Objective To know the quality change trend of outgoing water from the water plants in the rural areas in Dongguan, Shunde and Zhongshan of Guangdong. Methods The quality reports of the outgoing water and the supply capacity of the water plants in 1999-2003 were analyzed. Results The up to standard rate of outgoing water showed an increase in the three areas in 1999-2003, from 98.00% to 98.55%, 95.13% to 99.43% and 97.95 to 99.63% respectively, but the bacteriological indexes were still noteworthy. Conclusion The outgoing quality of water plants in Dongguan,Shunde and Zhongshan of Guangdong is satisfactory, the up to standard rate of outgoing water from the larger scale plants is higher compared with the smaller ones.

Objective To compare the risk factors of mild hemorrhage and diiferences of TOAST type in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and transient ischemia attack (TIA).Methods Forty patients with mild hemorrhage were divided into ACI group(24 cases) and TIA group(16 cases) according to disease classification.Risk factors such as age,blood pressure,blood lipid and so on between 2 groups were compared,TOAST subtype differences of 2 groups were compared.Results The age [(73.3 ± 4.1) years],the ratio of hypertension [95.8%(23/24)],leukoaraiosis [70.8%(17/24)] in ACI group was significantly higher than that in TIA group [(65.5 ± 5.6) years,13/16,9/16],there was significant difference (P < 0.05).The ratio of large-artery atherosclerosis and cardioembolism in ACI group [75.0% (18/24) and 16.7% (4/24)] was significantly higher than that in TIA group (8/16 and 1/16),there was significant difference (P < 0.05).But the ratio of small artery occlusion in ACI group [8.3% (2/24)] was significantly lower than that in TIA group (7/16),there was significant difference (P < 0.05).Conclusion Correlative risk factors of milde hemorrhage in ACI and TIA patients have significant differences.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical features of hyperuricemia (HUA) and relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) and metabolic syndrome (MS) in adults.MethodsData were gathered from medical examination among adults age ≥ 20 years,and totally 18 862 subjects were analyzed in this study.ResultsThe prevalence of HUA was 14.8% (2788/18 862).The rate was 18.4%( 1926/10 445) in men,10.2% (862/8417) in women.The prevalence of HUA was increased with age,there was significant difference among different age (P =0.000),the rate in men was higher than that in women (P < 0.01 or <0.05 ).Compared with normal SUA Patients,the levels of body mass index(BMI),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),total cholesterol (TC),triacylglycerol (TG) and lowdensity lipid cholesterol(LDL-C) were markedly elevated (P <0.01 or <0.05),and the level of highdensity lipid cholesterol (HDL-C) was markedly decreased in HUA patients (P <0.05).Stepwise regression analysis showed that BMI,SBP,DBP,fasting plasma glucose (FPG),TG,HDL-C were the independent correlation factor of SUA.The incidence of hypertension,over weight/obesity,dyslipidosis,hyperglycosemia and MS in HUA patients [24.1% (672/2788),36.2% (1009/2788),31.2% (870/2788),18.0% (502/2788),20.8%(580/2788) ] was significantly higher than that in normal SUA patients [ 18.2% (2925/16 074),26.4%(4244/16 074),22.0%(3536/16 074),15.00(2411/16 074),17.0%(2733/16 074),P< 0.01 ].The level of SUA in patients with MS [ (342.3 ± 64.2 ) μ mol/L ] was higher than that of those without MS[ (319.3 ± 67.1 )μ mol/L,P =0.000].ConclusionsThe prevalence of HUA is increased with age.Multiple factors of dysbolism are clustered in subjects with HUA.There is correlation between SUA and MS.

OBJECTIVE: Researches on total hip replacements are always the hot spots in recent years. The replacements have obtained satisfactory outcomes in clinic. However, the long-term effect is limited because of the material and technical problems. This paper is to summarize the developmental trend and the prospect of clinical application for total hip replacements in 10 years.DATA SOURCES: A computer-based online search of Medline database was undertaken to identify relevant articles published in English from January 1996 to January 2006 by using the keywords of "total hip replacements, surgical robot, tissue engineering, virtual endoscopy". Meanwhile,Chinese relevant articles published from January 1990 to December 2005 were searched in Wanfang database, the keywords were "total hip replacements, material, virtual endoscopy, surgical robot, tissue engineering" in Chinese.STUDY SELECTION: The articles were primarily checked, and the references in each literature were reviewed. Articles about the study on total hip replacements were involved; Meanwhile, the repetitive studies or Meta analysis were excluded.DATA EXTRACTION: Totally 39 relevant articles were collected, and 22 of them accorded with the. Inclusive criteria, 17 old or repetitive ones were excluded. Of the 22 articles, 5 were about the influence of artificial joint material on prosthetic loosening and its carcinogenesis; 2 about the microinvasion of joint replacement induced by computer-aided surgery navigation; 1 about the introduction of surgical robot; 3 about the development of custom-made and specially made artificial joint; 9 about the possibility for the surface replacement of hip; and 2 about the combination of tissue engineering technique and artificial joint.DATA SYNTHESIS: Modern researches on total hip replacements are exploring wearing tolerant prosthesis to reduce the prosthetic loosening caused by osteolysis and bone resorption. The computer-aided design/made technique is used for special design and manufacture according to the need of disease, so as to solve the fracture around prosthesis and meet the need of limb salvage surgery. The computer-aided surgery navigation realizes the microinvasion of joint replacement and the fast recovery after surgery. The successful rate of total hip replacements is improved by developing localized surgical robot in China. By using the virtual endoscopy, we can accurately know the damaged conditions of intraarticular cartilage and sub-cartilage bone, which are also able to be quantifized, so that more suitable and reliable prosthesis can be selected to increase the accuracy. The tissue engineering technique in repairing defect can increase the synostosis of prosthesis, and perfect the technique of joint replacement.CONCLUSION: In the coming 10 years, total hip replacements will develop towards stability, harmlessness, microinvasion, mechanization, individualization and diversification, so that the total hip replacements will be much stander and safer with higher successful rate.

[Objective] To explore the effects of mycocide and insecticide on indoor air quality in archives.[Methocls] The levels of camphor, formaldehyde and 2, 2-dichlorovinyldimethyl phosphate (DDVP) in indoor airwere determined in 17 archives. [Results] The average concentration of camphor in indoor air was 1.00mg/L inarchives applying synthetic camphor, 0.74 mg/m3 in archives applying commercialized mycocide (the main compo-nents were synthetic camphor and pyrethrin ), and 0.14 mg/m3, applying natural camphor. The concentrations offormaldehyde reached 0.297 mg/m3 at the 10th day after the co-fumigation by formaldehyde and DDVP. At thesametime, DDVP was not found in indoor air of archives.[Conclusion]The pollution of formaldehyde and camphorin indoor air of archives should be paid more attention to.

Objective To investigate the dose-respeuse relationship of levobupivacaine for spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing cesarean section.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 25-35 yr weighing 60-90 kg scheduled for elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were enrolled in this study.Spinal puncture was performed at the L3,4 interspace.A 25 G spinal needle was inserted into the subarachnoid space cephalad.The patients were randomized to receive levobupivacaine 7.5 mg (group L1 ),10 mg (group L2),12.5 mg (group L3) or 15 mg (group L4) diluted to 3 ml with 5% glucose over 30 s (n = 15 each).The degree of pain was evaluated at the time of skin incision using visual analogue scales (VAS) (0 = no pain and 10 = worse pain ever).Effective analgesia was defined as VAS = 0.Spinal analgesia was inadequate when VAS≥1 and then 1% lidocaine 5-10 ml was given epidurally.The doses of levobupivacaine for effective analgesia in 50% and 95% of patients ( ED50 and ED95 ) and 95 % confidence interval were calculated by Probit method.Results The ED50 of levobupivacaine was 9.0 mg (95% confidence interval 7.8-9.9 mg) and ED95 13.2 mg (95% confidence interval 11.6-17.6 mg) for spinal anesthesia.Conclusion The ED50 and ED95 of levobupivacaine for spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing cesarean section are 9.0 mg and 13.2 mg respectively.
