Objective To make an inquiry into how to reconstruct a lifelike ear, and which is one of the most thorny problem in plastic surgery. Methods The operation was divided into two stages: the first stage was that an expander was put into a patient's opisthotic subscutaneous region and lobe of the ear was transposed or laid aside; the second stage was that the expander was taken off by a 2.5～3.0 ㎝ incision at the top or bottom of the expanded flap. The reniform incision except the preauriclar pedical part which was 0.5～0.6 ㎝ away from the expander edge was slit until the deep fascia and dissected forword at the same layer in order to form a "bag-shape" flap. Then, an auricle model was put and fixed and aspirating tube was inserted in the "bag". The back of the reconstructive ear was repaired with the full thickness graft. Results It made operating procedure simple, negative pressure plasty looked good, the blood circuit of flap was increased and occurrence rate of complication reduced. The operation had been performed on 18 patients with a satisfactory results. Conclusion The success rate of the procedure is higher and the shape of the reconstructed ear is more lifelike than that of the traditional one.

Objective To investigate the feasibility with low dose contrast agent in patients undergoing peripheral magnetic resonance angiography with high spatial resolution at open-bore 3 T scanner. Methods Images of MRA were assessed separately by two radiologists. And the images of DSA were assessed by one radiologist. The degree of the two interobservers' consensus for detection of arterial stenosis was determined by calculating the Kappa coef-ficient. Spearman rank correlation coefficient was used for revealing the relationship between contrast-enhanced MR angiography and DSA,in terms of categories of stenosis. Results For the degree of vessel stenosis, Cohen' s statis-tics revealed excellent agreement between the two observers. There was a significant correlation between DSA and MRA(P<0. 05). Conclusion At this open-bore 3 T scanner, high spatial resolution peripheral magnetic reso-nance angiography is achieved with low dose contrast agent.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the theoretical knowledge level of Chinese students majoring in stomatology based on the problem-based learning (PBL).MethodsThe Cochrane reviewer's handbook was followed by.Domestic published articles from 1989 -2010 were selected by computer and handwork.All these retrieved studies were controlled clinical trials related to oral theoretical education and were conducted by PBL and the traditional teaching methods.The quality of included studies was critically evaluated and the data were analyzed by the RevMan 5.0.1 software.ResultsA total of 138 articles were selected,but only 8 were included.Significant differences were found when the data were pooled(P ＜ 0.01,I2 =80％ ) and random effect model was used for meta-analysis.The results showed that comparing with the traditional teaching methods,PBL can improve the theoretical score of dental students [ MD 5.39,95％ CI(2.20,8.58)],and sensitivity analysis showed that the result was stable.ConclusionPBL can improve the theoretical score of Chinese students majoring in stomatology.However,as part of the studies are not high quality literature,the above conclusion needs to be verified by more large sample-sized,rigorously designed randomized controlled clinical trials.

Objective To value the significance of TGFBR2 gene in mediating HepG2 cell proliferation by RNA interference technology. Methods Three kinds of siRNAs targeting TGFBR2 gene were designed, synthesized and transfected into HepG2 cells via lipofetamine2000. Among three kinds of siRNAs, only the one with the most interference efficacy was selected and the correspondent DNA sequence was inserted into plasmid pEGFP-N3. Then the recombinant plasmid of siRNA-pEGFP-N3 was transfected into HepG2 cell and western blot was used to detect the protein level of TGFBR2. Then, TGF-β1 was used to stimulate HepG2 cells with or without siRNA interference and proliferation of HepG2 cells was observed. Results Among these three siRNAs, siRN-1 appeared to be the most effective. After stimulated by 5ng/mL TGF-β1, proliferation of HepG2 cells showed a marked increase in siRNA-1 group compared with blank and siRNA-NC groups (P<0.05). For all that, the proliferation rate was still lower than that in normal HepG2 cell group without TGF-β1 stimulation. Conclusion By silencing TGFBR2 gene, inhibition of TGF-β1 signaling pathway to HepG2 cells could be decreased, thereby enhancing the cell proliferation.

Objective To observe the effect of lung suctioning method on mechanical ventilation related pulmonary infection of patients after cardiac valve replacement. Methods 102 patients of mechanical ventilation related pulmonary infection after cardiac valve replacement were randomly divided into the treatment group( 50 patients )and the control group( 52 patients ). The treatment group received intervention of lung suctioning method and the control group adopted routine sputum aspiration. The pulmonary infection rate and blood gas analysis before and after the treatment were observed and the cure rate and the positive rate of specimen of sputum were recorded. Results The pulmonary infection rate of the treatment group was lower than the control group;PaO2 and SaO2 were obviously different after treatment in the control group, but no difference in the treatment group. The cure rate of pulmonary infection patients in the treatment group was higher than those in the control group. Conclusions The intervention of lung suctioning method was a safe and effective method to improve hypoxemia and abate the rate of pulmonary infection.

Objective To study the expressions of cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 3 ( Caspase 3 ) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen ( PCNA ) in intestinal tissue of neonatal rats with necrotizing enterocolitis ( NEC ) , and the protective effect of glutamine ( Gln ) on NEC. MethodsThirty-six neonatal Sprague-Dawley ( SD) rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups at 48 h after birth (12 in each group). The control group were fed with milk replacer. The NEC group were fed with milk replacer and experiencing cold exposure after hypoxic-reoxygenation twice a day for 3 days, The Gln+NEC group were fed with milk replacer plus Gln and experiencing cold exposure after hypoxic-reoxygenation twice a day for 3 days. All the rats were sacrificed and intestinal tissues obtained at day 3 of the establishment of model. The histological changes of ileal tissues were studied using hematoxy lin-eosin ( HE ) staining. The expressions of Caspase 3 and PCNA were detected using immunohistochemical(IHC)method.Results Caspase3expressioninNECgroup(77.3±8.6)℅was significantly higher than the control group (18. 9 ± 3. 4)℅ and Gln+NEC group (50. 3 ± 6. 2)℅ ( P<0. 05). Also, Caspase 3 in Gln+NEC group was significantly higher than the control group (P<0. 05). PCNA expression in the NEC group ( 15. 0 ± 1. 9 )℅ was significantly lower than the control group (34. 2 ± 5. 8)℅ and the Gln +NEC group ( 24. 0 ± 3. 9 )℅ ( P <0. 05 ) . PCNA expression in the Gln+NEC group was significantly lower than the control group ( P<0. 05). The pathological score of the intestinal tissues was significantly correlated with Caspase 3 expression ( r = 0. 769, P = 0. 005 ), Caspase3/PCNA ratio (r=0. 835,P=0. 002) and PCNA expression (r= -0. 698, P=0. 014) in the NECgroup.Conclusions Up regulation of Cas pase3 and down regulation of PCNA might be correlated with the process of NEC. Gln might be effective in prevention and healing of NEC by inhibiting apoptosis and promoting cell proliferation.
