Laryngeal cartilage dysplasia,also known as congenital laryngeal cartilage softening or con-genital laryngeal stridor,a clinical common laryngeal disease in infant. It is often shown as airflow makes special sound through larynx or tracheal stenosis,also known as laryngeal stridor. Obstruction can be caused by airway lumen or external pressure. Airway obstruction position can be located in the nose,pharynx and larynx and tra-chea. Laryngeal stridor can be caused by many diseases,such as congenital laryngeal stridor,acute laryngeal,or acute laryngotracheobronchitis,respiratory tract foreign bodies,congenital laryngeal stenosis and laryngeal web, etc. The pathogenesis,pathology,clinical manifestation,diagnosis and treatment are reviewed.

Tumor 2014;34(2):169-174
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NC) for locally advanced gastric cancer by Meta-analysis. Methods: A computer-based online search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc), National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Academic Journals Full-text Database (CJFD), Wanfang Data, China Conference Paper Database (CCPD) and China Cancer Database was performed. In accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were selected. After evaluating the quality of the included studies and extracting the data, a Meta-analysis was perfomed by using RevMan 5.0 software. Results: A total of 8 RCTs including 1 260 patients were included in this Meta-analysis. The resection rate [odds ratio (OR): 1.04, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.76-1.43; P = 0.79], radical resection rate (OR: 1.02, 95% CI: 0.57-1.83; P = 0.94) and perioperative mortality (OR: 1.06, 95% CI: 0.56-2.00; P = 0.86) beween the neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgical operation group and surgical operation alone group were not statistically different. The difference in one-year survival rate was not statistically significant (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 0.79-1.41; P = 0.72) between the two groups, but the 2-year (OR: 1.33, 95% CI: 1.03-1.72; P = 0.03) and 3-year (OR: 1.61, 95% CI: 1.23-2.09; P = 0.000 5) survival rates of the neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgical operation group were higher than those of the surgical operation alone group. Conclusion: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer may not increase the resection rate and the operation risk, and it can improve the long-term survival rate.

Objective: To evaluate the efifcacy and safety on clopidogrel combining proton pump inhibitor (PPI) for treating the patient after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by Meta analysis.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and conference databanks, the retrieval time ended at 2014-03 and 14 references were selected for Meta analysis by RevMan 5.2 software. A total of 52274 patients were enrolled and divided into 2 groups, Control group, the patients received clopidogrel, n=43809 and Combination group, the patients received clopidogrel and PPI n=8465. The efifcacy and safety were compared between 2 groups.
Results: Compared with Control group, the patients in Combination group showed increased all cause death rate (OR=1.20, 95% CI 1.05-1.37), re-myocardial infarction (MI) (OR=1.19, 95% CI 1.07-1.33) and in-steut re-vascularization (OR=1.22, 95% CI 1.08-1.39), all P<0.05; while the MACE (OR=1.29, 95% CI 0.98-1.69), in-stent thrombosis (OR=1.22, 95% CI 0.97-1.54) and gastro- intestinal bleeding (OR=0.95, 95% CI 0.55-1.67) were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05. Further analysis found that PPI (such as omeprazole and esomeprazole) could compete the CYP2C19 enzyme location of clopidogrel, increase the risk of cardiovascular events and decrease the gastrointestinal protection.
Conclusion: Clopidogrel combining PPI may increase the risk of all cause death, MI, in-stent revascularization and decrease the gastrointestinal protection in patients after PCI, especially for omeprazole and esomeprazole which may compete the CYP2C19 enzyme location of clopidogrel.

To evaluate the differences of Ophiopogonjaponicus from different cultivations, the metabolomics based method was conducted to compare the effects of Hangmaidong and Chuanmaidong (Chinese name) on plasma endogenous metabolites of normal rats. Data were collected by ultra performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS), and were analyzed by multivariate statistical method, such as Principal Component Analysis and Orthogonal Signal Correction Partial Least Square Discriminant Analysis. Results revealed that the plasma metabolites profiling of low and middle dose group of Chuanmaidong were similar to the control group, but different from the high dose group obviously. Meanwhile the high, middle and low dose groups of Hangmaidong were different from control group notably, and the difference is dose dependent. Lysophosphatidylcholines, the possible endogenous metabolites which contribute to the classification most significantly, are closely related to cardiovascular system diseases. Compared with the group of Chuanmaidong, Hangmaidong has greater impact on the plasma metabolic profiling of normal rats. Hangmaidong and Chuanmaidong showed significant differences pharmacodynamically.

Objective:
To investigate the development of public health human resource of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCs) in Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2020, so as to put forward the strategies for the talent team construction of CDCs.
Methods:
The general information of personnel of CDCs in Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2020 was collected through China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. A questionnaire survey and a qualitative interview were conducted to collect the data of staffing, talent training, salary and employee turnover, and to analyze the development of the talent team of CDCs.
Results:
By 2020, there were 105 CDCs, including 1 provincial, 11 prefectural and 93 county-level CDCs, and 5 277 staff on-the-job. From 2016 to 2020, the number of staff per 10 000 permanent residents in the province, prefecture and county levels were 0.062-0.070, 0.170-0.188 and 0.585-0.604, respectively, which did not meet the standard for the personnel establishment in Zhejiang CDCs; the proportion of the staff with bachelor degree or above increased from 90.05% to 94.25%; the proportion of the health professionals decreased from 82.91% to 80.01%; the proportion of the staff with senior professional titles increased from 35.20% to 45.25%. The results of the qualitative interview indicated a lack of health professionals and high-end talents, a gap between the approved staffing and post requirements, as well as demands for a stable team and higher pay.
Conclusion
From 2016 to 2020, the structure of educational background, major and professional title among the on-the-job staff of CDCs in Zhejiang Province has been improving; however, the total allocation of human resource is insufficient, and the stability and treatment of staff need to be further improved.
