Objective To investigate the effect of anti-syphilis treatment on the perinatal outcomes and neonatal prognosis in pregnant women complicated with syphilis.Methods One hundred and ninety eight pregnant women complicated with syphilis were collected from Chengdu Hospital of Infectious Diseases during January 2010 and January 2012,including 98 cases received standard treatment,59 cases received nonstandard treatment and 41 cases did not receive treatment.Pearson x2 and partition of chi-square were used for the comparison of pregnant outcomes,neonatal prognosis and negative rates of rapid plasma circle card test (RPR) among 3 groups.Results The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes,including miscarriage,prematurity,still birth and congenital malformation were 4.08%,27.12% and 63.41% in three groups,respectively.The incidence of congenital syphilis,low birth weight,asphyxia in infants and neonatal death raised in from standard-treatment group,nonstandard-treatment group to untreated group.Congenital syphilis rates were 2.04%,18.75% and 35.29% in three groups,respectively.RPR titers in newborns from mothers with high RPR titer (≥ 1 ∶ 8) in standard-treatment group were significantly lower than those in nonstandard-treatment group and untreated group (x2 =37.122,P < 0.01).RPR negative rates were 100.00%,59.26% and 25.00% in three groups,respectively (x2 =18.839,P < 0.01).Conclusion Standard anti-syphilis treatment can improve pregnant outcome,neonatal prognosis and reduce the incidence of congenital syphilis.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) plus bone cement enhancement in the treatment of geriatric osteoporotic femoral intertrochanteric fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 52 elderly patients with osteoporotic femoral intertrochanteric fracture who had been treated at Department of Bone and Joint Surgery, The Fourth People's Hospital of Guiyang from September 2012 to October 2018 by PFNA internal fixation plus bone cement enhancement. They were 8 males and 44 females, aged from 65 to 91 years (average, 78 years). The time from injury to operation averaged 4.4 d. By the AO/OTA classification, there were one case of type 31-A1.2, 2 cases of type 31-A2.1, 8 cases of type 31-A2.2, 34 cases of type 31-A2.3, one case of type 31-A3.1, and 6 cases of type 31-A3.3. The patients' operation time, intraoperative bleeding, hospital stay, fracture reduction, postoperative weight-bearing time, fracture union time, function of the affected hip and complications were recorded.Results:The operation time for this cohort averaged 79.4 min, intraoperative bleeding 123.6 mL, and hospital stay 11.9 d. By the Francisco evaluation, the reduction of intertrochanteric fracture was assessed as good in 43 cases and as fair in 9 cases. Of this cohort, 45 were followed up for 5 to 12 months (average, 6 months) and 7 lost to follow-up. By the Harris hip scores at the last follow-up, 14 cases were rated as excellent, 25 as good and 6 as fair, giving an excellent to good rate of 88.9% (39/45). No complications like loosening, cut-out or breakage of implants or femoral head necrosis occurred during follow-up.Conclusion:In the treatment of geriatric osteoporotic femoral intertrochanteric fractures, PFNA plus bone cement enhancement can achieve satisfactory clinical efficacy.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic central neurodegenerative disease. The pathological features of AD are the extracellular deposition of senile plaques formed by amyloid-β oligomers (AβOs) and the intracellular accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles formed by hyperphosphorylated tau protein. In this paper, an in vitro pathological model of AD based on neuronal network chip and its real-time dynamic analysis were presented. The hippocampal neuronal network was cultured on the microelectrode array (MEA) chip and induced by AβOs as an AD model to simultaneously record two firing patterns from the interneurons and pyramidal neurons. The spatial firing patterns mapping and cross-correlation between channels were performed to validate the degeneration of neuronal network connectivity. This biosensor enabled the detection of the AβOs toxicity responses, and the identification of connectivity and interactions between neuronal networks, which can be a novel technique in the research of AD pathological model .

In this paper, an in vitro pathological model of AD based on neuronal network chip and its real-time dynamic analysis were presented. The hippocampal neuronal network was cultured on the microelectrode array (MEA) chip and induced by AβOs as an AD model in vitro to simultaneously record two firing patterns from the interneurons and pyramidal neurons. The spatial firing patterns mapping and cross-correlation between channels were performed to validate the degeneration of neuronal network connectivity. This biosensor enabled the detection of the AβOs toxicity responses, and the identification of connectivity and interactions between neuronal networks, which can be a novel technique in the research of AD pathological model in vitro.
