Objective To explore particularity of the diagnosis and treatment with massive bilateral chronic subdural hematoma (BCSDH) in elders.Method The clinical data of 25 elders with BCSDH treated in our hospital from 2007 to 2011 were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were examined with computerized tomography (CT) of 25 patients through the bilateral trephined hole.Results Twenty-four patients recovered better,the symptom significantly improved.After operative 1 month,14 patients? hematoma disappear,6 patents only had little bilateral subdural effusion,4 patents only had little unilateral subdural effusion.One patient appeared massive subdural effusion on the second day after operation,the familiality gave up therapy,and the patient was dead.Conclusion CT scanning should be taken before you make correct diagnisis.Bilateral single twist-drill craniostomy with irrigation and drainage is a chief method to massive BCSDH.

Heart transplantation(HT) has been an effective method to treat end-stage heart disease, one main factor affecting the long-term survival rate is acute and/or chronic rejection after HT. Trans internal jugular endomyocardial biopsy(EMB) has been the "gold standard" to judge the rejection after HT, but it is also limited. Electrocardiogram ,echocardiogram, immunological monitoring and imaging monitoring can judge the rejection after HT and induce the EMB.

AIM: To study mouse's skin ulcer pharmacodynamics of Allantoin Compound Ointment. METHODS: The wounded and scalded skin ulcer models of mice were est ablished. The skin ulcer area of mice was treated with Allantoin Compound Ointme nt and the control group was also ser, and the inflammatory infiltration of the ulcer was observed under the microscope. RESULTS: Compared with the self-control group, the skin ulcer area o f mice treated with Allantoin Compound Ointment reduced obviously (P

Objective To explore inhibitory effects of ginsenoside on the proliferation of human thyroid canc-er SW579 cells in vitro and expression of C -myc and Bcl -2 protein.Methods Human thyroid cancer SW579 cells were cultured according to conventional method.The study was divided into the control group and ginsenoside group (20,40,8ug/mL).Inhibitory role of ginsenoside on proliferation of SW579 cells was detected by MTT assay.Western-blot method was used to determine expression levels of C -myc and Bcl -2 protein in different group.Results The inhibition rates of 20,40,80μg/mL ginsenoside to SW579 thyroid carcinoma cell were 22.35%,51.76% and 68.24% respectively.Which meaned ginsenoside had obvious inhibitory effect compared with the control group(P <0.01),and inhibition increased with the increase of solubility(P <0.01).C -myc and Bcl -2 protein were reduced progressively in place with the increase of ginsenoside concentration by Western -Blot analysis (P <0.01 ).Conclusion Gisenoside may play the inhibitory role on proliferation of human thyroid cancer SW579 cells in vitro, and its mechanism may be related with down -regulation of C -myc and Bcl -2 protein.

Objective To observe inhibitory effects of Ginsenoside on the proliferation cultured stem cells of human rectal carcinoma in vitro.Methods Tumor stem cells of rectal carcinoma in human were cultured in vitro and divided into saline water group,reltitrexed group(3mg/mL),and Ginsenoside(25μg/mL)plus reltitrexed(3mg/mL) group,with dosage of qd and for 2 weeks.Cells growth was observed under the microscope,and immunofluorescence staining was used to detect CD +133 expression of rectal carcinoma cells.MTT colorimetric method was taken to measure inhibitory of Ginsenoside on proliferation of tumor stem cells of rectal carcinoma.Apoptosis of tumor stem cells of rec-tal carcinoma lead by Ginsenoside was observed by DAPI staining.Results Part of cells were growing up like ball and CD +133 immunofluorescence staining was positive.Inhibitory role of Ginsenoside plus reltitrexed on CD +133 cells of rectal carcinoma appeared on the first day,which was bigger than that of retitrexed by MTT method (P =0.03).Com-pared with the retitrexed group,Gisenoside combined with reltitrexed reduced CD +133 cells expression of rectal carcino-ma,in which optical density and area density of CD +133 cells were obviously decreased with statistical significance (P =0.007,P =0.006,respectively).Conclusion Gisenoside plays the remarkably inhibitory role on proliferation of CD +133 cells of rectal carcinoma.

Objective: To use ultrasound elasticity imaging (UEI) technology for evaluating the elasticity changes of the deep vein thrombosis (DVT) at different stages. Methods: Conventional ultrasonic diagnoses were performed in 49 patients with DVT and the patients were divided into acute stage, sub-acute stage, and chronic stage. The elastic image characteristics of the thrombosis were observed at different stages and the strain ratio (B/A) between the muscle tissue around the vein and the thrombosis was calculated. Results: (1) In ultrasound elasticity image, the acute thrombosis was mainly red, the sub-acute thrombosis was green, and the chronic thrombosis was blue. (2)The strain ratio of the sub-acute thrombosis group and the chronic thrombosis group were significantly higher than that of the acute thrombosis group(P<0.001, P<0.05), and the strain ratio of the chronic thrombosis group was significantly higher than that of the sub-acute thrombosis group(P<0.05). Conclusion: UEI technology can be used to evaluate the elastic changes in different stages of the deep vein thrombosis, and it can help to select treatments for thrombosis and predicting the complications.

Techniques for functional brain imaging are critical to analyze the information processing of brain and to reveal the advanced functions in brain. These techniques are the hot topics of international research. Great success has been obtained with neuroimaging techniques in the fields of neuroscience research and clinical diagnosis. Existing brain functional imaging such as magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI),positron emission tomography (PET),electroencephalogram (EEG),magnetoencephalography (MEG) and so on,have been successfully used to study brain function. However,these methods have some limitations unavoidably in the temporal or spatial resolution at present. Comparatively,the optical imaging technologies of brain function show their unique charms. Laser speckle imaging (LSI) and intrinsic optical signals imaging (IOSI) stand out because they offer a superior combination of spatial sampling,spatial resolution and temporal resolution; on the other hand,they have no need to use exogenous contrast agents. Great developments also have been obtained in both techniques and applications of brain optical imaging,and they have become powerful tools for in vivo studying functional architecture and pathophysiology in cerebral cortex by monitoring hemodynamics. However,the two optical imaging techniques are confronted with some challenges.
