ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of early rebleeding after ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization surgery.MethodsForty-two patients with early postoperative rebleeding after ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization surgery(study group) were enrolled,and 40 patients without early postoperative rebleeding after ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization surgery at the same period was selected randomly as control group.Single factor and multiple factors were analyzed by non-condition Logistic regression model.ResultsThe single factor analysis result showed that age ≥50,history of hypertension,diabetes history,ruptured frequency number ≥2,combined with vasospasm,postoperative anticoagulation therapy,postoperative blood pressure fluctuation ≥ 30 mm Hg (1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa),pseudoaneurysm,fatal embolism and most embolism in study group [81.0％(34/42),76.2％(32/42),66.7％(28/42),76.2％ (32/42),81.0％ (34/42),76.2％ (32/42),66.7％ (28/42),66.7％ (28/42),66.7％ (28/42) ]had statistical differences compared with those in control group [57.5％ (23/40),50.0％ (20/40),37.5％( 15/40 ),50.0％ ( 20/40 ),57.5％ ( 23/40 ),47.5％ ( 19/40 ),37.5％ ( 15/40 ),37.5％ (15/40),37.5％ ( 15/40) ](P ＜0.05).Further multiple factors analysis showed that age ≥50,history of hypertension,ruptured frequency number ≥ 2,combined with vasospasm,postoperative anticoagulation therapy,postoperative blood pressure fluctuation ≥ 30 mm Hg were the independent risk factors of early postoperative rebleeding after ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization surgery (P ＜0.05).ConclusionsAge ≥50,history of hypertension,ruptured frequency number ≥ 2,combined with vasospasm,postoperative anticoagulation therapy,postoperative blood pressure fluctuation ≥ 30 mm Hg are the independent risk factors of early postoperative rebleeding after ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization surgery.The necessary interventions to these risk factors have important significance,and can lower the incidence of early postoperative ruptured rebleeding after ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization surgery and improve the prognosis.

As the major commercial source of natural rubber,Hevea brasiliensis attracts much attention.However,the heterozygous nature,long breeding cycle are strong limitations for conventional breeding.While genetic engineering,which can be used to widen the germplasm base and produce desirable agronomic traits quickly and efficiently,offers a viable alternative approach to complement traditional breeding.Comprehensive analysis indicates that in the past two decades,with calli derived from immature anther or integumental tissues of immature fruit as receptors,both biolistic and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation methods were employed for developping rubber genotypes with improved latex yield,tolerance to tapping panel dryness syndrome,producing high-value recombinant proteins,etc.Being recalcitrant to tissue culture,the transformation efficiency of Hevea is comparatively low,and the procedures are still needed to optimize.Finally,breeding objectives and strategies to improve transformation efficiency were also proposed in the review.

Objective To study appliction value of quantitative dynamic contrast enhanced MRI(T1-DCE MRI)in preoperative grading of brain glioma.Methods 80 patients who were pathologically confirmed with a tumor grade (WHO grade Ⅰ 20 cases, grade Ⅱ 20 cases,grade Ⅲ 20 cases and grade Ⅳ 20 cases).All patients were examined with MR enhancements and T1-DCE MRI. The original perfusions imaging datas were analyzed using the GE Omni Kinetic software,which produced the transfer constant (Ktrans )map,the rate constant (Kep )map and fractional volume (Ve )map.Choose ROI and get values of Ktrans ,Kep and Ve .Pearson correlation was carried out to analyze the correlation between values of Ktrans ,Kep ,Ve of different grades of gliomas and pathology classifications.The Ktrans ,Kep and Ve values of the different grade gliomas were statistically analyzed using an ANOVA .Receiver operator characteristics (ROC)curve was used to analyze sensitivity and specificity of permeability parameters.Results The Ktrans ,Kep and Ve values of each levels has a strong correlation with pathological grading (r=0.95 1,0.804,0.766).There was obviously statistically significant difference between different grade groups(P < 0.01 )by Ktrans .Kep values have statistically difference between different grades except grade Ⅱ and Ⅲ.Ve values were different between different grades except grade I andⅡand grade Ⅲ and IV.Accord-ing to ROC curve,Ktrans seemed to be a better parameter for evaluating the tumor grade with the highest sensitivity and specificity. With the cutoff thresholds of Ktrans of 0.1 60,0.420 and 0.935,different grades of glioma can be differentiated with sensitivities of 90%,95%,95% and specificities of 95%,95%,85% respectively.Conclusion Quantitative analysis of microcirculation perfusion status of different grade gliomas by Ktrans values obtained from T1-DCE MRI can assessment the degree of the destruction of the blood brain barrier and evaluate the grade of gliomas more accurately before operation.

When albino rats were fed with high cholesterol diet or injected With a large dose of carbon tetrachloride or chloroform, severe fatty liver developed but without any morphological changes in the pancreas. However, when fatty liver was produced with a protein free diet, the atrophic change in the acinar cells was observed prior to fatty infiltration in the liver. No change was found in the islets of Langerhans.The presence of lipocaic factor as an internal secretion of the pancreas cannot be verified by these studies or by our previous works.

Objective:To prepare a novel dental lithium disilicate glass-ceramic,and to study its properties.Methods:A2 colored novel glass-ceramic was prepared by sintering technique.The flexural strength,density,elastic modulus,hardness,fracture toughness, translucency and microstructure of the novel glass-ceramic and IPS e.max Press (LT A2,MO1 and HO1 )ceramic ingots were studied. Results:The novel glass-ceramic demonstrated a lower flexural strength (31 5 MPa)than MO ceramic ingot(338 MPa)(P <0.05). The other mechanical properties of the novel glass-ceramic were similar to those of LT and MO ceramic ingots(P >0.05).The translu-cency parameter of the novel glass-ceramic(21 .2)was higher than that of HO(1 6.5)but lower than that of LT(27.8)and MO(27.5) ceramic ingots(P <0.05).SEMimages showed an interlocking microstructure of rod-shaped Li2 Si2 O5 crystals in all the glass-ceramics investigated.Conclusion:The mechanical properties,translucency and microstructure of the novel glass-ceramic are similar to those of IPS e.max Press ceramic ingots,which can meet the requirements of clinical application.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect of electric stimulation of long-term retaining needle on analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and the impacts on the post-surgical flatus time.

METHODSUnder static absorptive composite general anesthesia, 90 cases of LC were randomized into three groups, 30 cases in each one. In the control group, the analgesia was not applied after LC. In the analgesia-pumper group, the patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) was used. In the needle-retaining group, the electric acupuncture stimulator was used. The needles were inserted transversely at Riyue (GB 24), Qichong (ST 30) and Yanglingquan (GB 34) and fixed with sterile sticker. Separately, in 8 h and 24 h after surgery, the electric acupuncture stimulation with disperse-dense wave, 2 Hz/100 Hz frequency was applied continuously for 30 min. Visual analogue scale (VAS), adverse reactions such as vomiting and nausea and the postoperative flatus time in 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 36 h after surgery were observed and recorded in the three groups.

RESULTSIn 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 h after surgery, VAS scores in the needle-retaining group and the analgesia-pumper group were all lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The analgesia effect at the above time points in the needle-retaining group was better than that in the analgesia-pumper group (all P < 0.05). There was not adverse reaction in the needle-retaining group. But there were 3 cases of somnolence, 6 cases of nausea and 3 cases of vomiting in the analgesia-pumper group, and 2 cases of nausea and 1 case of vomiting in the control group. The flatus time was quite earlier in the needle-retaining group as compared with the other two groups [(14.77 +/- 4.99) h vs (18.50 +/- 4.22) h, P < 0.01; (14.77 +/- 4.99) h vs (18.17 +/- 4.69) h, P < 0.05].

CONCLUSIONThe electric stimulation of long-term retaining needle is safe and effective in analgesia after LC. It avoids the adverse reactions of analgesics and promotes postoperative flatus.

OBJECTIVETo investigate effects of the variation of immune function in high humidity environment in different time, and lay a foundation for further study of the related mechanism.

METHODThirty SD rats were divided into 3 groups (n = 10): 20 day group, 40 day group in 90% relative humidity chamber and control group in normal relative humidity. Peripheral blood and spleens were collected to detect the levels of T lymphocyte subsets by Flow Cytometery.

RESULTSIn peripheral blood of the 20 day group rats, the CD3+ %, CD4+ %, CD8+ % and CD4+/CD8+ were 52.91 +/- 6.27, 37.80 +/- 4.11, 14.85 +/- 3.73 and 2.72 +/- 0.82 separately. Expect CD3+ %, they all had significant differences (P < 0.05). In addition, the data of the 40 day group rats showed no diversity in statistics. In spleen, CD8+ % of the 20 day group rats was 6.23 +/- 2.87 with significant differences (P < 0.05) and IgG, IgA and IgM did not change a lot in blood serum of the high humidity groups except C3 of the 20 days group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONIn high humidity environment, the immune function of the rats increased in the initial stage. As time went on, the immune function gradually went to normal level through the self adjustment.
