Objective To study treatment of Vancouver type-B periprosthetie femoral fractures after total hip arthroplasty.Methods There were 10 cases with Vancouver type-B periprosthetic femo- ral fractures after total hip arthroplasty being treatment,including three cases with type-B1 undergone open reduction and allografi strut to fix the fracture,two with type-B2 undergone open reduction and revi- sion with a long stem and five with type-B3 undergone open reduction,revision with a long stem and al- lograft strut to restore bone.The mean duration of follow-up was 27 months(8-36 months).The Harris Hip Score and radiographs were used to evaluate the outcome.Failure of the procedure.was defined as the need for revision surgery because nonunion of fracture,implant loosening,and infection.Results All cases obtained successful fracture healing,with no stem loosening or infection.Of all,nine cases were a- ble to walk by themselves but one needed aid in walking.The Harris Hip Score was 83 at the time of the final follow-up.Osseous union of the allograft to the host femur occurred in eight hips and mild graft re- sorption in two.The cotex thickness of host femur was increased more than 3-5 mm.Conclusions Stem stability and bone quality are important factors determining the outcome of treatment for periprosthet- ic femoral fracture after hip arthroplasty.Good outcome can be achieved by adopting different treatments according to sub-classification of Vancouver type-B fractures.The allograft strut for the treatment of a Vancouver type-B periprosthetic femoral fracture can not only provide fixation,but also make fracture heal fast and augment bone mass and strength.

Objective To investigate the executive function of children with different sports training. Methods Forty children with Ping-Pong training (Ping-Pong group) and 41 children with swimming training (swimming group), aged 6-9 years, completed GO/NOGO task. Behavioral data (reaction time and accuracy) and event related potential component N2 were collected and analyzed. Results The reaction time was significantly faster and accuracy significantly lower of GO task and NOGO task in swimming group than in Ping-Pong group (P<0.05 and P<0.01). There were significant differences in the amplitude of NOGO-N2 on site CPz between swimming group and Ping-Pong group[(-11.36±9.4) μV vs (-7.55±7.99) μV, P<0.05]. Conclusion The inhibitory function of children with Ping-Pong training is stronger than those with swimming training.

Objective To explore the effects of forepaw sensorimotor deprivation in early life on hippocampus-dependent spatial reference learning and memory in rats. Methods Newborn SD rats were randomly assigned to experiment group (deprivation of forepaw sensorimotor function, n=53) and control group(n=55). Rats of postnatal day 13 (PN13) in experiment group were seleeted, and models of forepaw sensorimotor deprivation were established by microsurgical technique. Open field tests and Morris water maze tests were performed during the time periods of PN25(PN21-31), PN35 (PN31-39), PN45(PN41-50) and PN60(PN56-64) to evaluate the locomotor activity and spatial reference learning and memory, respectively. Results In open field tests, there was no significant difference in parameters of locomotor activity and exploratory behavior between the two groups (P>0.05). In Morris water maze tests, eontrol group performed significantly better than experiment group during training sessions and probe tests on PN25 and PN35 (P<0.05). While on PN45, although there was no significant difference between the two groups during training sessions, control group performed significantly better than experiment group during probe tests (P<0.05). Conclusion The deprivation of forepaw sensorimotor in early life has no signifieant effect on the locomotor activity and exploratory behavior of rats, but can impair the spatial reference learning and memory.

Objective To investigate the effects of television-watching and computer-using on sleep/wake patterns, sleep duration and sleep problems of school-aged children in Shanghai. Methods A total of 4 108 school-aged children from 10 primary schools of Shanghai were enrolled by multi-stage cluster sampling and surveyed by questionnaires. The information of television-watching and computer-using, family and personal condition was investigated by self-prepared questionnaire, and the Chinese version of Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire was employed to survey the sleep behaviors of children. The effects of television-watching and computer-using on sleep/wake patterns, sleep duration and sleep problems were analyzed by multiple linear regression analysis and Logistic regression analysis. Results The percentage of children who watched television≥2 h per day was 4.1% during weekdays, and that came to 49.2% during weekends. In terms of frequency of computer-using, most children reported "rarely" (88.2%, 0-1 time/week), followed by "often" (11.0%, 2-4 times/ week) and "usually" (0.8%, 5-7 times/week). With the age increase, the percentages of children who watched television≥2 h per day and those who "often" used computer gradually increased. It was revealed by multiple linear regression analysis and Logistic regression analysis that television-watching and computer-using were not only positively correlated with later bedtime, later wake time and shorter sleep duration but also significantly associated with sleep problems such as bedtime resistance, sleep onset delay, sleep duration disorder, sleep anxiety and parasomnia. Conclusion Television-watching and computer-using exert influences on sleep behaviors of sleep/wake patterns, sleep duration and sleep problems. Concerns about the potential negative effects of television-watching and computer-using on sleep behaviors may help to promote healthy sleep patterns and improve sleep quality.

Objective To investigate the health literacy about infectious diseases in urban and rural residents in Huai'an city and to provide suggestions for the intervention of health literacy in the residents.Methods Using multi -stage stratified cluster random sampling method,4000 residents aged 15 -69 years old from 8 counties were selected and investigations were carried out by Chinese Residents Health Literacy Questionnaire (2012).Results The awareness rate of health literacy about infectious diseases was 20.62%,which was slightly higher than the national level.The awareness rate of urban residents was higher than that of rural residents (63.38% vs.67.12% respectively),male residents higher than female residents (68.78% vs.62.75% respectively)and people over15 and less 30 years old higher than other age groups.There were significant differences of awareness rate among different education levels and different occupations (P<0.05 ).The awareness rates of"tuberculosis infection","the correct treatment of cough and sneeze"were relatively low. Conclusion Effective measures should focus on different groups of people,especially for the elderly,women and people with low level of education.

OBJECTIVETo study the prevalence of internet use and internet addiction in adolescents of Shanghai.

METHODFrom September to October 2007, a total of 5135 adolescents from 16 middle schools of 6 districts of Shanghai took part in the epidemiological study by a cross-sectional survey and 5123 adolescents finally enrolled in the study. A questionnaire of "DRM Adolescent Internet Use 52 Scale" was administrated to investigate the prevalence of internet use and internet addiction in adolescents of Shanghai. On this scale of 5-point rating, the scale includes seven parts of contents as tolerance, abstinence reaction, planning ability, self-control ability, whenness, sociability and hazard.

RESULTSThe rate of internet use among the surveyed adolescents was 94.32% (4673/5123), among which the incidence rate of internet addiction was 8.78% (450/5123). Boys, senior middle-school students were more susceptible to internet addiction than girls and junior middle-school students (male scores 122.42+/-43.46, female scores 116.92+/-38.10, F=23.22, P=0.00; senior middle-school students 125.24+/-39.02, junior middle-school students 110.30+/-42.35, F=164.68, P=0.00). Students from vocational senior middle-school were most susceptible (junior middle-school students 110.30+/-42.35, ordinary senior middle-school students 122.83+/-40.99, key senior middle-school students 120.05+/-37.87, vocational senior middle-school students 133.37+/-36.84, F=34.44, P=0.00). The 2nd grade students of senior middle-school have the highest risk for internet-addiction.

CONCLUSIONThe prevalence of internet use and internet addiction in adolescents of Shanghai should be comparatively high in China, which indicates that great attention should be paid to the prevention and control.

OBJECTIVETo observe clinical results for reconstruction of periprosthetic fractures of hip with cortical bone plates allografts by deep-freezing and ethylene oxide treatment.

METHODSSeven patients with periprosthetic fractures of hip underwent cortical bone plates allografts by deep-freezing at -70 degrees C after being treatment of 48 degrees C ethylene oxide. And evaluate clinical outcome by examining T lymphocytes, Harris scores, X-rays photograph, and bone scintigraphy.

RESULTSThere were not activity of immune rejection and infection in all patients. Harris scores of patients increased 21, 32, 40, 40 scores at 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery. T-lymphocytes, antibody and immunocomplex in blood was normal postoperation. X-ray film indicated that fracture was healed at 3 months and there was partially bone conjunction between allograft strut and host bone. There was incorporation of 85% allograft strut to host bone, and 15% allograft strut was partially absorbed at 12 months after surgery. The size of femur of host was added 3 mm to 5 mm, averaged 4.3 mm at 12 months postoperation. Density of 80% allograft plates was as same as host bone after remodeling and the absorbtion of 10% allograft plates stopped at 24 months after surgery. There was thick of nuclein in the area of allograft cortical bone plates by bone scintigraphy examination at 3 months postoperation, and the thick of nuclein was stronger at 6, and 12 months after surgery.

CONCLUSIONAllograft cortical bone plates by deep frozen at -70 degrees C after being treatment of 48 degrees C ethylene oxide is suitable for mechanical fixation and biological bone transplantation, and it can increase bone reservation, augment strength of femur once the allograft strut incorporates to host bone, and avoid removing metal implant in second operation when being applied into reconstruction femoral fracture in joint replacement.

OBJECTIVEChina has undergone massive socioeconomic change during the past several years, and its impact on children's sleep is still unrecognized. Shanghai, as one of typical economically fast-developing cities, was chosen as observational city in this study, which was designed to explore trends in sleep quality in Shanghai school-aged children and related high risk factors on sleep quality.

METHODTotally 884 fifth grade school-aged students were sampled by stratified cluster random sampling method from 10 primary schools of Shanghai in 2005, then four years later in 2009, 2161 same grade students were sampled from the same schools. Chinese version of Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) was used to evaluate 8 sleep quality parameters among those children, and high risk factors on school-aged children's sleep quality were investigated as well.

RESULTThe prevalence of poor sleep quality decreased from 29.2% in 2005 to 27.9% in 2009, and among 8 sleep quality parameters, bedtime resistance decreased from 33.1% to 28.7%, sleep anxiety from 50.6% to 39.8%, night waking from 25.2% to 21.5%, and parasomnia from 51.2% to 45.8%. The factors, such as heavier homework burden, longer daily computer use, bright light during sleep, cosleeping, existence of chronic disease and irregular sleep habits of parents, were associated with poor sleep quality of school-aged children after adjusting for children's age, gender, and family social-economic status.

CONCLUSIONPart of sleep quality parameters improved during the past 4 years, but current situation is still tough with more than 1/4 poor sleep quality children. Helping children to develop good sleep hygiene as well as educating parents how to shape children's regular sleep habits might be effective methods to improve children's sleep quality.

OBJECTIVETo understand prevalence of sleep problems and presence of improper sleep habit of children aged one to 23 months in Shanghai, and to identify their related factors.

METHODSTotally, 1 252 normal children, without severe illness and abnormal delivery history, aged one to 23 months were randomly selected from five districts of Shanghai. Under strict quality control system, their parents were interviewed with questionnaire to look into their familial and social environment, as well as sleep-related factors.

RESULTSFully-completed information was obtained in 1 129 of 1 252 children, with a response rate of 90.18%. Prevalence of sleep problems in children was 65.90% in Shanghai, remarkably higher than in the other areas. Prevalence of nightmare, level of fright at night, snore and sleep apnea in boys were significantly higher than those in girls. Prevalence of improper sleep habit in children was also higher, including sleeping with their parents, parental presence at sleep onset and irregular sleep time. Main risk factors related to children's sleep problems were maternal anxiety, children's irregular sleep time, parental presence at sleep onset, difficulty-type temperament and maternal poor sleep during pregnancy.

CONCLUSIONSIn Shanghai, prevalence of sleep problems in children aged one to 23 months was relatively higher and main risk factors for them were social, cultural and familial environment, especially negligence of cultivating proper sleep habit and parental improper response to children's poor sleep behavior.

OBJECTIVETo survey the sleep habits (bedtime, wake time), sleep duration, and sleep problems in school-age children of China.

METHODFrom November to December, 2005, a total of 19,299 school-age children from 55 elementary schools of 9 cities entered the study by a cross-sectional survey. A parent-administered questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire were applied to investigate children's sociodemographic characteristics and sleep behaviors, respectively.

RESULTSThe mean sleep duration was 9 hours and 10 minutes (9:10, SD:48 min) during the weekdays and 9:48 (SD: 63 min) during the weekends. In about 71.4% and 41.8% school-aged children the sleep duration per day did not reach the lowest criterion of 10 hours recommended by the Ministry of Education of China during weekdays and weekends, respectively. Sleep problems were common with prevalence ranging from 14.5% for sleep-disordered breathing to 75.3% for daytime sleepiness. Parasomnia (chi(2) = 13.76, P < 0.01) and sleep-disordered breathing (chi(2) = 119.83, P < 0.01) were more prevalent in boys than in girls; however, sleep anxiety was more prevalent in girls than in boys (chi(2) = 19.42, P < 0.01). Except for night waking, other types of sleep problems were significantly associated with age.

CONCLUSIONSInadequate sleep duration and sleep problems prevail among school-age children, which indicates that children's sleep health may be a major public health concern in China.
