OBJECTIVE To observe Staphylococcus aureus(SAU) infection at high altitude and plain after gunshot injury. METHODS Used 7.62mm bullets to injure posterior limbs of piglets with the same age.We got contusing tissues in different time after injury,to make bacteriologic examination,identify and make a statistic analysis of SAU. RESULTS The main infection was caused by SAU after gunshot injury in two regions.From contusing tissues in two regions,the rate of contamination caused by SAU in Chongqing and Lasa was 48% and 18%,respectively.The time of SAU colonization was 3 hours at high altitude,and less 3 hours at plain.The velocity of reproduction of SAU at high altitude for 12 hours was 5-6 passages,and at plain was 4-6 passages for 3-6h.The time of remaining relative steady state between tissues and germs was 48 hours at high aititude and 24 hours at plain.The difference of the number of SAU between two regions after injury 3-36 hours was significant,But after 36 hours the difference was unsignificant. CONCLUSIONS At high altitude region,SAU is the main germ that causes contamination after gunshot injury,the velocity of reproduction of SAU is slower than that at plain,the time of infection is delayed obviously.

Objective To explore the belongingness,name and clinical significance of a sort of osteal structure variation (OSV) posterior,outboard and superior to the ditch of vertebral artery of atlas.Methods 23 cases of OSV were collected among 426 patients underwent MSCT intracranial and cervical angiography with volume rendering technique (VRT)to notice the pier point,shape and direction of protuberance,and the relation and influence to the vertebral artery.Results The incidence of OSV was 5.40%(23/426) in which 31 sides were detected,and 1 5 cases in unilateral and 8 cases in bilateral.Simple type was showed at 1 9 sides,compound type at 12 sides with other ponticulus.According to the shape of the ponticulus,simple root was seen at 1 7 sides(13 inferior root and 4 lat-erial root),opposite beaked at 5 sides,complete type at 9 sides.OSV was located at posterior,outbord and superior to the ditch of vertebral artery of atlas and closed to the vertebral artery.The vertebral artery was influenced by OSV as following:in simple OSV vertebral artery stenosis was seen at 4 sides in which unite convulsion was showed at one side;in compound OSV vertebral artery ste-nosis was seen at 5 sides,in which unite convulsion was showed at 2 sides.Conclusion OSV is similar to ponticulus posticus(PP)and ponticulus lateralis(PL),and has similarly importance clinical significance,and should belong to the ponticulus of atlas,and to be named as ponticulus borderland(PB).

Objective To observe the clinical effect of drug moxibustion in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods A total of 90 patients with acute myocardial infarction in Taihe Hospital emergency department were randomly divided into the control group (n=30) and the treatment group (n=90).The patients in the control group were treated with routine western medicine, while treatment group was treated with drug moxibustion on the basis of the control group treatment. Both groups were treated for 6 weeks.The pulmonary function was assessed, and the clinical effect was evaluated.Results The total effective rate was 86.7% (52/60) in the treatment group and 70.0% (21/30) in the control group. The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (χ2=6.059,P=0.048). After treatment, the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) (1.07 ± 0.3l L vs. 1.05 ± 0.41 L,t=15.272) in the treatment group were significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01).Conclusions The drug-separated moxibustion can improve the curative effect and improve the lung function of patients with stable COPD.
