Adolescent scoliosis is spinal deformity happening in early adolescent or before bone mature.It can affect the body figure and appearance of children,threat the physical and mental health of the youth.Serious malformation even leads to heart and lung function failure.This paper summarizes the causes of disease incidence,the incidence situation in domestic and abroad,census method,the latest gene chip technique,the latest progress of treatment,and investigates the method of early prevention,early diagnosis,and early treatment.For younger children,non-surgical treatment such as brace could be used to avoid scoliosis aggravating.

Objective To investigate the changes of histamine receptors in bladder before and after the treatment by sodium hyaluronate in rats of interstial cystitis (IC). Methods Twenty IC model rats were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 10 for each group.The bladders in experimental group were filled with sodium hyaluronate, while the rats in control group were executed at once. The bladders were dyed with HE staining, special staining and immunohistochemistry staining to count the number of mononuclear cells and mast cells and observe the changes of histamine receptors. Results In experimental group,the counts of mononuclear cells and mast cells were 12.20±2.48 and 2.90±0.87 respectively;the numbers of average optical of histamine receptor H1, H2, H3, H4 were 0.015±0.007, 0.006±0.001, 0.007±0.004, 0.061±0.026 , respectively. In control group, the counts of mononuclear cells and mast cells were 23.90±3.07 and 7.08±1.23;the numbers of average optical of histamine receptor H1, H2, H3, H4 were 0.055±0.033, 0.031±0.023, 0.033±0.017, 0.091±0.059, respectively. The differences of mononuclear cells and mast cells were significant between the 2 groups(P＜0.01). The differences of average optical of histamine receptor H1, H2, H3 between the 2 group were significant (P＜0.05), while the difference of histamine receptor H4 was not significant(P＞0.05). Conclusion Histamine receptor H1, H2, H3 take part in the development of IC, the antagons may be used for the treament of IC.

e combina-tion of protamine sulfate and potassium chloride to establish interstitial cystitis animal model is reliable and feasible. Researchers can choose the right time of irrigation based on the intent of the experiment.

OBJECTIVEWe used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to explore the effects of noxious coldness and non-noxious warmth on the magnitude of cerebral cortex activation during intraoral stimulation with water.

METHODSSix male and female subjects were subjected to whole-brain fMRI during the phasic delivery of non-noxious hot (23 °C) and no- xious cold (4 °C) water intraoral stimulation. A block-design blood oxygenation level-dependent fMRI scan covering the entire brain was also carried out.

RESULTSThe activated cortical areas were as follows: left pre-/post-central gyrus, insula/operculum, anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), orbital frontal cortex (OFC), midbrain red nucleus, and thalamus. The activated cortical areas under cold condition were as follows: left occipital lobe, premotor cortex/Brodmann area (BA) 6, right motor language area BA44, lingual gyrus, parietal lobule (BA7, 40), and primary somatosensory cortex S I. Comparisons of the regional cerebral blood flow response magnitude were made among stereotactically concordant brain regions that showed significant responses under the two conditions of this study. Compared with non-noxious warmth, more regions were activated in noxious coldness, and the magnitude of activation in areas produced after non-noxious warm stimulation significantly increased. However, ACC only significantly increased the magnitude of activation under noxious coldness stimulation.

CONCLUSIONResults suggested that a similar network of regions was activated common to the perception of pain and no-pain produced by either non-noxious warmth or noxious coldness stimulation. Non-noxious warmth also activated more brain regions and significantly increased the response magnitude of cerebral-cortex activation compared with noxious coldness. Noxious coldness stimulation further significantly increased the magnitude of activation in ACC areas compared with noxious warmth.

Objective To investigate the polymorphism of Brucella melitensis biovar 3 ( B.melitensis biovar 3) strains isolated from Guangdong province .Methods PCR assays followed by agar-ose gel electrophoresis and capillary electrophoresis based on the multiple locus variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) were performed to analyze 43 clinic isolates of B.melitensis biovar 3 strains isolated from clinical patients in Guangdong province .Results MLVA typing showed that the simi-larities of the analyzed locus among 43 strains of Brucella ranged from 68.2%to 100%.32 genotypes identi-fied among the isolates were identical (100%similarity).27 out of 43 strains (62.8%) were single geno-types, while the other 16 strains (37.2%) belonged to 5 other genotypes with 2 to 5 strains in each of them . Conclusion B.melitensis biovar 3 isolates showed polymorphism distribution in Guangdong province as in-dicated by MLVA typing analysis .Single-genotype isolates accounted for 62.8% of all studied strains.No predominant genotype was found among all isolates .

Objective To study the application value of the combined detection of serum HE4 ,CAl25 ,CA72‐4 and IL‐6 in the di‐agnosis of ovarian malignant tumor .Methods The serum levels of CA125 and CA72‐4 were determined by ECLI ,and the serum levels of HE4 and IL‐6 were determined by ELISA in 32 patients with ovarian cancer ,56 patients with benign ovarian disease and 40 healthy controls .The detection results were performed the statistical analysis .Results The serum levels of HE4 ,CAl25 ,CA72‐4 and IL‐6 in the ovarian cancer group were significantly higher than those in the other two groups with statistically significant differ‐ences(P< 0 .01) ;the sensitivity of CA125 detection in the single index detections was highest(75 .0% ) ,the specificity of HE4 was highest(83 .9% ) ,the highest diagnostic efficiency of single index detection was 79 .5% .The sensitivity ,specificity and efficiency of the combined detection for diagnosis were 96 .9% ,71 .4% and 80 .7% .Except the specificity ,the sensitivity and diagnostic efficien‐cy of the combined detection were higher than those of any one of single index detection .Conclusion The combined detection of se‐rum HE4 ,CAl25 ,CA72‐4 and IL‐6 could increase the diagnostic efficiency of ovarian cancer and conduces to the diagnosis and help to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ovarian malignancies .

Objective To investigate the changes of 4 histamine receptors (H1R, H2R, H2R and H4 R)in interstitial cystitis on animal experimental models. Methods Thirty female SD rats (250-300 g) were randomly divided into 2 groups as follows: 20 in experimental group and 10 in control group. The experimental group was filled with protamine sulfate+ potassium chloride to create interstitial cystitis model, the control group was sacrificed directly. At the end of the experiment, the bladders of all these SD rats were studied by the immunohistochemistry staining and the value of their mean absorbance (-A) was calculated by IPP4.5 image analysis software. The SPSS 11.5 was used to analyze the differences between the groups. Results Four kinds of histamine receptors mainly expressed in the bladder epithelium. In the experimental group, the (-A) of H1 R was 0. 054±0.031, the of H2R was 0.032±0.021, the (-A) of H3R was 0.047±0.033 and the (-A) of H4R was 0. 149±0. 191,respectively. In the control group, the A of H1R was 0. 017±0. 011, the (-A) of H2R was 0. 018±0. 015, the (-A) of H3R was 0. 014±0. 011, the (-A) of H4R was 0. 060±0.039, respectively. In contrast,the A of H1 R, H2 R and H3R in experimental group was increased significantly(P＜0.05); there was no significant change in (-A) of H4R expression(P＞0.05). Conclusions H1, H2 and H3 receptors in rat model interstitial cystitis bladder epithelium have increased and it indicates H1 R, H2R and H3R may be related to interstitial cystitis. H3 R may be a new treatment target of interstitial cystitis.
