Objective To understand the injuries state of inhabitants in County MEI of Shanxi Province and their degree of harmfulness. Methods The detailed data of all cases from three hospitals at different levels of the injury surveillance during Jan 1st to Dec 31st 2006 in County Mei of Shanxi Province were collected.All the cases met the criteria of National Injury Surveillance Program. Results 2 469 cases were collected from the three hospitals.It was showed that men(68.29%) were more often injured than women(31.71%).Most sufferers were 25~44 years old,which accounted for 39.25%.The leading causes for injuries were traffic injury by motor vehicles(29.16%),falls(24.79%) and blunt injury(15.43%).Most injuries were slight,which accounted for 58.08%. Conclusion The top three causes of injuries in County Mei of Shanxi Province were traffic injury by motor vehicles,falls and blunt injury in 2006.Young males are the high-risk population prone to injuries.We should take counter measures to prevent and control injuries based on surveillance data analysis.

Soybean isoflovone has been found to perform important biologi ca l functions in soybean products. Microbes can transform the soybean isoflavone from low active form to high active form, and further to inactive metabolites. This is helpful to preserve the active components during intake or production of the soybean healthy foods.

Objective To understand the gene characteristics of envelope region of human T lymphotropic virus type Ⅰ(HTLV Ⅰ)from Shantou region of China. Methods The gene of proviral envelope region of HTLV Ⅰ Shantou strain (named HTLV Ⅰ WHP)was amplified by PCR,using 4 designed primers,and then was sequenced,meanwhile it was compared with that of various HTLV Ⅰ representative strains from all around the world,and subsequently it was analyzed to construct its phylogenetic tree.Results The nucleotide sequence of complete envelope region of HTLV Ⅰ WHP provirus we have obtained was 1466 bp.There no deletion and insertion in the deducted amino acid sequence.The results of phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the HTLV Ⅰ WHP strain was most closed to some of the strains from Japan and Caribbean,and like the latter,belonged to the subtypea of cosmopolitan group.Conclusion The HTLV Ⅰ strains either from the coastal region of Southeast China or from Japan,Caribbean and so on have the common origin of evolution.

[Objective]To explore the clinical effects of titanium plate and morselized hone grafting for the treatment of severe acetabular hone defect.[Method]A total of 27 patients with acetabular defects were treated with this procedure.According to AAOS,the acetabular defects were classified into various types:type Ⅰ in 6 cases,type Ⅱc in 4 and type Ⅲ in 17.The average preoperation Harris score were 37.The postoperative effect should be evaluated by clinical and X-ray manifestations.[Result]All patients were adopted this method to reconstruct the acetabular bone defects.The prosthetic dislocation was found in one case after operation,which was resulted from over-anteverted titanium plate impacted the greater trochanter.The part of trochanteric bone and impact factors were removed to healing.No complications were found in other patients.The average following up was 3 years and average Harris score was 87.The X-ray showed that none of the patients was presented the radiolucent lines in the acetabular mattress,bone transplantation,reconstructive titanium plate and interface of polyethylene liner.[Conclusion]The titanium plate and morselized bone grafting can repair the acetabular bone defects effectively and provide a solid initial fixation for prosthesis and restore the role of rotational center of hip.

Objective To investigate the correlative factors influencing long-term efficacy of patients with liver neoplasms after interventional therapy. Methods A total of 495 patients underwent transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), and the data were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to the survival time after interventional therapy: ≥5 years and ＜5 years. Correlative factors were compared in both two groups. Results In 31 patients survived longer than 5 years, 18 patients with Lipiodol filling type Ⅰ tumor, and 13 with type Ⅱ tumor. The 5, 7, 10 years survival rate in all 495 patients was 6.26% (31/495), 1.41% (7/495) and 0.40% (2/495), respectively. Factors including tumor pattern, clinical classification, the features of angiography, with or without heptic arteriovenous fistula, the pattern of Lipiodol filling, with or without invasion and metastasis, hepatic function, patient's age, tumor diameter, AFP value before and after TACE, the variety of AFP value after TACE influenced the long-term survival rate after interventional therapies (P＜0.05). Conclusion The characteristics of tumor, patient's status, the quality of TACE, whether combined with PEI, and/(or) anti-virus treatment have significant influence on long-term efficacy after interventional therapy in patients with liver neoplasms.

In this study, the effects of blood glucose and blood pressure on the compliance of large and small arteries were investigated. The results showed that arterial compliances of both large and small arteries were decreased in patients with diabetes mellitus. In non-diabetic patients with well controlled blood pressure, the compliance of small arteries was markedly improved. These results suggested that both blood glucose and blood pressure affected arterial compliance.

Objective · To observe the vascular structure before autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) construction in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and analyze the risk factors of the pre-existing venous neointimal hyperplasia. Methods · The 8 vein samples were screened from 20 ESRD patients at their first time of the AVF construction (non-stenosis group), and the other 8 vein samples were screened from 15 ESRD patients at their at least second time of the AVF repair operation (stenosis group). Sections were prepared and stained with hematoxylin & eosin (H-E) or Masson's trichrome for observation. The intimal thickness was measured by the cellSens software, and its correlation with patients' renal function, calcium-phosphorus metabolism, iron metabolism and inflammatory reaction in the non-stenosis group were analyzed. Results · In the non-stenosis group, there were varying degrees of intimal hyperplasia in 5 (62.5%) cases, loss of endothelial cell layer in 3 (37.5%) cases, and vascular wall replacement by collagenous with atrophy or loss of muscle layer in 5 (62.5%) cases. In the stenosis group, almost all vein samples showed general thickening of the wall and 2 (25.0%) totally lost the muscle layer. Avg It of those two groups were statistically significant (P<0.01). In the non-stenosis group, both of average I/M thickness and average I/M area were negatively related to glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (P<0.05) and positively related to serum phosphorus and calcium-phosphorus product (P<0.05). Conclusion · Some apparently normal vein of ESRD patients showed varying degrees of intimal hyperplasia before AVF construction. The intimal hyperplasia had a remarkable correlation with GFR or calcium-phosphorus metabolism. Early intervention of the intimal hyperplasia prior to AVF construction may be a new prevention and control means.
