In order to orient medical service towards the needs of patients, put quality at the core of medical practice and take doctors as the axis, we started the deepening of the reform of the operational system of our hospital at the juncture when patients were allowed to select their doctors. Ways adopted include: creation of a sound environment of competition through management focused on personnel; promotion of the healthy development of the move of letting patients select their doctors via management focused on personnel; stimulation of doctors through dynamic competition based on management focused on personnel. The following good effects have been achieved. ①In the period lasting from January to June 2001, as compared with the same period of the previous year, the outpatient volume increased by 30 042 visits, the number of discharged cases increased by 1 275, and the consumption of health materials per hundred yuan of medical income dropped by 5.28%. ②Solutions were found to problems which had existed for a long time in the management of the hospital but which had failed to be solved, problems like engagement of people with senior professional titles on lower posts, improper relationship between senior, middle-aged and young personnel, and misunderstandings regarding management. ③A dynamic operational system was formed inside the hospital.

[Objective]To explore the effect on spinal growth and devetopment at different month-age of immature rabbits with spinal fusion and fixation;and to explain the mechanism of crankshaft phenomenon after child scoliosis treatment.[Method]Twenty-four 6-weeks-old rabbits and 24 15-weeks-old rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups.Various lengths of lumbar vertebral region were fused posteriorly and fixed with wires,and the Cobbs angle in the frontal and saglttal planes were measured after the surgery.[Result]The lumbar spine of each group became lordosis with different degree.It was most obvious in the group which were fused in 7 lumbar vertebraes at 6-month-week age.The multiple linear regression outcomes show significance among different month-age,different lengths of fusion region and the Cobbs angle.[Conclusion]In the imature rabbits,if their lumbar vertebrae were posteriorly fixed only may be appeared and getting serious gradually due to the potential growth of anterior spinal column.There has significant correlation among the degree of skelecton immature,fused segment length and spine lordosis.

AIM: To study the effect of Liuwei Dihuang Wan (LWDHW) on the expression of immune-associated genes in the aged rats using cDNA microarray. METHODS: Forty 20-months-old rats were divided into two groups equally. One group was treated with LWDHW for 5 weeks,another was untreated as control. Some biochemical assays were used to confirm the physiological differences between two groups. The mRNA from the spleens of twenty 4-months-old young rats were extracted and divided equally into two parts. Each part was conjoined with mRNA from drug treated aged rats and that from untreated control aged rats,respectively,and two experimental combinations for reverse transcription and cDNA microarray were formed. By comparing two groups of data from two combinations,the effects of LWDHW on the expression of the associated genes were evaluated. RESULTS: 13 down-regulated genes and one up-regulated gene were identified in the untreated control old rats,whose expression did not change obviously in treated old rats compared with young rats. The expressions of another two sequence were up-regulated distinctly in treated old rats compared with young rats. CONCLUSIONS: 16 immune-associated genes expressions were affected markedly by LWDHW. It will be helpful for understanding the molecular mechanism of LWDHW in ageing.

[Objective ] To investigate the improvement of the surgical treatment effect on cerebral palsy with spastic diplegia by performing modified surgeries since 2004. [Method ] Twenty-three cases of severe cerebral palsy with spastic diplegia were operated, 14 male, 9 female; age 3 ～ 12 years; the average age of 5.7 years; their main symptoms were unable to stand and walk independently, with severe hypermyotonia of both lower extremities, and a scissoring type of gait when standing, hip and knee flexing contracture, ankle and foot equinovarus. Physical examination: there was hypermyotonia of the iliopsoas, adductor musculus, hamstrings, triceps surae, anterior and posterior tibial muscle, flexor pollicis longus and flexor digitorum longus. The muscle tone was 3 ～4 grade according to Ashworth criterion. Treatment: The intramuscular tenotomy, fascial division or sliding elongation were performed, to lengthen the tendon of the joint flexion contracture, the lateral half of anterior tibial muscle tendon was transferred laterally to balance the muscle force at the foot. Finally, both lower extremities were fixed by a new designed external frame, to straigthen the articular genu, keep both ankles and feet in neutral position, both lower extremities abducting 30°, and to correct all joint deformities. Family rehabilitation programs started after the external frame was removed 6 weeks later. [Result] All cases were followed up in 1 ～3 years with the average 2. 2 years. The results were evaluated as excellent, good and ineffective, according to correction of the joint deformities, the ability to stand and walk, and parent's satisfaction to the treatment. Of them 21 cases were excellent, 2 cases good, and no ineffective case. [ Conclusion ] For the severe cerebral palsy with spastic diplegia in children, reasonable release of the tight tendons of the multi-joint flexion contracture, balance of muscle force at the foot, correction of all deformities and fixation of the lower extremities with the new external frame, and long term of family rehabilitation after the surgery, are more effective treatment.

BACKGROUND: Recently,Illizarov external frame is commonly used to treat adult talipes equinovarus.However,its application is limited in infant and child due to amount of components,large volume and heavy weight. OBJECTIVE: A new three-dimensional external mini-frame was designed to observe its therapentical effects for congenital talipes equinovarus in infants. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING: Retraspectively analysis of the therapentical effects of the three-dimensional external mini-frame for congenital talipes equinovarus in infants at the Department of Pediatric Orthopedics,Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 2004 and June 2007. PARTICIPANTS: 106 infants (130 feet) with congenital talipes equinovarus,76 males and 30 females aged 1.6 years (range 0.5-3 years),including 80 left feet and 50 right feet,24 cases bilateral feet and 82 cases unilateral feet. Eighty-one cases underwent orthosis or cost treatment but were not cured; 10 cases underwent surgery in other hospitals but all failed,the other cases were not given any treatment. The new three-dimensional external mini-frame was designed by the authors and produced by Hebei Hengshui Kangda. METHODS: According to the age,degree of deformity,being operated or not and pathological changeS of the foot,different treatment methods were applied: Corrcetion and fixation of the foot directly with the new external mini-frame; Limited soft tissue release,followed by corrcetion and fixation of the foot with the mini-frame; Corrcetion and fixation of the foot with the mini-frame after more soft tissue realse on interior posterior foot; Corrcetion and fixation of the foot with the mini-frame after soft tissue release,tendon transfer and restore of muscle force balance. The postoperative external fixation lasted for about 3 mouths. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Evaluatoin of therapentical effects according to Garceau standards. RESULTS: All cases were followed up for 2.5 years (range 0.5-3.5 years). Eighty-six cases (94 feet) were excellent: the foot looked near normal,the calcar pedis was erect,with plantigrade foot in walking,the range of the joint motion in foot was near normal. Seventeen cases (32 feet) were good: the foot deformity improved obviously,but a light adduction was remained in the forefoot,with plantigrade foot in walking,the range of joint motion in foot was good. Three cases (4 feet) were effective: the forefoot adduct lightly,with lightly calcaneus varus,the motion of foot was limitted partly. CONCLUSION: The new 3D external mini-frame shows favorable effects for congenital talipes equinovarus in infants.
