BACKGROUND: Neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopahty(NHIE) is a common neonatal disease, which could cause cerebral palsy, inferior intelligence and convulsion. At present, usual examinations for this disease are CT.MRI and single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT), etc.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the character of SPECT image of NHIE, and compared with CT and MRI as well to provide a theoretical gist for function surveillance and early intervention of NHIE.DESIGN: An observatory comparative study based on NHIE patients and normal neouates as control.SETTING: Department of nuclear medicine in a medical university hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty neonates hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College between September 1998 and October 2000 were selected as observation group with 23 males and 7 females. Another 10 normal neonates including 7 males and 3 females were randomly selected from same period into control group.METHODS: SPECT brain blood perfusion was conducted in the subjects of two groups and the results were compared with that of CT and MRI.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① comparison of SPECT brain blood image features between NHIE and normal neonates; ② comparison of SPECT images and CT, MRI results. RESULTS: In 22 NHIE cases who received SPECT, CT and MRI simultaneously, mild group had 7 cases, and positive cases of SPECT, CT or MRI was 7, 3 or 5; moderate group had 10 cases, and positive cases of three methods was 10, 8 or 9; severe group had 5 cases, the all of them were positive in all three examinations. The total positive detectable rate of SPECT, CT or MRI was 100, 72.73% or 86. 36%. There was no significant difference of sensitivity between SPECT and MRI in mild group, while there was significant difference between SPECT and CT(x2 = 3.95, P < 0.05);there was no significant difference among three methods in either moderate group or severe group(x2 =0. 83, P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: SPECT brain blood perfusion image is a quite sensitive method for the surveillance of NHIE, which can provide imageological reference for the evaluation of its prognosis and early intervention.

Objective:To study the correlation of C(-938)A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promoter of anti-apoptosis gene Bcl-2 with the clinical biological parameters of breast cancer patients in Hebei Province. Methods:Three genotypes(AA, AC, CC) of Bcl-2 C(-938)A from 113 samples of breast cancer patients were analyzed by using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method, and the results were associated with clinical biological parameters. The distribution of genotype frequency was compared between different groups. Results:When stratified for axillary lymph node metastases, the frequency of AA genotype were 26.8%, 47.8% and 52.6% and the distribution of AC+CC genotypes were 73.2%, 52.2% and 47.4% in negative group, 1-3 metastasis group, and ≥4 metastasis group. The difference between the two groups was significant (χ~2=6.337, P=0.042). Compared with the AC+CC genotypes, the OR value of AA genotype in ≥4 metastasis group was 3.041 (95%CI=1.072-8.626). The frequency of AA genotype were 30.9% and 69.1% in gradeⅠ-Ⅱ group and grade Ⅲ group, and the frequency of AC+CC genotypes were 57.9% and 42.1%. The difference between the two groups was significant (χ~2=5.055; P=0.025). Compared with the AC+CC genotypes, the OR value of AA genotype in differentiated tumors(grade Ⅲ)was 3.082 (95%CI=1.122-8.465). Stratified for estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and C-erbB2, there was no difference between the distribution of AA genotype and AC+CC genotypes (χ~2=3.005, χ~2=1.504, χ~2=1.163, P>0.05). Conclusion:The AA genotype of Bcl-2 gene C(-938)A maybe correlated with high lymph node metastasis rate and poor differentiation.

A total of 11 200 subjects from urban and rural areas of Taocheng of Hebei Province were surveyed for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) knowledge with self-made questionnaire. Our results showed that of the 11200 participants, there were 3708 subjects (33.11%) knew CPR; 6105 subjects (54.51%) knew but couldnt put it into practice; and 1387 subjects (12.38%) didn't know CPR. There was a significant difference in CPR awareness rate among people with different education level and profession (P <0.01). Awareness of emergency treatment and therapeutic technique was proved to be low among urban and rural residents, especially those living at poor-educated small towns. We suggest that more attention should be paid to increased awareness of CPR and its technique to improve to outcome of the treatment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of perforator-based neurocutaneous flaps in repairing soft tissue defects of lower extremity in plateau area.Methods:Forty-eight patients who received perforator-based neurocutaneous local flaps to repair soft tissue defects of lower extremity from August, 2017 to December, 2019 were entered a follow-up study. The patients were 17 to 65 years old, 29 males and 19 females. There were 23 flaps with sural neurocutaneous perforator, 15 with saphenous neurocutaneous perforators, and 10 with superficial peroneal neurocutaneous perforators. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 4.0 cm×3.5 cm to 15.0 cm×12.0 cm. And the size of the flaps ranged from 6.0 cm×4.5 cm to 16.0 cm×13.0 cm. The donor sites of 17 cases were directly sutured, and the rest of 31 were repaired by skin graft. The regular follow-up was performed.Results:Of the 48 cases, 33 neurocutaneous flaps survived completely, 9 had necrosis around edge of the skin after surgery and healed after hyperbaric oxygen therapy and dressing change, and 6 had complete necrosis after surgery and healed after vacuum assisted drainage and skin grafting. In 6 to 12(average, 9.6) months of follow-up after surgery, the shape and texture of flaps were in good condition with the patient satisfaction rate on functional evaluation(joint motions, standing, walking) at 75.45%.Conclusion:Perforator-based neurocutaneous flap is an excellent choice for the repair of soft tissue defects of lower extremity in plateau area because of its reliable blood supply and minimal damage to donor site.
