Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance tomographic angiography(MRTA) with 3.0T scanner for neurovascular compression in patients with trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm.Methods MRTA using three-dimensional time-of-flight(TOF) sequence was performed in 52 cases with trigeminal neuralgia and 9 cases with hemifacial spasm.MR oblique sagittal and coronal images were created to display the relationship between trigeminal and facial nerves and surrounding vessels,and compared with that of operation MRA showed that.Results In 52 cases with trigeminal neuralgia,the trigeminal nerves were compressed by vessels or contacted with vessels in 46 cases at MRTA,and in 9 cases with hemifacial spasm,all trigeminal nerves showed having vascular compression or in contact with vessels.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of MRA in diagnosing trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm caused by vascular compression were 90.2%,96.4% and 80%,respectively,which compared with that of operation.Conclusion MRTA is sensitive to neurovascular compression,which plays an important role in diagnosing trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm.

Objective To investigate the age distribution and types of human papillomavirus (HPV) cervical infection in patients in Wuhan region, so as to provide scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of HPV infection and cervical cancer.Methods 9 915 exfoliated cervical cell specimens from patients in Wuhan Medical and Health Center for Women and Children between January 2015 and March 2016 were performed HPV genotyping (21 subtypes), clinical data of 1 732 HPV positive cases were statistically analyzed.Results HPV-positive rates in ≤25, 26~, 36~, 46~, and ≥56 age groups were 22.15%, 15.90%, 17.04%, 19.97%, and 17.57%,respectively (χ2=36.587,P<0.01),HPV-positive rates in ≤25 and 46~ age groups were both higher than other age groups.There were significant differences in single infection and multiple infection rates among different age groups respectively(χ2=14.39, 36.51,respectively, both P<0.05),single infection rate was highest in 46~ and ≤25 age groups (15.41% and 15.24% respectively);multiple infection rates was highest in ≤25 and ≥56 age groups (6.90% and 5.86% respectively).The percentage of single infection and multiple infection were 75.58% and 24.42% respectively, the major single infection type was HPV high-risk subtype (84.34%),the major multiple infection types were high-risk and high-risk compound subtype as well as high-risk and low-risk compound subtype, accounting for 60.52% and 38.77% respectively.The main single infection types were HPV high-risk subtypes 33, 68, 31 and 16, as well as and low-risk subtype 11, the ratios of single infection to multiple infection were 3.13, 2.03, 1.71, 1.67 and 2.00 respectively.Conclusion Cervical infection rates in women in Wuhan region is high in ≤25 and 46~ age groups, there are differences in the distribution of different HPV subtypes of single infection and multiple infection.

Objective To investigate the status of clinical nutrition management in patients in PICU,and to provide data for promoting the improvement and development of clinical nutrition of pediatric critically ill patients.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted on PICU specialists.The nutrition assessment,nutrition intervention and nutrition management of critically ill children in PICU were investigated.The results were summarized and analyzed.Results A total of 39 PICU specialists were involved in this survey.The nutritional assessment methods and guidelines in domestic PICU were not unified.Twenty-five respondents (64.1%) believed that both clinical performance and the scales as the basis can decide whether the patients should be fed or not;all respondents believed that nutritional assessment and intervention time need to be determined by the needs of the patients;23 respondents(58.9%) used weight only as their nutritional monitoring indicators.Twenty-eight respondents(71.8%) considered that gastric tube was the first choice way to feeding for the critically ill children;20 respondents(51.3%) believed that critically ill children should be fed within 24 hours.Twelve respondents (33.3%) believed that critically ill children should be fed between 24 to 48 hours.Thirty-three respondents(84.6%) advocated early enteral nutrition;36 respondents (92.3%) considered that the main reasons of fasting in critically ill children were vomiting or abdominal distension or gastrointestinal bleeding.Twenty-eight respondents(71.8%) believed that according to the results of gastrointestinal function evaluation,they made decisions whether the patient to fast or not.Twenty-three respondents(59.0%) considered that specialists in PICU were the decision maker of the clinical nutrition in critically ill children.Twenty-four (61.5%) of the respondents believed that we needed to establish our own routines in management of nutrition in PICU.Conclusion At present in China,a lot of achievements have been made in the nutritional assessment,monitoring,early enteral nutrition intervention and management in critically ill children,but it is not enough.We need to make more effort to enhance the critically nutrition level in PICU,and we have a lot of research to do about nutrition assessment and nutrition intervention mode.It is recommended to establish Chinese guidelines or consensus to enhance the level of nutritional treatment of critically ill children.

Aim Through identification of the difunc-tionality of neuroprotection and passage of blood-brain barrier ( BBB) for RDP-BDNF fusion protein to offer a new strategy to treat brain diseases. Methods BDNF was conjugated to a novel cell penetrating peptide known as RDP which was derived from rabies virus gly-coprotein ( RVG) . The fusion protein RDP-BDNF was expressed in E. coli BL21 ( DE3 ) . After the intrave-nous injection of RDP-BDNF, the time effect curve of RDP-BDNF in the brains and serum was examined. Additionally , Morris water maze test was used to evalu-ate the effect of RDP-BDNF on scopolamine-induced amnesic mice, and the mechanism was also studied. Results RDP-BDNF could cross the BBB and exhibi-ted neuroprotective effects on the treatment of cognitive deficit induced by scopolamine in dementia model mice. Conclusions Delivery of protein therapeutics using RDP might offer a new and exciting strategy to treat brain diseases.
