AIM: To evaluate the quality of Rhizoma gastrodiea processed by different drying methods. METHODS: Vacuum freeze drying and oven drying were adopted. The content of gastrodin was determined by RP-HPLC. RESULTS: The content of gastrodin of Rhizoma Gastrodiae processed by vacuum freeze drying was significantly higher than that by boil with water and oven drying. CONCLUSION: The method of vacuum freeze (drying) can prevent Rhizoma Gastrodiae from degradation of gastrodin, to keep the appearance, to make Rhizoma Gastrodiae convenient for further processing.

[Objective]To investigate the clinical value of computed radiography(CR),computed tomography(CT)and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)in spinal tuberculosis.[Method]Forty-one patients with histologically confirmed spinal tuberculosis underwant imaging examinations.Forty-one patients were performed CR,22 CT and 31 MRI.[Result]CR of 38 patients clearly revealed bone changes and narrowed or disappeared disk space.CR of 30 patients well showed the abnormal soft tissue.CT scan of 22 patients clearly depicted calcification and no abnormal was found in pedicles in all the 22 CT scans.CT scan of 21 patients revealed bone changes of vertebral bodies and CT scan of 20 patients showed abnormal soft tissue.The soft tissue was involved in all 31 patients with spinal tuberculosis.Diskspaces were involved in 29 cases and the pedicles were normal in all 31 case.The lesions showed hypointense in T1 scan primarily,hyperintense in T2 scan primarily.[Conclusion]CR is the first imaging approach for spinal tuberculosis.CT well reveal the extent and minute calcification.The extent,abnormal soft-tissue and abnormal disk space are more dramatically demonstrated on MRI imaging.CR,in addition to CT and MRI,is helpful in diagnosis of spinaltubereuinsis.

[Objective]To investigate the value of 16-slice spiral CT(MSCT)postprocessing in styloid process in vivo and provide the vivisection data for diagnosing and curing styloid process syndrome.[Method]Totally 100 volunteers with normal styloid processes underwent 16-slice spiral CT(MSCT). Based on the initial datum,4 kinds of postprocessing including multiple planar reconstruction(MPR), curve planar reconstruction(CPR),surface shaded display(SSD) and volume rendering (VR) were performed.The length and inclination angle of stytoid processes were measured. The distance of between styloid processes and carotid canal external aperture,jugular foramen, stylomastoid foramen ,mastoid process, internal carotid artery and internal jugular vein were surveyed. [Result]The average length of styloid processes was 24.51 mm?3.05 mm, left was 24.33 mm?3.15 mm and right was 24.69 mm?2.95 mm. The anterior inclination angle was 19.35??2.92? and medial was 24.00??4.07?.The distance of between styloid processes and carotid canal external aperture, jugular foramen,stylomastoid foramen ,mastoid process , internal carotid artery and internal jugular vein were 8.53 mm?2.45 mm, 2.87 mm?0.88 mm, 2.34 mm?0.74 mm, 17.23 mm?1.85 mm,6.49 mm?1.58 mm and 3.70 mm?1.46 mm respectively. [Conclusion]Sixteen-slice Spiral CT postprocessing demonstrate the stytoid processes in vivo accurately and fully, among which multiple planar reconstruction and surface shaded display are more valuable, because they can evaluate the length and inclination of the styloid processes and the distance between the processes and their surrounding structures in vivo more accurately.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of controlled subcutaneous analgesia(PCSA) with sufentanil in patients underwent abdominal surgery and the occurrence of adverse reactions. Methods90 patients underwent abdominal surgery were randomly divided intothree groups with 30 cases each. Group Ⅰ :sufentanil 0. 04μg · kg-1 ·h-1 for postoperative analgesia; Group Ⅱ : sufentanil 0. 06μg · kg-1 · h-1 for postoperative analgesia; Group Ⅲ :sufentanil 0.08μg/kg · h for postoperative analgesia;PCSA started at the end of operation with catheter buried in deltoid muscle. Visual analgesia scale(VAS) ,Rasmay scale and side effects were recorded at 4,8,16,24 and 48h after operation. ResultsVAS scores decreased significantly in group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ compared with that in group Ⅰ ( all P ＜ 0.05) ;There were no differences of Ramsay scores between groups ( all P ＞ 0. 05) ;There were three cases of respiratory depression in group Ⅲ. ConclusionPCSA with sufentanil (0.06μg/kg) had exact analgesic effects for postoperative abdominal surgery patients with less adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the advantage of separate bolus injection technique in CT urography (CTU) improving the display of the whole urinary tract.Methods Sixty cases of CTU examination,were divided into observation group and control group by random digits table with 30 cases each,observation group used separate bolus injection technique and control group used single bolus injection technique.The scanning included routine scanning,cortical phase,medullary phase and lag phase.Reconstruction of lag phase displayed the whole urinary tract.Then the image quality was compared between two groups.Results The whole urinary tract showed excellent in 12 cases (40.0％,12/30),good in 17 cases (56.7％,17/30),normal in 1 case (3.3％,1/30) in control group,which showed excellent in 23 cases (76.7％,23/30),good in 7 cases (23.3％,7/30) in observation group,there was significant difference in excellent rate between two groups (P ＜ 0.01).The CT value of starting of ureter was (238.6 ± 82.5) HU,middle-lower ureter was (245.9 ± 112.3) HU in control group and (239.0 ± 93.8),(235.3 ± 74.6) HU in observation group,there was no significant difference between two groups (P ＞0.05).There was no difference in developing of urolithiasis between two bolus injection techniques.Conclusion The application of separate bolus injection technique in CTU examination can reduce the dose of the first contrast material and contrast material reaction,and receive high-quality image of the whole urinary tract.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on seizure frequency in epilepsy patients complicated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods Subjects were divided into CPAP group (20 subjects) and medication group (22 subjects) according to whether they can tolerate CPAP. CPAP group were treated with CPAP combined with antiepileptic drugs. Medication group were treated with antiepileptic drugs alone. Seizure frequency and apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) were compared between groups before and after 4 weeks and 24 weeks of treatment. Results Baseline seizure frequency and apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) were compared between groups(P>0.05). A sig?nificant reduction of seizure frequency was observed in CPAP group after 4 weeks and 24 weeks of treatment compared to that before treatment (P<0.01). In medication group, no significant difference in seizure frequency was noted betweem 4 weeks and 24 weeks after treatment compared to that before treatment(P>0.05). A significant reduction of AHI was ob?served in the CPAP group after 24 weeks of treatment compared to that before treatment (P<0.01), but no change of AHI by treatment was observed in medication group (P>0.05). Conclusion Treatment of OSA in patients complicated with epilep?sy may improve seizure control in short and long term, but longer observation time and more samples are needed for further research.

reression of M 2 receptor mRNA of rat myocardium intoxicated by soman under high altitude hypoxia. Methods The expressions of M 2 receptor mRNA under hypoxia, soman intoxication and soman intoxication under hypoxia were detected by semi quantitative RT PCR, respectively. Results The expression of M 2 receptor mRNA increased in the high altitude hypoxia group. Both simple soman intoxication and combined soman intoxication and hypoxia decreased the expression of M 2 receptor rapidly. But under hypoxia, the expression increased significantly at 12 h and 24 h. Conclusion M 2 receptor was sensitive to nerve agents. Compared to simple soman intoxication group, the expression of M 2 receptor increased in combined soman intoxication and hypoxia group. This may be one of the major factors leading to aggravation of the injury of heart function by nerve agents in high altitude area.

Objective To study prognosis of patients with fulminant hepatitis after plasma ex- change treatment using model for end-stage liver disease(MELD)scoring system.Methods 160 pa- tients were randomly divided into plasma exchange group and control group,and MELD score was calculated according to the original formula for each patient.The efficacy of plasma exchange was as- sessed by mortality and improvement in biochemical parameters and MELD score.Results The levels of total bilirubin(TBIL),INR and MELD score of patients whose MELD scores were between 30 and 40[TBIL,(379.4?40.4)?mol/L; INR,2.5?0.2; MELD,30.8?3.8]were lower than before PE treatment[TBIL,(509.7?64.6)?mol/L;INR,3.5?0.3;MELD,37.3?3.5].The levels of TBIL and INR and MELD score of patients whose MELD scores were higher than 40 [TBIL,(595.6?61.5)?mol/L;INR,3.8?0.4;MELD,39.8?3.5]were lower than before PE treatmem [TBIL, (650.4?66.3)?mol/L;INR,4.4?0.6;MELD,45.2?4.2].The mortality of patients in PE group with MELD score from 30 and 40 was 50.0%,while it was 86.7% in control group,showing significant differ- ence between PE group and control group(P＜0.01).The mortality of patients with MELD scores higher than 40 was 91.2% in PE group and 100% in control group,showing no significant difference between these two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions Plasma exchange treatment can decrease the serum TBIL level, INR and MELD score of patients with fulminant hepatitis and improve liver function.Compared with the control group,plasma exchange can significantly decrease the mortality of patients in PE group with MELD score from 30 to 40,but no effect on patients with MELD score higher than 40.
