Objective The study was to investigate the value of deduction and application of anterior compression index in evaluation of atlantoaxial dislocation and restoration. Method Twenty-eight cases of the control group and 28 cases of atlantoaxial dislocation treated with posterior restoration and screw-rod internal fixation technique before and af?ter surgery were recruited in this study and their data was retrospectively analyzed. All of the people underwent sagittal computerized tomography scan films. The anterior compression index was measured in all cases. Results The mean value of anterior compression index of the control group was 87.86±24.98. The mean value of anterior compression index of the preoperative patients was 230.44 ± 97.60 and the mean value of the postoperative patients was 106.27 ± 73.53. There was significant difference in those two parameters between the preoperative patients and the controls(t=-7.50,P<0.0001). There was no significant difference between the postoperative patients and the control group (t=-1.26, P=0.2171). Anteri?or compression index were significantly lower after surgical operation (t=10.35, compared with before, P<0.0001). Con?clusion Anterior compression index can be an excellent measurement tool for the assessment of relationship of atlas and axis in atlantoaxial dislocation patients before and after posterior restoration operation.

A new analytical method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of CrⅢand CrⅥusing on-line sample pretreatment valve-switching ion chromatography. The organic matrix in leather was removed by using a reverse-phase column as the pretreatment column. Before injection, EDTA was added into sample solution to react with the CrⅢto form anion which could absorb visible light strongly. After injection, the ions separated by the pretreatment column were received in a collection loop. Then the ions were delivered into an analytical column and separated. CrⅥ then was derived with the derivatization reagent 1, 5-diphenylcarbazide ( DPC) , and detected together with CrⅢ-EDTA complex by a UV-Vis detector. Under the optimum conditions, the linear range of the method for CrⅢ and CrⅥ was 0. 3-10 mg/L (r=0. 9991) and 0. 05-2 mg/L ( r = 0. 9992 ), whereas detection limits ( S/N = 3 ) were 80. 78 μg/L and 6. 67 μg/L, respectively. The recoveries were in the range of 88. 7%-108. 5% with the relative standard deviations for retention time and peak area less than 3%. The method could be applied to determine CrⅢ and CrⅥ in leather and cloth effectively and quickly.

Objective To explore the changes and effect of functional connectivity(FC) of reward network in chronic heroin addicts(HA) using resting-state fMRl(rs-fMRI). Methods rs-fMRI was performed on 26 chronic heroin addicts(HA group) and 25 matched normal volunteers(control group).The rs-fMRI data were proceeded by usingrs-fMRI(DPARSF) software on Matlab 2009a. Bilateral nucleus accumbens(Nacc) were set as ROIs. Then the mean time series of ROI were compared with other voxels within the brain by the rs-fMRI data analysis toolkit(REST). Intra-and inter-group analysis was performed with single sample and two sample t test respectively.The association of intensity of FC in brain regions and the duration/doses of heroin consumption was investigated. Results In HA group, positiveresting-state FC compared with the ROIs was found in frontal gyms, dorsal striatum, thalamus and pons, while temporal lobe, negative found in part of parietal cortex and occipital cortex, part of dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex and cerebellum. Within control group, positive FC compared with the ROIs was found in frontal gyms, dorsal striatum, thalamus, hippocampal gyrus and pons, occipital cortex, negative FC with ROIs found in part of dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex and cerebellum(P<0.005, voxels>26). Compared with the control group,the FC between the right Nacc and the bilateral calcarinegyrus, left middle occipital gyrus(voxel numbe r=31,28,47;t=3.99, 3.74,3.74;and P<0.005,respectively)were significantly increased in the HA group.The FC between the left Nacc and left fusiform gyrus and right precuneus(voxel number=40,26;t=3.77,3.57;and P<0.005, respectively)were significantly increased, while between the left Nacc and left dorsal medial/lateral prefrontal cortex and bilateral dorsal anterior cingulate(voxel number=98;t=-4.14;and P<0.005)were significantly decreased in the HA group. There was no corrlation between the abnormal FC and the duration/doses of heroin consumption in HA group(P>0.05). Conclusion The abnormal interaction between Nacc and the regions involved in cognitive control and visual spatial attention may contribute to the heroin addiction.

Objective:
To study influencing factors on the detection rate of colorectal polyps by repeated examination in colonoscopy.
Methods:
A total of 900 patients in the digestive endoscopy center of the People′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region received colonoscopy, 300 patients were randomly selected for a second examination and they were selected for three times examination from August 2016 to March 2017. Objective factors for colonoscopy were strictly controlled during the examination, such as endoscopists′ experience, endoscopic operating method, cleansing degree of the intestine and withdrawal time. The characteristics of polyps were recorded, including number, location, shape, size and pathological types of polyps. The characteristics of polyps were compared between the same patient, and between the first-examination group, the second-examination group and the third-examination group. Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of missed diagnosis.
Results:
A relatively high rate of missed diagnosis could occur in multiple polyps, ascending colon polyps, transverse colon polyps, sigmoid polyps, stepless polyps and small polyps (<5 mm) (All

Objective:To compare the application effectiveness of conventional rehabilitation combined with thoracic spine mobility exercises and conventional rehabilitation in postoperative rehabilitation of patients with rotator cuff injury.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 204 patients with rotator cuff injury admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University from February 2019 to February 2022, including 88 males and 116 females; aged 18-87 years [(54.1±11.8)years]. Initial unilateral arthroscopic rotator cuff repair was performed on all the patients. A total of 98 patients received a conventional rehabilitation plan (conventional rehabilitation group), and 106 patients received additional thoracic spine mobility exercises as well as conventional rehabilitation (additional exercise rehabilitation group). The visual analog scale (VAS), Constant shoulder joint score, University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder joint score, and shoulder range of motion (forward flexion, abduction, and external rotation) before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery were compared between the two groups. The occurrence of complications after rehabilitation was observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-18 months [(8.4±3.5)months]. The VAS score, Constant shoulder joint score, UCLA shoulder joint score, and shoulder joint range of motion of both groups were improved significantly at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery compared with those before surgery (all P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in VAS score between the two groups before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery respectively (all P>0.05). At 3 and 6 months after surgery, the values of the Constant shoulder joint score of the additional exercise rehabilitation group were (77.7±5.8)points and (88.4±7.7)points respectively, which were higher than those of the conventional rehabilitation group [(73.7±6.6)points and (85.5±4.9)points] (all P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the Constant shoulder joint score between the two groups before and at 1 month after surgery (all P>0.05). At 3 months after surgery, the value of the UCLA shoulder joint score of the additional exercise rehabilitation group was (25.5±3.7)points, significantly higher than that of the conventional rehabilitation group [(21.8±5.6)points] ( P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the UCLA shoulder joint score between the two groups before surgery and at 1 and 6 months after surgery (all P>0.05). At 3 and 6 months after surgery, the forward flexion angles of the additional exercise rehabilitation group were (135.5±12.8)° and (165.1±11.3)° respectively, which were higher than those of the conventional rehabilitation group [(129.3±12.3)° and (151.1±11.2)°]; the abduction angles of the additional exercise rehabilitation group were (102.3±12.9)° and (130.4±15.1)° respectively, which were higher than those of the conventional rehabilitation group [(93.2±11.0)° and (123.5±13.7)°]; the external rotation angles of the additional exercise rehabilitation group were (57.2±13.1)° and (72.3±12.3)°respectively, which were higher than those of the conventional rehabilitation group [(46.4±8.8)° and (67.4±14.1)°] (all P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the forward flexion, abduction and external rotation angles between the two groups before surgery and at 1 month after surgery (all P>0.05). At 6 months after surgery, recurrent rotator cuff tear occurred in 1 patient (1.0%) in the conventional rehabilitation group and in 2 (1.9%) in the additional exercise rehabilitation group; shoulder joint adhesion deveplpoed in 5 patients (5.1%) in the conventional rehabilitation group and in 3 (2.8%) in the additional exercise rehabilitation group. No statistically significant difference was found in the incidence rate of postoperative complications between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the conventional rehabilitation plan, addition of thoracic spine mobility exercise to the rehabilitation after arthroscopic repair surgery in patients with rotator cuff injury can achieve better joint function and range of motion, with no increase in the incidence of complications.

Objective:To investigate the current status of dietary behaviors of children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) , explore the types of exclusion diet, screen out unreasonable dietary behaviors, and analyze the reasons leading to their behaviors, so as to provide a basis for developing individualized dietary health education plan.Methods:From January 2018 to December 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 60 IBD children who were treated and hospitalized in the Gastroenterology Department and their main caregivers of the Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University as research subjects. All subjects were investigated with the self-designed IBD Patients Dietary Behaviors Questionnaire. Single factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were performed on the influencing factors of the dietary behavior of IBD children. A total of 60 questionnaires were issued and 50 were validly recovered with a valid recovery rate of 83.3%.Results:The score of dietary behaviors of IBD children was (34.68±2.77) , and the standard score was (86.70±6.91) . Education level and residence were the effects of the dietary behavior scores of the main caregivers of children with IBD. In terms of the attitude of the main caregivers to the exclusion diet, there were unreasonable exclusion behaviors such as lack of crude fiber food, and dairy products.Conclusions:The overall dietary behaviors of IBD children are relatively good, but there are still some unreasonable dietary behaviors and excessive reliance on the exclusion diet, and the main influencing factors include the education level and residence of their caregivers. It is recommended that medical staff emphasize individualization when formulating dietary health education plan to achieve the goal of standardizing the dietary behavior of IBD children, promoting growth and development, and reducing symptom deterioration and recurrence.
