AimTo investigate the protective effect of nerve growth factor (NGF) from the Chinese cobra venom on spinal neurons after sciatic nerve lesion. Methods Fourty Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups each containing 20 animals. After surgical crush lesion on the bilateral sciatic nerve, the rats were injected NGF into the target muscle every day. On the d 5 and d 10 after operation, enzyme histochemistry technique was used to show acetycholinesterase(AchE) activity of the motoneurons in L5～S2 spinal cord anterior hornandfluorideresistantacidphophatase (FRAP) activity of substantia gelatinosa in L5～ S2 spinal cord posterior horn. The activity of enzyme was analysed with computer image analysis system. Results Compared with the control group, the activity of FRAP in NGF group was higher on the d 5 and d 10 after operation and the activity of AchE in NGF group was higher on the d 10 after operation. ConclusionIt is demonstrated that NGF could protect the mononeurons in spinal cord anterior horn and the sensory neurons in dorsal root ganglia after axotomy.

Objective:To investigate dermoscopic features of childhood vulvar lichen sclerosus.Methods:From January 2019 to May 2021, 79 female children with vulvar lichen sclerosus were collected from Kunming Children′s Hospital, and their dermoscopic features at first and return visits were analyzed retrospectively.Results:Among the 79 female children with vulvar lichen sclerosus, their age ranged from 2.4 to 12 years, the age at onset was 5.6 ± 2.12 years, the course of disease was 14.23 ± 12.36 months, and 30 children received regular follow-up and treatment. Among 329 skin lesions at the first visit, characteristic vascular shapes were observed in 149 (45.3%) , including linear vessels in 129, punctate vessels in 25, coiled vessels in 19, and hairpin-like vessels in 12; degenerative structures and pigment abnormalities were seen in 207 (62.92%) , including bluish-gray pigmented structures in 136, brown pigmented structures in 51, pepper-like patterns in 15, etc.; yellowish-white structureless areas were found in 280 (85.1%) , follicular keratotic plugs in 97 (29.5%) , and reddish-violet globules and patches in 66 (20%) . Among 238 skin lesions at the return visit, characteristic vascular shapes were observed in 100 (42%) , including linear vessels in 87, dendritic vessels in 21 and punctate vessels in 4, and no hairpin-like vessels were observed; degenerative structures and pigment abnormalities were seen in 154 (64.70%) , including brown pigmented structures in 93, bluish-gray pigmented structures in 57, and pepper-like patterns in 4; yellowish-white structureless areas were found in 165 (69.3%) , follicular keratotic plugs in 62 (26.1%) , and reddish-violet globules and patches in 8 (3.4%) . The prevalence rates of bluish-gray pigmented structures, yellowish-white structureless areas, reddish-violet globules and patches, punctate vessels, hairpin-like vessels, and coiled vessels in the skin lesions were all significantly lower at the return visit than at the first visit (all P < 0.05) , while the prevalence rate of the brown pigmented structure was significantly higher at the return visit than at the first visit ( P < 0.05) . Conclusion:Under a dermoscope, yellowish-white structureless areas are a highly specific characteristic of childhood vulvar lichen sclerosus, and therapeutic effect can be monitored by observing changes in dermoscopic features, including brown pigmented structures, bluish-gray pigmented structures, yellowish-white structureless areas, reddish-violet globules and patches, and vascular structures. Dermoscopy shows favorable application value in auxiliary diagnosis and follow-up observation of childhood vulvar lichen sclerosus.

Objective To investigate the effect of supine regulating on maternal fetal occiput posterior position during the delivery after epidural analgesia. Methods Totally600 cases of parturient with intravaginal posterior occipital position with 3cm voluntary labor analgesia were selected,who were born in Dalian maternity hospital from October 2015 to October 2016.The(Visual Analogue Scale/Score) VAS pain score at 15min after epidural labor analgesia was as effective as less than 3 points.They were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group by random number table method,with 300 cases in each group.The control group monitored parturient respiration, pulse, blood pressure, heart rate and fetal heart rate according to routine treatment.The control group monitored parturient respiration, pulse, blood pressure, heart rate and fetal heart rate according to routine treatment.In the observation group,except for routine treatment according to the labor process,after the opening of 5cm,the pregnant women were instructed to take the lateral prone position,so that the maternal side and the fetal side of the spinal column should be the same side. To observe the difference between the two groups in the rate of spontaneous vaginal delivery, delivery rate, cesarean section rate, fetal cardioversion rate, time of birth process and neonatal Apgar score. Results Totally 283 cases delivery through vagina and 17 cases of cesarean section in observation group,while 257 cases of vaginal delivery and 43 cases of cesarean section in the control group.The successful rate of fetal position transfer in the observation group was 74.6%(211/283) which was significantly higher than 45.9% (118/257) of the control group (Χ2=62.782, P<0.01), natural labor rate was also 87.3% (262/300) which increased significantly according to 64.7% (194/300) (Χ2=42.251, P<0.01),the rate of midwifery (7.0%, 21/300) and cesarean section (5.7%, 17/300) were significantly lower than 21.0% (63/300)and 14.3% (43/300) of the control group (Χ2=24.419, 12.519,P<0.01),the second stage of labor was(1.60±0.56)h which was significantly shortened than(2.19±0.53)h also(t=-12.589,P<0.01).In the observation group, the ratio of the posterior occipital position to the occipital transverse position after the opening of 8-10 cm and the complete dilation of the cervical were 7.4%(21/283)and 13.1%(37/283),which were also significantly increased than 3.4%(9/264),6.8%(18/264) of the control group (Χ2=4.240, 5.911, P<0.05). Conclusions Supine adjustment after the cervix dilatation larger than 5cm is more conducive to fetal rotation and to avoid the adverse complications, reduce the rate of vaginal delivery and cesarean section rate,improve the rate of natural childbirth,shorten delivery time,improve the quality of delivery.
