Objective:To investigate the comfort of postoperative rectal cancer patients with indwelling anal tube and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide a basis for the formulation of prevention and improvement measures.Methods:The subjective comfort self-report method of digital score and visual analog score was used to investigate and analyze 64 patients with indwelling anal canal in anorectal surgery.Results:The main discomfort of patients with indwelling anal tube were difficulty in sitting and getting in and out of bed, of which 43 cases (61.9%) reported moderate and severe sitting difficulty, and 30 cases (46.88%) reported moderate and severe difficulty in getting up and down the bed. The exposed length of anal canal was the influencing factor of discomfort ( Fvalues were 22.018, 18.213, P<0.01). Conclusion:Rectal cancer patients with indwelling anal tube have serious difficulties in sitting position and getting in and out of bed. Corresponding measures should be taken according to the influencing factors and effective intervention methods should be used to improve the comfort of the patients.

OBJECTIVE:To study the hypoglycemic effects of Insulin self-microemulsion for parenteral administration on mod-el rats with type 1 diabetes in vivo. METHODS:Rats were treated with streptozotocin(50 mg/kg)to reproduce model with type 1 diabetes,ip. The model rats were randomly divided into model group (normal saline),positive control group (Insulin injection 2.25 u/kg) and self-microemulsion low,medium and high dose groups (Insulin self-microemulsion 4.5,9 and 18 u/kg);and 10 normal rats were involved in sham-operation group (normal saline). Anesthesia and operation were conducted for all rats. Positive control group was administrated,ip;other rats were parenterally administrated. The blood glucose levels in groups were detected be-fore and after 15-600 min administration. Glucose tolerance test was conducted for the rats in normal control group,model group without glucose,model group with glucose and microemulsion group (Insulin self-microemulsion 9 u/kg). All group were given glucose except model group without glucose. RESULTS:Compared with sham-operation group,the blood glucose levels in model group within 0-240 min were increased,with significant difference(P<0.05). Compared with model group,there was hypoglyce-mic trend in positive control group after 15 min,the blood glucose levels within 30-480 min were decreased,the hypoglycemic peak was 36%,and the peak time was 30 min;there was also hypoglycemic trend in microemulsion low,medium and high dose groups after 30 min,the blood glucose levels within 45-360 min were decreased,hypoglycemic peak was 18%-21%,and the peak time was 90-120 min,with significant differences (P<0.01 or P<0.05). All rats had glucose absorption peak except for model group without glucose in glucose tolerance test,and glucose of rats in microemulsion group reached its peak and then quickly de-creased. CONCLUSIONS:Insulin self-microemulsion can obviously reduce the blood glucose of model rats with type 1 diabetes.

A novel method for the detection of moroxydine ( ABOB) residue in tomatoes was developed based on the enhancement of the fluorescence intensity of CdTe quantum dots( QDs) in the presence of ABOB. The factors influencing the performance of the QDs fluorescent probes were investigated, and the optimum conditions were determined:the concentration of mercaptoacidic acid ( TGA) capped-CdTe quantum dot was 1×10-4 mol/L, and the reaction time was 20 min at pH=5. 6. Under the optimum conditions, the relative fluorescence intensity increases linearly proportional to the ABOB concentration in the range of 1. 0×10-12-5. 0×10-10 mol/L with a limit of detection of 5. 2×10-13 mol/L, R=0. 9981, the recovery was 97%-106%, without obvious interference on the determinations of moroxydine from the common coexisting ions, antibiotics, and vitamins. The proposed method has been successfully applied in the detection of trace moroxydine hydrochloride residue in tomatoes.

Objective·To explore the effect of intracardiac shunts direction on preoperative cerebral tissue oxygenation in children with congenital heart disease. Methods·Sixty children aged from 4 to 24 months diagnosed with ventricular septal defect (VSD group), tetralogy of Fallot (TOF group) and indirect inguinal hernia (control group) undergoing elective surgeries were recruited, with 20 cases in each group. The NIRS cerebral oximeter was used to monitor TOI of patients. Two sensors were placed on the subject's forehead bilaterally for continuous monitoring of cerebral oximetry. Pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2), noninvasive blood pressure, heart rate were also measured and recorded. TOI and fractional tissue oxygen extraction (FTOE) were compared among the three groups and multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between TOI and these parameters. Results·There was no significant difference in TOI between VSD group and control group (P>0.05). Both sides of TOI in TOF group were significantly lower than those in other two groups (P=0.000) and FTOE in TOF group were significantly higher than those in VSD group (P=0.005). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that only SpO2 was related to TOI in children with congenital heart disease (r=0.560, P=0.000). Conclusion·Different intracardiac shunts direction can affect cerebral tissue oxygenation through affecting systemic oxygen supply. Children with right-to-left shunt physiology have lower TOI and higher FTOE due to low systemic oxygenation.

A 50?year?old woman presented with intermittent dull pain in the forehead and mild dizziness occasionally after her forehead was subjected to a mild bump accidentally 20 days prior to the presentation, and was diagnosed with angioneurotic headache in a local hospital. After the treatment with oral sibelium tablets, the condition wasn′t relieved obviously. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed multiple localized bone destruction and low?density area in the frontal and bilateral parietal bones with adjacent soft tissue swelling. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)revealed equal T1 signals and slightly long T2 signals for multiple nodules in the frontal and bilateral parietal bones, high signals on diffusion?weighted imaging (DWI), obvious enhancement on contrast?enhanced MRI, and linear enhancement in adjacent meninges. Whole?body bone scintigraphy showed multiple increased radionuclide uptake in the skull. Laboratory examination demonstrated that specific antibodies to Treponema pallidum (Tp) were positive, and the serum rapid plasma reagin(RPR)titer was 1∶128. Cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)examination showed normal CSF pressure, nucleated cell counts(8 × 106/L)and glucose level(4.0 mmol/L), slightly high chloride flux(129.1 mmol/L), high protein level(0.9 g/L), high CSF?RPR titer of 1∶16 and presence of specific antibodies to Tp. Histopathological examination revealed hyperemia of adjacent tissues in the cranial osteolytic area, hyperplasia of interstitial fibrous tissue, endothelial cell swelling, and infiltration of inflammatory cells mainly containing plasma cells. The treatment regimen for neurosyphilis was given, and headache was relieved after 1 week of treatment, basically disappeared after 2 weeks, and completely disappeared after 4 weeks, and no similar headache occurred thereafter. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with acquired syphilitic skull osteomyelitis complicated by syphilitic meningitis.

BACKGROUND: Currently, the materials used in clinical practice to repair cruciate ligament of knee joint contain auto-graft bone- mid 1/3 patella tendon-bone (B-T-B), auto-semitendinous muscle, gracilis muscle and allogenic tissue graft. All of them are limited to a certain degree in clinical application. Therefore, people hope to consistently develop artificial ligaments to take the place of auto- and allografts. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility to construct artificial biological ligament (ABL) by applying a novel biochemical technique using porcine tendon as the raw material. DESIGN: Research of new biological material. SETTING: Department of Orthopedics, Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. MATERIALS: Adult pigs of either gender were provided by the Animal Center of Sun Yat-sen University. Scanning electron microscope (SEM, S-520) was provided by Hitachi, Japan, and micro-controlled electron tension-testing device (Model LWK-10B) by Guangzhou Experimental Devices Factory. METHODS: The experiment was performed at the Animal Center of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2004 to June 2005. ABL was established by means of treating porcine tendon with epoxy cross-linking fixation, diversified antigen minimization process, mechanic enhancement modification and surface activating process. Under aseptic condition, a 6-month-old goat's bone marrow was abstracted, and then the bone marrow matrix stem cells were cultured in ABL stent for 3 weeks. Scanning electron microscope was used to observe structure and compatibility of artificial ligament, and mechanics test was used to analyze biomechanics characteristics of ABL. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Structural features, cell compatibility and biomechanics characteristics of ABL.RESULTS: ① Structural features of ABL: The appearance of ABL was similar to that of the normal human ligament. Histological examination showed that the ABL was collagen fibers with no cells. Electron microscope examination revealed that the ABL was composed of hair-looking and fiber-like objects running uniformly in a certain direction and closely parallel-arranged. ② Cell compatibility: Three weeks after xenogenic marrow matrix cells were cultured on the surface of the ABL, it was noted that cells adhered and the matrix secreted by the cells precipitated around the cells. There were no cells found inside the ABL. ③ Mechanical strength of the ligament: The average diameter of ABL was 5 mm and the mechanical test at a speed of 100 mm/min showed that its averaged tensile limit was 927.19 N and the tension-resistant strength was 47.22 N/mm those were close to the corresponding parameters of the normal goat's ACL. The normal goat's ACL was 5 mm. The greatest tensile load was 807.50 N and the tension-resistant strength was 41.13 N/mm.CONCLUSION:As we used the unique biochemical technique and minimized the xenogenic protein immunogenicity of the porcine tendon, ABL has acceptable biomechanical properties and superior biocompatibility. As a substitute of the ligament in the reconstruction of the ACL, ABL has a promising prospect in clinical applications.
