Objective To investigate effects of thoracoscopic sternal elevation by using a steel bar(Nuss procedure) in the treatment of pectus excavatum in children.Methods Under the assistance of thoracoscopy,a substernal tunnel was created using a blunt dissector via a right thoracic incision.Then a steel bar was inserted under the sternum.After the bar was placed in position,it was turned over to elevate the deformed sternum and the anterior chest wall.Results The operation was completed successfully in all the 11 cases.The operating time ranged 50~85 min(mean, 67 min).The intraoperative blood loss ranged 5~20 ml(mean,10 ml).The surgical outcomes were classified as "excellent" in 9 cases,"good" in 1 case,and "fair" in 1.Follow-up observations for 2~15 months(mean,6.4 months) in 8 cases showed satisfactory appearance.Conclusions Thoracoscopic Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum in children is a minimally invasive technique with limited surgical trauma,minimal blood loss,simple performance,rapid recovery,and good cosmetic results,being worthy of recommendation.

Objective To evaluate the safety of intrvenous balanced propofol sedation with fentanyl in elderly patients during combined gastroscopy and colonoscopy procedures.Methods Totally 877 elderly patients aged (76.4 ± 8.5) years received intravenous propofol and fentanyl sedation during gastroscopy or/and colonoscopy procedures were assigned to groups:294 cases with only gastroscopy,257 cases with only colonoscopy and 326 cases with combined gastroscopy and colonoscopy.50 g Fentanyl and 0.5-1.0 mg/kg propofol were intravenously administered in the patients.The peripheral oxygen saturation,arterial pressure and heart rate were monitored and recorded during procedures.Results There were no procedure-related perforations and sedationassociated severe complications and mortalities,and no one need stop endoscopy procedures in all the patients.The average dosage of propofol in combined,gastroscopy and colonoscopy groups were (100.4±38.5) mg,(130.4±50.5)mg and (170.3± 60.3)mg,respectively.There were no significant differences in heart rate,arterial pressure and rate of cardiovascular events among groups (P＞0.05).The rate of respiration events in the above groups were 9 cases(3.1％),6 cases(2.3％)and 13 cases(4.0％),respectively (P＞0.05).Decrease of peripheral oxygen saturation was mainly induced by the aspiration of oral secretions and snoring.Conclusions Intravenous balanced propofol sedation provides safe and effective sedation in the elderly undergoing combined gastroscopy and colonoscopy.

The present study investigated the effect of BN50739, a new PAF antagonist, on the early reperfusion-induced arrhythmia in anesthetized SD rats, and by this to elucidate the role of PAF in the mechanism of early reperfusion-induced arrhythmia. The results indicated that the BN50739 group had lower incidences of premature ventricular contraction (PVQ, ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) during reperfusion than the control group (58.3% vs 66.7%, 50% vs 77.8%, and 16.7% vs 88.9%). But only VF incidence had a significant difference. Also the BN50739 group had shorter duration of VT+VF and of total arrhythmias than control group (58.8+171.9 vs 296.4+291.4, and 76.4+173.9 vs 361.8 + 286.5, P

Objective To observe the clinical effect of mesalazine combined with bifidobacterium in the treatment of ulcerative colitis and its effect on serum inflammatory cytokines.Methods 80 patients with ulcerative colitis were selected as the subjects.Auording to the digital table,the patients were randomly divided into observation group(40 cases) and control group(40 cases) by random number tables.The control group was treated with oral mesalazine only.The observation group was treated with bifidobacterium on the basis of the control group.Both two groups were treated for 8 weeks.Before and after treatment,the symptoms and microscopic manifestations were observed.The levels of CRP,TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-8 in venous blood were measured before and after treatment in the morning,and the clinical curative effect was evaluated.Results The proportions of diarrhea,abdominal pain and mucus bloody in the control group and the observation group were 20.0％ and 0.0％,22.5％ and 2.5％,20.0％ and 0.0％,respectively,which were significantly lower than those before treatment (x2 =46.036,72.381,26.467,52.379,22.175,48.000,all P ＜ 0.01).The improvement of diarrhea,abdominal pain and mucus bloody of the observation group was better than those of the control group(x2 =8.941,7.895,9.574,all P ＜ 0.05).The percentages of ulcers,erosions and bleeding points in the observation group and the control group were 22.5％ and 5.0％,32.5％and 10.0％,37.5％ and 7.5％,respectively,which were significantly lower than those before treatment (x2 =31.427,48.813,12.832,32.273,29.574,64.962,all P ＜ 0.01).The improvement of ulcer,erosive and bleeding in the observation group was better than those in the control group (x2 =5.084,6.74,10.853,all P ＜ 0.05).The levels of CRP,TNF-αt,IL-6 and IL-8 in the control group and observation group were (13.6 ± 3.6)mg/L and (7.8 ±1.2)mg/L,(28.4 ±9.6)ng/L and (15.6 ±7.1)ng/L,(141.3 ±21.4) ng/L and (90.5 ± 14.7) ng/L,(202.4 ±32.8) ng/L and (155.2 ± 25.4)ng/L,respectively,which were significantly lower than those before treatment (t =15.525 and 20.672,13.851 and 17.524,8.243 and 12.021,9.101 and 11.132,all P＜0.01),the CRP,TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-8 levels in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (t =7.456,6.325,7.543,all P ＜ 0.01).The effective rate in the observation group was 97.5 ％ (39/40),which was significantly higher than that in the control group (77.5 ％,31/40),the difference was statistically significant (x2 =7.680,P ＜0.05).Conclusion Mesalazine combined with bifidobacterium has exact clinical effect in the treatment of ulcerative colitis,it is more effective in improving clinical symptoms and microscopic manifestations,and can reduce the level of serum proinflammatory cytokines.It is worthy to be used.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of chest low-dose CT (LDCT) combined with computer-aided detection (CAD) system for lung cancer screening in high risk population. Methods Two hundred and nineteen healthy candidates underwent 64-slice LDCT scan. All images were reviewed in consensus by two radiologists with 15 years of thoracic CT diagnosis experience. Then the image data were analyzed with CAD alone. Finally images were reviewed by two radiologists with 5 years of CT diagnosis experience with and without CT Viewer software. The sensitivity, false positive rate of CAD for pulmonary nodule detection were calculated. SPSS 11.5 software and Chi-square test were used for the statistics. Results Of 219 candidates ,104(47.5% )were detected with lung nodules. There were 366 true nodules confirmed by the senior radiologists. The CAD system detected 271 (74.0%)true nodules and 424 false-positive nodules. The false-positive rate was 1.94/per case. The two junior radiologists indenfifid 292(79.8%), 286(78.1%) nodules without CAD and 336 (91.8%), 333 (91.0%) nodules with CAD respectively. There were significant differences for radiologists in indentifying nodules with or without CAD system (P<0.01). Conclusions CAD is more sensitive than radiologists for indentifying the nodules in the central area or in the hilar region of the lung. While radiologists are more sensitive for the peripheral and sub-pleural nodules,or ground glass opacity nodules, or nodules smaller than 4 mm. CAD can not be used alone. The detection rate can be improved with the combination of radiologist and CAD in LDCT screen.

In this study, a novel polyurethane membrane, modified by superfine silk-fibroin powder, was prepared for small-diameter vascular grafting. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and histological examination were applied to evaluate histocompatibility of this polyurethane membrane. The polyurethane membrane was compared with polytetrafluoroethylene material. A pseudomembrane and gap formed between polytetrafluoroethylene and the surrounding tissues, and no cells infiltrated or grew into the polytetrafluoroethylene material. On the contrary, superfine silk-fibroin powder/polyurethane blend membrane merged tightly with the surrounding tissues without gaps, and cells infiltrated and grew into the material. Moreover, the negative effects of superfine silk-fibroin powder/polyurethane blend membrane on cells were less than those of its polytetrafluoroethylene counterpart. Our findings indicated that the superfine silk-fibroin powder/polyurethane blend membrane has better histocompatibility than polytetrafluoroethylene membrane. It is concluded that the superfine silk-fibroin powder/polyurethane blend membrane is a promising biomaterial for small-diameter prosthesis.

Objective To investigate the morbility and epidemic characteristics of hair dye dermatitis in individuals who dyed their hair in Tianjin.Methods Questionnaires were distributed to the outpatients in the Gerneral Hospital of Tianjin Medical University,students and teachers in Tianjin Medical University,residents in the community and customers in barber shop from Aug.2007 to Mar.2008.The personal data including the methods and site of coloring hair and something correlated to hair dyes were investigated.Results A total of 597 cases with the history of coloring hair were enrolled in the study,including 485 women and 112 men,with mean age of 41 years (ranged from 16- 74years).Among 597 cases,69 cases had allergic reactions to hair dye,including 51 women and 18 men,with mean age of 44 years (ranged from 19-65 years).The median age of the first coloring hair was 40 years (ranged from 3-50 years).The comparison between the sites of coloring hair had no statistic significance (P ＞0.05),but there was a significant difference between black dyed hairs and col or dyed hairs (P ＜0.05).Conclusions People with black hair dye are prone to be allergic.

Objective To detect the steroid sulfatase (STS) gene mutation in a Chinese pedigree with X-linked ichthyosis (XLI). Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of 3 affected patients and unaffected members in this family and 50 unrelated healthy volunteers followed by the amplification of the exon 1 and exon 10 of STS gene by PCR. Results Complete deletion of the exon 1 to 10 of STS gene was detected in all the patients in this pedigree with XLI, while no mutation was found in this gene in unaffected members of this family or normal human controls. Conclusion The complete deletion of STS gene is likely to be the main cause of the phenotype of XLI in this family.
