[Objective]To assess the accuracy and value of radiographic technique using computed tomography(CT) measurements in cadaveric specimens during anterior cervical corpectomy in order to define the safe lateral limit of dissection.[Method]The gutter of C4~6 corpectomy on 5 cadaveric samples was filled with radioopaque dye.An antero-posterior X-ray was used to measure the narrowest distance from dye column to the line of uncovertebral joints.A CT scan confirmed the distance from the borderline of the gutter to vertebral arteries.[Result]The distance between the X-ray dye column and the line of uncovertebral joints averaged 4.7 mm in the left and 4.2 mm in the right.While the distance from the borderline of the gutter to vertebral arteries with CT scan averaged 6.1 mm in the left and 5.9 mm in the right.The measured distance by radiographic technique underestimated the true distance.[Conclusion]Intraoperative radiographic technique can estimate the lateral distance between the gutter of corpectomy and vertebral arteries by measuring the distance from the dye column to the line of uncovertebral joints.This technique provides surgeons an additional margin of safety during anterior cervical corpectomy.

Objective To analyse correlated risk factors of evolving cerebral infarction(ECI).Methods The follow data was recorded in the acute cerebral infarction (ACI)cases when they were admitted :sex,age,systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),history of disease (diabetes mellitus,hypertension,hyperlipidaemia,cerebral infarction,hyperuricemia or smoking).The following examinations or determinations were done,including:white blood cell count (WBC),platelet count (PLT),blood gluconate(GLU),PT-INR,fibrinogen(FG),TT-INR,APTT-INR,C-reactive protein(CRP),D-dimer(D-D),products of fibrin degradation(FDP),anti-thrombin Ⅲ(ATⅢ),apolipoprotein A(apoA),apolipoprotein B(apoB),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),creatinine(CR),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein (HDL),low density lipoprotein (LDL),very low density lipoprotein (VLDL),GOT,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),creatine phosphokinase (CPK),MB isoforms of creatine phosphokinase (CPK-MB),? hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (?-HBDH),troponin I(TnI),cerebral CT or MRI and carotid ultrasonography.The patients were divided into two groups,ECI and completed cerebral infarction (CCI),according whether neurons function scale deteriorated.When cases of both groups exceeded 50,we took statistic test by SPSS10.0 statistic software.Results 8 of the above 46 markers had significant defference between the two groups,including CRP,WBC,apoB,GLU,LDH,CPK-MB,?-HBDH and DBP.ECI was more common in patients who had lower DBP or higher CRP,WBC,apoB,GLU,LDH,CPK-MB,?-HBDH when they were admitted.Conclusion The increase of CRP,WBC,apoB,GLU,LDH,CPK-MB,?-HBDH or decrease of DBP when patients are admitted can be predictive markers of ECI.

Objective To examine the current situation of smoke-free policies and the support for comprehensive smoke free policies in Beijing, Shenyang, Shanghai, Changsha, Guangzhou, and Yinchuan. Methods Data from Wave 1 of the ITC China Survey (April 2006-August 2008) were analyzed. The ITC China Survey employed a multistage sampling design across 6 cities: Beijing, Shenyang, Shanghai, Changsha, Guangzhou, and Yinchuan. Face to face interviews were conducted with a total of 4 815 smokers and 1 270 non-smokers across the 6 cities to examine their support for smoke free policies. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify factors associated with support for comprehensive smoke free policies. Results None of the six cities had implemented comprehensive smoke free policies. Support for comprehensive smoke free policies in workplaces, restaurants and bars was relatively lower compared to hospitals, schools, and public transport vehicles. Support for comprehensive smoke free policies in workplaces, restaurants and bars were associated with knowledge about the adverse health effects of secondhand smoke (for workplaces OR=1.27, 95%CI: 1.08~1.49; for restaurants and bars OR=1.55, 95%CI: 1.17~2.05). Conclusion More comprehensive smoke free policies are needed in the 6 cities. To improve support for comprehensive smoke free policies, public knowledge about the adverse health effects of secondhand smoke needs to be strengthened.

Objective To comprehensively understand the first aid skills for spinal cord injury of army members and improve their first aid skills through interventions.Methods A total of 2 200 troops members were selected within the army (Navy,Army and Air Forces).Intervention methods included questionnaire assessment,multimedia teaching and demonstration of first aid for spinal injuries.The total intervention time was 1 year,with once every four months.Results There distributed 2 200 copies of questionnaire before intervention and received 2 118 valid copies,with the total reclaim rate of 96.27%.A total of 2 118 copies of questionnaires were distributed after intervention and received 2 074 valid copies,with the total reclaim rate of 97.92%.Theoretical examination and skill test results of the army members were significantly improved after the intervention (all P <0.01).The general individual factors showed no effect on first aid of spinal cord injury before and after intervention.Before the intervention,the navy members had higher score than the land forces members and the air force members; however,no significant difference was found on the scores of different forces after the intervention.Conclusions The first aid skills for spinal cord injury of the army members has a big gap from the actual requirements.Improvement of first aid skills for spinal cord injury of the officers and soldiers can save the lives of themselves or comrades and hence is important in minimizing the combat attrition in future potential local high-tech wars.

Super-selective transcatheter prostatic arterial embolization is a newly-developed minimally invasive treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia with good maneuverability, safety and fewer complications. The short-term and mid-term follow-up has proved that it has higher clinical efficacy in improving the quality of life by alleviating lower urinary tract symptoms. It emerges as an innovative technology in urology and interventional radiology. In order to ensure a successful procedure with satisfactory clinical outcome the most important considerations when performing prostatic arterial embolization are to precisely identify the prostatic artery, to correctly differentiate the anastomoses with surrounding arteries, and to properly select embolic agents. This paper aims to make a comprehensive review on the progress and current situation of prostatic arterial embolization with a focus on the clinical issues and technical challenges.

Background and purpose:Lung cancer is currently the greatest threat to human life and health of the malignant tumor, clinical examination revealed a solitary pulmonary nodules (SPN), including a signiifcant portion of early stage lung cancer. The research aimed to discuss the diagnosis value of CT guidance Hookwire positioning thoracoscopic surgery for solitary pulmonary nodule. Methods:From Jul. 2011 to Jun. 2013, 310 SPN patients in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center were collected. Hookwire positioning pins were retained guided by CT scan into the patients’ body. Video assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) pulmonary wedge resection was adopted. According to the result of intraoperative frozen pathology, further treatment method was decided. Positioning accuracy, complications, VATS lung wedge resection surgery successful rate, transfer rate in the chest and SPN pathological classiifcation and other indicators were calculated with statistical methods. Results:Hookwire positioning successful rate was 100%, meanwhile, 2 patients with hemoptysis received symptomatic treatment.Intraoperative Hookwire fell off in 12 patients (3.87%), VATS wedge resection surgery successful rate was 99%, transit thoracotomy was carried out in 3 patients. SPN postoperative histological pathology results:237 cases with primary lung cancer, 73 cases with benign lesions. Conclusion:The method of CT guided Hookwire thoracoscopic surgery after positioning in treatment of SPN has higher diagnostic accuracy rate, reliable curative effect, fewer complications and great value in clinical promotion.
