Plasma aldosterene/renin ratio (ARR) is a sensitive screening test and parameter for primary aldosteronism(PA).The use of ARR leads to a marked increase in the detection rate of PA in the hypertensive population.However,ARR remains a nonstandardized test,and the cutoff value of ARR used in the different studies is varied.Further and systematical studies are needed to improve the accuracy of the test.

ObjectivesTo present the current condition of non-invasive ventilation in newborns in the last ifve years in China, to describe the probable research trends of this ifeld, and to provide the possible research directions in future.Methods Using co-word analysis, the keywords “neonate” and “non-invasive ventilation” were searched in the CNKI database. The search results included 457 articles. Then the relation matrix was built by Excel 2010. Finally the visualized network was drawn by Ucinet 6.3.ResultsNasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) is primarily for the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) in China. Meanwhile, nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nIPPV) and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) are gradually applied in clinic. The application scope of non-invasive ventilation is expanding. Besides the neonatologists, nurses are also paying close attention to non-invasive ventilation.ConclusionsThe visualized network, successfully built by Netdraw, relfects the hot topics and current condition in this ifeld.

Objective Controversy exists over the effects of postoperative chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy in the treatment of rectal cancer. This study aims to evaluate the clinical effect of chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy following radical surgery for stage Ⅱ-Ⅲrectal cancer. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 125 cases of stageⅡ-Ⅲrectal cancer receiving chemo-radiotherapy ( n=69) or chemotherapy ( n=56) after radical surgery. The patients in the chemoradiotherapy group were treated by 3-di-mensional conformal or intensity-modulated radiotherapy at a total irradiation dose of 45-50 Gy/25-28 times and concurrently by XE-LOX/FOLFOX chemotherapy for 4-6 cycles. Those in the chemotherapy group underwent XELOX/FOLFOX chemotherapy only, at the same dose and for the same length of time as the former. Results The therapeutic effect on stageⅡ-Ⅲrectal cancer was not correla-ted with the gender, family history, smoking history, drinking history, high-fat intake, sedentariness, obesity or constipation of the pa-tient, nor with the TNM stage, pathological grade or differentiation degree of the disease. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were sig-nificantly higher in the chemoradiotherapy group (86. 9%, 76. 8%, and 57. 9%) than in the chemotherapy group (71. 4%, 58. 9%, and 39. 3%) (P<0. 05), while the 1-, 2-, and 3-year recurrence rates were remarkably lower in the former (5. 8%, 11. 6%, and 18. 8%) than in the latter (17. 9%, 26. 8%, and 37. 5%) (P<0. 05). Statistically significant differences were found between the che-moradiotherapy and chemotherapy groups in the incidence of diarrhea (39. 1%vs 14. 3%, P<0. 05), but not in such adverse reactions as bone marrow suppression, nausea, or vomiting (P>0. 05). Conclusion For stageⅡ-Ⅲrectal cancer, postoperative chemoradio-therapy is a safe and effective option , which can evidently reduce local recurrence and improve 3-year survival of the patient.

BACKGROUND:Posterior lumbar interbody fusion is a typical therapeutic method of lumbar degenerative disease. Present studies suggested that adjacent segment degeneration occurs after fusion. Recently, more and more scholars paid attention to the development of non-fusion of the spine. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:To compare clinical effects of Dynesys dynamic stabilization system fixation and posterior lumbar interbody fusion in treatment of lumbar degenerative disease. ＜br> METHODS:From July 2009 to July 2011, clinical data of 56 patients with lumbar degenerative disease were retrospectively analyzed. There were 28 cases of Dynesys dynamic stabilization system fixation, and 28 cases of posterior lumbar interbody fusion. Operation time, bleeding volume, and postoperative hospitalization time were compared in both groups. Visual analog scale was used to assess pain. Oswestry disability index was utilized to evaluate clinical effects. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 56 patients were fol owed up for 18-24 months. Visual analog scale and Oswestry disability index scores were significantly improved at 12 months after treatment in both groups (P＜0.01). Significant differences in operation time, bleeding volume, and postoperative hospitalization time were detected between both groups (P＜0.01). Dynesys dynamic stabilization system group was better than posterior lumbar interbody fusion group. Range of motion was better in the Dynesys dynamic stabilization system group than in the posterior lumbar interbody fusion group (P＜0.01). During fol ow-up, nail rope system and polyester sleeve loose were not detectable in the Dynesys dynamic stabilization system group. These results verified that compared with posterior lumbar interbody fusion, Dynesys dynamic stabilization system for lumbar degenerative diseases has a high safety and smal trauma, and can keep advantages of a fixed segment, and exert a certain effect on degeneration of intervertebral disc in the adjacent segment.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of respiratory failure after cervical spinal cord injury ( SCI) . Methods A total of 294 patients with cervical spinal cord injury from January 2009 and December 2013 were analyzed. 52 cases were rolled into the respiratory failure group, 242 cases were rolled into group without respiratory failure. The epidemiological factors in two groups were analyzed to find the the factors of respiratory failure. Results The differences in indexes of smoking, injury reason, injury level, grade of ASIA, fracture dislo-cation were significant (P<0. 05), which suggested the above factors were associated with the occurrence of respiratory failure. The multi-factor regression analysis in respiratory group found that factors such as aged over 60 years, smoking, multiple trauma, fracture dislocation, spinal cord injury above C4 level and pamplegia were of statistically significance (P<0. 10). Conclusion Advanced age, smoking, pample-gia, spinal cord injury above C4 leve, multiple trauma and fracture dislocation are the high risk factors of the respiratory failure after cervical spinal cord injury.
