RESUMO
Objective To design an electrical system of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter for children and adults uses.Methods The shock wave kernel parameters of child energy section of Dornier Delta Ⅱ lithotripter were tested such as peak sound pressure,pressure pulse width and pressure pulse rise time,and then energy calibration was executed for HK.ESWL008 child extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter to make the kernel parameters of the two lithotripters the same or similar to each other.An electrical system was designed with PLC system as the core control unit,involving in wave source 3D motion,large and small C-arms motion,water circulation system,B-type ultrasound positioning system,high-frequency X-ray imaging system,high-voltage condenser charging and discharging system,console and bedside-box-controlled display system as well as electromagnetic compatibility.Results Within A,B,C,1 and 2 energy sections for child lithotripsy the maximum and average differences between the kernel parameters of the two lithotripters were 7.1％ and 3.8％ respectively.There was no difference between the clinical experience by the two lithotripters,and HK.ESWL-008 child extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter passed EMC and safety detections by Guangdong Medical Devices Quality Surveillance and Test Institute of CFDA.Conclusion HK.ESWL-008 child extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter can be used for children lithotripsy clinically.
RESUMO
Background: Insomnia often responds to the orexin receptor antagonist suvorexant. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of suvorexant for Chinese patients with primary insomnia over 6 months. Methods: A total of 120 patients with primary insomnia were assigned randomly to two groups that received placebo or suvorexant (40 mg) for 6 months. The primary outcomes were the total sleep time (sTST), time to sleep onset (sTSO), and sleep quality (sQUAL). The secondary outcomes were the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score and adverse events. Results: A total of 111 patients completed the study and all of them were included in the final analysis. Suvorexant showed greater efficacy than the placebo in enhancing sTST, sTSO, sQUAL and ISI score at months 1 and 6. Serious adverse events were documented in 2 patients (3.3%) in the suvorexant group and 1 patients (1.7%) in the placebo group. The most common adverse event was somnolence, which occurred in 7 patients (11.7%) in the suvorexant group and 2 patients (3.3%) in the placebo group. No death related to suvorexant treatment was recorded. Conclusions: Suvorexant was efficacious and well-tolerated in a group of Chinese patients with primary insomnia over 6 months.

Objective:To investigate the content rationality of antimicrobial agent thimerosal in chloramphenicol eye drops. Meth-ods:Chloramphenicol eye drops with thimerosal at different concentrations were prepared, and the antimicrobial activity was studied. Results:When the test solution contained 0. 02 mg·ml-1 thimerosal, the antimicrobial activity could achieve the requirement in the pharmacopoeia. Conclusion:Thimerosal at different concentrations in the commercial chloramphenicol eye drops all can reach the anti-microbial effect. However, the thimerosal concentration in some eye drops is unreasonably high, which should be reduced.
RESUMO
Objective: To study whether domestic chloramphenicol eye drops with different ethylparabenin content meet the re-quirements in Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Methods:Antimicrobial effect test was used to examine the antimicrobial effect of the different eye drops. Results:The antimicrobial effect of the eye drops was in compliance with the requirements in the pharmacopoeia. Conclu-sion:The ethylparabenin concentration in the eye drops is higher than necessary. Boric acid and borax not only can adjust pH, but also show antimicrobial effect.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of radiofrequency on sodium/iodide symporter expression in thyroid cancer cell. Methods 29 thyroid cancer patients with low or no expression of sodium/iodide symporter underwent radiofrequency ablation combining 131I radiotherapy. Whole-body nuclide imaging and serum Ig were examined before and after radiofrequency ablation. Results Whole-body nuclide imaging showed that there were 4 cases (4/29) positive before radiofrequency ablation, 19 cases (19/29) positive two weeks after radiofrequency ablation and 12 cases (12/29) positive four weeks after radiofrequency ablation. Four weeks after radiofrequency ablation, 4 cases showed an increased serum Ig level, 17 cases with a decreased serum Ig level and 17 cases without any change in serum Ig level. The total effective cases were 25 (25/29) and 15 cases (15/29) were completely cured. Conclusion Radiofrequency ablation induces thyroid cancer cells without sodium/iodide symporter expression to resume iodine intake and thus increased clinical effect of 131I on undifferentiated thyroid cancer.
RESUMO
Objective To study the significance of dissection and exposure of the recurrent laryngeal nerve(RLN) in thyroid surgery.Methods The clinical data of 1 082 patients who had undergone operations on thyroid were retrospectively reviewed.All cases were routinely operated with dissection and exposure of RLN.Results Six cases had injury of RLN(0.5%),3 cases showed parathyroid insufficiency(0.3%)and 2 cases had injury of the superior laryngeal nerve(0.2%) ofter operation.The incidence of operative complications in thyroid surgery was closely related with if exposure of the RLN.Conclusions Exposure of the recurrent laryngeal nerve is a key measure to decrease injury of parathyroids,superior laryngeal nerve and recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroid surgery.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of lymph node micrometastases in central group(Ⅵ) lymph node in follicular carcinoma of thyroid.Methods Three hundred and twenty-six negative neck lymph nodes in 68 cases on routine pathological examination(pN0) were examined by keratin-19 monoclonal antibody and S-P immunohistochemistry to detect expression of keratin-19 to confirm lymph node micrometastasis in each neck lymph node,and compare the pathological type and follow-up data of all cases.ResultsThere were 46 neck lymph nodes showed positive lymph node micrometastasis among 326 negative neck lymph nodes that included 4 lymph nodes in group Ⅱ(4/42),5 lymph nodes in group Ⅲ(5/34),5 lymph nodes in group Ⅳ(5/49),1 lymph node in groupⅤ(1/17) and 31 lymph nodes in group Ⅵ(31/184).6 in 14 cases with positive lymph node micrometastases showed distant metastasis or local recurrence,but only 3 in 54 cases with negative lymph node that micrometastases distant metastasis or local recurrence(P
