To treat hallux valgus, minimally invasive osteotomy on 1st metatarsal neck,immobilization with "8-shape" bandagev was performed, and the effect was definited. The principles of osteotomy stability were analyzed from the osteotomy position, methods, direction and angle. The grinding drill was used to increase friction coefficient between the ends of osteotomy. Correct direction of osteotomy and suitable angle were the key point of stability. The immobilization with "8-shape" bandage complied with the principle of elastic fixation created the conditions for the slight movement of the osteotomy ends. Compared with internal fixation ,it was better on osteotomy healing,and the osteotomy ends were stable and healed with cartilage

Access of safe, effective, convenient and affordable medical and health care services to the people is set as the goal of public hospitals health services as stated in the "Guidelines for Public Hospitals Pilot Reform". Such a goal, however, can hardly be achieved by mechanism changes within the public hospitals. The input and output of public hospitals rely critically on such factors as the input mechanism, regional pattern of healthcare system, the economic and industrial conditions of the region,payment quota and payment approval procedures of medical insurance. This paper set off from the input compensation mechanism of public hospitals in China and analyzed the input and output characteristics of the hospitals. Furthermore, the paper proposed to establish an input compensation mechanism based on public welfare performance for such hospitals. This provided further reference for improving the management of public hospitals and building a public welfare-oriented operation mechanism of public hospitals.

BACKGROUND: Microglial cells are prominently involved in certain neurologic diseases such as Parkinson disease and Alzeheimer disease. In vitro primary culture is commonly used in studies on the functions of microglia.However, these classical culture methods have some defects including complex procedures and low out-put.OBJECTIVE: To establish a simplified high-output primary culture of microglia.DESIGN: An explorative experiment with microglial cells as the single sample.SETTING: Department of Neurology, Affiliated Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: The study was finished at the Central Laboratory of Union Hospital from April to October 2004. Microglial cells were obtained from 10 newborn(one day) male Kunming mice that were selected.METHODS: The author' s culture method was based on McCarthy method, we developed a new culture method and made some improvements,including the increased cell density for primary culture and nutritional deprivation. The microlglial cells were isolated with low-concentration trypsin-EDTA(ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid) digestion and immunochemically labeled with MAC-1 antibody, so as to measure the output and purity of microglia.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Morphologic features of microglial cells, observed with inverted microscope; ② Purity and activity of microglia cultured with these two methods, were measured immunohistochemically.RESULTS: For microglia cultured with McCarthy method, the culture cycle was 20 days and the output was 2 × l05 cells per flask with a purity of 95% -97%. The new method shortened the culture cycle to 15 days and the output reached 1 × 106 cells per flask with a purity of 96-98%. Cell purity and activity had no significant difference between these two culture methods.CONCLUSION: The new method has a similar purity and activity with classical method; however, it may simplify procedures, shorten cycle, and increase output, and therefore can be a useful method for studies on microglia function and for nerve repair.

ObjeCtive To investigate the value of protein biochip in the diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis. Methods The serum IgM and IgG antibodies against flagellin were detected by flagellin coated-and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) modified-biochips in 82 patients with neuroborreliosis (NB),35 patients with erythema migrans (EM) and 44 normal controls.The results were compared with those from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and Western blot.Results The levels of both IgM and IgG antibodies were significantly higher in the NB patients than those in the normal controls (P

·Diffusely infiltrating retinoblastoma is a rare histopatho-logic type of retinoblastoma, accounting for approximate-ly 1% to 2% of retinoblastoma cases. We report a case of diffuse infiltrating retinoblastoma presenting as endo-phthalmitis and comment on the histopathologic findings.

Objective To explore the differences of curative effect and short-term prognosis to severe traumatic brain injury patients with three different early postoperative nutritional supports.Methods A retrospective study was performed on 60 severe traumatic brain injury patients received in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit of Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from July 2014 to July 2016.A total of 60 cases were randomly divided into the early enteral nutrition support therapy group,the early parenteral nutrition group,and the early compound nutrition group.The clinical indicators such as basic clinical characteristics before treatment,the nutrition data in two weeks,the length of stay in the Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit,complications and GCS scores between the three groups were observed and analyzed.Results The indicators of early compound nutrition group were fasting blood-glucose (5.74 ± 0.64) mmol/L,prealbumin(203.80 ± 10.45) mg/L,total serum protein(61.99 ± 1.34) g/L,blood hemoglobin (114.53 ± 2.69) g/L,C-reactive protein(0.37 ± 0.06) mg/dl.The length of stay in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit was (11.6 ± 0.42) days in the compound nutrition group while those in the early enteral nutrition group was (13.20 ±0.42) days and those in the early parenteral nutrition group was(14.65 ± 0.42) days.The postoperative complications of the compound nutrition group were significantly lower than other two groups.The GCS scores of early compound nutrition group was(11.40 ± 1.60),which was the best in three groups.The differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Early compound nutrition support has an exact curative effect on postoperative severe traumatic brain injury patients in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit.It can obviously improve the nutrition status of patients with less complications,shorter length of stay in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit,higher safety and lower degree of coma,worth clinical promotion.
