Objective: To evaluate the dietary quality of residents in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for future health education and nutrition intervention programs. Methods: A stratified multi-stage random sampling method was used to select residents aged 18 years and older in 6 counties (cities, districts) of Wenzhou City as the study subjects, “24-hour dietary review for 3 consecutive days” was adopted to collect dietary intake, and the diet balance index (DBI_16) scoring method was applied to evaluate the dietary quality. Results: This study analyzed the dietary quality of 406 residents in Wenzhou City, including 197 males (48.52%) and 209 females (51.48%). The majority of the residents were aged 18-44 years (254 residents, 62.56%). The median DBI total score was -31 (interquartile range, 8), and 404 residents had insufficient dietary intake, accounting for 99.51%. The median DBI positive score was 5 (interquartile range, 6), and 288 residents had appropriate dietary intake, accounting for 70.94%. The median DBI negative score was 37 (interquartile range, 6), and 210 residents had a high level of insufficient dietary intake, accounting for 51.72%. Five dietary patterns, namely A, B, C, E and F, were identified, with pattern B being the most dominant, accounting for 75.62% of the total (307 individuals). Patterns D, H, I and G were not observed. Conclusions The dietary quality of the residents surveyed indicates the existence of dietary imbalances, mainly manifesting as inadequate intake. It is recommended to strengthen nutritional and health guidance.

Objective To evaluate the safety and tolerance of tumor necrosis factor-or (TNF-α)antagonists in the treatment of rheumatic diseases. Methods The incidence of adverse events and their ultimate outcomes based on the clinical symptoms, signs and laboratory parameters of patients treated with etanereept or infliximab during January 2007 to October 2008 were analyzed. Results Severty eight patients were included. Most were rheumatoid arthritis (35%) and ankylosing spondylitis (41%) patients. Few of them were psoriasis arthritis (17%) patients and undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy (6%) patients. Among those patients, 59 patients were treated with etanercept, 7 patients (12%) had adverse events in which the majority were injection reactions, upper respiratory tract infection and tuberculosis. Nineteen patients were treated with infliximab, in which 3 patients (16%) had adverse events. One patient (AS) had upper respiratory tract infection. One case (AS) had red papules all over the body and palpitations in the first 24 hours after two infusions. One patient (RA) had fever without identifiable causes after the 4th infusion. Some of the adverse reactions might subside without intervention, while others were controlled after proper treatment. Conclusion Both etanercept and infliximab have good safety and tolerance in treating rheumatic diseases, the adverse reactions are generally mild and can be controlled by appropriate treatment.

Viral hepatitis was the most common infectious disease in china. But the diagnosis and treatment were varied because the viral hepatitis patients were hospitalized in different kinds of hospital such as infectious disease hospital, general hospital and Chinese medical hospital. It was necessary to know clinical characters and information of viral hepatitis patients in different hospitals. The general information, subtype distribution, prognosis, complication, medication and relations of onset with solar term from 41 180 viral hepatitis patients based on HIS data were analyzed. It was found that the age of patients between 18 to 59 years old was most; most patients were males. The national basic medical insurance was the most type of payment. The outcome of viral hepatitis in the youth and female were better than that in the old and male. Acute hepatitis was easer to restore than chronic hepatitis. Liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma were the two most complications. The peak of onset was during summer solstice, slight heat and great heat. The most common Chinese medicine was Diammonium glycyrrhizinate and the most common western medicine was reduced glutathione. The combination of D. glycyrrhizinate with reduced glutathione, polyene phosphatidylcholine and thymosin was the main pattern. But It was not knew if the combination of western and Chinese medicine was the most effective therapy to protect liver function. It was necessary to take deeply research of the relationship between the combination therapy and their effectiveness.

AIM: The study was undertaken to investigate the effort of Dexamethasone (DEX) on cultured rabbit corneal epithelial (RCE) cells and rabbit corneal epithelial wound healing.METHODS: For the in vitro experiments, primary cultures of RCE cells were used. DEX in different concentrations was added to cultured RCE cells. The effects were measured with tetrazolium salt (MTT)method and flow cytometry. For the in vivo wound-healing experiments, a central corneal deepithelialization was created and were treated with 0.1g/L DEX eyedrop randomly explain how randomly. Epithelial wound healing was evaluated clinically and analyzed histopathologically using light microscopy along with immunohistochemical staning and electronic microscopy.RESULTS: Less than 0.1g/L DEX didn't influence survival rate in cell culture conditions by MTT assay. Flow cytometric studies revealed that 0.1g/L DFX had no effect on cellular growth phase in cultured rabbit corneal epithelial cells. The mean time of the epithelial healing was significantly shorter in the DEX-treated group than in the control group at 24h. There were strong proliferative-cell-nuclear-antigen(PCNA) expressions in newly generated epithelial cells of both groups. The Dex-treated group had a more regular architecture of stromal lamella and significantly less inflammatory response than the control group under electronic microscopy.CONCLUSION: Less than 0.1g/L DEX had no inhibiting effect on cultured rabbit corneal epithelial cell growth.0.1g/L DEX eye drops can effectively promote epithelial growth and reduce inflammatory response, which may have useful clinical application at the early stage of corneal wound healing process.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of sevoflurane on the induction and maintenance of anaesthesia in children, and to evaluate its safety and effectiveness. METHODS: Forty child patients who conformed to the selection standard were operated under anaesthesia with intubation.Without premedicant, all the patients inhaled 100% oxygen(1L/min) and sevoflurane by mask, and escalated the concentration of sevoflurane (to the maximum concentration 7%) until the lash reflex disappeared, and the maintenance concentration was controlled under 4%. All the patients were intubated, together with vecuronium 0.1mg/kg. RESULTS: With little tract excretion, the achievement ratio of induction by sevoflurane was 100%, and the children tolerated well. With stable hemodynajmics,1% approximately 4.0% maintenance concentration of sevoflurane during the operation showed effective anaesthesia, no decreased heart rate or blood pressure appeared, and all the patients' body temperature was normal. CONCLUSION Sevoflurane for children induction can bring fewer stimuli in the respiratory tract,less cardiac vascular inhibition and palinesthesia time. Anaesthesia in children induced by sevoflurane is safe and effective.

Objective To test the possibility of reciprocal pathways between medullary visceral zone (MVZ) and hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) or supraoptic nucleus (SON) following hyperosmotic stimulation. Methods Hyperosmotic pressure animal model was established by administering3% sodium chloride as drinking water to rats. The distributions and expressions ofHRP retrogradely labeled neurons, Fos, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) or vasopressin (VP) positive neuron and lial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positive astrocytes (AST) in MVZ, SON and PVN were observed by quadruple labeling methods of WGA-HRP retrograde tracing combined with anti-Fos, TH (or VP) and GFAP immunohistochemical technique. Results Fos positive neurons within the MVZ, PVN and SON increased markedly. There were also a large number of GFAP positive structures in the brain and their distribution pattern was fundamentally similar or analogous to Fos positive neurons in the above-mentioned areas. The augmented GFAP reactivities took on hypertrophic cell bodies, thicker and longer processes.Quadruplicate immunohistochemical staining showed that a neuron could be closely surrounded by many AST and they formed neuron-astrocytic complex (N-ASC). Conclusion The neurons and AST might be very active following hyperosmotic pressure and N-ASC as a functional unit might serve to modulate the osmotic pressure. There was reciprocal osmoregulation pathways between the MVZ and SON or PVN in the brain.

OBJECTIVEThe nose is composed of several delicate subunits, some of which are difficult to reconstruct if they have been injured. The paper presents the microsurgical technique to repair the nasal subunit defects with the free combined preauricular and auricular flap which well match the nasal tissues in texture, contour and color.

METHODSThe nasal subunit defects were repaired with the combined preauricular and auricular flap which were vascularized by the superficial temporal vascular system. The flap was harvested from the contralateral preauricular and the region of helix crus. The superficial temporal vessels were anastomosed to facial vessels via the vascular grafts harvested from the lateral circumfluent femoral vessels, which were about 10 to 14 cm in length. The helix crus of donor ear was reconstructed with the post-auricular flap.

RESULTS28 cases were treated, including 3 cases of nasal tip defects, 9 cases of combined nasal alar and sidewall defects, and 16 cases of nasal alar defects. In these cases, the size of the subunit defects varied from 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm to 4 cm x 2.5 cm. 27 cases were successfully repaired with satisfactory results. The contour of reconstructed helix crus in donor site was acceptable. No walking dysfunction of the donor thigh was complained. There is one failed case, and the possible reason is the insufficient blood perfusion to the flaps, which may due to the patient's longtime-smoking status and the hypertension.

CONCLUSIONSThe technique of free combined preauricular and auricular flap is ideal for the reconstruction of nasal subunit defects.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathological, immunohistochemical and electron microscopic characteristics of pediatric rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS).

METHODSOne hundred and forty-five cases of pediatric rhabdomyosarcomas were studied by routine histological, immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies.

RESULTSThere were 97 male and 48 female patients with ages ranging from 4 months to 13 years and a mean of 4.2 years. The follow-up period of 100 patients was from 1 year to 20 years with a mean of 5 years after diagnosis. All cases were subtyped into the following histological categories: embryonal RMS, botryoid RMS, spindle cell RMS, alveolar RMS and solid RMS. Histopathological subtypes, tumor site and tumor stage correlated significantly with the patients' 5 years survival. The best prognosis was observed in spindle cell and botryoid RMS. Embryonal RMS carried an intermediate prognosis. Patients with alveolar RMS and solid RMS had the worst prognosis. Tumors involving bladder, head and neck carried a favorable clinical outcome. Patients with tumors involving trunk extremities retroperitoneum and pelvis did poorly. Immunohistochemically, all cases were positive for Vimentin. The positive staining rates for desmin, SMA and myoglobin were 78%, 75% and 37%, respectively. All tumors were negative for NSE, CD99 and LCA. Electron microscopy study showed features of myofilament and sarcomere in 10 of 15 cases.

CONCLUSIONSRMS is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of childhood. Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy are helpful in diagnosis and classification of RMS.

Objective:To investigate the HBV infection and analyze the related risk factors among Li minority in Baisha county,Hainan Province. Methods: A total of 1 595 individuals of Li minority in Baisha county,were enrolled by random sampling method from July 2014 to October 2015. Epidemiological data including baseline characteristics and risk factors were obtained. HBcAb was detected by chemiluminescence method. The difference in age between HBcAb positive and negative group was analyzed by t test. The effects of age,gender and related risk factors on HBcAb were analyzed by univariate chi-square test and multivariate Logistic regression. Results: The positive rate of HBcAb was 71. 8% (1 145/1 595) and no significant difference between male and female was observed(x2=0. 134,P=0. 715). The difference of HBV infection among age groups was statistically significant (F=540. 769,P＜0. 001). The HBV infection rate was 11. 9% in the 12-17 year group,which was significantly lower than the others. The rate in the 18-23 year group (28. 0% ) was significantly higher than that in the 12-17 year group,but significantly lower than the other groups (＞85% ). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that alcohol consumption and tattoo were independent risk factors associated with HBV infection (x2=169. 833,P＜0. 001;x2=11. 354,P=0. 001). Conclusion: The rate of HBV infection of Li minority in Baisha county,Hainan Province is high. The age,alcohol consumption and tattoo are the independent risk factors for infection.
