Objective Patients with previous failed scoliosis surgery were managed by revision surgery,the reasons, methods and results of revision surgery were evaluated and analyzed. Methods Thir-ty-six patients with previous failed scoliosis surgery underwent revision surgery between June 1996 and Au-gust 2002. There were 15 males and 21 females with an average age of 16.8 years. The patients had 1.57 operations on average (1 for 27 cases, 2 for 8 cases and 3 for 1 case). The reasons for revision surgery were failure of previous instrumentation (6 cases), deterioration of the deformity (18 cases), and unsatisfactory re-sults with previous surgery (12 cases). Thorough radiographic evaluations including plain X-ray, CT scan and MRI were taken for each patient pre-operatively. The preoperative average Cobb angle for scoliosis was 76.2?(52?-108?)?Of 36 patients, there were 11 with kyphosis and the preoperative average Cobb angle was 53?(36?-79?). The involved spines in the deformity were 10.1 on average (8-13 levels). The surgical proce-dures included removal of previous instrumentation in 21 cases, staged trans-thoracic anterior release in 5 cases with rigid curve, and osteotomy passing through articular joints and laminae on previous fusion mass in 18 cases. All patients underwent trans-pedicular fixation and fusion as well. The clinical and radiographic results were evaluated post-operatively. Results All patients underwent surgery safely. The average opera-tive time was 3.8 hours (2.8-5.1 h) and the average blood loss was 817 ml(630-1 800 ml). There were no serious complications such as neurological injury. The average correction was 48? (22?-64?, 56%) for scolio-sis, and 47? (17?-52?, 72%) for kyphosis respectively. All patients were followed up at least 12 months (12-76 months). There was no loss of correction found during follow up and all patients achieved solid fu-sion. At the last follow up, 33 patients (91.7%) were satisfied with the results of revision surgery. Conclusion Revision surgery for failed scoliosis surgery is challenging because of technical difficulties for the procedure and higher risk for neurological injury. Extreme caution must be taken for each patient during pre-operative examination and evaluation. If appropriate surgical procedure including staged anterior re-lease, posterior osteotomy and trans-pedicular fixation is properly selected according individual deformity, the satisfactory results can be achieved.

The health workforce plays an important role in the development of township hospitals. It builds up the comprehensive evaluation index system as the first time, based on data of township hospitals from 29 provinces, to evaluate the allocation of the health workforce in primary medical institutions in rural China. The empirical results show that the core workforce allocation of Chinese township hospitals has largely focused on the local health status, which shows good fairness of allocation. Meanwhile, the equity level of the core workforce allocation is not far behind the overall fairness level, and both are slightly higher than the critical value. The core workforce allocation is in good consistency with the local level of economic development.

Over 3 000 pictures on five major parasites(schistosome,filaria,hookworm,leishmania and plas-modium)collected between 1950 and 1990 were edited and a searching system was established. The data can be used with a network-based version through a LAN system in the Institute. The adoption of Digital Computerized Management makes it possible for sharing resources in human parasitology.

Objective To investigate the correlation between resistin,adiponectin and the blood stasis syndrome in diabetic and primary hypertension patients.Method The primary hypertension and diabetes patients were drawn vein blood to make plasma and serum.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) method was used in checking serum adiponectin and resistin.Radioimmuoassay method was applied in checking serum insulin,leptin,ET and tumor necrosis factor(TNF).The fasting blood sugar,total cholesterol(TC),triamid-glycerin(TG),high dense lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL) and low dense lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL) were detected by the chemi-enzymic method.The relation between the indexes and blood stasis syndrome was analyzed by SAS9.1 for windows.Results The detectable rate of the blood stasis syndrome in the diabetic patients was 0.423,while 0.246 in the primary hypertension patients.The difference was significant in statistics.Incidence of blood stasis syndrome increased with the course of illness.Compared with the non-blood stasis syndrome group,the content of leptin,ET and TNF in the blood stasis syndrome group significantly raised,but the content of adiponectin and insulin diminished.The content of resistin did not have obviously change.Compared with the primary hypertension patients,the level of leptin,adiponectin,resistin,insulin in the diabetic patients raised,but there wasn't significant difference in the level of ET and TNF.Conclusions There is negative correlation between adiponectin and the blood stasis syndrome.The link between obesity and the blood stasis syndrome may be through fat factor regulating vasoactive factor.The blood stasis syndrome caused by obesity maybe have nothing to do with the consistency of resistin.

Objective To introduce a new flap of cutaneous branches of posterior tibial artery on the part of superior medial malleolus to repair soft tissues defect on the feet and the ankles Methods From October 1997 to December 2001,a flap with the pedicle called cutaneous branches of posterior tibial artery on the part of superior medial malleolus were used to repair 11 cases which suffered skin and soft tissue defect on the feet and the ankles due to various trauma Results The flaps were survived completely on 10 cases and the flaps distal had about 2 cm necrosis on 1 case,the size of the flap ranged from 28 cn?11 cm to 8 cm?6 cm,all of the 11 cases were evaluated as satisfactory after 6 months to 2 years follow-up Conclusions The new procedure can repair mostly soft tissue defect on the foot and the ankle and does not sacrifice the major arteries. The flap is easy to be performed,and it is an safety and ideal method.

Objective: During the five years period from 2006 to 2010, the Chinese government had increased the special funding for primary maternal and child health enterprise to analyze the total amount and constitution of the special funding respectively. Methods: From the perspective of special funding investment in the eastern, central and western regions with different levels of economic development, to perform the comparative analysis. Results and Conclusion:The government’s overall investment on maternal and child special funds is in increasing trend, the average per capita amount of special funds invested in west region is higher than the eastern and central region; in the aspect of investment constitution , the central government special funds for women and children is the main source, which accounts for more than 85% of total investment, the reducing and eliminating items in eastern and western regions and the inpatient childbirth subsidy items constitute the major component of special funding for primary maternal and child health in corresponding region. Based on the analysis of investment on the condition of primary maternal and child health , policy recommendations for further development of the cause of women and children are provided.
