Chinese Journal of Trauma 2003;0(12):-
Objective To investigate the risk and prediction factors for tracheotomy after cervical spinal injuries. Methods A retrospective analysis was done on 1 064 cases suffering from cervical spinal injuries, of which, according to nerve function evaluation criteria of American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA), there were 243 cases at Grade A,327 at Grade B, 306 at Grade C and 188 at Grade D. Except for seven cases with brain injuries, trachea injuries, with a tracheotomy before hospitalization, a total of 106 cases needed tracheotomy during their hospitalization. The following factors were evaluated to predict the possible causes for tracheotomy: segment of injury, ages, smoking history, past diseases (such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension and coronary heart disease) and complicated chest or lung injuries. Results The highest rate of tracheotomy for cervical spinal injury at Grade A was 35.0% (85/243), while the rate of tracheotomy for incomplete injury at Grades B, C and D was only 2.6% (21/814). Of cervical spinal injury at Grade A, all C_3 segment injuries needed tracheotomy. Of all, the percentage for C_4 and C_5 segment injuries accounted for 43.2% (105/243),of which the percentage for tracheotomy was 74% (63/85). The possibility of tracheotomy decreased gradually from below C_5. Besides C_3 segment injuries, C_4 segment injuries had the highest possibility of tracheotomy, with statistical difference compared with other segments (P

Objective To understand the influencing factors of the post competency of health technical personnel in township hospitals in a prov-ince,so as to provide scientific reference for improving health professionals'post competency. Methods Using stratified cluster random sam-pling,1242 health professionals from township health centers and village clinics of 14 cities were extracted and then surveyed with questionnaire. Results The average score of the respondents'post competency was 3.43,which meant they could afford most of the work. Multiple linear re-gression analysis showed that the main influencing factors of the professionals'post competency included gender,age,specialty,and training. The female,senior,nursing and health-care professionals with training exhibited a better post competency. Conclusion To realize the further develop-ment of professionals'post competency,medical students should not only be early clinical and more clinical,but also actively participate in the training and continue the education after entering the clinic. On the other hand ,the government should define the function orientation of the town-ship healthy centers and explore human resource management mode based on the post competency.

Objective To investigate the genetic stability, immunogenicity and protective efficacy of AdC68-rab. gp, a novel rabies vaccine based on the replication-defective chimpanzee adenoviral vector AdC68-ept. Methods The recombinant adenovirus AdC68-rab. gp expressing the glycoprotein of rabies vi-rus ERA strain was constructed. Genomes of the AdC68-rab. gp of different generations were extracted and analyzed. HEK293 and Huh7 cells were infected with the AdC68-rab. gp of different generations. ICR mice were immunized with the AdC68-rab. gp and blood samples were collected 4 weeks or 6 months after immuni-zation. Rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test ( RFFIT) was performed to detect the neutralizing antibody against rabies virus in mice serum samples. ICR mice were challenged with lethal dose of rabies virus 4 weeks after the immunization with AdC68-rab. gp to evaluate the protective efficacy of AdC68-rab. gp. Re-sults The genome of AdC68-rab. gp was stable after 15 passages, which was identical to that of the 5th and 1st generations. High levels of neutralizing antibody against rabies virus in serum samples were detected in mice immunized with AdC68-rab. gp and maintained for a long period of time. Immunization mice with one dose of AdC68-rab. gp could protect all mice from the lethal dose challenge of rabies virus. Conclusion The novel AdC68-rab. gp was characterized by good genetic stability and ideal protective effi-cacy. The adenoviral vector based vaccine could be further developed as a potential candidate for the substi-tute of current rabies vaccine.
