Laparoscopic and robotic techniques change the view of groin anatomy from inside to outside.The amplification view of laparoscopy extends surgeons' visual field,with clear and precise anatomy,less bleeding and certain outcome.Robotic flexible joints increase angle of suture to abdominal wall.In this background,hernia surgeons pay close attention to closure of abdominal wall defect,choice and fix of mesh as well as status of robotic technique in hernia filed.

Many specific therapeutic antibody drugs have been developed for different indications. In drug development, it has been found that the antibody isotype framework can not only affect the physical and chemical properties of therapeutic antibodies, but also influence the activity and therapeutic effect. As a result, IgG isotype selection should be considered carefully in antibody drug development strategies. Because of the unique biological characteristics, IgG4 isotype has been used in some therapeutic antibodies for which effector functions are not desired. In order to provide new ideas for the development of antibody drugs, the research and application progress of IgG4 isotype in therapeutic antibody drug development has been reviewed.

Objective To investigate the short-term treatment effectiveness of the auditory integrative training(AIT) on intelligence, language and gross motor function in children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP).Methods Sixty patients with spastic CP, aged 2 to 4 years old,who had been given all the routine conventional rehabilitation at the Rehabilitation Department of the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January 2011 to December 2013 were randomly divided into AIT treatment group (30 cases) and control group without AIT (30 cases), all patients were investigated by using Gesell Developmental Scales and the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM)-66 before and after 3-month therapy, and the changes in the regional cerebral blood flow of children (rCBF) were detected by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) before and after treatment.Results The scores of development quotient (DQ) of the treatment group after the AIT in areas of adaptive behavior, personal-social behavior,language(52.44 ± 13.43,52.07 ± 11.57,57.19 ± 6.18) were higher than those of the control group (45.09 ± 11.02,45.86 ± 9.66,53.44 ± 5.49), and the differences between the 2 groups were greatly significant statistically(t =-2.32,-2.26,-2.49, all P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant difference in DQ of gross motor, fine motor and scores on the GMFM-66 in the treatment group before and after treatment [40.40 ± 8.57,49.50 ± 14.20, (55.81 ±8.72) scores vs 44.03 ±11.90,46.34±9.78,(58.81 ±7.86) scores,t=-1.42,1.08,-0.52,all P＞ 0.05].SPECT detected abnormalities in all patients (100.00％) both in the 2 groups, compared with the control group,the rCBF was improved significantly after treatment in the treatment group (86.67％) (x2 =35.49 ,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The treatment of AIT can greatly improve the intelligence, language development and the brain function in children with spastic CP.It is an effective adjutant of rehabilitation method for children with spastic CP to improve intelligence and language development, and has less influence on motor function.

Objective To evaluate the value and limitation of MRI in the diagnosis of meningovascular neurosyphilis. Methods Five cases of neurosyphilis confirmed by clinical history/laboratory were examined with MRI (3 plain MRI, 2 enhanced MRI). The results of blood and CSF TPPA/RPR were positive and HIV was negative. Results Abnormal signals were demonstrated in the temporal lobe in 3 cases, and infarction was revealed in the basal ganglion and periventricular white matter in another 2 cases. There was no marked contrast enhancement in the 2 cases. Conclusion Meningovascular neurosyphilis has no characteristic features on MRI, but MRI is an effective method in delineating the size, range, and characters of neurosyphilis, and it is also an useful modality to follow-up after antibiotic therapy.

ObjectiveTo discuss the relationship between patella location and chondromalacia patella,explore its mechanism and clinical significance.Methods Knee joint MRI was performed in 1052 patients (506 men and 546 female).Among them,there were 299 patients( 100 men and 199 female)with chondromalacia patella.They were divide into the group of 1-19,the group of 20-39,the group of 40-59 years old and the group of older than 60 years to compute the positive rate respectively.Insall-Salvati method was used to measure the length of chondromalacia ligaments(L) and the length of chondromalacia path(P).The relationship between patella location and chondromalacia was tested by using t test and x2 test.ResultsThe total positive rate of chondromalacia patella was 28.4％ (299/1052).In female it was 36.4％ (199/546) and in men was 19.8％ (100/506).The group of 1-19 years old had 16 patients ( 16.8％,16/95).The group of 20-39 years old had 71 patients( 17.9％,71/396).The group of 40-59 years old had 116 patients ( 33.2％,116/349 ).The group of older than 60 years had 96 patients (45.3％,96/212).The positive rate of chondromalacia patella increased with age.The L/P value of normal group and chondromalacia patella group were 1.15 ±0.15 and 1.24 ±0.17 respectively.The L/P value of normal group of men and women were 1.13 ± 0.15 and 1.17 ± 0.14 respectively.The L/P value of chondromalacia patella group of men and women were 1.20 ±0.17 and 1.26 ±0.16 respectively.The InsallSalvati index of age groups showed significant differences.The L/P value of pathological changes group and normal group of 1-19 years old were 1.38 ± 0.25 and 1.24 ± 0.16 respectively.The L/P value of pathological changes group and normal group of 20-39 years old were 1.24 ± 0.17 and 1.15 ± 0.16 respectively.The L/P value of pathological changes group and normal group of 40-59 years old were 1.24 ±0.16 and 1.12 ±0.12 respectively.The L/p value of pathological changes group and normal group of older than 60 years were 1.21 ±0.16 and 1.12 ±0.12 respectively.All of them had significant differences (P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsThe positive rate of chondromalacia patella for female is higher than that for men,which also increases with age.High patella location is relevant to chondromalacia patella.

Artificial liver support system (ALSS),as a means of bridging patients with liver failure to transplantation,has been widely used at home and abroad.However,clinical trails show that different ALSS may have different therapeutic effects.This review briefly introduces the widely-used non-biological liver support technologies and extensively-studied biological liver support technologies,and tries to give an overview on their impact on biochemical markers and survival.

Objective To investigate whether emergency rooms in major general public hospitals are reasonably designed and convenient for patients. Methods 78 major public hospitals were selected from all over China, except Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, for emergency room convenience analysis. The standards in use were the "Standards of Hospitals" of Joint commission International Accreditation. Results The investigation found in such hospitals the following: poor road conditions outside the clinic and insufficient guides in the clinic; long-than-expected distance (normally over 50 meters) from ER to imaging departments (such as X-ray and CT scan service); ERs in provincial capital cities are significantly more convenient than those in non-capital cities; distance from ERs to CT service is significantly shorter in hospitals in eastern China than those middle and western China. Conclusions Parameters on ER's service quality from "Standards of Hospitals" could serve as a guideline to emergency medicine in China. ERs in China need to improve with conspicuous ER signs, unblocked passageways, and convenient access to inspection departments.

Objective To explore the abnormal inflammatory cytokine profile of salpingitic infertility by means of cytometric bead assay(CBA). Methods To assay representative inflammatory cytokines of 40 patients of salpingitic infertility(PSI) and 40 healthy control by CBA, and compared 30 samples of serum with peritoneal fluid collected from identical subject. Results Experiment data displayed that in PSI the Th lymphocytes were decreased significantly (t =2. 1236,P <0. 05), Ts lymphocytes increased markedly, and the ratio of Th/Ts markedly decreased ( t = 2. 8392, P < 0. 01 ), compared with those of healthy control.(Pre-)inflammatory eytokines (IL-8, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α) were all significantly higher than those of healthy controls ( t = 4. 9302,5. 5449,3. 4975,5. 6623, respectively, all P < 0. 01 ) ; while anti-inflammatory cytokines ( IL-10, IL-12 ), also increased markedly ( t = 5. 3428,5.9847, respectively, all P < 0. 01 ).Beside IL-10, all other cytokine concentrations presented in serum were higher than that of peritoneal fluid;IL-8(t =2.2113,P <0.05),IL-llS(t =2.9756,P <0.01), IL-6(t =2.3298,P <0.05), TNF-α (t =3. 2895, P < 0. 05 ), IL-12 ( t = 3. 3281, P < 0. 05 ), implying more sensitive of serum samples. Conclusion PSI displayed extensive disorders of the inflammatory cytokine network, CBA can be used to probe the disharmony condition at high through-out and high sensitivity.
