Objective To investigate the changes of somatosensory-evoked potential(SEP)during an mild impact spinal cord injury in rats 80 as to evaluate its potential value in prevention of such iatrogenic damage. Methods Twenty-four SD rats weighing(340±28)g were randomly divided into two groups,ie,sham control group(only exposure without impact at C6)and injury group(mild impact spihal cord injury at C6).SEP wss recorded in both groups.The changes of SEP in waveform,amplitude and latency were observed and compared between groups and between operations.The gross dissection and histologic analysis were performed after surgery for comparative study. Results SEP waveforms,amplitude and latency showed no significant change in the sham control group.In contrast,the SEP waveform and amplitude animals showed significant changes in the injury group after impact spinal cord injury and the amplitude was decreased from pre-injury(1.3±0.7)μV to post-injury(0.5±0.4)μV(P<0.05),while the latency showed no significant difference between(11.1±2.1)ms pre-injury and(10.7±1.3)ms post-injury(P>0.05).However,this abnormal change appeared in a temporary period at(5.7±3.2)minutes after impact and lasted for about(7.1±3.3)minutes.Diffused hemorrhagic nidus could be seen in the injured cord,which was not found in the sham control group. Condusions Mild impact spinal cord injury may induce transient abnormalities of SEP in waveform and amplitude,which requires careful monitoring in clinical practice.The sudden change in SEP may be associated with impact and vibration damage to the spinal cord,suggesting timely use of protection measures for spinal cord.

Objective To establish a novel chronic compressive cervical spinal cord injury rat model,to validate the chronic pathological characteristic.Methods Fifty-four SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,including control group(n =6),acute compressive group(4 h,24 h,respectively.n =6),and chronic compressive group(4 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h and 1week,respectively.n =6).Two sizes of water-absorbing polyurethane polymer sheets were implanted into C5～6 epidural space on postero-lateral side in acute and chronic compressive group respectively,to induce a consistent compression in the cord after expanded.While a laminectomy on C5～6 was performed only in control group.The neurological integrity,MRI signal change in the cords,large motoneuron number in the ventral horn,and myelin staining intensity on posterior funiculus were studied.Results In the acute group at 4-24 h,the compression was confirmed significantly on T2WI image,as well as hypointense signal change intramedullary.These changes were consisted with intramedullary bleeding,tissue necrosis.Large motoneuron number(P ＜ 0.05),rather than myelin staining intensity (P ＞ 0.05),was significantly decreased compared with the control group and chronic compressive group.BBB score was 6.0 at 24 h.In the chronic group:cord distortion with progressive compression was observed on T2WI image,but without intramedullary bleeding signal change.At 4-12 h,intramedullary edema,central canal distortion were seen in the cords.Large motoneuron number and myelin staining intensity decrement were not significant(P ＞0.05).BBB score was 20.6.At 24-72 h,central canal enlargement,venous congestion,and edema were observed.Large motoneuron number was less than that in the control group.In the compressive epicenter,nerve fiber disorganization or rupture was observed.Myelin staining intensity decreased significantly after 48 h and 72 h compression (P ＜0.05).BBB score was 19.3.At lweek,vacuolation changes were noted and large motoneuron decreased (P ＜ O.05),as well as myelin density and staining intensity (P ＜ 0.05),suggesting nerve fiber demyelination.BBB score was 17.5.In the control group,there was no neurological deficit and pathological change in the cords.Conclusion The pathology and MRI characteristic consistent with chronic compressive injury change,which proved this method is able to induce a chronic course on the rat model,and established a reliable model foundation for cervical myelopathy.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic implantation of self-expandable metallic stent (SEMs) for malignant colorectal obstruction. Methods A total of 108 patients who had undergone endoscopic SEMs implantation for malignant colonic obstruction from January 2011 to May 2014 were enrolled. The clinical suc-cess rates and the complications were reviewed. Results The clinical success rates were 92.59%(100/108). Abdomi-nal pain, perforation and bleeding were the most common post-procedure complications, the rates of which were 16.67% (18/108), 7.41% (8/108), 6.48% (7/108), respectively. The abdominal pain in most patients was self-reliev-ing except for 6 patients with perforation of colon. Patients with perforation were cured by emergency surgery. The 7 patients developing bleeding recovered themselves. Conclusion The success rate of endoscopic SEMs implantation is satisfactory in the study. As a bridge to surgery or a palliative care method, endoscopic SEMs implantation is effec-tive and safe for malignant colorectal obstruction.

Objective To determine the optimum dose of Oxycodone for anesthesia induction in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Ninety patients, ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ , scheduled for elective LC, were randomly divided into 3 groups using random number table (O 1~O 3 groups, n = 30 each). Anesthesia was induced with iv Propofol 1.00~2.00 mg/kg, Oxycodone 0.20 mg/kg, 0.3 mg/kg and 0.4 mg/kg (O 1~O 3 groups, respectively), and Vecuronium 0.10 mg/kg. Before anesthesia induction ( T0 ), 1 min after Laryngeal Mask intubating ( T1 ), the instant of pneumoperitoneum ( T2 ), separation of the gallbladder ( T3 ), wake up immediately ( T4 ), leaving the recovery room ( T5 ), the heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were recorded. At T4, leaving the recovery room ( T5 ), 4 hours after the operation ( T6 ), 8 hours after operation (T7), the numeric pain rating scale (NRS) were recorded. The overall amount of remifentanil and Oxycodone were record. The wake up time, additional analgetic cases and the adverse reactions were recorded. Results The average HR, SBP and DBP fluctuations in the O 2 and O 3 groups were not more than 20.00% of the basal values. There was no significant difference in wake up time between the three groups. There were 22 cases of patients, the NRS> 4, in O1 group requires additional analgesics after they wake up, more than O 2 and O 3 group (7, 3 respectively, P < 0.05). The overall Oxycodone consumption of the three groups were O1: (18.93 ± 4.34) mg (0.90~2.60 mg),O2: (25.50 ± 4.49) mg (1.40~3.00 mg), O3: (26.10 ± 4.55) mg (1.80~3.40 mg) (F = 23.79, P = 0.000). There was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the three groups, but one patient had respiratory depression in O3 group. Conclusion The optimum dose of Oxycodone for anesthesia inducing in laparoscopic cholecystectomy were 0.30 mg/kg.

Objective To investigate early and differential diagnosis of Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia (VD)using FDG-PET scan. Methods Clinical data was collected from AD,VD and normal control(NC). 18F-2-fluo-ro-deoxy-D-glucose(18F-FDG)PET scan was conducted to detect the cerebral FDG metabolism. The average standard uptake value (SUV) of cerebral regions was expressed as semiquantitative index relative to ipsilateral cerebellum. Re-sults There were no differences in age and the mean total scores of the mini mental status examination (MMSE) between patients with VD and those with AD.The AD group showed that the SUV was significantly decreased in the right frontal, parietal,temporal lobe,hippocampus,temporo-parietal junction,and bilateral posterior cingulate cortex compared to the VD and in the bilateral posterior cingulate cortex,temporo-parietal junction,frontal and temporal lobe comparing to the NC(P≤0.01). SUV was significantly increased in the right parietal,posterior cingulate cortex and hippocampus whereas was significantly decreased in the left frontal lobe,temporo-parietal junction and thalamus in the VD compared with NC group(P≤0.01). Conclusion AD patients have typical features of 18F-FDG PET which may be helpful for the diagnosis of AD in the early stage.

Objective To study the effects of butylphthalide (NBP) on memory and apoptosis related protein as well as neuronal pathology in hippocampus of vascular dementia (VD) rats. Methods VD model was generated by the permanent occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries in SD rats to produce the forebran ischemia. Male SD rats were randomly allocated into sham-operation group, VD model group, NBP treatment group and nimodipine treatment group. The function of memory was tested by the Morris water maze. The neuronal pathological changes and the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins in the hippocampus were observed with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemical staining, respectively. Results The impaired memory of VD rats was proved by the lengthened mean escape latency [(78.79±21.93)vs.(16.96±7.44),P＜0.05] and the neuron in hippocampus was severely damaged. The decveased ratio of Bcl-2/Bax resulted from the overexpression of Bax proteins in VD model group versus the sham-operation group [(43.00±6.72)vs.(6.00±1.29),P＜0.05]. The treatment of NBP notably improved the memory function of VD rats and reduced the hippocampus pathological injury (P＜0.05). The expression of Bcl-2 protein raised [(33.14±8.05)vs.(21.81±4.97),P＜0.05] along with reduced expression of Bax protein [(32.93±4.99)vs.(43.00±6.72),P＜0.05] after NBP treatment. However, there was no significant difference in the treatment effects between nimodipine and NBP group (P＞0.05). Conclusions NBP treatment could improve memory of VD rats and reduce the hippocampus pathological lesion by inhibiting the apoptosis related protein.
