Methods 40 cases of healthy children were selected and included in the control group, 40 cases of mild, moderate and severe obese children in the obese group, moderately obese group, obese group given category; metformin in obese children orally for 3 months, then in each group of body mass index (BMI), the learning situation of adipose derived hormones, blood glucose levels were detected and compared. Results Compared the condition of blood glucose metabolism and body weight obviously, obesity group and control group before treatment there are very significant differences after treatment, the obese group appeared to be improved, indicates that the difference is obvious(P<0.05). Compare the hormone levels of serum leptin and adiponectin are visible in before the treatment and health examination Significant differences after the treatment showed some improvement, but the resistin in the treatment had no obvious improvement. Conclusion The application of metformin improves hyperinsulinemia in obese children with sugar metabolism, visible analysis of serum adipose derived hormones, the patients with improvement of glucose metabolism has a positive effect, while improving the serum hormone level, reduce patient weight (BMI), so it is worthy of clinical use.

Objectives To analyze the clinical features and long-term follow-up results of neuroblastoma (NB) without chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and to provide evidence for further improvement of treatment. Methods The clinical data of children diagnosed with NB who received operation during January 2005 to December 2015 was retrospectively analyzed, and the long-term follow-up results were evaluated. Results In 57 cases of NB, 43 cases (81.1％) were in stage 1, 8 cases were in stage 2 and 2 cases were in stage 4S. The median age at diagnose was 7 months (11 days - 10 years and 11 months). There were 47/51 cases had the pathological type with a good prognosis (accounting for 92.2％). FISH was detected in 1/49 case which had the amplification at greater than 10 copies. 56/57 cases underwent surgical resection of the primary tumor, 50 cases of which were completely resected, and 3 cases had very good partial remission after tumor resection. The abdominal mass was found in the uterus in 1 case, and surgical operation was not performed and the imaging was regularly checked for follow-up , and the mass subsided completely at 7-month-old. The median follow-up time was 36 months (4 - 99 months). Five children were lost to follow-up and the median time of follow-up was 19 months (4 - 45 months). One child in stage 4S relapsed at 1 year of follow-up, 2 cases in stage 1 relapsed at 6 months of follow-up. Five years event free survival rates (EFS) in all patients were 94.6％, and overall survival rate (OS) of the 5 years was 100％. Conclusions Children younger than 18 months without MYCN amplification in the stages 1 and 2 are safe by surgical treatment alone with good prognosis. Simple surgical treatment can also be extended to all age groups of NB without MYCN amplification in the stages 1 or 2.

Objective To search the literature of randomized controlled trials on the treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse with adjuvant materials and compare the efficacy and safety of anterior vaginal wall prolapse repair with and without adjuvant materials.Methods Searches were made in the databases of Pubmed,Embase and Ovid for randomized controlled trials from 1980 to 2012 on the treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse with adjuvant materials.Comprehensive meta-analyses were conducted with Revman 5.1 analysis software to compare vaginal wall anatomy failure rate,operative duration,intraoperative bleeding volume,postoperative visceral injury,pelvic pain,urinary infection,material exposure,material erosion,de novo urinary incontinence and de novo dyspareunia in the adjuvant materials repair and repair without adjuvant materials groups.Results A total of 20 randomized controlled trials including 2313 participants were retrieved.The shortest average follow-up period was 3 months and the longest 36 months.Compared with repair without adjuvant materials,the application of adjuvant materials in anterior vaginal wall repair reduced vaginal front wall prolapse anatomy failure rate lower anatomy failure rate,had a longer operating duration,more peri-operative bleeding and lower urinary tract infection rate.The comprehensive effects were as follows:P＜0.01,RR =0.51,95％CI:0.41-0.64;P ＜0.01,weighted mean differenece (WMD) =16.25,95％ CI:8.07-24.43;P =0.01,WMD =35.00,95％ CI:6.90-63.11 ;P =0.03,RR =0.51,95％ CI:0.28-0.93,respectively,but the comparison of two groups around in visceral injury,postoperative pain,de novo stress urinary incontinence and de novo dyspareunia had no significant differences (P =0.07,0.58,0.54 and 0.67) and the average materiale exposure and rosion rate were 4.37％ (27/618) and 7.69％ (24/312) respectively.Conclusions The application of adjuvant materials in anterior vaginal wall repair can improve the postoperative recurrence.But no obvious differences exist in the incidence of complications in anterior repair with adjuvant materials and repair without adjuvant materials.
