OBJECTIVETo analyze and summarize the characteristics and treatment of acute spinal cord decompression sickness. To explore the factors that influence the treatment effect.
METHODS77 cases of acute spinal cord decompression sickness patients should be divided into 4 groups according to the pressurized treatment and drug treatment options. They were group I, group II, group III and group IV. At the same time they were get hyperbaric oxygen therapy and other treatment. The evaluation index, were Frankel function classification and paraplegia index. There were 17 factors that affected the treatment effect.
RESULTSThe rate of early cure was 57.14% (44/77). The rate of late cure was 74.03% (57/77). Their difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In 3 months and 1 year the cure rate of group IV and group B were the highest. But there was no difference between them(P>0.05). They were higher than group ii and group I (P<0.05). The Frankel function classification in 3months and 1 year in each group was higher than before treatment (P<0.05). The paraplegia index in 3 months and 1 year in each group was lower than before treatment (P<0.05). In 3 months and 1 year the Frankel function classification was increased gradually and the paraplegia index was decreased gradually in group I , group II, group III (P<0.05). In group IV and group III the Frankel function and the paraplegia index had not significant difference (P>0.05). Among the 17 factors that affect the treatment effect there are 9 factors that affect the proportion of the large.
CONCLUSIONSThe first choice of treatment method for the patients with acute spinal cord decompression sickness would be group III. Drug therapy was also imporpant. At the same time the hyperbaric oxygen therapy and other treatments were taken. Although the cure rate was not high in this article. But most of the cure is within 3 months. Within 1 year.the cure rate still could be improved. 9 factors that affect the efficacy of acute spinal cord decompression sickness was more noteworthy.

Objective:To ascertain the activity concentration of gross α and β in foods around Fuqing nuclear power plant (NPP) site.Methods:Totally 167 food samples of 25 kinds within 6 categories were collected from the surveillance areas and control areas around Fuqing NPP site. The total radioactivity was analyzed using the food samples. Paired rank sum test was used to determine the influence of the operation of Fuqing NPP on the total radioactivity in foods in surrounding areas. The multiple local rank sum test was used to assess the difference in total radioactivity in different types of foods.Results:The average gross α in poultry meat, vegetables, crops, aquatic products, milk and tea was 0.65, 1.96, 1.41, 3.80, 1.33, 7.67 Bq/kg in surveillance areas and 0.56, 3.24, 2.04, 3.70, 2.24, 9.05 Bq/kg in reference areas, respectively, around Fuqing NPP site. The average gross β (subtracting 40K) in poultry meat, vegetables, crops, aquatic products, milk and tea was 7.0, 10.5, 6.1, 23.5, 24.7, 8.6 Bq/kg in surveillance areas and 7.4, 8.3, 14.5, 22.1, 21.3, 11.0 Bq/kg in reference areas, respectively, around Fuqing NPP site. The Wilcoxon paired rank test showed that there was no significant difference in the gross α and β in foods between surveillance and reference areas around Fuqing NPP site ( P>0.05). The Kruskal-Wallis H test showed that the radioactivity of gross α and β in different foods was statistically significant ( χ2=23.325, 13.918, P<0.05). Conclusions:The increase was not found in total radioactivity in the surrounding foods since the operation of Fuqing NPP in 2015.

Objective:To evaluate the performance of two commercial EIA kits for the detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) neutralizing antibodies.Methods:Two commercial SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody ELISA test kits (A and B) were used to detect serum panel consists of the following sera: 44 collected before vaccination, 120 collected one month after vaccination and 64 collected six months after recovery from convalescent patients of COVID-19. In the meantime, the above samples were also taken for live virus micro-neutralization test (micro-NT) indicated as the 50% neutralization antibody titer (NT 50). The consistency of qualitative and quantitative results between the two commercial kits and live virus neutralization test was analyzed. Results:Taking the micro-NT results as the standard, the positive coincidence rates of A and B kits were 97.40% and 100.00%, respectively; the negative coincidence rates were 97.30% and 95.95%, respectively; the Youden indices were 0.95 and 0.96, respectively. Furthermore, quantitative analysis indicated that the correlation coefficients between A and B kits and micro-NT results were 0.24 ( P<0.05) and 0.52 ( P<0.000 1) for samples collected after vaccination, respectively; while the correlation coefficients were 0.81 ( P<0.000 1) and 0.89 ( P<0.000 1) for convalescent serum samples, respectively. Conclusions:The results obtained by the two commercial neutralizing antibody detection kits were in good agreement with the qualitative results of micro-NT. The neutralizing antibody titers in convalescent serum samples detected by the two kits showed a stronger correlation with the micro-NT results.
