Objective To study the changes of hemodynamic parameters and electrolytes observed within 72 hours of hypothermic therapy in porcine model of cardiac ventricular fibrillation after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR ) in order to provide clinical basis for safe application of mild hypothermia.Methods After typical ventricular fibrillation (VF)for 8 minutes,the survival animals were randomly (random number)divided into two groups,namely normothermia group and hypothermia group. Upon restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC ),swine of the hypothermic group was treated by endovascular cooling device at a rate of 1 ℃/h until 33 ℃ and it was maintained for 12 h,then rewarming was initiated passively at a rate of 0.5 ℃/h until 38 ℃.The neurologic deficit scores (NDS)of swine were used to evaluate neurological function at 24 h and 72 h after recovery.Serum levels of potassium and sodium were measured at 0.5 h,6 h,12 h,24 h and 72 h after recovery.Results ROSC (restoration of spontaneous circulation)rate was 84.2%.The hypothermia group had higher survival rates at 24 h (75%) and 72 h (62.5%)compared to the normothermia group (37.5% and 25%,respectively),(P<0.01 ). There were no significant differences in hemodynamic variables (HR,MAP,CO,PAWP and CVP)between the two groups (P<0.05 ),Serum potassium of the hypothermia group was lower obviously at 24 h after recovery (3.41 ±0.11)(P<0.01),and there were no significant differences in serum sodium at all the intervals,and there were no significant differences in underlying trend of electrolytes changes over time (P>0.05).The mean NDSs at 24 h and 72 h after recovery was 112.5 (98.75 -126.25)and 61 (50-75), respectively,in the hypothermic group,and 230 (225 -235)and 207.5 (165 -250),respectively,in the normothermia group (P <0.01 ).Conclusions Hypothermia has little influence on serum levels of potassium and sodium,and mild hypothermia following resuscitation improves neurological function in the porcine models of cardiac fibrillation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 99Tcm-MIBI SPECT for the differential diagnosis of parotid tumors before treatment.Methods 99Tcm-MIBI SPECT imaging of the parotid region was obtained in 32 patients with parotid tumors before surgery.Early and delayed 99Tcm-MIBI imaging were performed in all patients and the diagnosis was confirmed by pathological results after surgery.The ratio of radioactivity between the tumor and opposite side of normal parotid tissue (T/N) was measured.Fisher exact probability test and t test were used for statistical analysis.Results The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of 99Tcm-MIBI SPECT imaging for the differential diagnosis of parotid tumor were 90.00％ (9/10),86.36％ (19/22) and 87.50％ (28/32),respectively.Among 22 patients who had benign tumors,19(86.36％) showed negative findings,and the other 3 ( 13.64％ ) patients showed false positive results.In 10 patients with malignant tumors,1 ( 10.00％ ) had false negative findings,and all the other 9 (90.00％)patients showed positive results.The difference between the benign and malignant groups was statistically significant (P =0.00018 ).In the early images,the T/N ratios of benign and malignant parotid tumors were 1.45 ±0.38 and 1.65 ±0.63 (t =20.4,P＜0.01),respectively; and in the delayed images,the ratios were 1.43 ± 0.56 and 1.77 ± 0.59 ( t =2.4,P ＜ 0.05 ),respectively.Conclusion 99Tcm-MIBI SPECT imaging might be useful for the differential diagnosis of parotid tumors before surgery.

Objective To study the clinical features of the extra exocrine gland symptoms of primary Sjgren syndrome(PSS) in elderly people. Methods Clinical data of 106 cases of elderly and 120 cases of non elderly PSS were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 203 cases(89 8%, 203/226) manifested symptoms of extra exocrine glands, in which elderly and non elderly groups accounted for 106(100 0%) and 97(80 8%), respectively. The occurrence rates of arrhythma due to hypokalemia, peripheral neuritis(P0 05). Conclusions The common symptoms of PSS in patients, especially the elderly patients, are extra exocrine gland manifestations as the main complaints though the PSS is a systemic disease. These must be differenciated in order to avoid misdiagnosis.

According to bias in codon choice of Pichia pastoris, The phytase phyA gene from Aspergillus niger N25 was mutated without changing its amino acid sequence. The expression plasmid pPIC9k-phyAm was constructed and transformed into GS115 strain. Positive clones,of which the chromosomes were integrated with phyA gene,were identified by the phenotype and PCR. SDS-PAGE analysis suggust that the size of enzyme protein of the expression product was about 70.15kDa.Southern blotting analysis to the yeast transformants showed that phyA gene was intergrated into the chromosome genome. The phytase activity of PP-NP m-4-4 with codons optimized reached 136 000U/ml in malt wort culture medium after being induced with 36h, which was the 2.8 times of the original strain PP-NPm-8.

Objective To investigate and analyze the monitoring status of birth defects of perinatal infants in Hakka of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region,and to provide evidence for reducing the incidence of birth defects and improving prevention decision for the quality of birth.Methods The data of 51 528 cases of perinatal birth defects monitoring were analyzed in Bobai and Luchuan counties in 2015.Results The distribution of birth defects in the perinatal infants of Hakka was more than 75.14%,28.8% of the birth defects occurred in 28 weeks,51 528 cases of perinatal birth in hospital,birth defects of ≥28 weeks in 384 cases.The incidence rate of birth defects was 28.5%, the rate of birth was 7.45‰.The birth defect of ≥28 weeks was diagnosed,35 cases were fetal edema syndrome, accounted for 9.11%.34 cases were congenital heart disease,accounted for 8.85%,30 cases were cleft lip with cleft palate,accounted for 7.81%.Congenital hydrocephalus in 5 cases,accounted for 1.30%;other in 251 cases,accoun-ted for 65.35%.The diagnosed time distribution of birth defects of ≥28 weeks:prenatal diagnosis accounted for 21.18%,postnatal 7 days accounted for 78.82%.The outcome of ≥28 weeks of perinatal birth defects in Hakka:live birth accounted for 73.18%,fetal death accounted for 20.57%,stillbirth accounted for 1.30%,seven days of death accounted for 4.94%.Conclusion The perinatal birth defects in Hakka is live births to the main,the prevention of perinatal birth defects in children live birth measures should be strengthened,the detection of birth defects should be strengthened and the pregnancy of artificial birth defects should be terminated,so as to improve the quality of the birth population.

Objectives:To observe the role of hypocaloric nutrition support after major intestinal surgery. Methods:Forty cases after intestinal surgical procedure were randomly divided into hypocaloric group ( n =20),peripheral parenteral nutrition support of 15 kcal/(kg?d)+3 g Nitrogen/d) for 5 days and control group ( n =20,general infussion supports). Postoperative nitrogen balance, plasma proteins and body composition were detected. Results: Nitrogen balance of hypocaloric group was found to be improved, plasma proteins increased and body composition loss decreased. Conclusions:The hypocaloric nutrition support is a selected method for postoperative support.

BACKGROUNDFor some high myopic patients with posterior iris bowing, laser periphery iridectomy should be performed pre-operation to prevent pupil block glaucoma if these patients would have phakic intraocular lens implantation to correct high myopia. So we had the opportunity to analysis the influence of laser iridectomy on posterior iris bowing.

METHODSEighteen high myopic patients with posterior iris bowing (11 males and 7 females) were involved in the study in Beijing Tongren Eye Center from March 2008 to July 2008. Phakic intraocular lens were implanted to correct their ametropia. The mean age was (32 ± 6) years (range, 25 - 40 years). The center anterior chamber depth, the pupil diameter, the posterior iris bowing depth and the anterior chamber angle were measured with anterior segment coherence tomography (AS-OCT) under the normal condition, myosis condition induced by 2% pilocarpine, laser periphery iridectomy after myosis, and 2% pilocarpine eluting condition respectively.

RESULTSThere was no significant difference of center anterior chamber depth under the four conditions (P = 0.512). The pupil constricted after pilocarpine (P = 0.001). After laser iridectomy performed and pilocarpine eluted, posterior iris bowing depth reduced more than that in normal condition (P = 0.003). The anterior chamber angle reduced significantly after laser periphery iridectomy and pilocarpine eluted (P = 0.012).

CONCLUSIONLaser periphery iridectomy can reduce the posterior iris bowing, which might be due to the change in aqueous circulate pathway.
