Analysis for 6 metals (Cd, Zn, Cu, Ni, Pb, Mn) by Atomic absorption spectrophotometer were made on hair samples of healthy 135 in urban area and 130 in rural area who have not dealt with the above metals in their daily working life. Marked variations were found. Samples of urban area contained more cadmium, copper, lead and manganese than those of rural area. No sexual difference in mean value could be observed and the amount of metals in hair did not increase with age. And no age dependency was found. There was a statistically significant correlation between the concentrations of cadmium and lead in both urban and rural people; Pb=1.50 Cd + 6.69 (r = 0.213, p<0.05) in urban area. Pb=1.44 Cd + 3.67 (r = 0.327, p<0.001) in rural area.

A lot of children with congenital heart disease have an abnormal development of nervous system. A variety of biochemical and physical examination indices can be used to predict adverse outcome of neurodevelopment caused by congenital heart disease and they contribute to early intervention and improvement of neurodevelopmental disorders. In recent years, new progresses in the laboratory tests, neurological physiccal examination and perioperative management of the neurodevelopmental abnormalities caused by congenital heart disease have been made. The predictive factors of abnormal neurodevelopment caused by congenital heart disease were reviewed in this article.

In all enterprises of Korea employing workers more than five, employees have a duty of conducting a periodic health screening for improvement and maintaining healthful living and working conditions of employees. The health screening is performed annually in line workers and biennially in table workers under the supervision of the government. But there are some argument to the health screening programme in view of effectiveness, efficiency, reliability and etc. In order to obtain basic reference materials for increasing the efficiency of periodic health screening programme for workers and understand the attitude of health screening institutions and enterprises toward the periodic health screening, mail questionnaire survey was conducted in July 1987. The questionnaire went to 950 health screening institutions and 700 enterprises in whole land but they were returned from 254 health institutions and 187 enterprises, which were analyzed. The results were as follows: 1) The attitude of the respondents toward the necessity and benefit of the periodic health screening was showed highly positive responses in both of screening institutions and enterprises, and it was more positive in screening institutions. The attitude toward the affirmative and the contentment was showed less positive than that of the necessity and benefit. 2) The respondent recognized may problems on regard to the screening programme. The health screening institutions lie in the state of competition with other institutions for undertaking the screening programme. 3) One of major complaints from enterprises was the lack of sincerity in performing the screening programme. They wanted more practical and reliable health screening examination rather than showy one. 4) Health screening institutions and enterprises showed some mutual contradictions in the matter of screening fee, and so the screening fee should be adjusted to the appropriate cost.

Objective To explore the relationship between high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA and biological behavior of cervical carcinoma. Methods Sixty-six patients of cervical carcinoma with cytological examinations and 103 patients of cervical carcinoma followed-up after surgical operation were selected for high-risk HPV DNA test with second-generation hybrid capture technique (HC2 Ⅱ). Results ①HPV DNA was positive in 62 and negative in four of 66 patients of cervical carcinoma with an overall prevalence of 94%. ②There was no significant difference in positive HPV DNA of patients with cervical carcinoma between their varied clinical stages and pathologic grades. But, HPV positivity and HPV DNA load in patients with myometrial invasion were higher than those in patients without invasion (P < 0. 05).③ HPV DNA conversed to negative in 99 of 103 patients (96%) with cervical carcinoma after surgical operation from positivity before operation. Conclusions High-risk HPV infection may correlate with angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis of cervical carcinoma and HC2 Ⅱ can be used as an effective method to detect HPV DNA.

Penile melanosis is a new disease entity which is benign and different from pigmented nevus and acral lentiginous melanoma in situ. A 20-year-old man had hyperpigmented macules on the glans penis and penile shaft for 5 years. Clinical and histologic findings were consistent with penile melanosis and giant melanosome complexes were observed ultrastructurally.

Objective To observe the anesthesia effect of dezocine and pentazocine in painless artificial abortion, in order to provide a basis for safe use of anesthesia drug in clinical practice. Methods Totally,300 patients undergoing painless artificial abortion were included in this study.The patients were randomly divided into four groups: group A (simple propofo), group B ( propofol combined with fentanyl) ,group C ( propofol combined with dezocine) and group D ( propofol combined with pentazocine)(n=75 each).Four groups of patients were intravenously injected with propofol (1-1.5 mg?kg-1) according to the situation in operation when necessary to maintain anesthesia effect.Heart rate (HR),mean arterial pressure (MAP),arterial oxygen saturation ( SpO2 ) and respiratory frequency were observed and recorded before induction,after induction,at the beginning of the operation,during operation and anesthesia recovery. The onset time of anesthesia, the recovery time, the recovery time of orientation,the postoperative pain score and the incidence of adverse reaction of the four groups were recorded. Results All of the patients achieved good effects of anesthesia in operations. There was no significant difference in the onset time of anesthesia (P>0.05).Awakening time and time of orientation recovery in groups B,C and D were significantly shorter than those in group A (P<0.05).The dosages of propofol in group C and D were significantly less than those in group A and B (P<0.05).The changes of HR,MAP,SpO2 and respiratory frequency after induction were not significantly different in group B,C and D (P>0.05),but the changes were relatively stable as compared with group A (P<0.05).The rates of adverse reactions in group B,C and D were significantly lower than that in group A (P<0.05).The incidence rates of respiratory depression,nausea and vomiting in group C and D were significantly lower than those in group A and B (P<0.05).The postoperative pain scores of VAS in group B,C and D were significantly lower than that of group A (P<0.05). Conclusion The analgesia effects of dezocine and pentazocine are similar.Application of them can reduce the dosage of propofol and shorten the anesthesia awakening time in painless artificial abortion,at the same time they have less adverse reactions,and they are safe and effective to be used in clinical anesthesia.

Objective:To explore the correlation among ECG indexes,myocardial enzyme peak and short term cardi-ac function in patients with acute anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Methods:A total of 150 pa-tients with acute anterior STEMI were selected from our hospital.According to left ventricular ejection fraction af-ter three months (3m LVEF),they were divided into cardiac dysfunction group (n=78,LVEF<50%)and normal cardiac function group (n= 72,LVEF≥ 50%).Following indexes were compared between two groups,including sum of ST elevation extent (ΣST),R wave (ΣR),Q wave (ΣQ),maximum value of ST elevation (STm)and Q wave (Qm)etc.on infarct related leads,and peak value of creatine kinase (CKm),CK isoenzyme (CK-MBm)and cardiac troponin T (cTnTm)etc.Results:Compared with normal cardiac function group,there were significant rise in ΣST,ΣQ,STm,Qm,CKm,CK-MBm,cTnTm,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd),3mLVEDd and significant reduction in ΣR and LVEF,3mLVEF in cardiac dysfunction group,P <0.05 or <0.01;Spearman correlation analysis indicated that ΣST,ΣQ,STm,Qm,CKm,CK-MBm and cTnTm were positively correlated with 3m LVEDd (r =0.18~0.63,P <0.05 or <0.01),and inversely correlated with 3m LVEF (r =-0.88~-0.42, P <0.01 all).ΣR was inversely correlated with LVEDd and 3m LVEDd (r =-0.46、-0.51,P <0.01 both),and positively correlated with LVEF and 3m LVEF (r =0.81,0.71,P <0.01 both).Conclusion:In patients with ante-rior STEMI,the higher ST elevation,the higher Q wave,the lower R wave,the higher myocardial enzyme peak is, the poorer short term cardiac function is.

Objective To compare clinical effects between totally video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and conventional median sternotomy for mitral valve replacement . Methods From March 2012 to October 2013, patients with simple mitral valve disease underwent mitral valve replacement through either right chest port -access totally video-assisted thoracoscopy ( thoracoscopy group, n=110) or conventional median sternotomy (conventional group, n=128).The time of operation, cross-clamp ascending aorta, cardiopulmonary bypass , postoperative mechanical ventilation , intensive care unit stay , postoperative hospital stay , and volume of postoperative chest drainage were compared between the two groups .All the patients were followed after 6 months postoperatively for evaluating the condition of valve regurgitation under echocardiography . Results Between the thoracoscopy group and the conventional group, no significant differences were found in time of operation [(256.2 ±28.5) min vs.(251.2 ±30.0) min, t=1.312, P=0.191], cross-clamp time of the ascending aorta [(40.0 ±2.7) min vs.(39.4 ±2.7) min, t=1.709, P=0.089], and cardiopulmonary bypass time [(74.2 ±4.1) min vs.(73.7 ±4.9) min, t =0.846, P =0.399].As compared to the conventional group, the thoracoscopy group had significantly shorter time of postoperative mechanical ventilation [(716.4 ±79.1) min vs.(811.9 ±58.8) min, t=-10.657, P=0.000], shorter length of intensive care unit stay [(26.2 ±3.6) h vs.(29.3 ±4.7) h, t=-5.640, P=0.000], shorter length of postoperative hospital stay [(9.6 ±1.2) d vs.(10.9 ±2.5) d, t=-4.982, P=0.000], and less volume of postoperative chest drainage [(328.1 ±83.2) ml vs.(561.3 ±143.9) ml, t=-14.978, P=0.000], respectively .No death happened in the two groups . No mitral valve regurgitation was seen during follow-ups at 6 months postoperatively . Conclusion For patients undergoing mitral valve replacement , totally video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is superior to conventional median sternotomy with respect to surgical trauma .
