Journal of Forensic Medicine 2013;29(6):414-418
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the applicability of Capacity of Sexual Self-defense Assessment Scale (CSSAS) in psychiatric patients without mental retardation.
METHODS:
Eighty-seven cases required for assessment of the capacity of sexual self-defense were collected and evaluated by trained professionals according to CSSAS, and the results were compared to the experts' opinions.
RESULTS:
The scores of three grades of capacity of sexual self-defense (none, limited and whole) were 5.97 +/- 5.83, 32.22 +/- 10.15 and 61.60 +/- 13.02, respectively, which were statistically significant among them (P < 0.01). The correlation coefficients between items and total score were 0.59 to 0.91, the Cronbach's alpha value was 0.96, the spilt half Cronbach's alpha value were 0.94 and 0.91, respectively, and the relation coefficient between them was 0.94. According to the original cut off scores, the Kappa value between scale results and experts' opinions was 0.32 (P < 0.01). By redefining the cut off scores, the Kappa value was improved to 0.84 (P < 0.01). Two factors were extracted by means of the factor analysis. The explanation rates of variance were 46.15% and 28.93%, respectively. The accuracy of retrospective cumulative square was 94.30%.
CONCLUSION
The CSSAS could be applied in the psychiatric expertise of the capacity of sexual self-defense in psychiatric patients without mental retardation; however, the cut off scores and the factor weight should be redefined.

Objective To investigate the localization and surgical outcome of epileptogenic nidus of post-traumatic epilepsy. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 62 patients with post-traumatic epilepsy treated microsurgicallly from November 2005 to May 2009. There were 48 males and 14 females, at age range from 11 to 48 years old (average 28.8 years old). The epileptogenic nidus in 59 patients was localized based on clinical manifestations, visual electroencephalography (V-EEC) imaging and electrophysiological findings and that in three patients localized by implanted intracranial electrodes. Under electrocorticogram (ECoG) monitoring, we resected cerebral malacia in 36 patients, removed both malacia and epileptogenic nidus in 15, and partially resected cerebral malacia combined with cortex thermocoagulation in 11. Results The follow-up for 6-33 months showed that there were 32 patients at grade Ⅰ , 17 at grade Ⅱ , nine at grade Ⅲ and four at grade Ⅳ according to Engel classification system. Conclusion V-EEG is an important method for pre-operative localization of epileptogenic nidus of post-traumatic epilepsy. Microsurgical management can attain favorable outcome under ECoG monitoring.

BACKGROUND:Urothelial cells are important seeding cells for urinary tissue engineering, but they are difficult to proliferate in vitro. Several studies have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into urothelial cells, but how these cells functions in vivo in epithelium generation after implantation, and the application of these cells in tissue engineering, are rarely studied. OBJECTIVE:To explore the isolation and proliferation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells that are induced into urothelial cells in combination with rabbit bladder acellular matrix to construct tissue-engineered grafts, and to assess the effect of the induced cells as seeding cells. METHODS:Twelve 8-week-old male New Zealand white rabbits were chosen to obtain bone marrow samples through tibia puncture, and to isolate bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by density gradient centrifugation. Then the fourth or fifth generation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in conditioned medium for 2 weeks, and then identified by PCR and immunofluorescence. After that, the induced cells were seeded on rabbit bladder acellular matrix to construct tissue-engineered grafts for bladder repairing. Another 12 rabbits served as control group, and urothelial cells combined with bladder acellular matrix was used for bladder repairing. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were successful y cultured and proliferated in vitro. After induction, PCR detection suggested that stem cellmarker (CD44) expression decreased, and epithelial cellmarker (UP1a) expression increased in the induced cells. Immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that the induced cells rather than bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were positive for specific urothelial marker, UP1a. A stable continuous epithelial layer was observed on tissue-engineered grafts constructed by induced cells after 2 weeks, similar to the grafts built by urothelial cells. Induced bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into urothelial cells that can be used as seeding cells for urinary tissue engineering, which may be another choice out of urothelial cells.

Some grain sprouts herbs recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010, including Oryzae Fructus Germinatus, Setariae Fructus Germinatus and Hordei Fructus Germinatus, together with their adulterants, were identified by ITS2 sequences. The genomic DNA were extracted, their ITS2 sequences were amplified, and purified PCR products were
sequenced. Sequences were assembled using the CodonCode Aligner. The genetic distances, variable sites and the neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree were computed by MEGA 6.0 in accordance with the Kimura 2-Parameter (K2P) model. The results showed that their intraspecific genetic distances were all much lower than the interspecific ones of themselves and their adulterants. The NJ tree based on ITS2 sequence indicated that Oryza sativa, Setariaitalica, and Hordeum vulgar formed one monophyletic clade respectively, in addition any one of the grain sprouts herbs and its adulterants could be distinguished clearly. Therefore, ITS2 sequence is suitable to be as a barcode to identify the grain sprouts herbs and their adulterants.

Objective:To analyze the causes of early dislocation after total hip replacement and explore its preventions and treatments. Methods:From July 1997 to October 2002, there were 12 cases of dislocation after total hip replacement. The strength of their hip abductor was tested and the X-ray films were measured. If closed reduction failed, capsular repairing was used. Results:There were 3 cases of malposition, 5 cases of abnormal soft-tissue tension, 3 cases of malposition and abnormal soft-tissue tension and 1 case of over motion. Close reduction was succeeded in 5 cases, 7 cases failed to close reduction, and were treated successfully by repairing the hip capsule and readjusted the prostheses when necessary. Conclusion:Abnormal soft-tissue tension has become the main causes of dislocation after total hip replacement. Those cases in which closed reduction has failed can be treated by repairing the hip capsule.
