Objective To explore the value of ultrasonographic diagnosis of deltoid contracture (DC). Methods A total of 37 children with bilateral asymmetric shoulder were reviewed retrospectively, and 8 cases with 9 shoulders were surgically confirmed DC. The results of the ultrasonography and surgery were compared. Results The sensitivity of ultrasonographic diagnosis of DC was 88.89% and specificity was 100%. No statistically significant difference of contracture thickness measurement was found between surgery and ultrasonography. Ultrasonographic findings of DC in children included hyperechoic areas (7 cases) or hypoechoic area (1 case). Conclusion Ultrasounogrphy is an effective method for diagnosis of DC in children.

Objective To isolate and classigy the bacteriophages specific to Pseudomonas aetuginosa and to investigate biofilm control efficaey of the isolated virulent phages.Methods With P. aeruginosa clinical strains as indicators.bacteriophages were isolated by screening difierent environmental samples.Classification of the isolated phages was done with the methods of restriction fragment analysis of phage genome and host range analysis.Transmission electron microscopy(TEM)was used in phage morphology study.In biogilm control tests,TJC729 was used as the jndicator strain to study the biofilm control efficacy of the isolated phages.Results Total 13 lytic phages specific to P.aeruginosa strains were isolated and named as C1-C13.According to the result of restriction fragment analysis.all 13 phages were double-stranded DNA viruses and could be divided into eight groups.Host range experiments were conducted with 5 laboratory strains and 12 clinical strains of P. aeruginosa.The same infection profiles were observed among phage C1 and C13,C6 and C7,and C9 and C11,respectively.While the remaining 7 phages each had different unique infection profile.Phage C1 was selected randomly to study its morphology.The obtained images showed that phage C1 had an icosahedral head with a non-contractile tail,belonging to the Siphoviridae family.Compared with the single phage,phage cocktail had the best effect on biofilm control.Further experiment results showed that phage C1.C10 and C12 can destroy biofilm after treatment of the biofilm for 24 h.The biofilm amounts were deceased to 32.7%,57.6%and 32.8%of the initial values,respectively.Conclusion Thirteen virulent phages specific to P. aeruginosa had been isolated.The phages could significantly inhibit the biofilm formation and had a certain degree of damage on the biofilm.The results suggested an alternative method for the treatments of P.aeruginosa infections.

Objective · To explore the relationship of adipose chemerin and its receptor chemerinR gene expression to obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods · Twenty-four patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery were enrolled, and were divided into normal glucose regulation-normal weight group (NGR-NW), normal glucose regulation-overweight/obesity group (NGR-OW/OB), and type 2 diabetic overweight/obesity group (T2DMOW/OB) according to the body mass index (BMI). The levels of chemerin and chemerinR mRNA were detected by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR).Results · Compare to the NGR-NW group, the chemerin mRNA levels of abdominal subcutaneous and omental fat were significantly increased in the NGR-OW/OB and T2DM-OW/OB group (P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the chemerin mRNA levels of abdominal omental fat were positively correlated with BMI, fasting insulin (FINS), triglyceride and serum chemerin (r=0.577, r=0.561, r=0.472, r=0.623, P<0.05 for all). The chemerin mRNA levels of abdominal subcutaneous fat showed significant positive correlation with BMI, FINS and serum chemerin (r=0.692, r=0.513, r=0.497, P<0.05 for all). Conclusion · The chemerin mRNA levels of abdominal subcutaneous and omental fat were positively correlated with BMI, FINS and serum chemerin, suggesting that the chemerin gene may play a crucial role in the pathophysiological mechanism of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Objective To establish a method for the determination of chlorogenic acid in Fuyanqing perfusate (FP). Methods The sample was extracted with methyl and the chromatographic condition were as follows: C18 chromatographic column (250 mm? 4.6 mm,5 ? m),a mobile phase of methyl alcohol and water and methyl acid(30 ∶ 70 ∶ 1),the detection wavelength at 327 nm and the flow rate being 0.5 mL/min.Results A linearity of chlorogenic acid in FP was obtained in the range of 0.16 ? g～ 0.58 ? g,r=0.9996(n=6).The average recovery was 98 % and RSD =1.0% (n=6).Conclusion This method is easy,sensitive and accurate for the determination of chlorogenic acid in FP.

Blood glucose control is not only the key issue of diabetes management, but also one of the goals of diabetes treatment.Pain associated with self-monitoring of blood glucose(SMBG)results in poor compliance with blood glucose testing.With the advent of continuous glucose monitoring(CGM), it is more convenient to detect blood glucose and realize dynamic glucose monitoring.Continuous glucose monitoring(CGM)is widely used in adults with diabetes, and the usage among children is also increasing.Many studies have conducted clinical trials on the use of CGM in children with diabetes, initially confirming the use of CGM in children with diabetes.However, some studies still have controversies on the use of CGM in children.In this paper, the clinical studies of CGM in children′s diabetes in recent years were summarized to further understand the application of CGM and its combined insulin pump in pediatrics.

Based on talented person admittance standard and train objective, considering student's cognition characteristic and the professional rank test and so on in higher vocational education rehabilitation treatment technology, this paper explored reform and construction of rehabilitation assessment.

Objective To investigate the independent risk factors of cerebral white matter lesions (WML) of different degrees in the elderly aged 80 years and over,and provide the evidences for forecasting the prognosis of WML.Methods Brain magnetic resonance images (MRI) findings in 151 people aged 74 to 93 years were collected and analyzed.According to the severity of WML in brain MRI using the Fazekas Scale,the persons were divided into non-WML (control) group,mildWML (grade 1 WML) group and moderate-to-severe WML (grade 2 WML) group.The cognitive score,vascular risk factors,cerebral hemodynamic and arteriosclerotic index,and radiological features were compared among the three groups.Subsequent one-way ANOVA and multivariate logistic analysis were performed to determine the statistically significant factors and the independent risk factors among groups.Results The statistically significant factors with one-way ANOVA analysis among the three groups were cognitive performance (F = 48.595,P = 0.000),hypertension (x2 =7.052,P=0.029),cigarette history (x2 = 19.476,P= 0.000),cholesterol (TC) (F= 3.086,P=0.049),Crouse score (F=3.968,P=0.021) and multiple cerebral atrophy indexes.When compared with control group,cigarette history (OR 2.031,95%CI 1.244-1.317),lacunar infarction (LI)numbers (OR 2.031,95%CI 1.316-4.015) and cholesterol (OR 1.610,95%CI 0.972-2.668) were independent risk factors in grade 1 WML group (all P＜0.05).The independent risk factors between grade 1 and 2 WML group were cognitive performance (OR 0.276,95%CI 0.143-0.532),cigarette history (OR 2.262,95% CI 1.260-4.059),and sylvian fissure ratio (SFR) (OR 1.954,95% CI 1.013-3.768) (all P＜0.05).The independent risk factors between the grade 2 WML group and control group were cognitive performance (OR 0.091,95%CI 0.030-0.273),bicoudate ratio (BCR)(OR 2.511,95%CI 1.147-5.499),Crouse score (OR 2.304,95%CI1.127-4.712)and LI numbers (OR 2.200,95%CI 1.028-4.707) (all P＜0.05).Conclusions Mild WML patients have no significant abnormalities in cognition,brain atrophy and cerebral atherosclerosis.Moderate to severe WML patients manifest remarkable cognitive disorder,cerebral atherosclerosis and brain atrophy.Compared with the controls,cognitive performance,BCR,Crouse score,LI numbers were the independent risk factors for moderate-severe WML patients.
