1.Big osteoma of ethmoid sinus.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2014;28(7):499-500
Sinus osteoma is a common nasal and sinus disease, while the clinical cases of osteoma with a diameter greater than 30 millimeter are rarely seen. This paper reports a case of a 39-years-old male patient discovered with one-year long swelling pain in the right eye. The patients' right eye was mildly prominent and he suffered from hypopsia and diplopia. After CT scanned, he have ethmoid osteoma been discovered, besides, the right media rectus compression and orbital apex compression and consequent pathologically were diagnosed. The solid tumor ranged widely from the anterior skull base to the superior and interior orbital walls,and thus deprived the patient's complete surgical resection. As an attempt to prevent complications, most parts of the tumors were sur gically removed.

Objective Vessel injury provokes the release of angiotensin II that influences the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). T lymphocytes produced, interleukin 10 is of immunoregulatory function. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of recombinant human interleukin 10 (rhIL 10) on the proliferation of isolated rat vascular smooth muscle cell and the activity of p44/p42 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) promoted by angiotensin II. Methods Rat aortic VSMCs were cultured and treated with rhIL 10 or angiotensin II, and then co treated with rhIL 10 and angiotensin II. The proliferation was quantified by colormetric assay. The p44/p42 MAPK activity was evaluated by the immunobloting technique using anti p44/p42 phospho MAPK antibody. Results Compared with control group, angiotensin II stimulated significantly VSMCs proliferation(1 311?0 201 vs 0 781?0 236, P 0 05), but significantly inhibited VSMCs proliferation induced by angiotensin II at a dose of 1,10,100 ng/ml (0 984?0 172 , 0 932?0 134 , 0 784?0 097 vs 1 311?0 201, P

Light cannot be propagated within the range of photonic crystal band gaps. Based on this unique property, we proposed a method to improve anti-radiation capability through one-dimensional photonic crystal coating. Using transmission matrix method, we determined the appropriate dielectric materials, thickness and periodic numbers of photonic crystals through Matlab programming simulation. Then, compound one-dimensional photonic crystal coating was designed which was of high anti-radiation rate within the range of X-ray. As is shown through simulation experiments, the reflection rate against X-ray was higher than 90 percent, and the desired anti-radiation effect was achieved. Thus, this method is able to help solve the technical problems facing the inorganic lead glass such as thickness, weightiness, costliness, high lead equivalent, low transparency and high cost. This method has won China's national invention patent approval, and the patent number is 201220228549.2.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the application of the Dexmedetomidine utend drug induced sleep endoscopy.
METHOD:
Forty-four OSAHS patients diagnosed by PSG randomly were divided into group A (Dexmedetomidine group) and group B (Propofol group), each group of 22 cases. Group A: pump the Dexmedetomidine (1 microg/kg) over 15 minutes. Once the patient reached a satisfactory level of sedation, the electronic nasopharyngoscope was introduced into the nasal cavity group B: the propofol (2 mg/kg) was intravenous injected, use the same exmination after the object patients falling asleep. If not, double the injection dose of the two group. Observe and record the patient vital signs, EEG and sleep time, and handle the complications.
RESULT:
The study was successfully completed both in group A and B. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) in group B was lower than group A during the examination significantly (P < 0.05). The time falling to sleep in two groups were (13.4 +/- 2.5) min and (6.6 +/- 1.2) min, and the time in group A was much longer than that in group B. The lowest oxygen saturation during the examination in two groups were 0.835 +/- 0.096 and 0.691 +/- 0.095, and the difference was statistically significant. There was no incidence of adverse reactions in two groups.
CONCLUSION
Compared with propofol, Dexmedetomidine is a safer sleep-inducing drug, and it can be used for clinical sleep endoscopy.
