Three widely used methods of sediment toxicity evaluation were introduced in the present paper, including organism toxicity tests, toxicity identification evaluation(TIE) and sediment quality guidelines(SQGs). Compared with the chemical analysis, toxicity tests have an advantage of taking the bioavailability of POPs into account, however, it fails to identify the causative toxicants. TIE, integrating with physicochemical analysis, implicates the specific pollutants in a tiered approach, and by which effective remediation can be designed accordingly. The sediment toxicity can be identified more quickly and appropriately by SQGs than by the former two methods. The differences among the different SQGs constituted by different standards may affect their values for toxicity evaluation. Extensive and reliable SQGs had been acquired to improve their utility. Finally, the combination of chemical analysis, toxicity tests and in situ bioassays will be the trend of sediment toxicity evaluation in the future.

Objective To study the distribution of pathogenic bacterium and its sensitivity to antibiotic in severe cerebral vascular disease patients with nosocomial pneumonia.Methods Retrospective studies were done in 42 cases of severe cerebral vascular disease patients in neurological intensive care unit (NICU). Secretion from lower respiratory tract was cultivated and done medicine sensitive test at 3 d、4 d、5 d、9 d、16 d after hospitalized,then the etiologic data of nosocomial pneumonia were analyzed.Results Among 42 cases,15 pathogenic microorganisms and 163 strains were cultivated, the fisrt 4 strains were Staphylococcus aureus,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella and Enterobacter cloacae. The results of medicine sensitive test indicated that Gram-negative bacteria was sensitive to Imipenem,and Gram-positive bacteria was sensitive to Vancomycin.Conclusions The main pathogen of nosocomial pneumonia in severe cerebral vascular disease patients may be Staphylococcus aureus,Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Staphylococcus aureus was sensitive to Vancomycin,so Vancomycin can be act as the first choice drug to deal Gram-positive bacteria. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is relatively sensitive to Amikacin and Ciprofloxacin,while Imipenem is the second, but drug fast is to cephalosporins. So the first two antibiotics can be as the experience drugs to deal Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Objective To explore the etiology of headache after aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and find clinical features of various kinds of headache.Methods All of the 107 patients with SAH and intracranial aneurysm diagnosed upon CT scan and angiographic demonstration within 24 hours after onset were evaluated by numeric rating scales (NRS) 1,2,3,5,7,10 and 14 days after SAH. Patients suffered from moderate-severe headache were examined by cranial CT scan and transcranial Doppler (TCD) to find the reason, and their diversities were analyzed.Results 86.9% (93/107) patients with SAH suffered from moderate-severe headache. 9.7% (9/93) of them were caused by rebleeding of untreated aneurysm and the pain always occurred abruptly, always followed by conscious disturbance/new neurological signs. CT scan found hydrocephalus in 16.1% (15/93) patients with headache, they could aggravated with time but sometimes released spontaneously; TCD found intracranial vasospasm in 12.9% (12/93) of patients, their clinical features were no more than other 61.3% (57/93) patients with negative results, but patient's condition could exacerbate caused by later brain ischemia or even infarction.Conclusion Majority of SAH patients suffer from headache.

Alcoholic dementia is increasingly becoming both a severe medical issue and a social problem; the unknown overall mechanism is the bottleneck for effective intervention and treatment of alcoholic brain injury. As the primary structure for the release, transmission of neurotransmitter and information integration between neurons, synapse plays a significant role in performing the advanced function of brain, such as learning and memory. Based on the neurobiological principles of synaptic structure and function, the changes in process and efficiency of synaptic transmission and information integration stressed by alcoholic molecular were reviewed in comparison with the normal process. The molecular mechanisms for alcoholic brain damage in learning and memory abilities were systematically discussed from the levels of synaptic morphology, material components, and signal transduction, respectively, and the repairing strategies for the damaged synaptic structure were proposed accordingly. Hopefully, this review could provide a deep insight into understanding the molecular mechanism of alcoholic brain damage, and draw ideas for the memory-enhancing peptides development.
