Objective To design a new presigmoid translabyrinthine keyhole approach assisted by Stryker neuro-navigation system according to the keyhole idea,and observe microscopic anatomy structures, which could be.regarded as the bases of this approach in clinical application.Methods Navigation data were established on 8 cadaveric heads fixed by formalin and perfused intracranial vessels with colored silicone. A 7-cm postauricular C-shaped skin incision as we reported was performed.After elevating the skin flap and musculofascial flap,a 3.5 cm?3.0 cm bone window was made.On skeletonizing the sigmoid sinus,bony lab- yrinth and the canal for facial nerve,the presigmoid retrolabyrinthine,partial labyrinthectomy with petrous api- cectomy,translabyrinthine keyhole approaches were simulated in turn.The length of important structures ex- posed and the angle of vision were measured step by step, and the anatomic structures were observed.Re- suits The approach-correlated bone could precisely be drilled with the aid of neuro-navigation,which could avoid the bewilder in drilling process.The angles of visual field,the length of clivus andⅦcranial nerve were significantly increased after partial labyrinthectomy with petrous apicectomy or all labyrinth removal,but there were no significant difference between partial and all labyrinth removal.The retrolabyrinthine keyhole approach spares hearing and facial function but provided for limited window of petroclival region exposure.The partial labyrinthectomy with petrous apicectomy keyhole approach provided wider exposure to petroclival region,cere- bellopontine angle,prepontine region and posterior cavernous sinus;an area between theⅢ-XI cranial nerves was easily visible with an excellent chance of hearing and facial nerve preservation.The translabyrin- thine keyhole approach,producing more morbidity,provided for greater versatility in treating lesions,added little exposure of petroclival region.Conclusion The presigmoid translabyrinthine keyhole approach,which could provide excellent exposure of the petroclival region,was feasible to be performed in our study.The ap- proach-correlated bone could be precisely removed assisted by neuro-navigation system.The exposure was oh- viously increased hy partial labyrinthectomy with petrous apicectomy or all labyrinthine removal,the former provided an excellent chancre of hearing and facial nerve preservation.

OBJECTIVE:To determine the plasma concentration of mycophenolic acid (MPA) in renal transplantation patients by HPLC-Fluoremetry. METHODS: The sample was subjected to precipitation of proteins using 5% Zinc Sulfate methanol saturated solution,and the supernatant (20 ?L) was taken for sample injection and determination on Zorbax Eclipse XDB C18 with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-methanol-0.2 mol?L-1 glycine buffer(18∶2∶80,pH=9.0) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1. The column temperature was of 25℃;the excitation wavelength(EX) was 342 nm and the emission wavelength(EM) was 425 nm. RESULTS: The linear range of MPA was 0.5～40 mg?L-1,with its lowest limit of quantitation at 0.5 mg?L-1. The methodology recovery was 98.23%～101.00%;the extraction recovery of MPA was 91.56%～94.46%;the intra-day RSD was 0.64%～3.22% and the inter-day RSD was 5.12%～6.10%. CONCLUSION: The method is sensitive,rapid,accurate,convenient,and applicable for the quantitative determination of plasma concentration of MPA in renal transplantation patients.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the impact of the flood disaster on the distribution of Oncomelania snails in 2020 in Wuhu City, to provide scientific basis for formulating the "14th Five-Year Plan" for schistosomiasis control and precise prevention and control measures in Wuhu City. Methods　Systematic sampling combined with environmental spot check was used to investigate the distribution of snails in the historical snail's environment, existing snail's environment and suspected snail's environment in Wuhu City. The collected snails were crushed and examined by microscope to understand the death and life of snails and the infection of Schistosoma japonicum, and the density of live snails and other indicators were counted. Results　The historical area of snails was 14 475.24 hm2 in Wuhu City, and the existing area of snails was 4 588.72 hm2, including 4 210.32 hm2 for lake type and 378.40 hm2 for hill type snails. The average occurrence rate of live snails was 14.59%, and the average density of live snails was 0.50 snails/0.1 m2 in Wuhu City. There were 2 745 snail breeding environments, of which 491 were lake type and 2 254 are hill type, accounting for 17.89% and 82.11% respectively. The existing snail area was mainly distributed in the beaches and ditches, accounting for 92.51% and 6.29% of the existing snail area respectively. Some snails were distributed in ponds, paddy fields and other environments. Among all the historical snail habitats, the majority were class Ⅱ and class Ⅲ environments (which still have the basic conditions for snail breeding at present), with a total of 1 739 sites (blocks), accounting for 63.35% of the total environment. No schistosomiasis infected snails have been found, and the newly discovered and recovered snails cover an area of 268.21 hm2 in Wuhu City. Conclusions　The distribution of snails is extensive in Wuhu City, and snails are mostly distributed in beaches, which are vulnerable to the impact of flood disasters. The spread of Oncomelania snails is found in 30 marshlands in 3 counties in this survey. It is necessary to continue to strengthen snail monitoring after disasters, and take class Ⅱ and class Ⅲ environments as key areas for snail monitoring, so as to find, identify and evaluate the risk of schistosomiasis transmission as soon as possible, to avoid or reduce the impact of flood disasters on the process of schistosomiasis control, and promote the process of schistosomiasis elimination.

Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy of surgery for chronic subdural hematoma assisted by rigid neuroendoscope and its surgical techniques. Methods Clinical data of 161 patients with chronic subdural hematoma from August 2009 to December 2015 was analyzed retrospectively. 74 of them experienced surgeries assisted by rigid neuroendoscope (endoscope group) and other 87 cases were operated without neuroendoscope (routine group) during the same period. Results Although there were significant difference in operative duration between the two groups, complications, ratio of total removal of hematoma after surgery, postoperative inpatient duration and recurrent rate of hematoma were more advantageous in endoscope group. The operative duration of endoscope group with (112.68 ± 34.86) min was longer than that of routine group with (74.11 ± 28.23) min (t = 7.75, P = 0.000), while the postoperative inpatient duration of endoscope group with (8.23 ± 2.01) d was shorter than that of another group with (10.79 ± 5.02) d (t = -4.12, P = 0.000). There were no surgical associated complications in endoscope group, but 1 patient in routine group experienced intracerebral hematoma of frontal lobe and associated aphemia. Total removal of hematoma was confirmed in endoscope group with 98.65% (73/74), which was higher than that in routine group with 86.21% (75/78) (χ2 = 8.34, P = 0.004). Hematoma recurrence was found in 16 cases of routine group (18.39%), but more superiority in endoscope group with 1.35% (χ2 = 12.29, P = 0.000). Outpatient follow-up was carried out in all patients from 6 to 38 months with an average duration of 30.06 months. In 17 cases with recurrent hematoma during follow-up, 15 of them were cured by a second surgery, and another 2 patients were cured by atorvastatin. Conclusion As a simple, safe and effective technique, the application of rigid neuroendoscope during surgery for chronic subdural hematoma is more advantage than routine surgery. A self-made suction with adjustable soft curved tip is suitable for such procedure.
