OBJECTIVE To know the status of management knowledge and disposal process of medical waste in village.METHODS Questionnaire was conducted among crowds randomly selected from Huishi,taipin,Gangou and Hepan town in Huining country of GanSu province.RESULTS The understanding rate of management regulation of medical waste among crowd in these four town was 12.31%;The touching opportunity to medical waste was very high;When medical waste was manipulated,people of chooseing to bury accounted for 12.15%,choosing to throw 43.35%,choosing localized manipulate accounted for 4.43%;The phenomenon of throwing medical waste was very serious(85.77%).CONCLUSIONS The understanding rate of management regulation of medical waste are not high,wehereas the touching opportunity was very high in the village.At the same time,the phenomenon of throwing medical waste was very serious and correct manipulating rate are not high.So we should strengthen the education of correlated policy,formulate eligible manipulating method,improve and consummate scientific management system of the medical waste in village.

A hybrid segmentation algorithm is proposed for automatic segmentation of blood cell images based on adaptive multi-scale thresholding and seeded region growing techniques. Firstly, an adaptive and scale space filter (ASSF) is applied to image histogram and a scale space image is built. According to the properties of the scale space image, proper thresholds can be obtained to separate the nucleus from the original image and the white blood cells are located. Secondly, the local color similarity and global morphological criteria constrain seeded region growing in order to finish the segmentation of the cytoplasm. The detection accuracy of white blood cell is 98% and the segmentation accuracy based on the subjective evaluation is 93%. Test shows that this algorithm is effective for automatic segmentation of white blood cells.

Objective: To biomechanically compare the initial stability of two cervical interbody cages with different surfaces on human specimens.Methods: Flexibility of twenty-three cervical motion segments (two groups) were tested in axial rotation, flexion/extension and lateral bending, intact and after implantation of a cervical interbody fusion cage (SynCage-C Curved, SynCage-C Wedged). An implant pullout concluded testing. Changes in range of motion (ROM) were analyzed.Results: Both cages were effective at reducing ROM in all directions, with no significant differences in effacency. The pullout force differed significantly between the two cages, the SynCage Curved being higher. Conclusion: Differences of surfaces of the two cages don't affect their initial stability. The cage with a better contoured surface had a higher pullout force.

Objective To detect the expression change of ETFβin diabetic nephropathy rats and study the role of ETFβin fatty acid-induced apoptosis in renal tubules.Methods Diabetic nephropathy model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin and unilateral nephrectomy.In vivo ETFβexpression was detected in renal cortex, as well as tubular injury evaluated.In vitro fatty acid-induced apoptosis in renal tubular cells NRK 52E model was established and ETFβrecombinant plasmid was constructed to be transfected into NRK 52E cells and furtherly to observe the effect of ETFβover-expression on the fatty acid-induced apoptosis.Results In the rats model of diabetic nephropathy induced by streptozotocin injection and unilateral nephrectomy, ETFβmRNA and protein expression were decreased as obvious tubular damage occurred.Fatty acids could induce apoptosis in NRK 52E, and ETFβover-expression reduced the apoptosis.Conclusion The expression of ETFβis decreased in diabetic nephropathy model , and ETFβover-expression can reduce apoptosis induced by fatty acid in renal tubular cells.

0.05). Conclusion It seems that LTA gene polymorphism has no significant correlation with the risk of osteoporosis in patients suffering from COPD.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical application of antimicrobial agents and give corresponding analysis.METHODS Totally 1453 cases from Dec 2005 to Jan 2006 were investigated retrospectively according to questionaire,and the usage of antibiotics was analyzed according to the standards.RESULTS Among 1453 cases,1155 cases used antibiotic and accounted for 79.5%,of which 47.3% cases were for single-drug therapy,44.1% cases for dual-drug therapy,7.4% cases were for tri-drug therapy and 1.2% cases for more than four kinds drugs.The top five departments in usage amount of antibiotics were stomatology,burn,surgery,pediatrics and respiratory departments.The most common antibiotics were cephalosporins,nitromidazole and catastaltica containing enzymes.The main irrational application of antibiotics included medication without indication,using high standard medicine and illogicality course of treatment and so on.CONCLUSIONS The application of antibiotics in internal medicine still has some irrational phenomenon,therefore,the training of correlated knowledge and regulations should be strengthened.

Objective To investigate perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis in thyroid operation at all levels of hospitals in a province.Methods From January 1 ,2011 to December 31 ,2013,all kinds of thyroid operation in a province were conducted targeted monitor,investigated results were analyzed.Results A total of 1 304 cases of thy-roid operation were investigated,1 294 (99.23%)were elective operation;duration of operation of 1 051 cases (80.60%)were ≤2 hours;antimicrobial use rate was 96.70%;196 patients (15.45%)were administered 30 mi-nutes before operation,887 patients (70.34%)used antimicrobial agents for >48 hours;19.53% of patients used the first generation cephalosporins and clindamycin.Conclusion There are some problems in antimicrobial use in thyroid operation in this province,such as inappropriate choice of antimicrobial agents,improper administration time,long time use of antimicrobial agents,and use antimicrobial agents without indications.Management of anti-microbial agents should be strengthened,so as to promote the rational use of antimicrobial agents.

The support vector machine (SVM) is a new learning technique based on the statistical learning theory. It was originally developed for two-class classification. In this paper, the SVM approach is extended to multi-class classification problems, a hierarchical SVM is applied to classify blood cells in different maturation stages from bone marrow. Based on stepwise decomposition, a hierarchical clustering method is presented to construct the architecture of the hierarchical (tree-like) SVM, then the optimal control parameters of SVM are determined by some criterion for each discriminant step. To verify the performances of classifiers, the SVM method is compared with three classical classifiers using 3-fold cross validation. The preliminary results indicate that the proposed method avoids the curse of dimensionality and has greater generalization. Thus, the method can improve the classification correctness for blood cells from bone marrow.

Objective To investigate the effects of Tangshen Formula on liver oxidative stress in diabetic rats, and their mechanisms thereof.Methods Rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease was estab?lished by intraperitoneally injecting small dose of chain urea with cephalosporins (STZ) and feeding high fat fodder . The model rats were randomly divided into control group, model group, Tangshen Formula group and metformin group.The se?rum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (CHO), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase(CAT), vitamin E(VE), nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in liver were compared between four groups. Changes of pathological morphology were ob?served under light microscopy. Results There were significantly decrease in serum levels of ALT, AST, TG, CHO, LDL-C in Tangshen Formula group and metformin group compared with those of model group. There were significantly higher levels of SOD, CAT and VE, and lower levels of NO and NOS of liver homogenate in Tangshen Formula group than those of model group. There were higher levels of SOD and CAT, and lower levels of NO and NOS in liver homogenate in metformin group than those of model group. HE staining showed that liver fatty degeneration was significantly reduced in metformin group and Tangshen Formula group compared with that of model group. Conclusion The fatty liver in type 2 diabetic rats is signifi?cantly improved by Tangshen Formula treatment, which is probably associated with the regulation of the response level to oxi?dative stress in liver.
