Objective To investigate whether perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) can be used to evaluate blood perfusion of patients with leukoaraiosis (LA), its relationship to clinical features, and the therapy effect of LA. Methods The 44 patients with LA were recruited in the study. All the subjects were examined with both conventional and dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced perfusion MR imaging, 13 of them repeated the examinations after the treatment. The shapes and sizes of the biggest lesions in each patient were confirmed by conventional MR imaging, then the values of relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV), relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and relative mean transit time (rMTT) in each lesion were calculated respectively. Furtherly, a Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to show whether these values were correlated with mini-mental state examination (MMSE)scores or activities of daily living (ADL) scores. Results The 44 lesions of all the subjects showed significant decreases in rCBV (0. 797 ± 0. 160) and rCBF (0. 779± 0. 164) but increase in rMTT (1. 029±0. 073). There were positive correlations between rCBV and MMSE (r = 0. 524, P =0. 000), between rCBV and ADL (r=0. 621, P=0. 000), between rCBF and MMSE (r=0. 555, P=0. 000), and between rCBF and ADL (r= 0. 690, P= 0. 000), and negative correlations between rMTTand MMSE (r=-0.307, P=0.043), and between rMTT and ADL (r=-0.434, P=0. 003). The blood perfusion was enhanced in 10 out of 13 patients who received the repeated examinations after the treatment, most of whom showed the improvement of clinical symptoms.Conclusions Perfusion MR imaging can assess hemodynamic alterations in LA, which could reflect the clinical symptoms. Moreover, the changes of blood perfusions can be used to evaluate and monitor the therapy effect of LA.

Objective To investigate the safety and effectiveness of different intravenous anesthesia methods for pediatric ERCP . Methods Data of 45 children undergoing ERCP at the Affiliated Hangzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from August 2013 to July 2016, including intravenous anesthesia,the procedure of ERCP, adverse reactions and the waking time were retrospectively studied. Results A total of 45 patients in two groups under intravenous anesthesia successfully underwent ERCP . Seventeen patients ( 37. 8%) whose body weights were over 20 kg and the duration of surgery was predicted less than 30 minutes received deep sedation without airway intubation. Twenty?eight patients ( 62. 2%) with an initial weight of less than 20 kg and the duration of surgery was predicted more than 30 minutes received general anesthesia with airway intubation. In patients with deep sedation, the mean time of waking was 7. 2±6. 3 minutes, body movement reaction occurred in 1 case ( 5. 9%) and with transient decreasing of pulse blood oxygen ( beyond 95%) occurred in 2 cases ( 11. 8%) . In patients receiving endotracheal anesthesia with intubation, the mean waking time was 10. 5±8. 7 minutes without adverse reactions associated with anesthesia. Conclusion Both deep sedation and general anesthesia with airway intubation are safe for pediatric ERCP. However, general anesthesia with airway intubation is an ideal method ensuring the airway safety and oxygen supply for children less than 20 kg undergoing first?time ERCP or the duration of surgery lasting over 30 minutes.

With the development of clinical related disciplines, the update and establishment of relevant standards/guidelines at home and abroad, GBZ 185-2006 Diagnostic Criteria for Occupational Medicamentose-like Dermatitis due to Trichloroethylene (hereinafter referred to as “GBZ 185-2006”) was unable to meet clinical needs. Therefore, the GBZ 185-2006 was revised based on the principles of evidence-based medicine, in accordance with relevant laws/regulations and relevant standards/guidelines in combination with review of research data on occupational medicamentose-like dermatitis due to trichloroethylene (OMDT) home and abroad, and the development of clinical practice and clinical related disciplines. The main modifications include: adding terms and definitions of OMDT, modifying the description of clinical manifestations of the diagnostic principles, adjusting the description of latency, deleting the diagnostic requirement of the incidence probability, adding the specific allergen patch test as the etiological diagnostic index, standardizing the application scope, operating procedure and precautions of the specific allergen patch test. In addition, the relevant content of “Basic Characteristics and Clinical Types of Skin Damage of Medicamentose-like Dermatitis due to Trichloroethylene” in Appendix A is improved, the treatment principles are revised, and the content of new progress in treatment, artificial liver application, are added. The revised GBZ 185-2024 Diagnostic Standard for Occupational Medicamentose-like Dermatitis due to Trichloroethylene is more scientific and practical, and can provide technical basis for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of OMDT in medical and health institutions.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of cerebral palsy(CP)in children aged 1-6 years in China,including the incidence,prevalence,type of CP,etiology,prevention and rehabilitation status. Methods The survey was carried out by standard questionnaires,multi-center collaboration,stratified-cluster ran-dom sampling method.The surveyed adopted the following principles:streets in the city and villages in the rural areas, and the number of the urban and rural children was the same,and the proportion of children in each age group was balanced.The investigation areas included provinces and autonomous regions,including Heilongjiang,Beijing,Henan, Shandong,Shanxi,Shaanxi,Anhui,Hunan,Guangxi,Guangdong,Chongqing and Qinghai,and 323 858 children were in-vestigated.Results The incidence of CP was 2.48‰(155/62 591 cases),and the prevalence was 2.46‰(797/323 858 cases)(1-6 years old).The prevalence varied in different regions,in which the highest prevalence was 5. 40‰(54/9 998 cases)in Qinghai province,and the lowest prevalence was 1.04‰(47/45 133 cases)in Shandong province.The prevalence of the males(2.64‰,461/174 391 cases)was higher than that of the females(2.25‰, 336/149 467 cases),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The types of CP were spastic type (58.85%,469/797 cases),mixed type(13.17%,105/797 cases),dyskinetic(9.79%,78/797 cases),hypotonic (8.28%,66/797 cases),ataxia(6.25%,52/797 cases)and rigid(3.39%,27/797 cases)respectively in 797 CP children.The first three risk factors for CP were long -term exposure to harmful physical factors during pregnancy, whether there were birth defects among the three generations of relatives of the children,such as children's peers, parents or grandparents,whether there were birth defects among the children's peers,parents or grandparents,and neonatal jaundice or persistent jaundice.Among 797 CP children,79.67% of the children with CP were timely detected and treated in the local hospitals,while the other 19.93% of them were not timely treated.The places which could give them timely detection and early diagnosis and treatment were general hospitals(42.97%),Maternity and Infant Hospitals (27.03%)and Children's Hospitals(20.31%). The main rehabilitation methods for 797 children with CP were 34.58% in the hospitals or rehabilitation centers,31.61% in the communities(including at home),33.80% mainly in the medical institution,and in the communities they could also receive partially rehabilitation services. Conclusions The prevalence of CP in China is coincident with international levels.The prevalence rate of CP in males is higher than that in females.The types of CP distribution are accorded with international distribution characteristics.There were still some children with CP who could not receive timely detection and treatment.Rehabilitation at the medical institutions is the chief way and proper rehabilitation guidance should be carried out in the communities.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the levels of cortisol and inflammatory factors and their influencing factors in patients with occupational noise-induced hearing loss(ONID). METHODS: A total of 106 ONID patients were selected as the ONID group, and 50 healthy participants without noise exposure were selected as the control group by judge sampling method. The levels of salivary cortisol in the two groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The serum levels of cortisol, tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6) and C-reactive protein(CRP) in the peripheral blood were detected by electrochemiluminescence assay. Tinnitus Handicap Inventory was used to evaluate the disability levels of tinnitus in ONID patients. RESULTS: The level of salivary cortisol in the morning and in the nighttime, and cortisol, TNF-α, IL-6 in the serum were higher in the ONID group compared with that in the control group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the serum level of CRP between these two groups(P>0.05). Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the level of cortisol in the saliva and in the serum was not correlated with TNF-α and IL-6(P>0.05). Analysis of multiple linear regression showed that the levels of serum cortisol and salivary cortisol in the morning in the ONID patients were positively correlated with noise exposure level(P<0.05). The level of TNF-α in the serum was positively correlated with tinnitus score(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Hyperactivity of hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis and inflammation activation may exist in patients with ONID. The cortisol can be used as a biomarker for the effect of noise-stress.
