ObjectiveTo identify the relevant factors of expansion of contusive cerebral hemorrhage following unilateral decompressive craniectomy in patients with severe craniocerebral injury and discuss their relation with prognosis.MethodsA total of 161 consecutive patients with craniocerebral injury undergoing unilateral decompressive craniectomy were prospectively studied.Their initial cranial CT data (data after injury,data before operation,and data after first operation) were recorded.Mortality or Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at 6 months after injury was used as the criteria for evaluation of prognosis.ResultsThe volume of increased contusive cerebral hemorrhage among the patients after craniectomy was (18.66 ± 22.69) ml.The Rotterdam score of their initial cranial CT after injury was significantly associated with the occurrence or not of expanded contusive cerebral hemorrhage following decompressive craniectomy and the expanded hematoma volume.The expanded volume of contusive cerebral hemorrhage ( ＞ 20 ml) after craniectomy showed significant relevance to mortality and poor prognosis six months later.The magnitude of external cerebral herniation ( ECH ) on the initial post-operative CT was associated with the prognosis. ConclusionsThe severity of patients with craniocerebral injury manifested by the initial cranial CT may predict the risk of expansion of contusive cerebral hemorrhage following decompressive craniectomy.The expansion volume of contusive cerebral hemorrhage and ECH are correlated with mortality and poor prognosis.

The changes of immunoreactive TRH (TRH-ir) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma before and after acute traumatic head injury were determined with radioimmunoassay (RIA) on a feline model of acute experimental head trauma. The results showed that the concentrations of TRH-ir in experimental animals pre- and 2, 4, and 6h post-injury were 119.48?51.77, 460.71 ?178.72, 377.27? 139.33, and 280.17?110.46pmol/L in CSF, and 122.58?28.87,1158.89?163.18, 909.69?160.55, and 545.38?132.80pmol/L in plasma, respectively, while those in control animals measured at the corresponding time were 112.22?53.42, 105.36?49.64, 100.63?52.89, and 104.52?52.42pmol/L in CSF, and 113.57 ?25.79, 107.32?26.60, 119.84?31.53, and 117.21?28.95pmol/L in plasma, respectively. The contents of TRH-ir in CSF and plasma in the experimental group after traumatic head injury were significantly higher than those, in the control group (P

The fetal spleen cells were transplanted following the injection of S180 carcinosarcoma into the muscle,abdominal cavity,peripheral veins and portal vein in mice.The size inhibitory rate of the transplanted tumor and natural killer activity were evaluated 30 and 60 days after the injection.It was found that the growth of transplanted tumor was dramatically inhibited and natural killer activity was increased 30 days after the transplantation.But 60 days after the transplantation only portal venous transplanted tumor showed a satisfactory function of inhibiting tumor growth and natural killer activity maintained at a high level.These results indicated that portal vein was the best approach for the spleen cell transplantation

To improve the AIDS's knowledge level and intervention ability of peer lecturers in college, from the accumulation idea and activity type of experience value on Moso Teach, the author carried out systematic resource construction around the course design principles and objectives, at the same time one quantitative scoring system including learning degree and sharing degree was constructed. Through voluntary enrollment and selection among the students, the first group of peer lecturer training on AIDS prevention were set up, and 28 students were collected to experience the "mixed" application of the course. After the evaluation, it was found that there were positive functions in promoting the ability of AIDS prevention in the peer lecturer training course based on experience value of Moso Teach as the driving force and quantification. According to the problems exposed in the construction, the author put forward improvement strategies from the aspects of scoring system, off-line activities and resource optimization.

Objective To evaluate the effciency of different embolic agents inducing the changes of the liver morphology and function in the selective portal vein embolization (PVE).Methods Forty five Spraque-Dawley rats were used in this experiment.Five were served as a control group and forty were randomly divided into 4 groups of 10 rats each.Right PVE was performed in each group by one of four different embolic agents respectively.Five rats from each group were sacrificed and dissected to inspect the morphological changes on 14th and 21st day after the procedure.The results of different groups were analyzed according to the weight ratios of the right lobe to the whole liver and the whole liver to the body,and the results were compared to each other and those of the control group using statistical Student“ t ”test. Results After the procedure,the embolized lobe was turned gray immediately with no significant differences between groups.Both on the 14th and 21st day after the procedure,the right lobe of the liver from the rats of group 1,2,3 were atrophied apparently with lots of spotty yellow scars in different sizes.There was no significant change of the embolized right lobe from group 4.By statistical analysis,the embolization using Lipiodol-ethanol 2∶1 mixture in group 2 resulted in better atrophy than group 1 ( P 0.05) and more than the gelfoam pieces ( P

BACKGROUND:Studies suggested that blood loss was great during total knee arthroplasty, even blood transfusion was needed. Application of the tourniquet wil destroy the coagulation system, and is not conducive to hemostasis after replacement. Recently, tranexamic acid has been extensively used to reduce blood loss during total knee arthroplasty, because of low price, simple administration pathway, and effective effects on hemostasis. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the application and safety of tranexamic acid in total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:The first author retrieved PubMed and Chinese Journal Ful Text Database for articles from inception to October 2015. The key words were tranexamic acid, total knee arthroplasty, hemorrhage. More than 200 articles were retrieved, and finaly 50 articles met the inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Tranexamic acid is a fibrinolytic inhibitor, can reversibly block the binding of plasminogen to fibrin, effectively inhibit fibrinolysis, and reduce hemorrhage after total knee arthroplasty. Nevertheless, there were significant differences in the use, dose and effect of tranexamic acid on hemostasis among different studies. Tranexamic acid was an effective drug for hemostasis during total knee arthroplasty. During total knee arthroplasty, tranexamic acid had been used to reduce dominant blood loss and hidden blood loss after arthroplasty, and could not increase the risk for venous thrombosis of lower limb. Currently, the timing of use, dosage, route of administration, and possible complications of tranexamic acid remain controversial.

Objective To identify the factors enhancing the contusive brain hemorrhage following unilateral decompression craniectomy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI),and to explore the relationship between the initial Rotterdam CT score and clinical outcomes.Methods A prospective study of 291 consecutive patients with TBI admitted from Jan 2008 through Dec 2012 was carried out.Patients treated with unilateral decompression craniectomy were enrolled for study.Patients without preoperative or postoperative cranial CT imaging were excluded.Of them,235 patients were followed up.Gender,age,the causes of injury,preoperative general condition including Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score,pupillary response,laboratory data and the initial CT scans before operation,contusion hematoma size in CT scans following operation and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score were recorded.With t test,x2 test and nonparametric rank sum test,differences in the above listed variables were compared between patients with enlarged hematoma size group and those without change in hematoma size.A Classification And Regression Tree (CART) was used to predict the size of hematoma.Correlation analysis was used to find the relationship between the Rotterdam CT scores and GOS scores.Results The differences in age (t =2.034,P =0.043),first Rotterdam CT score (Z =4.838,P ＜ 0.01),GCS score (Z =4.440,P ＜ 0.01),pupillary response (Z =3.235,P =0.001),the length of time elapsed between the trauma occurred and the decompressive craniectomy (Z =3.874,P ＜ 0.01),glucose level (Z =3.880,P ＜ 0.01) and cerebrum hernia magnitude (Z =2.529,P =0.012) were significant between the patients with hematoma expanded (n =120) and those without change in hematoma size (n =115).The results of the CART indicated that Rotterdam score got from the initial head CT,glucose level and the length of time elapsed between trauma occurred and decompressive craniectomy were strong predictors of the risk for expanded hemorrhagic contusions following decompressive craniectomy.Both age and size of the removed bone-flap also could predict the risk of postoperative expansion of hemorrhagic contusions.The overall predictive accuracy of the CART model was 83.3％.Correlation analysis results indicated that Rotterdam CT score was negatively correlated with GOS (r =-0.333,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Initial Rotterdam CT scores,glucose level and the length of time between trauma and decompressive craniectomy may predict the risk of contusions expansion following decompressive craniectomy.Rotterdam CT score was negatively correlated with GOS.

To promote the combination of basic medical education and clinic medical edu-cation,we carried out the exploration on stomatological human anatomy course linked up with imi-tative oral clinic teaching.The evaluation to the effect of the teaching methods showed that it could induce the stomatological students to apply the theory to the clinic practice,consolidate their mas-tery and understanding of stomatological human anatomy and train their ability to acquire knowledge actively.

Objective:To investigate the priorities of each factor influencing the casualties in refugees living in border areas, so as to provide evidence for casualty forecasting in the refugees. Methods: We summarized the factors affecting the refugee casualty in the border area through searching and reviewing the related literatures. The identified factors were classified into 3 levels and the quantitative index system was established by using Delphi method, i.e. expert consulting method. The names and the meanings of each index were revised according to experts’ suggestions after 3 rounds of consulting. The weights of each index were determined by analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and comparing-reordering method. Results: A 3-level quantitative system was successfully constructed, which consisted of 4 first level indices (including natural factors, social factors, medical factors, and war factors), 12 second level indices, and 37 third level indices; the weights of all indices were determined. Conclusion: The result of our study can be used in predicting refugee casualty and provide a reference for the medical service of refugees living in the border areas.
