Biliary atresia (BA) is the most common cause of persistent jaundice in infant,it can rapidly advance to biliary cirrhosis and death.Surgical treatment in time can decrease mortality,so it is essential to be differentiated from other diseases as early as possible.Main diagnosis methods of BA include clinical feature of patients,liver biopsy,and high-frequen cy ultrasonography,MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP),hepatobiliary scintigraphy.High-frequency ultrasonography is superior to other methods with high diagnostic specificity and sensitivity.The progresses of ultrasonography in diagnosis of BA were reviewed in this article.

Objective To explore the risk factors for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in the elderly,in order to provide the basis for clinical prevention and treatment.Methods 168 elderly patients with CAP (observation group) and 100 elderly patients without CAP (control group) were chosen from our hospital from Jan.2013 to Dec.2014.The clinical data were investigated,and the risk factors for CAP were analyzed.Results Single factor analysis showed that there were significant differences between the two groupsin serum protein level,pets-raising,smoking,dust exposure,bronchial disease,renal dysfunction and diabetes mellitus (all P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum protein level,pets-raising,smoking,bronchial disease and diabetes were the independent risk factors for CAP in the elderly (OR=2.793,2.578,3.017,3.168 and 2.643,all P＜0.05).Conclusions The community-acquired pneumonia is related with many risk factors in the elderly.The clinical corresponding prevention and treatment for the risk factors should be developed,which have an important significance in the early diagnosis,early treatment and prognostic improvement in community-acquired pneumonia.

0.05).Conclusion There may be no significant difference in sensory block,motor block and prevalence of adverse effects between injection rates of 0.27 mL/s and 0.04 mL/s in spinal anesthesia with 20 mg isobaric ropivacaine.

Spermatogenesis is a complex developmental process in which a diploid progenitor germ cell transforms into highly specialized spermatozoa. During spermatogenesis, membrane remodeling takes place, and cell membrane permeability and liquidity undergo phase-specific changes, which are all associated with the alteration of membrane lipids. Lipids are important components of the germ cell membrane, whose volume and ratio fluctuate in different phases of spermatogenesis. Abnormal lipid metabolism can cause spermatogenic dysfunction and consequently male infertility. Germ cell membrane lipids are mainly composed of cholesterol, phospholipids and glycolipids, which play critical roles in cell adhesion and signal transduction during spermatogenesis. An insight into the correlation of membrane lipids with spermatogenesis helps us to better understand the mechanisms of spermatogenesis and provide new approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility.

Objective To investigate the effect of meridian massage on the growth and development of premature infants.Methods 60 preterm infants were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 30 cases in each group,the control group adopted modified domestic simple meridian massage method,and the observation group increase meridian massage based on the control group,2 times a day and 15 minutes one time.Body weight,length,intake of milk,sleep time,time to regain birth weight,and meconium drained time were eomparel between two groups.Results The observation group was significantly better than the control group in body weight,length,intake of milk,sleep time,time to regain birth weight,and meconium drained time.Conclusions Meridian massage based on the domestic simple touch method plays a significant role in promoting the growth and development of premature infants.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of pituitrin combined with phentolamine versus pitui-trin alone in the treatment of bronchiectasis hemoptysis(BH),and provide evidence-based reference for the clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,Cochrane Library,EMBase,CJFD,Wanfang and VIP database,the randomized controlled trails(RCT)about pituitrin combined with phentolamine(test group)versus pituitrin alone(control group)in the treatment of BH were collected,and afterdata extract and quality evaluation ,Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.2.3 statistics soft-ware. RESULTS:A total of 43 RCTs were included,involving 3 094 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed the significant effi-cacy [RR=1.50,95%CI(1.38,1.62),P<0.001] and effective rate [RR=1.25,95%CI(1.20,1.30),P<0.001] in test group were sig-nificantly higher than control group,inefficacy [RR=0.29,95%CI(0.23,0.36),P<0.001], hemoptysis stopped or remission time [MD=-2.00,95%CI(-2.43,-1.57),P<0.001],incidence of headache [RR=0.36,95%CI(0.22,0.59),P<0.001],incidence of chest tightness [RR=0.41,95%CI(0.26,0.63),P<0.001],incidence of abdominal pain [RR=0.26,95%CI(0.16,0.43),P<0.001] and incidence of elevated blood pressure [RR=0.28,95%CI(0.14,0.56),P<0.001] in test group were significantly lower than control group,there were significant differences in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Pituitrin combined with phentolamine has better efficacy and safety than pituitrin alone in the treatment of BH. Due to the limit of methodological quality and sample size,it re-mains to be further verified with more rigorously designed and long-term follow-up of large-scale RCT.

Sulfogalactosylglycerolipid (SGG) is the main glycolipid in male mammalian germ cells, which is selectively and highly expressed in mammalian testes and helps form the lipid bilayer of cell membrane. In the process of spermatogenesis, SGG is involved in the meiosis of spermiocytes. Either deficiency or accumulation of SGG will lead to male infertility. SGG homeostasis in the testis is the premise of normal spermatogenesis. In the process of sperm-zona binding, SGG becomes a component of lipid raft and provides a platform for signal transduction. The SGG binding protein plays a role in sperm-egg recognition and membrane fusion. SGG has a great research value and application prospect in male reproduction.
