Objective To value the application of surface electromyography(sEMG)in assessing the functional electrical stimulation(FES)used in children with spastic diplegia.Methods 20 children with spastic diplegia were treated with FES.They were assessed with the sEMG and the clinical assessment before and after treatment.Results After treatment,the iEMG of the biceps brachii and quadriceps decreased significantly on the functional position,but increased significantly when the muscles contracted.Conclusion FES can reduce the spasticity and increase the strength of the limbs in children with spastic diplegia.The sEMG can be used as an objective assessment tool.

OBJECTIVE To study the prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases(STDs) among high-risk women in reeducation centers in Shenzhen in 2001,and evaluate their periodontal and oral membrane infection status. METHODS Based on the WHO Oral Health Survey Basic Methods(1987) the STDs surveillance in 2001 had been conducted among them.Data were collected and analyzed. RESULTS Out of the 302 examinees in reeducation centers,60(19.8%) cases were identified as having STDs.The prevalence rate of gingivitis was 57.6%,dental calculus rate was 25.8%,early periodontitis rate was 4.96%,and the late periodontitis rate was 0.9%.Only(7 cases) suffered from oral-membrane disease,the rate was 2.3%. CONCLUSIONS The women with high risk in reeducation centers are the most potential sources of STDs infections.Their oral health status is as same as normal people,so it is important for oral medical workers to protect the health of patients and themselves with effective management,and enhance the works on hospital infection control.

Objective To explore the surface electromyography(EMG)characteristics of biceps brachii during isometric contraction in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.Methods The surface electromyograms signals of biceps brachii of 10 children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy during passive isometric contraction were recorded.Results The intact side registered a stronger EMG than that of the affected side,the integrated electromyography(iEMG)and root mean square(RMS)levels from the intact side were higher than those of affected side significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion The results of electromyographic analysis are consistent with Modified Ashworth Scale.Electromyographic analysis can provide a satisfactory evaluation of the muscle tone in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.

Objective To observe the effect of static balance test and training equipment on the equilibrium function in children with spastic diplegia.Methods 24 children with spastic diplegia were treated with visual feedback balance training besides routine rehabilitation training.All cases were assessed with Berg Balance Scale(BBS) and the static balance test and training equipment when eyes opened and closed,before and after the 8-week training.Results After the 8 week-training,the BBS scores of all children were higher than that before training(P<0.05).In the segment of the static balance test,fall index,weight distribution index and stability index decreased significantly(P<0.05～0.01).Conclusion The equilibrium function of the children with cerebral palsy can be assessed and pertinent training can be performed with balance equipment.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the factors implicated in the diagnosis and treatment of early gastric caner.Methods Fifty Patients early gastric caner with diagnosed from March 2004 to May 2006,were investigated in the study retrospectively.ResultsAll of the patients were diagnosed accurately by the gastroscopy,among which 2 had atrophic gastritis history for 6 or 10 years,respectively.Twenty-four masses were located in gastric pylorus,12 in gastic angular incisure,14 in gastric body.D2 radical mastectomy was performed in 41 cases,and D1 radical mastectomy in 9 cases.In 10 cases the diameter of tumors was ＜1 cm,17 cases 1 -2 cm,14 cases 2-3 cm,9 cases ＞3 cm.Lymph node involvements were observed in five cases ( 10％ ).Follow data were available in 48 cases.Among them,3 died from local recurrence and metastasis at postoperative 10,12,19 months respectively. Conclusions Although endosopic mucosal resection or limited surgical resection is a reasonable treatment for some early gastric caner patients,D2 radical mastectomy is necessary for most early gastric caner patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous thoracic paravertebral block anal-gesia guided by sonography on pulmonary function after thoracotomy.Methods Sixty patients,male 29 cases,female 31 cases,aged 18-60 years,BMI 1 6-28 kg/m2 ,ASA grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ,who had under-went thoracotomy were divided randomly into 2 groups,30 cases each:group G with general anesthe-sia and postoperative patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA),whereas group GP with general anesthesia combined with continuous thoracic paravertebral block (CTPVB)and postoperative continuous CTPVB.CTPVB were performed before induction as the patient was conscious so that the effect of CTPVB could be tested by blocking range.Both resting and coughing visual analogue scales (VAS)were recorded at the points of 30 minutes after extubation (T1 ),2 hours after operation (T2 ),6 hours after operation (T3 ),24 hours after operation (T4 )and 48 hours after operation (T5 ). Forced vital capacity (FVC),forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1 )and maximal mid expiratory flow (MMF)were measured by spirometer and the three maximal values were recorded at time points of entry of operating room (T0 ),T4 and T5 .Blood gas analysis was employed at corre-sponding time points by a blood gas analyzer and oxygen inhalation was ceased 30 minutes before drawing blood from radial artery.PaCO 2 ,PaO 2 and alveolararterial oxygen difference (PA-a O 2 )were recorded.Adverse effects were observed.Results Compared with group G,VAS when resting and coughing in group GP at T1-T5 decreased significantly (P <0.05).Compared with T0 ,FVC,FEV1 , MMF and PaO 2 at T4 ,T5 in both groups decreased significantly (P <0.05),PA-a O 2 increased signifi-cantly (P <0.05 ).Compared with group G,PaO 2 in group GP at T4 ,T5 increased and PA-a O 2 in group GP at T4 ,T5 decreased significantly (P <0.05).Conclusion CTPVB guided by sonography had excellent effect.It can not only improve pulmonary function after thoracotomy significantly but also promote intrapulmonary oxygenation.

Objective To investigate whether human breast milk may bind to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and its characteristics.Methods Breast milk samples from five women with negative HBsAg and hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) at one to two months post delivery were fractioned into cream and skimmed milk by centrifugation.The human breast milk and each fraction as well as cow and goat milk samples,served as controls,were separately incubated with highly purified yeast recombinant HBsAg,followed by determination of their binding capability to HBsAg by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the inhibition rate for binding of HBsAg to anti-HBs by quantitative chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay.After boiled for 1 min or pasteurized in 65 ℃ for 30 min,the thermal stability of the active components of milk was detected.One-way ANOVA and SNK tests were performed for statistical analysis.Results The operative concentration of HBsAg was 0.1 μg/ml.Breast milk from all five women showed significantly better binding capability to HBsAg than cow or goat milk (1.306±0.300 vs 2.157±0.150 and 2.232±0.093,F=34.303,P＜0.01).The quantitative experiments showed that the inhibition rate of human breast milk was higher than that of the control group [(74.26± 17.26)％ vs (0.00±5.50)％,F=57.806,P＜0.01].The binding ability to HBsAg of skimmed milk was comparable with that of whole milk,indicating milk protein(s) played critical roles in binding to HBsAg (0.877 ± 0.486 vs 0.513 ± 0.069 and 0.376 ± 0.146,F=44.475,P＜0.01).After boiled for 1 min or Pasteurization,the binding ability to HBsAg of whole breast milk remained,but that of skimmed milk went down (F=16.598,P＜0.01).Both whole breast milk and skimmed milk could inhibit the binding of HBsAg to anti-HBs (F=278.341 and 269.408,both P＜0.01).Conclusions The inhibition of binding to HBsAg by human breast milk indicates that human milk may interact with HBsAg.The active components mainly exist in milk proteins and are thermal stable.

Objective To approach the expression and significance of CD30 in Hodgkin lymphoma cells which were transfected with mtr Ⅱ gene. Methods The CD30 expression of Hodgkin lymphoma cells in those transfected with mtr Ⅱ gene was analysed by immunohistochemical technique respectively. Results The CD30 expression rate of Hodgkin lymphoma cells which were transfected with mtr Ⅱ gene was higher than that of Hodgkin lymphoma cells which weren't transfected with mtrⅡ gene (P ＜0.01). Conclusion The mtr Ⅱ gene may be related to the malignant transformation of Hodgkin lymphoma.

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between gross motor function and intelligence in school-age children with cerebral palsy. Methods93 school-age children with cerebral palsy were assessed with Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) and Children Adaptive Behavior Scale (CABS). ResultsThe classification of GMFCS did not correlated with intelligence quotient （r=0.184,P>0.05), nor the adaptive behavior （r=0.056,P>0.05）. ConclusionThere is no correlation between gross motor function and intelligence in school-age children with cerebral palsy.

Objective To study the expression of p27kip1 and Ki67 proteins in various types of gastric polyp and the relationship be-tween gastric polyp and gastric carcinoma (CA:). Methods The expression of p27kip1 and Ki67 proteins were detected in normal gastric mu-cosa, hyperplasie polyp, adenomatons polyp, and carcinoma by S-P immunohistochemical staining. Results In the normal gastric mucosa,hyperplasie polyp, adenomatous polyp and gastric carcinoma, the expression rate of the p27kip1 protein was 90. 00% ,70. 00% ,65.00% and 30. 43%, respectively. The positive rate of p27kip1 protein in gastric cancer was significantly lower than that in other tissues. The rate of Ki67 protein expression in those tissues was 10. 00%, 15.00%, 45.00%, and 73.33%, respectively. The positive rate of Ki67 protein in gastric cancer was significantly higher than that in other tissues. And the positive rate of Ki67 in adenomatous polyp was significantly higher than that in the normal gnstric mucosa and hyperplasic polyp. There were significant differences among them(P <0.05). There was no correlation between the expression of p27kip1 and Ki67 proteins in gastric polyp(rs=-0. 093, P >0. 05). Conclusion Detection of p27kip1 and Ki67 proteins in gastric polyp was very helpful in early diagnosis and prognosis of GC.
