OBJECTIVE To discuss the risk factors of nosocomial infection in burn patients in order to raise their treatment level.METHODS Picked out the nosocomial infection and the risk factors in burn patients during recent three years,we then made the review analysis.RESULTS From 234 cases 46 patients were with nosocomial infection,the infection rate was 19.66%,the most common location was wound infection,accounted for 63.04%,followed by respiratory tract for 23.91%.The main risk factors were age(≥ 60 years),severe degree burns,a long stay in hospital,and the large-scale application of antibiotics.CONCLUSIONS As for the high incidence of nosocomial infection among burn patients,we must pay close attention to and strengthen prevention.

Abstract
Early rehabilitation activity is an important way to improve functional impairment in stroke patients. However, there are no clear standards and opinions on the optimal start time, dosage and frequency of early rehabilitation activity. It is generally believed that early rehabilitation activity should start at 24 to 48 hours after stroke, and individual programs should be developed according to the assessment of stroke type, severity of disease, tolerance degree and other factors. This review searches domestic and international literature related to early rehabilitation activity and summarizes the start time, dose, frequency and content of early rehabilitation activity, as well as the cognition and attitude of medical workers towards it, so as to provide insights into studies and clinical applications of early rehabilitation activity.

Objective To probe the curative effect of thiotepa and mitomycin C for the prevention of the relapse of pterygium after its operation.Methods One hundred and eighty-two cases with pterygium were randomly divided into two groups:one group of thiotepa(158 cases with 169 eyes)and the other group of mitomycin C (24 cases with 24 eyes) and a comparative study was conducted.Thiotepa was used through dropping on the third day after the operation(1∶2 000),while MMC was used in the same way during the operation and on the third day after the operation respectively(0.2g*L-1).Results In the group of thiotepa,the wounded skin on the cornea was repaired significantly more rapidly than that in the group of mitomycin C,and the rate of the relapse of pterygium was lower in the former group than that in the latter one.Conclusion Applying thiotepa by dropping after the excision of pterygium is a safe,simple and effective supplementary measure for the prevention of pterygium relapse and also effective for recurring cases.

Objective To study the characters of oscillatory potentials (OPs) of electroretinogram (ERG) after methanol intoxication in rats. Method The SD rat models of methanol intoxication were established and divided into control group, 3-day intoxication group, 7-day intoxication group. The changes of OPs of ERG were recorded in a dark room. Results The total amplitudes of 3-day and 7-day intoxication groups decreased approximately 50% compared with that of the control group, while the schedule de-layed approximately 16% and 61%, respectively. Conclusion The characters of methanol intoxication in rats included delay in schedule and decline in the total amplitude of OPs.

αB-crystallin is the structural protein of vertebrate lens, w hich is w idely expressed in non-lens tissue. As one of the heat shock protein fam ily m em bers,αB-crystallin possesses biological proper-ties of m olecular chaperones and anti-apoptotic effects. Multi-factor injuries, such as retinopathy, inflam-m ation and nervous system diseases, have a closely relationship w ith αB-crystallin. T his paper review s the research progress of the expression and m echanism ofαB-crystallin in retina and extraocular tissues and organs.

Objective To establish a simple , fast and economic total DNA extraction method to serve the rapid identification of model mouse genotype in large number of mice .Methods Three methods, i.e.phenol extraction, isopropyl alcohol precipitation and mouse ear boiling methods were used to extract the total DNA from ten C 57-rasmodel mice.The purity and yield of DNA obtained by the three methods were compared , and polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) assay was used to compare the efficacy of the three extraction methods .Results Among the three methods , phenol extraction was the best and isopropyl alcohol precipitation was the poorest in DNA yield .In terms of DNA purity , the phenol extraction was the best and the mouse ear boiling method was the poorest .All the three methods could be used to extract the total DNA from mice serving as template of PCR reaction for the mouse genotype identification .The time consumption of three methods are 12.5 hr ,13 hr and 0.18 hr.Mouse ear boiling method was significantly lower than that of the other two methods ( P <0.01 ) ,.The obtained total DNA can be stored at conventional -20℃for 7 days and 30 days later still can be used as a template for PCR reaction .Conclusions Among the three methods studied , the mouse ear boiling method is simple and with the lowest cost , so it is feasible for total DNA extraction in scaled genotyping experiments .

Objective To improve the gene targeting efficiency with C57BL/6 embryonic stem ( ES) cells.Meth-ods Three different genetically modified C57BL/6 ES cell lines, named TLX3, Ai3K and SL, were microinjected into ICR, B6( Cg)-Tyrc-2J and BALB/c mouse blastocysts, respectively.The efficiency was statistically evaluated according to three aspects:blastocyst collection, chimera production and germline transmission.Results None of the three ES cell lines was germline transmitted with B6(Cg)-Tyrc-2J mice as blastocyst donors, while it was achieved with both BALB/c and ICR mouse blastocysts.Compared in the aspect of blastocysts collection, ICR mouse was much better than BALB/c mouse (P<0.05), and the chimera production efficiency of ICR mouse was comparable to that of BALB/c mouse (P =0.115). As to the germline transmission efficiency, that of BALB/c mice is significantly higher than that of the ICR mice ( P<0.01).Conclusions The germline transmission efficiency of BALB/c mouse is highest among these three mouse strains. However, it has the disadvantages of blastocyst collection, developmental delay and zona pellucida fragility, compared with ICR mouse.Therefore, ICR mouse is also a good candidate as blastocyst donor for embryonic stem cell microinjection.

Objective To find the correlation between real best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and test-ing results of microperimetry and visual evoked potential (VEP) and to explore a newmethod in record-ing BCVAin macular disease. Methods Sixty-two patients with macular disease (macular disease group, 62 eyes) and eighteen healthy volunteers (control group, 36 eyes) had BCVA, microperimetry and VEP recorded. Results (1) By microperimetry, the values of retinal mean sensitivity and fixation percentage in macular disease group were lower than that in control group. The bicurve ellipse area in macular dis-ease group was higher than that in control group. By V EP, P100 amplitude under 0.5 cpd and 2 cpd in macular disease group were significantly higher than that in control group and the latency was prolonged (P<0.05). (2) In macular disease group, BCVAhad significant positive correlation with retinal mean sen-sitivity, bicurve ellipse area, macular central 2°and 4°fixation percentage, respectively (P<0.05). There was a significant correlation between retinal mean sensitivity and P100 amplitude (P<0.05). (3) multiple linear regression equation was y=0.053 x1+0.008 x3+3.897 (y was BCVA, while x1 was retinal mean sensi-tivity and x3 was P100 amplitude under 2 cpd). Conclusion C ombined use of microperimetry and VEP is useful in the assessment of BCVAin macular disease.

T his article reported a 37-year-old w om an w ho w as physically attacked by her husband, w hich caused her leg injuries. In the hospital a diagnosis w as m ade of fractures of the right patella and left tibia before she underw ent an operation of open reduction and internal fixation. B ecause the husband re-fused to adm it his fam ily violence com m itted against this w om an; instead he claim ed that her low er lim b fractures belonged to the falling injuries caused by a traffic accident. T he police assigned forensic experts to judicially judge the w om an's injuries. A nd the identification results of X-ray and C T show ed that the transverse fracture of patella had been caused by m uscular violence, and that both direct and indirect force resulted in the injuries of left tibia, and the fracture of left m edial orbital w all m ight have been form ed during the violence. T his article expounded the identification betw een the injuries of fam ily violence and traffic accident by the applications of im aging, w hich em phasized the application value of im aging techniques in clinic forensic science.
