ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of hyperbric oxygen (HBO) on infarct volume and relevant mechanism after permanent focal cerebral ischemia in adult rats.MethodsRat model of focal cerebral ischemia induced by intraluminal filament occlusion of middle cerebral artery (MCA) was used. HBO(2.0 ATA) was applied to HBO group. Infarct volume, matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 were detected at 6h, 24h, 48h, 72h,120h and 10d after ischemia.ResultsThe infarct volume obviously decreased at 120h and 10d and expression of MMP-9 lowered at 48—120h in HBO groups. There was no significant change in MMP-2.Conclusion HBO can reduce infarct volume after cerebral ischemia, which may be related to downregulation of MMP-9 levels.

Objective To explore the effect of clinical pathway on the safety in patient with intracranial aneurysms during the perioperative period. Methods A total of 68 patients with intracranial aneurysms who had been hospitalized and treated from July to December 2012 were assigned to a study group and received clinical pathway. And then they were compared with 56 patients who had been treated from January to June (control group). The patients in control group received routine medical care. Then all the patients were evaluated in preoperative waiting duration, incidence of postoperative complications, health education compliance rate, and the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) at discharge. Results Both the incidence rate of cerebral vasospasm and hydrocephalus and the health education compliance rate were improved in the study group (P<0.05), so was the GOS at discharge and 6 months after discharge (P<0.05). Conclusions The clinical pathway management plays a role in guarantee of the safety in patient during the perioperative phase and in the acceleration of postoperative rehabilitation.

Objective: To explore eye tracking movements of patients with depression.Methods:Thirty-one patients with depression were tested by tracking of exploratory eye movement (Type-Ⅳ) before and after treatment (mean interval 34?8 days), at the same time HAMD was applied. Thirty-one normal controls were tested by tracking of exploratory eye movement either.Results:There were significant differences of discriminant analysis between the results of patients and controls (0.52?1.58,0.79?1.44, vs.-1.00?0.85,t=4.40, 5.80, P0.05);Conclusion:There is statistical difference in exploratory eye tracking movements of depressive patients and that of controls. After depression improved, no significant changes were noted between the main indexes of eye tracking movements of the first test and that of the second test.

Objective To analyze CT findings of nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma.Methods The CT findings of 11 nasal NK/T-cell lymphomas, 134 nasal polyps and 24 nasal inverted papillomas were analyzed retrospectively.Fisher exact test was used to compare the differences of the three nasal lesions.Results Compared with the nasal polyps, nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma had a higher occurrence in the unilateral nasal cavity, more presented as nodular mass or mold growth,and more easily to invade nasal vestibule,nasal ala,nasal mucosal,nasopharyngeal wall and causebone destruction.Compared with the inverted papilloma,nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma had a higher incidence of tumor invasion to nasal vestibule, nasal ala, nasopharyngeal cavity, nasal mucosal.Conclusion Nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma is a homogenous tumor and often occurres in the unilateral nasal cavity, which creeps along the lateral wall of the nasal cavity, and causes the damage of nasal mucosal and surrounding soft tissue and slight destruction of bone in the early satge.

Objective To discuss the pathogenesis of cerebral hemorrhage in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods From Jan.2002 to Dec.2004all the 261 hemodialysis patients in changai Hospital were divided into two groups on the basis of with or without cerebral hemorrhage :(1)the control group,(2)the group of cerebral hemorrhage.Clinical data of 261 hemodialysis patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results In the group of cerebral hemorrhage,the incidence of high blood pressure was 81.1%:the blood pressure after medical therapy not up to standard was 83.8%;the usage of ordinary heparin was 78.4%;the average RRF was(3.8?1.9)and those of the control group were 62.5%,52.7%,52.7% and(7.1?3.3).There were significant differences between the two groups.Conclusion The maintenance hemodialysis patients with cerebral hemorrhage result from multiple factors.Positive control of the blood pressure,selection of appropriate anticoagulant and protection of RRF have important clinical significance.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the applicability of 3DMIA software to upper airway modeling in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). METHODS A total of 30 children diagnosed with OSAHS by polysomnography were included in this study. Data regarding upper airway structure were collected via spiral CT while sleeping and awake, from which a three-dimensional model of the upper respiratory tract from the nasopharynx to the supraglottic region using 3DMIA software was constructed. The upper airway volume and airway minimum cross-sectional area were measured employing software algorithms. RESULTS The upper airway volume and airway minimum cross-sectional area of the 30 children during sleep were significantly less than those while awake (P<0.01). CONCLUSION 3DMIA software modeling and software algorithm measurement are more objective than traditional radiology (e.g. Fujioka) with respect to evaluation of the extent of the upper airway narrowing in OSAHS children, and has good applicability to study upper airway morphology and function in children with OSAHS.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Batroxobin and Urokinase on brain of diabetic rats following focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury. To investigate the preventive mechanism of Batroxobin following focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury in diabetic rats after thrombolysis therapy.MethodsDiabetic rat was induced by administrating streptozotocin intraperitoneally. Rat model of focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury induced by intraluminal filament occlusion of middle cerebral artery(MCA) that removed 2h later was used. Batroxobin and Urokinase were administrated intravenously in different groups. Infarct volume,cerebral hemorrhage and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2,MMP-9 were detected at 2h,24h,48h after ischemia and reperfusion injury.ResultsThe significant decrease of infarct volume were observed in Batroxobin and Urokinase groups. There were 5 rats observed cerebral hemorrhage in Urokinase group and no cerebral hemorrhage in Batroxobin group. The number of MMP-2 and MMP-9 positive cells in Batroxobin and Batroxobin Urokinase groups decreased compared with saline and Urokinase groups. ConclusionBatroxobin can decrease the infarct volume significantly without the complication of cerebral hemorrhage after ischemia and reperfusion injury in diabetic rats, which maybe relate to down regulation of the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9.

OBJECTIVETo study the effectiveness of pie-crusting technique in improving the stiff knee.

METHODSFrom February 2012 to December 2013, 13 patients with stiff knee were reviewed retrospectively. There were 6 males and 7 females, ranging in age from 39 to 70 years old (averaged, 55.6 years old). Of the 13 cases, 8 patients had stiffness following fracture (comminuted tibial plateau fracture in 4, femoral supracondylar fracture in 3 and patellar fracture in 1), 5 patients had TKA-related stiffness.

RESULTSA follow-up lasted 8 to 12 months (mean 10 months)in 13 cases. The mean maximum flexion increased from (37 ± 6)° preoperatively to (52 ± 7)° after arthrolysis, and (108 ± 7)° after pie-crusting. At the final follow-up, mean maximum flexion was (105 ± 6)°. According to Judet evaluation system, 10 patients got an excellent result and 3 good. No major complications, such as extensor lag, skin necrosis, deep infection, dislocation of the patella or recurrent stiffness were found.

CONCLUSIONThe percutaneous technique of pie-crusting is a simple, minimally invasive and effective treatment for knee stiffness.
