Objective To investigate the mechanism of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) in articular cartilage defect repair in vivo.Methods The cylindrical,full-thick articular cartilage defects,(3.5 mm) in diameter,were made in the knee joints of 25 rabbits.rhGH of 0.1 U/kg was injected into the right knee joints 3 times a week for 4 weeks and equal volume of physiological saline to the left knee joints as control.The animals were killed respectively in 4,6,8,12,24 weeks,and the macroscopic,histologic and ultrastractural examinations were performed.Results The repairing process in experimental group was faster and better than that in the control.In the experimental groups,the defect was filled on week 4,the regenerated cartilage mainly in the shallow region and fibrous tissue in the deep region;on week 24,the regenerated tissue was morphologically close to the neighbour normal cartilage,hard to differentiate by macroscopy;Light microscopy showed the defect recovered to normal cartilage structure and the electron microscopy showed a large quantity of mature cartilage cells.In the control groups,the defect was of shallow introcession,mainly of fibrous tissue.The histological examination showed the significant difference between experimental and control groups(P

Objective To evaluate the effect of health education on endemic diseases in Henan province in 2010.Methods According to the requirements of The Education Program for Endemic Diseases Control in 2009 Henan Province,50 counties (districts) of 18 cities with endemic diseases were selected.Referring to the health education questionnaire in the program,knowledge of endemic diseases were asked of pupils and housewives.Intervention effects were evaluated two months after teaching pupils and housewives in counties,towns,villages and schools with the knowledge of endemic diseases and the questionnaire was used.Results Among 50 counties investigated,5523 pupils and 3206 housewives were surveyed in the baseline according to the requirement,and 5417 pupils and 2891 housewives were surveyed for outcome evaluation.The results showed that after this education,pupils' knowledge about endemic diseases increased from 66.31%(10 987/16 569) in the baseline survey to 93.84%(15 250/16 251),the difference have statistical significant(x2 =3877.78,P < 0.01) ; housewives from 67.56%(6133/9078)to 92.67%(8037/8673),the difference have statistical significant(x2 =1736.33,P < 0.01).After the education,the pupils' knowledge about the iodine deficiency disorders,drinking-water-borne fluorosis and arsenic poisning,coal-burning-borne fluorosis increased from 70.15% (6263/8928),62.29%(4423/7101),42.96% (185/270),68.52% (116/270) to 94.19% (8344/8859),93.05% (6376/6852),99.63% (261/270),96.67% (269/270),the difference have statistical significant (x2 =1749.85,1939.26,211.83,74.43,all P < 0.01),housewives' knowledge about the iodine shortage diseases,drinking-water-borne fluorosis,the endemic fluorine,the arsenic poisoning increased from 73.27% (3330/4545),62.79% (2677/4263,30.37% (85/135),62.96%(41/135) to 93.96%(4228/4500),91.08%(3555/3903),97.04%(123/135),91.11%(131/135),the difference have statistical significant (x2 =751.03,924.65,129.75,30.23,all P < 0.01).Conclusions Health education intervention has a marked effect in increasing the peoples' knowledge of endemic diseases.Therefore health education should be enhanced in the future.

Objective To evaluate the application value of bedside lung ultrasound in diagnosis of neonatal severe pneumonia.Methods Bedside lung ultrasound and chest X-ray were performed in 59 the newborn patients admitted to the newborn department for suspected severe pneumonia,from October 2015 to March 2016.According to the characteristics of the chest X-ray,patients were divided into consolidation group (widely spot shadow in double lung and airbronchograms) and the unconsolidation group (enlargement,fuzzy texture in double lung or small patch sample changes) Differences in ultrasonic characteristics were compared between the two groups.Results Ultrasonic image characteristics were pulmonary consolidation with air bronchograms,A-line disappearance,pleural line abnormalities.Among 23 patients with chest X-ray,21 patients were found pulmonary consolidation by lung ultrasound,and all 36 patients in unconsolidation group were not found pulmonary consolidation by lung ultrasound,and there was no significant difference in the detection rate by lung ultrasound between the two groups (P>0.05) The pulmonary ultrasound results of 20 cases in the consolidation group showed A-line disappearance,37 cases in the unconsolidation group showed A-line disappearance.There was no statistical significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05).The pulmonary ultrasound results showed 11 cases in the consolidation group and 15 cases in the unconsolidation group with pleural line abnormalities,there was no statistically significant differences between the two groups (P>O.05).Conclusions Ultrasound image characteristics of neonatal severe pneumonia include pulmonary consolidation and air bronchograms,A-line disappearance,pleural line abnormalities.Compared lung ultrasound and chest X-ray result,there was no difference between consolidation group and unconsolidation group.Both of the two methods can be used for evaluating the diagnosis of pneumonia.

Objective To study the characteristics of hepatic artery anatomy and master the method of arterial repair,especially the method and technology of repair of anomalous donor arteries.Methods Sixty-four(human) liver arteries were dissected and repaired,and 31 of these were used in liver transplantation.Results Twelve of 64 cases had anatomical anomaly of hepatic artery(12/64,18.75%).Five of 24 fetal(liver) donors(20.83%) had anatomical anomaly of hepatic artery,one arose from the superior mesentery(artery) as a replaced right hepatic artery,3 from accessory right hepatic artery,and in 1 case the hepatic(artery) arose from superior mesentery artery directly.Seven adults had hepatic artery anomalies:2 cases of right hepatic artery being replaced by artery derived from SMA,2 cases of left hepatic artery deriving from left gastric artery and 3 cases of accessory right hepatic artery derived from SMA.In 31 hepatic(transplantations),4 grafts with anatomical anomaly of right hepatic artery were used.Conclusions (Reconstruction) of hepatic artery plays an important role in hepatic transplantation.Avoidance of injury to(aberrant) hepatic avteries during removal of donor liver is a key to ensure successful arterial repair.During(repair) of very small accessory hepatic arteries,ligation or repair of the artery may be determined after(observation) of backflow from collateral vessels.
