To develop a timesaving and easy operating Reverse Phase (RP) chromatography method, we adopted Thermo Pierce RP C18 Tip to separate small amount hippocampus peptide mixtures and to compare with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). According to the separation performance of 4 ACN gradient optimization methods, we determined the best ACN concentration gradient. The results showed that, the experiment took only 10 min by separating with eight ACN concentration gradient, which accounted 1/4 for HPLC. But as for the identified proteins, RP C18 Tip accounted 85.5% for HPLC. ACN gradient of 5%, 15%, 20% and 90% had best repeatability (P = 0.429) and result for separating 30 μg peptides. This method is easy to operate, timesaving and has low cost. It could be used into pretreatment of small amount complex proteomic samples.

Conclusion Correct diagnosis and appropriate surgery for SMAS lead to satisfactory outcomes.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of continual needle knife treatment for cervical spondylosis and whether it increases adverse reactions and the number of treatments.MethodNinety-two patients with cervical spondylosis were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 47 cases and a control group of 45 cases. The treatment group received continual needle knife therapy once every day and the control group, interrupted needle knifetherapy once 10 days.ResultThere were no statistically significant differences in the number of treatments, the total efficacy rate and postoperative adverse reactions between thetwo groups (P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences inthe treatment period and cure rate between the two groups (P<0.05). The treatment period was significantly shorter in the treatment group than in the control group(P<0.05). The cure rate was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the controlgroup(P<0.05).ConclusionContinual needle knife therapy cannot increase postoperative adverse reactions and the number of treatments. It can significantly shorten the treatment period, avoid another injury and increase the cure rate in the patients.

The comprehensive nursing intervention has far-reaching implications for the rehabilitation of children with severe burns.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of re operation for postoperative recurrent gastric carcinoma. Methods From 1986 to 2001, fifty one patients with postoperative local recurrence of gastric carcinoma were admitted into our hospital. The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Results Of 51 cases, there were 31 cases with recurrence within the stump stomach and 20 with local and metastatic recurrence. Twenty seven cases were treated by radical resection, 3 cases by palliative residual stomach resection, 15 cases by gastrojejunostomy or gastroenterostomy, 6 cases by simple exploration. Pathological examination of 30 cases revealed perianastomosis recurrence in 10 cases, stump stomach carcinoma in 20 cases. The 1,3,5 year survival rate of 27 cases after radical resection was 88%, 58%, 19% respectively. The survival time of palliative and comprehensive treatment group was 6 to 24 months and mean survival time was 16 months, while all patients undergoing simple exploration and abdominal cavity chemotherapy died after 2 to 7 months. Conclusion Most postoperative recurrent gastric carcinoma are within the residual stomach and hence could be treated by reoperative resection.
