Objective:To analyze infection-related factors for Coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG).Method: The cases undergoing operations with CABG from January to June in 2006 were 614.The records of the two sets of statistical indicators were kept and the data were analyzed to find the infection-related factors.Result:There were three factors related to infection:the measure of anaesthesia,the time of hospitalization before surgical operations and the duration of prophylac- tic antibiotics treatment.Diabetes mellitus was not a risk factor in our study.Conclusion:In view of patients'health condi- tion,prophylactic antibiotics can be used to prevent infection in surgical operations.Shortening the time of hospitalization before surgical operations and adopting off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting can decrease the infection.CABG is as safe for diabetic patients as for non-diabetic patients.

BACKGROUND: Pedicle screw fixation is mainly used to treat thoracolumbar disorders, and accurate placement is the key to success; thereafter, how to improve the accuracy of placement and reduce the secondary nailing is an issue of concern.OBJECTIVE: To compare the advantages and disadvantages of various pedicle screw placement methods and their application value.METHODS: CNKI and PubMed databases were retrieved for clinical research concerning the pedicle screw fixation for thoracolumbar disorders published before May 2016 using the keywords of pedicle screw fixation, free-hand technique,3D-printing technology, computer navigation technology, clinical application prospect in English and Chinese,respectively. The repetitive literatures were excluded, and the advanced pedicle screw technologies were collected and evaluated in views of feasibility, universality and practicability.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Computer-assisted navigation system and three-dimensional printing technology are the focus of research, but only applied in the treatment of pedicle congenital malformations or complicated cases. (2) Free-hand technique is still the most widely used, which is the essential skills that surgeons must master. (3) Traditional technology is still the mainstream in clinic, so improved preoperative planning, and individualized scheme are needed.

OBJECTIVE To analyze 1000 Hz probe tone tympanometry of middle ear with different volume of fluid, and to evaluate the role of 1000 Hz probe tone tympanometry in the diagnosis of presence of fluid in tympanic cavity. METHODS Tympanometries with 1000 Hz or 226 Hz probe tone were obtained from all the guinea pigs with different volume of fluid in tympanic cavity using GSI33 analyzer and tympanometry curves were analyzed. RESULTS There was a significant difference of the peak pressure of 1000 Hz tympanometry among all test groups and control group. The peak pressure decreased with the increasing of fluid volume in tympanic cavity. CONCLUSION Tympanometry with 1000 Hz probe tone can be used in the diagnosis of fluid in tympanic cavity, and it can be an indicator of volume of fluid in tympanic cavity.

Objective To study the diagnostic significance of whole blood sample index in the severity of hand, foot and mouth disease, and to analyze its pathogenesis. Methods 194 cases of severe cases of hand, foot and mouth disease were selected as the case group,and 193 cases of mild hand, foot and mouth disease were selected as the control group. Blood samples were collected after admission to study the whole blood samples, including white blood cells, erythrocytes, platelets, medium cell ratio, lymphocyte ratio, mononuclear cell ratio, C-reactive protein test; The patient's immune system, the nervous system were also tested. Results Compared with patients with mild group, the white blood cell level of the patients in the severe group was higher and the albumin level was higher, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), the monocyte ratio, the T cell ratio was lower, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The white blood cell level and monocyte ratio of patients with severe hand, foot and mouth disease have changed. The whole blood sample has a certain sensitivity to the diagnosis of severe hand, foot and mouth disease.

Objective To determine whether the pressure of continuous CO 2 pheumoperitoneum (CCP) affects port site implantation of tumor cells.Methods Male SD rats were injected intraperitoneally with gastric cancer cells (cell line SGC 7901). Continuous CO 2 pneumoperitoneum at 15*!mm*!Hg or 30*!mm*!Hg for 5*!mins,60*!mins,120*!mins and 180*!mins with different number of tumor cell injection(10 4/ml, 10 6/ml respectively) was then established. Several samples of peritoneal washing served as positive control.All collecting dishes were incubated at 37℃ for one week.Results Dishes were tumor cell positive on which the tumor cells were collected from rats undergoing continuous flows of CO 2 gas (5*!L/min) at pneumoperitoneum of 30*!mm*!Hg for 60 mins or longer and all peritoneal washing samples showed tumor growth also. Conclusion It suggests that the number of tumor cells, pneumoperitoneum pressure and the duration may affect the port site implantation.

Aim Exploration of the effects of bioactive compound from paecilomyces tenuipes (BCPT) on the behavior, ultrastructure of hippocampus, and expressions of BDNF and Bax of cerebral cortex in CUS rats. Methods The depression model rat was induced by chronic unpredictable stress(CUS). The Open field test was used to observe the behavior of CUS rats. The expressions of BDNF and Bax of cerebral cortex were studied using immunohistochemical method, and average optical density of cortical neuron was calculated by image analysis. Morphology of hippocampus was observed by transmission electron microscope. Results Compared with model group, BCPT could obviously increase the activity of ambulation and rearing and the number of positive neuron of BDNF, decrease the number of positive neuron of Bax, and effectively prevent pathological damage induced by chronic unpredictable stress. Conclusion BCPT may exhibit the effects of antidepression, up-regulate the expression of BDNF, down-regulate the expression of Bax, and improve of the ultrastructure of hippocampus.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of liquid nitrogen cryotherapy combined with acyclovir and mecobalamin in the treatment of herpes zoster in elderly patients.Methods 520 elderly patients with herpes zoster were randomly divided into two groups,experimental group and control group (n=260,each).Patients in experimental group were treated with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy,using liquid nitrogen cotton swab to graze the skin lesions 2-3 times per day for successive 5 days,combined with acyclovir and mecobalamin.Patients in control group were treated with acyclovir and mecobalamin.New blisters and dry skin and crust were observed and compared between the two groups on the 5th,14th,30th day after treatment.The skin lesion situation and reaction times for pain complete remission,vesicular scab,postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) were recorded and analyzed.Results The effective rate was 93.9％ (244/260) in the experimental group versus 84.2％ (219/260) in the control group (x2 =12.32,P＜ 0.05).The reaction times for vesicular scab,pain complete remission and subside were shorter in experimental group than in control group [(2.63 ±0.78)d vs.(4.75±1.39)d,(8.17±1.68)d vs.(11.25±2.23)d,(9.24±2.53)d vs.(12.78±3.13)d,all P＜0.01].There was no significant difference in new blister time between the experimental group and the control group [(1.85±0.62) d vs.(1.79±0.83)d,P＞0.05].Postherpetic neuralgia incidence was lower in experimental group than in control group [6.9％ (18/260) vs.18.1％ (47/260),x2 =14.79,P＜0.01].Conclusions Treatment with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy combined with acyclovir and mecobalamin can shorten the reaction times of vesicular scab,and pain complete remission and subside,and reduce postherpetic neuralgia as compared to acyclovir and mecobalamin treatment in elderly patients with herpes zoster.

Objective To compare the clinic significance of four clinical scoring systems in evaluating prognosis of acute pancreatitis: bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis(BISAP), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHEⅡ), Ranson’s scoring system, computed tomography severity index (CTSI) in AP. Methods Patients visited our clinic with AP (n=114) in recent 2 years were retrospectively analyzed. BISAP and APACHEⅡscores were obtained at 24 hours after admission; Ranson ’s score was obtained at 48 hours after admission and CTSI are obtained was obtained at 72 hours after admission. Results of four scoring system were compared under different causes and different severity of the dis?ease. Correlation between BISAP score and the other three scores were analyzed and the predicative value of all four scoring systems for severity of AP and death were also compared. Results The mean values of four scoring systems show no signifi?cant difference in AP patients with different etiology (P>0.05). The BISAP score is positively correlated with APACHE-Ⅱ, Ranson ’s score and CTSI score (P<0.01). The four scoring systems all present good predictive value on the severity of AP and death (P<0.01). Conclusion The four scoring systems can all be applied to grading and prognosis for AP of various causes. BISAP is a simple, prompt, economical scoring system in clinical practice.
