Objective To summarize the experience in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis with spinal fracture and spinal cord injuries. Methods The treatment and results of 12 patients with ankylosing spondylitis with spinal fracture and spinal cord injuries were reviewed and compared. Results and Conclusions We emphasize that the treatment of complications, especially pneumonia, is very important. Conservative treatment may be used at first, but the patients with surgical indications should be operated early.

ObjectiveTo define the occurrence rate,time course, potential etiologic factors, treatment and prognosis of hyponatremia in patients with actue spinal cord injury.Methods99 patients who were admitted with hyponatremia after acute spinal cord injury were analysed retrospectively. ResultsAll these patients could concluded into three types:type I were mostly the patients with thoracic and lumbar spinal cord injury,whose mean lowest serum natrium concentration (MLSNC) were (128.6±6.6)mmol/L,continued (8±5.3)days,and it could be recovered after two weeks by accurate supply natrium and/or fluid restriction.Type II included the patients with cervical spinal cord injury,whose MLSNC were(125.1±6.0)mmol/L, continued(26.7±17.0)days,mean uric natrium concentration were 200mmol/24h,and poorly responded to the therapy of supply natrium.Type III also included the patients with cervical spinal cord injury, whose MLSNC were (118.3±9.4)mmol/L, continued (36.8±5.4)days, uric natrium concentration were 200-400mmol/24h, urinary volume had been above to 4000ml for 4 weeks.The serum natrium concentration would decrease after supply natrium therapy,but would recover.after fluid restriction. ConclusionsThe hyponatremia in patients with actue spinal cord injury sould be treated according to different type.

Objective To research the incidence rate,potential etiologic factors,treatment of complications in patients with acute spinal column and spinal cord injury.Methods The date of 543 patients with acute spinal column and spinal injury were analyzed retrospectively.Results Of 543 patients,242 cases(44.6%)had complications.The first to third complications were hyponatremia(202 cases,37.2%),urinary tract infections(150 cases,27.6%)and pulmonary infections(54 cases,9.9%)respectively.The incidence rate of hyponatremia and pulmonary infections in patients with complete cervical spinal cord injuries increased obviously.Conclusion Early rehabilitation and active prevention can prevent the complications in patients with acute spinal column and spinal cord injury.

Taxonomy of genus Rhodococcus has been changing since it was set up by Zopf in 1891 The classification of the genus has been changed dramatically in recent years, with the species being reclassified and new species described Th e changing of taxonomy is mainly on the methods' altering from old morphological to modern polyphasic taxonomy Additionally, there has been increased interest i n rhodococcus for its abilities to degrade a range of environmental pollutants a nd to transform or synthesize compounds with possible usefull application

This experiment has proved that bolbostemmosaponin and its constituents A and D have relatively powerful spermatocidal effects. They can kill all spermatozoa in a moment at the concentrations of 0.04%, 0.04% and 0.03% respectively. These spermatocidal agents mainly distroy the biomembrane system of sperm. Using the fixed gelatin membrane technique proved that all of them can strongly inhibit tne activity of a single sperm acrosin at the concentration of 0.05%.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important biological process in embryonic development and tumori-genesis. In this process, epithelial tumor cells can obtain mesenchymal phenotypes and promote tumor invasion and metastasis. EMT is controlled by multiple transcription factors, signal pathways, and microRNAs. EMT and cancer stem cells are closely related. EMT also promotes the self-renewal ability of tumor cells and the overexpression of EMT-related markers in tumor cells with stemness. Some mi-croRNAs can control EMT process and stemness. In this study, recent developments on EMT and cancer stem cells in tumor metastasis were summarized to provide new insights into target therapy of tumor metastasis and recurrence.

BACKGROUND:Fibrin glue can function to close the wound tissue, reduce leakage, stop bleeding, promote wound healing and prevent adhesion.
OBJECTIVE:To systematicaly review the application of fibrin glue in thyroid surgery.
METHODS:We searched China Journal Net database, Wanfang database, VIP database, Chinese Biomedical Database Online to retrieve clinical randomized controled trials related to fibrin glue applied in thyroid surgery from January 2000 to April 2013. Included studies were analyzed using Rev Man 5.2 statistical software for Meta-analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of six studies including 797 cases were enroled in result analysis. Meta-analysis showed that the drainage volume at postoperative day 1 and total postoperative drainage volume were higher in the fibrin glue group than the control group (without fibrin glue) [odds ratio=-27.36, 95% confidence interval (-33.86,-20.87),P < 0.00001; weighted mean difference=-38.73, 95% confidence interval (-44.78,-32.67),P < 0.000 01]. The suture removal time was shorter in the fibrin glue group than the control group [odds ratio=-2.00, 95% confidence interval (-2.17,-1.83),P < 0.000 01]. No significant difference was found in the postoperative 3-day fever incidence [odds ratio=1.53, 95% confidence interval (0.59,3.96),P=0.38], wound infection [odds ratio=0.86, 95% confidence interval (0.12, 6.15),P=0.88], and postoperative hematoma [odds ratio=0.86, 95% confidence interval (0.21, 3.48),P=0.83] between the two groups. These findings indicate that fibrin glue used in thyroid surgery can significantly reduce drainage by non-increasing postoperative complications.

Angina pectoris is an important event in coronary heart disease.Many researches are conducted on the risk factors and risk stratification of the problem,so as to classify the patients into different risk groups,properly predict their prognosis,take the most effective therapeutic measures and achieve the best results with the least risks and expenses.

With improvement in stent designs, the practice of direct stenting (DS) without balloon predilation has become more widespread. DS may allow partial retention of endothelium within treated arteries, and associate with decreased utilization of contrast agent, number of catheter, exposure of X-ray,and expense. This paper evaluate the experiment base, principle, indication, contraindication, skills, complications as well as the result of acute and chronic follow up of DS.
