The present study is aimed to investigate the early clinical effects of nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 intervertebral fusion cage (n-HA/PA66 cage) for the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases. We selected 27 patients with lumbar degenerative diseases who were managed by posterior decompression or reset operation combined with n-HA/PA66 cage intervertebral fusion and internal fixation from August 2010 to January 2012. The oswestry disability index (ODI), low back and leg pain visual analogue score (VAS), and intervertebral height (IH) were evaluated at preoperation, 1 week postoperation and the last follow-up period, respectively. Intervertebral bony fusion was evaluated at the last follow-up time. The patients were followed up for 12-24 months (averaged 19 months). The ODI, VAS and IH were significantly improved at 1 week postoperation and the last follow-up time compared with those at preoperative period (P < 0.05). But there was no significant difference between 1 week postoperative and the last follow-up time (P < 0.05). Brantigan's standard was used to evaluate fusion at the last follow-up time. There were 19 patients with grade 5 fusion, 8 with grade 4 fusion, with a fusion rate of 100%, and none with grade 1-3 fusions. There was no cage translocation and internal fixation breakage. These results suggested that n-HA/PA66 cage was an ideal biological material in the posterior lumbar interbody fusion and internal fixation operation for treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases. It can effectively maintain the intervertebral height and keep a high rate of bony fusion. The early clinical effect has been satisfactory.

Objective:
To learn the mutation types and hearing screening results in local newborns of Zhoushan,in order to provide evidence for prevention and early detection of deafness.
Methods:
The newborns in Zhoushan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from August 2015 to May 2018 were recruited and detected by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS)for twenty-two mutation sites of GJB2,SLC26A,GJB3 and 12SrRNA genes. The results of genotyping and hearing screening were analyzed and the hearing condition of abnormal newborns was followed up.
Results:
Among 4 029 newborns,180(4.47%)newborns were identified to carry mutations,including 94 males(4.66%)and 86 females (4.28%). There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of carrying mutations between male and female infants (P>0.05). Totally 135 (3.35%)newborns failed in primary hearing screening,13(9.63%)of whom carried the deafness genes;3 894(96.65%)newborns passed,167(4.29%)of whom carried the deafness gene. There was statistically significant difference in the the rate of carrying mutations between newborns who passed and failed in primary hearing screening (P<0.05). Eleven newborns were diagnosed with hearing loss,with a rate of 2.73‰. Among 180 mutations identified,there were 91 GJB2 mutations(2.26%),57 SLC26A4 mutations(1.41%),14 GJB3 mutations (0.35%),15 mtDNA 12SrRNA mutations (0.37%)and 3 with mutations of two genes (0.07%). Sixteen mutation sites (184 cases)were found,and the detection rate was 4.57%.
Conclusion
The rate of carrying deafness genes in Zhoushan newborns was 4.47%. The deafness genes found were mainly GJB2 and SLC26A4,the carrying rate of mtDNA 12SrRNA gene mutation was also high.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) in Zhoushan Area. Methods A total of 55 PIH patients who were treated in Zhoushan Women and Children Hospital from January 2010 to December 2012 were enrolled as the PIH group, and another 55 pregnant women without PIH were set as the control group. The serum calcium(Ca2+), phosphorus(P3+), total cesterol(TC), and triglyceride(TG) were detected by biochemical analyzer. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to reveal the potential correlations between these biochemical indicators and PIH. Results The serum levels of Ca2+, P3+, and TC between PIH group and control group were significantly different (P<0.01 or P<0.05), while the TG showed no significant difference between these two groups (P=0.15). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum P3+and TC were risk factors for PIH (P<0.01 or P<0.05) whereas serum Ca2+was a protective factor (P<0.01). Conclusion Serum Ca2+, P3+and TC levels can be used for monitoring PIH in the islands.
