OBJECTIVE: To explore the applications of imaging examination on rib fracture sites in forensic identification. METHODS: Features including the sites, numbers of the processed imaging examination and the first radiological technology at diagnosis in 56 cases of rib fractures from 163 injuries were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: The detection rate of the rib fractures within 14 days was 65.6%. The initial detection rate of anterior rib fracture proceeded by X-ray was 76.2%, then 90.5% detected at a second time X-ray, while the detection rate of CT was 66.7% and 80.0%, respectively. The initial detec- tion rate of rib fracture in axillary section proceeded by X-ray was 27.6%, then 58.6% detected at a second time X-ray, while the detection rate of CT was 54.3% and 80.4%, respectively. The initial detection rate of posterior rib fracture proceeded by X-ray was 63.6%, then 81.8% detected at a second time X-ray, while the detection rate of CT was 50.0% and 70.0%, respectively. CONCLUSION It is important to pay attention to the use of combined imaging examinations and the follow-up results. In the cases of suspicious for rib fracture in axillary section, CT examination is suggested in such false X-ray negative cases.

The study is to prepare taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules by melting and fluid bed coating technology. Clarithromycin and matrix materials were melted at a certain temperature, and then made into particles by fluidized bed coating. X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to identify the crystal and morphology of drug loading granules. In vitro dissolution method was used for the observation of the drug release behavior. The results showed that the drug particles size range was 0.2 - 0.6 mm; the crystal form of clarithromycin in the granule did not change; enteric-coated granules accumulated release in 0.1 mol L(-1) hydrochloric acid in 2 h was less than 10%, while in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer in 1 h was more than 80%. The taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules not only have good taste masking effect, but also have a good release behavior. It is expected to have better clinical application.

Objective To determine the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane in Chinese neonates.Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ neonates,aged ≤ 28 days,with normal body weight,scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia,were enrolled in the study.Anesthesia was induced with inhalation of 6.00％ sevoflurane in oxygen.The infants were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.The inhaled concentration of sevoflurane was adjusted to achieve the preset end-tidal concentration and maintained at this level for 20 min.Skin incision was then performed.The concentration of sevoflurane was determined by modified Dixon's up-and-down method.The initial end-tidal concentration of sevofluren was 3.00％.Each time the concentration increased/decreased by 0.25 ％ in the next infant according to the infant's response.Successful skin incision was defined as no body movement during skin incision.The MAC,ED95 and 95 ％ confidence interval of sevoflurane were calculated using logistic regression analysis.Results The MAC and ED95 (95 ％ confidence interval) of sevoflurane required for successful skin incision were 2.82％ (2.66％-2.98％) and 3.39％ (2.89％-3.89％),respectively,in neonates.Conclusion The MAC of sevoflurane is 2.82 ％ in Chinese neonates and lower than the present reference values previously described in foreign reports.

Objective:To analyze the reasons for unplanned resection of soft tissue sarcomas and explore the treatment strategies for cancer surgery. Methods: The study included 105 patients with soft tissue sarcomas admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University between October 2009 and December 2012. The average age of the patients was 52 years old. Among the patients, 65 were males and 40 were females. Up to 82 patients underwent planned resection (Group A) in our hospital, and 23 underwent unplanned resection (Group B) in other hospitals. Wide excision and radical resection were conducted in Group A, whereas extended resection was performed in Group B. General data, tumor location and size, resection margin, local recurrence and metastasis, and survival were statistically analyzed in the two groups. Results:The proportion attaining the margin of wide excision was obviously lower in Group A than in Group B (P＜0.05). The 3-year survival rate was significantly higher in Group B than in Group A (P=0.001). Within an average follow-up of 18 months (3 months to 36 months) in Group B, 12 patients died, including 9 with tumor metastasis and 3 with other diseases. Within an average follow-up of 23 months (5 months to 36 months) in Group A, 15 patients died, including 12 with tumor metastasis and 3 with other diseases. Conclusion:Compared with planned surgical operation, unplanned resection of soft tissue sarcomas often leads to inadequate resection margin, which results in a high incidence of local recurrence and an increased mortality. Thus, clinicians should attempt to avoid unplanned resection of sarcomas.

Objective To study the effects of Chinese herb extracts on cell proliferation and glucose absorption in intestinal epithelial cell line(IEC-6 cells) of rats.Methods The extracts of four Chinese herbs,including Herba Agastaches(HA),Rhizoma Atractylodis(RA), Cortex Phellodendri(CP),and Gypsum Fibrosum(GF),were made.Their suitable concentration on the cell proliferation in IEC-6 cells was determined by MTT method,and glucose absorption and the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase in IEC-6 cells were assayed.A method of real time PCR was applied to the determination of SGLT1 and GLUT2 mRNA expression in the cells.Results Chinese herb extracts treatment altered the cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner.Moreover,RA volatile oil(50 ?g/mL) and CP alkaloid(10 ?g/mL) treatment increased glucose absorption and the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase genes(P0.05).Conclusion The three extracts treatment,including RA volatile oil,CP aklaloid,and HA volatile oil,could increase glucose absorption and the expression of glucose transport carrier genes,but their regulative mechanism are not totally the same.

Objective To investigate the role of endothelial progenitor cells ( EPCs ) transplantation in rats with sepsis induced by endotoxin ( lipopolysaccharides, LPS ). Methods Sixty clean grade Sprague-Dawley ( SD ) rats with genetic background were divided into three groups according to random number table method:control group, model group, and EPCs transplantation group, with 20 rats in each group. The sepsis model was reproduced by intravenous delivery of LPS 5 mg/kg. Rats in control group were injected with the same amount of normal saline. EPCs were isolated, and cultured and identified were fluorescently labeled with the green fluorescent protein ( GFP ) adenoviral transfection method. The EPC transplantation group was injected with LPS, then a fluorescently labeled EPCs suspension was injected via the tail vein 1 hour later. The expression of fluorescent markers of EPCs was detected with both small animal in vivo imaging instrument and frozen section. Seven days after transplantation, abdominal aorta blood was collected to determine interleukins ( IL-6 and IL-10 ) in peripheral blood with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ), and the lung, liver, and kidney tissues were harvested, the wet/dry ratio of the lung ( W/D ) was calculated, and hematoxylin and eosin ( HE ) staining was performed to observe, the change in histopathology. Toll-like receptor 4 ( TLR4 ) mRNA expression in lung, liver, and kidney tissues was determined with real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR ). Results The positive rate of EPCs cells with double marking of CD133 and CD34 was 99.0% at the 5th generation of subculture by using flow cytometry. After the transplantation of EPCs labeled with the green fluorescent protein, the appearance of fluorescence indicated that EPCs were mainly localized in the chest, and a stronger fluorescence was observed near the blood vessels. EPCs transplantation could significantly reduce the inflammatory cell infiltration and cell damage in lung, liver, and kidney tissue in septic rats. Compared with control group, the expression of IL-6 and IL-10 in the peripheral blood, W/D ratio, and TLR4 mRNA in lung, liver, and kidney were increased significantly in the model group. Compared with model group, the expressions of IL-6 and IL-10 in the peripheral blood were significantly reduced after EPCs transplantation [ IL-6 (μg/L ):2.127±0.118 vs. 2.664±0.438, IL-10 ( ng/L ): 24.5±3.9 vs. 31.5±3.8, both P < 0.01 ]. EPCs transplantation reduced the W/D ratio of lung, liver and kidney tissues ( lung: 4.68±0.24 vs. 5.48±0.15, liver: 3.33±0.11 vs. 3.94±0.09, kidney: 4.08±0.20 vs. 4.84±0.21, all P < 0.05 ], and down-regulated the expression of TLR4 mRNA ( ×103, lung: 782±131 vs. 1 136±126, liver: 39.1±14.0 vs. 69.2±8.7, kidney: 52.2±15.2 vs. 83.5±17.1, all P < 0.01 ). Conclusions EPCs can enter the lung, liver and kidney tissues of the rat successfully after transplantation of EPCs via vein. EPCs transplantation can down-regulate pro-inflammatory process, help to recover the balance of pro-and anti-inflammatory processes, alleviate the damage to the lung, liver, and kidney tissue significantly.
