Objective: To analyze the imaging findings, diagnosis and treatment of central neurocytoma. Methods: The clinical information of 7 cases of central neurocytoma in Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2005 to March 2013 was retrospectively analyzed. The surgical experience was summarized, and the related literatures were reviewed. Results: Of 7 cases, 3 were females and 4 were males; 6 had tumor in anterior 2/3 of the ventricle, 5 originated from septum pellucidum around monro foramen, 1 originated from lateral ventricular wall. The MRI showed that the lesions were mostly hypointense and displayed mixed signals on T1WI images, mainly hypointense and slightly hyperintense signals on T2WI images; most of neurocytomas showed heterogeneous enhancement on dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI images. Six cases underwent gross total resection, 1 case underwent subtotal resection. Two cases received postoperative radiotherapy, 1 case received adjuvant chemotherapy. One case died postoperatively in hospital. Five cases were followed-up, and 1 case was lost to follow-up. The follow-up time was from 15 to 25 months. Four cases had satisfying prognosis, 1 case had hemiplegic paralysis, and no cases had recurrent tumor. Conclusion: Microneurosurgery is the best treatment for central neurocytoma, mastering the technique and key points of operation can achieve significant clinical effectiveness and improve the prognosis.

Objective To study the abnormal expression of P-AKT in follicular thyroid carcinoma and its relationship with angiogenesis. Methods MVD and expressions of P-AKT, VEGF in 40 specimens of FTC tissues were detected by immunohistochemical PV6000 method. Results The expression rate of P-AKT in FTC was higher than that of non-FTC tissues. The result was of statistical significance (P<0.001). There were correlations between the MVD of FTC tissue and the expression of P-AKT and VEGF (P<0.05). The MVD of P-AKT positive FTC tissue was higher than that of negative tissues (P<0.05). The MVD of VEGF positive FTC tissue was also higher than that of negative tissues(P<0.05). There were correlations between the expression of P-AKT and VEGF(P<0.05). Conclusion The hyperexpression of P-AKT played an important role in the secondary deposits and development of human follicular thyroid carcinoma. AKT/VEGF pathway may exist in FTC, and AKT is the key factor in the pathway which regulated the expression of VEGF.

Objective To investigate and analyze nasal carriage of bacteria in medical staff and antibiotic susceptibility. Methods All study participants underwent swabbing of the anterior 1.5 cm of the nasal vestibule of both nares with a sterile swab,and did drug sensitivity test Apr.-Oct.,2007. Results In 41.08% of all samples (125/299),136 pathogenetic bacteria were isolated. Klebsiella pneumoniae,Staphylococcus aureus and Enterobacter aerogenes were the prominent bacteria,of which showed the resistance for more than three kinds of antibiotics were 35,accounting for 25.73% of all isolates,10 strains of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus (MRS) were detected. Conclusion The nasal carriage of bacteria and antibiotics resistance in medical staff in Tianjin should be paid attention to,for it may an important factor in the control of infection in hospitals.

Objective To investigate the epidemiologic characteristics of injuries of children aged 0 ~14 yrs. Methods Described analysis was used to analyze the epidemiologic characteristics about the age, gender, injury type and cause in children 0~14 years old who visited in emergency department of hospitals form 2006 to 2007. Results During the study period, 16 124 injured children were collected. the rank of injuries type were contused/abrased wound (44.41%), open injury (36.10%), sprain (12.81%), bone fracture (3.25%) and burn/scald injury (1.49%); the cause of injuries were fall down (55.24%), animal injury (21.49%) , blunt injury (8.47%) and traffic injury (6.96%); The common place of injury occurred were at home (53.66%), public and resident place (18.01%), road/street (11.73%) and school (10.70%). The gender ratio was 1.94, the median age was 6 years, the male injury was decrease with the age increase, but so wasn't the female. Conclusion Injury gradually becomes the key health problem and influences the children health. The effective measures should be taken in term of the epidemiology characteristics of the injuries among children at 0-14 to prevent and control injury occurring. The health education of preventing injury occurring and behavior drawback should be conducted as early as possible to raise awareness of injury issues among children in the kindergartens and promote them growing healthily.

The thiamine and nicotinic acid content of the husked rice (whole rice) samples from 9 representative varieties of paddy collected from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces were analyzed, and the effect of degree of milling on the content of these two vitamins were studied. The paddy samples were husked with wooden mill and the husked rice samples were milled with laboratory rice mill to 5 grades, namely, "96", "94", "92", "90" and "88" percent extraction (by 96% extraction we mean 96 grams of finished rice were derived from 100 grams of husked rice), and the thiamine and nicotinic acid content of each sample were determined. It is found that the thiamine and nicotinic acid content of the rice of different variety may vary considerably, and both were decreased with the increase of degree of milling. Generally, above the "94" grade, the loss of thiamine is higher than that of nicotinic acid, while down from the "92" grade, less thiamine and more nicotinic acid were lost. The rate of decrease in nicotinic acid content is relatively irregular as compared with that of thiamine, and different varieties are affected differently by the milling process.

Objective To observe the effect of Fuming Tablet on the content of ATP and MDA, and the activity of SOD in retinal tissue of rabbit retinal detachment (RD) and reattachment model. Methods 48 rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups, with 12 in each. 12 rabbits were taken as healthy control and fed with normal saline, the others in model group, western medicine group and Fuming Tablet group were prepared as RD model by injecting Sodium Halyuronate (Helen) into subretinal spaces, and the detached retinas were reattached automatically in 10 ～ 14 days. They were administered with normal saline, mixed preparation of western medicines and Fuming Tablet suspension respectively, then the content of ATP, MDA and SOD activity were determined in postoperative 1 week (the retina remained detached) and 3 weeks (the detached retina reattached). Results Effect of fuming tablet of increasing the content of ATP and the activity of SOD, reducing the content of MDA was similar with that of the mixed preparation of ATP, VitB1 and Venoruton. Conclusion Fuming Tablet can significantly improve the oxidation resistance and depress the lipid peroxidation of retinal tissue, thus alleviate and inhibit the development of retinal pathological changes to some extent.

Objective To investigate the analysis of low calcium intravenous calcium supplementation agent and active vitamin D3 on total thyroidectomy on quality of life in patients with nodular goiter. Methods 40 cases of nodular goiter with total thyroidectomy were performed in our hospital from March 2014 to September 2016. It was randomly divided into control group and experimental group, 20 cases in each group. The patients in the control group were nodular thyroidectomy and the experimental group underwent total thyroidectomy. The quality of life of two groups of patients was evaluated by using the European five-dimensional health-related living quality scale (eq-5d). Results Two groups of patients, relevant questionnaire survey of the patient's ability to act, self-care ability, daily activity ability, pain or discomfort, anxiety, or depression, and the comparison of VAS score, according to the results of difference was not statistically significant. In comparison with ordinary people, the questionnaire survey results showed that the proportion of patients with moderate or above differences was higher and the difference was significant (P< 0.01). There was no statistical significance compared to the average person. Conclusion All patients with nodular goiter are treated with total thyroidism, and the effect is good, and the quality of life of patients is relatively small.
