Immobilization is a usual method to treat the injury of skeletal muscle system and plays an important role in rehabilitation of diseases. But immobilization also displays some negative effects, of all, muscle system is affected significantly. The mechanism is explored in the article from immobilization-induced skeletal muscle atrophy, the dropping of muscle power, reduction of vessels density in muscle and metabolic disturbance of muscle. The authors of the article advances that shortening the period of immobilization as possible and performing early rehabilitation are important to remove the negative influence of immobilization, but all treatments should obey the medical rules.

Objective By developing ultrasound picture archiving and communication system(PACS),to implement networking of ultrasound imaging equipment, central image storage and standardization of computer-aided diagnosis report.Methods Ultrasound image workstation was develop to acquire, display, manipulate and print ultrasound static and dynamic images using C++ computer language. Also, all ultrasound equipments in department formed the DICOM network . Central image server and ultrasound information system server we re connected together with all workstations by computer Ethernet network, thus, using switch, and connecting to hospital internet WWW server to distribut the image and report. Results Ultrasound DICOM digital images and high quality video image successfully acquired, displayed, processed and network communicated, seamless integrated with hospital information system, functions such as image central storage, computer-aided report and sharing printing were implemented. Conclusions Application of ultrasound image management system improves the administration and increases work efficiency in imaging diagnosis, promotes the reform of working pattern of doctors and provides more convenience for work, research and study. Image systems highly increase the level of patient care service. Standardization of medical reports computer-aided is superior to handwritten report.

Objective To summarize the experiences in treating 30 cases of skin soft tissue defects in head and neck by applying repeated expansion, and to explore an effective and satisfactory method of massive defect repair in head and neck. Methods Skin soft tissues were repeatedly expanded for 1 to 3 times after the first expansion. Massive skin defects in head and neck were repaired several times by useing repeated expansion of flap. The size of the skin defects ranged from 29cm?24cm to 10cm?8cm. The indications, complications and experiences in the treatment were discussed. Results A total of 30 cases were treated. Complication incidences of every expansive procedure were 27%, 15%, 14% and 0% respectively . After 6～12 months postoperative follow-up, the appearance and functional restoration was satisfactory. Conclusion Repeated expansion is an excellent method of repairing massive defects in head and neck.

Objective To observe the effects of estrogen on the behavior and the norepinephrine level in the habenular nucleus of depressive rats,and explore the mechanism of estrogen involved in the process of antidepression.Methods Thirty rats were chosen from forty male Wistar rats,which had the similar scores in open field test.The depression models of rats were established by chronic mild stress.Open field test and forced swimming test were performed to detect the behavioral changes between rats with ovary excision(OVX) and with estradiol-treated ovary excision(OV/ER).High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used to observe the changes of norepinephrine level in habenular nucleus.Results After 21-day chronic mild stress,the open field test showed that the vertical motion and cross motion in OV/ER group were increased(P

Objective: To study the protective effect of compound extract of soybean, wolfberry and hawthorn on chemical liver injury in mice respectively. Methods:The mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:control(A), liver injury control(B)and 0.06(C)?0.20(D)?0.60(E) g/(kg?bw) compound extract group. The liver injury models were induced by CCl 4 and ethanol in mice respectively. After 4 weeks, for the former, the serum ALT and AST content were measured and the liver pathological change was observed. For the latter, the liver MDA, GSH, and TG content were measured and fat droplets staining in the ice pathological slice were observed . Results: 1.CCl 4 liver injury models:the content of serum ALT of group D and the AST of group D and E were decreased. Compared with normal group, the hepatic pathological changes of the compound extract group was mainly fatty and ballon degeneration, and that of the CCl 4 group was mainly hepatic cytoclasis. 2.Ethanol liver injury models: the content of liver MDA of group C, E and the TG of group C, D, E were all decreased, and the fatty degeneration scores of group C, D were lower, both compared with ethanol group. Conclusion: Compound extract of soybean, wolfberry and hawthorn has the protective effect on liver injuries induced by both CCl 4 and ethanol in mice.

Objective To investigate the modified fixation method in clinical use of intravenous indwelling needle.Methods 100 cases of patients with venous indwelling needle in our hospital emergency center were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 50 cases in each.The control group used conventional method of fixation,while the observation group was given modified method of fixation.The fixation effect of the 2 groups was compared.Results In the observation group,48 cases was with normal extubation,2 cases with abnomal extubation; while in the control group,35 cases was with normal extubation,15 cases with abnormal extubation.The comparison between the two groups showed statistically significant difference.Conclusions In the process of clinical use of intravenous indwelling needle,the modified fixation method is superior to conventional fixation method,which is worthy of clinical use.

Objective To examine the effects of genetic polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 (rs1695) genes on hematologic toxicities of breast cancer patients receiving Anthracycline/Paclitaxel- based chemotherapy. Methods Multiply PCR technique and High Resolution Melting method were used to examine these 3 genes polymorphsim in female breast cancers (n=252). Results The GSTP1(rs1695) AG/GG genotype was a risk factor forⅢ-Ⅳdegree of neu-trophil toxicity when patients received Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy and Anthracycline-Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy (OR=6.111, 95%CI 1.526-24.469, P<0.05 and OR=9.257, 95%CI 2.903-29.522, P<0.01). There were no statistic differ-ence onⅢ-Ⅳdegree hematologic toxicities rates between GSTM1(+) and GSTM1(-), GSTT1(+) and GSTT1(-) patients after they receiced Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy and Anthracycline-Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy( P>0.05);There was no statistic difference onⅢ-Ⅳdegree hematologic toxicities rates between GSTM1(+) and GSTM1(-), GSTT1(+) and GSTT1(-), GSTP1AA and GSTP1AG/GG patients after they receiced Anthracycline-based chemotherapy (P>0.05). Conclusion The genetic polymorphisms in GSTP1(rs1695) can be used as a gene marker for forecasting the chemotherapy, inducing neutrope-nia toxicities in breast cancer patients receiving Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of serum response factor (SRF) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR2) in gastric carcinoma. Methods SABC immunohistochemical method was used to determine the expressions of SRF and VEGFR2 in 50 cases of gastric carcinoma, 50 cases of surgery incisal edges and 29 cases of lymph node metastasis focus. Results The detection positive rates of SRF and VEGFR2 in gastric carcinoma were 52.00 % (26/50) and 60.00 %(30/50), respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the normal gastric mucosa [16.00 % (8/50) and 10.00 % (5/50), respectively] (P< 0.05), with no statistical difference with metastiatic lymph node [65.52 % (19/29) and 72.41 % (21/29), respectively]. In the gastric carcinoma group, the expression of SRF was relevant with depth of invasion and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). The expression of VEGFR2 was not related to age, gender and tumour size (P>0.05), but closely correlated to differentiation degree, invasion depth and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). The expressions of SRF and VEGFR2 in the gastric carcinoma were positively correlated (r= 0.594, P< 0.05). Conclusion Overexpressions of SRF and VEGFR2 in gastric carcinoma can be regarded as the poorly prognostic markers and play an important role in invasion and metastasis of gastric carcinoma.
