Objective To discuss the feasibility of application of laryngeal mask airway(LMA)in pediatric corrective surgery of lingual frenum. Methods Retrospective study was conducted of 42 chil-dren using laryngeal mask airway in selective surgical correction of lingual frenum under general anesthe-sia in our hospital. The childrenˊs vital signs were recorded at five different time points:baseline before an-esthesia(T0),consciousness and eyelid reflex disappear just after anesthesia induction(T1),time right af-ter the LMA insertion(T2),3 ~ 5 min after beginning of operation(T3),and time at the extubation(T4). The success rate of first LMA insertion and the number of changing to other ventilation way were recorded. The shift of LMA and postoperative sore throat within 24h were recorded. Results The success rate of the first LMA insertion was 85. 71% . Intraoperative laryngeal mask airway leak and shift did not occur and the ventilation was also good. Vital signs of the children were stable during operation. The incidence of postop-erative sore throat was 15% within 24h. As to the heart rate,the vital signs of baseline T0 were significant-ly different from other time points(T1,T2,T3,T4). After the anesthesia,there were no significant differ-ences in heart rate among different time points(T1,T2,T3,T4). Compare with T2 and T3,the values of partial end expiratory pressure of CO2 at T0,T1,and T4 were significantly different. Compare with T0,the values of mean arterial pressure at T1,T2 and T3 were significantly different,but there was a significant difference in mean arterial pressure between T1 and T4. As to the pulse oxygen saturation,all the values were above 95% . Conclusion Laryngeal mask airway is a supraglottic airway management method. The advantages of fewer haemodynamic changes and postoperative complication are confirmed. It is feasible and safe for securing the airway in surgical correction of lingual frenum.

Objective In order to enhance the understanding of Churg- Strauss syndrome, the clinical manifestations and the pathological features of 15 patients were reviewed. Methods The clinical and patho- logical findings of 15 patients with Churg- Strauss syndrome admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospi- tal were retrospectively analysed. Results In 15 cases, the initial clinical manifestations were poly- mononeu- ropathy, gastrointestinal disorders and skin lesions. Peripheral eosinophilia was significant in all cases. Biopsies were taken in all cases. The typical pathological features usually demonstrated in diffiferent stage of the dis- ease. Conclusions If a patient shows a clinical manifestation of fever, skin lesions, neuropathy, abdominal pain and diarrhea, as well as eosinophilia in peripheral blood, the diagnosis of Churg- Strauss syndrome should be considered. It is necessary to take biopsies from several sites at different time.

Objective To describe the prevalence and distribution of anxiety disorders among people aged 18～65 yrs in Liaoning Province. Methods 15 518 subjects in 7 200 families aged 18～65 yrs were randomly selected from 3 cities and 3 counties by multi-stage stratified random cluster sampling.They were assessed for DSMⅢ-R diagnoses by face to face interview with Composite International Diagnostic Interview(CIDI-1.0). Results There were 13 359 subjects had finished the survey,and the response rate was 86.09%.The 2-week,12-month and lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorders were 2.22%,4.60% and 7.21% regulated by Liaoning provincial population in 2000,and1.91%,3.97%and6.32% regulated by countrywide population in 2000.The major disorders were specific phobia and agoraphobia,and their lifetime prevalence were 3.80% and 3.04%,respectively.The people with higher prevalence were females,aged 25~55,with lower educational and economic level. Conclusion Anxiety disorders become a serious public health problem in Liaoning province.Prevention measures should be taken among people with high risk.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the serum enzymes in childhood amputees as a result of earthquake,and to discuss their clinical significance.Methods From 150 children amputees who were victims of Sichuan Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 and Sichuan Lushan earthquake in 2013,45 cases with complete records of serum enzymes examinations were reviewed retrospectively.They were divided into three groups:amputation group (n=6),fasciotomy decompression group (n =5),general trauma without injury to extremity group (n =34).Serum enzyme examination data were compared for statistical analysis to find the difference among groups.Ten children who were not victims of earthquake were selected from department of orthopaedics to serve as controls,and 20 adult amputees as a result of earthquake served as another control group.Results There were significant differences in injury severity scale (ISS) and the contents of all serum enzymes,including aspartate transaminase (AST),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),creatine kinase (CK),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),and hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH),between the amputation group and other patients (FISS=15.474,P＜0.001 ; FAST=10.770,P＜0.001 ; FALT=12.799,P＜0.001 ; FcK=12.848,P＜0.001; FUDH=13.126,P＜0.001; FHBDH=13.186,P＜0.001),and the difference in amputation group was even more significant.AST,LDH,HBDH in childhood amputees group were significantly higher than those in adult amputation group.The contents of ALT and CK were slightly increased.Serum enzyme contents were found to be significantly helpful for prediction of disease condition and prognosis.It was also found that CK was extremely helpful in assessing the degree of illness in patients with severe trauma,especially in patients complicated by severe soft tissue injury.In all the groups,of patients,it was found that CK rose from (129 ± 62) U/L in non-earthquake induced trauma group to (44 208 ± 39 788) U/L in earthquake amputation group,and it was thus increased more than 300 times.Its highest value even reached 117 513 U/L,which was more than 840 times of the normal.If a timely amputation or muscle compartment decompression was performed,CK might decline rapidly down to the normal value.Conclusions The comprehensive and continuous assessment of serum enzymes is mandatory during the treatment of children with acute trauma.It is of important clinical significance to correctly judge the condition and to determine optional treatment measures.
