Through mechanical analisis,it is discovered that the twined structure decides the amplification coefficient of the catgut tension.Many troubles of production can be explained with this mechanics model,and it could be used as a reference for medical sulures. 　　The paper gives an accurate calculating formular for catgut design and its direct tensile strength through improving mechanics model. It can raise the material strength from 10 to over 31% depending on its twined structure.

Objective To explore the methods and curative effect of metallic self-expanding stent in inoperable malignant gas-troduodenal obstruction. Methods The data of 15 cases with gastroduodenal obstruction including 9 cases of carcinoma of head of pancreas and 6 cases of carcinoma of stomach were analyzed retrospectively. The operative procedures of the stent implanted and the tors accepted more radiation dose because the manipulation was under the fluoroscopy in a short distance and with a full field of view. sions, the postoperative eating habit and the development turnover of disease. The main death reasons were tumor transfer and sys-tem exhaustion. Conclusion To pay close attention to the details and main points of operative procedure is the key point to implant stent successfully for malignant gastroduodenal obstruction. The determinative factor to influence the curative effect is the develop-ment turnover of tumor.

Objective To evaluate surgical therapies in patients with popliteal aneurysms (PA).Method The clinical data of 25 PA patients admitted from January 1988 to January 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 21 men and 4 women,the mean age was (56 ± 16)years.There were 27 PA in these 25 patients,with bilateral PA in 2 cases.The main symptoms were pulsatile mass in the popliteal fossa,limb pain,acute or chronic distal limb ischemia and limb edema.Result In this series 23out of 25 PA cases recieved operations,17 of them were treated with aneurysmectomy and saphenous vein interposition or bypass grafting,4 of them were treated with aneurysmectomy and prosthetic grafts interposition,1 was treated with aneurism ligation and 1 underwent end-to-end anastomosis after aneurysm resection.There was no perioperative mortality.One patient recieved amputation for distal anastomotic thrombosis and severe limb ischemia.The mean follow-up time is (6.5 ± 0.5) years.After 4 years,a right subclavian artery aneurysm was found in a bilateral PA case and treated surgically.Conclusions Early elective surgical treatment is recommended for patients with PA because PA may go rupture or induce dital limb ischemia and these patients may have good outcome after surgical treatment.Long-term follow-up is warranted to detect the new aneurysm formation.

Objectives To analysis the main characteristics and changes of the internal death in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in the past five years. Methods The clinical data of 330 death cases in PICU internal medicine were retrospectively analyzed from January 2008 to December 2012. Results The mortality rate in PICU dropped from 5.85%to 3.96% from 2008 to 2012. Among 330 death cases, 136 cases (41.2%) were infants, 73 cases (22.1%) were toddlers, 51 cases (15.45%) were preschoolers, and 70 cases (21.21%) were school-age and adolescence. In different years, the differences of distribution of death in different age groups were statistical significance (χ2=6.90, P=0.009). In all years, the infant had the highest death rate. As the time progresses, the death rate of the infant and young children decreases, while the death rate of the school-age and adolescence increases. Among the diseases caused death, the cardiovascular disease was the most common disease (33.94%), followed by hematologic malignancy (31.52%). The difference of distribution of the diseases caused death in different age group was statistically significant (P<0.01). The cardiovascular disease was main cause of death in infant, and the hematologic malignancy was the main cause of death in other three age groups. Within 24 h admission, the pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) had been assessed, 67.49% was critical and 15.48%was extremely critical. The hospitalization time was negatively correlated with PCIS (r=-0.313, P<0.001). Conclusions In the past five years, the mortality in PICU declined year by year. Cardiovascular disease in infancy and hematologic malignancy in non infancy are the leading cause of death in children. Admission in critical or extremely critical condition is the reason of early death in hospital.

Objective To evaluate the differential diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT between pancreatic lymphoma (PL) and pancreatic carcinoma (PC).Methods The 18 F-FDG PET-CT data of 16 patients who were pathological diagnosed with PL were retrospectively reviewed and compared with those of 32 consecutive pancreatic cancer patients who were pathologically diagnosed and randomly enrolled.The age,location,diameter and the maximum standard uptake values (SUVmax) of pancreatic lesions,pancreatic ductal dilatation,distal pancreatic atrophy,serum CA19-9 level and extrapancreatic organs involvement were analyzed.Results The 16 patients with PL included 8 men and 8 women,the mean age was (46 ± 17)year,and 11.1％ (1/9) patients had elevated CA19-9.The 32 patients with PC included 15 men and 17 women,the mean age was (61 ± 12)year,and 81.3％ patients had elevated CA19-9.There were no significant differences on gender between the two groups,while the mean age of PL patients was younger than that of PC,elevated CA19-9 was less common than that in PC,and the differences were statistically significant (all P＜0.05).There were 12 cases of diffusive large B cell lymphoma,2 cases of B lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukaemia,1 case of follicular lymphoma and 1 case of dysplastic large T cell lymphoma in 16 PL patients.There was no significant difference on the site of pancreatic lesions between the two groups,but long diameter of PL lesions was larger than that of PC [(6.6 ± 3.3) vs (4.3 ± 1.8) cm,P =0.038].Dilated pancreatic duct and distal parenchyma atrophy in PL were less than those in PC (3/16 vs 17/32,1/16 vs 13/32),and SUVmax of PL lesions was significantly higher than that of PC (12.0 ± 5.5 vs 8.6 ± 3.8),indicating that the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).The cut-off value of SUVmax was 9.95,and Youden's index was 0.406 with the sensitivity and specificity of 68.8％ and 71.9％ for differentiating PL from PC.The incidence of extrapancreatic lesions including bone marrow and kidney and spleen infiltration was significantly more frequent in patients with PL than that in patients with PC(56.3％ vs 6.25％,43.8％ vs 3.1％,50.0％ vs 6.3％),while the incidence of liver metastases was significantly lower than that in PC (12.5％ vs 5.0％),indicating that the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜0.01).There were no significant differences on the incidence of other extrapancreatic lesions.Conclusions PL should be considered in relatively younger patients and manifested as a bulky mass with significant FDG uptake and extrapancreatic involvement of bone,kidney and spleen but without distinct pancreatic ductal dilation or distal parenchymal atrophy or liver metastasis.

Objective To explore pathogenic bacteria distribution and drug susceptibility testing results in children with purulent meningitis in Jinan area. Methods A total of 54 children with purulent meningitis were selected from January 2010 to December 2014, the cerebrospinal fluid smear and culture, according to the national standard of clinical inspection technology for bacteria isolation and identification by disc diffusion method for drug sensitive test were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 54 strains of pathogenic bacteria including 36 strains of gram-positive coccus, and 17 strains of gram-negative bacillus and one strain of suspected Neisseria meningitides were found. A total of 31 strains gram positive coccus is Streptococcus pneumoniae, and most gram-negative bacilli is E. coli. In the Gram-positive coccus, 61.3% was sensitive to penicillin, and more than 90% was sensitive to ceftriaxone and cefepime, 83.3% was sensitive to meropenem, 94.7% resistant to azithromycin, and 58.1% resistant to oxazocilline. In Gram-negative bacilli, 60% was sensitive to ampicillin sulbactam 71.4% was sensitive to cephalosporin , 57.1% was sensitive to ceftriaxone , 66.6% was sensitive to cefepime. Conclusions From cerebrospinal fluid cultured of purulent meningitis, Streptococcus pneumoniae and E. coli were major pathogenic bacteria in children with purulent meningitis in Jinan area.

Objective To evaluate the significance of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation(HFOV) used in acute hypoxic respiratory failure(AHRF) children,failing to conventional ventilation.Methods This was a retrospective study of AHRF children ventilated by HFOV from January 2011 to September,2013.All patients were initially treated by conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV),and changed to be treated by HFOV if the patient met to one of the following criteria after the CMV parameters of PIP ＞ 30 mmH2O(1cmH2O =0.098 kPa) or PEEP ＞ 10 cmH2O with FiO2 100％ ∶ (1) SpO2 ＜ 90％ or PaO2 ＜ 60 mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) ; (2) severe respiratory acidosis (PaCO2 ＞ 80 mmHg) ; (3) serious air leakage (mediastinal emphysema or pneumothorax).The following parameters were recorded:patient's gender,age,living PICU time,CMV ventilation time,HFOV ventilation time.We reviewed ventilation parameter settings (MAP,△P,F,FiO2),oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2,OI),arterial blood gas,heart rate,blood pressure at different time points including late CMV(H0),2 h after HFOV(H2),6 h after HFOV(H6),12 h after HFOV(H12),24 h after HFOV (H24) and 48 h after HFOV (H48),respectively.Various indexes at different time points were compared between survival group and death group,oncology group and no-oncology group.Results PaO2 at H2 compared with H0 had significant improvement[76.9(61.9 ～ 128.0) mmHg vs 50.1 (49.5 ～68.0) mmHg,P =0.006] . PaO2/FiO2 at H2,H48 had significant improvement compared with those at H0,H24 [94.9(66.8 ～ 138.9) mmHg vs 68.0(49.5 ～86.8) mmHg,P=0.039; 135.0(77.6～240.0) mmHg vs 90.7 (54.6 ～161.7) mmHg,P =0.023)].All children's systolic pressure,diastolic blood pressure,heart rate at various time points had no difference (P ＞0.05).Compared to death group(n =14),PaO2/FiO2,OI at H6,H12,H24,H48 in survival group (n =9) had significant improvement(P ＜ 0.05).Compared to oncology group (n =10),OI at H2,H6 in no-oncology group(n =10) had significant improvement [(19.2 (13.9 ～ 26.6) vs 33.8 (19.7 ～ 48.3),P =0.049 ; 16.0(8.4 ～27.1) vs 28.9(20.9 ～38.9),P =0.027)],and mean airway pressure between two groups at H2,H6,H12 had significant improvement(P ＜ 0.05).Mortality had no significant differcence between two groups (4/10 vs 10/13,P =0.086).Conelusion HFOV used in children with AHRF which had failed with CMV ventilation can improve the patient's PaO2 and OI.Heart rate and blood pressure are stable during HFOV treatment.Oncology group patients needed higher initial MAP to improve oxygenation than no-oncology group patients when changed to HFOV treatment,but the mortality showed no difference between two groups.

Oblective To evaluate the corneal healing of non-epuality diopter response histopathologically,immunohistochemically and ultrastructurally after excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy(PRK) with SVS APEX PLUS(Summit Technology Inc. USA) excimer laser, and the effects of corticosteroid on the healing. Methods PRK on 6 white rabbits(12 eyes) was performed on right eye of the rabbit for an attampted correction of -4.00 diopter and on left eye for an attempted correction of -8.00 diopter. The rabbits were divided into 2 groups randomly and each group included 6 eyes: Group FLM (3 rabbits, 6 eyes) and group CM (3 rabbits, 6 eyes). Fluoromethalone was given to group FLM,and chloromycetin to group CM. On 10d, 30d and 100d ,the eyes of one rabbit in each group were enucleated randomly. Half of each cornea was prepared for electron microscope observation (SEM and TEM)and the rest embedded in OCT compound for immunohistochemical study to examine Ⅲ -C and FN. Results All eyes were reepithelialized within 3d after PRK. Subepithelial corneal haze was observed on 15d,which was dominant on 30 or 60d. On 100d postoperatively,corneal hazes of 11 eyes were grades 0 or 0. 5,only 1 eye(the left eye of group CM) was denser haze (grade 1). On 3d postoperatively, one or two layers of corneal epithelial cell covered the ablation zone. On 30d after PRK,the epithelial cells showed hyperplastic changes. The cells were larger and increased from normal 5 or 6 layers to 7 or 8 layers of cells on 100d after PRK,epithelium was clear with more bright epithelium. Microplicae and microvilli were less than before. The expression of Ⅲ -C and FN in group CM was significantly more evident than that in group FLM. Conclusion The study show that despite recovery of a continuous and smooth epithelial layer and nearly normal corneal tissues on 100d after PRK,abnormalities of both epithelium and superficial stroma can be detected in the area of ablation. The ablation depth of stroma can influence the appearance of corneal haze after PRK. The microplicae and microvilli of rabbit cornea epithelium become less after PRK,which can be one of cause leading to ocular dry sensation in some patients.
