Objective To study the clinical and imaging features of neonatal acute osteomyelitis.Method From 2011 to 2016,the clinical feature,laboratory results,pathogen,imaging features,treatment and prognosis of neonates who were diagnosed with acute osteomyelitis in NICU of People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were retrospectively studied.Result A total of 13 cases were enrolled during the study period,5 males and 8 females,with onset age of 7 ~30 d.8 cases had different degrees of fever and 5 of them showed dyspnea;8 cases had elevated skin temperature and swelling at the affected area;7 cases presented with irritability;6 cases had anorexia;all cases had elevated white blood cell count.Blood culture were taken immediately after their admission,and culture from the pus were taken for some patients.5 cases had positive blood culture and Staphylococcus aureus was the main pathogen.6 cases had positive pus culture,and 4 cases showed gram positive (G +) bacteria and 2 cases gram negative (G-) bacteria.Humerus and tibia were the main foci of the infection.4 cases had X-ray examination within 7 days of onset showing soft tissue swelling and no sign of bone destruction.13 cases had X-ray examination at 7 to 14 days of disease.Among them only 1 case showed soft tissue swelling,and the rest 12 cases had different levels of bone destruction and periosteal reaction.2 cases had X-ray examination after 14 days of disease,showing stiffening ring,inflammatory changes and periosteal reaction.All patients were treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics after admission,and the affected limbs were immobilized.3 cases had further surgical treatment.11 patients recovered and were discharged,1 patient was treated at local hospital after diagnosis and 1 patient refused further treatment due to serious complications after 35 d of hospital stay and was lost on follow-up.Conclusion The clinical manifestation of neonatal osteomyelitis is atypical,the radiological and pathogen examination should be carried out once osteomyelitis is suspected.Appropriate antibiotics and timely surgery can prevent further damage and long-term sequela.

A case of Schwannoma in the submandibular gland was reported which had been misdiagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma before operation. The tumor was originated from lingual nerve which in turn invaded the Schwann membrane near the submandibular ganglion.

With high incident of cancer and chronic disease, it is more and more important to develop palliative care; as developing later, there is neither unified palliative care mode and related policy, nor mature assessment collaboration in China. It pointed out that Australia as an advanced country with stable development of palliative care and assessment collaboration, called palliative care outcomes collaboration (PCOC). It expatiated the PCOC on structure,function and operation. China should learn from the mode of Australia palliative care assessment and management collaboration, find references to improve and further develop Chinese palliative care assessment collaboration.

Objective To evaluate the effects of hydrogen-rich saline on the early diabetic neuropathic pain (DPN) in rats.Methods Healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 8 weeks,weighing 180-220 g,were used in the study.DPN model was made by intraperitoneal injection of 1% streptozocin (STZ) 65 mg/kg.Twelve diabetic rats were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:DPN group and hydrogen-rich saline group (HRS group).Another 6 normal rats were randomly collected as control group (group C).At 14 days after STZ injection,hydrogen-rich saline 5 ml/kg was injected intraperitoneally once a day for 14 consecutive days in HRS group,while C and DNP groups received the equal volume of normal saline.Mechanical paw withdrawal threshold to yon Frey stimuli (MWT) and paw withdrawal latency to nociceptive thermal stimulation (TWL) were measured at 2 days before STZ injection (To) and 7,14,21 and 28 days after STZ injection (T1-4).The motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) of the right hindlimb and distal motor latency was measured after pain threshold was measured at T4.After measurement of neurological function was completed,tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and i nterleukin-6 (IL-6) contents (by ELISA) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activity (by immuno-histochemistry) were detected.Results Compared with group C,MNCV was significantly decreased,the motor latency was prolonged,MWT was decreased at T1-T4,TWL was shortened at T2-T4,TNF-a and IL-6 contents were increased,and NF-κB activity was enhanced in DNP and HRS groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group DNP,MNCV was significandy increased,the motor latency was shortened,MWT was increased at T3.4,TWL was prolonged at T4,TNF-a and IL-6 contents were decreased,and NF-κB activity was weakened in group HRS (P < 0.05).Conclusion Hydrogen-rich saline can relieve the early DPN through inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway in rats.

Objective To investigate the level of hope, personality characteristics and the care of burden of the primary caregivers of advanced cancer patients, and to analyze the correlation between the level of hope and personality characteristics and care of burden. Methods 201 primary caregivers of terminal cancer patients were selected from May to September in 2016. HHI, NEO-FFI and ZBI were used to investigate the participants. Results The hope of the participants were all in moderate to high levels. The level of hope of the participants was significantly positively correlated with the scores of extraversion and conscientiousness(r =0.165, 0.235, P<0.05). It was significantly negatively correlated with neuroticism, openness, agreeableness and burden care, r =-0.258--0.179, P<0.05. Conclusions The medical staff should give interventions timely according to the personality characteristics and care burden of the main caregivers of patients with advanced cancer, so that the level of hope could be improved in order to improve their psychological health.

Aim To investigate the neuroprotective effects of osthole(Ost)on the primary cultured cortical neurons transfected with APP595/596 gene and its underlying mechanism.Methods Neonatal mouse cortical neurons were transfected with APP595/596 gene to establish AD cell models for the further study.Then,the cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay,and the leakage of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)was assayed by LDH kit to evaluate the injury degree.Transferase-mediated nick end labeling(TUNEL)was used to evaluate the cell apoptosis.The expression of β-amyloid peptide(Aβ)and β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1(BACE1)was measured by immunofluorescence,while the miRNA-107 was measured by RT-PCR.Results Compared to model group,Ost could significantly improve the neurons viability,decrease the LDH release and prevent the apoptosis.Ost also inhibited the expression of Aβ and BACE1 at protein level,while enhanced the expression of miRNA-107 at gene level.Conclusion Ost plays a neuroprotective role in neurons transfected with APP595/596 gene in part through up-regulating miRNA-107.
