Objective To investigate the clinical value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in the diagnosis of postnatal placenta increta. Methods Twenty-six patients with postnatal placenta increta were examined by gray-scale and color Doppler ultrasound and CEUS. Then microvascular perfusion and enhanced features of lesions, myometrium and serous layer were observed. Arriving time (AT), time to peak intensity (TTP) and the lasting time of enhancement (LTE) were recorded. AT,TTP and LTE of enhanced lesions were compared with those of normal myometrium. Results Serous layer, lesions and adjcent myometrium,normal myometrium enhanced in turn. There was no obvious boundary between the lesions enhanced and adjcent myometrium. AT and TTP of the lesions enhanced were both less than those of normal myometrium ( P ＜0. 05). LTE of the part of lesions enhanced was more than that of normal myometrium ( P ＜0.05).Part of lesions never enhanced during the whole process. The serous layer of uterine was smooth and uninterrupted in 24 patients. These 24 patients all recovered after conservative treatment. The local serous layer adjcent lesions was not smooth, but no contrast agent leakage occurred in another 2 patients, and uterine lobectomy were performed in emergency because of massive hemorrhage during conservative treatment. Conclusions Microvascular perfusion and enhanced features of lesions,myometrium and serous layer could be showed clearly through CEUS.

Objective The present study investigated the expression of heat shock cognate protein 70 (Hsc70) in the synovial tissues and blood samples of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to determine the pathological role of this protein in the pathogenesis of the disease.Methods The expression of Hsc70 in synovial membranes was quantitatively analyzed by immunohistochemistry,real-time quantitative PCR and western blotting.The samples from osteoarthritis (OA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) were used as controls.The levels of Hsc70 in blood of patients with RA were determined using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with the samples of the healthy subjects as controls.Statistical analysis was conducted with one-way ANOVA,LSD test and Spearmen's correlation.Results Immunohistochemistry showed that Hsc70 had significantly increased expression in synovial tissues of RA than in the samples of OA and AS.Real-time PCR and western blotting confirmed the above findings.ELISA detected significantly elevated level of Hsc70 in blood of patients with RA as compared with samples from the controls (P＜0.01).Conclusion The study suggests that the up-regulation of Hsc70 may be involved in the pathogenic process of RA.

Objective To develop a candidate reference method for the determination of sodium in serum by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry method (ICP-MS). Methods Aluminum, as internal standard of sodium, was added into serum samples and sodium standard solutions by gravimetric analysis. The samples were digested by HNO3 and diluted, and its 23Na/27Al isotope ratios were obtained by ICP-MS. The sodium concentrations were calculated with the standard curve method in serum. Results The analytical recoveries of sodium were 100.67% and 100.15% respectively, and the precisions were 0.08% and 0.04% respectively for 2 different serum samples. The results of measuring sodium in serum of Standard Reference Material (SRM) gave the coefficients of variation (CVs) of 0.18% and 0.22% for 2 levels of standard reference material(SRM) 909b and 0.41%, 0.41% and 0.66% for 3 levels of SRM 956b. The relative deviations between the results and median of the certified value were 0.17% and 0.14% for 909b and -0.09%, -1.05%, -0.48% for 956b respectively. Conclusions The ICP-MS and aluminum internal standard method is proved to be not only precise and accurate, but also quick and convenient for measuring sodium in serum. It is promising to be a candidate reference method for determination of sodium in serum.

Objective To explore different treatment choices for unilateral cervical facet locking. Methods The study involved 32 patients with cervical unilateral facet locking. Successful reduction by the skull traction was done in eight patients, of whom three were fixated by the head and neck chest plas-ter after a month of traction. Five patients were treated with anterior decompression and internal fusion fixation. The other 23 patients resulted in failure of traction and then were treated with anterior reduction, discectomy and internal fusion fixation in 14 patients, subtotal vertebral decompression and bone graft fix-ation in three, posterior open reduction and anterior bone graft fixation in one, posterior reduction, fixation and internal fusion fixation in three and posterior reduction and decompression plus anterior discectomy decompression and bone graft fixation in two. Due to misdiagnosis, one patient was treated with anterior decompression and fusion eight months after injury. Results A follow-up for average 18 months showed cervical instability in two patients who were treated with only traction, without fusion. The patients treated with anterior cervical fusion obtained bone union after 12 weeks, with satisfactory cervical physiological curvature and vertebral height. There were no internal fixation complications or neurological complications. Conclusions The treatment of lower cervical unilateral facet locking needs a compre-hensive considerations on whether there associates with disc injury, posterior column fractures or spinal cord injuries. As for patients with lower cervical unilateral facet locking combined with traumatic cervical disc herniation, the anterior reduction and decompression is the choice of treatment. While for those with-out disc herniation, traction or posterior open reduction and fixation can be carried out directly.
