Objective To explore the facial nerve functional recovery law after resection of acoustic neuroma,and the influence of tumor size on postoperative facial nerve function. Methods According to the House-Brackman (HB) facial nerve function classification method, 89 patients with acoustic neuroma were performed microsurgical resection with the ret?rosigmoid approach and facial nerve preservation. The HB classification method was used to evaluate the facial nerve func?tion at operation, 15 d, 45 d, 3 m, 6 m, 12 m and more than 12 m after surgery. The recovery pattern of neurological function after operation was analyzed. al. According to the tumor size, patients were divided into three groups: diameter < 30 mm group (n=23), 30-40 mm group (n=31) and≥40 mm group (n=35). The facial nerve function was compared between different groups with early postoperative (within 15 days) and long-term (more than 12 months). Results The facial nerve function was the worst in 15 days after operation (excellence rate was 52.81%), but the function was returned to normal in postopera?tive 3 months (excellent rate reached 80.90%). After postoperative 12 months, almost all patients returned to normal func?tion (excellent rate was 91.01%), and the facial nerve recovery was more smoothly (excellent rate was 92.13%). Tumor size had remarkable effect on facial nerve function in the early postoperative period (χ2=23.34, P<0.05), and long-term period (χ2=14.46, P<0.05). And tumor size was positively correlated with classification of facial nerve function in the early stage (r=0.476, P<0.05) and long-term stage (r=0.379, P<0.05). The excellent rates of postoperative facial nerve function were decreased with the increased diameters of tumor size. Conclusion The facial nerve function may appear deterioration in early postoperative period (within 15 days) in patients with acoustic neuroma, which can return to the normal level in 12 months. The diameter of tumor is one of important factors influencing the early and long-term prognosis of postoperative fa?cial nerve function.

Objective To compare the effects of intracoronary verapamil on coronary flow,myocardial perfusion and clinical outcome during primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) for acute ST elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods A total of 99 consecutive STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI were randomly assigned to receive intracoronary verapamil or intracoronary heparinised saline immediately after stent deployment.Coronary flow was assessed by Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction(TIMI) flow grade(TFG) and corrected TIMI frame count(CTFC),and myocardial perfusion was assessed by TIMI myocardial perfusion grade(TMPG) and TIMI myocardial blush grades(MBG).Coronary and myocardial perfusion were assessed before and after PCI,as well as after drug administration by two doctors independently.Echocardiography were performed one week after PCI.Incidence of major adverse cardiac events in hospital and 3 months follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results Eight patients were excluded from the final analysis.Among the remaining 91 patients,47 patients were in the verapamil group and 44 patients were in control group.Baseline characteristics and angiographic characteristics were not significantly different between the two groups.CTFC,TFG,TMPG,and MBG before and after PCI were of no significant differences between the two groups.However,after drug administration,the verapamil group showed better outcome compared with the control group in CTFC(27.1?14.2 vs 39.0?23.8,P=0.011),TFG≥2(100% vs 90.9%,P=0.035),MBG≥2(91.5%% vs 75.5%,P=0.034),and TMPG≥2(89.4% vs 72.7%,P=0.042).LVEF measured by echocardiography was not significantly different between the two groups one week after PCI.The combined incidence of MACE in hospital(4.3% vs 9.1%,P=0.613) and at 3-month follow-up(23.9% vs 22.7%,P=0.894) was similar between the verapamil group and the control group.Conclusion Intracoronary administration of verapamil can improve coronary flow and myocardial perfusion in STEMI patients underwent primary PCI but show no obvious improvement in short-time clinical prognosis.

Through a series of chemical reactions, a kind of quaternary ammonium salt derivative of nanodiamond, ND-CO-NH-CH2-CH2-N ( CH3 ) 3+· I-( QAS-ND ) , was obtained , which was confirmed by FTIR, element analysis experiment and the electrochemistry measurements. Mixed myoglobin ( Mb) and QAS-ND solution was dropped on the surface of the glassy carbon ( GC ) electrode to prepare QAS-ND/Mb/GC modified electrode. In 0. 1 mol/L phosphate buffer solution (PBS) (pH 7. 0), Mb in the membrane exhibited direct electrochemical properties and showed good stability. The electrocatalytic property of the modified electrode toward H2 O2 was investigated, the results showed that the modified electrode could be used as the H2O2 biosensor to achieve fast, accurate detection of H2O2, with a detection limit of 3. 5 mmol/L (S/N=3).

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation of Mirabegron sustained-release tablets. METHODS:Using polyethylene oxide(PEO)and hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose(HPMC K4M)as the sustained release matrix,Mirabegron sustained-release tab-lets were prepared by powder direct compression technology. Using 1,3,5,7 h accumulative release rate as indexes,the amounts of PEO,HPMC K4M and OPADRY? were optimized by composite design-response surface method,and then validated. Accumula-tive release rates of sustained-release tablet and original tablet (MyrbetriqTM) were compared in different pH mediums (water,pH 1.0 simulated gastric fluid,pH 4.5 acetate buffer solution,pH 6.8 phosphate buffer solution) at different rotation rates (100,50 r/min),and similiar factor f2 was calculated to fit drug release model of sustained-release tablet. RESULTS:In the optimized firmu-lation each Mirabegron sustained-release tablet contained mirabegron 25 mg,PEO 108.02 mg,HPMC K4M 21.69 mg,OPADRY? 2.27%. Relative error of accumulative release rates at 1,3,5,7 h to predicted value were 4.78%,3.48%,0.69% and -1.41%, respectively. f2 of release curves of sustained-release tablet and original tablet were higher than 65 in different pH medium at differ-ent rotation rates. The drug release of sustained-release tablet was fitted to zero-order release equation. CONCLUSIONS:Mirabe-gron sustained-release tablet by optimized technology is similar to original tablet in drug release behavior.

An statistical analysis of aorta-septal angle(AS angle) between anterior wall of aorta and ventricular septum was taken,AS angle was measured fromthe right ventricle with long-axis, two-dimensional echocardiongram of the left ventricle in 227 consecutive cases of patients with cardiovascular diseases and 80 healthy adults since 1985. It was found that AS angle for normal adults at the end of systoie(ES) and the end of diastole(ED) being 118.50?? 7.70? and 110.60??8.23?; the difference between ES and ED was 7.89??4.51?. In patients with overburdening of left ventricular volume and resistance of coronary artery disease, car-diomycpathy and hypertension , AS angles were amaller,and in patients with overburdening of right ventricular pressure of rheumatic mitral stenosis, AS angles were larger than healthy adults. The difference between ES and ED was smaller than normal for all patients. It was also found that in patients with heartdisease AS angle tends to be smaller or larger before the appearance of abnormality of the left ventricular cavity. Our data suggested that AS angle variance might afford some clinical significance of diagnosis

Objective To investigate the prevalence of endemic fluorosis in Guide county of Qinghai province, in order to provide appropriate measures to monitor and control the disease. Methods Damo, Wenquan, Baoning villages(water source has been changed) and Taiping village(water source has not been changed) in Guide county were involved in the study in 2008. One tap water sample was collected in dry and rainy seasons, respectively. Water fluoride was tested in accordance with the "Standard Test Methods for Drinking Water" (GB/T 5750.5-2006); of all the children aged 8 to 12, dental fluorosis was diagnosed using Dean criteria; 6 copies of urine samples were collected in each age group, urinary fluoride was measured using fluoride ion-selective electrode (WS/T 89-1996). According to the "Clinical Diagnostic Criteria of Endemic Skeletal Fluorosis "(WS 192-2008), clinical skeletal fluorosis was determined in adults over the age of 16 by X-ray examination for 10 people in each selected village. Results The mean water fluoride was 0.58,0.38,2.28,0.37 mg/L in Damo, Wenquan, Taiping, and Baoning villages, respectively, and that of Taiping village exceeded the national standard(1.0 mg/L). One hundred and ninety-three children aged 8-12 were checked, the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 49.74% (96/193); urine samples of 116 children were tested, median urinary fluoride was 1.49 mg/L A total of 1503 adults over the age of 16 were examined, the clinical detection of skeletal fluorosis was 51.63%(776/1503); a total of 82 people were X-rayed, X-ray detection of skeletal fluorosis was 20.73%(17/82). The characteristic of X-rays were degeneration and ossification of interosseous membrane. Conclusions Prevalence of dental fluorosis of children and adult clinical skeletal fluorosis are higher. The endemic fluorosis is still comparatively serious. Prevention efforts need to be further strengthened.

Abstract: Objective　To understand the density changes and seasonal fluctuation of larvae and adults of Aedes albopictus in Hainan Province from 2017 to 2021, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of dengue fever and other vector-borne diseases in Hainan Province. Methods　The Breteau index method was used to monitor the larvae of Aedes mosquitoes, and the breeding sites of all small indoor and outdoor water containers and their larvae was checked and recorded. The adult mosquitoes were monitored by double lamination and light trap. Results　A total of 1 962 adult female Aedes albopictus mosquitoes were captured in Hainan Province from 2017 to 2021, accounting for 2.17% of the total captured mosquitoes. There were significant differences in mosquito species composition in different habitats in different years (χ2=312.258, P<0.01). In 2017, the density of mosquitoes in livestock sheds was the highest (9.71 per lamp·night), but the composition ratio of Aedes albopictus was the lowest (1.29%). In 2020, the mosquito density in hospitals was the lowest (2.22 mosquitoes per lamp·night), and in 2019, the proportion of Aedes albopictus in residential areas and hospitals was the highest (3.27% on average).The mosquito density in different habitats was the lowest in 2020. The proportion of Aedes albopictus in residential areas and livestock sheds showed an increasing trend from 2017 to 2021, while the proportion of other habitats showed significant fluctuations. The proportion of Aedes albopictus in hospitals showed an obvious decreasing trend in 2020. From 2017 to 2021, the average mosquito density was 5.97, 4.26, 3.82, 3.39 and 3.68 mosquitoes per lamp·night, respectively, showing a decreasing trend year by year except 2021. Except for 2019, the lure index also showed a decreasing trend, with an average value of 1.5/(hour·net), showing a decreasing trend year by year. From 2017 to 2021, the annual average density of Aedes albopictus in Hainan Province was 0.09 mosquitoes per lamp·night, showing obvious seasonal fluctuation. The Breteau index showed a slow decline from 2017 to 2021, and its annual peak was between June and August, which was 1-2 months later than the peak of adult mosquito density. Conclusions　The population density of Aedes albopictus in Hainan shows obvious seasonal characteristics. Mosquito control activities should be carried out according to the seasonal characteristics of mosquitoes to reduce the risk of dengue fever and other infectious diseases.

Objective To evaluate the effect of transurethral feedback microwave thermotherapy with the ProstaLund CoreTherm Device(PLFT) in high risk patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Methods Sixty-six high risk patients diagnosed with BPH, including aged ≥80 in 32 pa-tients, hypertension in 31 patients, diabetes in 5 patients, heart failure in 8 patients, chronic obstruc-tive pulmonary disease in 8 patients, cerebral infarction in 11 patients, fracture, amputation or joint stiffness unsuitable for lithotomy position in 3 patients, abnormal blood coagulation in 4 patients, pan-creatitis in 2 patients, cardiac arrhythmia in 6 patients and malignant tumor in 3 patients, were treated with PLFT using individual power at urethral local anesthesia, resulting in coagulation necrosis in 15%-30% of prostate tissue around urethra. Meanwhile, real-time monitoring the temperature of prostate and the tissue around it was used. All patients were evaluated by comparing volume of pros-tate, maximal urinary flow (Q_max), international prostate symptom score (IPSS) and quality of life questionnaire (QOL) in pre-treatment and three months after respectively. Results All of patients well tolerated PLFT. There was bleeding lightly, infection lightly and temporary incontinence. There was no severe surgical complication. After three months, the volume of prostate reduced from 62. 2 ml to 44.5 ml; IPSS decreased from 23. 4 to 11.7; QOL decreased from 4.5 to 2.4; Q_max rised from 4, 2 ml/s to 11.2 ml/s. All differences reached significance. Conclusion PLFT is one of effective and safe treatments for patients with BPH especial BPH complicating with severe conditions.

Objective To investigate the approach and safety of minimally invasive surgical procedures treating symptomatic caliceal diverticular calculi. Methods Clinical data of 21 cases with symptomatic caliceal diverticular calculi were retrospectively reviewed. Twelve females and 9 males aged 22 to 57 years old. The average diameter of caliceal diverticulum was 3.7 cm (2.5-7.0 cm) and average diameter of calculi was 2.3 cm (0.8-3.5 cm). The patients underwent flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy, PCNL or mPCNL, laparoscopic techniques and laparoscopy-assisted transperitoneal PCNL, respectively. Four cases underwent flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy. PCNL (2 cases) or mPCNL(5 cases)were performed in 7 cases. Nine cases underwent laparoscopic techniques. Laparoscopyassisted transperitoneal PCNL was performed in 1 case. Results The operations were performed successfully in 21 cases. No case need to transfer to open surgery during the operation and no major complications like perforation or organic injury were noted. One case with iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula of the kidney after 1 week postoperative was cured by delayed hemorrhage 2 days later, while clinical symptoms of 2 cases with residue calculi relieved. 19 cases without residue calculi were followed up for 6 to 12 month without recurrence. Conclusions After handling indication of treatment efficiently and creating advisable therapeutic decision-making, minimally invasive surgical procedures treating symptomatic caliceal diverticular calculi appears to be effective and safe.
