Objective To study the feasibility of the cochlear implantation and effects in the treatment of large vestibular aqueduct syndrome.Methods A total of 37 patients(74 ears)diagnosed with large vestibular aque-duct syndrome received cochlear implants since 2002 at the Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University.We made a retro-spectively analysis of these 37 patients(37 ears).While 37 patients(37 ears)with normal cochlear structures were considered as the control group.After activation,their speech perception at pre-operation and at 3,6,9,12 months affer the operation were evaluated.Their CAP and SIR scores were collected through questionnaires at each assess-ment interva1 .Results In LVAS group,5 patients(5 ears)had serious gusher,while no gusher was abserved in the control group.The two groups of the electrodes were all inserted in the cochlea.No serious complications occurred after implantation in the two groups.The impedance of the electrodes,the T level,C level and the hearing thresholds were similar with the normal group with cochlear implantations.The results had no significant differences when compared with the normal cochlear group (P>0.05).The speech perception ability,CAP and SIR scores were im-proved along with the increase time of implant use.At the same recovery time,the results had no significant differ-ence in the two groups(P>0.05).At the same group,the results between pre-operation and 3,6,9,12 months post-operation after device activation had significant differences (P<0.05).Conclusion Cochlear implants could be performed safely in patients with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome.The primary outcomes for patients with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome were similar to those with normal cochlear structure following the cochlear im-plantation.

Immune suppression is a very important mechanism in alleviating immunologic injury,and recent study has showed that CD4~(+)CD25~(+) regulatory T cell is an important component of the immune suppression system.This T cell subset has an obvious immune-suppressing effect and produces its effect not by secreting cytokine but contacting cell directly.In this review,we describe the biological characteristics of CD4~(+)CD25~(+) regulatory T cell and its functions in infection immunity.

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of ultrasound-guided catheter drainage and vacuum-assisted Mammotome system in the treatment of lactational breast abscess. Methods The clinical data of 46 patients with lactational breast abscesses were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were divided into control group (28 patients) and treatment group (18 patients). Homemade irrigation and drainage tube was used in control group,and vacuum-assisted Mammotome system was used in treatment group. The curative effect of 2 groups was compared. Results All patients were cured. The mean healing time in treatment group was (9.5 ± 1.3) d,in control group was (12.5 ± 2.2) d, and there was significant difference (P < 0.01). The rate of breast-feeding in control group was 57.1% (16/28), in treatment group was 13/18,and there was no significant difference (χ2=1.069, P>0.05). All patients recovered well without recurrence. Conclusions Ultrasound-guided catheter drainage should be employed as first line treatment of breast abscess with diameter greater than the 3 cm. If patient′s economic conditions are good and have high requirement on the beauty outcome, vacuum-assisted Mammotome system can be applied as treatment option.

Objective To investigate the effect of Shenfuhuang injection (SFH Injection) on function of organs and mortality of septic rats, using a sepsis mode by cecal ligation puncture(CLP). Methods 140 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal control group, sham operation group, CLP group (being further divided into 2, 8, 24, 48 h subgroups), SFH injection treatment group (being further divided into 2, 8, 24, 48 h subgroups, drug were inraveous injected just after operation and per 12 h). The mortality of animals and altering organ’s function were observed within 7 days. Results Compared to CLP model, mortality of Septic rats in SFH injection group was significant lower, and the treatment prolonged survival duration. SFH Injection group owned lower numerical values of ALT, AST, BUN and Cr in serum. Conclusion SFH Injection can obviously decline the mortality of septic rats and play an important role in protecting organ function.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Shenfuhuang injection (SFH) on tissue and plasma TNF-? level and multiple organ dysfunction in septic rats. Method Wistar rats were subjected to sepsis by ceral ligation and puncture, then they were randomly divided into four groups, normal control, sham operation grop, septic group, SFH group. Animals were sacrificed at 2, 8, 24, 48 h. TNF-? level of lung, liver and plasma were measured. DAO activity was determined. Result TNF-? level of liver, lung and plasma were markedly increased at 2～8 h post-CLP compared with sham operation group. In SFH group, TNF-? level decreased in different degrees. DAO activity was much lower in SFH group than in CLP group at 2, 8 h. Conclusion Early applying of SFH could markedly inhibit TNF-? level of vital organs and injury of intestine, thereby preventing the development of excessive inflammation response and subsequent multiple organ dysfunction syndrome associated with CLP-induced sepsis.

Objective To develop a target-controlled infusion (TCI) system incorporating population pharmacokinetics of propofol for children and evaluate its accuracy. Methods The TCI system was composed of a Samsung Q20 laptop computer, Graseby 3500 infusion pump, Stanpump software (Version 1.0 designed by Shafer et al. Stanford) and pharmacokinetic parameter set for propofol in children reported by Lian et al. Twenty-four ASA Ⅰ children undergoing elective orthopedic or urological surgery under general anesthesia were divided into 2 age groups: group A 3-5 yrs ( n = 12) and group B 5-10 yrs (n = 12). Radial artery and internal jugular vein were cannulated. The pediatric patients were sedated with ketamine 4 mg?kg-1 IM (uncooperative patients) or 2 mg? kg-1 Ⅳ( cooperative patients) . Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 3 ?g?kg-1, propofol by TCI and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg-1. Target plasma concentration of propofol was set at 3 ?g?ml-1. TCI of propofol was maintained for 60 min. Arterial blood samples were taken at 1, 3, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 min after TCI was started and at 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 30 min after termination of TCI for determination of blood propofol concentration by HPLC. The median performance error ( MDPE) , MDPE without first five minutes ( MDPE1) , median absolute performance error ( MDAPE), wobble and divergence were calculated. Results During the first 40 minutes of TCI there was a remarkable difference between the measured plasma propofol concentration ( Cm) and the target plasma concentration (Cp). The difference was narrowing gradually until the 50 min of TCI. After the termination of TCI the Cm was significantly lower than Cp. The MDPE was 27% in group A and 26% in group B; MDPE1 was 7% (A) and 12% (B) and MDAPE 27% (A) and 26% (B) during TCI. The wobble was 23 % (A) and 24% (B) and the divergence - 0.75%?h-1 (A) and -0.80%?h-1 respectively. Conclusion The bias and divergence of our TCI system for propofol are small and the accuracy is high and a stable plasma concentration of propofol can be maintained in children.

Objective To investigate the relationship of triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein (TG/HDL C) ratio with coronary heart disease (CHD) and its severity.Methods 158 patients with CHD were enrolled in this study.Patients were divided into 4 groups according to the selective coronary arteriography:the control group,single-vessel CHD group,double-vessel CHD group,multiple-vessel CHD group.The relationship between multiple risk factors and CHD was analyzed by stepwise multiple regression.The severity of coronary artery stenosis was analyzed by Gensini scoring system.Results TG/HDL-C ratio was elevated in patients with coronary artery stenosis as compared with the control group [(1.8±1.0) vs.(1.7±1.4),t=2.68,P＜0.05].TG/HDL-C ratio was elevated along with the severity of CHD.TG/HDL-C ratio was elevated in multiple-vessel C HD group as compared with the control group by ANOVA analysis (P＜0.05).Stepwise multiple regression showed that multiple-vessel CHD was positive related with total cholesterol (TC),LDL-C and TG/HDL-C ratio (β value:0.326,0.339,0.158,respectively,all P＜0.05).Conclusions TG/HDL C ratio is related with multiple vessel CHD,but it does not have more clinical significances than other indicators.
