BACKGROUND:Core decompression and autogenous bone grafts are widely used in treatment of early avascular necrosis of femoral head. According to the report, the success rate of this therapy has obvious difference;the reasons may be related to inaccurate puncture location and secondary damnification of repeated puncture. OBJECTIVE:To reconstruct three-dimensional model of femoral head necrosis by Mimics software for reappearance of lesions in the necrotic area to realize measurement of necrotic area of the femoral head and estimation of its volume. METHODS:We restructured images by using multi-slice spiral CT Syngommvvp VE23A workstation, Inspace software and NeuroDSA software. Hip CT data in DICOM format were imported into Mimics 13.0 software systems. Necrotic area of the femoral head was reconstructed with Mimics SimuIation software to truly reproduce the integrated form, scope and stereochemical structure of the necrotic area so as to achieve the measurement of the necrotic area of the femoral head and the volume estimation. We designed the best core decompression channel, simulated core decompression surgery, so that the patients could refer to the best simulated decompression path in the operation of core decompression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Among 36 patients (48 hips) with avascular necrosis of femoral head, there were phase I in 8 hips, accounting for 17%, phase II in 28 hips, accounting for 58%, and phase III in 12 hips, accounting for 25%. (2) The volume of necrotic area was (1 475.48±647.342) mm3 in the phase I, (4 571.77±2 344.55) mm3 in the phase II, and (4 836.46±2 969.33) mm3 in the phase III. (3) We simulated the core decompression based on the radius of the sphere of the necrotic area as parameter in the Mimics Simulation software module, and then completely cleared the necrotic area. (4) Surgery can more clearly understand information and stereochemical structure of the necrotic area with Mimics software to simulate the core decompression. It is the theoretical basis of operation.

This study was aimed to observe effects ofDendrobium ofifcinaleKimura et Migo on cardiac function and changes of blood vessel in rabbits with coronary heart disease (CHD).Thirty clean grade healthy rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups, which were the control group, model group,Dendrobium low-dose (DLD), middle-dose (DMD), and high-dose (DHD) group, with 6 rabbits in each group. Constrictor ring was implanted in the left coronary artery to establish CHD model in the model group, DLD, DMD and DHD groups. Intragastric administration of Dendrobium decoction at the dose of 10, 20, and 40 g·kg-1 was given to rabbits in the DLD, DMD and DHD groups once a day for 21 consecutive days, respectively. The same volume of normal saline was given to the control group and the model group. Detections were made on levels of IL-8, TNF-α, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, the expression of actin, changes of LVSP, LVEDP,±dp/dtmax, BPs, BPd and morphologic changes of blood vessel. The results showed that compared with the control group, levels of IL-8, TNF-α, VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and the expression of actin increased or significantly increased in the model group with statistical significance (P< 0.05, orP< 0.01); LVEDP increased significantly (P< 0.01). However, LVSP,±dp/dtmax and BPs reduced (P< 0.05, orP< 0.01). The blood vessel wall became thicker. Compared with the model group, IL-8, TNF-α, VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and the expression of actin in the DMD and DHD group reduced or significantly reduced with statistical significance (P< 0.05, orP< 0.01); LVEDP reduced significantly in the DMD and DHD group with statistical significance (P< 0.01). While, LVSP,±dp/dtmax and BPs increased or significantly increased with statistical significance (P< 0.05, orP< 0.01). The thickening of blood vessel wall was inhibited. It was concluded thatDendrobium ofifcinale Kimura et Migo can improve cardiac function, which may take effect by improving and inhibiting pathologic changes of blood vessel and alleviating vessel injury.

Objective To compare the capabilities of culture method, polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) and serological test in identifying Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children with confirmed com-munity acquired pneumonia. Methods Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum samples were collected from hospitalized children with community acquired pneumonia in Capital Institute of Pediatrics from March to May in 2016. Three methods, traditional culture method, PCR and serological test, were respectively used to de-tect Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in those children. Statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS18. 0 software and chi-square test. Results Seventy-nine children with community acquired pneumonia were enrolled in this study. Eight (10. 13%) patients were diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infec-tions by the traditional culture method with an average positive culture period of 21 days. Twenty-three (29. 11%) patients showed positive results by using PCR analysis, including the 8 patients identified by the culture method. Forty-one (51. 90%) patients were found to be positive for Mycoplasma pneumoniae infec-tions by the serological test. However, four negative samples identified by the serological test were confirmed to be positive by PCR analysis, including two positive samples confirmed by the culture method. Statistical analysis showed that the differences in positive rates detected by using the three methods were statistically significant. Conclusion It is recommended that both serological test and PCR analysis should be used in combination with clinical symptoms for a comprehensive assessment of Mycoplasma pneumonia infection in children.

In order to get more pulse diagram valuable information, we summarized the traditional acceleration in the pulse chart based on the calculation of a new high-precision calculation of the acceleration pulse graph algorithms, being suitable for a large amount of data to adapt to requirements of high-resolution digital pulse diagram analysis, optimizing the acceleration pulse mapping process, reducing the impact of noise on data analysis, and improving the ability to distinguish details of the image. In addition, we used the spectrum analysis diagram for high-precision acceleration pulse. By doing so, we overcomed the traditional acceleration noise in the pulse data as the large loss, we found flat pulse, slippery pulse, taut pulse acceleration spectrum of feature points in the new Chinese medical traditional pulses. We then were able to recognize the pulse diagram calculated at the acceleration level to identify the frequency domain.
