Objective To study the relation between the levels of protein C(PC),protein S(PS),antithrombin Ⅲ(AT-Ⅲ)with cerebral infarction.Methods 126 patients with cerebral infarction were divided into the groups according to the age,onset time and infarction area and contemporaneous 30 individuals with healthy physical examination were selected as the control group.The levels of PC,PS and AT-Ⅲ were detected.The relation between the change of these indicator levels with the age,onset time and infarction area was analyzed Results The levels of AT-Ⅲ,PC and PS in the acute stage youth group were lower than those in the acute stage middle age and elderly group with statistical differences between them (P <0.05).The level of the AT-Ⅲ,PC and PS in the acute stage group were lower than those in the recovery stage group and the control group,difference had statistical significance(P <0.05).The levels of AT-Ⅲ and PS in the recovery stage group were lower than those in the control group with statistical difference (P <0.05),but the level of PC had no statistical difference between the recovery stage group and the control group.The further study found that the level of AT-Ⅲ,PC and PS in the small infarction group,middle infarction group and large infarction group showed the gradually decreasing trend,the differences had statistical significance (P <0.05).Conclusion The decrease of AT-Ⅲ, PC and PS levels is the importan factor of cerebral infarction occurrence and is closely correlated with cerebral infarction ocurrence especially in the patients less than 45 years old.Observing the change of PC,PS and AT-Ⅲ levels has the important significance for judging the cerebral infarction progression.

Objective To explore what cause the screw loosening after the internal fixation with thoracic and lumbar pedicle screws in the elderly and to develop the preventive measures.Methods Retrospective analysis were used to collect the clinical data from patients ager 60 years and over who had undergone surgeries of thoracolumbar pedicle screw internal fixation in our hospital during May 2011 and May 2013.Totally 187 cases were included in this study.According to whether there was a loosening of the screws, patients were divided into fixtion-loose and-well groups.The operation time and blood loss volume in the two groups were recorded.Visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI), the rate of screw loosening were compared at 6 months after operation and the last follow-up.The causes of screw loosening were analyzed.Results The main causes for the thoracic and lumbar pedicle screw internal fixation were thoracolumbar kyphoscoliosis, fractures,spondylolisthesis, cancer and degenerative diseases, etc.Patients were followed up for an average of (35.2±8.7) months.13 patients (7.0％) were found screw loosening, 5 males and 8 females, with the mean age of (78.4 ± 3.5) years.The screw loosening occurred 3 months to 1 year after the surgery, (7.6±3.7) months on average.Among the 13 patients with screw loosening, 1 patient suffered screw loosening in single segment, 3 patients in two segments, and 9 patients in three segments or above.Osteoporosis combined with screw loosening.appeared in 10 patients VAS and ODI scores in all subjects had statistically differences at 6 months after operation and the last follow up versus preoperation (P＜0.05 for all), but no statistical difference versus the last follow-up(P＞ 0.05).There were significant differences in gender and preoperative osteoporosis rate between the two groups (P＜0.05 for both).Conclusions Osteoporosis is one of the reasons for the screw loosening in elderly patients after pedicle screw internal fixation.The increased probability of the screw loosening in long segment may be related with the change of the older spine mechanics.Further randomized controlled trials are still required to confirm whether elderly osteoporosis patients need to receive bone cement augmentation treatment.

Objective To review the prevalence of nosocomial infection and the change of drug resistance in a comprehensive intensive care unit (ICU) and to provide theoretical basis for clinical prevention and treatment.Methods The strains of bacteria and fungi were isolated from ICU and their drug resistance was retrospectively analyzed from Jan.1st,2010 to Dec.31th,2011.Results The main pathogen of nosocomial infection were Gram-negative bacteria ( 73.3％ ),Gram-positive bacteria ( 17.9％ ) and fungi ( 8.7％ ).In bacterial infection,Gram-negative and G-positive bacteria accounted for 80.3％ and 19.7％ respectively.In Gram-negative bacteria,pseudomonas aeruginosa was the major type (21.7％).In Gram-positive bacteria,staphylococcus aureus (31.4％) was most prominent.Drug resistance of bacteria was severe,while that of fungi was mild.Conclusion Bacteria has severe drug resistance and exhibits multi-drug resistance for commonly used antibiotics.The principle of antibiotics application should be mastered and antibiotics should be chosen according to drug-sensitivity tests.

Objective To study the influence on primipara's second stage of labor with the methods of Changqiang-pressing and Vaginal-pressing. Methods 180 primipara in the second stage of labor were randomly divided into 3 groups of 60 each, in which Changqiang-pressing, Vaginal-pressing and general guidance (the control group) were used respectively. The duration of uterine contraction and second stage of labor, vaginal bleeding amount in 2 hours after delivery, mode of delivery, perineal injury and birth case would be evaluated. Results The results in both Changqiang-pressing group and Vaginal-pressing group were statistically significant when compared with the control group, but there was no significant difference between Changqiang-pressing group and Vaginal-pressing group. Conclusions Using Changqiang-pressing and Vaginal-pressing can promote the progress of the second stage of labor for primipara, reduce the rate of cesarean section and neonatal asphyxia, and improve the quality of obstetric department.
