The curative effect is not satisfactory as far as its treatment by western and traditional Chinese medicine is concerned, which has a long course of treatment and a high recurrent rate. 70 cases of external humeral epicondylitis were treated by massotherapy after local blocking from August 1995 to October 1997 at this hospital with satisfactory therapeutic effects.Clinical DataOf the 70 cases in this series treated by massotherapy after local blocking, 30 were males and 40 females, ranging in age from 19 to 65 years. 55 cases were 30 to 50 years old, 20 had the left elbow affected and 50 the right elbow. 7 cases had a history of trauma, 50 a history of chronic strain, and 13 the cause unknown. The shortest duration of disease was 15 days and the longest 24 months.Among 50 cases in the control group treated by massotherapy, 20 cases were males and 30 females, ranging in age from 16 to 58 years. 40 cases were 30 to 50 years old. 15 cases were affected on the left elbow and 35 on the right elbow. 6 cases had a history of trauma, 32 a history of chronic strain, and 12 the cause unknown. The shortest duration of diseases was 7 days and the longest 22 months.展开更多

Clinically, it is mainly characterized by arthralgia, swelling, and motor impairment. Since the knee joint is the load-bearing joint of the human body, and is susceptible to trauma, gonitis tends to have the highest morbidity in the four limbs, which manifests itself arthritis of patella and femur at the early stage; narrowness or disappearance of the medial joint space at the mid stage; and damage of the cartilage accompanied with flexion deformity at the late stage. In recent years, based on the experience of Prof. Cao Yiming, the author has treated 47 cases of gonitis by combined use of Chinese drugs and acupuncture, and obtained satisfactory therapeutic results as reported in the following.展开更多

The reasons for the differences in leaf wax δDn-alkane values between woods and grasses, however, remain unclear. In this study, we measured the δD values of soil water （δDsw）, leaf water （δDlw）, and leaf wax n-alkane （δDn-alkane） for woods and grasses. We found no significant differences in the δD values of soil water （P = 0.82） and leaf water （P= 0.74） between the two life forms of plants. Therefore, the differences in leaf wax δDn-alkane values between woods and grasses may correlate with inherent properties of different plant life forms, such as leaf structures, biosynthetic processes, and leaf morphologies. Moreover, it is also possible that soil water with different 6Dsw at different depths utilized by woods and grasses may be responsible for some of the differences in leaf wax δDn-alkane values between the two life forms of plants, if woods mainly use soil water from the 〉100 cm depth, whereas grasses mainly use soil water from the 〈100 cm depth. The results of this work allow us to better understand the leaf wax δDn-alkane values of different plant life forms in a region.展开更多
