Objective To explore ways to decrease peripheral vascular complications during parenteral nutrition through peripheral veins. Methods According to the support sequences of giving peripheral parenteral nutrition, ninty perioperative cases were randomly divided into low(20. 3 kPa·h-1 ),medium(27. 1 kPa·h-1 ) and high(33. 9 kPa·h-1 ) osmotic pressure rates(n=30 in each group). The infusion pump was used to control the rate of infusion. The total parenteral nutrient was infused through BD24G venous indwelling needles. The pain ratings at injection sites were evaluated after parenteral nutrition everyday,the incidences of phlebitis were observed three days later after removing the indwelling needles. ResultsUnder the low osmotic pressure,the pain was mild,while for the medium osmotic pressure,the pain became more obvious. The pain was aggravated obviously under high osmotic pressure. There were only two cases of over grade-II phlebitis under low osmotic pressure rate,9 cases under medium osmotic pressure rate and 14 cases under high osmotic pressure rate, in which a grade-Ⅲ phlebitis developed. Conclusion Decreasing the osmotic pressure rate through peripheral venous is an effective method to avoid or reduce the incidences of peripheral vascular complications with the peripheral parenteral nutrition support.

OBJECTIVETo study clinical effects of surgery for the treatment of Mayo II B comminuted fracture in ulna olecranon.

METHODSFrom May 2008 to March 2015, a total of 37 patients with Mayo II B comminuted fracture in ulua olecranon were treated, including 20 males and 17 females, ranging in age from 40 to 65 years old ,with an average of 53 years old. All the patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixation within 4 to 7 days after injuries. All the patients had pain and functional disorder uf elbow joint. The X-ray and CT examination showed ulna olecranon comminuted fracture of Mayo II B. Postoperative complications were observed ,and Broberg-Morrey criteria was used tu evaluate therapeutic effects.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up ,and the duraiton ranged from 9 to 30 months ,with a mean of 15 months. Two patients had surface infection around incision ,and were healed by changing dressings. No other complications occurred such as needle slipping to stimulate skin ,screw loosening and wire broken. One patient had slight uneveness of joint surface without obvious functional disorder. According to Broberg-Morrey elbow fracture curative effect criteria, 11 paients got an excellent result, 24 good and 2 fair,and the total score was 87.0 ± 7.3.

CONCLUSIONFor the Mayo II B comminuted fracture in ulna olecranon, preoperative preparation, intraoperative restoring of the articular surface smooth and reasonable internal fixation, and postoperative rehabilitation actively, can obtain satisfactory clinical effects.

Objective To investigate the clinical and laboratory profiles of a patient with pustular psoriasis-like skin lesion and cerebral palsy due to biotinidase deficiency. Methods A 5 year and 4 month-old boy with biotinidase deficiency was confirmed by urinary organic acid analysis with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS)and biotinidase activity assay of peripheral blood. His clinical features, laboratory findings, treatment and outcome were studied. Results The boy showed difficulty in taking food after birth, gradually eczema and pustules appeared at the age of 2 months, and generalized erythema and intractable pustular psoriasis-like lesion at the age of 8 months. His intellectual development was normal with retardation of locomotor system. He had muscular dystonia at the age of 6 months. Physical examination showed generalized pustular psoriasis-like lesion, generalized paralysis, hypertonic contracture of extremities, sparseness of scalp hair and severe malnutrition. Routine laboratory tests showed a mild anemia, metabolic acidosis and elevation of plasma creatine phosphokinase. Increased excretion of urinary lactate, pyruvate, 3-OH-propionate, propionylglycine, and 3-methylcrontonylglycine were observed. Biotinidase activity of his peripheral blood was below 0.1 pmol/min/3mm (normal 6.3-9.3 pmol/min/3mm). Biotin (10 mg/day) supplementation led to a dramatic recovery of the skin lesion. After the treatment of rehabilitation, his muscle power was also improved gradually. Conclusions Dermatological and neurological manifestations are the main features of biotinidase deficiency. Early diagnosis and biotin administration can greatly improve the clinical symptoms. Generalized pustular psoriasis-like lesion and cerebral palsy of this boy have improved after the supplementation of biotin, but he may be remained wheelchair-dependent because of delayed diagnosis.

The study is to explore the effect of total glucosides of paeony (TGP)on Wnt/β-catenin signal transduction pathway expression in kidney of diabetic rats, and discuss the protection of TGP in diabetic nephropathy and possible mechanism. Ninety male SD rats of 8 weeks age were randomly divided into normal control group (n = 10) and model group (n = 80). Rats of the normal control group were fed with regular diet, while rats of the model group were fed with high-fat high-sugar diet and 4 weeks later were given an intraperitoneal injection of 35 mg x kg(-1) streptozotocin (STZ). The successfully induced type 2 diabetic rat models were then randomly divided into DM group, three TGP (50, 100, 200 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) treatment group and tripterygium wilfordii glycosides (8 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) control group. Rats of DM group and each treatment group were given high-fat high-sugar diet. At week 14, the levels of blood sugar, 24 hour urine protein, serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were tested. The rats were then sacrificed. Renal pathological changes were examined. Renal tissue Wnt-1 and β-catenin expressions were detected by immunohistochemical assay. Wnt-1 mRNA and β-catenin mRNA expression was semi-quantified by RT-PCR. Wnt-1 protein and β-catenin protein expression was semi-quantified by Western blot. The Result show that Wnt-1 and β-catenin expression increased in kidney of high-fat high-sugar induced type 2 diabetic rats. Compared with diabetic group, the level of serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, 24 h urine protein, mean glomerular area and mean glomerular volume were decreased, renal histopathology were improved, expression of Wnt-1 and β-catenin mRNA and protein was reduced in TGP group. Tripterygium wilfordii glycosides had the similar effect. In conclusion, these results showed that Wnt/β-catenin abnormal activation in kidney of type 2 diabetic rats, TGP can improve kidney damage in diabetic rats and delay the development of diabetic nephropathy by inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

A series of surveillance and management actions was taken to minimize out-of-plan re-operations. These actions include: 1) Building and completing the surveillance and management mechanism against unplanned re-operations; 2) Building a real-time surveillance and reporting mechanism; 3) Enhancing quality control and continuous improvement at the operating departments; 4) Enhancing the supervision on regulations implementation by quality control departments of the hospital; 5) Enhancing quality control for medical records; 6) Building a feedback mechanism for surveillance results; 7) Building a penalty and reward mechanism. Efforts for one year and a half on such surveillance and management proved successful, as the incidence of out-of-plan re-operations fell from 1.7% before these actions to 1.0% afterwards.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,minimal invasive operation technique and perioperative management of lateral ventrieular tumors.Methods The clinical characteristics,image diagnosis,surgical approaches and postoperative management and surgical outcomes of 65 consecutive cases of lateral ventricular tumors were retrospectively analyzed.Results In our series,total resection was achieved in 54 cases,and subtotal resection was achieved in 11 cases.Lateral ventricular tumors were mostly found in male and in the left side.Headache caused by increased intracranial pressure was the most common clinical symptom.Ependymocytoma and astrocytic glioma are the most common pathologic diagnosis.Postoperative complications included fever (26 cases),hydrocephalus (9 cases),intraventricular hematoma (7 cases) of which 2 cases were evacuated by craniotomy,epilepsy (7 cases),wound infection (3 cases).Postoperative death was happened in 3 cases.Two of them died of respiratory failure due to postoperative epilepsy.Conclusion Early discovery of lateral ventricle tumors,meticulous operation,subtle micromanipulation and right postoperative treatment are the criticality to improve the rate of total resection of lateral ventricle tumors through microsurgical treatment and reduce postoperative complications and mortality.

Objective: To construct the expression plasmid of a novel gene human NBEAL1 (neurobeachin like 1), and to study its relationship with the pathological grades of glioma. Methods: Total RNA of human glioma cell line U251 was extracted. NBEAL1 expression plasmid pGEX-KG/NBEAL1 was constructed and transferred into E. coli BL21. Recombinant NBEAL1 protein was induced by IPTG and further purified by GST affinity chromatographic column. The purity of recombinant NBEAL1 protein was examined by Western blotting analysis. A NBEAL1 protein specific monoclonal antibody was prepared and was used to study the relationship of NBEAL1 expression with pathological grades of glioma. Results: The NBEAL1 gene fragment was successfully cloned into pGEX-KG expression plasmid and verified by DNA sequencing. The recombinant NBEAL1 protein was expressed in inclusion bodies, with a yield of more than 30% of total bacterial proteins; the purity of purified NBEAL1 protein was above 95%. Western blotting analysis confirmed that the purified protein containing GST tag and NBEAL protein. NBEAL1 protein was lowly expressed in normal brain tissues and highly expressed in low grade glioma tissues; and the expression of NBEAL1 decreased with the increase of glioma malignancy. Conclusion: The NBEAL1 protein has been successfully cloned, expressed and purified. NBEAL1 protein expression in glioma tissues is negatively associated with the pathological grades of glioma.
