It is nonlinear relationship between breath sounds and respiratory flow rate, thus breath sounds might be a new solution for respiratory monitoring. The envelope of the breath sounds was created firstly. And the linear relationship between the logarithm of envelope and the respiratory flow rate was proved. Then model parameters were derived from every subject using regression analysis. Finally, using these parameters estimated respiratory flow rate was achieved by the logarithm of envelope with 14.9% error. Therefore, respiratory flow rate estimation and respiration monitoring based on breath sounds are feasible.

Objective To determine whether the adjustment of the pusher of GTF was useful to decrease the degree of tilting of the femoral Ginther Tulip filter (GTF) in an in vitro caval model. Methods The caval model was constructed by placement of a 25 mm × 100 mm and two 10 mm ×200 mm Dacron graft inside a transparent bifurcate glass tube. The study consisted of two groups: left straight group (GLS) (n =100) and left curved group (GLC) (n = 100). In the GLC, a 10° to 20° angle was curved on the introducer.The distance (DCH) between the caval right wall and the hook was measured. The degree of tilting (DT) was classified into 5 grades and recorded. Before and after the GTF being released, the angle (ACM1, 2)between the axis of IVC and the metal mount, the distance (DCM1) between the caval right wall and the metal mount, the angle (ACF) between the axis of IVC and the axis of the filter and the diameter of IVC (DIVC) were measured. The data were analyzed with Chi-Square test, t test, rank sum test and Pearson correlation test. Results The degree of GTF tilting in each group revealed a divergent tendency. In group LC, the apex of the filter tended to be grade Ⅲ compared in group LS (x2 value 37. 491 ,P ＜0.01).The differences of most variables between GLS and GLC were considered as statistical significance(16. 60° vs.3.05°, 20.60° vs. 3.50°, -3.90°vs. -0.40°, 2.98 mm vs. 10.40 mm, - 10.95° vs. -0.485°,13. 17 mm vs. 10.06 mm, - 1.70° vs. 0.70°, t or Z values - 12. 187, - 12. 188, -8.545, -51.834,-11. 395,9. 562, -3. 596, P ＜ 0. 01). There exist significant positive correlation between ACM1 and ACF,ACM1 - ACM2 and DCH1 - DCH2 in each group, respectively(r values 0. 978,0. 344,0. 879,0. 627 ,P ＜0. 01),while significant negative associations are detected between DCH1 and ACF in each group , ACP and ACF in group LC(r values -0.974, -0.322, -0.702,P＜0.01). Conclusion The technique of adjusting the orientation of filter pusher had minimized the incidence and extent of GTF filter tilting in vitro.

Objective To explore the effect of improved local nerve block anesthesia in correction of nasal septum surgery.Methods One hundred and fifty-one cases of patients with simply received correction of nasal septum surgery were divided into two groups,72 cases with normal local nerve block (normal group),receiving sphenopalatine and anterior ethmoidal nerve block anesthesia; 79 cases with the improved local nerve block (improved group),receiving sphenopalatine,anterior ethmoidal and incisive canal nerve block anesthesia.Two groups of anesthesia success and anesthesia effect were compared.Results The anesthesia success rates of improved group and normal group who were performed correction of nasal septum surgery without removal of the nasal bottom ridge were 100.0％(41/41) and 97.3％ (36/37),there was no significant difference (P＞ 0.05).But for 73 cases who were performed correction of nasal septum surgery with removal of the nasal bottom ridge,the anesthesia success rate in improved group was higher than that in normal group [92.1％(35/38) vs.45.7％(16/35)],there was significant difference (x2 =18.623,P＜ 0.05).Conclusions Based on the distribution characteristics of sensory nerves of the nasal cavity,and combined with endoscopic techniques,the conventional sphenopalatine and anterior ethmoidal nerve block anesthesia is suitable for nasal septum surgery without removal of the nasal bottom ridge and the advanced sphenopalatine,anterior ethmoidal and incisive canal nerve block anesthesia is the first choice for nasal septum surgery with removal of the nasal bottom ridge.

siRNA drug research and development is becoming one of the main objectives in the future. However, due to the in-stability of siRNA and the complex environment in vivo, the safe and effective delivery of siRNA is limited in vivo. Thus, special vectors are used to assist siRNA to express biological effects. This paper reviews the advances in non-viral vector for delivery of siRNA in vivo.

Objective To investigate the expressions of CD147 and matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9)in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC)tissue and their clinical significance.Methods The expressions of CD147 and MMP-9 were analyzed semi-quantitatively by immunohistochemical staining in LSCC and control group tissues.Results ① The positive rate of CD147 was 83.3% (30/36)in LSCC,which was higher than that in laryngeal polyp (33.3%,5/15)and in adjacent normal tissue (16.7%,6/36);it was related to histological grade, clinical stage and lymph node metastasis status (P<0 .0 5 ).② The positive rate of MMP-9 was 7 2 .2% (2 6/3 6 )in LSCC,which was higher than that in laryngeal polyp (13.3%,2/15)and in adjacent normal tissue (5.6%,2/36);it was related to histological grade,T stage,clinical stage and lymph node metastasis status (P<0.05).③ There was a positive correlation between the expressions of CD147 and MMP-9 in LSCC tissue (r=0.721,P=0.000). Conclusion The over-expressions of CD147 and MMP-9 in LSCC may contribute to the development and metastasis of LSCC.

Objective The exam quality of ‘Probability’ course for foreign medical undergraduates was analyzed,aiming at providing some reference for the improvement of the student evalua-tion system and course quality.Methods The ‘Probability’ course exam scores of 167 foreign un-dergraduates of 2014 batch were collected,the students were divided into two classes according to their entrance date,the former part class A consisted of 90 students,the latter part class B consisted of 77 students.The reliability of the test paper was judged according to Cronbach's α,Hotelling's T2 and Pearson correlation coefficient.The Spearman correlation analysis was adopted to evaluate the cor-relation between the question items.For the two classes,the impact of the entrance time on the test scores was explored on the basis of Student's t-test of question item scores and the total scores.Results The average score of the course exam was 82.587 points with the standard deviation of 13.520,Kol-mogorov-Smimov statistic was 1.627 (P=0.010),the exam scores could not follow normal distribution.The Cronbach's α for the exam paper was 0.808,the standardized Cronbach's α was 0.815.The Spearman correlation coefficients between the five question items were all with statistical significance and varied from 0.315 to 0.657.As the students were divided into two classes according to their entrance date,for the ‘Probability’ section scores of the latter batch students were less than the scores of the former batch,with the difference 4.017 points,the same situation was also found that all the five items in the ‘Probability’ section.Conclusions The entrance time for the foreign medical freshman has an impact on their exam scores,suggesting that more attention should be paid to those students.

Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsy specimens of the normal nasal mucosa,nasal polyps, inverted papillomas and papillary adenocarcinomas were analyzed by Avidin Biotin-Peroxidase Complextechnique for the demonstration of lectin receptors including peanut agglutinin (PNA), concanavalin ensifomis agglutinin (ConA),ulex europeaus agglutinin-I (UEA-1), sophora japonica agglutinin (SJA), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), pisum sativum agglutinin (PSA), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and keratin.lt was found that the distribution of PNA and UEA-I receptors was related to the degree of differentiation, dysplasia or malignant transformation of the nasal mucosa. The quantity of ConA receptors was increased with the degree of transformation of the nasal mucosal cells. There were many kinds of lectin receptors on the surface of one kind of cells. Lectin histochemistry was more economical, convenient, rapid and sensitive than immunohistochemistry. So, lectin histochemistry can be used to examine the degree of differentiation, dysplasia and malignant transformation of nasal neoplastic cells, providing objective index for clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.
