Objective To analyze the therapy and prognosis of palindromic ovarian carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 40 cases of palindromic ovarian carcinoma were reviewed retrospectively. Results After the first surgery, the mean recurrent time of the patients with remained tumors smaller than 2 0 cm was (37 26?11 79) months, and that of the patients with remained tumors larger than 2 0 cm was (7 88?1 49) months. There was a significnat difference in the mean recurrent time between the two groups of the patients with different size of remained tumors(P0 05). Conclusion The recurrence of ovarian cancer was related to the size of remained tumor. Secondary operation plus chemotherapy could improve the short-term survival rate of the patients with palindromic ovarian carcinoma.

There have been many methods to prepare fluoroquinolones-loaded sustained-release chitosan microspheres, including precipitation, emulsion crosslinking, spray-drying, and ionic gelation. Each of them has its own merits and disadvantages, but the mechanisms underlying drug delivery are basically similar. The prepared drug microspheres can enhance the capacity of anti-fluoroquinolones-resistant bacteria and are primarily used in the anti-inflammation and anti-infection. This paper introduces the preparation methods and sustained drug delivery mechanisms of fluoroquinolones-loaded sustained-release chitosan microspheres and investigates drug delivery characteristics and applications by analyzing, sorting, and summarizing related manuscripts published recently. Fluoroquinolones-loaded sustained-release chitosan microspheres show satisfactory sustained-release and anti-bacterial properties. Therefore, it is of important scientific research and clinical application significance to develop fluoroquinolones-loaded sustained-release nanometer-sized chitosan microspheres.

Chitosan microsphere containing fluoroquinolones is a kind of novel sustained-released antibacterial agent that possesses the antibacterial and bacteriostatic property of chitosan as well as bactericidal properties of fluoroquinolones. Loading fluoroquinolones in the chitosan microsphere can greatly enhance its antibacterial, bactericidal, anti-inflammation and anti-infection characteristics. This paper reviewes the recent study on different preparation methods of chitosan mierosphere containing fluoroqninolones and discusses its applications.

Objective To explore the correlations of expressions of gastric mucosa water channel aquaporin AQP3 and AQP4 and different gastritis types. Methods The gastric mucosa was mounted under gastroscope. The types of gastric mucosa pathology and activity were tested by the common pathohistology. The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 were determined by immunohistology. Results The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 of chronic superficial gastritis were significantly higher than those in the non-gastritis group and chronic atrophic gastritis group (P < 0.01), especially in the activity period of chronic superficial gastritis. The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 of chronic atrophic gastritis group were reduced when compared to those in the non-gastritis group, in spite of no statistical differences between them. While compared to the non-gastritis group , the expression of AQP3 of chronic atrophic gastritis group during the active stage was remarkably decreased (P < 0.05). Conclusion The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 of gastric mucosa in chronic gastritis in various pathological types are different. AQP3 and AQP4 may be the targeted point , which could be used for the differential diagnosis and treatment of chronic gastritis of different pathological types.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the scoring formula and evaluate the lists equivalence of Mandarin Quick Speech-in-Noise (M-Quick SIN) test materials in mainland China, and for standardizing our research. METHOD: Double 39 subjects with normal hearing were participated in part one and part two of our experiments, respectively. 20, 18, 15, 13, 10, 8, 5, 3, 0, -2, -5, -7, -10 dB SNR were presented in part one; and 20, 15, 10, 5, 0, -5 dB SNR were presented in part two. The results were analyzed by SPSS 13.0. RESULT: SNR-50 was -2.24 dB SNR and "SNR loss = 24.5--correct words" was defined as the scoring formula. All the 13 lists had the e quivalent difficulty. CONCLUSION Defined "SNR loss = 24.5--correct words" as the scoring formula of M-Quick SIN, and the 13 lists had better difficulty equivalence, which could be used in our further clinical research.

Objective To aim at the problem of bedsore which is always occurred on the crowd of the aging population,empty-nest family and the disabled patients etc,a two-way side turn over mechanism for intelligent sanitation nursing instrument is designed.Methods The turn over angle of the mechanism was analyzed and calculated after establishing the mechanism's three-dimensional model.The forces situation of the state of lying,side lean against and left/right side turn over were carried out through finite element analysis by using of Pro/Mechanica.Results The results showed that the sum of two-way side turn over mechanism's two-way side turn over angle was 30 degrees.The materials met the mechanism's force requirement.Conclusions The results can provide a theoretical basis for the designer to determine the structure parameters and sizes of mechanism.

Objective To investigate the correlations between the time of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) and prognosis in patients with type B acute aortic dissection (AADB). Methods The clinical data of 156 AADB patients with TEVAR was retrospectively analyzed and divided into 3 groups according to the time from onset of symptom to TEVAR:less than seven days was deifned as group 1 (G1, n=87), seven days to fourteen days group 2 (G2, n=48);more than fourteen days was group 3 (G3, n=21). The status of aortic reconstruction at three months TEVAR, in-hospital mortalities, mean hospital expense and length of stay were compared among three groups. Results Before TEVAR, there was no signiifcant differences in the ratio of smallest true lumen diameter and largest false lumen diameter amony the three groups (0.47±0.33, 0.42±0.18, 0.47±0.27, respectively, P>0.05). At three months after TEVAR, the ratio of largest true lumen diameter and largest false lumen diameter among the three groups was signiifcantly greater in group 1 (1.76±0.51) than group 2(1.42±0.30) and group 3(1.34±0.34, P < 0.05), when there was no signiifcant difference between the later two groups. Complete aortic reconstruction (8 from group 1 and 4 from group 2) was achieved in 12 patients at 3 months after TAVAR. Eight patients died during hospitalization, 5 from visceral ischemic, 2 from proximal aortic dissection, one patient from sudden death. Compared with G3, the hospital expense of group 1 and group 2 was cut down about ￥20000. Length of stay was signiifcant greater in group 3 than in group 1 and group 2 (P<0.05). Conclusions Early TEVAR for AADB was safe and beneifcial for aortic reconstruct and reducing the hospital expense and length of stay.
