Many controversies and unanswered questions surround AIS(adolescent idiopathic scoliosis),the most difficult one is the absence of information about its aetiopathogenesis.Although bracing has been regarded as the standard of care for patients at a high risk of progression,it has never been subjected to rigorous assessment of either its efficacy or effectiveness.With respect to surgical management,although technology has greatly increased the safety with which we can correct spinal deformity and preserve spinal balance,long-term results of these changing methods of management are absent.Surgery can reduce deformity and prevent further progression;thereby decreasing the risk of future cardiopulmonary compromise,but its role in the prevention of other negative long-term effects of scoliosis is not clear.In this paper we discuss present notions about aetiopathogenesis,natural history,non-operative treatment,and surgery.

The compositions and contents of fatty acids in the meat and viscera in Chlamys ferreri near Yantai seacoast, Shandong Province were studied in detail. The result showed that the contents of the unsaturated fatty acids in the meat and wastes were 65. 0% and 66. 2%, respectively. Moreover, the contents of the polyunsaturated fatty acids and EPA+DHA were 55. 1% and 37. 5% in the meat, respectively. The contents in the viscera were 48. 8% and 22. 2%, respectively.

Objective To observe the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on cognitive function in rats with chronic cerebral hypoperfusion.Methods The animal model of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion was established in 30 Sprague-Dawley rats by surgically induced bilateral common caroid artery stenosis,who were then divided into a control group and a treatment group.The rats in the treatment group were administered with 20 Hz rTMS 4 weeks postoperation for 7days.Another 10 rat subject to sham operation served as blank controls.The cognitive function was assessed by Morris water maze (MWM) at the time points of 2nd,3rd,4th and 5th days after ending of the 4 weeks of tretment.The morphologic changes of hippocampus neurons were observed with HE staining.The apoptosis was examined by TUNEL,the expression of Bcl-2 or Bax protein was determined using immnunohistochemistry assay.Results At all the time points the MWM escape latency in the rTMS group was shorter than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.01).The percentage of crossing the corresponding platform during the same time period in platform quadrant in the rTMS group was significant higher than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with the control group,the treatment group demonstrated significantly decreased percentage of neuronal apoptosis (P ＜0.05),as well as increased expression of Bcl-2 protein (P ＜0.01) and reduced expression of Bax protein (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion rTMS can improve the cognitive dysfunction in rats caused by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion,probably through inhibiting neuronal apoptosis in hippocampus region.

Objective:The present study discussed the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic body and tail carcinoma. Methods:The data of 52 patients with pancreatic body and tail carcinoma treated in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2008 to December 2012 were reviewed retrospectively. The data included historical materials of perioperative examination and therapy. The data of 49 cases were reviewed retrospectively, and the median survival was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The effects of the clinicopathologic parameters on the prognosis of patients with pancreatic body and tail carcinoma were examined by the log rank test. Results:Thirty-eight patients underwent exploratory surgery among which 24 had surgical resection, and the standard procedure was distal pancreatectomy plus splenectomy. The tumor staging was stage I in five patients (13.16%), stage II in nineteen patients (50%), stage III in five patients (13.16%), and stage IV in nine patients (23.67%). The median survival time was 18.0 ± 1.23 months for patients who received radical resection and 10.0 ± 2.71 months for patients who underwent nonspecific treatment or palliative therapy. The radical resection was associated with a longer survival period than the nonspecific treatment or palliative therapy (P<0.01). Conclusion:Early diagnosis is the key to achieving long-term survival. The radical resection plays an important role in improving the surgical treatment.

Sustained release drug delivery from microparticles is an excellent alternative for daily protein/peptide drug administration protocol. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) are the most commonly used polymer carriers in the development of protein/peptide microspheres. Basically there are three preparation methods for PLA/PLGA microspheres: the solvent extraction/evaporation based multiple emulsion (W/O/W emulsion) method, the phase separation method and the spray drying method. The stability of the protein/pipetide loaded, encapsulation efficiency, and the burst effect of the microspheres are key problems usually met in the preparation of microspheres. In this review the preparation techniques and progress in the development of protein/pipetide microspheres which aimed to stabilize protein/peptide structural integrity, keep the bioactivity of drugs, increase the encapsulation efficiency and improve the release profile were summarized and evaluated.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of the optical microscope on the quality control of the coagulation specimen microscopic examination before the coagulation test.Methods 92 patients with coagulation specimens agglutination occurs which taken were selected as the experimental group,92 patients re-blood microscopy to ensure that no agglutination phenomenon was set to control,observed differences in coagulation indexes of the two groups.Results The PT,APTT,TT and Fg were statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05) between experimental group and control group by the q test.Different agglutination specimens group in the experimental group by analysis of variance,PT,APTT.TT and Fg were statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05) between groups comparison of the q test analysis,PT,APTT,TT and Fg were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05).With the aggravation of blood specimens agglutination,PT,APTT and TT time extension and Fg concentration reduce more serious.Conclusion Optical microscope before the introduction of clotting function tests experimental quality control a large extent,to enhance the accuracy of laboratory coagulation test results,clinical diagnosis and preoperative preparation has important clinical value.
