Contents of magnolol and honokiol in Magnolia officinalis Rehd. et Wils. and its processed products,yellow-fried, burn -fried and ginger-fried M. officinalis Rehd. et Wils. as well as commercially available M.officinalis Rehd. et Wils. and its processed products were assayed by TLC Scanning. Results showed that contents of the two constituents decreased after M. officinalis Rehd. et Wils. was processed. Among them the burn-fried product showed a most pronounce decrease of 30%, while both yellow-fried and ginger-fried products decreased about 20%. The contents of magnolol and honokiol in commercial M. officinalis Rehd. et Wils. and its ginger-fried product available in other provinces and cities differed greatly with some almost contain no magnolol and honokiol.

Objective To evaluate the significance of combined determination of glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies(GADA),islet cell antibodies(ICA) and insulin autoantibodies (IAA) in predictive of type 1 diabetes mellitus Methods GADA, ICA and IAA were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and C peptide by radioimmunoassay Diagnose efficiency were calculated by matrix decision method Results The positive rate of GADA,ICA and IAA(68 8%,43 0% and 39 8%) were significantly elevated in the patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus compared with type 2 diabetes mellitus or normal subjects ( P

Objective To retrospectively evaluate effects of early dynamization of interlocking intramedullary nail on union of tibial shaft fractures.Methods From January 2002 to Septemher 2004,75 patients with tibial shaft fractures were treated in our department with internal fixation using static interlocking iutramedullary nails.Early dy- namization(6 to 10 weeks postoperative)was adopted in 32 patients (the dynamic group) according to the fracture con- ditions,while the other 43 patients were treated without early dynamization (the non-dynamic group).The healing time of fractures and the rate of delayed union in both groups were documented.Results All the cases were followed up for a mean duration of 6.5 months (range,4 to 13 months).The mean healing time was 115.6 days (range,105 to 126 days) in the dynamic group and 124.5 days (range,119 to 133 days) in the non-dynamic group.The difference was statistically significant between the two groups (P＜0.05).There were two cases (6.2%) of delayed union in the dynamic group and four (9.4%) in the non-dynamic group.The difference was not significant (P＞0.05). Conclusion Early dynamization of interlocking intramedullary nail can promote union of tibial shaft fractures.

Anastomotic fistula occurred after operation in 1 case,being cured and discharged at last,no anastomotic stricture. Conclusion The internal anastomotic appliance of pouch pliers in the anal retention of mesal-low rectal carcinoma is an efficient method with better cost-effectiveness and fewer complications,which is easy to manipulate and popular- ize.

ObjectiveTo probe into the ultrasonic(US) predictive value for metastasis of the cervical lateral lymph node(LNM) with the preoperative ultrasonic examination in thyroid papillary microcarcinoma (PTMC),then,to further evaluate the significance of the preoperative ultrasonic score (US) for predicting metastasis of the cervical lateral lymph node.Methods From May 2004 to May 2011,165 patients diagnosed as PTMC (the ultrasonic imaging of lymph node showed no lateral LNM) were retrospectively analyzed and the US and final pathological data from the cases were collected to determine the relevant factors and different scores.ResultsThere were significant differences(P ＜ 0.05 )among US characteristics of microcalcification,no well-defined margin,tumor located at the upper pole,the perimeter of the tumor contacted with the adjacent capsule of thyroid being ＞25 ％ and the presence of the cervical lateral lymph nodes metastasis in PTMC between the metastatic group and the non-metastatic group.The total scores of the ultrasonic ≥2.5 was the delimitation value,its sensitivity was 86.2％ and its specificity was 89.7％.ConclusionsThe ultrasonic score has definite value in the differential diagnosis for the metastasis of the cervical lateral node in the patients of no lateral LNM,when the ultrasonic score is larger than 2.5,the possibility of the cervical lateral lymph node metastasis should be noticed.

Objective To find the clinical and histopathological predictive factors for lateral lymph node ( LN ) metastasis in thyroid papillary microcarcinoma( PTMC ).Methods From January 2007 to December 2010,141 patients with PTMC underwent central and lateral LN dissections were enrolled in the study.The data from the cases were analyzed retrospectively to determine the predictive factors for lateral LN metastasis.Results Among the aforementioned cases,37 cases ( 26.2％ ) were PTMC with the presence of multifocality,24 ( 16.9％ ) Hashimoto thyroiditis,84 ( 59.6％ ) central LN metastasis,56 ( 39.7％ ) lateral LN metastasis.Multifocality,central LN metastasis,underlying Hashimoto thyroiditis,and upper pole location were significantly related to lateral LN metastasis in univariate analysis( P＜0.05 ).These four factors were also found to be independent predictive factors for lateral LN metastasis in multivariate analysis( P＜0.05 ).9(6.4％ ) of there patients were found to show skip metastasis in which there was lateral LN metastasis but no central LN metastasis.The upper pole location was statistically significantly associated with skip metastasis.Conclusions Patients with multifocality,central LN metastasis,underlying Hashimoto thyroiditis,and upper pole location should be paid more attention to the status of lateral LN.Skip metastasis occurs in a minority of patients with PTMC.Even if there is no central LN metastasis,patients with upper pole lesion should be searched carefully for the lateral cervical LN metastasis.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the mid-term clinical effect of nano-hydroxyapatite and polyamide 66 (n-HA/PA66) intervertebral fusion cage in treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures.Methods A total of 87 patients with thoracolumbar burst fractures were managed by thoracolumbar body resection combined with n-HA/PA66 intervertebral fusion cage from December 2007 to September 2008.The clinical effect, safety and radiographic outcomes were evaluated.Results No nerve damage was deteriorated in all the patients.The neural function was improved for 1-2 grade except for four patients at Frankel grade A.The patients were followed up for mean 21.3 months (17-24 months).The kyphosis was (14.4 ± 12.6)° preoperatively, (3.7 ± 8.7) ° immediately after surgery and (4.0 ± 8.3)° at final follow-up.The distance between the upper and lower vertebral bodies was (96.9 ± 17.2) mm preoperatively, (109.5 ± 17.1) mm immediately after surgery and (108.3 ± 16.4) mm at final follow-up.No cage replacement, internal fixation breakage or neurologic impairment were observed during follow-up period.There were 58 patients with grade E fusion, 22 with grade D fusion and 7 with grade C fusion.ConclusionsAnterior decompression combined with n-HA/PA66 intervertebral fusion cage is an effective method for treatment of thoracolumbar burst fracture.The kyphosis is rectified and the intervertebral distance is corrected, with a high rate of fusion.

This study aims to explore the differences of event-related potential (ERP) between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and normal children, so that these differences provide scientific basis for the diagnosis of ADHD. Eight children were identified to be ADHD group by the diagnostic criteria of DSM-IV (diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders-IV), and the control group also consisted of 8 normal children. Modified visual-continuous performance test (CPT) was used as the experiment paradigm. The experiment included two major conditions, i. e. Go and NoGo. All the 16 subjects participated in the study. A high density EEG acquisition instrument was used to record the EEG signal and processed these EEG data by means of ERP and spectrum analysis. P2-N2 peak-peak value and spectral peak around 11 Hz were analyzed between ADHD subjects and those in the control group, and then statistical tests were applied to these two groups. Results showed that: (1) Under the condition of Go, ADHD group had a significant lower P2-N2 peak-peak value than the values in the control group (P < 0.05); but under the condition of NoGo there was no significant difference in between. (2) Compared with the control group, the ADHD group had significant lower spectral amplitude around 11 Hz under the condition of NoGo (P < 0.05). However, under the condition of Go the difference was insignificant. In conclusion, there is certain cognitive dysfunction in ADHD children. P2-N2 peak-peak value and spectral peak around 11 Hz could be considered as clinical evaluation indexes of ADHD children's cognitive function. These two objective indexes provide an early diagnosis and effective treatment of ADHD.
