Objective To compare the influence of two different managements of relief incision (exposed relaxation therapy or absorbable hemostatic gauze) in infants' palatoplasty. Methods A total of 118 infants with cleft palate between 5- to 8-month-old for the study were randomly divided into two groups: group A was exposed therapy group, and in group B both sides of relief incision were placed absorbable hemostatic gauze. The wound bleeding, body temperature, diet and incidence of fistula were observed and analyzed after operation. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in postoperative temperature, diet and wound healing (P>0. 05). The postoperative wound bleeding was statistically significant differences between the two groups (P<0. 05). Conclusions Either exposed therapy or placed absorbable hemostatic gauze in relief incision, has minimal systemic and local reactions in the postoperative infant. The advantages of exposed treatment are economic and simple, and less irritant to the wound.

The rapid recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal motility is the key factor to accelerate the recovery of patients. The recovery of gastrointestinal motility is often affected by various factors, such as anesthesia and operation. The present study shows that the inhibition of stress response caused by acute pain can improve the recovery of gastrointestinal motility. Howeve, the effects of perioperative intravenous analgesics on gastrointestinal motility are not consistent. So we reviewed the effects of different intravenous analgesics on gastrointestinal motility.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the antagonistic effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza on cyclosporine A (CsA)-induced chronic nephrotoxicity. METHODS: 54 patients underwent renal transplantation were divided into 3 groups according to dosage of salvia miltiorrhiza: CsA+high-dose of salvia miltiorrhiza group, CsA+loe-dose of salvia miltiorrhiza group (trial group) and CsA control group (control group). Plasma concentration of CsA, serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (Bun), 24 h urines and 24 h urinary protein were recorded. The parameters of morphology and hemodynamics were compared among 3 groups. The differences of index among 3 groups were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: The level of Scr, Bun and 24 h urinary protein in CsA+high-dose of salvia miltiorrhiza group were decreased significantly while 24 h urines was increased, compared with other 2 groups. There was significant difference among 3 groups (P0.05). The intrarenal blood flow and renal arterial resistance index were increased significantly in CsA+high-dose of salvia miltiorrhiza group. CONCLUSION: High-dose of salvia miltiorrhiza combined with CsA can reduce the CsA-induced nephrotoxicity perfently.

Objective To investigate the synergistic effect of retinol and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) on maintaining pluripotency of murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Methods The mESCs were randomly divided into two groups, and they were all cultured with the same LIF concentration (100U/ml). Retinol was added into mESCs medium in experimental group, and retinol was not added in control group. 14 days after culturing, the changes in cell morphology were observed under an inverted microscope with alkaline phosphatase staining. The mRNA expression of Oct4 and Nanog was analyzed by RT-PCR, and the proteins for Oct4 and Nanog were determined by Western-blot for the assessment of the pluripotency of mESCs. Results 14 days after culturing, 78% of mESCs in the experimental group formed good cell colonies with good stereoscopic appearance, and they showed strong alkaline phosphatase (AKP) staining. While in the control group, only 35% of mESCs were in undifferentiated mode, and the cells were weakly positive with AKP staining. The quantity of undifferentiated mESCs in experimental group (7.02?0.34) was higher than that in control group (4.28?0.37, P

Objective To investigate the clinical-pathological feature of careinoma showing thymus-like dif- ferentiation(CASTLE) of the thyroid. Methods The clinical data, histopathologie changes and immunohistoche- mical findings were studied in 1 case of carcinoma showing thymus-like differentiation of the thyroid with review of the related literature. Results The age of the patient was 38 years old. The clinical manifestation displayed a pain- less mass in the thyroid. On ultrasound the tumor appeared hypoechoic. Histologically the tumor cells were arranged in nests and islands accompanied by desmoplasfie strorna. The architecture thus showed a superficial resemblance to the lobulation seen in thymic carcinomas. The tumor was characterized by squamoid or syheytial-appearing cells with lightly eosinophilic cytoplasm. Nuciec were oval, pale to versicular, and had small distinct nudeoli. Immunohistoche- mically the tumor cells were positive for CK, CD5, CD117 but neyative for TG, Calcitonin, SYN, NSE, TTF- 1, EBV. Conclusion CASTLE is a very rate a carcinoma thyroid with architectural resemblance to thymic epithelial tumors. The immunophenolype of CASTLE is identical with that of thymie carcinoma.

Objective In order to investigate the changes of glycogen and lactate in cortex after exercise-induced central system fatigue. Methods Central fatigue model was established according to Bedford weight/maximal oxygen uptake equation. The rats were divided into three groups: control group (C), sedentary-exhausted group (SE), and overtraining group (O). Results After 1 week exercise, compared with control group, the weight of rats in SE and O group increased slowly. BUN of SE and O group increased significantly to 4.78?1.99 mmol/L and 8.48 ?0.92 mmol/L respectively,but Hb showed no changes. Compared with C group, both DA and DA/5-HT of O group decreased dynamical which were 309.04?63.68 ng/ml?g and 0.42?0.25 respectively. The latency of SEP in O group distinctly delayed, P1: 2.98?0.55ms, N1: 4.23?0.35ms, P2: 5.28?0.60ms. Regarding to 5-HT, no significant difference was found among all groups. Cortex lactate concentration of O (1.46mg/100g )and SE(1.12 mg/100g) group were significantly higher than control group(0.92 mg/100g). There was a tendency of glycogen decrease but had no significant difference among all groups. Conclusion The results suggested that lactate and glycogen might have close relationship with central fatigue and were the possible reasons to cause central fatigue.

Objective To investigate the surgical correction of alar deformity and repairing function of unilateral cleft lip in infant. Methods Millards procedure was used to incise skin, muscle and mucosa, correct the nasal deformity through lip. At the normal side, ophthalmic scissors was applied to incise lips muscle and skin, and reach the deep level of the base of nasal pillor, cut the abnormal attachment between the orbicular muscle of mouth and anterior nasal spina, and sharp dissect cartilage and skin in nasal wing through deep level of nasal pillor. At the cleft side, the abnormal muscle branch was cut that attached at the down side of the base of nose and pyriform aperture, the tissue between nasal base and lip, maxilla relaxed, and the cartilage and skin in the nasal wing at the same side dissected. The deform cartilage was repairied as the same of normal side. After the rehabilitation of cartilage of nasal wing, the soft tissue at deep level was moved to normal location, but the deep level structure of nasal wing cartilage, nasal septum cartilage and nasal bone did not dissected. After the dissection of orbicular muscle of mouth, the muscle in nose and lip must be relaxed in illous side. The orbicular muscle of mouth was sewed under the condition of tensionless. The repairing of orbicular muscle of mouth will improve the balance of muscular strength around the nose. Thus, the deviation of nasal pillor was corrected and the base of nose repaired. Results Eighty cases of infant with unilateral cleft lip at the age of 3 months ～12 months, in which 11 cases were Ⅰ?,16 Ⅱ, and 3 Ⅲ?. Eighty cases were low grade alar deformity, and 13 middle grade deformity. After operation, 52 cases were better, 17 cases were good, and 11 cases were worse. The postoperational result was good. Conclusion While performing the cleft lip operation or Millard operation, the authors can correct the nasal deformity through lip. So, it is recommended that cleft lip and the alar deformity can be repaired at the same time.
