OBJECTIVETo analyze the factors in the non-operative treatment of cervical spinal cord injury without fracture or dislocation.

METHODSThe clinical data of 122 patients with cervical spinal cord injury without fracture or dislocation from January 2009 to December 2012 treated by non-operative treatment were retrospectively reviewed. There were 84 males and 38 females, aged from 18 to 83 years with an average of (52.37 +/- 13.27) years. The clinical features, such as age, gender, cause of injury, time from injury to treatment, ASIA grade of spine cord injury, MRI type of spine cord injury, range of spine cord injury, effective cervical spinal canal ratio, Pfirrmann grade of intervertebral disc herniation, segment of intervertebral disc herniation, intervertebral disc ligament complex injury, treatment of high-dose methyiprednisolone, were observed. Single factor and multiple factor Logistic regression analysis were used in the clinical data in order to analyze the influencing factors of above items to prognosis.

RESULTSFor univariate analysis, the factors such as MRI type of spine cord injury, extent of spine cord injury, effective cervical spinal canal ratio, Pfirrmann grade of intervertebral disc herniation, segment of intervertebral disc herniation, ASIA grade of spine cord injury, associated with prognosis (P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the main prognostic factors including MRI type of spine cord injury, range of spine cord injury, effective cervical spinal canal ratio, Pfirrmann grade of intervertebral disc herniation, ASIA grade of spine cord injury according to its effective intension (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe main prognostic factors on non-operative treatment of cervical spinal cord injury without fracture or dislocation were MRI type and extent of spine cord injury, meanwhile, correlate with effective cervical spinal canal ratio, Pfirrmann grade of intervertebral disc herniation, ASIA grade of spine cord injury. It is deliberative to choose no-operative treatment, for it only refers to the patients with the mild localized edema type or no signal change of spinal cord in MRII. Operative treatment shoud be recommended for other patients.

Objective To compare analgesic efficacy of intravenous postoperative and preemptive analgesia with flurbiprofen axetil combined with small dose of morphine and with morphine alone. Methods One hundred and twenty patients were randomly divided into four groups: group A,morphine 30 mg +0.9% NaCl for postoperative analgesia,n=30;group B,morphine 20 mg +0.9% NaCl for postoperative analgesia,n=30;group C,flurbiprofen axetil 100 mg + morphine 20 mg +0.9% NaCl for postoperative analgesia,n=30;group D,flurbiprofen axetil 100 mg before operation + morphine 20 mg +0.9% NaCl for postoperative analgesia,n=30.The drugs in each group were diluted to 100 mL and infused by a pump at a rate of 2 mL/h with a patient-controlled analgesia(PCA)bolus of 2 mL after a loading dose of 5 mL.The visual analogue scale(VAS),demanding times for PCA and incidence of side effects were recorded during the period of postoperative 24 h. Results The VAS of group B at 3 h after operation was significantly higher than those of the other three groups(P

Objective To investigate the emergency treatment and correlation factors of aqueous misdirection during glaucoma and cataract surgery in glaucoma patients.Design Retrospective case series.Participants 126 cases(132 eyes)of angle-closure glaucoma patients with aqueous misdirection during surgery,100 cases(100 eyes)of angle-closure glaucoma patients without aqueous misdirection during surgery and 100 cases(100 eyes)of senile cataract patients.Methods We performed pars plana vitreous water-bag aspiration or anterior vitrectomy on glaucoma patients with aqueous misdirection during surgery.All the factors in observation group and control groups were compared and analyzed by logistic regression.Main Outcome Measures Preoperative highest intraocular pressure(HIOP),intraocular pressure after maximum dose(IOP),anterior chamber depth(ACD),lens thickness(LENS),axial length (AXL),mean keratometry(K),intraocular lens diopter within-0.5D corrected by SRK-T formula(IOLD).Results Among all the 132 angle-closure glaucoma eyes whose posterior chamber pressures were increased during surgery,we performed pars plana vitreous water-bag aspiration in 123 eyes(93.18%),and anterior vitrectomy in 9 eyes(6.8%).Postoperative complications included shallow anterior chamber in 20 eyes(7 eyes with malignant glaucoma,9 eyes with choroidal detachment,4 eyes with delayed local suprachorodal hemorrhage),and vitreous local hemorrhage in 1 eye.Means of all the observation indexes on three groups showed significant difference(all P

Objective To investigate the effects of Qiliqiangxin capsule on serum concentration of adiponectin (APN) and heart function in patients with uremia combined with heart failure. Methods Uremia patients combined with heart failure were randomly divided into treatment group and control group , both of which were given anti-failure routine therapy. The patients in treatment group were treated with Qiliqiangxin capsule for 8 weeks and those in control group with placebo. The New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart function classi-fication, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), and the levels of APN were observed before and after treatment. Results The level of APN in uremic patients combined with heart failure was significantly higher than that in normal subjects. With the increase in the class of NYHA heart function, the serum concentrations of APN increased, but the difference was not significant(P > 0.05). After 8 weeks′ treatment, the effective rate in treatment group was higher than that in control group (P < 0.05). LVEDD and LVESD in both groups decreased significantly. LVEF in both groups increased, but serum concentration of APN decreased significantly. More obvious effects were observed in treatment group (P < 0.05). Conclution Qiliqiangxin capsule could significantly reduce the level of APN and improve heart function in patients with uremia combined with heart failure.

?AlM: To analyze the result of ultrasound biomicroscopy ( UBM ) of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment ( RRD ) who need to perform pars plana vitrectomy ( PPV ) to explore the value of clinical application of UBM at preoperation.
?METHODS:Patients who underwent PPV for RRD in our hospital from January to December 2014 were selected. The preoperative results of UBM were recorded and the positive findings of UBM were analyzed, the value of preoperative application of UBM was investigated.
?RESULTS:Totally 356 cases (357 eyes) of patients with RRD were received PPV. All patients were examined by UBM, 122 eyes ( 34. 17%) were positive, 56 eyes were ciliochoroidal detachment, 28 eyes were narrow anterior chamber angle, 6 eyes were chamber angle-closure, 28 eyes were ciliary body cyst, 4 eyes were iris cyst, 11 eyes were anterior proliferative vitreoretinopathy, 1 eye was retinal cyst. There were 12 eyes existing two lesions at the same times. ln this study, patients with choroidal detachment was detected by UBM in 56 eyes, the positive rate was 15. 7%, while 25 eyes was detected by B -ultrasonography, the positive was 7. 0%. The difference was statistical significant(χ2=13. 382, P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON: The patients with RRD have underwent PPV for the condition of illness, preoperative UBM can be examined to detect the condition of anterior chamber angle, iris, ciliary and anterior choroid, which is significant for comprehensively understanding the preoperative condition of patients, estimating the difficulty of the operation, and guiding operation and the postoperative follow-up.

A new and effective method to produce transgenic animals was established. Without a surgical incision, the recombinant plasmid containing green fluorescence protein (GFP) cDNA was repeatedly injected into male mouse testis at multi-sites. After few weeks of the final injection, the injected male was mated with normal oestrus female to produce transgenic mice. The presence of the GFP cDNA in F1 transgenic individuals were detected by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot hybridization, which showed that the transgenic rate of mouse F1 offspring was 41%. The transferred gene was integrated into the host genome and could be transmitted to its offspring. When the positive F1 individuals were mated with the wild type ICR mice, the F2 individuals had a transgenic rate of 37%. The results indicate that the high efficiency of gene transfer and the limited number of manipulations make the method suitable for creating a large number of transgenic animals, especially, for producing domestic animals.

Objective To study the protective effects of ischemic postconditioning and preconditioning against ischemic reperfusion injury of skeletal muscle.Methods According to different treatment methods on ischemia-reperfusion injury,forty Wistar rats were divided into I/R group,IPost group,IPC group,IPC + IPost group,control group.Using a rat amputation-like model,Wistar rats underwent temporary amputation at the level of the femur,excluding the femoral vessels.By measuring MDA,MPO,the extent of skeletal muscle infarction,protective effects of postconditioning and preconditioning,postconditioning combined with preconditioning were observed.Results In the Ipost group,IPC group,IPC + Ipost group,MDA and MPO at one hour of reperfusion and extent of muscle infarction at 6 hour of reperfusion was lower than group IR (P ＜ 0.05).In the Ipost group,MDA,MPO and extent of muscle infarction was similar to group IPC + Ipost; In the Ipost group,MDA and MPO was lower than group IPC,extent of muscle infarction was similar to group IPC.Conclusion Ischemic postconditioning at the beginning of reperfusion can protect skeletal muscle against ischemic reperfusion injury.Preconditioning also protect skeletal muscle against ischemic reperfusion injury,but preconditioning combined with postconditioning don't offer additional benefit over preconditioning or postconditioning alone.

OBJECTIVE: To utilize the clindamycin injection safely.METHODS: 167 cases of hospitalized patients, who underwent clindamycin injection during the period between March 22, 2004 and April 27, 2004 were followed up and analyzed through the self-made questionnaires. RESULTS: 98 cases were for preventing infections; 76 cases were for treating infections; in 107(47+60) cases clindamycin injection was used in combination with other anti-infective drugs to prevent and treat infections; the average dosage was 0.6g～1.2g,bid,and the average length of time was (17?15)d;the incidence of ADR was 6.6%(11/167), and the main clinical manifestations were sickness, vomiting, diarrhea, numbness of mouth and lip, fever, and mycoinfection. CONCLUSION: Only by strict control of signs for drug use and ways of administration can the clinical safety be improved.

Objective To study whether placenta previa and type affect the body mass of newborns and increase the occurrence rate of small for gestational age (SGA).Methods The clinical data in 290 inpatients with placenta previa in our hospital from January 2013 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed;contemporaneous 290 inpatients with non-placenta previa were randomly selected as the control group.The influences of placenta previa and type on fetal gestational weeks,neonatal body mass and SGA were comparatively analyzed by using the standard t test or Chi-square tests.The Logistic regression analysis was adopted to analyze the association between placenta previa and the adverse pregnancy outcomes.Results Compared with non-placenta previa group,the age in the patients with placenta previa was elder(30.9 ±4.6 vs.29.1 ± 4.0,P＜0.01),had more gravidas (3.2 ± 1.8 vs.2.2±1.4,P＜0.01) and parities (1.4+0.7 vs.1.1±0.6,P＜0.01),lower pregnant weeks at birth (37.7±1.7 vs.39.0± 1.5,P＜0.01).The neonatal body masses in the complete placenta previa and dangerous placenta previa were (3 038.1 ± 450.0)g and (2 940.9 ± 503.0)g respectively,which were on the significantly lower side compared with the non-placenta previa group(P＜ 0.05).After correcting the risk factors of ages,gravidas,parities,GDM and gestation weeks,the risk of complete and dangerous placenta previa was slightly higher[OR 1.21,95％CI(0.29,6.02);OR 2.25,95％CI(0.88,5.77)],but the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion Complete and dangerous placenta previa has a higher risk of SGA.
