BACKGROUND:Medical polyethylene glycol berberine is a biomaterial against tissue adhesion, with anti-inflammatory effects, which can prevent scar formation and reduce local inflammation. OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy of medical polyethylene glycol berberinevia shoulder joint injections on subacromial impingement syndrome. METHODS:Forty patients with subacromial impingement syndrome I, II were voluntarily divided into two groups: biomaterial group (n=20), single intra-articular injection of 3 mL medical polyethylene glycol berberine; conservative treatment group (n=20), single subacromial space closed treatment of betamethasone combined with lidocaine hydrochloride folowed by oral administration of celecoxib 200 mg once, twice a day, totaly for 1 week. Patients were folowed up clinicaly for visual analog scale scores, range of motion of the shoulder and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Both of two groups had a great improvement in visual analog scale scores, range of motion of the shoulder and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores after treatment (P< 0.05), and these scores were improved more significantly in the biomaterial group than the conservative treatment group at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months after treatment (P < 0.001). These findings indicate that the intra-articular injection of medical polyethylene glycol berberine for subacromial impingement syndrome can effectively aleviate shoulder pain, improve shoulder mobility, and promote functional recovery of the shoulder.

Objective: To develop a molecular screening test for genetic defects on hearing loss related genes has significant impacts on early identification of hereditary hearing loss and genetic susceptibility to aminoglycoside ototoxicity. Early identification of pre-lingual hearing loss is very important for patient's language development, academic achievement, and social skill. Two common mutations, the 235delC in GJB2 gene and the mutation A1555G in mitochondrial DNA, are included in the newly developed screening panel for Chinese population. Methods: A molecular genetic assay, based on fluorescent labeled multiplex PCR and automatic DNA fragment analyzing techniques, was developed to detect both mutations simultaneously. Results: This assay was able to detect both mutations from patient's samples, and pooled DNA tests, as well as suitable to detect mutation from the DNA extracted from dried blood spot and buccal swab. Conclusion: This assay could be a useful tool for newborn screening and carrier screening for the hereditary hearing loss for the Chinese population.

Objective In order to find out influencing factors of corrosiveness of common chemical disinfectants used at present for medical instruments on varied metal material, and to offer scientific bases for working -out corresponding state standards. Methods Liquid instruments disinfectants containing chlorine and glutaraldehyde compound disinfectant were chose to take an example to study their corrosiveness to varied sorts and type s of the metal. Sing le related factors were researched by contrast test study in the process of dete rmining metal corrosion rate (R value, mm*a-1) citing from GB10124-88 me thod. Results Varied chemical disinfectants had different metal R valu e. R value was in fluenced by kinds of metal pieces, sorts of soaked vessel material, drying tempe rature, whether changing liquid disinfectants or not and water quality, while d ifferent capacity of balance measure had no effect on R value. Concl usi ons R value was affected by kinds and types of metal pieces and other factors. These fac tors should be considered sufficiently while determining or comparing corrosiven ess of chemical disinfectants to soaked metal.

Specimens of skin, skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, brain, peripheral nerve and catilage were taken from 6 cadavers (divided into 2 groups) perfused and embalmed with formalin. 90 pieces of the above-mentioned tissues were taken in different times and the paraffin sections were stained by routine HE. Electron microscopic observation was made from some skin and skeletal muscle specimens, and histochemical methods were used to demonstrate DNA, RNA, keratin(-SH, -SS), fatty acids and calcium in some skin materials. Loyez stain method for myelin sheath was applied to some brain and nerve sections.1. Skin tissue: In both group A and B, 83.3% and 78.9% of skin materials were appraised as grade I and II (excellent and good) respectively. The morphological changes appeared mainly as karyopyknosis of the epidermal cells and shrinkage of the secretory part of the sweat glands. Most of the skin tissues of the corpses perfused 3~4 hrs after death were well preserved, only 8.3% being in grade Ⅲ (moderate). On the other hand, 43% of skin materials taken from those perfused 30 hrs after death were in grade Ⅲ. Ultrastructurally, the shape of the epidermal cells and their adhensions still remained intact, but karyopyknosis or chromolysis and autolysis of most of the cytoplasmic membraneous structures were found. In those cadavers preserved for less than one year, there was no evidence of progressive changes in microscopic and submicroscopic structures of the skin. The tonofillaments and desmosomes were still kept well in those specimens preserved for many years, and their presence may be the cause of maintaining cell integrity. Histochemically, mercapto-reaction of keratin was kept stable and found to be well shown even in old samples of skin, but the disulfide reaction usually showed marked fading with time, probably due to exofolition of the stratum corneum. However, this reaction was well shown in the hairs and not weakened for many years.2. Fat tissue: Hydrolysis of lipid substances of subcutancous fat and sebaceous gland, as shown by the presence of fatty acid, was found in the corpses preserved even as short as half a year.3. Skeletal muscle: The preservation state of the skeletal muscle was also dependent on the complete perfusion in time. The structure of the muscle fibers was generally worse preserved than that of the skin as shown in severe myolysis. Since stagnation of the small blood vessels frequently accompanied myolysis, obstruction of microcirculation which prevented the permeation of fomalin into the muscle tissues may be the cause of rapid myolysis. The ultrastructural changes of the muscle fibers were the same as those of the epidermal cells. In all specimens even as old as 30 years, two types of myofillaments were well preserved, and bands could be seen distinctly.4. Nervous tissue: The brain tissues were well preserved in those corpses that were perfused shortly after death, but the peripheral nerves usually showed severe autolysis, obviously it is due to the same reasons as those for myolysis.5. Cartilage: The structural changes of cartilage after death were slow and all specimens of cartilage were well preserved.
