Objective To evaluate the effects of various head and neck postures and phonation on oropharyngeal view(Mallampati score),and ex-plore the correlation with laryngoscopic view tested by the improved Cormach-Lehane score(MCLS). Methods Following the local ethics commit-tee approval and patients′informed consent to anesthesia,124 patients were enrolled for this study. Prior to anesthesia,these patients were placed in supine position with various head and neck positions for oropharyngeal structures visualization and evaluation,including two head positions(neu-tral and full extension),two tongue positions(in and out),and with and without phonation,according to the modified Mallampati test score(MMT). Following induction,laryngoscopic view scores according to MCLS were recorded,then the sensitivity,specificity,positive and negative predictive value and accuracy of the various MMT scores were calculated. Correlation coefficient(r)of MMT scores with MCLS were also studied. Results Mallampati score was decreased in all the postures of head full extension,tongue outside and phonation,which makes oropharyngeal structures to be better visualized. There is no correlation between MMT scores and MCLS. The sensitivity,specificity,positive and negative predictive value and accu-racy of the various MMT scores is most satisfied in the posture of head full extension,tongue outside and phonation. Conclusion During airway as-sessment in supine position,the best posture is head full extension,tongue outside and phonation.

Objective To investigate the position competency of residents in the first year and to search for the standardizing training which aims at advancing position competencies. Method Twenty residents of the first year and 40 of superior doctors were taken as research targets. Question-naires including 8 aspects (basic ability, occupational spirit, communication skills, medical knowl-edge, team work, public health, information and management, and academic research) were con-ducted and were scored namelessly. The scores of items in one kind of ability were summed up to serve as the total score of this ability. The mean score of one kind of ability and the mean score of 8 kinds of abilities of residents and superior doctors was calculated. SPSS 17.0 was adopted to make statistical analysis. t-test was adopted to test the difference between the score from residents and superior doctors with P<0.05 representing statistics significance. Results The scores of 8 kinds of abilities were much lower than full scores. The scores of basic ability, occupational spirit, and team work from residents (78.5, 87.4, 41.9) were higher than those from superior doctors (72.6, 80.5, 39.5), with statistical significances (P=0.020, 0.013, 0.045). Conclusions Residents are lack of position competency and awareness, which demonstrates the gap between the training model and the demand of work. It is sug-gested that we should design the training system and evaluation methods based on doctors' compe-tences, add training for comprehensive ability and evaluate abilities of all aspects. An excellent hu-manity education should be built and quality cultivation should be taken attention to. Objective and measurable indices should be developed to increase residents' knowledge.

This study examined the impact of 935MHz phone-simulating electromagnetic radiation on embryo implantation of pregnant mice. Each 7-week-old Kunming (KM) female white mouse was set up with a KM male mouse in a single cage for mating overnight after induction of ovulation. In the first three days of pregnancy, the pregnant mice was exposed to electromagnetic radiation at low-intensity (150 μW/cm(2), ranging from 130 to 200 μW/cm(2), for 2- or 4-h exposure every day), mid-intensity (570 μW/cm(2), ranging from 400 to 700 μW/cm(2), for 2- or 4-h exposure every day) or high-intensity (1400 μW/cm(2), ranging from 1200 to 1500 μW/cm(2), for 2- or 4-h exposure every day), respectively. On the day 4 after gestation (known as the window of murine embryo implantation), the endometrium was collected and the suspension of endometrial glandular cells was made. Laser scanning microscopy was employed to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential and intracellular calcium ion concentration. In high-intensity, 2- and 4-h groups, mitochondrial membrane potential of endometrial glandular cells was significantly lower than that in the normal control group (P<0.05). The calcium ion concentration was increased in low-intensity 2-h group but decreased in high-intensity 4-h group as compared with the normal control group (P<0.05). However, no significant difference was found in mitochondrial membrane potential of endometrial glandular cells between low- or mid-intensity groups and the normal control group, indicating stronger intensity of the electromagnetic radiation and longer length of the radiation are required to inflict a remarkable functional and structural damage to mitochondrial membrane. Our data demonstrated that electromagnetic radiation with a 935-MHz phone for 4 h conspicuously decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and lowered the calcium ion concentration of endometrial glandular cells. It is suggested that high-intensity electromagnetic radiation is very likely to induce the death of embryonic cells and decrease the chance of their implantation, thereby posing a high risk to pregnancy.
