Objective To study the clinical significance of end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PetCO2 ) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and seek the fixed value according which to decide if we should and when to give up.Methods This was a prospective,observational study.A total of 124 patients with cardiac arrest in or out-of-hospital from may 2003 to March 2009 in emergency department of our hospital were selected.All of them had definite etiological factors.Changes of PetCO2 in 124 cardiac arrest patients during CPR were tracked.Results The gender,age,rescue time in seventy-one patients with the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after endotracheal intubation have a significant difference with that in fifty-three patients without ROSC (P ＜0.01 ).The PetCO2 of the survival were higher than that of patients without ROSC or with ROSC,but finally died (P ＜0.01 ).A fixed point 14.4 mmHg of PetCO2 after 20 minutes' CPR can be used as a reference value to guide CPR or predict prognosis.Conclusions Monitoring PetCO2 during CPR has a predictive value on the success of resuscitation.

Objective To explore the related factors about acute stress responses of the military freshmen,then built a path model among self-efficacy,social support,coping style,state-trait anxiety and acute stress responses.Methods 584 students were tested by General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES),Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS),Coping Styles Questionnaire,State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Acute Stress Response Scale ( ASP S).Results ①The military freshmen in each factor of acute stress response got a lower score,especially the mean score of the changes of cognition was higher (0.21 ±0.21 ),compared with the other factors,and the changes of pathology (0.053 ±0.114) was lower.②There were significant correlations between self-efficacy,social support,positive coping,negative coping,state anxiety,trait anxiety and acute stress responses (P ＜ 0.01 ).③ Negative coping( r=0.130),trait anxiety(r=0.005) and state anxiety(r=0.002) influenced ASR directly,meanwhile,self-efficacy( r =-1.292) influenced ASR through the state anxiety indirectly,self-efficacy ( r=-7.465 ) and social support ( r =-0.294) influenced ASR indirectly through trait anxiety.Conclusion Acute stress responses of the military freshmen were directly influenced by negative coping and state-trait anxiety,and negative coping style was the main reason.

BACKGROUND:With the consumption of acidic beverages, dental erosion becomes more serious. Erosion is related to direct loss of dental hard tissue, and causes dental over-abrasion, thus great threatening the dental health.
OBJECTIVE:To review the research work on the erosion of human teeth, erosion prevention, and teeth remineralization.
METHODS:A computer-based online retrieval of CNKI, Elsevier and Wiley databases between 1990 and 2013 was performed for articles abut human teeth erosion, erosion prevention and teeth remineralization. After repeated or old literatures were excluded, 58 literatures were included in the analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Current studies on dental erosion included three aspects, firstly, clinical observation of the symptoms and cause of dental erosion;secondly, the erosiveness of common acidic agents;and thirdly, the prevention of dental erosion. Many researchers focused on the prevention of dental erosion. It was suggested that dental erosion could be prevented through adjusting and control ing oral environment, enhancing the erosiveness of acidic beverages, and increasing the anti-erosion capacity of teeth. It should be noted that tooth erosion and friction/wear often occur simultaneously in the mouth. Therefore, future research should pay attention to the interaction mechanism of erosion, friction and wear of human teeth.

0.05).The off-pump group had a shorter respiratory support time [(4.8?1.9)h vs(8.9?2.1)h,t=17.453,P=0.000],less drainage volume[(390?152)ml vs(660?111)ml,t=17.173,P=0.000],and required less blood transfusion [(270?77)ml vs(510?144)ml,t=17.861,P=0.000] than the on-pump group.In the off-pump group,3(2.0%)of the 150 patients developed renal function injury that is significantly more than that in the on-pump group [11/140(7.9%),?2=5.407,P=0.020].Conclusions Off-pump CABG is as effective as the on-pump surgery;moreover,it is a better choice for patients with high-risk coronary disease since this technique is superior in reducing respiratory support time,volumes of chest drainage and blood transfusion,and renal function injury.

AIM: To observe the efficacy of intravitreal injection with ranibizumab combined with laser photocoagulation for macular edema ( ME ) secondary to macular branch retinal vein occlusion( MBRVO) .
METHODS:A retrospective analysis included 33 patients (33 eyes) with ME secondary to MBRVO were taken. All patients received intravitreal injection of 0. 5mg ranibizumab ( 0. 05ml ) at first visit. The continue PRN treatment and laser photocoagulation were based on the visual acuity changes and optical coherence tomography findings. The changes of best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA) , central macular thickness( CMT) , and amplitude density and latency of P1 wave in mfERG were observed before treatment and 6mo after treatment.
RESULTS: Before the treatment, logMAR was 0. 68±0.35, 6mo after treatment was 0. 34±0. 23, BCVA was improved obviously ( P < 0. 01 ), BCVA in 21 patients ( 63.64%) were improved in two rows among all the patients. CMT before treatment was(487. 30±63. 58) μm, after treatment was(238. 84±52. 66) μm(P<0. 01). The amplitude densities of P1 wave in ring 1, ring 2 and ring 3 after treatment were significantly increased(all P<0. 01), and the latencies were decrease ( all P < 0. 05 ). The conjunctival hemorrhage was observed in 2 eyes after treatment.
CONCLUSION: Intravitreal injection with ranibizumab combined with laser photocoagulation for ME secondary to MBRVO can reduce the CMT and improve visual function.

Objective To screen melanocortin 4 receptor (Mc4R) gene mutation by direct DNA sequencing in order to explore the mutation situation of Mc4R gene in simple obese children in Nanjing.Methods One hundred and five simple obese children(obesity group) and 127 healthy children(healthy control group) were examined for mutations of Mc4R gene.Body mass index(BMI)cutoff points for overweight and obesity adopted Chinese children and adolescents,recommended by China Working Group of Obesity,and all children had no other hereditary and metabolic abnormality.Touch-down PCR was performed to amplify the full length Mc4R gene,then direct DNA sequencing was used to analyze the Mc4R gene.The differences of biochemical index levels between obesity group and healthy control group were analyzed ,including alanine transaminase,aspartate transaminas,total protein,albumin,globulin,albumin/globulin,triglyceride,cholesterol,high density lipoprotein,cortisol,insulin and C peptide.Results There were significant differences of biochemical index levels between obesity group and healthy control group,including triglyceride,insulin level after dining 2 h,C peptide and BMI(Pa
