OBJECTIVETo explore the cause, urgent management, further treatment, outcome and prevention of internal carotid artery (ICA) injury during transnasal endoscopic surgery.
METHODSFive ICA injury happened during transnasal endoscopic surgery of sphenoidal sinus and (or) sellar region, involving 1 case of traumatic optic neuropathy, 1 case of sphenoidal cyst, 1 case of fungal sphenoid sinusitis, 1 case of sellar adenoid cystic carcinoma and 1 case of pituitary tumor. These five cases were from three different hospitals in 1990 - 2009, and the clinical data were collected and retrospectively reviewed.
RESULTSInjury of ICA was related with improper anatomic localization and operative procedures. The locations of injury were in cavernous segment in 3 cases, lacerum segment in 1 case, and clinic segment in 1 case, respectively. The types of injury included 3 cases of bleeding of laceration, 1 case of carotid cavernous fistula and 1 case of pseudoaneurysm. Salvage sphenoid sinus packing with vaseline strip and subsequent intravascular stent graft implantation (2 cases) and endovascular embolization (2 cases) effectively controlled bleeding. Four cases were successfully treated without craniocerebral or ocular complications, only 1 case died of massive blood loss. Among 4 survival cases, 1 patient abandoned further therapy, the other 3 patients were cured of primary disease by reoperation or subsequent treatment.
CONCLUSIONPreoperatively, reading carefully the imaging data, intraoperatively, identifying anatomical positions accurately, performing proper operation, and stopping bleeding decidedly, postoperatively, seeking interdisciplinary cooperation to repair vascular damages, all these procedures can effectively reduce the surgical risk of ICA injury.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the amount of daily iodine intake in the diet of the target population in drinking water with areas of excessive iodine after stopping supply of iodized salt, to provide evidence for developing strategies on control and prevention of excessive iodine.
METHODS335 objectives were selected by a two-stage sampling method in 4 administrative villages with different iodine contents in drinking water. The amount of drinking water intake and dietary survey for 335 people were done by a door-to-door survey,while the iodine contents in the drinking water of each selected family, local staple food and vegetable were measured.
RESULTSThe median level of iodine in drinking water was 431.5 microg/L while the daily amount of iodine intake among the three groups of waters with different iodine contents were all greater than RNI. The daily iodine intake of local people was all greater than UL in the areas where the water iodine contents were more than 300 microg/L. It was of statistical sense that the iodine mean intake per capita per day of the three groups differed at different water iodine levels (P < 0.01). The iodine mean intake per capita per day of the three groups of different water iodine levels increased along with water iodine and showed a uptrend (P < 0.01). 83.2%-98.7% of the daily iodine intake of the three groups was from drinking water and 1.3%-16.8% came from food. The iodine intake had high-positive correlation relation with the content of water iodine (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONIt was concluded that drinking water was the main source of iodine intake in areas with iodine excessive water by the percentage of over 80%. It was necessary to adopt measures to improve the quality of water to decrease the iodine content other than just stopping supplies of iodized salt in the areas where the water iodine contents were greater than 300 microg/L, in order to prevent and control excessive intake of iodine.

Objective To study the physical activities for myopia in children. Methods ICF theory and literature research were used to analyze the current status of myopia in children, as well as the related factors, and mechanisms of formation and improvement, and discussed the physical activity for their visual function and overall development. Results Myopia was epidemic and began in low ages. The related factors mainly included focus time, less in physical activities, stress in education and poor vision environment. Myopia happened through the ciliary muscle spasm and synergistic dysfunction. Physical activity played a role like adjustment function training to improve the function of ciliary muscles, and promote the development of vision.Conclusion Development of special physical activities based on the theory of ICF may improve the visual function in children and promote their overall development.

Objective To investigate the developmental characteristics of static visual acuity (SVA) and kinetic visual acuity (KVA) and the correlation between the for children. Methods From April to June, 2018, SVA and KVA of 715 children aged 6 to 10 years in Suzhou were tested with logarithmic visual chart and KVA meter. Results KVA and SVA increased with age within 6 to 9 years old, and decreased then. KVA was higher in boys than in girls (t = 4.604, P < 0.001), but not significantly different for SVA (t = 1.822, P > 0.05). There was a moderate positive correlation between KVA and SVA (r = 0.552, P < 0.01). KVA can predicted SVA (B = 0.617, P < 0.001). Conclusion KVA and SVA develop for children aged 6 to 9, and moderately positive correlate with each other. It means SVA may be improved via training of KVA.
