Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of vertebra pedical nail strengthened by bone cement.Methods 48 cases with vertebral illness were divided into two groups,each group of 24 cases.One group goes ahead of the restvertebra pedical nail dishpour into viscous polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA),another group fixed by regular vertebra pedical nail.VAS score,spinal stability and JOA score were adopted to evaluate curative effect synthetically.Results After 1 month,6 months,12 months,the VAS scores in the treatment group were(3.12 ± 1.65),(3.08 ±1.10),(3.09 ± 1.25),and the VAS scores in the control group were(4.31 ±2.13),(4.22 ± 1.48),(4.12 ±1.34),the VAS scores had statistically significant differences between the two groups postoperative 1 month,6months,12 months(t =2.15,2.08,1.97,all P＜0.05);after 1 month,6 months,12 months JOA scores in the treatment group were(26.76 ±4.36),(26.78 ±2.10),(26.96 ± 1.89),and JOA scores in the control group were (24.13 ± 5.28),(24.32 ± 1.68),(24.32 ± 1.99),the JOA score differences had statistically significances between the two groups(x2 =5.031,P ＜0.05);the excellent rates of the treatment group was 90.13％,which was higher than 85.01％ of the control group(t =3.54,3.39,3.56,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Patients receiving vertebra pedical nail strengthened by bone cement was better than regular vertebra pedical nail skill.

Objective To investigate the probable pathologic basis of amido proton transfer(APT) imaging by analysing APT signal intensity and pathologic features of different grades of glioma.Methods Twenty-eight patients with glioma confirmed by postoperative pathology underwent APT scan.All the patients were divided into two groups,including 11 cases in low grade (WHO Ⅰ and Ⅱ) and 17 cases in high grade (WHO Ⅲ and Ⅳ) group.The APT rate of tumor core was measured.The specimens were processed with routine hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemistry of Ki-67 and CD34.Independent-samples t test was used to detect the difference of APT rate,cellularity,microvessel density and Ki-67 labeling indices of tumor core between low grade and high grade group.Pearson correlation analysis and multi-variable linear regression analysis were used to detect the relationship of APT rate with cellularity,microvessel density and Ki-67 labeling indices of the tumor core.Results The APT rate,cellularity and proliferation index were (2.3±0.6) ％,(9.4±2.4) ％ and (14.2±5.4) ％ in low grade group,while (3.6±0.7) ％,(18.4±4.7) ％ and (31.7±4.5) ％ in high grade group,respectively.Microvessel density was (19.0±7.4) per high-power field in low grade group and (38.9±11.3) in high grade group.There were statistical differences of the APT rate,cellularity,microvessel density and proliferation index between the low grade group and the high grade group (t=-4.94,-5.89,-5.13,and-9.28,respectively,P＜0.01).The APT rate was positive correlated with cellularity,microvessel density and proliferation index.The coefficient of correlation were 0.904,0.598,and 0.750,respectively,(P＜0.01).Multiple linear correlative analysis showed that increasing cellularity (X1),microvessel density (X2) and proliferation index (X3) were the main factors for increasing APT rate,and the correlation equation was Y=0.801 + 0.12X1-0.003X2 + 0.026X3 (F=46.437,P＜0.01,R2=0.853).Conclusions The APT signal intensity of the tumor core could reflect the pathologic features of glioma.The APT rate was positive correlated with cellularity,microvessel density and proliferation index,which indicate the higher APT rate the higher grade tumor.

Objective To study the long term effect and practical value of unilateral cleft lip repair with extended Mohler surgery based on over 10 years experiences.Methods A lot of 320 cases with unilateral cleft lip were repaired with extended Mohler surgery at average age of 5 months and 20 days.65 repaired cases were followed up and long term treatment result was evaluated.26 cases were evaluated in 10.5 to 15 years after surgery.39 cases were evaluated in 6 to 24 months after surgery.And the details of surgery were described.Results Excellent results for most of cleft patients (63 cases, 97%) were achieved, which included unobvious vertical scar symmetric to unaffected philtrum column, symmetric cupid's bow, nostrils and intermedial nasal columellae.Conclusions Extended Mohler surgery is great valuable for unilateral cleft lip repair.Appropriate indications should be stressed.

Objective:To evaluate the vomer development of cleft palate patients.Methods:38 patients over 1 4 years(averaged 23.4 years)of age with cleft palate and 76 controls of normal people(aged 22.8 year on average)were included.The 3D computed tomo-graphy reconstruction images of the bony nasal septum were measured.The development of the vomer was evaluated by comparing the L1 (the length of the lower edge of the vomer),L2 (the length from nasal spine to the point of the sella)and S (the approximate area of vomer)among deferent groups.Results:The L1 ,L2,and S of cleft palate patients were smaller than those of the controls(P <0. 05).Compared with the postoperative cleft cases,the S and L2 of preoperative cases were bigger(P <0.05).Conclusion:The vomer development is adversely affected by cleft palate.Not only the vomer-palate fusion is lower,but also the sutura between vomer and na-sal septum cartilage and ethmoid bone are short.And the latter is greatly influenced by surgical trauma.

Objective To evaluate the occupational competency of clinical post-graduate students by the 360-degree feedback system.Methods The occupational competencies of the 102 clinical post-graduate students were evaluated by department directors, teachers, the superior band taught physicians, peers, post-graduate themselves using a self-designed questionnaire.The evaluation content of professional competence included 12 core elements, such as medical knowledge, clinical skills, and professional ethics and so on.EpiData 3.02 was used to establish the database, SPSS 19.0 software was used to carry on the statistical analysis, and the statistical analysis method was mainly for the descriptive statistics analysis, the single factor analysis of variance.Results 5 kinds of evaluation subjects were statistically significant (P＜0.05) in medical knowledge, clinical skills, clinical thinking ability, lifelong learning ability, professional ethics, team cooperation ability, self cognition and management ability and total score.Students themselves and their peers scored high in various aspects, teaching superior doctors rated middle and the director and mentor gave low grade in all aspects and the scores rated by the department directors and teachers were lower than students themselves(P=0.003, P=0.047).Conclusion The 360-degree evaluation system can comprehensively and objectively evaluate the clinical post-graduate students' occupational competency and offer beneficial assistant to clinic and practice.

Objective To investigate the relationship between cathepsin L and apoptosis cell in rats after cerebral ischemia reperfusion.Methods Sixty healthy male Sprague-Dawley Rats (10-12 weeks old,260-300 g) were chosen.Based on the random number table method,the rats were randomly divided into sham-operated control group (Sham group,n =10),ischemia-reperfusion group (model group,n =25),and Z-FY-DMK intervention group (CLI group,n =25).Rats were randomly divided into 6 h,12 h,24 h,and 48 h four subgroups in model group and CLI group,respectively.Modified transient middle cerebral artery occlusion was made as Longa described,the intervention groups were injected intracerebroventricularly Z-FY-DMK (20 μg / 1μ1 ×5 μl) preoperative 30 min prior to surgery,Sham group and schemia reperfusion injury (IRI) group were injected intracerebroventricularly dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) 5 μ1 (10ml/L) at the same time.Cell apoptosis was detected by terminal dexynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) straining.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of cathepsin L and caspase-3.Results In the cortical area of ischemic brain,apoptosis cells of sham operation group were rare,while apoptosis of nerve cells of model group with 6 hours reperfusion were visible,and were gradually increased in the order of 12 hours,24 hours and 48 hours.At the same time point,the apoptosis cells of CL intervention group (6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h) were obviously less than model group (P ＜0.05).Western blotting found little visible cathepsin L protein expression in ischemic cerebral cortex preoptic in the sham group.For model group,the cathepsin L expression initially increased in sub groups with 6 hours reperfusion,reached to a peak in sub groups with 12 hours and 24 hours,and remained a high level in sub groups with 48 hours reperfusion.Compared to model group,the cathepsin L expressions of CL intervention group were obviously decreased at all time points (P ＜ O.05).Conclusions Cathepsin L may be involved in neuronal apoptosis by means of caspases 3 pathway.

Objective To investigate the imaging characteristics of USPIO-enhanced and Gd-enhanced MRI in atherosclerosis and to compare the detection rate of atherosclerotic plaque between them. Methods Thirty-five healthy male rabbits were assigned to experimental group (n=30) to establish a model of atherosclerosis by damaging aortic tunica intima with Foley′s tube in combination with a high fat diet and 5 to control group without any intervention. At week 12, USPIO-enhanced and Gd-enhanced MRI scanning were conducted to compare the signal changes of atherosclerotic plaque before and after enhancement with the 2 contrast media. Ninety seven pictures were randomly selected respectively from the pictures enhanced by the 2 contrast media to compare the detection rate plaque between them. Pthology examination was used for detection standard. For the control group , pictures were randomly selected. Results In the experimental group, 7 rabbits died of Foley′s tube damaging, 2 died of raising and 1 died of anesthesia. All 5 rabbits in control group survived. A total of 172 pathological sections were made with 134 plaques and 72 vulnerable plaques pathologically confirmed. In pictures enhanced by USPIO , 84 plaques were confirmed by HE staining with a detection rate of 86.6%. In pictures enhanced by Gd, 72 plaques were confirmed by HE staining with a detection rate of 74.2%. Detection rate of USPIO-enhanced MRI in atherosclerosis plaque was significantly higher than that of Gd-enhanced MRI (X2=3.96, P=0.046). Conclusion USPIO shows its superiority as a new contrast medium in detection of atherosclerosis plaque.

Objective To investigate the expression of gastric and intestinal phenotypic markers in Siewert typeⅡand Ⅲ early gastroesophageal junction(GEJ) cancer, and to explore its correlation with clinic-pathological features.Methods From April 2010 to July 2015, 53 cases diagnosed as early GEJ cancer were enrolled.The gastric and intestinal phenotypic markers such as mucin5AC(MUC5AC),mucin6(MUC6),mucin2(MUC2),caudal related homeodomain transcription 2(CDX2) and cluster of differentiation 10(CD10) were detected, and then the patients were divided into gastric type, gastrointestinal type, intestinal type and non-classified type according to the results of immunohistochemical staining.Combined with Siewert classification the clinicopathological features were analyzed.Chi square test or Fisher′s exact test was performed for statistical analysis.Results In the cancer tissues of 47 patients with Siewert type Ⅱand Ⅲ early GEJ cancer, the case numbers of positive expression of MUC5AC,MUC6,MUC2, CDX2 and CD10 were 21(44.7%),19(40.4%),31(66.0%),27(57.4%) and 17(36.2%),respectively;the case numbers of gastric type, gastrointestinal type, intestinal type and non-classified type were 11(23.4%),14(29.8%),21(44.7%) and one(2.1%), respectively.The positive expression rates of MUC5AC and MUC6 in Siewert typeⅡwere 55.9%(19/34) and 50.0%(17/34),which were higher than those of Siewert typeⅢ(2/13), and the positive expression rate of MUC2 was 55.9%(19/34), which was lower than that of Siewert typeⅢ(12/13), and the differences were statistically significant (x2=6.240,4.679 and 4.053;all P<0.05).In Siewert typeⅡ, the proportion of intestinal type was 32.4%(11/34), which was lower than that of Siewert typeⅢ(10/13), and the differences were statistically significant (x2=7.142,P=0.010).In patients with Siewert typeⅡand Ⅲ early cancer, males predominated in intestinal type which were mostly well differentiated type with less submucosal carcinoma.The maximum diameter of tumor was less than those of gastric type and gastrointestinal type.In paracancerous mucosal tissues, the incidences of intestinal metaplasia in gastrointestinal type and intestinal type were 11/14 and 81.0%(17/21), which were higher than that of gastric type (3/11);the incidences of atrophy in gastrointestinal type and intestinal type were 12/14 and 85.7%(18/21),which were higher than that of gastric type (4/11),and the differences were statistically significant (Fisher′s exact test,all P<0.05).Conclusions Siewert typeⅡand Ⅲ early GEJ cancer can directly originated not only from gastric mucosa, but also from gastrointestinal and intestinal mucosa.Atrophy and intestinal metaplasia could exist before cancer genesis.

Objective To summarize the clinical outcomes of surgical correction of velophary geal insufficiency (VPI) with two procedures of radical intravelar veloplsties,and to discuss the indication selection of surgical technique.Methods 58 cases of various cleft palate were speech evaluated and diagnosed as mild to moderate VPI,who aged from 3 to 28 years (mean age 7.5 years).Group Ⅰ (36 cases) were performed surgery in the way of modified Furlow double-opposing Z-plasty.Group Ⅱ (22 cases) were performed surgery in the way of Sommerald radical IVV.All cases were followed up for 6 months to 1 year after surgery,with speech evaluation and objective examination of nasopharygoscopy and fixed position lateral X ray.The X-ray images of lateral view of velum was read through PACS image system.The effective work length of soft palate and the pharyngeal gap of the velum at rest and function were measured directly through PACS system.The data of each case before and after surgery were compared.Results 34 of 36 cases (94.50％) in modified-Furlow group and 21 of 22 cases (95.5％) in Sommerlad group finally recovered complete velopharyngeal closure.Compared between before and post operation,the effective work length of soft palate in modified Furlow group increased by 9.50±2.35 mm,the length in Sommerlad group increased by 7.50±3.32 mm.The differences were statistically significant by paired T test (P＜0.001).None of all cases complained nasal airway obstruction.Conclusions Both types of radical IVVs are highly effective to be recommended for surgical correction of mild to moderate VPI.Strict selection of surgical indication and excellent surgical skill are necessary for good treatment outcomes.
