OBJECTIVETo analyze the characteristics of cases of maxillary complex injury, to sum up experiences and lessons in the clinical first aid process, to evaluate different treatment effects of maxillary complex fracture and investigate the reasons for the failure of the treatment process.

METHODS152 cases with maxillary complex injury were analyzed retrospectively.

RESULTS2 cases (1.32%) died during emergency treatment. The cure rate was 62.67% (94/ 150) in the 150 survival cases. The cure rate of closed fractures were better than open ones and surgical treatments than non-surgical ways (P < 0.05); the cure rate of surgical treatment in stage I was higher than II (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONFor patients with complex injuries of maxillary, first aid failure is mainly due to bleeding or asphyxiation. Therapeutic efficacy is influenced by treatment time, surgical approach, type of treatment and so on. The key to success of treatment is dependent on the early firm internal fixation and the functional protection and restoration of injured organs or tissues.

Objective:To explore the status quo of job satisfaction, character advantage and subjective well-being of nursing staff, and to explore the relationship among the three, so as to provide theoretical basis for improving the subjective well-being of medical staff.Methods:Using cluster random sampling method, 582 nursing staff in Jinzhou City of Liaoning Province were selected as the survey objects. The General Information Questionnaire, Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire, Character Strengths Scale and Subjective Well-being Scale were used to investigate the respondents. The mediating effect of character strengths on job satisfaction and subjective well-being was analyzed by structural equation model. The mediating effect was analyzed and verified by bootstrap method.Results:The score of Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire, Character Strengths Scale and Subjective Well-being Scale of nursing staff were 70.5 ± 10.8, 45.0 ± 6.8 and 24.2 ± 6.3 respectively. The results of correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between the total score of job satisfaction and the total score of character strengths of nursing staff ( r=0.214, P<0.01), and the total score of subjective well-being ( r=0.373, P<0.01). The total score of subjective well-being was positively correlated with the total score of character strengths ( r=0.123, P<0.01). Conclusions:The character strengths of nursing staff plays a mediating role between job satisfaction and subjective well-being.

It is very important to obtain high yield mutant strains on the base of metabolic flux analysis of Actinobacillus succinogenes S.JST for the industrial bioconversion of succinic acid. The metabolic pathway was analized at first and the flux of the metabolic networks was calculated by matrix. In order to decrease acetic acid flux, the strains mutated by soft X-ray of synchronous radiation were screened on the plates with high concentration of fluoroacetic acid. For decreasing the metabolic flux of ethanol the site-directed mutagenesis was carried out for the reduction of alcohol dehydrogenase(Adh) specific activity. Then the enzyme activity determination and the gene sequence analysis of the mutant strain was compared with those of the parent strain. Metabolic flux analysis of the parent strain indicated that the flux of succinic acid was 1.78(mmol/g/h) and that the flux of acetic acid and ethanol were 0.60 (mmol/g/h) and 1.04( mmol/g/h), respectively. Meanwhile the metabolic pathway analysis showed that the ethanol metabolism enhanced the lacking of H electron donor during the synthesis of succinic acid and that the succinic acid flux was weakened by the metabolism of byproducts ethanol and acetic acid. Compared with the parent strain, the acetic acid flux of anti-fluoroacetic mutant strain S.JST1 was 0.024 (mmol/g/h), decreasing by 96%. Then the enzyme determination showed that the specific activity unit of phosphotransacetylase(Pta) decreased from 602 to 74 and a mutated site was founded in the pta gene of the mutant strain S.JST1. Compared with that of the parent strain S.JST1 the ethanol flux of adh-site-directed mutant strain S.JST2 was 0.020 (mmol/g/h), decreasing by 98%. Then the enzyme determination showed that the specific activity unit of Adh decreased from 585 to 62 and the yield of end product succinic acid was 65.7 (g/L). The interdiction of Adh and Pta decreased the metabolism of byproducts and the H electron donor was well balanced, thus the succinic acid flux was strengthened by the redundant carbon flux from these byproducts. The mutant strain S.JST2 obtained in this paper deserves being extended to application of industrial fermentation.

This study was undertaken to explore whether the graft-versus-host-disease could be decreased and graft-versus-leukemia effect be retained by transplantation of allogeneic T helper-2 (Th2) cells. T cells from C57BL/6(H-2b) mice were incubated and polarized with rmIL-4, Con A and ionomycin in vitro, and then, the T cells were mixed with marrow cells and transplanted into recipient BALB/c(H-2d) mice bearing erythroleukemia cells. The occurence of GVHD and GVL effect was observed. The results showed that the mean survival time in the groups of untreated control, cyclophosphamide treatment, marrow and spleen T cell transplantation and marrow and Th2 cell transplantation was 10.6 +/- 1.3, 18.7 +/- 4.2, 22.7 +/- 7.4 and 36.9 +/- 10.8 days, respectively. In untreated control and cycophosphamide treatment groups, all of ten mice died from leukemia. Nine of ten mice died from GVHD in marrow and spleen T cells transplantation group. In marrow and spleen Th2 cell transplantation group, three of ten mice died from GVHD, and GVHD was not occurred in the other seven mice, and there was no any evidence of leukemia in two mice on 50 days after transplantation. It was concluded that tranplantation with polarized Th2 cells could relieve GVHD, and at the same time retain the GVL effect.

Purpose To synthetically evaluate MR diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) using Meta-analysis to differentiate diagnostic value of benign and malignant breast lesions and quantitatively analyze mean kurtosis (MK) values of benign and malignant breast lesions in an attempt to provide evidence-based facts for clinical decision making. Materials and Methods Computer-based retrieval of Chinese and English literatures concerning differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions with application of DKI publicly published at home and abroad in PubMed, Ebsco, Embase, CNKI, Cochrane Library, CBM, VIP Data database from January. 1, 2006 to September. 30, 2017. Two valuators independently screened and extracted data according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and drew on QUADAS for quality assessment, Stata 12.0 and Meta-Disc 1.4 software for Meta analysis and extraction of relevant parameters. Results Totally 8 up-to-standard literatures were included, including 3 in English and 5 in Chinese. The total number of focus was 689. Corresponding effect model analysis revealed that MK value in malignant breast lesion group was higher than that in benign lesion group, the difference of which was statistically significant. The optimal diagnostic threshold was determined by the maximum Youden index, which was approximately 0.71 in size,with combined sensitivity of 0.907(95% CI 0.860-0.939),specificity of 0.910(95% CI 0.856-0.945),positive likelihood ratio of 10.053(95% CI 6.293-16.059),negative likelihood ratio of 0.102(95% CI 0.068-0.154),and diagnostic test odds ratio of 98.203(95% CI 55.014-175.296).The area under receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.96.MK value suggested 94% posterior malignant rate of malignant breast lesions, and 13% malignant rate of benign breast lesions. Conclusion MK value has high diagnostic value for benign and malignant breast lesions with good sensitivity and specificity.
