Objective To systematically review the efficacy of glutamine enriched nutrition support for patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods Database including PubMed,Embase,HighWire,Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,Wanfang Database,CJFD and CBM were searched with glutamine,severe acute pancreatitis,SAP,谷氨酰胺,重症急性胰腺炎.Literatures published before March 2014 were searched.Randomized controlled trials containing the comparison of conventional treatment and glutamine enriched nutrition support were enrolled in the study,and then the literatures were screened and the data were extracted by 2 independent reviewers.The quality of the literatures was assessed,and the data were analyzed using the RevMan 5.2 software.SAP was diagnosed according to The revised Atlanta classificantion for acute pancreatitis or guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of SAP which was composed by the pancreatic surgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association.The count data were analyzed using the relative risk (RR) and 95％ confidence interval (95％ CI),and the measurement data were analyzed using standard mean difference (SMD) and 95 ％ CI.The heterogeneity of the data was analyzed using the I2 test.Results Ten literatures including 433 cases were enrolled in the study,and all of them were prospective randomized controlled studies.There were 218 patients treated by conventional methods (control group) and 215 patients received glutamine enriched nutrition support (experimental group).Compared with the control group,glutamine enriched nutrition support could elevate the albumin level,decrease the C-reaction protein level and shorten the hospital stay in the experimental group (SMD=1.00,-0.93,-0.71,95％CI:0.50-1.50,-1.25--0.61,-1.10--0.32,P＜0.05),glutamine enriched nutrition support could decrease the morbidity and mortality (RR =0.56,0.34,95％ CI:0.41-0.77,0.15-0.76,P ＜ 0.05) without increasing the expenses (SMD =0.03,95％ CI:-0.88-0.95,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Glutamine enriched nutrition support is superior to conventional methods for the treatment of SAP.

Objectives:To clarify whether the bone mineral density (BMD) differed from normal and whether the mandibular BMD changed with age in young adults with moderate periodontitis. Methods:30 patients (20-35 years old) with moderate adult periodontitis and 30 individuals (20-35 years old) with normal periodontal condition as control group were included in present study. BMD of the mandible was measured using panoramic mandibular index(PMI) from panoramic radiographic film. Results:The sPMI and iPMI value were 0.275 0?0.034 and 0.527 3?0.096 (normal group), 0.223 3?0.024 and 0.367 3?0.069 (periodontitis patients) respectively.The PMI value of periodontitis patients was significantly decreased compared to that of normal group, and showed a significant correlation with age.Conclusions:Moderate periodontitis in young adults seem to be a local disorder associated with relatively low PMI in the jaws. Age-related decrease in mean PMI with increasing age in both normal and periodontitis patients is founded.Dental panoramic radiograph may serve as a simple tool in mandibular BMD defection.

Objective To observe neurobehavior and pathological changes of spinal cord injury (SCI) model in adult rats.Methods The Basso Beattie Bresnahan (BBB) scoring,histological and immunohistochemical changes after SCI were observed by means of self-designed spinal cord injurying device controlled by electrocircuit.Results From the 3rd day(1.0 ± 0.7),the BBB score of injured group began to increase (increased to 4.2 ± 1.3significantly at 7th day,and at the 28th day was 7.2 ± 1.3),and the hind limb could not support the body weight.Degeneration,necrosis of lots of neurons and glial cells proliferation could be observed obviously in spinal cord injured group.Immunohistochemical experiments showed that the grey level began to decrease 2nd hour after injury,went down the minimum at the 1st day,then 3rd day recovered,and at 28 th day was still lower than that of sham group.The glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunostaining positive cells area was gradually increased from 3rd day,reached the apex in the 14 th day,then decreased in the 28 th day.The changes of neuron specific enolase (NSE),neurofilament protein 200 (NF200) and GFAP had a close relationship with BBB score (r =0.856,0.856,0.795 respectively,P＜0.01).Conclusion The changes of NSE,NF200,GFAP after spinal cord injury reflect the characteristic of pathological change,which have a close relationship with functional recovery.

Objective To investigate the difference of morphology and blood flow of cavopulmonary anastomosis by MRI and that by ultrasonic cardiography (UCG) in patients with bidirectional Glenn shunt (BGS).Methods Phase-contrast MRI (PC-MRI) and contrast enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) were performed for superior vena cava ( SVC ) and inferior vena cava (IVC) in 22 patients with BGS on 3.0 T MR scanner.PC-MRI was used for measuring blood flow and CE-MRI for illustrating morphology.The width,peak flow velocity and gradient pressure of cavopulmonary anastomosis were calculated by using Report Card software.The similar data of UCG was collected.The parameters by MRI and that by UCG were compared statistically by t test and Pearson correlation.Results Based on the MRI data,the blood flow of SVC [ ( 1.002 ±0.208) L/min ] was significantly lower than that of IVC [ ( 1.794 ± 0.392 ) L/min ] ( t =- 15.148,P ＜0.01 ),while the regurgitation fraction of SVC [ (26.54 ± 12.82)％ ] was significantly higher than that ofIVC [ ( 17.44 ± 10.17)％ ] (t =11.060,P ＜0.01 ).The morphology displayed with MRI angiography couldnot be detected with UCG.The width of cavopulmonary anastomosis measured by MRI [ (12.46 ±3.43 ) mm ] was significantly higher than that of UCG[ ( 11.04 ± 2.63 ) mm] ( t =4.048,P ＜ 0.01 ),while the peak flow velocity of cavopulmonary anastomosis measured by MRI [ (47.77 ± 10.44) cm/s] was significantly lower than that of UCG [ (52.19 + 9.63) cm/s] ( t =- 2.237,P ＜ 0.05 ).No significant difference was found in gradient pressure of cavopulmonary anastomosis between the values by MRI [(0.95+0.42) mm Hg(1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa)] and that by UCG [(1.12+0.38)mm Hg] (t=2.010,P ＞ 0.05).The width,peak flow velocity and gradient pressure of cavopulmonary anastomosis by MRI were closely correlated with those by UCG (r =0.858,0.489,0.427,all P＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions A good correlation is found in the width,peak flow velocity,and gradient pressure of the cavopulmonary anastomosis obtained by 3.0 T MRI and UCG.MRI is more useful tool to display the width and abnormal morphology of cavopulmonary anastomosis than UCG.

Objective To investigate the application of MRI in evaluation of the traumatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) injury induced by type Ⅵ condylar fracture. MethodsMRI was performed in TMJs in 18 patients with type Ⅵ condylar fractures at days 3-14 post-injury and the MRI findings were analyzed. ResultsMRI findings of 18 patients with traumatic TMJ injury with 19 sides of type Ⅵ condylar fractures showed 15 sides of TMJ disk displacement,nine sides of capsule tear,16 sides of retrodiscal tissue tear (double-plate area) and 19 sides of joint effusion change. Conclusions MRI is very important in the diagnosis and evaluation of traumatic TMJ injury,since it can clearly display the TMJ injuries in type Ⅵ condylar fractures.Therefore,the clinical application of MRI is beneficial for selection of the therapeutic schedules.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of the real-time three-dimensional ultrasound in the diagnosis of the fistula-in-ano.Methods One hundred and eighteen fistula-in-ano patients were examined using conventional and three-dimensional ultrasound,the stereotaxis of interal opening and the shape of the fistula-in-ano were analyzed.Then the diagnosis results of ultrasound were compared with the surgery and pathology.Results In 1 1 8 patients,the accuracy of preoperative identifying internal opening by two-dimensional ultrasound was 85%,and 95% for three-dimensional ultrasound with statistically significant difference (χ2 =6.679,P <0.05).For complex anal fistula,the diagnostic accuracy rates of main fistula tract by three-dimensional ultrasound (100%,82/82 )was higher than that by two-dimensional ultrasound(95%,78/82),the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =4.100,P <0.05 ).In 82 cases of complex anal fistula,the diagnostic accuracy of branch fistula tract by two-dimensional ultrasound was 70%(57/82 ),the accuracy using three-dimensional ultrasound was 89% (73/82 ),there was statistically significance (χ2 =9.499,P < 0.05 ).Conclusions Three-dimensional ultrasound can accurately locate the interal opening of fistula-in-ano and determine the shape of fistula-in-ano,which provided the most intuitive information for clinical treatment and had high practical value.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of pneumatic circulation treatment on lower extremity swelling and blood flow velocity after hip replacement.Methods48 patients after hip replacement were divided into two groups: treatment group (n=24) and control group (n=24). The treatment group received pneumatic circulation treatment and continuous passive motion, while the control group only received continuous passive motion 2 d after operation, all patients wearing elastic stockings. Circumference of the affected leg was measured and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was assessed, and Doppler ultrasonography was to check the blood flow velocity of femoral and deep veins in lower limb before, 3 d and 7 d after rehabilitation.ResultsThere was no difference in circumference, VAS, and the lower limb blood flow velocity between the two groups before operation (P>0.05). There was significant difference in circumference and VAS 3 d after treatment (P<0.01), and a significant difference in circumference and blood flow velocity (P<0.01) but no difference in VAS (P>0.05) 7 d after treatment between the two groups.ConclusionPneumatic circulation treatment may facilitate to eliminate lower extremity swelling and prevent deep vein thrombosis after total hip replacement.
