Objective The existing laryngoscope can not be used to observe the ultrastructure of cells.As a result,doctors always have to conduct biopsies on some patients who can not be diagnosed.The timeconsuming procedure of biopsy may be detrimental to the timely diagnosis and treatment.To solve this problem,we aimed to design the integrative confocal-microscopic hard laryngoscope system (ICMHL).Methods ICMHL system integrated the technique of existing laryngoscope and confocal microscopy,which allows doctors to observe the macrostructure and microstructure of lesions at the same time. Results With the effect of fluorescein sodium,ICMHL system could record the dynamic changes of cells at a rate of 30 fps,and the confocal-microscopic host machine could photograph images at a rate of 230 fps and diagnose invisible minute lesions.Conclusion ICMHL system provides a new,real-time approach for clinic biopsy.

Results The polysaccharide content of pseudostellaria heterophylla produced in Fujian is the highest, Jiangsu and Guizhou are second-class. The polysaccharide content has some disparity in the bodies and in the roots of pseudostellaria heterophylla. Conclusions The polysaccharide content in the bodies differs 1.96% with that in the roots. This experiment provides theory foundation for scientific preparation of pseudostellaria heterophylla.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value and the efficacy of magnetic resonance tomographic angiography(MRTA) in identifying the relationship between nerves and blood vessels of the patients with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia.Methods Clinical and MR data of 280 ITN patients were analyzed retrospectively,and then were compared with operation results by using blind con-trol trials.Results Of the 280 ITN patients,there were a total of 267 patients with neurovascular contact,dubious contact or com-pression in affected sides (positive rate:95.3%),and 66 patients in normal sides (false positive rate:23.6%).And of 120 surgical patients,1 18 were found to have neurovascular contact or compression during the operation.There was significant statistical differ-ence between the neurovascular contact or compression in affected sides and that in normal sides (P <0.05).Using operation results as the gold standard,the specificity,sensitivity and the diagnostic accordance rate of MRTA in diagnosing neurovascular contact or compression were 100%,96.6% and 96.7% respectively.Conclusion MRTA can reliably display the relationship between nerves and blood vessels with higher diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy,thus providing the objective basis for the etiological diagnosis of and surgical treatment for ITN.

Objective:To observe the changes of salivary Lysozyme (LZM),immunoglobulin A (IgA),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),mean grey values (MGVs)of hard tissue of teeth and caries index(CSI)in patients after oral administration of glucocorticoid (GC).Methods:30 patients with oral administration of GC were included.The mixed saliva samples before and after 6 and 12 months of GC treatment were collected.LZMand IgA and LDH were examined.Surface layer panaorama films were taken and MGVs of hard tissue of teeth were measured.The decayed,missing and filled tooth(DMFT),decayed,missing and filled surface (DMFS), CSI were recorded.The same indexes were obtained from 30 age and gender matched healthy subjects as the control data.All statisti-cal analyses were performed using SPSS 17.0 software package.Results:After taking GC orally,the concentration of LZM,IgA and MGVs of hard tissue of teeth in the patients were lower than those in the controls(P <0.05),the LDH concentration,DMFT,DMFS and CSI in the patients were increased(P <0.05).In the patients the MGVs of hard tissue of teeth was negatively correlated with DM-FT,DMFS and CSI(P <0.01),LDH concentration was positively correlated with CSI(P <0.01),the concentration of LZMand IgA were negatively correlated with CSI(P <0.05).No change of the indexes was found in the controls.Conclusion:Oral administration of GC may increase DMFT,DMFS and CSI,decrease MGVs of hard tissue of teeth significantly reduce,the patients may be under higher risk of caries.

Objective To understand the cleaning status of hospital environment,and evaluate the effect of fluo-rescence labeling method plus feedback and training on hospital environmental cleaning effectiveness.Methods A total of 27 departments in a hospital were investigated,1 cleaning staff and 2 inpatients were selected from each de-partment,cleaning staff’s knowledge about cleaning and disinfection of environmental object surfaces,as well as cleaning status of inpatients’wards were surveyed,cleaning efficacy of hospital environmental object surfaces were detected with fluorescence labeling method,the surveyed results were performed timely feedback to clinical depart-ments,training on cleaning and disinfection knowledge was conducted,the effective cleaning rate of environmental object surface before and after the training was compared.Results A total of 27 cleaning staff were surveyed,the correct response rate for cleaning frequency was 96.30% ,awareness rate for section concept was 96.30% ,accuracy rate of cleaning order was 92.59% ,accuracy rate of post-cleaning immersion time of sanitary wares in disinfectant was 85.19% ,accuracy rates of replacing,drying,and repeated immersing wiping cloths were 81.48% ,48.15% ,and 25.93% respectively,rates of correct disinfectant formulating method and mop drying time were both 0. Among 54 investigated patients,bed units and ground of wards of 28 patients were cleaned both 1-2 times/day;bed units of 8 patients had never been wiped,18 patients in 9 departments cannot be conducted statistics due to completely in-consistent responses with the other patients of the same departments. The effective cleaning rates of environmental object surfaces before and after the training were 34.62% and 64.96% respectively,difference was significant(χ2=21.81,P<0.01).Conclusion Fluorescence labeling method plus feedback and training can improve cleaning efficacy of hospital environmental object surfaces.

As a kind of nervous system disease,migraine is more common in female,and has the clinical characteristics of repeated attacks,it is of great significance with standardized treatment in the control of the attacks.Yong female patients with migraine during pregnancy and lactation stage will face lots of special problems because they must first consider the impact of treatment on the mother and fetus.Generally,non-drug therapy is recommended as a first-line treatment,if it is not sufficiently effective,paracetamol is recommended during the pregnancy or sporadic use of sumatriptan,NSAIDs is not recommended during the first or third trimester of pregnancy.Preventive therapy should only be considered in the most severe cases.This review summarized recent documents of the safety of the most used antimigraine medications during pregnancy and breastfeeding,in order to provide treatment recommendations in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the effect of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation on spatial memory and hippocampal cellular prion protein (PrPC) expression and to explore the underlying mechanism of cognitive impairment induced by sleep deprivation.Methods Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were sorted by weight,randomly divided into three groups:the cage control (CC) group,the tank control (TC) group,and the sleep deprivation (SD) group.Rats were deprived of REM sleep for 72 h using the modified multiple platform method.The Morris water maze task was used to assess hippocampal-dependent spatial memory.After sleep deprivation,the rats were sacrificed and their brain tissue was analyzed for PrPC protein expression via Western blotting.Hippocampal neuron axon elongation was examined as well after lentivector-mediated RNA interference (RNAi) of PrPC in primary cultured rat hippocampal neurons.Results REM sleep deprivation for 72 h resulted in spatial memory impairment.The number of times of rats passing through the platform was decreased significantly in the SD group (3.17 ±0.95) compared with the CC (7.17 ±0.95) and TC (6.50 ±0.62) groups (Z =2.026 6,Z =2.026 6,P ＜0.05),the mean value of proximity to the platform (mm) was greater for rats of the SD group (711.74 ± 33.99) compared to those of theCC (592.32±31.31) andTC (580.86±11.36) groups (Z=-2.001 6,Z=-2.4820,P ＜ 0.05).REM sleep deprivation for 72 h resulted in reduced PrPC level in the hippocampus (0.33 ± 0.10) compared with the CC (1.01 ±0.33) and TC (0.96 ±0.27) groups (Z=2.152 9,Z=2.152 9,P ＜ 0.05).In primary cultured hippocampal neurons,axon elongation(μm) was inhibited 7 days in infected neurons (326.28 ± 12.53) compared with normal (555.00 ±30.43) or negative control (558.70 ±23.10) cells (Z =4.768 4,Z =4.877 0,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion These findings suggest that PrPC-mediated hippocampal neuron axon elongation inhibition is probably involved in spatial memory impairment induced by sleep deprivation in rats.
