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 explore clinical value of the single-hale video-assisted thoracoscope surgery in lung surgery.Methods In our hospital from January 2015 to June 2015, a total of 60 patients was performed with lung partial resection line thoracoscope surgery, 28 routine puckering traditional video-assisted thoracoscope treatment, in the same period 32 underwent video-assisted thoracoscope surgery.Intraoperative blood loss, operating time, postoperative pain degree, and postoperative chest such as flow rate were compared between two groups.Results Two groups of patients had no perioperative death and severe complications.Intraoperative blood loss and operating time were no significant significance between single-and double-hole operation groups.The degree of postoperative pain score was (0.8 ± 0.5) in puckering thoracoscope group, and (1.2 ± 0.6) in traditional thoracoscope group, with significant difference (P =0.009).Conclusions Single-hole thoracoscope surgery in the treatment of lung diseases is feasible and reliable compared to traditional thoracoscope surgery, and patients can effectively reduce postoperative pain, and improve the quality of life.

Objective To establish the canine model of esophageal variees caused by portal hyper-tension. Methods The model was established in 12 dogs with a side-to-side portacaval shunt, an ameroid constrictor around the portal vein and double ligation and cross suture of the cephalic part of the inferior vena cava (IVC), and the development of esophageal varices was confirmed 6 weeks later by endoscopy and portal vein angiography. Results The mean pre- and postoperative portal pressure were (11.0 ± 1.1) mm Hg and (22. 9 ± 1.2) nun Hg, respectively (P =0. 010). Endoscopy detected mild to moderate esophageal varices in all dogs, which was confirmed by portal vein angiography, and varices was also seen in abdominal wall. Conclusion Canine model of esophageal varices induced by portal hypertension can be established with the procedure.

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.

BACKGROUND:The main way for long-segmental ureteral reconstruction may cause a lot of traumas and complications. Therefore, to seek a new repair method is urgent. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility of a tissue-engineered tubular graft for ureteral reconstruction. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and smooth muscle cels of rabbits were seeded into the two surfaces of bladder acelular matrix and cultivated for 7 days. Then the graft was used to prepare a 4-cm long tissue-engineered tubular graft, which was regarded as experimental group. Smooth muscle cels seeded onto the bladder acelular matrix was used to construct the tissue-engineered tubular graft as control group. Twenty-five New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=5), and two kinds of tubular grafts covered with omentum were implanted into the two groups, respectively, for repair of ureteral defects. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemical detection were performed at 2, 4, 8 weeks after implantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the experimental group, hematoxylin-eosin staining showed epithelial coverage and muscle fibers on the lumen of tissue-engineered tubular grafts at 8 weeks after implantation; immunohistochemistry showed that anti-AE1/AE3 antibody and anti-uroplakinⅢa antibody were positive, confirming that there were mature epithelial cels on the lumen of tissue-engineered tubular grafts. In the control group, five rabbits were dead within 2 weeks after removal of ureteral scaffold, and autopsy showed scar formation inside the graft and severe hydronephrosis. These results demonstrate that it is feasible to construct the tissue-engineered tubular graft using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and smooth muscle cels into the bladder acelular matrix for ureteral reconstruction. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels can potentialy promote urothelial regeneration.

Sperm ultrastructural abnormalities are often associated with sperm motility, the integrity of genetic material, and the fertilization potential. The investigation of sperm ultrastructural abnormalities is based on the evolution of microscopy techniques. In his paper, we review the improvement of the microscopy techniques and the ultrastructure of several specific morphological defects and he apoptotic spermatogenic cells in order to expound the significance of sperm ultrastructural observation in clinical practice. We deem it necessary to analyze the sperm ultrastructure before exploring the pathology and adopting assisted reproductive technology for some special patients with teratozoospermia.

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.
