RESUMO
OBJECTIVE： To evaluate the literature quality of systematic reviews/Meta-analysis of oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation （LDH） using radar plot， and to provide scientific and effective evidence for clinical use of medicine. METHODS： Retrieving CNKI， VIP， Wanfang database， CBM， PubMed， Cochrane library and Embase during the establishement of database to Oct. 1st， 2018， the literatures about systematic reviews/Meta-analysis of oral administration of TCM in the treatment of LDH were collected. After data extraction of literatures met inclusion criteria， the quality literatures were evaluated from 6 aspects of radar plot （year of publication， design type， AMSTAR methodological quality evaluation， PRISMA reprot quality evaluation， homogeneous， publication bias risk）. The average score of rank number was calculated. Moreover， Excel 2010， Adobe Illustrator CC and other software were used to draw and optimize the radar plot. RESULTS： A total of 6 qualified literatures were included； average score of rank number of 6 aspects were 3.83， 4.67， 3.83， 3.67， 6.00， 4.67， scoring 4.56 in average. Multivariate evaluation of radar plot showed that 2 studies had higher qualities and only 1 study had lower qualities relatively. However， problems could be found such as information selection bias， inclusion and exclusion criteria， publication situation， limitations， project registration. CONCLUSIONS： The literature quality of systematic review/Meta-analysis of oral administration of TCM in the treatment of LDH need to be improved， starting with strengthening methodological quality and reporting quality. Radar plot is a visual and effective method of graphic evaluation， which is worth popularizing and applying in the future.
RESUMO
Objective To study the mechanical characteristics of lumbar vertebral manipulation by lifting-rotating and oblique-pulling using multi-film pressure measurement system. Methods Twenty-one male operators were divided into groups of experts, skilled operators and beginners. Everyone completed 7 actions of Lin’s lumbar manipulation continuously, and repeated 3 times. The graphs and data were collected and processed. Results The time-force curve by the experts had regularity. The average pre-load force was (147.25±26.04) N, duration was (0.98±0.20) s, the average minimum force was (79.22±9.50) N, the maximum impact force was (706.26±56.21) N, the flip time was (0.44±0.09) s, and flip speed was (1 666.33±411.91) N/s, the impulse was (310.95±56.67) N·s. The curve graphs and the index by the skilled operators were similar to those by the experts, but the average maximum impact force was (464.51±53.49) N, which was relatively smaller. The curve graphs by the beginners could be broadly divided into three categories. Class Ⅰ was chaotic and unregulated; Class Ⅱ only had impact force and did not have pre-load force, and the maximum impact force varied in size; Class Ⅲ had both impact force and pre-load force, but the forces were relatively small and stable. Conclusions The multi-film pressure measurement system can preferably display the mechanical characteristics of manipulation by lifting-rotating and oblique-pulling, which is an ideal testing tool for quantitative research on mechanical parameters of Lin’s lumbar vertebral manipulation. The experimental results provide a scientific basis for visualization, quantification and standardization of the manipulation.

RESUMO
ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of superficial surround needling plus quadriceps femoris training in treating knee osteoarthritis and observe electromyographic amplitude variations by knee osteoarthritis.MethodNinety patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 45 cases each. The treatment group received superficial surround needling plus quadriceps femoris training and the control group, acupuncture alone. Both groups were treated for two weeks. Pre-treatment and post-treatment knee joint functions were scored and compared using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Lysholm Knee Score Scale and the electromyographic integral value. Meanwhile, electromyography was performed and electromyographic amplitude variations by knee osteoarthritis were compared between the two groups of patients.ResultThe total efficacy rate was 88.9% in the treatment group and 60.0% in the control group. It was higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the VAS score, the Lysholm score and the electromyographic integral value were significantly better in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionSuperficial surround needling plus quadriceps femoris training has a marked therapeutic effect on knee osteoarthritis.

RESUMO
Objective To explore the optimized range of normal tissue ablation around the tumor by HIFU in combination with UCA for VX2 liver tumors in rabbits. Methods In this study,51 rabbit models with implanted fiver VX2 tumors were randomly divided into 3 groups:ablating the tumor only(group A)、ablating the tumor and 2 mm eircumferential normal tissue(group B)、and 4 mm normal tissue around the tumor(group C).After HIFU+UCA treatment,the pathology of the targeting tissues,the level of serum ALT,the metastases in the liver、lungs and abdominal cavity,and the survival time were compared with each other. Results After treatment coagulative necrosis was observed in all the target tissues.Serum ALT level between each two groups were statistically different on d3 and d5(F=12.933、18.37,P＜0.01、＜0.01),and the level of ALT in group C was the hightest.The ALT level in group A was significantly higher than group B or group C on the 14th day(F=17.2,P＜0.01).Metastases in group A was significantly higher than group B or group C,and there were no statistically different between group B and C (P=0.353、0.332、0.380).The survival time both in group B and group C were significantly longer than group A(48±13.6,51±12.1 vs 29±5.4),and there were no statistically difference between group B and C(P＞0.05). Conclusions Tumor eradication can be significantly promoted when 2mm normal liver tissue around the tumor is ablated by HIFU+UCA.
