Results The total occurrence rate of anti-A? antibody was 27.8%. There was no significant difference of TAPIR positive rate in each age group. They had the similar immunospecialties to middle-aged and elderly healthy controls. Conclusion Plasma anti-A? antibody can be occured before amyloid deposits and senile plaques in brain.

Objective To compare the application value and the clinical curative effect of longitudinal incision and tarsal sinus minimal-ly invasive approach in treatment of patients with intra-articular calcaneal fractures. Methods A retrospective statistical analysis was made by collecting and comparing the clinical data of 67 patients with intra-articular calcaneal fractures from March 2008 to March 2012,and they were divided into the longitudinal incision minimally invasive approach group ( ZW group,36 patients,37 feet) and the tarsal sinus minimally invasive approach group ( FW group,31 patients,33 feet) . The Bohler angle, Gissane angle before and after operation,complications healing time,and AOFAS scores were compared. Results The healing time,Bohler angle,Gissane angle of ZW group and other indicators were better than those of the FW group,but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0. 05). The infection of incision and compli-cations in ZW group was obviously less than those of the FW group (P<0. 05). According to the AOFAS scoring system,ZW group scored 82. 49 points while FW group scored 86. 53 points,which indicated no statistical significance (P>0. 05). Conclusion The two kinds of treatments are of no obvious difference,but the longitudinal small incision minimally invasive approach could receive better effect in terms of soft tissue damage,healing time,and postoperative complications.

Objective To explore the value of left parasternal anterior mediastinaotomy (Chamberlain procedure) in the diagnosis of mediastinal lymph node enlargement with unknown causes and anterior mediastinal space-taking lesions. Methods By using the Chamberlain procedure, biopsy was performed in 32 cases of enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes with unknown causes or mediastinal space-taking lesions, which were found by CT scans. Results All of the 32 cases were pathologically diagnosed, with a diagnostic accuracy of 100%. Three patients with pericardial effusion received concurrent pericardial fenestration and then their symptoms relieved. Four patients underwent concurrent lung biopsy. The operating time was (48?15) min, the blood lose was ( 40.6?23.5) ml, and the postoperative hospital stay (3.6?1.4) days. No deaths or postoperative complications occurred. Conclusions Chamberlain procedure is a safe and valuable method in the diagnosis of mediastinal space-taking lesions with unknown causes or enlargement of the fifth and sixth groups of mediastinal lymph nodes, which routine mediastinoscope cannot reach. Some other simple therapies, such as lung biopsy or pericardial fenestration, can also be employed at the same time.

Purpose　To investigate whether thoracotomy can induce lung injury in the operative side and the protection by ambroxol in this procedure.　Methods　24 patients with esophageal carcinoma who were performed esophagectomy with anastomosis over the arcus aortae were randomized into 2 groups:an ambroxol group (ambroxol 1 g iv gtt qd×3,preoperatively) and a controlled group without any respiratory medication.General anesthesia by tracheo-cannula combined with continuous epidual anesthesia were used in all the patients.Bilateral broncho-alveolar lavage(BAL) was carried out after intubation preoperatively and before removal of the cannula postoperatively.Total Phospholipid(TPL),Saturated Phosphaytidylcholine(SatPC) and Total protein(TP) in the BALF were measured.The ratio of SatPC/TPL and SatPC/TP represented the activity of PS.　Results　In the controlled group,SatPC/TPL and SatPC/TP of the left lung(operation side) showed significant difference(P<0.05),compared with the right side(non-operation side).In the ambroxol group,no significant difference of such ratio was showed.　Conclusions　Thoracotomy can induce lung injury and bring out the decrease of PS and increase of protein exudation in the operative side.Large dose of ambroxol can promote in synthesize and secretion of PS and protect those changes.

Objective To analyze the safety, feasibility and operative technique details of non-grasping en bloc mediastinal lymph nodes dissection technique in uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS) for lung cancer.Methods From April, 2014 to March, 2015,46 patients with lung cancer received non-grasping en bloc mediastinal lymph nodes dissection after uniportal VATS lobectomy.Clinical data of the cases were analyzed retrospectively.There were 19 males and 27 females.The age was(57.2 ± 9.0) (38-73) years.The first 6 cases were performed in the lateral decubitus position while the later 40 cases were all performed in the semiprone position.Results All cases accepted uniportal VATS non-grasping en bloc mediastinal lymph nodes dissection successfully.Arm fatigue of surgeon and assistant was obviously relieved when the patient was placed in the semiprone position.The thoracic drainage time was(3.2 ± 2.1) (1-12)days and the postoperative length of hospital-stay was(6.0 ± 4.5) (2-27) days.The number of dissected mediastinal lymph nodes stations was (4.3 ± 0.8) (3-6)and the number of dissected mediastinal lymph nodes was (11.8 ± 4.9) (4-30).There were 42 cases with stage No , lease wit stage N1, and 3 cases with stage N2 in pathological examination.Five patients developed minor postoperative complications.No perioperative death occurred.Conclusion Uniportal VATS non-grasping en bloc mediastinal lymph nodes dissection for lung cancer was safe and feasible, which could decrease the interference of the instruments and help to keep the surgical field clear.Non-grasping en bloc mediastinal lymph nodes dissection would be performed more smoothly in the semiprone position with less damage to lung and better ergonomics.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of rehabilitation training on the expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) around the cerebral infarcted area of rats.Methods60 SD rats were randomly divided into rehabilitation group and immobilization group 24 hours after cerebral infarction.The rehabilitation group were given water maze training,rotating bar and rolling cage exercises everyday while the immobilization group were fixed in cages. Histochemistry was used to detect the BDNF expression around the cerebral infarcted area at the 1st,3rd,7th,10th and 14th day after infarction respectively.ResultsAt 1st day after the infarction, the expression of BDNF increased obviously around the infarcted area in both group. More BDNF positive neurons were found in the rehabilitation group than that in the immobilization group at 3rd day (P<0.01). BDNF positive astrocytes showed obvious increasing in both group. BDNF positive neurons decreased with time going, and the color became lighter at the same time .At the 7th day after infarction, there were only a few positive neurons, and seldom obvious positive neurons could be seen around the infarcted area at 10th and 14th day. Great deal of BDNF positive astrocytes were found at 3rd,7th,10th and 14th day, and the rehabilitation group showed more expression than that of the immobilization group(P<0.01).ConclusionsThe rehabilitation training may increase the expression of BDNF which might take an active part in the recovery of the central nervous system injury and the rebuilding of its function.

The development of informatization and modernization of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been restricted to some degree due to the lack of sufficient modern scientific evidence to support TCM theory. Rapid development of computer technology, information and imaging technology, which can be used to explore TCM theory and mechanism, may bring hope to solve this problem. In recent years, functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) has been widely used to study TCM theory and mechanism. However, shortage of interdisciplinary talents those who possess both medical and engineering knowledge has restricted the development of fMRI research in the field of Chinese medicine. With the development of the discipline of TCM information science in TCM colleges and universities, students majoring in TCM information science will be the main source of researchers engaging in TCM fMRI researches. The flourishing development of TCM fMRI researches will cultivate a large number of talents adapting in TCM information science who will promote the construction of TCM information science.

Objective To analyze safety,efficacy and resection methods of video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS) for the treatment of intralobar pulmonary sequestration(IPS).Methods Data of 17 patients who were diagnosed as IPS and received VATS from December 2006 to September 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were 7 males and 10 females with the mean age of 40.3 (14-61) years.Diagnosis was confirmed in 9 patients by enhanced CT and unconfirmed in 8 patients.Three ports were used for surgery.After the aberrant artery was confirmed,liner stapler was used in 16 patients to cut it and Hem-o-lok was used in 1 patient because the aberrant artery was about 3 mm in diameter and long enough.If the diameter of the aberrant artery was longer than 10 mm,a stapling device without knife was used to occlude it centrally and a second stapling device was used to cut it peripherally.Wedge resection or lobectomy was performed due to the different conditions.When the lesion was small with linited range in CT image and the lesion was easily distinguished from normal lung tissue during operation,wedge resection was preferred.Results Seventeen patients underwent VATS successfully without any conversion to thoracotomy or any serious complications.Five patients were planned to receive wedge resection and one was converted to lobectomy.Another 12 patients were planned to receive lobectomy and all succeeded.The mean operating time was 128 (80-170)min.The mean blood loss was 80 (5-200) ml.The mean days of chest tube maintained were 4.0 (2-6) days.The mean postoperative hospitalization days were 7.6 (4-11) days.All patients were diagnosed as IPS according to operating in-sight and postoperative pathology.There was no patient suffering from chronic cough,bloody sputum or recurrent pneumonia during the follow-up.Conclusion VATS for the treatment of IPS is safe and feasible.If conditions permit,wedge resection or segmentectomy may be preferred.
