BACKGROUND: The clinical features and classification of various anomalous synkinetic movements related to ocular muscles caused by abnormal innervations have not been fully understood.OBJECTIVE: To report and analyze the clinical features of anomalous synkinetic movements related to ocular muscles caused by abnormal innervations, as well as to classify them according to the same neuromuscular nerves.DESIGN: A retrospective case analysis.SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical College of Qingdao University.PARTICIPANTS: The study was mainly conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology, the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical College of Qingdao University. A total of 836 cases of abnormal ocular movements were found from January 1997 to January 2002. Among them 67 cases of anomalous synkinetic movements were diagnosed.METHODS: All patients were inquired of case history and their ocular movements were examined. The anomalous synkinetic movements were found and classified into congenital and acquired. All cases were analyzed according to the same neuromuscular nerves, such as between branches of oculomotor nerve, oculomotor and abducens nerve, supranucleus and other anomalous synkinetic movements.lous synkinetic movements were determined by inquiring the history of observed.RESULTS: Sixty-seven anomalous synkinetic movements (8%) of 836 abnormal ocular movements were diagnosed; congenital anomalous synkinetic movements were the most common ones (88.06%) and were often seen in patients with Duane's syndrome. Anomalous synkinetic muscles occurred the most common between lateral and medial rectus, lateral rectus and levator palpebrae muscle (36.89% respectively) in congenital cases, and those occurred between inferior rectus and levator palpebrae muscle more commonly (30%) in acquired cases.CONCLUSION: Anomalous synkinetic movements related to ocular muscles are not infrequently seen. When we find paradoxical movements between ocular muscles, or between ocular muscles and other unrelated muscles, anomalous synkinetic movements should be considered.

AIM and METHODS: To detect the changes of amyloid protein (?-AP) and polypeptide growth factor levels and study their role in the possible pathogenesis of Alzheimers disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VD). We detected serum ?-AP, transforming growth factor- ?(TGF-?) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-Ⅱ) levels by radio immunoassay in 8 patients with AD,15 patients with VD and 63 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease(ICVD) and 38 cases healthy volunteers. RESULTS: In AD and VD groups, serum ?-AP, TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ were significantly higher than that in ICVD and control group; Serum ?- AP,TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ contents in ICVD group were obviously higher than that in normal control, the highest increase occurred in sequel of cerebral infarction(SCI) and vertebrobasislar ischemia(VBI) groups. There are positive correlation among ?- AP, TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ in AD and VD groups.CONCLUSION: ①?- AP is a risk factor in the pathogenesis of AD and VD. ② TGF- ? and IGF-Ⅱ play roles in the neurotoxin effect that lead to dementia. ③ ?-AP plays a important role in formation of senile plaque.

Objective To discuss effect of fasting and taking food on hemostasis effect of patients with gastric ulcer and bleeding. Methods 160 patients with gastric ulcer and bleeding were divided in-to the experimental group and the control group, the experimental group was allowed to take lower ho-moiothermy water gruel (liquid), the control group was required absolute fasting (not medication), until bleeding stop. The two groups adopted identical treatment and nursing. The lienable stomach tube was placed respectively, everyday pH value monitor and occult blood test were carried out by taking out gas-tric juice when fasting and 2 hours after meals. Continuous monitoring tests continued till occult blood test of gastric liquid became negative for 3 times. Stool was kept for occult blood test, at the same time the gastrointestinal tract symptom and bleeding condition were observed, routine blood test was carried out one every other day. The data underwent statistical analysis with SPSS13.0 statistics software package, compari-son between two groups used t test. Results The inner stomach pH value of the experimental group in-creased obviously, the average pH value and percentage of pH above 4 was evidently higher than those of the control group. The time of occult blood test of gastric liquid and stool turning to negative in the experi-mental group was shorter than those of the control group. Conclusions Taking food can elevate pH of gastric liquid, reduce damage caused by gastric acid to gastric mucosa, thus hasten hemostasis process and promote healing.

Objective To evaluate the adenoma detection rate( ADR)of fecal occult blood test (FOBT)-positive population in colorectal cancer screening programme and to analyse potential influence of“resection and discard”strategy on ADR. Methods Data of patients who paticipated in the Shanghai color-ectal cancer screening programme with FOBT-positive and received colonoscopy in the Digestive Endoscopic Center of Changhai Hospital from July 2013 to July 2014 were retrospectively analysed. ADR was calculated and compared by different genders. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyse the risk factors of polyp resection without retrieval. Results A total of 222 FOBT-positive patients were involved with 36. 5% male proportion. The total ADR was 19. 8%,higher in male(28. 4%)than in female(14. 9%)(P=0. 015). The independent risk factors of polyp resection without retrieval were diminutive polyp( OR =15. 256,95% CI:4. 159-55. 957),located in rectum( OR = 3. 663,95% CI:1. 427-9. 398) and polyp number >2(OR= 3. 988,95%CI:1. 562-10. 187).Conclusion ADR of FOBT-positive population is approx-imately 20%in our center. Low male proportion and“resection and discard”strategy may lead to lower ADR. ADR should be calculated by different genders and advanced endoscopic technology should be employed rou-tinely to predict the pathological diagonosis of the lesions.

Multiple markers that related to gastric cancer has been widely used in clinical, to predict its occurrence, development and prognosis. Serum level of fibrinogen (FIB) and neutrophil to lymphocytes ratio (NLR) respectively as representative indicators of coagulation system and inflammation, can predict the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer and survival time. The rise of fibrinogen is associated with enhanced capacity of the gastric tumor cells proliferation, invasion and migration. High NLR is associated with significantly induced survival of patients with gastric cancer. The combination of fibrinogen and NLR (F-NLR) combines the advantages of each individual indicator in predicting the occurrence, development and prognosis of cancer. It has shown a great prognostic potential in gastric cancer, and can be widely applied in prospect.

Obesity is one of the most challenging global public health issues, and more than half of adults in Chia are overweight or obese. Obesity has been shown to be a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, colon cancer and other specific cancers, and has become a serious threat and even a danger to the health and quality of life of the nation. With the mature development of bariatric surgery in the last 20 years, it is now widely recognized for its effectiveness and safety in the treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases, as well as improving patients′ life expectancy and quality of life. However, previous data from the literatures suggest that some patients require revisional surgery after bariatric surgery, with the incidence of revisional bariatric surgery as 5% to 50%. The main reasons for revisional bariatric surgery are poor post-operative outcomes, including the lack of significant weight loss, weight regain and no significant improvement or even recurrence of associated metabolic disease, and other reasons include the development of anaemia, malnutrition and long-term chronic pain. Currently, there is only the East Asian expert consensus on revised bariatric surgery proposed by Chinese Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery in 2018. However, there are still no uniform standards regarding the indications, contraindications and surgical modalities of revisional bariatric surgery in clinical practice. The authors summarize the latest researches of revisional bariatric surgery, in order to provide the guidance value for clinical practice.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the major influence factors of child neglect among rural areas children aged 3-6 years in China.
METHODSAccording to multi-stage stratified cluster sampling, distribution characteristics and the level of economic development, we randomly sampled 10 provinces, 26 cities (8 capital cities, 16 prefecture-level cities and 2 municipalities) using lottery method. Depending on the different level of economic and cultural, we sampled one medium county from each city (municipalities sampled two counties), a total of 28 counties. All towns were divided into high, medium and low three levels in accordance with economic and cultural, each level sampled one town, each conty sampled three towns, a total of 84 towns were sampled. Each town sampled 40 children, including 20 boys and 20 girls (including each 10 children aged 3 to 6, half and half boys and girls). 4 096 rural children aged 3-6 years old were sampled and surveyed of China. Based on "the Neglect Norms for Children Aged 3 to 6 Years Old in Rural Areas of China" explored the risk factors of child neglect. SPSS 18. 0 for windows was employed for statistics analysis. Multifactorial analysis was conducted through multivariate Logistic Regression.
RESULTSThe total neglected rate of the rural children aged 3 to 6 was 53.7% (2,047/3,810), and the total neglected degree was 44.42±7.57. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, neglected risk of the boys was higher than the girls (OR=1.30, 95% CI: 1.13-1.49), neglected risk of children were higher, when their mothers were migrant workers (OR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.59-3.00); the lower educational level of mothers, the higher neglected risk of children, the children in families that mothers only received primary education or was uneducated were most likely to be neglected (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.91-4.47), the second was the families that mothers received primary education (OR=1.86, 95% CI: 1.29-2.69); the lower the household income, the easier to be neglected the children, the easiest one was the household income less than 5000 RMB (OR=2.85, 95% CI: 2.14-3.79), the second was 5000-9,999 RMB (OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.40-2.20); the relationship between children and mothers was distanced, neglect risk of children was higher (OR=3.88, 95% CI: 1.31-11.52); left behind children were easier to be neglected (OR=1.30, 95% CI: 1.09-1.54).
CONCLUSIONThe influence factors among children aged 3-6 years in the rural areas of China were boys, mother's occupation, maternal education level, the relationship between children and mothers, household income and left-behind children.
