Objective A quick and sensitive method was developed for determination of folic acid (FA) in infant formula milk powder. Method Perchloric aicd was added into infant formula milk powder to extract FA in ultrasonic wave condition. After solid-phase extraction (SPE) with C18 material as plug and reaction with potassium permanganate, FA was determined by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). pH 5.0 and 0.1 mol/L sodium dihydrogen phosphate were used as mobile phase. the flow rate was 1 ml/min. BDS C18 was used as separating column and column temperature was 30 ℃. Results The linear range of the method was 0.005-1.5 ?g/ml. The average recovery was 91.7%- 98.3%. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was 2.5%. The limit of detection was 0.005 ?g/ml, and the limit of quantification was 0.017 ?g/ml. Conclusion The method has following advantages: simple, precise, accurate and easy to practice.

BACKGROUND:Currently, modified laminoplasty with C7 spinous process and muscle attachment points reserved and C2, C7 decompressive laminectomy can reconcile both ful decompression and structure stability. With early isometric neck muscle exercise, it can enhance cervical dynamic and static force balance and maintain the stability of the cervical spine.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical effects of modified cervical laminoplasty with postoperative isometric neck muscle exercise on cervical spondylotic myelopathy patients.
METHODS:114 patients with cervical myelopathy were separately performed traditional cervical laminoplasty (control group), modified cervical laminoplasty (modified group), modified cervical laminoplasty, and neck muscle isometric exercise (combined group). Fol ow-up was conducted for 24 months.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Cervical Japanese Orthopaedic Association score, cervical Neck Disabilitv Index scores and the incidence of axial symptoms:There was no significant difference in the Japanese Orthopaedic Association score of three groups at 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery. At 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery, Neck Disability Index scores and constituent ratio of axial symptoms were better in the modified group than the other groups (P<0.05). (2) Results show that modified cervical laminoplasty with isometric neck muscle exercise can get better clinical results in the treatment of cervical myelopathy.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow necrosis has unspecific clinical features, which is often misdiagnosed or missed due to a lack of the knowledge of the disease. OBJECTIVE: To improve the awareness and vigilance to bone marrow necrosis, and to further explore the clinical manifestations, hematological characteristics, pathogenesis and treatment of bone marrow necrosis. METHODS: The bone marrow necrosis, hematologic neoplasms, solid tumor, bone marrow puncture, bone marrow pathology in Chinese and English served as the search terms to search articles related to bone marrow necrosis in PubMed and Wanfang databases, published from 1941 to 2016. Totally 43 articles were selected for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Bone marrow necrosis is a rare complication caused by various diseases, clinically characterized by bone pain, fever, anemia, and nucleated red cells and immature neutrophilic leukocytes in the blood smear. Bone marrow aspiration and/or bone marrow biopsy show(s) necrotic features. Its pathogenesis is complex, and it is still poorly understood and needs further research. There is no good treatment for bone marrow necrosis, and the prognosis is poor. Early correct diagnosis and etiological treatment are crucial for the prognosis of bone marrow necrosis.With the improvement of disease awareness, bone marrow cytology, genetics, MRI and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, bone marrow necrosis is expected to get a better prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the preliminary outcome of stable vitiligo treatment with ReCell(R )technique.Methods Six patients with stable vitiligo were treated with ReCell(R ) technique.In each patient,a thin razor-thickness cutaneous biopsy was harvested from uninvolved area near the vitiligo patches.It was then processed through the ReCell(R ) system and 1 ml autologous epidermal cell suspension was obtained.The lesion area was dermabraded using a diamond fraise wheel to the dermoepidermal junction.The cell suspension was then sprayed on the wound and covered with non-adhering dressings.Results The patients were followed up for 6 months.5 patients presented with repigmentaion in the treated area.There was no significant response in one patient who was diagnosed as systematic vitiligo.Conclusions The ReCell(R ) technique is an alternative treatment for stable vitiligo patients.The clinical outcome will be satisfactory when appropriate patients are selected.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the feasibility of immediate breast and nipple-areola reconstruction after skin-sparing mastectomy.

METHODS24 patients who received skin-sparing mastectomy underwent immediate breast reconstruction with or without breast implants. The nipple-areola complex is also reconstructed with the skin paddle of the latissimus dorsi flap in one stage.

RESULTSAll the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps survived completely. Partial necrosis happened in two reconstructed nipples which healed after dress changing. The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 12 months. 3 patients presented with capsular contracture (Baker I), with no necessary of surgical revision. The retraction rate of reconstructed nipples projection is 35.4% at 6 months postoperatively and 38.6% at 12 months postoperatively. 91.7% of patients were satisfied or very satisfied with the breast shape, while 83.3% were satisfied or very satisfied with the breast volume. All the patients considered the reconstructed nipple very good, while 91.6% were satisfied with the nipple projection. 91.7% considered immediate nipple reconstruction to be very important, and 8.3% considered it to be important. 66.7% considered the new breast could replace the breast they had lost, and 8.3% considered that it could not.

CONCLUSIONFor skin-sparing mastectomy, immediate breast and nipple reconstruction can achieve good aesthetic results.
