ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study the expression of hyaluronan synthasel-3 (HAS1-3) in nasal polyps, and discuss their clinical significance.@*METHOD@#The expression of HA, HAS1, HAS2 and HAS3 in nasal polyps group (25 cases) and inferior turbinate group (15 cases) was detected by immunohistochemistry and semi-quantitative RT-PCR.@*RESULT@#Compared with the control, the expression of HA, HAS1 and HAS3 was higher in nasal polyps (P0. 05).@*CONCLUSION@#The increase of HASI and HAS3 expression may be the main cause of the excessive deposition of HA in nasal polyps, which may play an important role in the pathogenic process of nasal polyps, and become a potential target for therapy of nasal polyps.

Objective To explore the treatment mechanism of safflower injection on sudden deafness through the changes of the hearing threshold, serum superoxide dismntase (SOD) and malonyldialdehyde (MDA) before and after treatment. Methods 40 cases of sudden deafness were divided into two groups: groupⅠ(group with safflower) and groupⅡ (group without safflower). The concentrations of serum MDA and SOD and hearing threshold were detected before and after treatment. 25 cases of normal hearing as the control group. Results (1) The total efficiency in the group Ⅰwas higher than the group Ⅱ (P0.05). Conclusion Safflower injection could scavenge oxygen free radical and improve the quality of hearing recovery.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility of non-nasal packing after correction of nasal septum. Methods53 cases of simple deviation of nasal septum were underwent endoscopic correction of nasal septum.The continuous suction in surgical cavity through catheter without nasal packing after surgery was applied to 46 cases with intact double-mucosa or little wound that could be sutured in front of nasal septum. ResultsOf the 46 patients,the volume of the bleeding 3 days after the operation were(8.1 ± 5.6)ml.The degree of the nasal mucosa edema in 33 patients were lightened than others,the space between the inferior nasal concha and the nasal septum were fine as well as the ventilation of the nasal cavity.Among those cases,there were 13 patients with severe nasal mucosa edema(5 cases were allergic rhinitis)which were treated with ephedrine and furaciline solution or glucocorticoid,as the results,the nasal mucosa shrinked,and the patients could respire well.The catheter were extracted 3 days after the operation until the primary healing.All the cases were healing well without the the nasal septum hematoma and other complications which were follow up more than half a year. ConclusionThe method of continuous suction in surgical cavity through catheter without nasal packing was feasible if double nasal septum mucosa was intact after correction of nasal septum.
