Toutongling Capsule is a Chinese herbal preparation developing from an ancient formula processed by modern technology. Previous clinical studies have shown that Toutongling Capsule exerts a good effect on vascular headache, tonic headache and traumatic headache. To further explore its pharmacological mechanism, the effect of Toutongling Capsule on cerebral vessels and blood viscosity in experimental dogs was observed. The results showed that Toutongling Capsule can decrease cerebral vascular resistance obviously and increase cerebral blood flow, with a good dose-effect relationship. As compared with Yangjiao Granule, Toutongling Capsule possesses a similar effect on blood viscosity but stronger effect on dilatation of cerebral vessels and increase of cerebral blood flow. Both Toutongling Capsule and Yangjiao Granule have no effect on blood pressure and ECG.

Objective:To investigate different sleep duration and glucose and lipid metabolism levels in residents of a community in Urumqi.Methods:Using the 2 049 residents′ data of chronic metabolic disease in a community of Urumqi collected in May 2017, 1 822 subjects aged between 19-80 years with complete information were enrolled, their blood pressure, waist circumference, height, weight, body mass index were measured and recorded. Using oral glucose tolerance test to measure fasting and 2 h after meal plasma glucose, uric acid, HbA 1C, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were all tested. Results:(1)There were 363 (19.9%), 1 349 (74.0%), and 110 (6.1%) respondents with sleep time≤6.0, 6.1 to 8.0, and>8.0 h/d, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in age, education, and family income in groups with different sleep time ( P<0.05), while their gender, smoking status, and exercise status were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The rates of overweight, obesity, abdominal obesity, high uric acid, and hypertension in people with different sleep durations were statistically different ( P<0.01). The rates of the above indicators were higher in the group of sleep time≤6.0 h/d than the other two groups. (2) Differences in diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, body mass index, abdominal circumference, total cholesterol, and LDL-C levels were statistically significant among different sleep duration groups ( P<0.05). Further comparisons of the above indicators among three groups with different sleep durations were performed ( P<0.05). The levels of the above indicators in the sleep time≤6.0 h/d group were higher than those in the other two groups. There were no significant differences in fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, uric acid, triglyceride, and HDL-C among the three groups. (3) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that groups whether or not adjusted of age, family income, and education level, sleep time≤6.0 h/d was related to abdominal obesity, and sleep time≤6.0 h/d was be a risk factor for abdominal obesity [Unadjusted: OR=1.48(95% CI1.04-2.08); Adjusted: OR=1.65(95% CI1.18-2.32; P<0.05]. Conclusion:Sleep time ≤6.0 h/d is associated with abdominal obesity, and sleep time≤6.0 h/d may be a risk factor for abdominal obesity.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVETACE, Ar-He target cryosurgery and radioactive seeds implantation are the mainly micro-invasive methods in the treatment of lung cancer. This article summarizes the survival quality after treatment, the clinical efficiency and survival period, and analyzes the advantages and shortcomings of each methods so as to evaluate the clinical effect of non-small cell lung cancer with multiple minimally invasive treatment.
METHODSAll the 139 cases were non-small cell lung cancer patients confirmed by pathology and with follow up from July 2006 to July 2009 retrospectively, and all of them lost operative chance by comprehensive evaluation. Different combination of multiple minimally invasive treatments were selected according to the blood supply, size and location of the lesion. Among the 139 cases, 102 cases of primary and 37 cases of metastasis to mediastinum, lung and chest wall, 71 cases of abundant blood supply used the combination of superselective target artery chemotherapy, Ar-He target cryoablation and radiochemotherapy with seeds implantation; 48 cases of poor blood supply use single Ar-He target cryoablation; 20 cases of poor blood supply use the combination of Ar-He target cryoablation and radiochemotheraoy with seeds implantation. And then the pre- and post-treatment KPS score, imaging data and the result of follow up were analyzed.
RESULTSThe KPS score increased 20.01 meanly after the treatment. Follow up 3 years, 44 cases of CR, 87 cases of PR, 3 cases of NC and 5 cases of PD, and the efficiencywas 94.2%. Ninety-nine cases of 1 year survival (71.2%), 43 cases of 2 years survival (30.2%), 4 cases with over 3 years survival and the median survival was 19 months. Average survival was (16 +/- 1.5) months. There was no severe complications, such as spinal cord injury, vessel and pericardial aspiration.
CONCLUSIONMinimally invasive technique is a highly successful, micro-invasive and effective method with mild complications. To non-small cell lung cancer, we can improve the middle and long term clinical effect by using the different combination of multiple minimally invasive treatments according to the patient's condition.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVETranscatheter arterial chemotherapy and embolization is the main method in the treatment of lung cancer, but most of the reports do not study individually to small cell lung cancer (SCLC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), hypovascular and hypervascular lung cancer. The pre-embolization perfusion of hemotherapeutics is still being used routinely and seldom report to iodized oil embolization. The article summarized the quality of life after the treatment, clinical efficiency, survival time and complications to evaluate the clinical effect of primary hypervascular NSCLC treated with embolization of emulsion of chemotherapeutics and iodized oil.
METHODSThe study totally analyzed 41 cases which confirmed by pathology and follow up study from January, 2008 to January 2009. The CT scan with IV contrast demonstrates over moderate enhanced lesion which indicate hypervascular. Within the 41 cases, 23 cases of central, 18 cases of peripheral. Suqamous carcinoma 21 cases, adenocarcinoma 15 cases and squamoadenocarcinoma 5 cases. Stage IIIb 34 cases, stage IV 7 cases. Superselective incubation with microcatheter under DSA, to embolize the capillary bed with liquefied iodized oil and the emulsion of pharmorubicin, to embolize the supply artery of the tumor with gelatin foam microparticle. The liquefied iodized oil 5 mL-10 mL, pharmorubicin 10 mg-30 mg. The longest follow up is 12 months and to compare with the references of 2007-2009.
RESULTSThe KPS is widely acclaimed after the treatment (P < 0.05), no complete response (CR), 31 cases of partial response (PR), 7 cases of no change (NC) and 3 cases of progressive disease (PD), the total efficiency (CR+PR) is 75.6%. The clinical efficiency (CR+PR+NC) is 92.68%. 33 cases of total survival tome over 12 months (80.48%), IIIb stage 29/34 (85.29%), IV stage 4/7 (57.14%). 1 case with severe complication-spinal injury.
CONCLUSIONTo treat primary hypervascular NSCLC with simple embolization of emulsion of chemotherapeutics and iodized oil is very useful and can avoid the side effect of chemotherapeutics. The key point to avoid spinal injury and other severe complications is to distinguish the spinal aretery and intratumor AV fistula by using superselective incubation with microcatheter under DSA.

BACKGROUND: The most common soft liners currently used in the clinic are silicone rubbers and acrylics, but both of them have deficiencies. Therefore, the development of soft lining materials with stability, excellent performance, and antibacterial properties is of important clinical significance. OBJECTIVE: To prepare a soft lining material with high elasticity on the basis of excellent characteristics of Eucommia ulmoides gum, and to preliminarily explore its water absorption and solubility. METHODS: The basic formula was made based on the existing formula of elastic Eucommia ulmoides gum and medical rubber, in combination with the specific requirements of denture lining materials. The ratio of Eucommia ulmoides to butadiene rubber was set to be 10:90, 30:70, 50:50, 70:30 and 90:10, and the new Eucommia ulmoides gum composite soft denture liners were then prepared. Acrylate self-curing soft lining material and Silagum silicone rubber denture soft lining material served as controls. Afterwards, the samples were put into distilled water or artificial saliva for 7 and 30 days, and the value of water absorption and water solubility were calculated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) In the artificial saliva for 7 and 30 days, the water absorption rate and solubility of samples in different ratio groups were close to those in the Silagum group, but extremely lower than those in the acrylate group. (2) In the distilled water for 7 and 30 days, the water absorption rate and solubility of samples in different ratio groups were close to those in the Silagum group, but extremely lower than those in the acrylate group. (3) The water absorption rate and solubility of the acrylate group were significantly higher than those in the other groups at 7 and 30 days of immersion in the artificial saliva or distilled water (P < 0.05). (4) After 7 and 30 days of immersion, the water absorption rate of the same sample in the artificial saliva was significantly lower than that in the distilled water. Wile at 7 days of immersion, the samples in the 30:70 and 50:50 groups showed a lower solubility in the artificial saliva than in the distilled water (P < 0.05), and at 30 days of immersion, the samples in the 30:70, 50:50, 70:30 and 90:10 groups showed a lower solubility in the artificial saliva than in the distilled water (P < 0.05). (5) In the artificial saliva, there was no significant difference in the solubility in the 50:50 and 70:30 groups at 7 and 30 days of immersion (P> 0.05), while the solubility in the other groups exhibited significant differences at different observational times (P < 0.05). In the distilled water, there was no significant difference in the solubility in the 10:90 and 30:70 groups at 7 and 30 days of immersion (P> 0.05), while the solubility in the other groups exhibited significant differences at different observational times (P < 0.05). To conclude, the water absorption of Eucommia ulmoides gum composite soft denture liner is close to Silagum, but significantly less than that of acrylate soft lining materials, and the solubility remains at a very low level.
