Journal of Chinese Physician 2015;17(5):719-721
Objective To design fast cluster indicators (FCIs) and compare it with the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) scoring to judge the value and prognosis of sepsis patients.Methods Based on 33 cases of severe infected patients as samples for this study from September 2013 to July 2014 in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in the Second People's Hospital of YiYang,and with the Procalcitonin (PCT),lactic acid (LAC),D-Dimer (DD) and base excess (BE) as the indicators,as well as drawing on the APACHE Ⅱ scoring system ideological,as is to design the FCIs to evaluate the prognosis of patients with severe infection.Results After treatment,the survivals were 17 cases,16 patients were died out of 33,and the mortality rate was 48.5%.The sensitivity and specificity of fast cluster indicator that predict patient mortality rates were 75% and 71%,respectively.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of FCIs assessing the prognosis of patients with severe infections was 0.895,which was higher than the value 0.721 of APACHE Ⅱ scoring.Conclusions FCIs scoring has a certain significance and guiding role in clinical practice.
2.Application of finite element analysis in the biomechanical evaluation of spine structure and lumbar fusion
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(30):-
Finite element analysis can analyze the stress and strain change of object with complex shape,structure,constitution and load condition,and is widely applied to spinal biomechanical studies due to its controllability,reproducibility and versatility in mechanics tests.The article briefly introduced several finite element analysis software,summarized the mechanical characteristics of vertebral body,intervertebral disc,accessories and the ligament and muscle around the spine,and summarized research achievements of finite element analysis in lumbar fusion,concerning the biomechanics of Cage,its influence on lumbar fusion and related surgery choice,dynamic fusion,artificial intervertebral disc and the biomechanical variation of different fusion style after spinal tumor vertebrectomy.Finite element analysis can help understand the spine biomechanics and provide biomechanical reference for lumbar fusion choice.

Objective To establish a method for the determination of naringin in Gongning Granule, Methods The sample was extracted with methyl and the chromatographic conditions were as follows: Kromasil C18 chromatographic column(250 mm?4.6 mm ,5 ?m)with a mobile phase of methyl and 1 %acetic acid (35.5 ∶64.5),the detection wavelength at 283 nm and the flow rate being 1.0mL?min-1. Results A linearity of naringin in Gongning Granule was obtained in the range of 0.0980 ?g to 0.980 ?g,r=0.9997 (n=6).The average recovery was 98.7 %and RSD=1.96 %(n=6). Conclusion This method is easy,sensitive and accurate for the determination of naringin in Gongning Granule.

Objective To discuss the selection of indication for using uterine artery perfusion and embolization in tubal pregnancy. Methods Fifty one cases of tubal pregnancy were treated by superselective trans-uterine artery (TUA) catheterization with perfusing Methorexate (MTX) and then embolized the uterine arteries by gelfoam. The comparisons among serum P-HCG concentration, abdominal bleeding and the size of the ectopic mass could state the importance of the indication selection preprocedurally. Results Forty eight of the 51 cases were cured by this method, when the ectopic mass size≥5 cm, the cure rate was low, 33.33% (P

Objective To find out the difference in expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and neuron-specific enolase in hippocampi and olfactory bulb of Alzheimer's disease rats,and the relationship between olfactory and Alzheimer's disease.Methods Adult rats,the expression of GFAP and NSE in hippocampi and olfactory bulb was measured by immuhistochemical after a single intracerebroventricular injection of ?-amyloid peptide,and change of these protein in olfactory.Results Comparing the hippocampi and olfactory of model and control,the expression of GFAP in model group increased evidently,the expression of NSE descended animals.Conclusion There is significant difference in olfactory system between Alzheimer's disease model and control group rats.

OBJECTIVE To study the Candida infection,its clinical distribution and susceptibility of antifungal agents in hospital from Jan 2002 to Dec 2006.METHODS The data of the patients′ age,samples,species distribution and antifungal sensitivity tests were retrospectively analyzed with WHONET 5.RESULTS A total of 501 cases with Candida were detected in these five years,from them 89 were older than 60,accounted for 68.1%.sputum was predominant samples,accounted for 66.1%.The main strain species were Candida albicans and C.tropicalis,C.glabrata,which were accounted for 56.1%,28.5% and 8.8%,respectively.C.albicans isolates were susceptible to four antifungal agents.CONCLUSIONS The Candida infection in hospital is increasing year by year,most of them occurred in old people.The most common infection site is lower respiratory tract.Fluconazole(FLU) is good susceptible to Candida.

Objective To modify the posterior procedures for severe thoracolumar fractures. Methods Twenty-one patients of thoracolumbar fractures with over 40% of anterior compression were studied. After reduction and fixation with short-segment pedicle instrumentation was performed, the transpedicular vertebroplasty of the fractured vertebrae with injectable self-setting calcium phosphate cement was carried out under fluoroscopic guidance. All patients were checked with X-ray and CT scanning before and after operation. They were followed up for 4-23 months (average 13 months). Results All patients obtained successful surgery without neurological complications or foreign body response. On CT scanning, the fractured vertebrae were well augmented in 13 cases and insufficiently augmented in 4 cases. Slight extrusion of cement into paravertebral tissue occurred in 4 cases without clinical symptoms. All patients were perfectly recovered without notable correction loss or implant failure during the follow-up. Conclusions Reduction and fixation with short-segment pedicle instrumentation followed by vertebroplasty with injectable self-setting calcium phosphate cement is a promising procedure for severe thoracolumbar fractures.
