OBJECTIVETo study clinical results of reduction and fixation under arthroscopy for the treatment of osteochondrotical lesion in the knee.

METHODSFrom December 2012 to December 2013, 4 patients with the knee joint osteochondritis lesion and free bone fragments were treated with arthroscopy to detect the stripped cartilage, and then the cartilages were reduced with small incision and fixed by cartilage nail. There were 3 males and 1 female, with age of 15, 15, 20 and 27 years old. The durations of the disease were 1 d, 5 d, 1 month and 1 year. All the patients had swelling and effusion in the knee joint, and the floating patellar test was positive. CT examination showed bone defects and loose bodies. The Lysholm, VAS, and Tegner scale were used to evaluate the knee joint functions before and after operation.

RESULTSAll the patients underwent successful surgery. Postoperative CT showed good location of the cartilage without loss of reduced bone and cartilage. All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 10 to 13 months, with a mean of 12 months. In one patient, arthroscopy examination was conducted for a second time to examine the connection of the fracture part to the surrounding cartilage, and it showed that the internal fixator was not absorbed. The Lysholm, VAS and Tegner scale of all patients were better than those before operation.

CONCLUSIONTreatment of osteochondritis lesion with the fixation of absorbable cartilage nails may reconstruct the integrity of articular surface and recover the stability of joints, and it is an effective treatment method.

Objective To learn the current anesthesiologists deployment at the hospital,and to figure out how to measure anesthesiologists deployment.Methods Existing data and expert consultation were used to obtain various indicators,and the current anesthesiologists deployment was analyzed,calculating with the formula the needed number of anesthesiologists.Results Despite the rising demand and resource utilization,anesthesiologists were found in obvious shortage at the hospital.The number of anesthesiologists needed was calculated as 101.4,with a vacancy of 11.4.Conclusion The national health authorities were recommended to revise the standard of anesthesiologists deployment at hospitals.

Medical genetics is one of the important basic courses in medical education. The teaching reform in course content, teaching method and experimental teaching was carried out to arouse their enthusiasm in study, cultivate their capabilities of analyzing of medical practice problem.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effects and assess the feasibility of radiofrequency thermo- coagulation denervation(TRD)mediated by digital subtraction angiography(DSA)for patients with lumbar facet joint syndrome(LFJS).Methods Eighty LFJS patients were randomly divided into two groups:a denervated group(groupⅠ)and a control group (groupⅡ).The lumbar facet joints of the patients in groupⅠwere treated with TRD,while those in groupⅡhad their lumbar facet joint cavities injected with the mixture of 1 mg betamethasone and 1 ml lidocaine.All patients were assessed using the Visual Analog Scale(VAS)before treatment and 30 rain,1 d, 1 w,1 m and 6 m after.Schober values were measured at 1 w,1 m and 6 m after treatment.The therapeutic effects and side effects were assessed at 6 m after treatment.Results VAS scores in groupsⅠandⅡat 30 min,1 d,1 w and 1 m after treatment were remarkably lower than before treatment.In addition,those in groupⅠ6m after treatment were also significantly lower(P＜0.01).Compared with those in the groupⅡ,VAS scores in groupⅠwere signifi- cantly decreased at 1 m and 6 m after treatment(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01,respectively).The schober values in groupⅠat 1 m and 6m were obviously increased in comparison with those in groupⅡ,while the therapeutic effects in groupⅠat 6m after treatment were better than those in groupⅡ(P＜0.01).There were no side effects,such as injuries to the nerve roots or dysfunctional dermal sensation,in either group.Conclusion TRD,mediated by DSA,has ther- apeutic effects on LFJS.Such treatment is safe,convenient,and gives long-term pain relief.

Objective To explore the risk factors and protective factors for stomach cancer in Ganyu county.Methods Data of 319 pairs of new stomach cancer cases and health controls(1:1 matched)were studied by conditional Logistic regression method on the influential factors.Results The main risk factors for stomach cancer were the habits of eating hot foods(OR= 2.21,95%CI:1.57～3.12),the history of upper gastrointestinal inflammation(4.26,2.59～7.03),family history of cancer(2.29, 1.37～3.82);The main protective factors were often eating raw garlic(OR=0.64,95%CI:0.42～0.96),regular drinking tea(0.37, 0.25～0.54).Conclusion Unhealthy dietary habits,the history of upper gastrointestinal inflammation and family history of cancer are related to stomach cancer,while eating raw garlic and regular drinking tea may be effective in preventing the occurrence of stomach cancer.The results could be applied in stomach cancer prevention activities in Ganyu county.

Objective:To investigate the effect of miR-150 gene deletion on the breeding and hematologic parameters of mice. Methods:The nest litter size,wean rate and weight changes of miR-150 knock out (miR-150ko) and C57BL/6J mice were com-pared. The hematology indexes were analyzed by automated blood cell counter, the serum biochemical parameters were analyzed by automatic biochemical analyzer. Results:The nest litter size and wean rate of miR-150ko mice were significantly decreased compared with that of C57BL/6J mice. The number of total white blood cells,intermediate cells,neutrophils,and the percentage of neutrophils and intermediate cells were significantly increased in miR-150ko mice compared with that of C57BL/6J mice. However,the number and per-centage of platelets and lymphocytes decreased significantly in miR-150ko mice. In addition,the levels of serum glucose and TC were in-creased significantly in miR-150ko mice compared with that of C57BL/6J mice. Conclusion: miR-150 gene deletion impairs the breeding and has complex impact on hematologic parameters of mice.

Objectives:To understand the current situation of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and type D personality in female college students,and to explore the relationship between them.Methods:Totally 856 female college students were assessed with the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS,those with total score of 6 or higher as having PMS) and Type D Personality Scale 14 (DS-14,those negative emotion and social inhibition factor with total score of 10 or higher as having type D personality).Result:A total of 280 students were detected with PMS,and the rote was 32.7％.Totally 272 students were detected with the type D personality,and the rote was 31.8％.The total score of DS-14 and the score of 2 factors were higher in PMS group than in non-PMS group (Ps ＜0.001).The rate of PMS was lower in type D personality group than in non-type D personality group (11.76％ vs.25.34％,P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions:The occurrence of premenstrual syndrome may be related to the type D personality.The evaluation of personality characteristics should be taken into consideration when formulating the intervention program.

Physical training induces beneficial adaptations,but long excessive exercise may lead to severe damage to the skeletal muscles,liver,heart,kidneys and immune functions. Over the past few decades,health scholars have been searching for natural components that can prevent or improve the damage induced by hyperkinesis. The mechanisms of organ damage induced by long overtraining include immunosuppression,metabolism disorder,hormone disturbance,oxidative damage, etc. Natural poly-saccharides have interventional effects on these injuries,possibly by improving immunity,regulating metabolism and ameliorating free radical damage.

Objective To investigate the change and clinical significance of serum procalcitonin (PCT) level in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).Methods One hundred and forty-five CAP patients were enrolled.Serum PCT level was measured by immunofluorescent antibody staining method.CURB-65 score and pneumonia severity index (PSI) score were used to evaluate the severity of the patients with CAP.Correlations between PCT and blood white blood cell (WBC) count,serum C-reactive protein (CRP),PSI score,CURB-65 score,hospitalization duration and mortality were analyzed with Pearson correlation analysis,Logistic regression analysis and so on.Results Serum PCT in patients with CAP showed positively correlated with CURB-65 score and PSI score (r =0.606,0.943,P＜ 0.01 ),and serum PCT was also positively correlated with age,serum CRP and hospitalization duration (r =0.753,0.233,0.281,P ＜0.01),but it wasn't correlated with blood WBC count (r =0.152,P ＞0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that each increment of 1 μ g/L for serum PCT would increase 2.828-fold for the risk of death in CAP patients.Conclusions Serum PCT predicts the sensitivity and specificity of CAP with a similar prognostic accuracy with CURB-65 score and PSI score.Serum PCT in patients with CAP correlates with hospitalization duration and mortality.Therefore,it is a promising prognostic marker to evaluate the severity and outcome of CAP.It may serve as a useful marker for clinicians to evaluate the severity and prognosis of CAP.
