Objective To investigate the occupational burnout status of rehabilitation therapists in medical institutions and analyze relat-ed factors. Methods From December, 2015 to February, 2016, a total of 264 rehabilitation therapists, selected with random cluster sampling method, were investigated with Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) in Bengbu, China. Results The detection rate of ther-apist burnout was 81.1%, and the average score was (3.13±1.07). There were significant differences in the score of occupational burnout and its three dimensions (P<0.05), except emotional exhaustion dimension among different ages (P>0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that the gender, age, marital status, educational background, professional title, shift work, job demand, job autonomy, social support, de-mand-autonomy ratio and income levels were the factors related with occupational burnout. Conclusion Rehabilitation therapists generally feel occupational burnout. It is different with demographic characteristics and working conditions.

Objective To prepare adriamycin gelatin microballoons and identify its characteristics,and to study the feasibility of utilizing the microballoon to block the conduction of peripheral nerves.Methods Adriamycin was embedded in gelatin by means of emulsify-cross link,and its physical-chemical property was tested.Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups including control group(group N),adriamycin group(group A)and adriamycin gelatin microballoon group(group M).0.1% Tween saline,0.5% adriamycin and the suspension of adriamycin gelatin microballoons were dropped separately onto the surface of denuded right sciatic nerve.The pain threshold of right hind limb,sciatic nerve function index(SFI)and pathological change were observed.Result The optimal proportion of drug and carrier was 1∶10.The microballoon was round in shape with perfect dispersibility.90% of the active ingredient could be released from the microballoons within 240 minutes.The pain thresholds in both groups A and M were elevated obviously,and the value of SFI was decreased markedly.These phenomena lasted only 60 days in group A,whereas over 90 days in group M.Conclusions The adriamycin gelatin microballoons possess a good appearance and a satisfactory performance of delayed release.It can damage eperipheral nerve,and may be used as a long acting neurolytic agent.

Objective To study the effects of high concentration oxygen exposure on the Sox17 expression of vascular endothelial cells of neonatal mice lungs,and to explore the pathogenesis of blocked lung vascular development.Methods Thirty two C57B1/6J newborn mice within six hours after birth were randomly divided to hyperoxia group (n=16) and room air group (n=16).Mice of hyperoxia group were exposed to 85％ oxygen.Eight mice of either group were sacrificed at 7 and 14 days after birth respectively to observe the lung morphology and calculate radial alveolar counts (RAC),which is the number of alveoli on the straight line from the center of respiratory bronchioles to the nearest fibrous septa or the pleura.Sox 17 expression in the pulmonary vessels was detected by immunohistochemical staining.Sox17 mRNA was measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.Sox17 protein level was measured by Western blot.Two independent samples t-test was used for statistical analysis.Results Compared with day 7,the lung structures matured with more uniformed alveoli and the septas became thinner on day t4 in room air group.However,the lungs developed slowly with simplified and non-uniformed alveoli on day 14 in hyperoxia group.The Sox17 protein was positive on endothelial cells of pulmonary arteries,veins and alveolar capillarys,as well as the alveolar epithelial cells.The RAC on day 7 and day 14 in hyperoxia group were both lower than that in room air group (3.7±0.7 vs 5.0±0.8,5.3±0.6 vs 8.3±0.9,respectively,t=3.057 and 8.148,both P ＜ 0.01).Sox17 mRNA on day 7 and day 14 in hyperoxia group were both lower than that in room air group (0.62±0.10 vs 0.88±0.11,0.44±0.06vs 0.90±0.15,t=3.607 and 6.926,both P ＜ 0.01).Sox17 protein level on day 7 and day 14 in hyperoxia group were both lowered than that in room air group (0.32±0.04 vs 0.76±0.04,0.36±0.07 vs 0.96±0.06,t=3.102 and 8.421,both P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Exposure of high concentration of oxygen may cause impairment of lung vascular development by inhibiting Sox17 expression in lungs of neonatal mice.

Objective To investigate the expression of placental growth factor (PlGF) protein and mRNA in lungs of neonatal rats exposed to 85%hyperoxia, and to establish the relationship between PlGF and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Methods Forty-eight Sprague–Dawley neonatal rats were randomly exposed to air (control group)(n=24) and 85% hyperoxia (hyperoxia group)(n=24)within 12 h after birth. The rats were sacrificed at 3, 5 and 7 days after exposure (eight at each time) and their lungs were sampled. PlGF protein and mRNA expression in the lungs were determined by Western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) at 3, 5 and 7 days. Left lung tissue was used for morphological and histological observation with hematoxylin and eosin staining. Terminal air spaces and the secondary septa were counted manually under microscope. T-test was applied for statistics. Results Compared with the control group, morphological and histological analysis in the hyperoxia group revealed inflammatory cell infiltration, simplified alveolar structure, less alveolar, alveolar cavity expansion and thickened alveolar septum. Morphometric measurements showed that terminal air spaces and secondary septa were significantly fewer in the hyperoxia rats than those in the control group at 5 and 7 days (terminal air spaces:23.6±8.2 vs 33.1±6.2 and 28.5±9.2 vs 38.4±10.1, t=1.91, 2.53, all P<0.05;secondary septa:56.0±12.2 vs 78.3±8.2 and 75.4±12.2 vs 126.1±10.2, t=2.14, 2.72, all P<0.05). Real-time PCR showed that expression of PlGF mRNA increased significantly on day 3, 5 and 7 in the hyperoxia group compared with the control group (1.16±0.17, 1.34±0.15 and 1.65±0.19 vs 0.65±0.21, 0.47±0.11 and 0.46±0.17, respectively, t=1.93, 2.55, 2.79, all P<0.05). Western blot also showed that expression of PlGF protein on day 3, 5 and 7 in the hyperoxia group increased compared with the control group, but only being significant on day 3 (0.24±0.17 vs 0.09±0.01, t=2.44, P<0.05). Conclusions Hyperoxia (85%) exposure could increase PlGF protein and mRNA expression in the lungs of neonatal rats, likely contributing to pathogenesis of BPD, and might lead to pulmonary vascular developmental disorders in BPD.

Objective To compare the effects of nitinol alloy memorial stent with silastic tube in treating the stenosis of the rabbit.Methods 16 rabbits with external ear canal(EEC) stenosis were randomly divided into two groups.One group was implanted with skin on the EEC wound while the other not.By self-comparison method nitinol alloy memorial stem was implanted in a rabbit's one ear and the silastic tube in the other.After days 5,15,30,and 60 later,the diameters of the external ear canal (with two materials planted) were measured respectively in the skin-planting group.In the naked group scar tissues were harvested and tested separately according to the planting material.HE coloration were used to study fibroblast hyperplasty while RT-PCR were applied to detecting the TGFβ1mRNA expression.The two brackets were compared according to their effect to scar hyperplasty.Results The EEC diameters using nitinol alloy memorial stem were found more spacious than using silastic tube.HE coloration showed the fibroblast hyperplasia was more mitigatory by using the nitinol alloy memorial stent.RT-PCR also found the TGFβ1mRNA expression was low by using same material.Conclusion The nitinol alloy memorial stent shows obvious superiority over silastic tube in external ear canal stenosis therapy.

Objective To assess the assistance role of three-dimensional reconstruction of stag-horn calculi by 16-slice spiral CT to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Methods A total of 87 patients with 104 staghorn stones underwent 24 F-tract PCNL. 16-slice spiral CT scan and three-di-mensional (3D) reconstruction by volume rendering technique were carried out before PCNL for tract placement planning, the necessity for multiple tracts and stone burden. Tract placement, tract num-ber, operation time, bleeding requiring transfusion and volume of stone cleared were recorded. KUB was taken to explore residual calculi after operation and thus stone free rate was noted. Results In-traoperative tract placement was according to preoperative planning with 3D reconstruction of calculi. Forty-three calculi were cleared by multiple accesses, while multiple accesses were supposed necessary for 47 caculi. The stone free rate of one-session operation was 87.5%, and the last stone free rate af-ter second-look procedure was 91.7%. The stone burden of 3D reconstruction of CT (19.35 ±19.24 cm3) was significantly correlated with the mean volume of cleared calculi (16.34±13.79 cm3) in oper-ation (r=0. 993, P=0. 000). Conclusion The 3D reconstruction of spiral CT for staghorn calculi could show the precise construction of calculi, which could help to plan tract placement, evaluate the necessity of multiple tracts and stone burden.

-Objective To evaluate the efficacy and morbidity of standard tract percu taneousnephrolithotomy (PCNL) for patients with open surgery history of kidney and upper ureter. Meth odsEleven patients with open surgery history of kidney and upper ureter underwent standard tract (24 F)PCNL. Five patients had open nephrolithotomy,3 had pyeloplasty,2 had open ureterolithotomy and 1had partial nephrectomy. Five calculi were in left kidney and 6 in right side. Two cases had single cal culus,5 had multiple,and 4 had staghorn calculi. The stone burden was 1.7 47.1 cm3. ResultsAll patients were successfully operated in one session procedure. Nine PCNLs were accomplished bysingle and 2 by double accesses. The mean operating time was 86.2±34.2 min,the mean first access ing time was 14.14±11.0 min. The stone free rate after one session operation was 91% (10/11). Nocomplication occurred. Conclusion Standard tract PCNL for patients with open surgery history ofkidney and upper ureter could be effective and safe.

Objective　To modify the Guy's stone score system and evaluate the validation of the modified score system in grading the complexity of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and predicting the stone-free rate after PCNL.　Methods　The modified system comprises 4 grades:grade Ⅰ,solitary stone in mid/lower pole or solitary stone in the pelvis with simple anatomy; grade Ⅱ,solitary stone in upper pole or multiple stones (located in 2 or more 2 calyces) in a patient with simple anatomy or a solitary stone in a patient with abnormal anatomy; grade Ⅲ,multiple stones in patients with abnormal anatomy or stones in a caliceal diverticulum or partial staghorn calculus; grade Ⅳ,staghorn calculus or any stone in a patient with spinal injury or spine malformation ( e.g.spina bifida,scoliosis,lordosis) ; kidney dysplasia ( e.g.duplex kidney,horseshoe kidney).It was validated on a database of 145 PCNL procedures performed by a single surgeon in a stone center.The clinical outcomes were retrospectively assessed with multivariate analysis.Results Of the 145 PCNL patients,according to Guy's stone score system and the modified score system,there were 22 G1 cases (15.2％) and 22 SFR cases (100.0％) ; 27 G2 cases (18.6％) and 25 SFR cases (92.6％); 36 G3 cases (24.8％) and SFR(31,86.1％); 60 G4 cases (41.4％) and 49 SFR cases ( 81.7％ ).Showing that the modified Guy's stone score was more accurate in predicting stone-free rate after PCNL ( P ＜ 0.05 ).　Conclusions　The modified Guy' s stone score system can accurately predict the stone-free rate after PCNL than the old system.

Objective To evaluate the ability of 64-slice spiral CT(64-MSCT) in demonstrating the coronary collateral circulation(CCC).Methods Patients undergoing 64- MSCT coronary angiography with relatively good image quality from August 2005 to April 2007 were entered into the study according to following requirements: patients underwent a traditional coronary artery angiography (CAG) after the coronary CT imaging; the CAG showed there was stenosis greater than 90% in at least one major coronary artery.The CCCs were assessed in CAG by the Rentrop grading, and the CAG served as the gold standard to determine the accuracy of 64-MSCT angiography in detecting collateral circulations.All CCCs were grouped angiographieally into three groups of CC0, CC1 ,and CC2 by Werner collateral collection(CC) grading.In the 64-MSCT coronary angiography imaging, a new grading(MSCT-CC) was used to evaluate CCCs.The consistency between these two grading standards was analyzed by Kappa test.Resalts A total of 97 patients were entered into the study, among whom at least one CCC was found by CAG in 37 patients and at least one CCC was detected by 64-MSCT angiography.Taken the CAG results as the reference standard, the sensitivity and specificity of the 64-MSCT angiography in detecting patients with the CCCs were 89.2% (33/37) and 93.8% (60/64) respectively.The sensitivity of the 64-MSCT angiography detecting the CCCs was 75.8% (47/62). All the CCCs detected by CAG and 64-MSCT angiography were grouped into three groups according to Werner grading: 4 in CC0 group, 24 in CC1 group and 19 in CC2 group.The CCCs were grouped into three groups according to MSCT-CC: 7 in MSCT-CC0 group, 22 in MSCT-CC1 group and 18 in MSCT-CC3 group.The consistency of the two grading criteria was relatively high (Kappa = 0.857, P < 0.01).Conclusion 64-MSCT angiography can accurately evaluate the coronary collateral circulation.
