively studied. The classification and the incidence of the neurological complications were analyzed. In addition, the patients were divided into two groups, according to whether they suffered from neurological complications or not, to study the difference of related factors, which included gender, age, primary disease, type of operation procedure, operation time, non-hepatic time, ischemia time of donor liver, blood loss, blood infusion and immunosuppressive regimen.Results Neurological complications occurred in 28 cases (32 times), which included encephalopathy, seizure, stroke, infection of central nervous system, serious para-pyramidal syndrome and peripheral neuropathy. The total incidence was 16.9 %. Between the neurological complication group and non-neurological-complication group, no difference was found in gender, age, type of operation procedure, operation time, non-hepatic time, ischemia time of donor liver, blood loss, blood infusion and immunosuppressive regimen, but the neurological complications were closely related with primary diseases. The incidence of neurological complications was 30 % in acute liver failure, followed by post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis (21 %), primary liver carcinoma (17.8 %), Wilson disease (16.7 %) and primary biliary liver cirrhosis (12.5 %). Interestingly as a sole complication disease, the incidence of encephalopathy in acute liver failure was 15 %, that was much higher than that in other primary disease. So was the peripheral neuropathy, which was 10 % in primary liver carcinoma.Conclusions The neurological complication is a kind of serious disease with high incidence after liver transplantation. Its onset may have some relationships with the primary liver disease.

The accurate location of acupoints is the prerequisite for the efficacy of acupuncture-moxibustion. Bone-length measurement, bone-proportional measurement, and proportional unit of the body measurement are commonly used in clinic for acupoints location. Based on the systematic review of the ancient literatures, this article discussed the meaning, evolution and relations of bone-length measurement, bone-proportional measurement, and proportional unit of the body measurement. It’s concluded that the bone-length measurement should be a benchmark in ancient anthropometry and an important basis for acupoints location. Bone proportional measurement, used in different genders, ages and body sizes, was based on the relatively stable proportional relations of various body parts, though some of the standards were adjusted in accordance with the correlation between meridians and acupoints. Location of points by proportional unit of the body simplified the application of bone-length measurement and bone proportional measurement, based on the ratio between short and long bones or the ratio of same body parts in anthropometry. However, proportional unit of the body measurement should be applied for the specific body parts. Bone-length measurement, bone-proportional measurement, and proportional unit of the body measurement are correspondingly the benchmark measurement, relative measurement, and simplified measurement.

To produce specific antibodies against malachite green ( MG) , one special hapten was synthesized and characterized, and conjugated to carrier protein as immunogen. The immunogen showed excellent reactogenicity and immunogenicity. One specific monoclonal antibody (mAb, named MG-DA4-C7) with high sensitivity and specificity for MG in indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunoassay ( icELISA ) was screened. The isotype was IgG1 and the light chain was κ type. After optimization of ELISA conditions, the proposed icELISA showed a 50% inhibition value ( IC50 ) of 0. 96 μg/L, a linear range ( IC20-IC80 ) of 0. 1-8. 1 μg/L and a limit of detection ( LOD, IC10 ) of 0. 05 μg/L for determination of MG. The assay showed cross-reactivity of 18. 1%, 26. 5% with crystal violet and brilliant green, respectively, and negligible cross-reactivity with other metabolites of MG (<0 . 1%) . The average recoveries of MG from spiked fish samples were from 87. 3% to 107. 3%. Good correlation (R2=0. 999) was obtained between the results of icELISA and those of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis. The proposed icELISA is suitable for the determination of MG in fish samples in a simple and sensitive manner.

Objective To compare the result differences of different dynamic nerves transferring to different segments of the radial nerve. Methods From 1997 to 2000, different ways of intercostal nerves or contralataral C 7 transfering to different segments of the radial nerves were carried out in 36 cases with total avulsed brachial plexus injuries that were followed up for average 42.39 months. Four-fold table was selected to statistically calculate the effective rate of muscle strength recovery. Results The total effective rate was 56% (20/36). The effective rate of the functional rehabilitation of elbow extension was 5/8 in the group with neurotization to radial nerve trunk and 4/4 in the group with neurotization to branches innervating the triceps brachii muscle of radial nerve. The highest effective rate up to 75% (9/12) of the functional rehabilitation of wrist and digit extension belonged to the group with contralateral C 7 transferring to the radial nerve segment in the humeral spiral groove where branches innervating the triceps brachii muscle had already diverged. Conclusions The way of neurotization to radial nerve trunk and to branches innervating the triceps brachii muscle of the radial nerve can win good functional rehabilitation of elbow extension. Contralataral C 7 transfering to the radial nerve segment in the humeral spiral groove ranks the best way for function recovery of the wrist extension. Age below 30 years and operation interval less than 12 months are helpful for functional rehabilitation of the radial nerve.

Objective To investigates the possible methodes for adult human Schwann cell culture and proliferation with F-12 medium which could be used on human body. Methods Nineteen human peripheral nerves were used in this study, 12 of them were cultured under F-12 medium and the other 7 nerves under standerd medium. The medium were changed every 2 days, and the nerve tissues were transfered to another plate when there were too many cells, after 6-8 times of transferring, most of the cells were Schwann cells and the nerve tissues were digested using none cell toxic collagenas. The cells were counted and evaluated the survival rate with Live-Dead kit S-100 protein immunostaining was used to assesse the Schwann cell purity. Results The survival rate of the cells were 85.54% and 86.93% , and the Schwann cell purity were 82.64% and 86.37% respectively, there were no difference between the two different medium, but we got more cells from F-12 medium than Standard medium, which was 14.2?10~7 and 5.9?10 respectively. Conclusion The F-12 medium could be used for human Schwann cell culture, meanwhile it had possible function on Schwann cell proliferation.
