Objective To observe the influence of early postoperative feeding in the healing of intestinal anastomosis in rabbits,and to clarify preliminarily the relationships between early postoperative feeding after gastrointestinal surgery and gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula formation and healing time in rabbits.Methods 48 rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, then they were treated with gastrointestinal anastomosis.The rabbits in experimental group were fed with liquid diet 24 h after operation,and the rabbits in control group were fed nothing after operation and supplied by total parenteral nutrition.Two rabbits of each group were selected for exploratory laparotomy on the 3rd,5th,7th,10th and 15th day after operation,and the healing rate of anastomosis,the anastomotic bursting pressure,the anastomotic breaking strength,and the hychoxyproline level of anastomosis were observed.Results The healing rate of anastomosis in control group was 91.6%(22/24), and the healing rate of anastomosis in experimental group was 95.8%(23/24),there was no significant difference between two groups(P>0.05).The anastomotic bursting pressures of the rabbits in two groups were decreased remarkably at the 72nd hour after operation,which was the lowest point,and they were increased remarkably on the 5th day after operation,but the anastomic bursting pressure in experimental group was a little lower than that in control group,and it reached the peak on the 7th day after operation in control group. On the 10th day after operation,the anastomic bursting pressure in control group was a little lower than that on the 7th day after operation,but the anastomic bursting pressure in experimental group reached the peak.There were no significant differences of anastomic bursting pressure at different time points between two groups(P>0.05).The anastomotic breaking strength had no significant difference between two groups at the 72nd hour after operation,both of them reached the lowest points,however the anastomtic breaking strengths in two groups were increased remarkably on the 10th day after operation,and reached the peaks.but there were no significant differences of anastomic breaking strength at different time points between two groups (P>0.05 ). The hychoxyproline level of anastomosis:in experimental group was a little lower than that in control group at the 72tnd hour after operation,and both of them reached the peaks on the 7th day after operation;but there were no significant differences of hychoxyproline levels of anastomosis at different time points between two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Early postoperative feeding can not cause the increase of anasmotic healing time and the incidence rate of gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula.

Objective To investigate the indication, feasibility and technique of minimally invasive nuss procedure with thoracoscope by using double braces in the treatment of wide-scope pectus excavatum repairing in adolescence. Methods 31 patients including 24 boys and 7 girls, suffered from pectus excavtum were corrected by nuss procedure under thoracoscope.The average age was (15.32 ± 3.89)years (ranged, 14 years and 18 years). All cases were moderate to severe degree according to Hallar index with depression scope of 4 ribs or more. A couple of braces of two-point or multipoint fixation for thoracoscopic-assisted nuss procedure were used. Results The procedure was successfully completed under thoracoscopy in all patients. Double braces were utilized in 27 cases, double are bars were required in 4 cases, and multipoint fixations were in 6 patients. The postoperative hospital stay was 5-11 days [average, ( 7.48 ± 1.95 ) days]. The duration of following up was one month to three years. The perioperative complications included intraoperative hemorrhage in 2 patients, bar invertion with displacement in 1, and interrupted pain for two months in 1. All patients recovered after expectant treatment. Conclusion Nuss procedure with double braces for the correction of a large area of asymmetric pectus excavatum under thoracoscopy is safe and effective technique for adolescence.

Purpose To investigate the value of 3.0T MR T1ρquantitative analysis in early detection of disc degeneration. Materials and Methods Conventional T2WI and T1ρwere collected in 35 healthy volunteers (male 16, female 19) on 3.0T MRI, and the classification of disc nucleus was performed by Pfirrmann classification. T1ρvalue of nucleus pulposus was measured and analyzed for the relationship among Pfirrmann classification, segmental and gender. Results There was a significant negative correlation between T1ρvalue and Pfirrmann grade (r=-0.542, P<0.001). T1ρvalue in L5/S1 segment (94.80±26.60) ms was significantly lower than that in L2/L3 (117.18±25.64) ms and L3/L4 (115.52±28.53) ms (P<0.01), and there was no significant difference among other segments (P>0.05);there was no gender differences among the T1ρvalue of each segment (t=0.006, 0.042, 0.797, 1.022, 0.038, P>0.05). Conclusion T1ρ value is closely related to the degree of disc degeneration, and T1ρimaging can be used as an objective, sensitive and effective tool for early detection of disc degeneration.

BACKGROUND:Scholars have studied the three-dimensional finite element models of tibial plateau fractures with different fixation methods, but the research on three-dimensional finite element model of tibial plateau fracture fixation was not much. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical characteristics of external fixator for tibial plateau fracture by using the three-dimensional finite element method. METHODS:The tibial plateau fracture models treated with locking plate fixation and external fixator were established. Three-dimensional finite element analysis was used to analyze the stress distribution and displacement of two kinds of models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The average displacement value and the maximum displacement value of tibial plateau fracture external fixator model group were smal er than that of tibial plateau fracture locking plate fixation model group, but no significant difference was found (P>0.05). (2) X axial displacement value and Y axial displacement value were smal er in the tibial plateau fracture external fixator model group than in the tibial plateau fracture locking plate fixation model group, but no significant difference was found (P>0.05). (3) The stress of tibial plateau fracture locking plate fixation model focused on the junction of the screw and bone tissue as wel as the junction of plates and screws. The maximum stress value of tibial plateau fracture locking plate fixation model (173 MPa) was greater than that of tibial plateau fracture external fixator model (86 MPa). The stress of tibial plateau fracture external fixator model was scattered. Obvious stress concentration did not occur. The stress at the junction of the clamp and the nail and the junction of the connecting rod and screw was higher than that at other regions, and was a weak link in the clinical mechanics. (4) Results showed that external fixation for tibial plateau fractures had better stability and fixing strength as compared with the internal fixation.

Objective To study the adverse effect of house indoor air pollution on children respiratory system health in Lanzhou city.Methods A retrospective questionnaire investigation on 1 700 children respiratory health was carried out in three kindergartens,three elementary schools involving lower grade pupils in three districts in Lanzhou city.At the same time,the information about the home environment of the children and family background was collected.Applying logistic regression model, the influencing factors were analyzed.Results The over-standard rates of indoor air quality were from 12.4% to 43.8% in Lanzhou.In the non-heating period,the over-standard rates of formaldehyde,benzene,SO_2,NO_2,CO and PM10 in indoor air were 22.6%,14.5%,13.3%,12.4%,0% and 23.3% respectively.In the heating period,the over-standard rates of the pollutants were 27.3%,16.4%,34.6%,28.5%,32.3% and 43.8% respectively.Indoor air pollution was statistically associated with children respiratory symptoms and diseases,the related risk factors were someone smoking in home,house decorated,opening windows, ventilation,heating in winter,sharing bedroom and maternal education.The outdoor air pollution was one of the influencing factors. Conclusion Children respiratory diseases and symptoms are related to many air pollution factors,such as outdoor and indoor air pollution,personal characteristic and family factors,so to prevent and control indoor air pollution,a comprehensive way should be taken in Lanzhou city.
