Objective To evaluate the efficacy of double flap reconstruction after craniectomy through transpetrosal-presigmoid approach in the treatment of petroclival tumor.Methods A total of patients with petroclival tumor were enrolled in this study.Craniectomy was performed on them through the transpetrosal-presigmoid approach,and then double flap reconstruction was carried out.After the temporo-occipotal free osseous flap(retrosigmoid flap)was obtained,the superficial flap of the mastoid process(presigmoid flap)was freed by grinding and drilling.During the operation,partial petrosectomy and mastoidectomy were avoided to protect the semicircular canals and cochlea.Results Among the 14 cases,radical resection of the tumor was performed on 8 patients,subtotal resection on 3,and partial resection on 3.Two patients developed CSF leak through the ear.No subcutaneous hydrops or intracranial infection was found in the patients.The patients were followed up at 3 and 6 months after the operation,during which no complications were detected.Conclusions The rates of CSF leak,subcutaneous hydrops,and intracranial infection are low after applying double flap reconstruction to craniectomy through the transpetrosal-presigmoid approach.The procedure are mini-invasive and safety.

Results After the treatment of acupuncture combined with rehabilitation for 4~6 months, the clinical symptoms of these 2 cases improved, and the scores of Gross Motor Function Measure increased. Conclusion Acupuncture combined with rehabilitation is effective on Joubert syndrome.

Objective:To determinate the resistant starch in different kinds of food so as to provide the data for guiding the diet for health. Method:The contents of resistant starch in 6 kinds of food samples were determined by a method that mimicked gastrointestinal conditions. Results:The contents of resistant starch in raw food were higher than cooked food, except beans. The content of resistant starch of raw potato and deepfrying potato was respectively the highest, 46.06?2.65 g/100g total starch and 29.11?1.52 g/100g total starch. Conclusion:The repeatability of the analysis method was good, and the contents of resistant starch in various kinds of food were different.

Objective:To analyze the long-term curative effect of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), and to study the factors related to the defeat of endoscopic sinus surgery.Method:201 cases（353 sides）of chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps were treated with ESS，and were treated by taking the nasal cavity as a whole unit.Result:Following up survey from 12 months to 24 months postoperatively，it was found that 108 cases were cured （53.7%），82 cases achieved symptomatic relief（40.8%），11 cases remained failure （5.5%）.Conclusion:It is very important to improve the ESS technique in order to reduce the recurrence of nasal polyps and sinusitis and to improve the curative effect of ESS，in addition，the treatment after operation is also indispensable to successful surgery.

Objective To study the role of the chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine for treatment for TB. Methods C57BL/6N mice challenged with H37Rv were immunized with the chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine, hsp70 DNA vaccine and BCG in order to compare the therapeutic role of these vaccines. Results The levels of interferon ? (IFN-?) in the serum of mice in hsp70/CD80 group (1336.98?129.64) pg/ml was significantly higher than in group BCG (121.54?56.39) pg/ml, pcDNA3 (192.00?64.36) pg/ml and pcDNA3 hsp70 (542.33?99.77) pg/ml. The growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in live and spleen were inhibited significantly in hsp70/CD80 vaccinated mice. Conclusions The chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine was more efficient than BCG and hsp70 DNA vaccine alone in treating TB.

Objective To study the relationships of serum neuroglobin and neuron-specific enolase level with periventricular hemorrhage-intraventricular hemorrhage ( PVH-IVH) and periventricular leucumalacia ( PVL) in preterm infants. Methods There were 241 cases of preterm infants whose gestational age was less than 34 weeks and were admitted in NICU of Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center, Guangzhou Huadu District Matermal and Child Health Hospital and Dongguan Taiping Hospital from Jan. 2010 to May. 2013, enrolled in the study. The serum level of neuroglobin and neuron-specific enolase were detected within 12 hours and on the 3 d, 7 d, 14 d after birth. Cranial ultrasound was preformed 2~3 d, 1week, 2weeks, 3weeks, and 4 weeks after birth. They also received Cranial MRI examination before discharge or when the correct gestational age reached 40 weeks. All 241 cases were divided into 3 groups ( no brain damage group, PVH-IVH group and PVL group) according to the result of cranial US and MRI. The differences of the serum levels of neuroglobin and neuron-specific enolase among each groups were compared. Results The results of cranial ultrasound and /or MRI showed: 162 cases had no brain damage ( in no brain damage group) , 50 cases had PVH-IVH ( in PVH-IVH group) , and 20 cases had PVL, 9 cases had PVL and PVH-IVH ( both in PVL group) . Within 12 h and 3 d after birth, the serum levels of neuroglobin in PVL group and PVH-IVH group was significantly higher than those in no brain damage group (P<0. 05), and the serum levels of neuroglobin in PVL group were signigicantly higher than those in PVH-IVH group ( P <0. 05 ) . On 7 d and 14 d after birth, the serum levels of neuroglobin were no significant difference between PVH-IVH group and no brain damage group ( P>0. 05 ) , and there were still significantly higher than those in no brain damage group and PVH-IVH group (all P<0. 05). The serum levels of neuron-specific enolase within 12 h and 3 d after birth in PVH-IVH group and PVL group were significantly higher than those in no brain damage group ( P<0. 05 ) , and there were no significant difference between PVL group and PVH-IVH group (P>0. 05). On 7 d and 14 d after birth, the serum levels of neuron-specific enolase in PVL group were no significant difference compared with PVH-IVH group and no brain damage group (all P>0. 05). Conclusion The increased serum levels of neuroglobin and neuron-specific enolase in preterm infants within 12 h and 3 d after birth would have certain clinical significance for judging whether early brain damage and PVL would happen.

Neural and brain imaging has become one of the most challenging subjects and attracted more attentions. Neural and brain imaging can quantify morphological pattern, structure and function of brain and nerve system, which offers us not only a deeper understanding of brain and nerve system, but also improved effectiveness of clinical diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a new imaging technique and has been widely used in areas of biology and medicine. Study on OCT technique applying to neural and brain imaging has drawn special attention and rapid developments have been achieved. The technique provides new ideas and methods to solve problems in neural and brain imaging and its potential needs to be discovered. This article re-views the latest techniques and development in OCT for neural and brain imaging. Advantages and disadvantages of the technique and foreground of the development are discussed.
