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.

Objectives To observe the clinical efficacy of combined treatment with montelukast and intranasal steroid for chronic adenoid hypertrophy in children. Methods 47 children with chronic adenoid hypertrophy were selected and ran-domly divided into drug combination group (n=23) treated with montelukast combined with intranasal steroids for two months and control group (n=24) treated with intranasal steroids only for two months. Clinical efficacy was compared between two groups by clinical score and the result of fibronasopharyngoscopy. Results The clinical scores were 0 (0, 1.0) and 0(0, 0) at 2 weeks and 2 months after treatment in combination group, and 1.0 (1.0, 1.0) and 0 (0, 1.0) in control group. There were sig-nificant differences between two groups (Z=2.404, P<0.05;Z=2.069, P<0.05). Conclusions The clinical efficacy of combined treatment with Montelukast and intranasal steroid is better than that of treatment with intranasal steroid only in children with chronic adenoid hypertrophy.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the diagnostic value of micro-movement sensitive mattress sleep monitoring system (MSMSMS) in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.
METHODSSixty-five children with the complaint of sleep disorder were collected and detected by polysomnography and micro-sensitive mattress sleep monitoring system overnight at least seven hours. The date from two instruments were analyzed by computer automatically and then modified by two professional staff double-blind separately. The data about the diagnosis of sleep breath disorder and other sleep physiology information were compared between the two groups.
RESULTSSixty-one cases finished the study finally. The mean age of these children was (7.0 ± 2.7) and the youngest was 3 years old, maximum was 13 years old, male children 46 cases, female patients 15 cases, body mass index (BMI) median [25 quantile; 75 quantile] 16.00 [14.80;17.5]kg/m2. Mean PSG measured apnea hypopnea index (AHI) was 4.50 [2.30;10.15] times/h, and mean MSMSMS AHI was 3.63 [2.56; 6.43] times/h. There was a significant correlation between PSG AHI and AHI by MSMSMS (r = 0.935, P < 0.01). A Bland-Altamplot of PSG AHI and MSMSMS AHI was also used to assess the accuracy of MSMSMS. 95. 1% of the data was fallen in the 95% consistency areas. For AHI--5 times/h and nighttime minimum oxygen < 91% or obstructive apnea index( OAT) > 1 time/h and nighttime minimum oxygen saturation < 91 % as threshold value, the MSMSMS diagnosing sensitivity and specificity were 82.9% and 92.3%. The misdiagnosis rate and missed diagnosis rate were 7.7% and 17.1%.
CONCLUSIONSThe MSMSMS offer a simple and comfortable method to monitor children's sleep. It improves the compliance in the process of sleep monitoring. Besides, as a diagnostic tool in the diagnosis of OSAHS on children has a high credibility in AHI.

BACKGROUND:Until now, there is yet no complete recovery from spinal cord injury in terms of structure and functional recoveries. Neurotrophic factors have limited effects on nerve regeneration. Currently, stem cel transplantation may be an effective way to repair spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE:To separate, cultivate and purify mouse spinal cord-derived neural stem cels using serum-free suspension method folowed by morphological observation, immunofluorescence technology and multi-lineage differentiation experiments.
METHODS:By using the suspension culture method, mouse spinal cord-derived neural stem cels at embryonic day 13.5 were cultured and purified. Cel morphology changes were observed under inverted microscope. Cel proliferation ability was detected using cel counting kit-8. Nestin and Sox2 expression was detected by immunofluorescence technology. Multilineage differentiation of spinal cord-derived neural stem cels at passage 4 was detected by natural differentiation method in order to prove the differentiation ability.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Serum-free medium suspension culture method was successfuly applied to separate spinal cord-derived neural stem cels. Cultured cels had good proliferative ability and highly expressed Nestin and Sox2 that was in accordance with the results of DAPI nucleus staining, suggesting the high purity of cels. After induction, the cels could express both Tuj1 and GFAP, indicating the cels had good differentiation potential. This experiment has successfuly established the isolation, culture, identification system of spinal cord-derived neural stem cels, providing experimental basis for subsequent studies of neural stem cels.
